| I just purchased my car in late april it is now november. i didn't notice the brake problem which is a vibration when i came to a stop, until a week after. i figured i probably need new brake pads. one of my least concerns. but last month i began to smell gas. i thought it was just the other vehicles around me or the location i was at. i looked under the car and there's was no leak. i kept doing this when i smelled gas and nothing. last night november 6 2011, i filled up my tank to go out of town. when i was leaving to go back home from the long ride, the parking area smelled like gas! it was leaking from my car! about a quarter of gas leaked. this time i saw a puddle on the ground where the back passenger side would be. not only was this embarrassing but i had my wife and child with me in the car that i had to take home smelling this as well as taking the risk of blowing up! we did not have any other way of getting home, that's why i had no choice and took the risk. thank god we got home safe. this is just ridiculous. | |||

| 2007 chrysler 300 with 43,684. problem fuel cap leaking. not covered under warranty. the dealershiep galena chrysler would not pay for repair. call chrysler headquarters(ref# 19582516) said not a safety issue and i had to pay for the repair. the check engine light came on i took it to galena chrysler in fort myers fl. i had the same problem one year ago to the day, same dealership, said nothing wrong. i think fuel and vapors have been leaking for over a year with this car. i feel this is a major safety issue and should be looked into. i know it must be a problem, because no one from chrysler headquarters called me back or email. after 4 days in the shop i just had to pay for it. no matter how old the car safety problems must be covered by the manufactor. how me people have to die until we address the problem? | |||

| I purchased a 2007 chrysler 300 in 6/2/07 as a demo model with 954 miles on it. on the way home from the dealership i noticed a rough idle and also a vibration in my front end while maintaining speeds at around 45 mph. i had to put the vehicle in for service on 06/11/07 and it took until 6/21/07 to get it back. the front end vibration was caused by a bad torque converter, however once driving my vehicle i noticed the rough idle hadn't been repaired. then on 5 separate occasions when going from a complete stop accelerating to get up to speed, when the vehicle should be going from 1st to second gear the engine just wines and it takes approx 10-15 seconds to kick into gear, making it extremely dangerous especially when merging into traffic. i turned it back in for service on 6/3/07 and as of today they still don't know what the problem is. they have had a field service engineer from chrysler come in to look at it and he doesn't know either. *tr | |||
