NHTSA has 6 owner complaints on file for this car[1]. Brakes are the group named most often[2].
Most reported problems
Owners filed complaints across several parts of the car, and here are the groups from the largest to the smallest.
- Brakes. 3 complaints[2]. In the stories we read, owners describe rotors that warped or pulsed well before they expected, along with a dealer who called it normal wear. One owner also mentions a steering problem soon after buying the car.
- Unknown or other. 2 complaints[6]. These reports do not point to one named part.
- Structure. 1 complaint[7]. An owner describes a fender on the passenger side that was not fitted well and kept coming loose.
- Air bags. 1 complaint[8]. An owner describes a collision in which the air bags did not deploy, followed by a service warning for the system.
- Back over prevention. 1 complaint[9]. An owner describes backing into a pole without the rear sensors giving a warning.
- Lane departure. 1 complaint[10].
Recalls
Newest first. Each recall covers only certain vehicles, so not every 2023 300 is necessarily included.
- Parking Brake (24V112), February 2024. About 1,808 vehicles are potentially affected across every model and year the recall names. The recall names these risks: a crash, injury, the car rolling away. Dealers do the repair free of charge.[11]
Fuel economy
EPA ratings depend on the engine and drive. Annual fuel cost uses EPA's current fuel price assumptions, not prices when the car was new.
