300C 5.7L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 2,000 miles

Okay, Chrysler Corporation and its dealers are useless. I have a 2006 Chrysler 300c 5.7 engine rwd. All over the internet everyone is complaining of car stalling constantly. I was on freeway and engine just stalled. Car was a bear to coast over to right shoulder and was almost rear-ended by a semi truck. I then replaced the PCM and it worked fine for a week and the stalling started again. I start car in morning, put in reverse and it stalls.

I finally get the car moving and slow down for a light or slow down to make a turn and car stalls out. Then add insult to injury the engine bearing went. I have a new engine put in, the car had 115,000 at that point. So has new engine and pcm, then it starts stalling a week after new engine was installed and new pcm. I installed a new TCM and guess what that never help, the car displays code P0700 and U0100. Transmission Fault and Loss of Communication. I have new coils and new plugs also.

I spoke with Chrysler Corp 3 times made a case each time and they said will have a supervisor call and they never had, the dealer is a waste they want to replace the new pcm and new tcm at a cost of $2000 when they are already new. I have taken car to 4 different shops and they cant even figure it out. Everyone wants now to replace transmission and the mechanics cant find anything wrong with transmission. All the wiring and connectors from pcm and tcm have been checked and dirt free and pins all in good shape.

I am considering getting a lawyer and going after Chrysler. They lie on the phone and say they never heard of this issue even when I tell them how many complaints I found. OH also I had the fuel tank replaced on the x53 warranty recall and had the fuel pump also replaced and the car stalls. my whole car is almost new and Chrysler could care less. So here I sit two years of stalling, new engine, new pcm, new tcm, new coils, new plugs and NO answer Chrysler Sucks the Corporation, I will never buy another.....

Ever since I got the car in 2009, I experienced the extremely scary issues of the car stalling it seemed right after fueling up. While driving away from gas station, all of a sudden the steering wheel locks and car shuts down. I have to put in park and turn ignition off and then turn right back on while saying a silent prayer that no one rear ends me as I'm unable to drive car while in traffic! Then it started happening while taking turns, again wheel locks car shuts down while driving, I put in park shut ignition off and turn back on. I've owned the car for 10 years, religiously getting oil changes and whatever maintenance it needed and the stalling is getting more and more frequent and very, very scary, I drive everyday with my heart in my mouth from the stress that I will get killed and or I will get others into an accident because of this which no one knows how to fix after spending over 2500.00 in this possible fix and/or that possible fix and the problems isn't resolved and getting worse.. All the above has happened throughout years intermittently, too often if you ask me! But now this 2019 year, it's getting much, much worse as it's happening almost on a weekly basis!! Only now the stalling and locking of wheels is happening at intersections, or going onto highways. In other words the danger and frequency of occurrences is scary as hell! And why was there never a recall about this obvious malfunction!!!

Not sure what to do anymore. I've tried everything and spent so much time and money and I cant drive the car. This is very dangerous, the engine shuts of in the middle of the driving. I bought a new computer. Change every plug. We did so much again and again and don't know what to do. I don't drive the car, it is sitting on my driveway. How can the dealer get away with something like that. This is so dangerous, the last time I drove the car I almost got in an accident. A lady came on the right and my car just like that, shut off. I've been searching the internet reading every detail that people suggest. Did every thing possible nothing is changing. Keep spending money and there is no change.

WHEN IS THE END OF IT? CAN ANY ONE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!
