The vehicle was sold with an outdated battery and later experienced repeated breakdowns. During the first repair visit, the dealership replaced the battery and alternator but failed to identify the root cause of the problem. The vehicle was returned, but the next day it broke down again. Upon inspection, it was discovered that the wiring harness was severely burnt and melted, creating a significant safety hazard that could cause stalling, fire, or total electronic failure. The dealership later diagnosed a PCM failure, which was not detected during the first repair visit. The wiring damage and PCM issue were not disclosed to the vehicle owner by the dealership, and there was no explanation provided for the cause. The problem has been confirmed by the dealership during the second visit, and photographs of the wiring damage are available. The electrical system and engine control were compromised, placing the driver and others at risk of sudden vehicle failure while driving.

For the past two months while attempting to accelerate, my RPM will jump to over 3 while barely pressing on the gas. This issue tends to happen more when I slow down (but not completely stop, like at a changing light) and attempt to speed back up. My car doesn't accelerate very fast but the RPM will be very high. Also, while on the highway, going a constant speed my RPM will jump up and down. I've attempted to use my autostick to get the RPM to drop back down and it only helps occasionally. I've had spark plugs replaced, a new battery, a transmission flush, wires replaced for the throttle body (they were broken/burnt), my car said it had the wrong oil in it, so I got another oil change, I've had the transmission flashed twice. I've had 5 different people/shops look at my car (including the dealership) and none of them can figure out what's causing it, all repairs have totaled over the last two months since having this issue, roughly $1,500. The issue is still happening and this is my second chrysler 300c.

After my father spoke with tommy, the service manager, my car was repaired; however, he and I were under the impression that the car would be repaired through a safety recall notice 14v‑634 (aka p60) that had been issued for chrysler 300 cars experiencing similar issues.

The car shuts off while driving. This has happened to me at least 5 times in the past month so far usually in the middle of a turn. I have to put the car in park and turn the key in order to start it up again. It starts up and I'm on my way again. The issue is there is no warning like the car slowing down or vibrating or a dashboard warning light before it shuts down. I'm afraid the driver behind me will run in to me because of this. I've had a diagnostic test done today and the repair shop could not tell me what is wrong because they see no history of any codes coming up. They would need to see it happen. That would be hard to do.
