Electronic stability control/ ABS light/ brake light.. While driving the ESC and ABS popped on together, after cranking back up the vehicles brake light appeared, something is stopping the vehicle from driving normal. Upon stopping at red lights the car jerks, also it skids when making left and right hand turns. The car revs when accelerating but the rpms are reduced as if in limp mode. The car is very dangerous to drive especially two lane highways it gravitated towards the ditch this time I just could turn the wheel, because sometimes the wheel is very hard to turn.

Vehicle intermittently gets stuck in gear and gear shift lights stay on

Filed Jan 7, 2019 · Acceleration · 17,800 miles · AZ

While driving the car on the freeway the gas pedal pressed down and accelerated on its own. I was unable to use the breaks to slow down and the throttle control light came on. It did after a minute or two stop accelerating and went into limp mode but the throttle control light shut off. I now have the car in the shop but they were unable to pull any codes like it erased itself from the memory.

My 2015 chrysler 300s has a dial gear shift that will not go into gear. I reside in nd and thought it was the frigid weather. The cars dial shift was stuck and ii had my two children with me in the cold -40 temp and -30 windchill. I had to walk to get help and leave my kids in vehicle. After being stuck for 4 hrs, I tried it again and the shift went into gear. It never happened again until oct 20th at 10:38 am. The weather was nice but the shift once again left my kids and I stranded after parking at a thrift store. After several tries and 1 hr the gear worked again. I'm a widow with 2 under age kids and need a reliable vehicle and this is not it. The radio changes stations when it wants, and the heated seats and heat work when used. The heat on the driver's side works when it feels but the air does blow. There is just no heat!! For north dakota that's not good !! My car is christine or you built a dangerous unsafe car !! Now, I have to pay to have it fixed and the dial shift will cost me $400, the seats $300, and the electric problems are starting at $500 per bismarck repair shops, including chrysler!! I am taking my car to eide chrysler october 27th at 9 am and will have to pay labor costs with whatever extra they charge because this vehicle was built ppor and unsafe!! The vehicle was parked and off both times. When getting in to start it , the shift would not work. The first time was very cold, the second was a nice day. There's no rhyme or reason for these experiences.
