Im selling my chrysler 300 now that i've moved to town. I dont need it anymore for the long trips from the country to come in to work. I bought it used from a dealer in iowa before i moved to michigan. It had about 70k? on it when i bought it and now has about 136k. I've replaced alot of front end parts on it, but thats it. Just regular maintenance as you'd expect. It does have new tires on it, but they weren't the highest grade tires because i knew i was going to sell it. They have more road noise than im used to having, its not too bad, but for a 300 that is supposed to be dead quite, i can hear a small humm from the road. The 6cyl gets great gas mileage, last time i checked i was getting 28 on the hiway. (yes, you read that correctly, 28mpg)

It's a daily driver, so, expect it to be a used car. Please don't show up and expect it to be brand new. This car is in great shape, but has normal dings on it for its age.
This is a great running car.
If your coming a long way to come pick it up, rest assured you will not be getting a lemon, and will make it home just fine.

Get the carfax, I think it shows 3 owners, but im listed twice since i moved to another state.
No accidents.

Here is a list of what i know is wrong with it. (Most everything is in the video, linked below)
missing the baby seat cover in the back seat.
small chips in hood. (never noticed until just yesterday)
small crack in leather seat (drivers seat)
ding in passenger rear door. (never noticed it before)
burns half quart oil between oil changes (no leaks, so it must be burning it)
air conditioner will need coolant next year, a/c had trouble keeping up this summer at 90 degrees. last time it needed coolant was 3 years ago.
cd player eats cds! (it doesnt actual ruin them, but its a pain to get it out once its put in there)
speakers need replaced, unless you dont need loud music, if so, they are just fine. They worked fine for me for 5 years.

I cannot think of anything else to highlight at this moment.

You are welcome to come look at it before the auction is over, if you are close by. For everyone else, i've created a couple of videos. One walks around the car, and another one is a test drive up the street.

Some Jeep Cherokees and Chrysler 200s to get standard stop-start in 2015

Wed, 25 Jun 2014

Automakers the world over are striving to find ways to make their models more efficient, and Chrysler has a solution for some versions of the 2015 Chrysler 200 and 2015 Jeep Cherokee (2014 model shown). The Tigershark 2.4-liter four-cylinder in the 200 and the 3.2-liter Pentastar V6 in the Cherokee are getting a slight boost later this year thanks to the addition of Chrysler's Engine Stop-Start system as standard equipment. The company predicts modest gains - a three-percent improvement in fuel economy and a three percent reduction in CO2 emissions with the new tech compared to without it. While it's not much, those who sit in traffic a lot may see a difference.
Chrysler's stop/start system uses a high-speed starter motor to restart the vehicle in a claimed a third of a second. It works by detecting when the vehicle comes to a stop and turning off the engine. A more powerful battery maintains all of the model's accessories while it sits. When the driver lets off the brake, the car starts up again to drive away. There is even a button in the cabin to turn the ESS off, if desired.
The Jeep will be the first to receive ESS in the third quarter of this year to coincide with the start of production of the 2015 model-year version. The 200 will follow in the fourth quarter as a rolling change in production.

Chrysler recalls small number of 2013-2014 cars and trucks over engine debris

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

Chrysler is recalling a small number cars over issues with their 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. The recall, which affects 522 examples of its 2013 Dodge Avenger and Chrysler 200 models, as well as 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot CUVs has to do with potential debris in the balance shaft bearings.
The abrasive stuff can cause the oil pressure to drop, which could lead to the engine stalling or outright failure. This situation could at best leave drivers stranded and at worst lead to a crash.
Chrysler will begin notifying owners, who will need to report in to have the balance shaft module replaced. All repairs are naturally free of charge. Scroll down for the bulletin from NHTSA.
