My 300 has a glitch that causes me to put in neutral then back in drive I'm guessing because of a limp mode, I've had it worked on many times at the dealer in the 3 years I've owned it and spent thousands of dollars and not fix the problem. It done what 06V341000 said but my Vin is not effected they say

Stuck in gear or won't shift by model year
What owners say
Car operated as expected on 7/2 and was parked in garage overnight. On 7/3 operator was able to start the car but operator could not shift out of park. The car is stuck in park and cannot be shifted into another gear. There is a current recall for this exact same issues for cars with a build date from june 25, 2007 through september 21, 2007. This recall is named k39, and the letter is attached. The build date of my car with the same problem is october 11, 2006. The suggested override method did not resolve the issue (depressing pink lever on shifter assembly).
Transmission shift interlock latch broke. Product was subject to recall k39 on other vins but not on mine; dealer refused to repair. Chrysler refused to acknowledge issue. Vehicle will not shift out of park without disabling safety features. Failure left my wife stranded on the side of the road.

The 300c shifter was stuck in park and would not move. I left the car parked and later that evening, the shifter moved to other gears. This occurred several times, so I took it back to the dealer informing them of the occurrences. The service rep told me that was a problem that had been occurring with the 300c models.
The shift level is stuck in park. With the brake pressed, it will move right but not down into gear. If I take my foot off the brake, it will not move to the right at all. The recognition of the brake be depressed appears to be working. I was 120 miles from home so I took the console apart around the gear shifter and found a cable that I could pull backwards and then was able to shift out of park.

My 2007 chrsler 300c was driven yesterday without any problems. It was parked in our carport and now the transimission floor shifter is stuck in park. This is the same problem as described chryslers satification notification k39, the transmission gear shift lever interlock return spring hook. I find that my vehicle is not covered since my vehicle was manufactured in april 2007 and the recall only covers vehicles built between june to sep 2007.
My 2007 chrysler 300 is stuck in park , I took it to the dealership and they said this something that is not covered under warrenty , but is does happen alot. The problem is very to be internal to the shifter assembly. There is a pink plastic arm where the ignition interlock cable attaches in the shifter. This arm is spring loaded and can eventually break. When it does then you won't be able to move the shifter from park because the shifter doesn't know the key is turned on. The dealership want to charge to keep replacing it which mind you is not cover under warrenty. I have talked to people who have had this problem also.
