Steering is loose and makes noise over bumps. noticed this at about 40,000 miles and dealr confirmed the problem on myy 9, 2003. this seems to be an extremely common problem with this car and the their siblings. daimler chrysler certainly knows about this problem as it has been a point of discussion on numerous web sites. just search chrysler 300m steering problems and you'll see pages of complaints. | |||

I have a 2000 chrysler 300m and i have replaced the two front struts of the car about a dozen times and i have only owned the car for two years. i have seen my mechanic fix the problem each time and it is due to the poor quality of chrysler car parts. my front wheel has become disaligned 3 times to the point that the car was undriveable and had to get towed. my mechanic says each time i bring it in im lucky that the wheel didn't come off. i am afraid that the tire will eventually come off and that it is a severe safety issue and that chrysler should recall the part. *tr | |||
