This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
There were 2 separate incidents that occurred. The first one we were backing out of our driveway and the car just stopped running. We were unable to start it again after a dozen attempts. We had the vehicle towed to a local shop and when they got in the car, it started right up. We drove it around for a few weeks before the 2nd incident happened. We were driving on the freeway this time and the car just stopped running. We were in the fast lane and it was extremely dangerous to get off the side of the road due to heavy traffic. It again would not start and we had to have it towed home. Once it came off the tow truck, it started up. Something about it getting towed makes it start again, maybe the angle that it is in when it is getting pulled up on to the tow truck does something. I-??ve been nervous to drive it for fear it will break down on me again. We have tried to start it again to take it to a service shop but it will not start. There were no warning lights before either incident. The first shop we had it towed to informed us after we dropped it off that the car was too new for them to run for codes, so they were unable to tell us the issues.
Just recently purchased this used vehicle in August and the car has shut off a few times while driving. This is a safety issue. The check engine light does not come on at all.
Check engine light comes on, vehicle has no power, can't accelerate. Shows codes P0340 P0365 U1428. This is the second time this has happened with this vehicle! I was on the freeway and the accelerator pedal is totally unresponsive. Holding it to the floor kept the speed steady until I was able to pull off the side of the road.
The contact owns a 2018 Chrysler 300. While driving various speeds, the vehicle hesitated to accelerate and then lunged forward. The failure occurred intermittently and the automatic brake warning indicator illuminated. Southfield Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (28100 telegraph rd, southfield, mi 48034, (248) 331-9937) diagnosed and repaired the vehicle. The contact stated that the repair specifics were unknown. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 95,000.
