NHTSA Complaint about ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:SWITCH filed June 24, 2021

NHTSA complaint #1753814 (ODI reference 11422088) concerns a 2007 CHRYSLER 300 and was filed on June 24, 2021. The owner reports the failure occurred on May 10, 2021. The vehicle had 156,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Florida based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as electrical system:ignition:switch, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.

The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. No VIN was supplied by the filer, so this complaint contributes to model-year trend data but cannot be tied to a specific vehicle.

Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same CHRYSLER 300 cohort independently describe similar electrical system:ignition:switch failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2007 CHRYSLER 300 shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
