Took car in for oil change and to have front end shaking checked out. Was informed that the front tie rod was defective. Since I had an extended chrysler warranty I took it to the local dealership for repair and found that it needed replacement but was not covered under the warranty. This is a 2006 vehicle with under 50,000 miles. Never had a tie rod go bad in anything else I've owned--and it looks like I'm not the only one.

I rented a chrysler 300 and discovered what I feel are two potential safety hazards. 1.) the cruise control is mounted just above the turn signal. When exiting the highway, I started to signal a right turn and realized that the lever felt too small. Luckily I moved my hand to the signal indicator. If I had lifted the cruise control lever, the car would have tried to resume the speed I had been using on the highway (65 MPH). 2.) the top of the steering wheel covers the speedometer. Drivers need to duck down to look through the spokes to see their speed. The wheel is adjustable, I had it at the bottom. I am six feet tall.

Dt*: the contact stated while the vehicle was parked, the clutch was depressed and all the transmission fluid leaked out of the vehicle. The dealership replaced a transmission seal. Also, the power steering fluid was leaking and the dealership has ordered a new rack and pinion assembly. There has also been a noise under the dash, but the dealership was unable to determine a problem.
