Back left indicator blinks about four times then acts as if lamp is blown. Turn car off and start later indicator works but then after 4 blinks is out again. Replaced lamp. System still has electrical malfunction. Seat belts shoulder harness in all back seats inertia locks do not operate in emergency stops. My children flew forward with their car seats when a car ran a stop sign and I locked the breaks to avoid a collision.
When driving or not driving sun roof will not go close I have to push button a few times or wait a few minutes, check engine light will come on when starting car or driving down the road, when braking popping sound comes from left side of car and a little sliding, paint peeling off back bumper. These problems have been happening for 2 years now. Car at repair shop now for brakes.
Lighting is to dim, cannot see the road very well at night and there is no side vision at all due to the dimness of the lights. If an animal were to jump in front of the vehicle, it would not bee seen until it was directly in front of the car. If someone is walking on the side of the road getting ready to cross the street and the car is getting ready to turn onto that street, the pedestrian would not be seen at all!.
I purchased a Chrysler 300 year 2014 used from Chrysler dealer in mesa az. On 4/22/2015. The car was what we wanted and we also purchased the mopar extended warranty at the time. At the time of purchase no mention was made that the vehicle in question would not be safe at night to drive. I have had many conversations with dealer staff over last year and a half as to the problem with no result. Here is the problem when turning a corner at dark you lose all side vision if you are in an area without street lighting. Apparently Chrysler has built a car without lighting that lets you see anything that is not straight ahead. When I began to investigate this with Chrysler rep. As no one at dealership seemed to know about the problem we found the problem. You will see by the emails I have attached that Chrysler knows of problem. They even have an option to fix called steering directed lighting. However I am told it cannot be put on my vehicle. This is a major safety issue in that the vehicle is totally unsafe to drive after dark in an area outside of city lights. As you will see by attached emails I have tried to get Chrysler and their dealership to pay attention but they choose not to even test drive their own product. Also no one in authority from either Chrysler or their dealership has contacted me. Although I have been told several times they would get back to me from dealership. Anyone that would come to my house after dark and drive my car around the block would see that this car is unsafe. Thank you for any attention you may pay to this issue.

The headlamps, both low beam and high beam, are very dim. The high beams don't illuminate anything on the sides of the car, just shine higher and straight ahead ( tunnel vision). I had the high beams inspected at a state certified garage. The mechanic said the high beams were odd, but within tolerance. The car is dangerous to drive at night, especially on rural dark roads, because the visibility is so terrible. This needs to be addressed. Driving home after I bought the car in December 2014, fog conditions exacerbated the problem.
