1 Front Suspension problem of the 2000 Chrysler 300M

Failure Date: 09/18/2009

I have a 2000 Chrysler 300m and I have replaced the two front struts of the car about a dozen times and I have only owned the car for two years. I have seen my mechanic fix the problem each time and it is due to the poor quality of Chrysler car parts. My front wheel has become disaligned 3 times to the point that the car was undriveable and had to get towed. My mechanic says each time I bring it in im lucky that the wheel didn't come off. I am afraid that the tire will eventually come off and that it is a severe safety issue and that Chrysler should recall the part.
