2011 CHRYSLER 300
ON 5 SEPARATE OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE INDICATED VEHICLE IS IN PARK. HOWEVER, THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. ONCE, ON HIGHWAY AND REMAINING FOUR TIMES OCCURRED ON CITY STREETS. ON ALL 5 OCCASIONS, VEHICLE WOULD ALLOW ME TO PUT INTO PARK BUT WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TURN VEHICLE OFF. 4 OF 5 TIMES THIS OCCURRED, I DROVE AROUND WHILE OCCASIONALLY STOPPING TO PUT CAR INTO REVERSE AND BACK THRU GEARS AGAIN BEFORE IT'D FINALLY LET ME PARK AND TURN OFF. 1 OF 5 TIMES, THE CAR LET ME PUT INTO PARK AND PRESS START BUTTON UNTIL IT WENT TO 3RD SETTING BEFORE IT'D ALLOW ME TURN VEHICLE ME OFF. IN ADDITION, 2 TIMES THIS VEHICLE, WHILE IN MOTION ON CITY STREET, HAS SWITCHED INTO 1 OR 2 DRIVE GEAR WITHOUT MY PUTTING IT THERE. ONCE STOPPED, I HAD TO TRY GOING THRU GEARS MANY TIMES BEFORE IT'D LET ME RETURN TO D. MY BELIEF IS THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH SHIFTER OR PERHAPS AN ISSUE WITH WHATEVER TIES IN OR ATTACHED TO SHIFTER. I APOLOGIZE I'M NOT MECHANICALLY INCLINED. I DO HAVE PICTURES AND A VIDEO OF CAR NOT SHUTTING OFF BECAUSE IT STATES IT'S IN PARK WHEN IT'S NOT.

I HAVE A YEAR WITH MY VEHICLE AND IT HASN'T GAVE ME ANY PROBLEMS UNTIL NOW THAT THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID NEEDS TO GET DRAINED. THE GEARS WONT SHIFT CORRECTLY.RPM'S FEEL AS THOUGH THEY ARE NOT RISING PROPORTIONALLY TO THROTTLE INPUT.THROTTLE RESPONSE FEELS DEAD IN CERTAIN INSTANCES.SOMETIMES THE CAR WILL CHIRP/SPIN THETIRESOFF THE LINE AND THE RPM'S RISE QUICKLY, OTHER TIMES YOU CAN FLOOR THE CAR OFF THE LINE AND GET ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.GENERAL SLUGGISHNESS IN ACCELERATION -SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASED DROP IN RPM BETWEEN SHIFTS. SO I LOOKED IT UP AND I FOUND THIS ARTICLE ON 300 CARS THAT FROM THE MAKES 06-10 WITH RWD MODELS THE 42RLETRANSMISSIONUSES 'EMCC'.THE WAY IT IS PROGRAMMED TO OPERATEIN THIS 4 SPEED TRANSMISSION CAUSES SERIOUS DRIVABILITY ISSUES ATORQUECONVERTERCLUTCH IN AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WILL LOCK/UNLOCK AT CERTAIN SPEEDS, BUT THETORQUE CONVERTERCLUTCH IN THE42RLEDOES NOT OPERATE AS CHRYSLER DESCRIBES IT IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. THERE IS ALOT MORE PEOPLE WITH THAT SAME PROBLEM SO PLEASE TRY TO GIVE OWER RECALL COMPLAIN A LOOK. I LOVE THE CHRYSLER 300 SERIES AND WOULD HATE TO KEEP GOING THROUGH THIS ON A BEAUTIFUL CAR.

THE CHECK ENGINE LITE CAME ON STAYED ON AND THE ENGINE STOPPED. AFTER A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME THE ENGINE STARTED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE NEAREST DEALER IN WILMINGTON, NC. THE DEALER FOUND DTC FOR INCORRECT GEAR RATIO AND REPROGRAMMED THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE. OLD CODE WAS #68065111AF AND THE NEW #WAS 68065111AG. SINCE THAT PERIOD OF TIME WHEN THE VEHICLE SPEED REACHES 40MPH IT SEEMS THAT THE TRANSMISSION WANTS TO DOWNSHIFT. PRIOR TO THE CODE CHANGE IT WAS VERY SMOOTH AND NO PROBLEMS. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS FOR A RESOLUTION BUT ALL THEY CAN SAY IS THERE ISN'T A PROBLEM. WHAT HAS CAUSED ME TO SUBMIT THIS PROBLEM IS THE RESPONSE I RECEIVED TODAY ON MY LATEST INQUIRY. I FEEL THAT THIS CONDITION IS A SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO YOU NOT KNOWING HOW THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING TO REACT AT THIS SPEED, WHAT GEAR IS IT POSSIBLY GOING TO SELECT. HAS THIS OR A SIMILAR PROBLEM BEEN SUBMITTED BEFORE. THE DRIVETRAIN IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY BUT IF CHRYSLER CAN'T PROVIDE ADEQUATE TECHNICAL RESPONSES THEN WHAT DO YOU DO. IF ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IS REQUIRED PLEASE CONTACT ME AND I WILL PROVIDE WHATEVER I HAVE.
