Replying to: jhterceira (Feb 08, 2005 3:42 pm) 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.

Replying to: docmark1 (May 30, 2004 8:41 am) I had the same problems with a Dodge 2500. pulled to the left from day one. They replaced everything on the left side of the vehicle - nothing helped. I gave up after about 8 visits and just lived with it. Eventually, it pissed me off to where I tore it apart myself. Turned out that the problem was not an over-zealous left brake, but a weak right one! I replaced the caliper on the right and it has been stopping straight for the last 80,000 miles. Maybe it is the same with yours. Good luck!

#35 of 219 pulling to the right by jlm Jun 08, 2004 (5:01 pm)
same issue here. have about 1500 miles on my 300, dealership had the car for 8 days, claims to of tried everything. the TSB out there was useless, it did no good. they even had a regional rep come in the area (charlotte, nc) and still no fix. i took the car today because i honestly feel like the dealership exhausted all their options, but i'll give it a few days. ride home was very annoying veered right the entire time, just like when i brought it in, service manager's response was these cars are very sensitive and any flaw in the road will cause a veer. i'll give it a few more days before i take it in again. a brand new 30+k auto should not have an issue like this.

Replying to: jlm (Jun 08, 2004 5:01 pm) I have a copy of the TSB; all 300's built before April 25, 2004 have the pull problem. Don't let your dealer blame it on something else. Time allowance in the TSB for completion of the fix is 1.7 hours, they really don't need a full day or longer. Again, it's TSB 02-003-04 dated May 25, 2004 Replies to this message: arnoldw (Jun 09, 2004 4:15 pm) jlm (Jun 10, 2004 4:55 am) arnoldw (Jun 10, 2004 2:59 pm) itshemi (Jul 09, 2004 6:40 am) and 2 more... 300hemifl (Jun 14, 2004 5:32 pm) donnak1 (Feb 23, 2005 8:07 pm) decker3 (May 03, 2005 5:27 am)

Replying to: texas bob (Jun 09, 2004 6:03 am) NOT all 300s built before apr 25 have pull. TSB states drive the car on a FLAT road. IF the car tracks straight, the vehicle operator is experiencing crown sensitivity. My 300c was built apr 17...steers great. Test drove 2 other 300s before purchase and they were fine also.

Replying to: arnoldw (Jun 09, 2004 4:15 pm) thanks for the info, my questions is then why does the car not pull to the left at times, not every road is crowned on the right side. i have driven on the flatest streets, and the pull is always to the right, i have even gone on the oppposite side of the road , where the the crown of the road is on the left side , and it still pulls right.

Replying to: jlm (Jun 10, 2004 4:55 am) Sure glad i've got one of the good ones. You'd think it would be a simple alignment to correct the problem. Hope they find a fix for your's and others soon so you can enjoy it like me! I wonder if a lot of these cars are like this?

Replying to: texas bob (Jun 09, 2004 6:03 am) I bought my 300c on April 27th. So far, I've had no problems with pulling. Car has been pretty good (knock on wood). A/C could blow colder air from the get-go, and especially from the back vents. Also, my black exterior is a pain to keep clean (of course), but my light carpets are even more of a bit*h. I may order dark mats. Other than that, very happy.
