Car has approx. 42525 limes. Coming from trip, heard loud engine noise. Went to dealer, found pipe from catalytic to muffler burnt off. Discovered a kink in exhaust pipe that was there when manufactured and it caused stress on the bend from the muffler to the catalytic converter. Had to replace entire system from catalytic back. Not a cheap fix but only one that was available. Dealer did a star case # 101881957. But to dte unable to get any confirmation from Chrysler as having received this.

Driving the car under normal load, S tarted to notice a knock from the engine. Over the next few weeks it progressively got worse. Pulled plugs, checked oil. Gas, put a boroscope down the spark plug holes looking for engine damage. Finally had to have the car sent to the shop. When they got the motor torn down the bad lifter was discovered. Upon seeing that & doing some research there are quite a few posts on forums about the mds lifters on the 5.7 & 6.4 hemis going bad & destroying a cam. I have had oil analysis done on most oil changes through out owner ship but this wasn't picked up on from the last one. Not sure if it went out quick & destroyed the cam or if it had been happening for a while. Car only has around 75000 miles.

Engine cylinder #2 misfire, I work as a sedan driver for a limousine company and I'm experiencing problems with my 2014 Chrysler 300, took it to the repair shop because the check engine light was on, the diagnose was a misfire on cylinder #2, the shop replace spark plugs and coil packs, after resetting the check engine light the mechanic took the car for a road test and the engine light came back. After scanning the car again the same code came out for a misfire on cylinder #2. the tested fuel injectors and engine compression and everything was fine. I was told by the mechanic that the only fix is to replace the head cylinder. After talking to other drivers that own the same vehicle as mine, the told me that some of them are having the same problem, and 2 of them they did replace the cylinder head already. Due to the type of work we do we put a lot of miles on our vehicles, so far I 116,000 miles so I'm definitely not cover under warranty.

After shifter recall for park function installed: 4 days after install, while backing up from a parking space, car slammed into park violently, could not pull forward or backward without car slamming into park. Dealer could find no problem. 10 weeks later while slowing down at a four way stop intersection, car jerked. When I started into the intersection, screen on dash said transmission service needed, do not put car in N or P, or turn off car, continue to your...traction light and engine light came on. My car would not shift or move. People were swerving and hitting their brakes to avoid a collision with me. Trying to give car gas, and it going into park, finally got to curb. Called dealer, told to turn off car. It went to acc mode and shut off. Tow truck driver could not get car started, he used manual override to load car. Dealer did not diagnose car for 7 days, then said it was dead battery, could not find any problems. Picked up car, drove 37 miles, slowed down to merge onto a county highway, car jerked, and same message came up, same lights came on. Managed to pull off road. Turned off car. It stayed in run mode would not restart. Called dealer, had car towed. When car got to dealer, it started up, they drove it three blocks, said no problem, no code shown. Dealer says it is not the recall fix, I refused to pickup car, afraid to drive it. Told dealer take a 40 mile drive then around town. No word yet

I was driving approx 60-65 mph when vehicle lost all power, no steering, brakes or control of car. I pulled off road (lucky), restarted vehicle and it high RPM and vehicle not going anywhere. Towed vehicle into dealership where nothing was found wrong. In the mail I receive a P60 recall for the alternator which were ll these symptoms, indicating unsafe driving conditions. Great!!! not!!!! no alternators to be found. I was told to drive the vehicle as is. This happened several times and towed back into dealership where they see no issues. They insist I drive this death trap. I asked if they would put their family in the car and they said "no". so of course I say but you wan tme to put my family in that car? after two months of back and forth, I get a new alternator put in. I test drive with manager, all seems well until a week later. The vehicle hit high RPM 6000-7000 with no control over accelerator and car didn't go over 25 mph. Yes all of this with no rental from Chrysler, no help from them as well. So I continue to pay for a car I can tdrive. Lemon law unit contacted and filed.
