Electrical System Problems of Chrysler 300C - part 1

Car stalled after filling gas tank. I was driving through an intersection and had to stop for oncoming traffic, when the car stalled and would not immediately restart, it eventually did start after several panic moments of being stuck in the intersection while the light was changing to let opposite traffic proceed. It stalled 2 more times on the way home. Both times I was slowing the car down when this occurred. I have been fearful of driving this car again since this happened. I heard there was a recall from Chrysler for lifetime replacement of gas tank due to a possible control valve shutoff float failure. My vehicle has never had the gas tank or float replaced, but it does not show up for a recall when I enter VIN. What should I do?.

The oem starter ignited a fire under the front end of my vehicle. Upon noticed, I immediately grabbed a fire extinguisher, and I put the fire out. I had my two young boys in the car at the time when it happened and I urged them to get out of the car immediately my young son has a fear from now on on getting in vehicles. There wasn’t any issuing warning lights that prompted any awareness. Initially started the car to run and get the juices flowing - seeing the car was parked. There wasn’t any movement to initiate spark.

Car will buck/jerk at higher speeds, will also die at low speeds or idle, will fall on its face when trying full throttle, the oil light, check engine light, limp mode will flash sometimes traction control, esp will flash most the time the 2 lights stay on problem has been confirmed by 2 dealers. Puts my saftry at risk because engine will js die at 20mph I lose brakes and steering. Problem first appeared about the beginning of this year when my camshaft went out but wasn't showing a code for a month and a half then gave me a code since then ive had this problem vehicle has not been inspected.

Unknown, but based on what I've read and seen others describe happen to them I would say it's somehow connected to the park assist. But my battery loses voltage while driving, the car will start blowing hot or cold air which ever it prefers at the time without any heating or cooling system being turned on, the dash goes crazy the rpms, speedometer and everything else will drop to zero the transmission will start jerking and the service park assist warning will flash on and off repeatedly very fast then the car died while driving on the highway and refused to start even with a jump start. Replaced the battery twice in 2 weeks and the alternator as well and the car continues to do this randomly. No codes show up but the abs light, esp bas lights are on, the brake light will come on every now and then without the brake being pressed and the car seriously just seems to have a mind of it's own.

While I was driving the car, the car stalled on me at a stop light, its a safety risk and could caused an accident at anytime, yes its available for inspection. Yes the problem has been reported and inspected by auto shop and dealership. No warning lights it just randomly happened while driving, while I was driving the check engine light popped up then disappeared and 2mintues later my car power was reduced and car shutoff at stoplight.

Yesterday I experienced an sua incident and nearly lost my life. I was entering a freeway and began to accelerate my car. Suddenly I felt as if the gears kicked and the car began to accelerate on its own to max revolutions. I pressed down on the brakes to see if it would stop and there was heavy resistance. I took my foot on the break and the car began to accelerate and rev completely on its own and the engine felt as if it was going to explode. I luckily was able to jam my foot on the break and pull over to the emergency lane and eventually come to a full stop. From there I put the car in park and removed my foot from the break pedal. Again the car began to jump to full revs with the engine screaming. I turned the car off and on several times and this continued to happen. After waiting one hour I was able to start the car and drive 20 mph back to my home and I will have it towed to a repair shop shortly. If I panicked or was not strong enough to press down on the brake pedal, the car would have accelerated to full speed and I certainly would have died and likely other people would have too.

The alternator went out for the third time the car just died going down the highway the problem was confirmed by the dealership no warning lights at all we had the recall done once then I had to repair it and now it's out again.

It seems Chrysler doesn't have the correct fuel pump ! they sell my 3 different ones and all do not work. They even match it with the VIN! I can't get one to work and I spent thousands. A lot of others on 300 forums have had the same issue !! so many 6. 1 and higher that need that fuel pump but Chrysler seems to keep sending me parts and taking my money! please help.

While driving car randomley has m0mentary loss of power. There is a bell sound and then the car restarts, but it drops out of cruise control and sometimes has check engine light, or other dash lights. Usually lights clear upon restart. This has happened from Nov 2019 to present.

The air conditioning stopped working with only 20,000km on the vehicle. My friend has a new Chrysler with 200km on it with the same problem. Chrysler is not willing to pay for it even though its a known issue. Very poor service and support from them.

The 2007 Chrysler 300 was purchased new and has 13600 original miles. The check engine light came on 2 years ago, followed by all of the dash lights coming on then the car slows to a crawl. I took the car to the dealer and they saw that it had multipal faultsbut did not know the cause. The problem disappeared after it cooled down. Six months later samething. Last week 5/07/2019 back to a different Chrysler dealer this time but had it towed. I believe this car is dangerous in that if on the freeway or open road and can not pull over this could cause an accident. I do have documentation.

Vehicle suddenly lost all power while driving. . Brake, engine , steering capability, lights, air bag came on, lights faded and finally stopped in middle of road and cold not start again.

Driver's side doesn't blow hot air when defroster is on or air is on. I've already had to fix it 2 times.

The vehicle has had two owners in the same family and has very low mileage (66000). The issue began in October of 2018. While driving on city streets at 40 mph the indicators on the dash began flickering and making noise. This continued intermittently for three months but could not be replicated at an independent mechanic. Then in January of 2019 while driving on the freeway at 65 mph the same issue happened except this time there the speedometer went to 0 but the car could still be operated. The car was taken into an independent mechanic who attempted to diagnose the issue for over a month but had no luck. As instructed by the mechanic the car was brought to the dealership where it was purchased brand new in 2006. The dealership kept the car for 6 days in February of 2019 and could not diagnose the issue, charging the owner a $240 fee for nothing. As soon as the owner left the dealership the car again experienced the same issue while driving on the freeway. The car was brought immediately to the owners personal mechanic who has had the car ever since. The mechanic has since brought the car to another Dodge/Chrysler dealership in town who charged an additional $600 ending in no diagnosis. The car is unable to pass smog as now the problem occurs more frequently and is unsafe to drive. I have seen this complaint several times online and it would seem to me that Chrysler should be responsible for fixing or compensating the owners for an obvious mechanical issue.

Backup camera flickers and shows a mirror flip image of what exactly is there. It is no longer a reliable safety accessory. Many owners in different Chrysler car groups report complete failure and issues with their backup cameras. This is a constant problem.

The vehicle in questions backup camera flickers in reverse. It also sometimes displays the camera view reversed and without guide lines on screen. Multiple Chrysler 300 vehicles have these backup camera issues new, used, and pre-owned.

Vehicle blind-spot system has malfunctioned and the remote keyless system has failed. The blind-spot system failed over time, it would specifically malfunction during rain/snow weather events or after a car wash. The remote keyless system has failed over time. After the car has started I get the warning that the key has left the car when it's still in my pocket. It won't even recognize the key fob when held to the ignition button.

Engine and all electrical including lights shut off while driving at any speed. Will restart after slowing down & shifting to neutral. Have almost been run over several times! this has happened many times.

The modular for the back up camera is not working.

Screen turns black and green when on reverse or sometimes go black while driving, making certain controls like heated seats and heated steering wheel inoperable. The entire screen flashes with lines and flips between black and green. Issue happens intermittently, but more when putting the car on reverse instead of showing rear image it goes into a flashing green screen. Dealer tells me this is a common issue and usually they replace the entire unit which costs thousands of dollars. Issue has been happening for over 6 months and now car is 90 miles over the 36k bumper to bumper and had to open case with Chrysler to see if they can cover the repair/diagnostic.

My 2006 Chrysler 300c 5. 7l starting stalling after filling the tank and has progressively gotten worst. My car now stops while idle, at traffic lights, and has even stop while making a turn into traffic. I have taken it into the dealership who has tried to charge me labor to investigate the problem (thousands) but, ultimately claim that they do not know what the problem is. After research, I have found that their are thousands of owners with my make and model having the same issue. I also found that Chrysler's solution is to change the gas tank, which they claim should fix the issue. The dealership changed the tank under their extended warranty and this has not fixed the stalling problem. After doing more research I found that Chrysler did a recall on this same stalling issue for the pacifica Mini van, but did not include my make and model. The issues are found in 2005-2006 Chrysler 300c hemi 5. 7l engines. I don't understand how this dangerous issue has gone so long without a recall. Someone is going to get seriously injured or killed by stalling while driving in traffic. Meanwhile my car still has not been fixed.

All dashboard lights blink on and off and then headlights go off and interior lights and dash all turn off - while driving! this is extremely unsafe! it was dark when this last happened and I was barely able to pull over to turn the car off and back on again. This has happened many times in the past 2 years. When you turn the car back on it seems to be ok. But very scary and unsafe.
