I purchased the Chrysler 300 touring of May 23, 2023. This was suppose to be brand new. After, a week, the car was having issues in the steering and I had too report the car dealership because they were giving me a hard time but finally, after, reaching out to corporate, the car dealership, fixed the steering and added an addition warranty. Now, there’s something going on with the tire pressure. The tire pressure for this car shouldn’t be at 28,29,30 and 31. So, now, every time, I have a local tire place to check the tire pressure, the air continuously lose pressure. So, today on Dec 12, 2024, in order to stop, my brakes went all the way down to the floor and that’s not normal. So, there’s something wrong with the brake lines. I’ve been having issues with this supposedly be brand new car since purchase. The week after purchasing this car, because of the steering before it was fixed, I almost got into a car accident. This car really, really scares me.
