Why does my Chrysler 300 turn off while driving?

I have a 2010 Chrysler 300 and it’s been a great car until recently. In the past week or so, it keeps shutting off when I’m driving at low speeds. What’s causing my Chrysler 300 to turn off while I’m behind the wheel?

Sorry to hear that your 2010
Chrysler 300
is giving you issues. Unfortunately, the problem is difficult to diagnose, so you may have to go down a list of potential issues. Here are some of the most common:
  • Low transmission fluid or a broken torque converter, which doesn’t give the transmission enough power to shift.
  • Low fuel
  • Broken fuel pump or fuel injectors, which means that the gas isn’t reaching the engine.
  • Corrosion on the battery cables or terminates which prevents your battery from charging through the alternator.
  • Bad alternator, which means your 300 is running on the battery alone, which will slowly run out of a charge to keep the car running.
When a car reaches more than 10 years old, it’s a great time to review your car insurance. So if you can diagnose the problem, why not save a few bucks by shopping with the
