Chrysler 300c 2006, outer tie rod broke at 30k and again at 37k miles. I bought car new, and it always had a vibration dealer told me at all complaints there was nothing wrong and it was tires. Replaced/changed tires after 30k tie rod change, and it did little for vibration. On state inspection today, was shown that tie rod had 1/2 inch of play on replacement mopar part. Search online finds that this is a common complaint.

On June 11, 2009 I went in to have tires put on my 2006 Chrysler 300 at southern tire, lexington park, maryland. The mechanic called me to inform me that the inner tie rods needed to be replaced prior to putting tires on the vehicle, and that he had called the local dealership, park Dodge, Chrysler Jeep and was told that the part was on back order for 6 months and there was a total of 3,123 on back order. I went to the dealership myself the same evening after speaking with the parts manager by phone and ordered the part ( p/n 68028831ac) but was told the same thing. He informed me that I should call the customer care line at Chrysler for further assistance. I called the customer care line that evening to express my concerns and was told that because of the state of Chrysler I should understand. I expressed to ask a customer to wait 6 months for a part was unreasonable. I was told to give them 48 hours to make a decision as to how to help me and some one would contact me. On June 12th I arrived home and there was a message on my answering machine stating that Chrysler would not be able to assist me with a rental or loaner car because my car is out of warranty (92,000 miles). I called the customer care center and asked to speak with a supervisor. The supervisor informed me that they would have to contact the dealership and that she would call me back the next working day. I received no call. I continued to call around and go onto the internet in search of the part and to no avail it was not found. Chrysler has told me it is on national back order and they are working to get the part as soon as they can but there is nothing they can do for me. I drive almost 150 miles a day to work. My front tires are getting very bad and the left one is "coupling" according to the mechanic. I don't feel safe in the vehicle. Why are there so many parts on backorder and none in the country if this is not an issue with this make and model vehicle?.
