2017 Chrysler 300 C 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 8A)
5 of 7 people found this review helpful
This is my 4th Chrysler 300 and my first 300C. After shopping, test driving and comparing everything from a Volkswagon to a Lincoln I can honestly say you won't find a better, more luxurious, distinctive car for the money. It has the power to get out of its own way and deliver a comfortable stylish commute that doesn't look like every other car on the road.

I bought this my 300 last week and love it! Comfortable ride and so far am getting 23.5 mph average town and road. How great is that? :-) Rides like a dream and is easy to drive. Looks great to boot! I HIGHLY recommend this car! I bought the Velvet Cherry with the linen colored leather seats. Am sooo happy! Update: I've had this car for 1 year and have had to take it in for repairs 3 times. The warrenty that I paid $1,200 for is no good. My back wheels started rattling horribly. Took it into the dealership in Opelika, AL for repair which should have been covered with only 10,000 miles and 11 months ownership. They said... not original wheels and they would not honor Chrysler dealership in FL where car was purchased during a move after hitting a deer that totaled my last car (A Chevy which brand I should have gone back to) and I tried to get car wheels fixed under my "purchased" warrenty. They would not honor that either and I would have to pay $1,200 per wheel to get fixed. A friend told me to take the car to a tire place in Valley, AL which I did and they took off the wheels and put a small piece of cardboard behind the hubcaps and no more rattle. And, they did not charge me a thing. I called Chrysler customer service and they would not honor the warrenties either. I will never buy another Chrysler and would trade the car but my mother loves driving it. I'm currently driving her 2012 Chevy Acadia and she's driving my 300 (She drives alot less that I do). Long story short - I will never buy another Chrysler and do not recommend to my friends and family. It's a pretty car but without my car being wrecked or any damage, the wheels just started rattling and I could get no service from Chrysler or the dealerships. No wonder the company about went under years ago. :-) Update 5/2019. Sold the car. Just did not feel comfortable driving something that Chrysler and their dealerships will not stand behind. I’m now driving my 83 yr old mother’s 2012 GMC Acadia. It is solid and the Chevy/gmc dealership here in my home town in Al does whatever we need done to it at a reasonable price and this car has never had an issue. Will never buy a Chrysler product again and I do not recommend.

Absolutely the WORST car ever!

2017 Chrysler 300 S 4dr Sedan AWD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)

I would not recommend this car. Ever since the car was brand new the radio would not work, the brakes acted up and the sensors would work when they wanted to. The car was in the shop a month and a half. They were unable to fix it completely. Chrysler refused any compensation what so ever! Do not buy any of their brands! Their saying of wanting to make costumer a happy is a complete joke!

Toe 2 Toe with 2016 Azera

After already owning a 2016 Base Azera we traded in 2 other vehicles for this 1. We now have both being driven daily in our household and I can say they both offer a unique ride. 300 is built VERY well and gets decent mileage for its size. biggest thing this car has over the Azera is the AWD which makes it a beast. Outside of that and it's super American styling the Azera can keep up with it on dry pavement while offering a slew of features you can't get on the S model unless you pay much more money. This is a great choice however just make sure you really do your homework and really look at what features you want. Numbers on paper are nearly identical in the performance category with only a 1mpg improvement and a 1ft smaller turning radius on the Azera. Don't know why they went to an 8-speed transmission as it seems like a lot and the Hyundai can get away with 6 and keep up.... In the end it does it's job very well and makes you feel "snobby" when driving it which is what it's intended to do in my opinion. Again look around as this isn't the only option but a very good one. ***UPDATE*** 2020 JAN 8 After having the car for some time now I can say it's been a great replacement to the Azera with a few quirks thrown in. -Ride Quality *Ride quality is pretty impressive in this car. Somehow with it's crazy weight it manages to balance the stiffness spirited drivers like with the ability to absorb most bumps presented in the road. This coupled with the AWD system on the car provides a great balance for such a large car and I can see now why so many people like it. -Acceleration *When in normal drive mode this can seem mediocre. However, when you turn off traction control and put it into sport mode (using paddle shifters) this thing is impressive!!! for a V6 it has plenty of power in the midrange. - Room * You really shouldn't have to read this to know that this is a big luxury car with space to spare. The only complaint I'd say I have on this subject is that the back seats don't have nearly as much legroom as expected for a car of this size. Once you get to the trunk though you see that large void to fill and that makes up for it. Another minor issue is that it's so large that when you have just a few smaller items they tend to roll around and get everywhere back there. Not a huge issue but can be slightly annoying. - Tech * After owning this thing for some time now and playing with all the features and options it isn't bad. I know they took care of alot of complaints in newer models so I really won't even gripe about much outside the fact that the base model S doesn't offer any blind spot warning. with a car this big and mirrors that small you really need them here and I hope that they snuck this into the newer models. Something else that hopefully is fixed is that in the frigid temps up here when it snows or there's freezing drizzle/rain the defroster can't keep up with it without you being smoked out of the car. Because of this the wipers don't do their job and freeze up, causing you to have to stop and break ice from them after every 20-25min of driving in these conditions. - Gas Mileage * OK so this is a large car... and with my wife's habits of hibitually remote starting this thing it KILLS the gas mileage. if it weren't for that this thing would average somewhere around 27-28mpg's between city and highway. but because she loves a warm vehicle in the cold we average 11... 11 mpg's... haha. for such a large car 27mpg's average isn't that bad (I'm not including my wifes bad habits) and easily stays on par with the old Azera mentioned in the initial review while having AWD and looking sharper on the outside. - Maintenance and other minor issues * Outside of the normal oil changes and tire rotations this thing has been a real pleasure to drive 95% of the time. a few quirks you should be aware of when driving this thing. When you have your phone paired and are listening to whatever is coming through your phone, EVERY time you get a text message the car begins to break down who sent it... every time. If you have kids that don't know how to include everything in one message this can lead to a string of 10-20 notifications and become VERY annoying. Next is when the key fob begins to die and say dropping kids off at school, the car will notify you that the fob has left the vehicle (it's still in your pocket or purse or whatever) and you must then place the car in park, turn it off, turn it on and be on your way. Seems minor until you go to start the car and it won't start (dieing fob) and could become an emergency. my reccomendation is always keep a fresh set of batteries in the center console/glove box so you can change them on the fly. Keep in mind you'll need a knife or scissors to open the battery packages on these things. Overall this is a very nice vehicle with alot to offer at a very reasonable price. you wont be dissapointed.
