I PURCHASED A 2015 CHRYSLER 300 IN MAY OF 2015 BRAND NEW; ON APRIL 18,2016 I SWERVED TO KEEP FROM HITTING A DEER IN WHICH THE VEHICLE ROLLED OVER TWICE. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER ABOUT THE CONCERN OF THE AIRBAGS NOT IMPLODING. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN CLASSIFIED AS 'TOTALED.' I KNEW BEFORE I HAD EVEN CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER, THAT THEY WOULD USE THE SENSORS AS NOT HAVING ANY PROBLEMS. I THINK THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD AT LEAST OFFER ME SOME TYPE OF COMPENSATION FOR WHAT THIS VEHICLE COST; A LIFE COULD HAVE BEEN LOST (SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN'T REPLACE) DON'T YOU AGREE THAT SOME TYPE OF COMPENSATION SHOULD BE GIVEN?
This will be my 3rd time having this [XXX] Plastic oil filter/cooler housing replaced and this will be 2nd time having done less than a 2yr time-frame... But this time; after getting the oil changed at Walmart today, my car was about to catch on fire from majority of the oil was running done on the passenger side of the car where the transmission sits and burning off of the Hot [XXX] Catalytic Converter! It's [XXX] shame that Chrysler/Mopar had more than enough complaints about this well known Catastrophic Issue and won't take any Accountability for it... That's why Dorman [XXX] and a few more companies had at least stepped up to the plate and created an better version, of the oil filter cooler housing. Not only is it better but is also all aluminum and doesn't warp or become brittle under extreme conditions from atmospheric temperatures nor engine heat! [XXX] which eventually manifest as severe oil and coolant leaks. The number of complaints regarding the Pentastar V6 oil filter housing and cooler assembly is staggering. See them here, at [XXX] . There have been so many complaints – with the OE replacements even, that Chrysler has discontinued the manufacturing of the Pentastar oil filter housing and cooler assembly. Even more surprising is that Chrysler has known about this problem for a long time and has never issued a recall.

WE HAVE THE ROTARY DIAL SHIFTER ON THIS CAR. IT REMINDED ME OF THE ACTOR IN LOS ANGELES WHO GOT OUT OF HIS CAR TO GET HIS MAIL AND HIS JEEP WENT OUT OF PARK AND UNFORTUNATELY PINNED HIM AGAINST HIS FENCE AND WAS KILLED. I HAD THE CAR INTO SERVICE AND IT WAS INSPECTED BY THE DEALER AND ALSO AN INDEPENDENT ENGINEERING FIRM. I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM CHRYSLER SAYING THAT NOTHING WAS FOUND TO BE WRONG WITH THE CAR.

This issue has been going on since February 2024. The vehicle will completely shutdown while driving ( no matter what speed I'm going ) it will say SERVICE THE SHIFTER and stop. The first time this happened I took (towed bc vehicle willl have no power since this a SAFTEY issue ) the Vero beach Chrysler dealership the vehicle to Commuter Cars in Port St Lucie which is the dealer I purchased the car from. They kept the vehicle for 2 weeks. I paid 644$ they said they replaced the shifter and that was the problem. 2 weeks later the same thing happened while driving , I took ( towed )the car to Chrysler . Chrysler charge me 200$ and said there was nothing wrong it was the safety recalls. 5 months later it happens again I take the car to Chrysler they charged me 1000$ and said it was some type of connecter . A month later it happens again I (towed) it to chysler they said the ECM shifter module had dried up coffee on it and they wiped it off and its working fine. They charge me 445$ said it needed a battery. Now it has happened again 2 months later and they are just now saying my ECM SHIFTER is bad. The service manager was rude and disrespectful. I have our conversation recorded. I said WHY am I just now knowing this after spending thousands of dollars towing this vehicle back and forth. My son and I could have been in a major accident because the car shuts completely down while driving. They never once check this and the car has been to them 4 times.

Blend doors keep failing. Keeps switching from cold to hot.
