Chrysler 300 Lemon Law
Talk to a Chrysler lemon law attorney — your Chrysler 300 may qualify for a buyback, replacement, or cash settlement.
If your Chrysler 300 has stalled, died in traffic, or lost electrical power with a battery light and flickering dash, you're not imagining it — the 300 has well-documented alternator and TIPM electrical defects. If the dealer can't fix it, your 300 may qualify as a California lemon.
The Chrysler 300 alternator and electrical stalling problem
The signature defect on the 3.6-liter Chrysler 300 is a failure-prone alternator. Chrysler recalled 2011–2014 models under NHTSA campaigns 14V634 and 17V435 because the alternator could suddenly fail; when it does, system voltage can drop to critical levels, disabling the anti-lock brakes, stability control, and engine controls, and the vehicle can stall or shut down while driving. Warning signs include a battery light, dimming or flickering lights, and a whining noise before the failure.
The 300 also suffers from Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) problems. The TIPM is the sedan's central electrical hub, and when it malfunctions it can trigger random stalling, no-start conditions, dead accessories, and complete power loss that leaves drivers stranded without warning. Chrysler never issued a broad TIPM recall, so many owners face repeated dealer visits and out-of-pocket repairs. Owners also report Uconnect screen delamination and other electrical faults.
A recall or a repeat repair is not automatically a lemon, but it can qualify. California's Lemon Law generally applies when a manufacturer or its dealer cannot repair a substantial defect within a reasonable number of attempts, or when the car is out of service for an extended time for warranty work. Because stalling and power loss are serious safety defects, fewer attempts are needed. If your 300 keeps failing, you may be owed a buyback, a replacement, or a cash settlement, with Chrysler paying your attorney fees.
Commonly Reported Chrysler 300 Problems
Not every Chrysler 300 is affected. Any substantial, warranty-covered defect that can't be fixed after a reasonable number of attempts — or that keeps your vehicle out of service — may support a claim.
Is Your Chrysler 300 a Lemon?
A recall is not automatically a lemon — it's the manufacturer acknowledging a defect and offering a free repair. California's Lemon Law (the Song-Beverly Act) comes into play when a substantial defect can't be fixed after a reasonable number of attempts, or when your 300 has been out of service for 30 or more cumulative days.
If your Chrysler 300 qualifies, you may be entitled to a buyback (a refund of what you've paid, minus a mileage offset), a replacement vehicle, or a cash-and-keep settlement — and Chrysler pays your attorney fees on a successful claim, so pursuing your case costs you nothing out of pocket.

The Chrysler 300 alternator was recalled — does that make my car a lemon?
Not automatically. A recall means a known defect exists, but a lemon claim depends on the repair. If Chrysler or the dealer can't fix the alternator or stalling problem within a reasonable number of attempts, the failure keeps returning, or your 300 sits waiting on parts, you may be entitled to a buyback, a replacement, or a cash settlement, with Chrysler paying your attorney fees.
My Chrysler 300 stalls or dies while driving — what should I do?
Stalling and power loss are serious safety defects. Have the repair performed, keep every repair order, and note each date the car was in the shop or unusable. If the fix doesn't hold, get a free case review — safety defects require fewer failed attempts to qualify as a lemon.
What can I recover for a defective Chrysler 300?
Potentially a buyback (a refund of what you've paid, minus a mileage offset), a replacement vehicle, or a cash-and-keep settlement — plus your attorney fees paid by Chrysler. There's no cost to you to pursue a claim.
