I have 130k mileage on my Chrysler 300 2007 model. For about 3months, I-??ve been experiencing fuel leaks from the bottom rear corner of the driver side just directly beneath my fuel tank, which also makes both the exterior and interior of the car smell of gas. I took the car for maintenance and the fuel tank seals were replaced after my fuel pump was changed. There was no visible fuel spill after the rear seats were removed and inspected but there was constant droplets of fuel from beneath the rear left side of the car. I don-??t know what else to do and what can cause this?.. besides, whenever I put fuel in my tank, I can smell fuel coming from the AC vents. Also, my airbag warning light has been on for a long time on my dashboard. Help!!!

K39 recall: My vehicle cannot shift out of park. It has a broken shift lever interlock spring hook...exactly like recall K39. However, I a confused why my car is not covered under this recall.

The contact owned a 2007 Chrysler 300. The contact stated that while her daughter was driving about 30 mph during rain weather conditions, another vehicle ran the stop sign and crashed head on into the vehicle, causing the driver then to crash the front of the vehicle into a tree. None of the air bags deployed. There was no warning. The seat belt failed to retract causing the driver to come in contact with the steering wheel. A police report was filed. The driver sustained bruised ribs, seat belt burn from the shoulder to lower part of the stomach, and some bruises on the face and back. The driver was taken to the emergency center in an ambulance. The vehicle was totaled and was towed to a tow yard. The contact called the emc auto sales dealer (919-263-1750, located at 10121 capital blvd #105, wake forest, nc 27587) and was told to call the manufacturer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The contact had no information about the other vehicle. The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.

While sitting in a drive thru line at a local fast food establishment I heard a loud bang, then steam came from under the hood of my car. Pulled over and parked. Called my mechanic to come check it out. He explained to me that the fan motor broke/busted and the bearings went through the radiator. Fan shourds we're all broke off. I have less then 100,000 miles on my car.

On Sunday 04/30/2017, I pulled car into gas station and put gas in it. When I went to leave after this transaction, the vehicle would not shift out of "park". the shifter will not release and go into gear. The vehicle is stuck in "park". diamler Chrysler has existing recall (K39) to address this ongoing, widespread defect in their vehicles (Dodge/Chrysler floor shifter recall). According to tsb/recall documents, the years covered are 2005-2011. However, the dealership service department told me that because my vehicle was manufactured 90 days before the recall period for that make and model, my vehicle is not covered under the recall.

At various times since I bought this car new, this vehicle stalled and/or violently shook while at stop light thinking someone must have hit me. When filling up with premium gas, the pump will trip and stop putting gas. I have to hold the pump slightly higher so that it will not trip. I could never use the pump rest for this car so that I don't have to hold the pump the entire time. We even choose gas stations that do not have ethanol mix. On Tuesday, 2/7/17, it shook and stalled at different times during the day while at stop light. On the same day, while in motion and making a curve on a narrow 2-way street, I suddenly could not steer the car. I stopped with my emergency flashers, turned off everything, and had to restart the car. We took it for service for same reasons and the dealer could not find any issues.

Gear shift will not shift out of park. I believe my vehicle is having the same issue as the K39 recall however because of my build date of 02/07/07, the recall only applies to vehicles built 6/25/07-9/21/07.

My 2007 Chrysler 300 will not shift from park, I contacted my local dealer and was told this was a problem with some 300 but I needed to contact Chrysler customer service, I called Chrysler and was told my VIN is not listed in the K39 safety notification, they can't help me out. I had to have my car towed to a local mechanic and repair made. How can Chrysler fixs some failures and not other?
