At least 20 times. Driving down the highway doesn't matter if driving straight or cornering. The engine dies. Once I get it stopped. I put it back in park. Restart the engine and it runs. There are no codes, and can't get it to duplicate the problem at the garage. I've searched the internet and this seems to be a continuous problem and no one is finding the problem. From what I've read dealerships are just throwing parts at the problem. This is a safety issue. My daughter was almost rear-ended today.

I was driving on the highway with cruise and my car started to go limp, then started to accelerate without my foot on the gas. Then my check engine light came on and I pulled off and turned the car off and back on. It drove fine but when I went to have it checked they said it threw a code for my TCM. My coworker also drives a Chrysler 300 and had the same issue in the same week! He never got his checked out but his car stopped accelerating and then started again while on cruise. This is happening to a lot of Chryslers so I looked up recalls and it looks like the TCM was recalled in the 2016 300’s but my 2015 and his 2015 is having the same issues

The center console and both front door panels need to be replaced as the panel is pulling away from the doors and the console. Research shows that when the panels on the door requires repair, this could render side front air bags ineffective and the car can easily lose heat and allow cold air inside. Similarly, with the center console, this could cause the p/n/r/d gears to malfunction. I did contact Chrysler (case# 80922998) as was advised that my claim was declined because the 2-year warranty had been exceeded. My car is a 2015 Chrysler 300. The issue did not start until 2020. Research also revealed that many of the Chrysler 300s are experiencing this issue. Also, I did have the dealer to take a look at the panels when I went to have my car serviced on 10/27/2021 and was advised to submit a claim with Chrysler. Finally, please note that my car is a 2015 with only 19,609 miles as of 10/27/2021.

I PURCHASED MY 2015 CHRYSLER 300 LIMITED TWO DAYS SHORT OF A MONTH. I BOUGHT IT USED FROM CARMAX, WITH 15K MILES. I HAVE PUT ON ABOUT 1K MILES SO FAR, AND I AM NOTICING A BURNING SMELL - LIKE HEATED CERAMIC, WHILE INSIDE THE CAR WHEN I AM STATIONARY, AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN FOR ABOUT AN HOUR (HIGHWAY AND STREET). SMELL IS MORE NOTICEABLE OUTSIDE THE CAR (AFTER I PARK) AND WHEN I LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD FOR POSSIBLE LEAKS - NO LEAKS PRESENT, BUT THE SMELL IS COMING FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE ENGINE. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTING A LITTLE HARDER BETWEEN GEARS (NOT BY MUCH, BUT NOTICEABLE FROM HOW IT DROVE A MONTH AGO OFF THE LOT). USE THE VEHICLE FOR COMMUTE TO WORK AND RUNNING AROUND TOWN. I DON'T RACE THE ENGINE, AND TRY TO KEEP THE GAS MPG AS HIGH AS POSSIBLE (LIGHT GAS PEDAL FOOT). CONCERNED THAT I SEE THERE WERE RECALLS FOR THE ALTERNATOR ON PREVIOUS MODEL YEARS - BURNING UP AND CAUSING FIRES. ALTERNATOR IS IN THE SAME AREA AS THE SMELL. NO RECALLS OR COMPLAINTS ON FILE FOR THIS SITUATION FOR MY YEAR AND MODEL.
