Problem overview

Some Chrysler 300M owners report experiencing intermittent starting issues after driving, often finding that the vehicle starts in NEUTRAL but struggles in PARK, which may indicate a problem with the transmission sensor or gear shift mechanism. Additionally, issues with battery cables can contribute to starting difficulties, prompting recommendations to check for corrosion or damage at the battery posts. Some owners have also noted that installing a fuel pressure gauge can help identify if a leaking injector is causing pressure drops when the engine is off. Furthermore, others report that the cruise control light intermittently turns off after driving, suggesting potential electrical or sensor issues. Using a code reader to check for stored codes related to the evap system or other components may provide insights into the underlying causes of the cruise control cut out problem. Addressing these concerns promptly is essential for ensuring the reliable operation of the Chrysler 300M.
