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 .

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 !!! |

| 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. | |

Alright, I have had enough with this car. I have purchased the car on May 31 and have had nothing but problems with it since. Here are the following problems: - tranny jerks when going from park to reverse. - tranny shifts hard when going from 1st to 2nd. - car nearly stalls when stopped at a stop light **this only happens after the car is warm, a/c is running, vehicle is in drive, brake is applied** I have been able to get this problem to happen with my sales rep but the service manager tried to tell me today that it is from the cooling fan kicking in. - rear windows won't go down when needed - intermediate problem - the car won't shift when accelerating to get on the highway. I take that back, it does shift only after I let off the gas or the car red-lines. Of course the dealarship is located in a downtown setting and it is several cumbersome miles to get to the highway. - cd has been stuck in the nav system *that was replaced today with a refurbished only to have the scrolling stick not work. - car pulls to the right *dealership has adjusted but still pulling. - brakes seem to be spongy most of the time, however, sometimes when applied they seem to add an extra force for no reason. Specs: miles 2967, purchased May 31, 2006, price 36,070.00 (sticker price), satisfaction with service and follow up: NONE, still waiting to receive my loan information (I have already made 2 payments), still waiting to receive title and plates (temporary plates expired June 30, 2006), Number of days in the shop: 5, total number of hours on the car 93:25:49. Does anyone have any interest or suggestions?! Thanks!
