2006 Chrysler 3 Series steering problems

“AFTER FILLING THE CAR WITH GAS, THE CAR STARTS WITHOUT ANY ISSUES AND DRIVES OFF WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. AS THE CAR SLOWS DOWN WHETHER STOPPING OR TURNING THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF. IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN THE CAR VEERS INTO THE OTHER LANE BECAUSE THERE IS NO POWER STEERING. THE CAR HAS TO STOPPED BEFORE IT CAN BE RESTARTED. ALSO IF YOU ARE ENTERING THE INTERSTATE AFTER REFILLING WITH FUEL, THE VEHICLE WILL REACH THE DESIRED SPEED WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC, AFTER MERGING INTO TRAFFIC AS SOON THE DESIRED SPEED IS REACH AND THE MOTOR SLOWS, THE CAR MOTOR WILL SHUT OFF IN TRAFFIC. THIS SCENARIO WILL CONTINUE UNTIL SOME GAS IS BURNED OUT OF THE GAS TANK. AFTERWARDS THE CARS RUNS FINE. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THEY DID NOT CHARGE ME FOR THE INSPECTION BECAUSE THEY COULD FIND ANYTHING WRONG.”

“VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY STALLS WHEN SLOWING FOR A STOP OR ACCELERATING AFTER A STOP OR SLOWING DOWN TO TURN A CORNER. HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES AFTER BEING 'FIXED' BY DEALER. DID MEET WITH SERVICE DIRECTOR BUT HAVE NOT HAD ANY RESPONSE. NO POWER WHEN IT HAPPENS.. ALL INSTANCES ARE ON CITY PAVED STREETS. RESTARTS ON FIRST TRY. CHECK FUEL LIGHT COMES ON BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DOES NOT. DEALER HAS WORKED ON IT 3 TIMES AND REPLACED PARTS BUT IT HAS NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM. THEY REALLY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON.”

“VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY STALLS WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO STOP OR SLOWING DOWN TO TURN A CORNER. ALL POWER SHUTS DOWN AND CHECK FUEL LIGHT COMES ON. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON. HAS ONLY HAPPENED WITH A PARTIAL TANK OF GAS-NEVER WITH A FULL TANK - REMAINING MILEAGE HAS BEEN BETWEEN 75 AND 123 MILES LEFT. HAS ONLY HAPPENED AT SLOW SPEED. DEALER HAS WORKED ON IT 4 TIMES EACH TIME CLOSING TICKET AS FIXED EXCEPT FOR THE LAST TIME . HAVE TALKED TO SERVICE DIRECTOR ABOUT PROBLEM WITH NO RESULTS. VEHICLE HAS 123000 MILES.”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHRYSLER 300. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, AN UNSPECIFIED PART BECAME LOOSE UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. UPON APPLYING THE BRAKES, THE VEHICLE SHOOK AND THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE WHEELS SEEMED UNSTABLE. IN ADDITION, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED. JAMES CERANTI MOTORS INC (3064 US-82, GREENVILLE, MISSISSIPPI 38703, (662) 332-7231) REPLACED THE STRUTS AND THE BALL JOINTS IN AN ATTEMPT TO STABILIZE THE VEHICLE, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES AND STATED THAT THE SHAKING OF THE VEHICLE WAS A RESULT OF FAULTY INNER AND OUTER TIE RODS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 119,000.”

“ON MY WAY TO WORK I STOPPED AND PUT $15 DOLALRS IN THE TANK I WAS JUST BELOW A HALF TANK NOW. I DROVE ROUGHLY 5-10MILES AND WHEN I WAS DRIVING AROUND 30MPH THE OIL CAN LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN MY STEERING GOT TIGHT AND BRAKES GOT TIGHT. IT WAS LIKE THEY WENT OUT. MY CAR ENGINE THEN SHUT OFF AND I COASTED TO THE SHOULDER THE BEST I COULD. THIS ALMOST CAUSED A LARGE ACCIDENT. I TRIED STARTING THE CAR IMMEDIATELY AFTER IT MADE NOISE BUT WOULD NOT START A COUPLE MINUTES LATER I STARTED IT AND THE CAR STARTED FINE.”
