I purchased this Chrysler 300 in 2014 and paid cash 25,000 and only have 17,000 because I fear for my life to drive it. On several occasion my vehicle has stopped while in motion without warning and the gear slips from drive to park. While exiting my vehicle after I have parked my car slips into drive causing me to stumble. On two separate occasions I had to call a tow truck to aid me because my vehicle would stop with warning. Once while driving on a highway my car stopped while traveling at a high rate of speed and went into park on its own, I notified the towing company and it had to be towed to a dealership. While at a dealership I was notified of a defect and they stated they would fix it. On a second occasion while attempting to park in my driveway the car continued to put itself in park and while trying to reverse my car went into park. After several attempts I again contacted a towing company where they towed me to another dealership where they again attempted to fix the transmission. Again after 2 years I am still fearful to drive my vehicle. I have made attempts to contact the dealership to no avail. My vehicle continues to move from drive to park and vise versa. Please help I have no other means of transportation, my husband has recently been diagnosed with prostate cancer and I need this vehicle in order to work and take him to his doctor's appointment. At this rate we will both need doctors if I'm not dead first. This is my final attempt to get assistance with vehicle maintenance and repairs. Although the dealership has made attempts to remedy this situation, I continue to have problems with the transmission. I am completely terrified to drive my vehicle each time I drive.

Right side of the powertrain is having problems. The cylinder heads are not function as should be creating the car to misfire. The left powertrain was replaced cylinder head but the engine & powertrain as a whole is defective & is causing driving issues with the car. The car bucks (jolts foward) at idol & on the highway it putts feels like a transmission slip. It's not a constant steady speed. Making it difficult & scary to drive a long distance.
