    Chrysler 300

    Chrysler 300

    FROM
    $51,810

    The Chrysler 300 is a large sedan that seemingly doesn’t follow the bounds of time. The first generation model launched in 2005 in a world where retro-inspired models were all the rage, while the second-generation model – which first went on sale in 2011, and is still on sale today – refined the recipe to offer a more tech-focused package.

    The biggest success story for the Chrysler 300 has always been the V8-powered models, and in the post Commodore and Falcon era, it has met the need for a big-power rear-wheel drive sedan for some customers. There are even a few on police fleets around Australia.

    The Chrysler 300 range starts at $51,810 for the 300 C Luxury, and tops out at $76,890 for the V8-powered 300 SRT.

    This vehicle is also known as The Chrysler 300 is also known as Lancia Thema (Europe) in markets outside Australia..

    Refund wanted on 300C

    You won't get your money back, at least not in the short term and not without a huge fight. Start by documenting all the visits to the dealer, what the problems were, and what work was done to fix them. Once you've done that talk to the dealer, show them the history of the car and ask them to fix it. If they will not co-operate go higher to Chrysler head office and talk to the customer assistance people. If that fails contact the company's CEO, Pat Dougherty, directly. If you don't receive any satisfaction for doing all of that enlist the help of a solicitor to send Chrysler a letter setting out your problems.

    Sedan options after Commodore?

    I've just been driving the latest Chrysler 300C and it's much improved and definitely continuing beyond Commodore and Falcon. It's not as good as the VFII, which you should choose next, but would work for you once Holden becomes an import-only brand.
