I noticed that when I drive my car it pulls to the right. I took it to the dealer to have it fixed and the serviceman said that the problem was fixed it just needed an alignment. I left the dealership and drove down the hwy and it began to pull to the right again. I went back to the repair shop and they said to me that the alignment machine said that it was aligned just perfect. So I took the repairman on a test drive and again it pull to the right. So back to the repair shop we went and they replace a bolt or something to that effect(tsb) and it still pulls to the right. I notice a lot of the 05 models have that problem, but it seems as though Chrysler has fixed the problem on the 06 and newer models. When you hit divot in the rd. The front end shakes and basically the front tires actually leave the rd. For a brief second. The problem has not been corrected yet and all that the serviceman tells me is that is the way the car was design.(which I doubt seriously) if that was the case then I and a lot of other owners of the Chrysler 300 wouldn't have purchase the vehicle.

I had to have the tires replaced at 30,00 miles. Took car for tires and was told I needed struts and shock. Took care to have struts and shocks replaced and was told I needed tire rods and a ball joints for passenger side. Dealer said the ball joint had been redesigned and I had to replace both or the car could not be aligned. They were unwilling to provide the ball joint for the drivers side. The passenger rear window will not work. And the power seat on the passenger side does not work. I will never purchase a Chrysler again.

Tie rod ends went out at 35,000 miles and again before 60,000 miles. Two sets, one under warranty one not. Having electrical problems with driver window, estimate over $400 - replaced tires before 60,000 - I "baby" this car and it still is not holding up! won't buy another Chrysler - ever.

The car never seems to hold an alignment. It gives the feeling that it wants to drift over the road (beyond the geometry of the road.) and sometimes suspension shudders over transition joints in roads.

- Kissimmee, FL, USA

The alignment was off on this vehicle and caused excessive wear to the tires. This occurred on all tires, however, the driver's left dt: Front tire was showing the wear indicators. The vehicle had only 16,000 miles on it, and was driven on highway roads. Called dealer, who said it was not their problem, it was the tires and not covered brand on the car. No repairs or corrections have been made. Consumer took to a tire shop dealer who noted this was not a tire problem but an issue with the alignment. This is still a problem at this time. Consumer felt this was a problem with the alignment as well. No noticeable pulling or steering on the vehicle with the alignment only the wear on the tires. This tires were the original equipment on the vehicle, but consumer believed this was again a problem with alignment.

Car was purchased new Aug. 2004, and has been pulling to the right and riding like a small pickup truck[ rough ] ever since and has been to the dealer on numerous occasions. Has been aligned 3times, once by a non Chrysler shop it has been checked by a mfg. Area distict serv. Mgr and a Chrysler engineer both would not acknowlege the problem fully tthis condition makes the car difficult to control and unsafe to operate in the rain and snow. Chrysler seems unwilling and/or unable to correct the problem. Are we to wait until someone gets hurt or killed in an accident because of these defects?
