Do I recommend the 300? by angel008a

It is a beautiful car yes , it is a comfterable yes , but NO on the car because what good is beauty and comfort when you can't feel coffident in going somewhere without worring about the car not starting or stalling out.
  Family saftey is important to me and I have totaly lost faith in this car .

Recommend? Absolutely by vic10

Took delivery of my 300C in Sept 2004. Total problems:
1. Easy exit automatic seat retraction stopped working. Found out I can easily reset the memory.
2. Express down windows wouldn't express. Similar to (1)--very easy for me to reset memory.
3. One passenger window operated intermittently. Controller replaced.
4. Lost volume on radio one time. Worked fine next engine start and hasn't repeated in past year.
5. Yes, have wheel corrosion issue still being discussed.
 
Not too bad I would say. Always starts at the flick of the key. Has never stalled. Doesn't shake. Doesn't pull to the right. Transmission shifts like it was direct wired to my brain. Tire wear is perfectly even. Average gas mileage is 20 mpg. Great aircon in Tulsa's 100+ temps. Excellent handling at any speed. And WOW acceleration. Better than my last Buick that needed two engine changes within the first 24k miles. If someone gave me $50K to buy a new car. I'd say no thanks, I'll keep this one.... Go for it man !!!

That is true, who wants to look good broken down on the side of the road. Did you personally own one? What happened with it, if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks for replying I have received mixed signals between the loyalists who have no problems and the victims who bought this and felt bad due to the constant repairs and visits to the repair shops. Thanks .

Check out the other car models by vic10

here at Edmunds. I don't think you'll find a single one that doesn't have lemons scattered here and there. First and foremost, try to get info on your dealer, regardless of what car you buy. A bad one can make a good car seem like a lemon, and a bad one can turn a lemon into lemonade....

I have been, believe me I know that there are other models if not all that have some problems. The thing is I have seen new 300Cs off the lot and have problems where as to nissan, toyota, Lexus the majority of problems are on cars that are 3 years old or more. And people come on there and ask others what they think is wrong.

I understand a company having a few problems, however the compnay shuld stand behind the product. This will go a long ways in establishing comsumer confidence.

Re: 300C Stalling Issue [smayeric] by mike871

I just purchased a Certified-Previously-Owned (CPO) 2006 300C. After driving it about 400 miles (have had it about 4 days), it stalled twice on the way home today during stop and go traffic and in very hot weather (100 degrees). Do you know the TSB # for the issue you mentioned on 5/25/05? I can't find it at the NTSB site.... thanks!

Autostick won't upshift in 300C by mike871
Jul 31, 2006 (5:45 pm)
I just purchased a Certified-Previously-Owned (CPO) 2006 300C. I've only had it 4 days but have confirmed the Autostick feature is not working properly. It will downshift, but it is impossible to upshift (i.e., pressing the stick to the right does nothing). The only way to force it back into normal Drive is to put it in Neutral and then put it back into Drive. Weird...it's going to the dealership tomorrow to be repaired but was wondering if anyone had seen this before (am surprised they sold it as CPO like this!). But I LOVE the car.
