Chrysler
300

While driving my child to school a short while ago today, my car accelerated on its own and would not brake. I was attempting to stop for an upcoming red light. The car accelerated without me pressing the gas and the brakes went completely out. I was able to avoid a collision. This lasted for under 1 minute, then suddenly the car decelerated and I was then able to brake.

bought the car 04/27/2023 check engine light came on 2 days after purchase, got a code read at autozone it was codep0302 its a misfire in cylinder 2 only causes vehicke to go into "limp mode" loses power dies whike driving 3 occassions. ive paid to get ut serviced twice and its still not fixed , causing driveabikitt/ emmissions/ecu concern.

1. Engine oil cooler assembly started leaking, due to oil cooler housing plastic cracked from oil changes at dealership. Leaking engine oil almost destroying engine due to lack of engine oil lubrication leaking on to the ground from the rear of vehicle and on to the ground. Vehicle was taken to the dealership and verified that the component has failed and that Chrylser has known of this issue for sometime. 2. I have replaced the bad blend door actuators multiple times on each side of the dashboard, due to the unbearable clicking noise within the dashboard and not letting the ventilation systems change directions in the vehicle.

I have had the vehicle towed 6 times, the vehicle goes completely dead, with new battery, once the vehicle sits for a half a day there is no power to start the car. I have talked to several other people and have had similar problems. I had car towed to Chrysler dealer ship and they said they did not want to work on it? There should be a recall, I have had many Chrysler vehicles but never this type of problem with the electrical. If you park my car on Friday when I get off work, by Monday morning it is completely dead. I have had the vehicle to two local car repair and electrical shops to no avail. (both shop owners said this is a Chrysler manufacture problem) I can be reached at [XXX]. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

CAN C BUS: its a typical issue with the 2011 Chrysler 300. The main code for the CAN C Bus "U000200" after the scan tool, the issues found are ABS Can C Bus off performance: BCM (Body Controller Module) Can C Bus off performance, SCCM (Steering Column Control Module) Can C Bus off performance, Radio Frequency Can C Bus off performance. All affect the safety and driveabilty of the car. The car drives and in the midst of driving the car stalls in traffic, the car vibrates really bad, the car seems to lose power on acceleration. Please take a look into this, as this is a common issue with the Chrysler 300.

THE ABS, TRACTION CONTROL AND PARKING BRAKE LIGHT WILL ALL SIMULTANEOUSLY AND RANDOMLY ILLUMINATE AND DISAPPEAR. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY PHYSICAL ISSUE WITH THE BRAKE OR CONTROL OF THE CAR. I SAW THERE WAS A RECALL BACK IN 2012 FOR THIS POSSIBLE SITUATION BUT I AM NOT SURE IF IT IS THE SAME OR IF MY VEHICLE WAS EVER RECALLED. I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR ALMOST 4 YEARS. THIS ISSUE SEEMS TO BE VERY SPORADIC. WHILE STATIONARY AND DRIVING. SOMETIMES I WILL TURN THE CAR ON AND IT WILL BE THERE. SOMETIMES IT WON'T. IT HAS HAPPENED OVER THE LAST 2 YEARS. I LIVE WHERE IT SNOWS AND ONLY DRIVE THIS CAR IN THE WARM WEATHER MONTHS SO I HAVE YET TO LOOK INTO IT.

CAR BEGAN TO LOOSE POWER UNDER PRESSURE, ENGINE LIGHT WOULD FLASH. USUALLY WHEN COLD OR PULLING HARD ON A HILL OR PASSING. ENGINE RAN ROUGH, MISFIRING AND OUT OF BALANCE. COULD NOT CONTINUE TO PASS ON ONE OCCASSION; HAD TO PULL BACK, WRANGLE OUT OF TRAFFIC AND STOP VEHICLE. MISDIAGNOSED: REPLACED PLUGS, COIL & INJECTOR ON VALVE #5. DID NOT CORRECT. FINALLY DIAGNOSED AS BAD CAMSHAFT. VEHICLE HAS A HEMI. TECHNICIAN STATED HE HAS REPLACED MANY OF THESE ON VARIOUS ENGINES WITH A HEMI IN A FOUR YEAR RANGE. STATED IT IS A COMMON FAILURE ON THOSE VEHICLES BUT NOT LISTED ON A RECALL. THIS FAILURE IS A SAFETY HAZARD. HAVING EXPECTATIONS OF THE VEHICLE TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY, AS IT NORMALLY WOULD, NEARLY CAUSED ME TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. ADDITIONALLY BOGGED DOWN TRAFFIC AS THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT CONTINUE AT A SPEED OVER 45 MPH. TRAFFIC BECAME BOTTLENECKED BEHIND ME ON THE INTERSTATE UNTIL I COULD WRANGLE TO THE SHOULDER. I ALSO OWN A DODGE RAM TRUCK IN THE SAME YEAR RANGE AND HAVE BEEN ADVISED BY THE TECHNICIAN TO BE PREPARED FOR IT TO GO OUT ON THAT VEHICLE ALSO.
