| I own a 2007 chrysler 300 touring with only 44,000 miles on it. my gear would not shift out of park. there is an override switch (pink ) that did not work as well. i got online to check to see if there were any recalls on this matter and there was not; however, when i checked online, i noticed several complaints and blogs about these cars with the same problem from 2005 to current. this should be a recall matter. today, monday, july 6, 2009 i took my vehicle to the shop and they told me that the entire gift shift assembly was busted. they said that it was a crappy design and chrysler has since made a little better design shift gear than the one that is in my vehicle now. i believe chrysler is aware of this problem and they should be responsible for recalling these shift gear and replace with the more improved design. *tr | |||

| Whenever the car (2007 chrysler 300 touring) is put into park without the emergency brake engaged to hold the car in place, it is very difficult to disengage the transmission from park to any other gear selection when restarting the car and attempting to move it. while i know it is good driving practice to use the emergency brake when parked, it is a must in this vehicle or the transmission gear selector will be very difficult to move. the problem has existed since the vehicle was new. i have not attempted a repair, but religiously apply the parking brake only after shifting into neutral, taking my foot off the brake pedal until the car settles, then putting it into park. | |||

| I bought my chrysler 300 brand new from dealer in august 2007. my first new car. the automatic transmission and torque converter are the problem. from day one there is intermittant :clunking when it shifts. park to reverse. drive to park. but the scary one is when i'm driving, a few times a week, sometimes more than a few times a day it jumps, really lurches. enough that at 40 mph, your head gets a good jolt. i've taken it to dealer three times. they replaced the torque converter about a year ago. was better for a while, now getting worse so it happens every time i drive, city and highway. basically, they can't fix the problem. they said because it's intermittant. so i had them keep it and drive home themselves. but it happened only once to them. well, i have the extended warranty. but i wish they would at least give me something back for paying full price for a defected car. they should have given me another car the first time i brought it in. | |||

| I have a 2007 chrysler 300. i bought it used on 6/14/08. within a month that i bought it, the car stalled on me. a chrysler dealership/garage was not able to find anything major except the throttle had built in debris. ever since that time, the car has not ran smoothly. most of the times, the car feels that it loses energy/power when i start to drive it (like when i start the engine and start driving). it also makes a noise when it needs to shift to the next power (it is automatic transmission). in 6/09-7/09, my engine light turned on, which the garage that i had to take it to that can repair any type of emission issues needed to replace a valve and then the light did not turn on anymore. even after this repair, the car continues to feel like if it loses power. i have regular oil changes done so i do not know what is wrong. i feel that there can be some manufacture defect; however, since i have complained about the issues to different dealerships, they seem not to find any problems. *tr | |||

| My chrysler 300 is 1.5 years old with less than 18,000 miles on it. it has been in the repair shop (dealership) twice for major problems. this latest one is life-threatening. the engine suddenly just stops. the car immediately looses power and coasts to a stop. no warning. the engine dies and steering becomes very difficult. i just spoke to the service rep and he says they can't find anything wrong because the engine light doesn't come on. this car is a real hazard and could potentially cause a serious accident. i've filed a complaint with the chrysler corporation but have not heard back from them. i will never buy another chrysler product. *tr | |||

| A few days ago my 2007 chrysler 300 was stuck in park in the middle of a shopping center lot on a hot az day. the tow truck said that this is the problem he gets calls for most with chryslers. he said that he carries a special tool to get them out of park. he said it is a little plastic pink piece that breaks. at the dealership thay new exactly wat i was talking about. when researching it on the internet i typed in goolge chrysler 300 and the first thing that popped up was chrysler 300 stuck in park in the search engin. the cashier stated it happens far to much and she wished chrysler would do a recall. it was three hundred and some odd dollers to repair since the car was out of warranty. they put in a new gear shifter with the pink plastic piece. they can't just replace the pink plastic piece. they told me this could happen again and it was under warranty for 12 months. im not happy about this and i will persuade everyone i know to say away from the chrysler 300 when it comes to buying a new car! | |||
