Looking for a top-quality ABS ring for your Chrysler 300 C Touring? At CVJoint24, you will find model-specific components designed to keep your braking system operating at its best....
The Chrysler 300 C Touring is a powerful car that demands top-quality components to maintain its performance and safety. The ABS ring, also known as a reluctor ring or sensor ring, is a small yet critical part of the vehicle's safety system. For a heavy car like the 300 C Touring, it is especially important that the braking system responds accurately under hard braking or on slippery surfaces. We supply ABS rings specifically engineered to meet the technical requirements of this exact model, ensuring seamless integration with the vehicle's existing sensors and electronics. The Chrysler 300 C Touring is renowned for its robust design and comfort, but even the most well-built car requires regular maintenance. The ABS ring is a component that is often overlooked until a fault develops. Choosing a replacement part from us gives you a product matching original specifications, which is vital to ensure that the electronic stability control and anti-lock brakes continue to work together seamlessly.
The ABS ring on a Chrysler 300 C Touring serves as an information source for the car's ABS control unit. Fitted to the CV joint or wheel hub, the ring features a series of teeth or magnetic poles. As the wheel rotates, these teeth pass an ABS sensor, generating an electrical pulse. The control unit counts these pulses to determine wheel speed. If a wheel starts to lock under braking, the system detects this via the ABS ring and reduces braking pressure to that specific wheel. This allows the driver to maintain steering control even in severe conditions, which is essential for road safety. Beyond preventing wheel lock-up, the ABS ring plays a key role in modern electronic stability programmes (ESP). By continuously monitoring each wheel's speed, the car's computer can intervene by braking individual wheels to correct a skid. For a rear-wheel-drive car such as the 300 C Touring, this system is particularly crucial for maintaining stability when accelerating on slippery surfaces. A damaged ring can therefore compromise multiple safety systems simultaneously.
The most common issue with an ABS ring on a Chrysler 300 C Touring is corrosion or cracking. Because the ring is frequently exposed to road dirt, weather and road salt, rust can build up underneath it and cause it to expand until it splits. A clear sign of failure is the ABS warning light illuminating on the dashboard. You may also notice the ABS activating unnecessarily at low speeds on dry tarmac, typically felt as pulsing or vibrations through the brake pedal. When a ring cracks, the signal sent to the sensor becomes irregular, tricking the computer into registering that a wheel has locked up. Addressing this promptly is vital, as it directly compromises braking performance and safety systems.
Selecting the correct ABS ring for your Chrysler 300 C Touring requires attention to detail. Differences occur depending on the model year and whether the car is rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. The most important details to verify are the tooth count on the ring and its internal diameter, as even slight variations can render the part unusable. We strongly recommend selecting your vehicle by make, model and engine to ensure you get a replacement matching the exact factory specifications. Filtering by your vehicle details displays components verified for your specific model variant, minimising the risk of incorrect orders and unnecessary delays during installation. During fitting, it is also crucial to thoroughly clean the mating surface on the CV joint. Rust deposits under the old ring must be completely removed so that the new ring sits flush and does not fracture during fitting. Many mechanics choose to gently heat the new ring so it expands and slides easily into position. As it cools, it contracts to create a dependable press fit that will last for years.

When one drivetrain component shows wear, adjacent parts on the same car frequently require inspection too. By checking these exact pages for the Chrysler 300 C Touring, it becomes easier to determine whether the issue lies with the ABS ring itself or in another connected part of the drivetrain.
This is particularly relevant on models where vibrations, play and noises can transfer symptoms across several driveline components. A quick check of related categories reduces the risk of replacing the right type of part while overlooking an adjoining component that contributes to the same problem.

The most common symptoms are the ABS warning light illuminating on the dashboard or feeling vibrations and pulsation in the brake pedal when braking at low speeds, even on dry surfaces.
On the Chrysler 300 C Touring, it is often possible to replace just the ABS ring if the CV joint itself is otherwise in good condition and shows no signs of noises or play.
This is most often caused by corrosion. Rust forms underneath the ring on the CV joint, creating outward pressure that eventually causes the hardened steel ring to crack.
Yes, if the ABS light is on or the anti-lock braking system is not operating correctly, the car will fail its roadworthiness inspection as it is a critical safety system.
Yes, dimensions and tooth counts can differ between the front and rear axles. Always select your exact model and engine to find the correct specification for your fitting position.
No complex specialist tools are required, but you will need standard tools to remove the wheel and CV joint, as well as a wire brush to thoroughly clean the mating surface before installation.
