On February 7, 2016, my husband parked his 2014 Chrysler 300 in a parking spot in a parking lot and exited the vehicle with the engine running. I was seated in the front passenger seat with our 11 year-old child behind me and 9 year-old child seated behind the driver's seat. All 3 of us were wearing seat belts. My husband walked across the parking lot and down the block. I was texting someone on my cellphone when my 11 year-old exclaimed that the car was moving. Without looking up from my phone, I explained to her that it was probably the illusion of a car pulling into or out of the parking spot beside us. She screamed, "no the car is definitely moving!" the car was accelerating backywards. I made every effort to move the gearshift, grab the steering wheel and hit the brakes but due to the size of the large console I could not swing my leg over to reach the brake. The car moved in reverse across the parking lot and struck an unoccupied vehicle that was parked on the opposite side of the lot. Thankfully, the car did not strike any pedestrians or occupied vehicles, as this was a busy parking lot. Our Chrysler endured significant damage while the damage to the other vehicle was minor. My children and I were extremely upset. We are very grateful that no one was physically injured but we were all quite shaken by the out of control car. The impact was such that it make a loud "thud" sound when it collided with the other vehicle and jolted us a bit. We were completely shocked that the car seemingly on it's own went from "park" into "reverse". my husband had time to walk across the parking lot and down the block before the vehicle started to move. The vehicle was long out of his sight before it started to move. This car is dangerously defective. We reported this incident to our insurance carrier the next day.

On numerous times I have no idea what gear the transmission is in. I park the car and think it is in park only to find out it is in reverse.as I am stepping out of the car it starts to back up. This is a dangerous design flaw by Chrysler Corp.there needs to be some sort of safety mechanism installed to make sure the engine is off upon exit.

I feel the gear selector on my 2014 Chrysler 300 is vague, confusing, and dangerous. It is electronic and pivots instead of moving one spot for each gear selection. If you park and attempt to shift from drive to park sometimes it makes it and sometimes it ends up in reverse. When this happens the engine does not turn off when you push the stop button and as you step out the car takes off backwards. Also when shifting from park to drive sometimes it goes past drive and into low, so I ended up driving for a time stuck in low gear and not knowing until you go to slow or stop and it feels like the brakes are stuck on so you start looking for the reason. I have hated this car almost since I leased it in December of 2014. I feel with the lack of a switch key to turn the engine on and off, and this vague gear selector this group of vehicles is an accident waiting to happen. I have tried to trade it in but I still have 13 months left and can do nothing. Please look into this...thank you...updated 03/31/17

The gear shifter on this car continually causes the car to not shift to the desired gear, especially when shifting from drive into reverse or park. Thankfully, I have not had any major accidents because of this defect, however, I have damaged my daughter's bicycle and my garage door because the car was not in park. This is a serious accident waiting to happen.

I have experienced several issues with my transmission shifting erratically at various speeds. This is a brand new car. I have it serviced several times for the same issue after I first purchased it in January 2015. They said it needed an software update. It worked and shifted normal for one day and after that I can step on the gas lightly and it shifts uncontrollably, from first to second and/or has trouble getting out of first or second gear and slams into third gear by a jolt into each gear. It's very dangerous at stop lights when I barely step on the gas and several times it jaunts forward quicker than expected with my foot barely on the gas. Or I can step on the gas peddle and it doesn't go or find the gear until a sudden thrust forward which has almost caused me several accidents. I have taken it to the dealer and will be taking it again and they don't have an answer why it does that. All they do is say they'll re-load the software and it doesn't help fix the situation. This is an accident just waiting to happen overtime. I'm at a stop light not knowing how the drive train will respond. Always alert or even just pulling out of the drive is when it will change gear unexpectedly driving it when it's not warmed up. Very very dangerous. Thank goodness I'm a safe driver. I can't even trust someone else to drive my car for fear that will get in an accident because of the shifting issues. This has been an issue for years on this model but never a recall on the transmission. Over 300 complaints and still nothing and the dealer can't fix the issue.

On 01-17-2015 less than a month ago. While driving home, the car surged/hesitated and seemed to lose power. I also noticed the check engine icon illuminated. I was able to move to the expressway shoulder and shut the engine then restarted it, but the check engine icon still was illuminated, and the shifter would not shift. It was locked. No P, R, N, D, or S. I tried to make a telephone call via the vehicle's bluetooth but all my data base was gone. It was working earlier in the day. I shut the engine and exited the car to make a cell phone call. When I re-entered the car I was able to engage the shifter to the drive position, but the check engine icon was still illuminated, as well as other instrument cluster icons were missing and some were present that should not have been. However the car would not move until about 3000 RPM. When it finally did move, it moved very slowly, relative to the engine speed. Finally it shifted to a higher gear and seemed to drive normally. I exited the expressway and drove around the residential area to re-assure myself that the car would get me home safely. It was late Saturday night and the dealer was closed. I re-entered the expressway to rerun to my home. I never knew what gear the transmission was in. Paddle shifters were inoperative. While driving home I the navigation map was intermittently glitching, instrument cluster icons some missing many flashing. Also no cell phone. The dealer claimed the problem was corrected, but the work order stated 181905A1 transmission control module, software flashed. I assumed the problem was corrected but because it took place only one month old car, I became apprehensive. They never mentioned anything about the electronic/tipm failures that occurred with the instrument cluster. At this time I had no idea what a tipm was ! slightly more than one month later my vehicle failed again that was a tipm failure.
