8 Wiper problem of the 2020 Chrysler 300

Failure Date: 09/30/2020

This Chrysler 300 is equipped with side view mirrors which tilt down when vehicle is placed in reverse gear. It is suppose to tilt a few degrees so that you can see noting is under your rear tires such as a small child or o pet cat, dog,etc. However this vehicle s mirrors tild down so far the only view you have is the ground area directly under the drivers /passenger front door. You could see a child or pet or even to safely back the vehicle up. I have taken this to the dealership they tell me there is no fix for this condition is this something associated with just this car??? or, have other vehicles had this problem??.

11 Wiper problem of the 2007 Chrysler 300

Failure Date: 12/22/2019

My car will outright just stop for no reason. I will sit at a light and the rpm guage will start going out of control and the car will rev on its own. Then I will start driving and ti will be find until I go to press on the brakes. Then the whole car will cut out. I'm able to get it to turn over again after two or three efforts of turning the key and pumping the brake. It has once done it with my daughter in the car, which I am not okay with. Luckily, we were turning into a neighborhood and not onto the highway into high speed traffic. It turned off and on about 7 times down the road before it started running properly again. It seemed to happen every time I would hit the brakes or attempt to turn. The car cut out like it had run out of gas even though there was plenty in the tank. All the lights on the right side (traction, abs, etc) came on and then disappeared once it started running okay again. I had my fuel pump replaced twice thinking that was the issue and it was not. Something is wrong with this car and it needs to be recalled before someone gets hurt and it's to late to fix it.

Pulled over and to find out my panoramic sunroof exploded. The sunroof was not open. Took it to Dodge and they said that they can't do nothing that I have to go to threw my insurance company. Called Dodge direct and they said the same thing. Looked online and noticed a lot of these are having problems even jeeps Chrysler 300, Nissan,mercedes. Can't believe they would not fix it under warranty. Knowing this issue is getting bigger.

14 Wiper problem of the 2014 Chrysler 300

Failure Date: 09/13/2019

Driver has been experiencing problems with backup camera since the car was purchased in 2016. Originally, the camera would just go in and out. A black screen would show up on the monitor once the car was put into reverse. This was mentioned to the dealership multiple times, but the camera would never act up when I was at the dealership. The driver was also told that an update would eventually solve the problem, which it did not. When the car is put into reverse now, the picture on the monitor from the back up camera is actually flipped on the monitor. So what is actually on the right side of the car, shows up on the left side. Recently when getting recalls for the vehicle taken care of, the driver found out that the back up camera was previously repaired in 2015. This was prior to the car being purchased in 2016. These problems were brought up to the dealership, telegraph Chrysler Jeep Dodge in taylor, mi. The back up camera was brought up to the dealership when the car was under extended warranty, now it is possible that the warranty has expired. This is a safety concern as the perception in the back up camera could deceive the driver.

I drove a circle around the apartment complex and the car begin to smoke. The 180amp alternator was smoking and burning up. I changed the alternator and replaced the battery. Now the car cranks and stay running but will not drive. No dash lights are working and I can not put it into gear. If I turn the wheel to the right or left completely then the a/c and dash lights n radio work but the car still will not go into my desired gear.

For the last few years the interior windows fog up real bad when it gets below 32 degrees. It is getting worse and very dangerous because I can't see out of the windows after driving a very short distance. The dealer has changed the blend door actuator and the heater core but this has not made any difference . They have told me now that they have no idea what to do because they can't find anything wrong with the car. I have a life time warranty on the car and I need to have this fixed because of safety reasons. I have checked on the internet and other people have this same problem so it is not just my vehicle. The windows clear up after the vehicle stops for a while. This only happens when the vehicle is in motion. I have tried all different hearter / defroster settings and nothing works. I have contacted Chrysler and they have been no help. They set up and appointment at the dealer for me but they offered no help at all. I called them back and they said that they would have someone contact me but that never happened.
