2007 Chrysler 300 Hemi 300C review from Australia and New Zealand
"Best value for money, no other can compare"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
22,000 kms O ring seal wore out (common problem), but a quick stop at the dealer service fixed that within 15 minutes at no charge.
No other mechanical failures.
I recommend disabling the tilt down mirror when reversing, as I bumped into a cyclist and scratched my paint, as I couldn't see him due to the tilt.
General comments?
I have owned this car for almost two years, and I have no complaints. Things only got bad for me when I discovered what ESP OFF meant. I burnt thru my tyres and my average 13.6 l/100 kms jumped to 16.5 because I loved the roar of the HEMI.
Its expensive having a lead foot in a 300c, but hey you only live once.
I've lost count of how many ricers the 300C has consumed for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
