Within the first year I had the vehicle each of the head lights failed. Still under warranty the Dealer determined that the fuses were bad and charged me $90 each time to replace the fuses. I now have an issue with the passenger side head light. Initially it was an interment off-on condition. Now it is continuously off. I have not had this one fixed yet. but I suspect that the fuse block is defective and is not securing the fuse (ie a loose connection), which would be evident.by signs of arcing between the fuse tang and the fuse block contacts. Minor arcing between the two contacts would diminish current flow between the contacts until the light would no longrer come on.

It is obvious that this 2019 Chrysler 300 has the defects that a recall was issued by the NHSTA about. My electrical systems have malfunctioned multiple times causing the vehicle to lock up and die in traffic. The power steering would go out. The car wouldn-??t want to shift. Anything and everything that could read information out wrong was going off. The check engine light. The brake system. Transmission. Etc. just everything was lit up on the dash. The car would lock and unlock on its own. The windshield wipers would come on and turn off by themselves. The transmission is electric too, and it would want to lock up when you tried to shift it to park. This car has truly been a nightmare for me. I was the second owner. It was sold to me by Crain Ford of Little Rock. I was never told anything about any recall.

The contact owns a 2019 Chrysler 300. The contact stated while her son was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle inadvertently lost motive power. As a result of the failure, the contact's son pushed the vehicle to the side of the roadway. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed a general electrical failure and advised the contact to take the vehicle to the dealer for assistance. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer, who confirmed the diagnosis. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 84,000.

This has happened a few times. First, I started my car, after being driven for awhile, then it immediately shutoff and the abs system, traction control, emergency brake, and other lights lit up on my dash and showed in messages -??service power steering, -?? -??service abs system, -?? and -??service electronic stability control.-?? Meanwhile, my power steering goes out, brakes, and air conditioning stop working with all the lights on my dash lit. Then, when you park and turn it off, it won-??t start again. Doesn-??t even try to start. This also has happened while driving and I had no choice, but to drive it or be stuck an hour from home at 1am. This not only puts others in danger, but myself with no brakes and power steering.

So, when I am finishing a call and I try to hang up, it freezes the screen up. When this happens the call counter on the screen is still going like I am on the call when I am not. I have to disconnect my phone in order to use it. Then I have to pull over and go in the trunk and pull the radio fuss out so that it will clear everything out and then I can reconnect my phone and use the hands free again. When it freezes up, I can change anything, none of the buttons on the screen will works and the screen gets really hot to touch. Secondly when I go to crank my car sometimes whether it is a cold crank or not it may a hitting nose and it sound like it is coming from the back left side. That can happen several times a day or sometimes it doesn't happen at all. This is a new car for me so I don't know why I am having these problems and I work hard to finally be able to afford what I like for it to give me problems from the start. I have reached out to the dealership where I got it from but haven't hear anything back and the has been happening for a while. Please help. So many dates so I am just going to put the last time it happened but the problem started late November 2020 when I got the car.

I was in a "at fault" accident in Sept 2020 in my new car because the instrument panel failed to stay on started glitching while on the freeway hit tire in the road. Car insurance went up because of the points against my record. The Chrysler Corp has a recall on the same make and model but not my VIN number. My car is experiencing the same problems as the recall. I need the insurance company to remove the points and sue Chrysler for this accident that was very dangerous. I have videos of the car still glitching while Im driving for a few seconds to a few minutes at a time. Driving at night with the instrument panel glitching is very dangerous and I need help.

Takata recall the (did) digital information dashboard stopped working after the car was off for 8 hours while I was at work, when I got off work I turned the car on and everything else worked but the dashboard wasnt lit up with lights/ I wasnt able to see the speed I was going/ wasnt able to see my RPM gauge/ I wasn't able to see my tire pressure, battery voltage, how hot or cold my engine was, oil pressure, oil life etc. I was forced to drive home after this occurred which was frightening due to the fact I couldn't see my speed.
