Within the first year I had the vehicle each of the head lights failed. Still under warranty the Dealer determined that the fuses were bad and charged me $90 each time to replace the fuses. I now have an issue with the passenger side head light. Initially it was an interment off-on condition. Now it is continuously off. I have not had this one fixed yet. but I suspect that the fuse block is defective and is not securing the fuse (ie a loose connection), which would be evident.by signs of arcing between the fuse tang and the fuse block contacts. Minor arcing between the two contacts would diminish current flow between the contacts until the light would no longrer come on.

It is obvious that this 2019 Chrysler 300 has the defects that a recall was issued by the NHSTA about. My electrical systems have malfunctioned multiple times causing the vehicle to lock up and die in traffic. The power steering would go out. The car wouldn’t want to shift. Anything and everything that could read information out wrong was going off. The check engine light. The brake system. Transmission. Etc. just everything was lit up on the dash. The car would lock and unlock on its own. The windshield wipers would come on and turn off by themselves. The transmission is electric too, and it would want to lock up when you tried to shift it to park. This car has truly been a nightmare for me. I was the second owner. It was sold to me by Crain Ford of Little Rock. I was never told anything about any recall.

The battery is in the trunk. If it is dead, the trunk open button in the car won't work and there is no place to use a key in the trunk to open it. You have to go into the front door, crawl through the inside of the car, open the back seat, crawl through the opening and pull the trunk release handle INSIDE the trunk. Then you can either charge or replace the battery. I am 78 and can not physically do this. It is a real safety issue if I am stranded away from a garage or in a bad area and I am not able to get the car started with a dead battery. I have been without the use of my car for a week while I try to get someone to replace the battery.02172023
