The contact owns a 2008 Chrysler 300. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V352000 (Air Bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

Dealer is unable to order the recalled air bag. I had it in to be fixed a month ago, verified with dealer they had the part before I made the appointment. Took it in and they advised it is on backorder. Called 1q/10 and they advised they are NOT ALLOWED to order the part. What am I supposed to do?

I informed the dealership of ignition switch recall shortly after purchasing vehicle. The dealership stated " the VIN number shows no recalls". And that was it said there nothing showing up. I KNOW ignition switch is messed up because every time I would turn the car off I could still feel it running. I've had my car a year and now it will not crank due to ignition switch and now fuel air intake is also messing up and has caused cylinder 6 to miss fire. I have been without a vehicle for a month now and I need it fixed. When test driving the car, it would slow down as I was turning into a place of business and almost getting hit by another vehicle.

When taking vehicle for test drive about a month ago, the check engine light was on and after driving it, i noticed when AC was on and when off, the car loses power. When i go to pull out it has no power and i almost got hit in the side every time i would pull out from a busy highway. They had check engine light looked at and they said computer told them it was air valve leak or something like that. I had appointment for them to further assist and they said they could not find anything wrong. I can hear where the valve might be leaking at. The brakes are not good. I had to put on the brakes today fast and brake pedal acted like they were gonna skid out from under my foot. Brakes are new so why is it acting like i have no brakes and there is barley any acceleration. Something is going on and i don't want to be in a car accident just because our warnings are being over looked.

I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE, THINKING IT WAS GREAT. I TRIED DRIVING IT HOME, AND NEVER MADE IT. I LOST ALL POWER ON THE HIGHWAY IN FRONT OF THE SEMI. IN RETURN I DID NOT HAVE BRAKES, I DIDN'T HAVE STEERING, ALL LIGHTS TURNED OFF, AND TO TOP IT OFF IT WOULDN'T START AGAIN. I'VE REPLACED THE PCM, STARTER, ALTERNATOR, THE POWER DISTRIBUTION, ALL THE FUSES/RELAYS, AND HERE I AM STILL SPENDING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TO TRY TO GET MY VEHICLE TO WORK AGAIN, AND IT'S NOT SEEMING POSSIBLE. I HAVE 2 KIDS AND NOW ONCE I GET IT STARTED I MUST WORRY IF IT'LL HAPPEN AGAIN. THE CAR ONLY HAS 120,000 MILES ON IT. IT'S BEEN VERY WELL KEPT. AND NOW I'VE BOUGHT ALL THESE PARTS AND PAID ALL THIS MONEY TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. AND NOW I'M OUT OF MY OTHER VEHICLE, AND WITH THE CORONA VIRUS I AM OUT OF WORK, AND HAVE NO WAY TO KEEP SPENDING MONEY TO FIX IT OR FIND OUT THE PROBLEM. THE ELECTRIC LIGHT WAS ON I REPLACED THROTTLE AND SENSOR AS WELL. THAT DIDN'T FIX IT NEITHER.

TAKEN CAR TO THREE DIFFERENT MECHANICS AND THEY CAN NOT FIND SOURCE OF PROBLEM, EVEN WITH THE MECHANIC EXPERIENCING THE SERIOUS SHAKING WHILE BRAKING ON MOUNTAINOUS HIGHWAYS. INSPECTED BRAKES, TURNED ROTORS, REPLACED SUSPENSION COMPONENTS AND SHAKING STILL OCCURS. SOME PROBLEM ON THESE MODELS BECAUSE MY BROTHER IN LAW HAD SAME EXPERIENCE WITH HIS 300C. NOW CAR DRIVES FINE IN TOWN AND ON FREEWAY AT SPEED. 120K ON CAR NOW.

I informed the dealership of ignition switch recall shortly after purchasing vehicle. The dealership stated " the VIN number shows no recalls". And that was it said there nothing showing up. I KNOW ignition switch is messed up because every time I would turn the car off I could still feel it running. I've had my car a year and now it will not crank due to ignition switch and now fuel air intake is also messing up and has caused cylinder 6 to miss fire. I have been without a vehicle for a month now and I need it fixed. When test driving the car, it would slow down as I was turning into a place of business and almost getting hit by another vehicle.

PURCHASED 2008 CHRYSLER 300C ABOUT A MONTH AGO. INTERIOR HAS ODOR OF GASOLINE. I GOOGLED AND READ ABOUT THE ISSUE. SEEMS IT IS NOT UNCOMMON AND SOME FOLKS HAVE FOUND CRACKED PUMP OR A NEED FOR REPLACING THE SEAL OF PUMP. I DON'T SEE ANY FUEL SITTING ON TOP WHEN I PULL UP THE REAR SEAT. USUALLY SMELL AFTER CAR SITS FOR AWHILE THEN SEEMS TO DISSIPATE WHILE DRIVING.. COULD IT BE SOMETHING ELSE IN ENGINE? THIS IS AN EVERYDAY OCCURRENCE WITH THE ODOR.

FOR THE LAST FEW YEARS THE INTERIOR WINDOWS FOG UP REAL BAD WHEN IT GETS BELOW 32 DEGREES. IT IS GETTING WORSE AND VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE I CAN'T SEE OUT OF THE WINDOWS AFTER DRIVING A VERY SHORT DISTANCE. THE DEALER HAS CHANGED THE BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR AND THE HEATER CORE BUT THIS HAS NOT MADE ANY DIFFERENCE . THEY HAVE TOLD ME NOW THAT THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO BECAUSE THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. I HAVE A LIFE TIME WARRANTY ON THE CAR AND I NEED TO HAVE THIS FIXED BECAUSE OF SAFETY REASONS. I HAVE CHECKED ON THE INTERNET AND OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM SO IT IS NOT JUST MY VEHICLE. THE WINDOWS CLEAR UP AFTER THE VEHICLE STOPS FOR A WHILE. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. I HAVE TRIED ALL DIFFERENT HEARTER / DEFROSTER SETTINGS AND NOTHING WORKS. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND THEY HAVE BEEN NO HELP. THEY SET UP AND APPOINTMENT AT THE DEALER FOR ME BUT THEY OFFERED NO HELP AT ALL. I CALLED THEM BACK AND THEY SAID THAT THEY WOULD HAVE SOMEONE CONTACT ME BUT THAT NEVER HAPPENED.

MILES, BRAKES AND ROTORS LAST YEAR FOUR NEW TIRES, AND THAT DEALER SAID I WAS GOING TO NEED FRONT END WORK, I HAVE BEEN TO THREE DIFFERENT DEALERS AND DON'T FEEL I CAN TRUST ANY OF THEM . THEY SEEM TO FIND THINGS TO DO EVEN IF NOT NEEDED .

IGNITION SWITCH ISSUE IS STILL NOT RESOLVED. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE IS NO ETA ON WHEN THEY ARE GOING TO RECEIVE THE PARTS TO GET MY VEHICLE FIXED. I HAVE RECENTLY HAD ISSUES WITH MY CAR NOT STARTING AT ALL IN ADDITION TO THE IGNITION SWITCH STICKING. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL SHOP AND THEY FIXED THE IGNITION RELAY. AFTER THAT, I RECEIVED THE IGNITION RECALL FROM CHRYSLER. CHRYSLER IS REFUSING TO REIMBURSE ME FOR THE IGNITION RELAY AS THEY INDICATED THAT, AT THIS TIME, THEY CANNOT CONFIRM THAT IT IS PART OF THE RECALL (RELAY FAILED DUE TO CORROSION) AS THE REPRESENTATIVE WAS NOT SURE WHAT WOULD NEED TO BE FIXED IN THE RECALL ?????? CHRYSLER HAS ALSO REFUSED TO PROVIDE ME ANYTHING IN WRITING OF THEIR DENIAL OF REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE CORRODED IGNITION RELAY. THE REPRESENTATIVE WOULD ONLY GIVE ME HER FIRST NAME, [XXX], AND NO OTHER ASSISTANCE. SHE ASSURED ME THAT THEY WOULD NOTIFY ME WHEN THE IGNITION SWITCH COMES IN AND CHRYSLER HAS A RECORD OF MY CALL AND CLAIM. THIS IS NOT VERY COMFORTING KNOWING THAT I AM DRIVING WITH A SAFETY RECALL AND ONGOING ISSUES; NO ESTIMATION ON WHEN THE PARTS ARE GOING TO BE READY; LET ALONE WHEN IT WILL BE FIXED. BAD PART IN MY CAR AND DEALING WITH A COMPANY THAT WILL NOT EVEN GIVE THE COURTESY OF PROVIDING SOME TYPE OF DOCUMENTATION! I AM REQUIRED TO RELY ON THEM TO HAVE A RECORD OF MY INDIVIDUAL ISSUE WHEN THEY CANNOT EVEN GIVE ME AN APPROXIMATE DATE ON WHEN THE PARTS WILL EVEN BE AVAILABLE. UNBELIEVABLE!!!!
