300C 8-cyl

  • 44,240 miles
My 2005 Chrysler 300C has only 44240 miles N it and not abused since my wife and I are totally disabled vtrans with special "dv" registration so we can be driven to the vtrans hospital for medical services. On sat8/30/14 while in the garage and not being used for at least a week, my car's stick transmission shifter was stuck in park and would not allow the use or movement of the car from the garage. The usaa tow truck carrier had to drag the rear end of the car out of the garage onto the flatbed truck to take it to the Chrysler dealership in waldorf, md, where all the warranty work has been done on this car from "day one!" I was told that it was the 2 cheap plastic pink switches on the stick mechanism that had to be replaced at a charge of about $250 to me and the tow charge also and this was recurring common "problem "with the car year and reported to Chrysler as a recall. I will initiate a class action suit if necessary under 28 usc in federal district court in greenbelt, md, for redress of any costs to me. It is a safety issue since in motion, this gear shift could not respond to any change in gear in any emergency and cause the driver to panic.

300C

  • 42,000 miles
I I have two Chrysler and both of them had the shifters freeze on them they recalled the covertable but not the 300C my friend called me yesterday he has the magnum and his shifter froze from what I is that almost all the shifters are freezing and Chrysler is not recalling then but charging the custormers to replace them besides the towing fee because you cant move the cars once the shifter freezes.
