| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have a 2000 300m. it has experienced sloppy steering, ?hitches? and a lack of smoothness, especially in left hand turns, and a tendency to not have the wheel come back to center without undue force being exerted. the front end also makes several different types of noises. the car is now in a asce shop with copies of information and tsb?s found on this site. i am hoping to have it properly repaired and to have my son use it for college (approximately 125 miles away). i am now concerned that, even repaired, the car will be unsafe. i believe i had an issue early on with it and the dealer replaced some tie rods or something. the car now has 160,000 miles on it and i have spent money on many items like brakes, tires, complete suspension replacement, several front end alignment issues, battery, air conditioning, etc. i thought it would be a good safe car for my son. now i don?t know what to do. two days ago a 19 year old family friend lost control of his 300m and hit a tree. he is dead. *jb |
