Since I got my 2000 Chrysler 300M, everytime I go over speed bumps it shakes and pops. I also noticed everytime I make a turn it gives a loud popping noise. Everytime im going 25-35 mph it feels like my front tires are loose and shaky. Seems like its only getting worse.

My steering has a life of its own. Steering pulls hard to the right, almost hit a public bus. I've had 2 alignments and brand new tires, the problem still exist. The front end make a clunking noise and vibrates really badly. I've taken it to a Chrysler dealership and got the same response as other have with the same problem "unable to duplicate" the problem. I told them there is a problem. Im afraid of losing my life an risking others on the streets and highway because of this serious issue the no one wants to fix.

1) car made loud clunking noise when going over bumps and traveling at slower speeds. Had car looked at by 2 different mechanic shops and they couldn't figure out the problem. 2) finally took car in for a 3rd time and mechanic found the problem. 3)car needed new tie rods, sway bars, etc. For steering/suspension problems. Car only had about 50,000 miles on it. Repairs cost over $1000.

Steering is loose and makes noise over bumps. Noticed this at about 40,000 miles and dealr confirmed the problem on myy 9, 2003. This seems to be an extremely common problem with this car and the their siblings. Daimler Chrysler certainly knows about this problem as it has been a point of discussion on numerous web sites. Just search Chrysler 300M steering problems and you'll see pages of complaints.
