2005 Chrysler 300 C Hemi review from North America
"Great look and hemi.. bad electricals"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Electric problems.
Auto wipers have mind of their own.
General comments?
I was looking for a larger more comfortable car as my family was taking more trips to my wife's moms.
Love the looks and comfort of this car, but was starting to have intermittently electrical problems, power windows not working, rain sensing wipers coming on on sunny days and not coming on when raining, seat memory not working.
Nothing too terrible until we talked with family with a 300 and they were also having electric problems (headlights and dash lights not working.. 2 weeks at dealer.. new motherboard.. and now same problems again). We decided time to trade. Love the looks and the Hemi, but did not seem reliable.
