While on highway, my radio turned off and vehicle went into battery saving mode. As I proceeded to exit the highway, the interior and exterior lights started to flicker. I went to autozone and the car barely made it there. The car smelled like if something was burning under the hood. One of the attendants checked my battery and said the battery was drained, I had them recharge it. I had to get the car towed since the car was inoperable. I picked up the battery this morning and turned the car on, and all the electrical system started to flicker so I just turned of the car. I read in to the vehicles recalls and I noticed that recall #p6o is exactly what my car was doing last night. I called Chrysler today and they refuse to fix it due to my car not being affected by this recall but it obviously has been. Is there anything that I can do to make my car part of this recall? if so what steps can I take to make this happen? this is a safety issue that could of caused an accident and or multiple accidents since I was on the highway when this issue started, if not for my quick thinking the car could of stalled in the middle of the highway. I should also mention that while the electrical system began to fail it was extremely difficult to brake. On another note, the air bag light turns on and off all the time. I am afraid if we have an accident that the air bags won't deploy.

Vehicle has suffered failure of the air bag system on three separate occasions. The air bag light comes on intermittently for a period of weeks until it stays on permanently until repaired by the dealership. The first two times the dealership has said that the part replaced is the same as indicated on recall 13v118000, yet, my VIN does not apply to the recall. The current failure has not been duplicated by the dealership and thus they refuse to fix it. Further, the light was on the day prior to bringing it in for service, on 9/22, yet the dealership found no codes. They state that any time the light comes on, a code is stored that is not cleared until the battery is removed or the code is cleared by their diagnostic tool. Thus the finding of no codes stored is troubling, as there would be no discernible evidence in the event of a crash as to why the airbag system was failing prior to the accident. Chrysler has already repaired the issue twice under extended warranty, and I have paid the deductible for the repairs each time. They continue to repair the airbag system with faulty parts.

I purchased a "certified pre-owned" Chrysler 300s on 02/14/14. From the beginning I had to go to the dealer in numerous occasions due to too many electrical issues, including air bag light, seat belt alarm that will go off when nothing or nobody will be on the passenger seat. I had to take a video with my phone while driving for them to see that I was not lying and that there was an issue with the air bag light. Finally they changed something there and at the same time disconnected the alarm for the seat belt so it wouldn't go off. We asked several times if this may be a safety issue and they told us it was not. The car also has a rear shade that has to be repaired already once during warranty, and a second time when I had to pay for its repair. It is not working again since more than a month ago. The hands free system is also not working, and it has not worked right from the beginning. I had complained to them that my phone was not connecting all the time and they kept saying it was the satellite, the phone, etc. Now of course it doesn't work at all and I will have to pay $100 just for diagnostic. I called their 800 number for the certified preowned customer service and they said it is the hands-free module that needs to be replaced. This is also a very important safety feature I need working. I commute more than 53 miles every day and have conference calls while on the road. The rear view camera is also not working right. It works intermittently and again, this was an issue we mentioned to the dealer while the car was under warranty and they always had an excuse why that was happening. This again is also a safety feature important for the safety of the car. This car has too many problems that should not be happening to a car that was certified by the company to be in excellent conditions and that a year and 5 months later is in worst shape than my 8 year old magnum.

May 2014 my airbag light kept coming on I took it to the dealer and they charge me 306. 00 to repair the clock spring. Now on March the 26th 2015 the airbag light came on again. I took it to the dealer on March 26th and they told me that I needed to pay763. 44 for something with the airbag system. My car was boughtin 20008 and it has 59 thousand 700 something miles . I've never been in an accident where the airbag came out. So there has to be a defect somewhere.
I am terrified to drive my Chrysler 300 . They have over 3 recall on my car. Every time I am driving my car I'm watching the air bag light. Please help!!!! what do I need to do??? there no incident I just need help with my car. I'm worried about the air bag. Why did they put the 2. 7 engine in those car? they are the worst engines.
I bought my car used in 2010. The airbag light has always been on. I took to the dealership one year ago and he told me there was not a recall on it and it would cost over $450 to fix. I just reviewed the recalls on both airbags one dated 5/3015 and the other 5/2016. I just called safecar. Gov and she said there is no remedy yet. The recalls said they need to both be replaced. I'm printing page out and taking to dealership and hope they will replace both airbags as stated on this website.
There was really no events to this failure, it's just something that 2005 Chrysler 300's are known for. One day, for no apparent reason, the airbag light turned on in my car and I tried taking off the fuse to see if it was good, which it was, but nothing changed. I read online various forums and apparently the 2005 300's are known for that to go off because the harness in the steering module is too short and unplugs or goes bad. We had to replace that module which cost $33. 00 plus labor from a mechanic which was another $100. The dealership wanted $250, and the problem is a manufacturer defect.
Air bag light came on, brought the car to the dealer, they said it was a faulty air bag in the steering wheel. This car has never had the air bag deployed. They replaced the air bag for $690. 00. A week or so later the light came on again, brought it back to the dealer and they said it was the airbag sensor, to the tune of $263. 00.
Second time airbag light has come one; with barely 40,000 miles on the car, clock spring ad airbag computer had to be replaced; every time I go in the dealer for service, there is another Chrysler 300 getting a new clock spring; how can we tolerate airbag systems that last less than 2 years and the dealer wants to charge us$800 every time.
The contact stated heard clanking sound from the rear end. Contacted the dealership, and they said the transmission was going out. After they fixed the transmission 2000 miles later it went out again. He asked the dealership for a new transmission. After the initial time of fixing the transmission they didn't clean the transmission with a lint free cloth so it caused the transmission to clog up, causing the vehicle to stall. The second time to repair the transmission the parts will not be available until November 2005. The brake light comes on intermittently. . A technical service bulletin was issued concerning steering. The vehicle pulls to the right, after being fixed it pulled to the left. T he talked to the dealership about the air bag light coming on. They put it on a machine. He was told that there was a sensor that had to be replaced. They had to get the parts off the assembly line because they didn't have the parts to fix this vehicle.
Air bag light comes on and stays on occassioally.
The vehiclewas brought to freehold Chrysler for service for the engine light coming on, not shifting properly, hesitation, left and right side molding coming off, trunk latch broken and car pulling to the right. Freehold Chrysler stated they could not duplicate the problems and found no codes and the wheel alignment was done at a cost to me of $95. 00,molding and trunk latch was replaced. We then brought the car back again for pulling to the right about 1 week later and again the told us it was fixed. The vehicle was not pulling as much but still was. About 2 weeks later the car was red lining, not shifting and stalling on her. We brought the car to eatontown Chrysler in which they found a transmission solenoid to be bad and replaced it. We then started to experience electrical problems such as rear window not working all the time and air bag light sometimes flashing on and off while driving and again hesitation when stating from stop. Also the moon roof interior shade opens to about an inch after driving to vehicle for about a week. We contacted freehold Chrysler about these problem and the previous wheel alignment and made an appointment for may 3, 2005. Now its may 8th and we have approx. 20,000 on the vehicle and we are being told the wheel alignment was completed based on a service bulletin and at no cost to us, even though we paid $95. 00 originally, and the rest of the problems cannot be duplicated and there's nothing else they could do. I contacted the Chrysler corp. Service center at 18009921997 and spoke to numerous people in reference to these problems and was told to take the car to another dealership and there's nothing else that they could do.
