2002 Chrysler 300M Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Chrysler's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Chrysler 300M? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your 300M’s towing capacity. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • How often does my 300M transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Chrysler 300M’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Chrysler. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Chrysler 300M transmission fluid leak? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Chrysler 300M, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
  • Who does Chrysler 300M transmission repair? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair 300M transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Is it okay to drive a 300M with a transmission fluid leak? Driving your 300M with a transmission fluid leak is highly discouraged. Transmission fluid is vital to the smooth operation of your transmission system, and a leak can put the entire system at risk. A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
