Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have had my 300M for a little over a year now and noticed that there was a small crack developing on the left side of the passenger airbag. The crack quickly grew from about 1 inch to about 7 inches in a matter of days. I had a local company cover the damage but there was not much they could do without interfering with the reliability of the airbag deployment. After searching the internet for other people having these issues, I have found that just about everyone that owns a 300M has this same problem including my sister. …”
NHTSA complaint #10155549, filed 2006-04, 74,357 miles“Dashboard started cracking from windshied area all the way down ,then another crack did the same.one crack is on passenger side and one in the middle of dashboard.”
NHTSA complaint #10721340, filed 2015-05, 51,000 miles“Dt: the vehicle has a split in dashboard around the passenger airbag. The dashboard has been replaced in 2002 for the same reason. The dealer replaced it free of charge the first time. This replacement was as result of a conversation the vehicle owner had with the manufacturer in detroit. The manufacturer or dealer will not replace it this time. The owner feels this could result in a premature deployment of the airbag. The split appeared six weeks ago, and continued to grow.”
NHTSA complaint #10136033, filed 2005-10, 64,552 miles“My dash has a 12 inch vertical crack left of the airbag. This is in the area of the dash were it is set in for the air bag. I called Chrysler and they said this isn't a hazard. I don't agree with them. No one will even touch the dash in that area to fill or fix the problem because it could case the air bag not to work! So, I don't understand why this wouldn't be an issue with Chrysler. To me it is a safety issue and I want it fixed. My life and my families life is more important than the manufacture not taking responsibility. …”
NHTSA complaint #10133642, filed 2005-08“The dashboard on the passenger side started to split open near the airbag compartment. I showed this area to a service department employee, and he told me I would have to pay to have it repaired. It was considered trim, not an item covered by warranty. I told him it appeared to be a problem with the airbag compartment and I felt Chrysler should be responsible. I had the repairs done at my expense, and the person who did the repairs, said he has repaired 6 or 7 other 300M's, in two different states, with the same problem. …”
