Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I purchased a 2007 chrysler 300 in 6/2/07 as a demo model with 954 miles on it. on the way home from the dealership i noticed a rough idle and also a vibration in my front end while maintaining speeds at around 45 mph. i had to put the vehicle in for service on 06/11/07 and it took until 6/21/07 to get it back. the front end vibration was caused by a bad torque converter, however once driving my vehicle i noticed the rough idle hadn't been repaired. then on 5 separate occasions when going from a complete stop accelerating to get up to speed, when the vehicle should be going from 1st to second gear the engine just wines and it takes approx 10-15 seconds to kick into gear, making it extremely dangerous especially when merging into traffic. i turned it back in for service on 6/3/07 and as of today they still don't know what the problem is. they have had a field service engineer from chrysler come in to look at it and he doesn't know either. *tr
