2014 Chrysler 300 Problems, complaints & recalls

Drivetrain axle fell off as I was driving down the road cause by defected bolts on prepeller The front propeller shaft may have bolts that were not fully tightened to the proper torque specification during vehicle assembly. Front propeller shaft bolts that are not fully tightened may allow the front propeller shaft to become loose and disconnect from the vehicle. Front propeller shaft bolts that are not fully tightened may be detectable due to noise and vibration. If the front propeller shaft disconnects from the vehicle, it may result in damage to powertrain and underbody components and may lead to loss of motive power which could cause a crash.

As I was driving my car felt like if it went on neutral. I almost crashed. Stopped. Then it would not come off of park. I kept putting it on drive and it automatically kept going into park mode. The car was still running though. And turns on. It still wont drive. Turns on but doesn't go onto drive mode.

Valve , computer in transmission stoped working , no communication.

My backup camera works when it wants to mostly not at all. It just flickers when I put the car in reverse. I really need it because of the blind spots. Also since the fuel issue was recalled and fixed my car smells like it's not burning the gas properly. In other words I can smell fumes.

I have owned this vehicle for 9 years, and taken it in for numerous oil changes and multi-point inspections. One item that is included to be serviced is to check and top off (if needed) the power steering fluid. Due to where the power steering reservoir and pump is located, the passenger side tire and fenderwell cover must be removed to access the two parts. This is quite a bit of labor for an oil change and multi-point inspection, yet the service rep assures me that the steering fluid has been checked, even...

The front passenger door panel has separated at the top leaving an open gap between the window and the door. It appears that the rubber molding was not manufactured properly and as heat from the sun warms up the molding, it deforms, pulls up and separates. The problem has continued to worsen over time and is approaching the door locking mechanism. It is also now possible for water to get to the inside of the door. This is a NON-MOVING PART that was defective at the time of manufacture, but took time to malfunction.

The car will consistently slip from park to reverse when you try to exit the car. You have to push the shifter into park twice for it to remain in park. Very dangerous, as it WILL be in reverse if you are not careful exiting the car.
