300C: Power Window shanannigans
I owned a 2005 300 Limited, now I have a 2007 300C. Both cars have exhibited interesting inconsistent issues with power window buttons. Currently, on the new 2007 - the driver window won't perform the AUTO up feature. At first I thought there might be a trick as to when the AUTO feature engauges. But it behaves inconsistently and I cannot determine what's causing the problem. On my 2005 I had rear window switch issues where the switches flat-out stopped working.
Is it a prevelant problem on the 300s? Window switches being bad?

There is a method for re-setting the auto up feature described in your owners manual. The re-set procedure does work, because I have done it to my drivers side window when it has defaulted to the manual mode a couple of times.
I GAVE THE DEALER THE SERV.BULLETIN #. THEY WILL ORDER THE DOOR MODULES. I'M WAITING 4 WEEKS. THEY SAY --NATIONAL BACK-ORDER. I CAN'T FIND THE RE-SET PROCEDURE IN MY OWNERS MANUAL. CAN YOU TELL ME WHERE TO LOOK. I HAVE AN 06 300 C.
In regards to a heater core failure on a 3 yr old car, that is very discouraging. I have not heard of this behavior on Chrysler 300s, but it might be worth starting a new thread focusing on heater cores - and see who responds. Hidden within the power window thread it might mask an otherwise bigger problem. Heater cores are horrible because 1) they're so difficult to typically get at and 2) they really smell up the car and ventilation.
:surprise: Curious!
Sorry to hear you are having concerns with the power windows on your 2006 Chrysler 300C. Sounds like you may have a wiring concern or possibly bad switches.
You may want to consider having the vehicle diagnosed by your local authorized Chrysler Service Department or a trusted mechanic.
Good Luck.
