interested to know your views.
Hi Lisa4100,
We have a Chrysler Voyager and have just got a Raclet Quickstop, weight 650kg I think, and the MPG has only gone down by 1.1MPG with the trailer on, our car hardly notices it's there. I dont know how heavy your camplet is, but I imagine the 300c woudlnt struggle with it.
camplet not got much weight in it. Have you had any problems/faults with your chrysler? how have you found servicing etc/ Had recent bad experience in france with hyundai - see blogs- as tow alot in france, wales, and holland like to know what peoples experiences are in europe. We,ve not had problems before - but you know what they say - not made like they used to be!!!!!!!!!
I used to tow Conway cruiser with a 1.6 Chevrolet Tacuma, no problems. Now got Meriva 1.7 diesel and keep forgetting trailer is there lol wife tells me off when i go too fast
300C is a lot of car for the money. 3.5 petrol is not that great, (pretty awful tbh), but diesel is the business.
The diesel's oily bits are all Mercedes and the car is built in Austria. Build quality is OK and the car has lots of toys.
Nothing has gone wrong or fallen off mine in over 3 years. It handles better than you would think for something that size, but the ride is a bit rough over our potholed roads. Brilliant on motorways though.
Its biggest fault is its sheer size. Not a problem at all on the roads, but multi storey car parks ? Forget it !
Oh - forgot to mention the 5.7/6.1 Hemi engine. That can lay down rubber in a straight line, but you would need your very own oil well to keep the fuel tank filled. I had one of those on hire in the USofA and it was fun. But could manage only 10 mpg.
We havent had many problems with our chrysler, only that the battery that the manufacturer installed was not a high enough ampage, it was recalled once for faulty battery within two years of the car manufacture, and then we had to replace that one about 1 year later, they only had 650 mah, we changed it to a 850mah battery, had to cut the tray though to allow the battery to sit on the switch in the battery tray). Touch wood since then we have been ok.
Would never take our Chrysler to a Nationwide autocentre (AA) again, as they did not service the vehicle properly. Also tried to the tell me that no car has a light on the dashboard to advise if the handbrake is on. Yeah right!.
Chrysler dealership service is very expensive though, only kept that up whilst car was still in warranty, now go to independents instead.
