ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
Was on my way home from work and car completely lost power as I was preceding to go after stopping at a stop sign. I was LITERALLY in the middle of the road. Car wouldn't crank AT ALL. Engine started OVERHEATING causing smoke to disburse from engine. NO WARNING LIGHTS before this occurred. A big truck was coming down the road and I had to exist the vehicle. Luckily a car wasn't in the other lane so the truck went on the other side of the road. I was terrified! I called 911 to get a deputy dispatch to direct traffic around my car to avoid mutiple COLLISION. I had to have my vehicle towed. I never want another Chrysler again these cars are UNSAFE. I could have died what if my child was in the car?! I took my car to a mechanic to put on computer scanner and it gave off SEVEN codes ALL due to ELECTRICAL ISSUES! CAR IS APPARENTLY STUCK IN LIMP MODE IDK I'M SO CONFUSED AND DISAPPOINTED. I reported the issue to Chrysler recall line and they did NOTHING.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
My vehicle stalls when placed from reverse to drive and the check engine light blinks and goes to Eco mode which makes the car shake. I’ve had a tuneup, oil change, brakes, O2 sensor and spark plugs replaced and the issues still exist. The car also will initiate skid control without warning or pressing the button which slows the car down and causes the engine to rev above 3-6rpm

AIR BAGS
recall notice for passenger air bag was sent three years ago. Vehicle was brought to dealership and held for a week to replace air bag. Vehicle was returned with air bag NOT replaced. I was told to wait for a call when they receive more air bags and they would schedule for replacement. As of today, three years later, I am being told the air bags are still not available for purchase or replacement under recall.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Car will shut off in mid drive with no notice. I took it to the dealership multiple times and spent over $3,000 in repairs they still haven’t fixed the problem. I’m scared I will get into a accident or worse because this problem Continuously happens it has happened on the highway it happens on the street. I don’t know what else to do the dealership does not know what the problem is.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
IN 2018, THE CRUISE CONTROL ON MY 2012 CHRYSLER 300 LIMITED WAS ACTING INTERMITTENT. I WOULD PRESS THE BUTTON IT WOULD WORK AND SOMETIMES NOT. I BROUGHT IT IN TO MY HEMET CA. CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE CC SWITCH. NOW, 2 YRS. LATTER IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN...I TRIED IT A FEW TIMES WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY/IN-CITY AND IT DIDN'T WORK. LATER ON OUR WAY HOME, I TRIED IT AGAIN AND IT WORKED. I'M STILL UNDER WARRANTY, BUT IT COSTS ME $100 EVERY TIME I BRING THE CAR IN FOR A WARRANTY REPAIR; HOPEFULLY WHEN I BRING IT IN THIS TIME, FOR THE SAME PROBLEM THAT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO FIX, THEY WON'T CHARGE ME...R/JOHN...
