I had my crummy 300 at the dealer friday as mentioned. They used new and improved numbers for the alignment via an unpublished revision to the TSB. I did get a copy of the final alignment specs after they were done however. No more pull. I am a bit worried though if these very intense specs are going to cause undo hardship to the tires. Time will tell. If so, I am sure Chrysler will find a way to try to weasel out of it. Last Chrysler for me. I can send you the specs they used friday as well on a private email if you run into a wall at your local dealer

I have the same problem with the car pulling to the right. I had it in for service, and they said it was within specs. But, they switched the two front tires and this helped very little. Very frustrating.

They fixed mine after 6 trips back in. Of course I am now wiping out the tires, but they don't care.

I WAS considering buying the 300C as my car was totaled in a head-on Collision with a drunk driver. Luckily, I am still negotiating with insurance companies and getting a 300C AWD here in the Boston area is next to impossible. Hearing all these problems of how it handles in the snow, programming problems, dead batteries, handling and pulling to the right and tire wear I think I will go back to Toyota and stay with the Avalon XLS I had. Best car I ever had and NEVER once since I purchased it in July 2001 did the car have a single problem. I took it in for regular maintenance as the owners manual called out and it ran like it dream. I am alive today because the Avalon XLS held up so well in a 95 mph head-on impact. I love the look of the 300C AWD with the Hemi but I do not have the patience or time to deal with a car that requires I run back and forth to the dealership for all these problems. Thanks to all you owners for talking me out of the 300C. As usual, all the American Cars continue to be plagued with problems.

Thanks for sharing. I looked at an Avalon before I bought my 300C, but I fell asleep.

I've got over 5,000 miles on my 300c and never had a problem, except getting stuck on an icy hill with a line of cars behind me. It's the most fun car I've ever owned.

I was also worried about all these problems when I ordered my 300C. 1700 miles so far so good. Had little experience with snow (live in south Jersey). I love this car and I'm glad I got it.

kinglab,
 
First off, you're reading a forum titled Problems & Solutions. You'd hear the other, much more common, story of complete satisfaction if there were such a forum. I have 6000 miles of pure pleasure and satisfaction on my 300C which has every option but the sunroof. I've had zero problems, I get superb mileage given the performance the Hemi provides, and have never driven a car that's such a joy to drive (I'm well into my fifth decade of driving), and I've driven all the large Euro sedans, and owned several.
 
Give the 300C a spirited test drive; you'll be hooked.
