In owners' words
What 300c owners report
Recent power train complaints filed with NHTSA, shortened. Personal details are removed.

My 300 has a glitch that causes me to put in neutral then back in drive I'm guessing because of a limp mode, I've had it worked on many times at the dealer in the 3 years I've owned it and spent thousands of dollars and not fix the problem. It done what 06V341000 said but my Vin is not effected…
Took car in to dealer for power train issue where the car wouldn’t go over 40mph. Same day my wheel locked causing me to crash. I got a report that this issue was a recall for other models not the 300c
