Known issues on the 2010 300. NHTSA shows 7 recalls for the 2010 300. On certain cars, the power steering pressure hose could pull apart at its crimped fitting and spray fluid onto hot engine parts, risking a fire; dealers replaced hoses as needed. A wireless ignition node latch that may stick on certain cars, a recall covering 37335 vehicles, could let the key come out before the shifter was in park, so the car might roll. A frontal air bag inflator on certain vehicles could build too much pressure and burst on deployment, and owners were told not to drive until it was repaired. Among 138 complaints, air bags lead with 57. Of those complaints, 14 reported a crash, 6 reported a fire and 9 reported an injury.
