Used 2005 Chrysler 300 Consumer Reviews
3 shop visits
Its a great car, except, its been in the shop already 3 times, first time was a recall about the radiator, second time, "it needed a new muffler to get rid of a loud rattle noise" they had to keep the car for 2 weeks, now the third time "same raddle noise, needs a new exhaust, and sunroof seal is coming off, and automatic power windows stoped working", its been 2 weeks now, and still dont have my car back. It makes me wonder what lemon did I buy, since the car is brand new, and in less the 8 months I have had this many problems.
Still love the 300
I have driven this car for three years. Had a rear speaker and a key replaced under warranty. I paid to have a broken visor clip put in. Other than this, its been normal maintenance and new tires. This has been a great car!

On the right track
I rented this car for a week recently. I had heard the hype and was intrigued. Currently own a Saab and Bmw. Best features were drive train, interior space and styling. Was evident that Chrysler is trying to upgrade interior quality and I liked some aspects: the seats in particular. Suggest they need to keep at this as still below import competition. I would pay more for this car to to get improved material/detail quality. Examples: radio control knobs, steering wheel, door and trunk latches. Perhaps the 300c is nicer, but I suspect same issues. Trunk latch on my rental did not work and was very low quality. Could not close the trunk easily.
First Class
The only problem i had was that Chrysler didn't put the right tirer on the hemi. When these cars came out we had to purchase them with out own money. There should have been a recall and also on the air bag part that eventually short circuited and cost over $600.00. Beside that this is an excellent care i really enjoy my car.
