1 Automatic Emergency Braking problem of the 2008 Chrysler 300

Failure Date: 11/10/2024

When taking vehicle for test drive about a month ago, the check engine light was on and after driving it, I noticed when ac was on and when off, the car loses power. When I go to pull out it has no power and I almost got hit in the side every time I would pull out from a busy highway. They had check engine light looked at and they said computer told them it was air valve leak or something like that. I had appointment for them to further assist and they said they could not find anything wrong. I can hear where the valve might be leaking at. The brakes are not good. I had to put on the brakes today fast and brake pedal acted like they were gonna skid out from under my foot. Brakes are new so why is it acting like I have no brakes and there is barley any acceleration. Something is going on and I don't want to be in a car accident just because our warnings are being over looked.

I purchased this Chrysler 300 new Nov. 2020 with 6 miles on it, this has been one of the best new cars I've purchased. March 1 2022 at 23,800 miles. I was traveling on ky70 around a sharp curve within advised speed, the car made a loud grinding noise at the gear shift knob under my right arm, the car seemed to be trying to shift gears my hands were on steering wheel and both myself and passenger had our seat belts on with doors closed properly. I drove the car home 8 miles with it grinding at every curve. I called my local dealer and made appointment for repair, due to car shortage don franklin motors 1147 s hwy 27 somerset, ky service told me that due to work load I would need to bring car in April 27, 2022 at 1030 hrs. I parked car and on 04 27 2022 turned car over to franklins service for repair. Mileage on car was 23844. Franklins called me later in day and said they ordered a alternator for it due the noise was from bad bearing. I stopped by April 28th at 1500hrs and car was ready. I asked about gear knob grinding and was told it was ok, noise was alternator. I drove away and noticed noise turning out of parking lot. I checked mileage and car still had same miles as it did when I dropped it off. I took back to service advisor and drove out of lot to hear noise he did! advisor told me that a 10-20 mph the car would be able to control if it went to lock up. I did not agree and needed it repaired, advisor told me a mechanic would have drive and hear noise and was busy today I was given a appointment of June 16, 2022 at 1030 hours over six weeks more without car!

3 Automatic Emergency Braking problem of the 2017 Chrysler 300

Failure Date: 09/08/2020

Rotors are warped per maintenance check which I believe is from the emergency breaking. 43400 miles from leisurely driving and brake pads are still good. When I'm driving downhill and apply breaks, car starts to vibrate. Then at times of high speed of 70-75 the blind spot warning light comes on and the side sensors stay on until I come to a complete stop.
