Filed Apr 16, 2024 · Brakes, Electrical · LA

While driving my child to school a short while ago today, my car accelerated on its own and would not brake. I was attempting to stop for an upcoming red light. The car accelerated without me pressing the gas and the brakes went completely out. I was able to avoid a collision. This lasted for under 1 minute, then suddenly the car decelerated and I was then able to brake.

The ABS, traction control and parking brake light will all simultaneously and randomly illuminate and disappear. I have not had any physical issue with the brake or control of the car. I saw there was a recall back in 2012 for this possible situation but I am not sure if it is the same or if my vehicle was ever recalled. I have had the car for almost 4 years. This issue seems to be very sporadic. While stationary and driving. Sometimes I will turn the car on and it will be there. Sometimes it won't. It has happened over the last 2 years. I live where it snows and only drive this car in the warm weather months so I have yet to look into it.

My brakes go to the floor intermittently. I have to pump several times to get brake function back. I drive in stop & go traffic 5 days per week to and from work. Have taken the car to the dealer shop 4-5 times. They cannot replicate the problem. It is very scary & unsafe. I don't know what to do.

Chrysler safety recall p60 failed twice (the federal safety agency recall #14v‑634). Unfortunately today (less than 1 week after 2nd replacement) the alternator failed again leaving the vehicle acting erratically without power steering or power brakes or the ability the shift gears while driving kids to school. Thankfully it was on local streets and able to pull over safely. Sansone (chrysler dealership) has now twice performed this chrysler 300 safety recall p60 (electrical/alternator) repair without success. We have opened a new case with chrysler asking to have it performed at a trusted repair shop in metuchen and receive reimbursement. They have sent us the authorization. If chrysler dealerships cannot properly diagnose/repair/replace the safety recall problem/parts installed twice (last one last week) that failed again today, at no cost and without delay, dealer should send a vehicle to pickup the car (it cannot be driven more than a few feet before everything shuts down) and we should be permitted to proceed with a reimbursement option at a trusted repair shop. Apologize if it seems rash, but very upset of the potentially dangerous situation if it had failed on the highway at high speeds.

Tl* the contact owns a 2011 chrysler 300. The contact stated that the ABS warning light remained illuminated after a manufacturer recall, which did not remedy the failure. The alternator assembly was replaced by the dealer for a manufacturer recall and, months later, the ABS warning light flashed randomly and remained illuminated. Upon making a turn, the ABS brake light flashed. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer for further inspection and diagnostic testing. The contact was not experiencing any failures until the two recall repairs were received from the dealer. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was not available.
