Market analysis
How much does a used Chrysler 300 ignition switch cost?
Asking prices for a used Chrysler 300 ignition switch are unusually spread out: the top listing asks about 7 times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 148% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $99.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, ID 68299957, lists at a $61 median, while ID 68299961 commands $99, a 62% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.
Model year matters too: 2015 units carry the lowest median at $96, while 2017 tops the table at $99. Parts from 2015–2024 are interchangeable, so if the 2015 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 10 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Chrysler 300 sits 1% below the Mercedes S Class ($100), 1% below the Hyundai Elantra ($100), and level with the Mercedes GLE Class ($99) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
Buying a used ignition switch: what to check
- Inspect contact board for arc burning: Check multi-pin electrical harness plugs for brown heat discoloration caused by worn internal switch contacts.
- Test key cylinder detent feel: Turn the key through Accessory, Run, and Start positions to ensure crisp detents without key binding or slop.
- Verify immobilizer antenna halo inclusion: Confirm the plastic transponder receiver ring surrounds the key cylinder and has undamaged wiring terminals.
- Check mechanical steering lock bolt: Verify the spring-loaded column locking bolt extends and retracts smoothly when inserting and removing the key.
- Plan for key matching or re-keying: Ask if matching door keys are included, or budget for a lock technician to re-key the cylinder to your original key.
