Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On 1/25/06 i lost all acceleration on my 2006 chrysler 300c 4dr. sedan. the engine was running, pressing the accelerator revved the engine but their was absolutely no acceleration. luckily there was a shoulder, i was in the right lane and was able to coast over before being struck by the truck behind me. the vehicle was "repaired" by the dealer (mcdonough chrysler in east brunswick, nj) and returned to me on 2/10/06. the same thing happened to my wife while driving south on us route #1. this time there was no shoulder and the tractor trailer behind her only avoided hitting her by swerving to the left and going around her. when the vehicle was towed the tow truck operator made a comment that he tows "about 20 of these cars a week." this may be an exaggeration but it would seem to indicate a serious problem. *nm
