What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 chrysler 300. While the contact was exiting the vehicle, the gear shifted from park to reverse without warning. As a result, the contact was dragged on the ground. The passenger in the vehicle had to move over and depress the brake pedal in order to stop the vehicle. The contact received leg and face injuries that required medical attention. A police report was not filed. The contact had not taken the vehicle to the dealer for diagnostic testing.
I found a recall for chrysler 300 (n65), but it's only for a 3.6l model. I have a 5.7l hemi AWD and the output shaft just broke while driving in the highway. I cannot be the only one... There has to be others. I just had another recall fixed on this car. They just need to recall this entire model. Is there any chance 5.7l will also be recalled on this issue?
