    Hello All-

    I have a '05 300C that makes a rumbling vibratiion feel and sound at 45 and
    up MPH. The sound will come and go, but is very frequent. I can make it stop
    with some acceleration or coasting . It sounds like I'm running over the
    rumble strips but there are none about. Less then 5,000 miles on the car.
    Bought it new in March '05

    Has anyone heard of this or experienced this?

    I sure hope Chrysler didn't stick crappy tires on the 300C like they did on
    the early 300M.

  6. Since it's under warranty, please refrain from second-guessing the dealer
    until after he's failed to fix it once. Who knows he might surprise you!

    Ted? Are you addressing me?

    Please reread my post. No where in it did I second guess my dealer about the
    problem.

    I took the car into the dealer today and they think it is the torque
    converter. Some water leaked in to the tranny around the dip stick . They
    have to drain fluid and refill and change the filter. Filter is out of
    stock. Car will be ready on Thursday.

    No second guessing from me. Conti-seal tires are not cheap and in good
    shape.

    the water issue really is fucking up the transmissions in the long term
    get it bac and go blow it up, better to fail under warranty then when out
    they are just trying to save a few bucs from a tear out and repair properly
    standpoint
