Buying a used 2018 Chrysler 300? Check these 4 recalls first

4 NHTSA recalls · 153 owner complaints on file

This is the busiest recall year among the 300s listed: a critical recall for curtain airbags that may rupture, plus high-severity recalls for a transmission that may not stay in Park, cruise control that may stick on, and an engine computer that can cause stalling. Owner complaints — 153 unverified NHTSA reports including six crashes and seven injuries — cluster heavily in electrical system, the same territory as the computer and cruise-control issues.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Verify by VIN that the curtain airbag rupture recall has been repaired.
3. Confirm the Park, cruise control, and engine computer recalls were all completed.
4. Ask whether the car has ever stalled, rolled while in Park, or thrown warning lights.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Chrysler dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
