“I just purchased a Chrysler 300c back in july. I had to return to the dealership 4 times for the ez-up window on the driver side malfunctioning. They stated to me that Chrysler knows about the problem but don't know how to fix it. Every time they reset the computer, the window works for about 3 days then stops working. This is getting annoying to me.”
