Summary

About 2 weeks ago , my car began malfunctioning and randomly shutting off while driving. The car gives no indication that there is an issue before hand which is dangerous. It has happened to me while entering the freeway and while on regular streets. In addition, when this happens, my gearshift somehow gets stuck which makes me unable to move the car. Sometimes I cannot turn the car off, it would get stuck running. The shift would malfunction illuminating other shifts even though it is stuck. This issue has happened to me again in the wee hours of this morning at 3am on a dark road. I feared for me life… I see that this is an ongoing issue in many complaints that I see but there has been no resolve from the manufacturer. Please help.

Summary

Airbag light has came on with dealership replacing the wiring harness under the seat twice. The light is now on for a third time. After online forum research, I learned that wiggling the wiring connections can get the connection back and airbag light to go away. It worked. Numerous complaints of loose wiring. Purchased the vehicle brand new currently with 125k miles. First repair was free. Second was out of warranty and I had to pay for parts.

Summary

GOV driver was being signaled by other passing vehicles to pull over as their vehicle was on fire. The driver was able to safely stop the vehicle and found the engine compartment was on fire. He then called EMS. 1) How fast was the customer traveling when they became aware of the fire? I was at a stop light when I was notified by another vehicle that my car was on fire. I had no idea my car was on fire previously. Once I pulled over I starting seeing smoke come out the vents. I was on the highway on my way to the destination and possibly going 60 MPH but didn’t see any smoke while on the highway. 2) What was the recent usage of the vehicle before the incident? Was it used that day? How long had the vehicle been driving before the incident? The GOV was used maybe once or twice every two months. Yes it was used that day for about 25 minutes before the fire was noticed. 3) Did any vehicle operator notice anything wrong or unusual about the vehicle prior to the incident? Not to my knowledge 4) Any after-market equipment installed? Not to my knowledge

Summary

My car has shut off several times after starting. I have had to turn the car on and then turn it back on. The car has shut off on me a few times while driving. I just purchased this car as used in August of this year (2021). I am afraid this issue could happen while on the highway while cars are going at a high rate of speed. This most recent incident was today as I was going off to work.

Summary

The Chrysler 200's engine keeps suddenly shutting off while driving, mainly while making turns on streets and freeway on/off ramps. There are no warning lights, sounds, or visual cues to indicate any sort of problem. Sometimes the vehicle may just stall, most other times it just turns off and asks that I switch the shifter to park to then turn the vehicle back on. This issue is very concerning as it’s dangerous for the vehicle to shut down in traffic and could prove fatal.

Summary

I've had several issues with the airbag warning light coming on telling me to service the airbag. While the car was covered under the warranty the dealership replaced the part at least three times and eventually told me to stop digging under my driver seat as the wiring harness for the air bags was located there. As anyone with kids may know that isn't the easiest thing to do. Bit even more alarming is the fact that if there is an accident my airbags may malfunction since the warning light is on. And the cost to get it fixed it way to high for me to pay especially knowing that it's just going to happen again in a few months since it's already been replaced a number of times.

Summary

The airbag light comes on constantly, it puts MYSELF or anyone who is in my car at risk. It says to check the airbag and the wiring under the seat is the problem. It's loose. I constantly have to wiggle it for it to go away and a dealership wants to charge 300 dollars for a diagnosis and repair. If I crash, I feel as if the airbag will not deploy and it seems a lot of people online have the same issue when googling the problems.

Summary

My car gave me a service airbag message when I started it on July 31st. I already had an appointment scheduled with a Chrysler dealer to resolve an unrelated recall issue, so I asked them to look into what was causing the airbag issue, as well. They told me that the jumper wiring needed to be replaced on both sides of the vehicle in order to resolve diagnostic code B0020-13. They quoted me over $2,800.00 to fix the issue and told me that my airbags would not go off if I were to get in an accident unless the repairs were made. I am unable to afford this, so I contacted FHA customer service to seek cost assistance, but was told my car is too far out of warranty. My car only has 78,000 miles, so I should not have any safety issues with it. I was told by the technician that this is a common problem with my vehicle. Seeing as this is a safety issue and it is a common issue, I believe it is worth investigating to determine if it is caused by a manufacturing defect. I, like most people, cannot afford this costly of a repair, so I am putting my life at risk each time I drive my car, which I now know will not deploy the safety bags if I get in an accident. To make matters worse, I had to pay a $150.00 diagnostics fee just to find this out.

Summary

Purchased this used 2016 Chrysler 200 from Dan Derry in Cedar Falls. The next day my son was driving this car the air bag light came on. Contacted dealer and they were not aware of any air bag issues with this car and told us we bought AS IS. From what I am reading on line Chrysler has know about this for some time. I see this has a huge safety issue that sounds like it is pretty expensive to fix. And even the people that have forked over the money to fix are still having issues. Took this to our mechanic and they are suggesting to take to dealer as there is a TSB on this issue. Not sure why a safety issue that has nothing to do with how the car is driven but how it was manufactured ends up being the responsibility of the sucker that bought the used car off a dealers lot.

My car is using an excessive amount of oil. I did an oil change on April 4th and by May 4th my car was telling me I need an oil change. I had not even driven it the recommended 3,000 miles before doing an oil change. I added the 1 1/2 quarts of oil that my car showed was low and had only driven it for a 2 hour trip before it needed oil again. It also smelled like it was burning.

Summary

3 ongoing problems. 1. Our car dies while driving. This is Dangerous. Tonight is the 3rd (maybe 4th) time in about a year or year and a half or so. The first two times modesto jeep dodge chrysler determined it was too low on oil (but the mileage was much less than when oil change was due according to my oil change sticker. Also very dangerous because there is never an oil light that comes on the dashboard to warn oil low. About 3 months ago it died 500 miles before oil change supposed to be due. Tonight it died again with no warning. Oil change is not supposed to be due for another 1000 miles. Very scary. No warning light. 2. After I'm stopped at a stop sign or light then during acceleration car jerks. 3. I've had this car about 3 years. The airbag light came on shortly after I owned the car. Never been in an accident in this car.

Summary

I was driving and stopped started taking off and my car shut off in the middle of the road as I was crossing a busy intersection. It would not allow me to cut my hazards on. Then after a couple mins it started back up. The engine light came on and then went away. I received a letter in the mail from FCA on 5/17/21 stating powertrain software needed to be updated. This needs to be labeled as a safety hazard this could have caused an accident. This vehicle shuts off in the middle of the street randomly from this and the dealer is telling me they cannot fix this until Friday. I spoke with someone at the FCA recall center who advised this is doing this because it needs that software update this needs to be labeled as a safety recall not an update.

Summary

My service airbag light comes on and off frequently. sometimes it'll be on when i start my car, and the it'll turn off again when i make a turn, adjust my seat, etc. its a strong belief that im having the underseat wire harness issue that many others are having. i have yet to take it to a mechanic to have it looked at as i don't readily have the money to repair an issue, especially considering I've seen a few people say they have this issue addressed repeatedly. this is a major safety concern and i fear if i happen to get into an accident that my airbag will not deploy because of it.

Summary

A SERVICE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON IN MY 2016 CHRYSLER 200. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP FOR ANOTHER RECALL AND HAD THEM CHECK INTO THE AIRBAG SITUATION. I RECEIVED A CALL FROM DEALER AND WAS ADVISED THAT WIRING HARNESS FOR THE AIRBAG NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND WILL NOT BE COVERED SINCE MY VEHICLE IS OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTY. THE REPAIR IS APPROXIMATELY $1200.00. I DO NOT BELIEVE AS A CUSTOMER I SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS REPAIR. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND ITS NOT A NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE AND I DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THE AIRBAG OR HARNESS TO WHERE I WOULD OF DAMAGED IT. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AND PURCHASING VEHICLES FOR THE LAST 30 + YEARS AND NEVER HAD ANY SUCH ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE WITH NO SUCCESS INTO TAKING THIS SERIOUSLY. I WOULD LIKE TO PROVIDE A FORMAL COMPLAINT ON THIS AND SEEKING TO SEE WHAT MY OPTIONS ARE IN THIS SITUATION. CHRYSLER CANNOT EVEN ADVISE WHICH AIRBAG IS DEFECTIVE WHICH I FIND HARD TO BELIEVE IN THIS TIME AND AGE WITH ALL THE TECHNOLOGY PROVIDED. I FIND THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD BE PRO ACTIVE IN ADDRESSING THIS REPAIR BEFORE ANYTHING COULD HAPPEN TO CAUSE POSSIBLE HARM OR EVEN CASUALTIES.

Summary

I PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW OFF THE DEALERSHIP SHOWROOM IN SUMMER OF 2017. A COUPLE DAYS AFTER HAVING IT, I WAS DRIVING DOWN A STREET IN MY HOMETOWN AND THE VEHICLE JUST SHUT COMPLETELY OFF. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC AND BEGAN TO PANIC BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY 'FIXED' THE ISSUE. SHORTLY AFTER, WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT, THE CAR SHUT OFF AGAIN IN TRAFFIC AND TOOK A WHILE TO RESTART. EVERYTHING IN THE VEHICLE TURNS OFF. I AGAIN TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY 'FIXED' THE ISSUE. HERE WE ARE JUST LAST WEEK, 08/15/2020 AND I'M DRIVING ON A MAJOR THRU WAY AND THE VEHICLE CUTS OFF AGAIN. THERE HAVE NEVER BEEN ANY WARNING SIGNS, LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD/ REASON FOR ME TO BELIEVE SOMETHING WAS WRONG. MY VEHICLE BARELY HAS 50K MILES. AFTER LOOKING UP MY VIN TO SEE IF THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL (THERE ISN'T), I DID NOTICE THAT THE YEAR PRIOR (2015) SAME MAKE AND MODEL HAVE A RECALL FOR THE SAME ELECTRICAL ISSUE I'VE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT. THIS MATTER IS SERIOUS AS THE CARS TURNS OFF UNEXPECTEDLY AND COULD CAUSE A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT. I WILL UPLOAD MY PAPER WORK FROM THE DEALERSHIP THE FIRST 2X. I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE VEHICLE SINCE 8/15/20 AS I'M AFRAID THAT SOMEONE WILL GET HURT. I'VE CALLED TO REPORT THE ISSUE AT THE 888 NUMBER LISTED BUT THE PHONE JUST HANGS UP. AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE I LIVED IN NIAGARA FALLS, NY AND PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM JOE CECCONI'S CHRYSLER COMPLEX. I CURRENTLY LIVE IN CHARLOTTE, NC WHERE THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT OCCURRED.

WHILE IN MOTION THE PARKING BREAK CAN ENGAGE AT ANY SPEED AND IT'S PLACEMENT ON THE CAR ITSELF IS DANGEROUS AND JERKS THE CAR IF PRESSED WHILE MOVING THEREFOR COULD CAUSE EXTREME HARM. FOR THE SAFETY OF MYSELF, ANY OR ALL PASSENGERS, OR DRIVERS NEARBY, IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT IT NEEDS TO BE MOVED TO A LOCATION THAT ISN'T NOT EASILY REACHABLE AND ALSO NOT ALLOWED TO EVEN REMOTELY ENGAGE WHILE MOVING. I ONLY OCCURRED WHIPLASH AND MY FAST THINKING AND LUCK OF HAVING THE ROOM TO SLOW DOWN, BUT OTHERWISE IT IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS AND IT SHOULD NEVER ENGAGE U LESS THE BRAKES ARE BEING PRESSED AND DEFINITELY NOT AT SPEEDS UP TO OR OVER THE SPEED LIMITS.

Summary

WHILE TRAVELING ON ROADWAY THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT ILLUMINATES WITH THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT. IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED BY THE SERVICE POWER STEERING WARNING MESSAGE AND THE VEHICLES IS SHUTDOWN BY THE PCM. TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING, POWER, AND CONTROL. THE VEHICLE TURNS OFF AND DISPLAYS A MESSAGE TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK TO START. IT WILL NOT CRANK OR TURNOVER UNLESS YOU DISCONNECT THE BATTERY AND RESET IT. THE "SAFETY FEATURE" OF THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING FAILURE IS TO KILL THE ENGINE COMPLETELY WITHOUT REGARD TO IT'S CURRENT STATUS OF TRAVEL AND MOVEMENT. OUR DEALER, EARNHARDT DODGE IN GILBERT AZ, HAS NO IDEA WHY THIS IS OCCURRING AND WANTS TO CHARGE $600 TO ATTEMPT TO DETERMINE WHY THE FUEL PUMP REFUSES TO ENGAGE WHILE THE SERVICE POWER STEERING WARNING MESSAGE REMAINING. THIS IS ONE OF THE FIRST YEARS OF ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING IN THIS VEHICLE AND WE ARE BEGINNING TO SEE NUMEROUS OCCURRENCES ACROSS THE WEB OF THIS ISSUE WITH THE 200 HAPPENING AROUND 45K TO 60K MILES. OURS HAS 60K MILES. SINCE THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT APPEARS TO OCCUR A FEW YEARS INTO OWNERSHIP, DEALER MECHANICS HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE CAUSE IS OR HOW TO REPAIR IT SINCE THEY HAVE NO EXPERIENCE WITH IT THUS FAR. IT IS AN OBVIOUS SAFETY ISSUE TO SHUT DOWN THE FUEL PUMP WHILE TRAVELING AT ANY SPEED AND SHUT DOWN THE ELECTRONIC CONTROLS RESULTING IN A "DEAD STICK" VEHICLE WITH NO WAY TO STEER OR BRAKE SAFELY. PLUS, ONCE YOU DO MANAGE TO GET THE ISSUE DIAGNOSED, NO "EXPERTS" ARE ABLE TO DETERMINE WHAT THE ORIGINATING ISSUE IS WITHOUT REPLACING TOTAL STEERING SYSTEMS AND ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS. FROM A CONSUMER STANDPOINT THIS WILL SURELY BECOME AN INCREASINGLY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR DRIVERS IN THE CHRYSLER 200 AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROADWAYS. I PRAY SOMEONE LOOKS INTO THIS ISSUE THOROUGHLY AND CAN ASSIST THE PUBLIC AND OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES IN SECURING A RESOLUTION. *TR

VEHICLE WENT IN FOR AN AIRBAG LIGHT TWICE RIGHT BEFORE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 75K MILES. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS TO HAVE REPLACED A WIRING HARNESS UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT BOTH TIMES. JUST SLIGHTLY OVER 75K MILES, THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. THIS TIME THEY ADVISED THE WHOLE WIRING SYSTEM NEEDS REPLACED AND THAT IT WON'T BE COVERED. GOT IN TOUCH WITH CHRYSLER DIRECTLY WHO STATED THEY ARE WILLING TO ONLY PAY FOR THE $1200+ PART BUT THAT I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR APPROXIMATELY $400 IN LABOR. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION EACH TIME THE LIGHT CAME ON. TYPICALLY WHEN ENCOUNTERING A SLIGHT BUMP ON THE INTERSTATE. SAFFORD JEEP CHRYSLER RAM IN WINCHESTER VA IS THE DEALERSHIP THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW AND CONTINUED SERVICE AT THE SAME LOCATION. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN FOR 2 WEEKS NOW AND CURRENTLY THERE AT THIS TIME. ACCORDING TO A BRIEF INTERNET SEARCH, THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON COMPLAINT YET NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED. IF THIS CAN BE SETTLED IN ANY MANNER, I RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT CHRYSLER PROVIDE A REFUND FOR WHAT I'M ABOUT TO PAY TO GET MY VEHICLE BACK UP AND RUNNING.

WHY ARE AIRBAGS THAT HAVE NEVER BEEN DEPLOYED NOT ALWAYS COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY? I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY A THIRD PARTY TECH THAT THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY WITH THIS LIGHT ON. THIS PROBLEM IS WIDELY KNOWN AND CHRYSLER SEEMS TO THINK OUR SAFETY IS NOT WORTH COVERING THIS ISSUE.

Summary

I AM ASKING YOU TO ISSUE A SAFETY RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. YOU INVESTIGATED THE 2015 MODEL FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND IT WAS RECALLED AS A RESULT. THE 2016 IS JUST AS DANGEROUS. IS THERE A REASON WHY THE LIVES OF PEOPLE WHO DRIVE 2015 MODELS ARE MORE VALUABLE THAN MINE OR MY CHILDREN? IT TURNS OFF WHILE DRIVING WITH NO WARNING AND LEAVES ME IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS! THE STEERING CUTS OFF TOO. I HAVE TO FIRST STRUGGLE TO CONTROL THE STEERING, SHIFT INTO PARK, PUSH START, AND WAIT, WHILE I BRACE MYSELF FOR THE IMPACT THAT IS ABOUT TO SHATTER MY SPINE OR KILL MY CHILDREN! IT BEGAN AS SOON AS I HIT 60K MILES A FEW WEEKS AGO AND HAPPENS EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT. IT HAPPENS MOSTLY WHEN I AM TURNING, SOMETIMES WHEN BRAKING FOR A LIGHT, AND SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T ACTUALLY TURN OFF, IT JUST SEEMS LIKE IT IS SUDDENLY IN NEUTRAL AND MAKES REVVING SOUNDS WHEN I HIT GAS BUT WONT GO, THAT'S WHEN MESSAGE SAYS 'SERVICE TRANSMISSION'. I WAS MAKING A U TURN AND ALMOST HIT A POLE! IT MAY START UP WITH FIRST TRY, OR A FEW TRIES. IT HASN'T HAPPENED IN HIGH SPEEDS ON HIGHWAY BUT THAT MAY BE BECAUSE I AM TOO AFRAID TO GO THAT ROUTE ANYMORE. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. I PAID CASH FOR THIS VEHICLE AND SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY A PENNY TO FIX THIS, BUT IF I OR MINE ARE INJURED I WILL SPEND EVERY CENT I HAVE ON A LAWSUIT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING IN THIS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT MATTER.

Summary

AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. BOUGHT THE CAR USED FROM A DEALERSHIP IN JUNE 2019. VIN # IS NOT ON A RECALL LIST FOR TAKATA AIRBAGS. THE CAR IS AT COLLEGE, OUT OF STATE, WITH MY GRANDDAUGHTER. THE LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP IN HER AREA WILL NOT FIX THE AIRBAG PROBLEM FOR FREE BECAUSE THE VIN # IS NOT ON A RECALL LIST. I'M AT A LOSS SINCE THE COST OF REPAIR IS HIGH. I LIVE ON SOCIAL SECURITY & SHE IS GOING TO SCHOOL ON SCHOLARSHIPS. DOES SHE HAVE TO BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND POSSIBLY BE HURT BEFORE CHRYSLER WILL REPAIR THE AIRBAG PROBLEM-FREE? THE DESCRIPTION FOR THIS PROBLEM SAYS THE AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY IF THERE IS AN ACCIDENT. HOW DO I KNOW IF THE CAR SHOULD BE ON A RECALL LIST? THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THE LIGHT HAS COME ON. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN MOTION, ON A CITY STREET AND ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURS. THE LATEST OCCURRENCE WAS ON OR ABOUT THE DATE LISTED BELOW AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS STILL ON.

Summary

MY 200 VEHICLE SHOWED AN AIR BAG LIGHT 6 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE, ABOUT MAY, 2016. THEN THE VEHICLE WAS NOT RECALLED SO I IGNORED IT. THE OIL CHANGE AT THE DEALER AFTER MAY, 2016 DATE FAILED TO ADDRESS THE LIGHT. IT REMAINS ON TO THIS DATE. REPAIR ON TIRE THAT SHOWED A LIGHT WAS REFUSED ON JUNE 7, 2017. THIS TIRE LIGHT REMAINS A PROBLEM. NOW, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT GO UPHILL WITHOUT STALLING AND WILL NOT RUN WHEN IT RAINS. THE FUEL SEEMS TO BE BLOCKED BECAUSE I KEEP PUMPING THE GAS TO GO UPHILL AFTER IT STALLS. THE CAR CUTS OFF WHEN I MAKE LEFT OR RIGHT TURNS. NOW, I WARM THE VEHICLE FOR 10 MINUTES TO SHOW THE ENGINE IS READY. THE ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ON FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS. I FAILED EMISSION TESTING IN SEPT. 2019. THE TUNE UP DONE THIS MONTH DID NOT HELP. THE ENGINE LIGHT AND OTHER MATTERS CAUSED THE EMISSION TESTING TO FAIL. MY COMPLAINT IS DIRECTED TO THE GAS PROBLEM, AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL DASHBOARD PROBLEM FOR THE PAST YEAR ALONG WITH THE TIRE LIGHT.

THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH SEVERAL CARS BEHIND ME AND HAVE ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED BECAUSE OF IT. TAKING INTO DEALERSHIP TOMORROW TO SEE WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO DO.

Summary

STARTING IN OCTOBER 2018 THIS CAR HAS CUT OFF ON ME FOR NO REASON AT ANY GIVEN TIME. I WILL BE DRIVING AND IT WILL CUT OFF AND TELL ME TO SHIFT INTO PARK. SOMETIMES IT CRANKS BACK UP OTHER TIMES IT DOESN'T. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO LANDMARK CHRYSLER FIVE DIFFERENT TIMES. EACH TIME I AM TOLD THAT IT'S A DIFFERENT PROBLEM. AND EACH TIME THE CAR DOES THE EXACT SAME THING AGAIN. THIS HAS ENDANGERED MY LIFE AND THE LIFE OF MY TWO YEAR OLD SON. AFTER COMPLETING TWO DIFFERENT OIL CONSUMPTION TEST LANDMARK(MORROW,GA) STILL HASN'T BEEN ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM SO THE WARRANTY COMPANY WON'T FIX THE CAR. THEY KNOW THAT IT'S USING TOO MUCH OIL BUT THEY CLAIM THEY DON'T KNOW WHY. THIS CAR IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT. THEY JUST TRY TO GET YOU TO TRADE IT IN FOR ANOTHER CAR WITH A HIGHER PAYMENT. THIS PROBLEM REALLY NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED BEFORE IT CAUSES SOMEONE THEIR LIFE. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS WHEN THIS CAR HAS CUT OFF WITH NO WARNING AND NARROWLY MISSED BEING HIT BY A SEMI TRUCK. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER CORPORATE BUT THAT HAS GOTTEN ME NO WHERE BECAUSE THE PERSON I SPEAK WITH (WILL IN CUSTOMER CARE) DOES NOTHING AND CLAIMS THAT HE DOESN'T HAVE A SUPERVISOR THAT I CAN CONTACT.

I'VE BEEN INTO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OVER 6 TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUES. THIS CAR IS SO UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. MY CAR CREATES A VERY HARD JERKING WHEN SWITCHING GEARS OR SPEEDING UP. IT ALSO SHAKES WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONING IS ON AND I AM ONLY GETTING ABOUT 15 MI TO THE GALLON WHEN IT SHOULD BE 27. I'VE LEFT MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS SINCE I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE, WORKED WITH THE DEVICE DEPARTMENT, WORKED WITH CHRYSLER AND THE SITUATION AND SAFETY CONCERN IS STILL NOT RECTIFIED. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. IT'S MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION AND I WOULD LIKE TO KEEP MYSELF, MY 3 BABIES, AND OTHER DRIVERS SAFE. THANK YOU!

I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS MY AIRBAG WIRING HARNESS AND IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED UNDER BOTH SEATS BUT IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THERE IS NO WAY I WAS PAYING FOR THIS WHEN THE CAR WAS PRACTICALLY NEW ONLY APPROXIMATELY 42502 MILES AND I WAS HAVING ONGOING ISSUES WITH MY AIRBAG LIGHT COMING ON. WELL NOW I AM REALLY FEELING LIKE THIS RECALL IS LARGER THAN IT IS PRESENTED. ALSO, THE VEHICLE HAS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WHEN I GET THINGS DONE TO MY VEHICLE. SUCH AS MY TRANSMISSION NEEDING SERVICE, THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT, THE ABS, THE TRACTION, AND ELECTRONIC PARK BRAKE FAILURE. ALL THESE LIGHTS CAME ON JUST FROM REPLACING A HUB (BEARINGS) ON MY PASSENGER SIDE. MY MAIN COMPLAINT IS ON THE AIR BAG ISSUE.

WENT TO RESTART CAR AND IT WOULD NOT RESTART. MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS WERE MADE TO START CAR AND WHILE ALL LIGHTS AND BEEPING CAME ON CAR WOULD NOT START AGAIN OVER A 15 MIN PERIOD. CAN NOT PUSH BREAK DOWN AND WHEN PUSH THE START BUTTON NOTHING HAPPENS. CAR HAS ALSO STALLED OUT MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING IN THE LAST YEAR. CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP STATES ITS DUE TO OIL AND IT APPEARS CAR IS BURNING OIL VERY FAST. CHRYSLER STATES THAT THE CAR WILL NOT START DUE TO A SAFETY MECHANISM TO NOT ALLOW THE ENGINE TO OVERHEAT DUE TO LOW OIL. AS OIL HAS APPEARED FULL AND CHECKED MULTIPLE TIME UNSURE AS TO WHY THE CAR WOULD DO THIS.

THIS EVENING WHEN DRIVING MY CAR THE VEHICLE STALLED OUT AND CUT OFF A NUMBER OF THREE TIMES WITHIN A 10 MINUTE SPAN. ONCE WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN OUT OF THE PARKING LOT OF MY JOB, SECOND WHEN COMING TO A FULL STOP AT THE PARKING LOT ENTRANCE AND LAST AS I WAS BEGINING THE MERGE ONTO THE HIGHWAY FROM AN ON RAMP. THE DAY PRIOR THE CAR SHUT OFF COMPLETELY A TOTAL OF 5 TIMES AT VARIOUS POINTS THROUGHOUT THE DAY. MY VEHICLE IS REGULARLY MAINTAINED BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHERE I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE BRAND NEW. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHT OR INDICATORS THAT THERE WAS AN ISSUE. THE ONLY NOTIFICATION WAS TO "SHIFT CAR TO PARK TO START ENGINE". THIS ISSUE NEARLY CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT WHEN ATTEMPTING TO MERGE ONTO THE HIGHWAY THIS EVENING. THIS IS HIGHLY CONCERNING AS THIS ISSUE COULD POTENTIALLY COST MY FAMILY OR MYSELF OUR LIVES SHOULD THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF AT THE WRONG MOMENT. I'VE SEARCHED NUMEROUS SITES ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND IT APPEARS THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE WITH THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL AS WELL AS ONES PRODUCED PRIOR TO 2016. THIS CONCERN IS LIFE THREATENING AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS SUCH WITH SOME FORM OF REMEDY FROM THE MANUFACTURER.

Summary

SINCE ABOUT 20,000 MILES MY CAR HAS SMELLED OF ANTI-FREEZE. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK IT IN, GENE'S CHRYSLER SAID MY CABIN AIR FILTER WAS FLOODED WITH COOLANT AND THAT MY RADIATOR WAS LEAKING AT THE SEAMS. THIS WAS CHANGED AT 36,000 (MARCH 2018) MILES. AFTER THEY REPLACED THE RADIATOR, I STILL SMELLED IT AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS "SPRAY" THAT WAS LEFT OVER FROM WHEN IT WAS ORIGINALLY BROKEN. AT 57,000 MILES (JAN 2019) I STILL SMELL IT. I HAD TO TAKE MY CAR BACK TO GENE'S FOR AN AMBIENT TEMP SENSOR AND THEY NOTICED MY RADIATOR IS LEAKING, AGAIN, AND REPLACED IT. NOW, KEEP IN MIND, I AM NOT LEAVING COOLANT PUDDLES ANYWHERE NOR IS MY TEMP SENSOR FOR THE COOLANT REPORTING ANYTHING THAN WHAT IS NORMAL. I AM AGAIN SMELLING ANTI-FREEZE.GENE'S AGAIN TELLS ME THAT IT'S JUST FROM THE SPRAY.

MY CAR WAS DRIVING JUST FINE UNTIL I WENT TO REVERSE OUT OF THE PARKING SPOT I WAS PARKED IN. I PUSHED THE BRAKE DOWN TO RELEASE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY BRAKE GOT HARDER TO PUSH DOWN. IT DISPLAYS ON MY SCREEN THE 'BRAKE' IS ON BUT IT'S NOT. IT ALMOST FEELS LIKE MY BRAKES WENT OUT BUT IT'S SO HARD TO PUSH THEM DOWN. LUCKILY IT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS IN A PARKING LOT RATHER THEN ON A MAIN ROAD OR EVEN THE HIGHWAY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT WAS MY BRAKE BOOSTER. IT'S NO WAY AFTER TWO YEARS OF HAVING THIS CAR THAT ANYTHING THIS SERIOUS WITH MY BRAKES SHOULD'VE HAPPENED AT ALL.

AMBIENT TEMPERATURE WAS APPROXIMATELY 90F. 1320: SLOWED TO APPROXIMATELY 35MPH AS WE APPROACHED A RED LIGHT. I NOTICED WHITE SMOKE IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR. WE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AT THE LIGHT AND OBSERVED WHITE AND BLACK SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I IMMEDIATELY TURNED OFF THE AIR CONDITIONER AND CHECKED THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE (25% OF MAX). I PULLED INTO THE RIGHT TURN LANE AND DROVE APPROXIMATELY 50 FEET TO AN EMPTY PARKING LOT. WE EXITED THE VEHICLE AND OBSERVED ORANGE FLAMES UNDERNEATH THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. I INSTRUCTED MR. BAKER TO CALL 911 AND REPORT THE FIRE ALONG WITH OUR LOCATION. I SEARCHED FOR A FIRE EXTINGUISHER UNDER THE SEATS AND IN THE TRUNK WITHOUT SUCCESS. A FEW SECONDS LATER A GOOD SAMARITAN IN A WORK TRUCK STOPPED AND KNOCKED DOWN THE FLAMES WITH HIS FIRE EXTINGUISHER. MILEAGE = 42,351

WHEN DRIVING, A 'SERVICE AIRBAG SYSTEM' MESSAGE APPEARS AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON. THIS HAPPENS EVERY FEW MINUTES WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAYS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALERSHIP SEVERAL MONTHS AGO AND WE WERE TOLD IT HAS TO DO WITH A PLUG UNDER THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT WHICH BENDS EASILY. IT WAS FIXED, BUT HAS STARTED HAPPENING AGAIN. THERE ARE SEVERAL REPORTS ONLINE ON VARIOUS SITES SUCH AS GOOGLE AND YOUTUBE REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE. MY CONCERN IS THAT THE AIRBAGS WON'T DEPLOY IF WE WERE TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. I FEEL THE PLUG SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED WITH ONE THAT WILL NOT MALFUNCTION. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AND IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT.

MY RIGHT PASSENGER AIR BAG SENOR IS MALFUNCTIONING, HOWEVER THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT TELL ME WHY OR HOW THE SENOR WAS BROKEN. I SEE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON SOME CHRYSLER VEHICLES THAT WERE MADE IN 2015 WHICH MINE WAS, BUT THEY CLAIM MY CAR IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THE RECALL. WASHINGTON ' FIAT-CHRYSLER IS RECALLING 78 2015 CHRYSLER 200 SEDANS TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT AFFECTS THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND AIRBAG, ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION. "DURING SERVICE WORK, THE AFFECTED VEHICLES MAY HAVE HAD EITHER THE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION MODULE OR THE SEAT CUSHION FOAM OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT REPLACED INSTEAD OF BOTH PIECES TOGETHER, WHICH MAKE UP A COMPLETE CALIBRATED SET," NHTSA SAID IN ITS RECALL SUMMARY. "IF BOTH PIECES WERE NOT REPLACED TOGETHER, THE OCCUPANT DETECTION AND CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM MAY NOT BE PROPERLY CALIBRATED AND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG MAY IMPROPERLY DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY." THERE ARE NO ACCIDENTS OR INJURIES LINKED TO THE RECALL, FIAT-CHRYSLER SPOKESMAN ERIC MAYNE TOLD EDMUNDS. THE AFFECTED 200 SEDANS WERE BUILT FROM APRIL 7, 2014 TO AUGUST 3, 2015.

I HAVE NOTICED THAT MY 2016 CHRYSLER 200 IS BURNING OIL AT AN ALARMING RATE. I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT WAS LOW BECAUSE THERE IS NO SENSOR THAT SHOWS UP ON THE DASH LETTING ME KNOW THE OIL WAS LOW. THE "OIL CHANGE LIFE" IS STILL AT 20% LIFE BUT MY CAR HAS BURNED THRU OVER 4 QUARTS OF OIL IN 4,000 MILES!! I FIND THIS EXTREMELY CONCERNING NOT TO MENTION THE POSSIBLE ENGINE DAMAGE THAT CAN BE DONE WITH A CAR BURNING THIS MUCH OIL. THERE SHOULD BE AN ALERT TO DRIVERS LETTING THEM KNOW THE OIL LEVELS ARE LOW. I HAVE NEVER HAD A CAR THAT BURNED OIL LIKE THIS!

IN THE LAST MONTH, MY 2016 CHRYSLER 200 HAS STALLED OUT WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT ANY NOTICE. UPON TRYING TO RESTART, IT STRUGGLE TO TURN OVER. I HAVE TO PUT IN PARK AND WAIT A FEW MINUTES BEFORE IT WILL START UP AGAIN. THERE IS NO WARNING BEFORE THE CAR DIES EITHER. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH TO LET ME KNOW THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG. EACH TIME MY CAR STALLED I WAS ON A BUSY HIGHWAY AND LUCKILY NO CAR WERE COMING OR THEY WERE ABLE TO GO AROUND ME. I WAS SCARED I WAS GOING TO GET HIT AND KILLED WHEN MY CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BUSY HIGHWAY. I HAVE READ THE NUMEROUS 2015 AND 2016 MODELS HAVE THE SAME SAFETY ISSUE. THE 2016 200 NEEDS TO BE RECALLED TO FIX THIS SERIOUS, POSSIBLE FATAL ISSUE OF STALLING OUT WITHOUT WARNING. EACH TIME THIS HAPPENED TO ME WAS WHEN I WAS AT A STOP AND THEN STEPPING ON THE GAS, OR WHEN I WAS AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED (APPROX 10 MPH). I HAVE DOCUMENTED THE DATES AND TIMES EACH TIME MY CAR HAS STALLED OUT.

CRUISE CONTROL IS GETTING STUCK! I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN JUNE, 2018 AND EVERY TIME I SET THE CRUISE CONTROL ON THE CAR IT GETS STUCK WHILE I'M TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY. IT'LL WORK FINE ON FLAT ROADS AND GOING UPHILL BUT WHEN THE CAR GOES DOWNHILL AND THE SPEEDOMETER INCREASES PAST WHAT I HAVE THE CRUISE CONTROL SET ON' THE ENGINE REVS UP, THE RPMS GO UP TO 5 OR 6 (SOUNDS LIKE IT'S GOING TO EXPLODE!). I PRESS THE CRUISE CONTROL CANCEL BUTTON AND IT DOESN'T STOP IT, I EVEN MASH THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT WON'T STOP IT! I HAVE TO CONTINUOUSLY HOLD THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS WHILE DRIVING UNTIL THE CRUISE CONTROL KICKS OFF. I'VE NOTICED THERE IS A RECALL ON CERTAIN 2016 CHRYSLER 200S DUE TO THE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM BUT WHEN I CALLED CHRYSLER AND GAVE THEM MY VIN NUMBER THEY SAID MY CAR ISN'T AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. BUT IT IS GETTING STUCK LIKE THE OTHER VEHICLES AND I NEED HELP!! PLEASE TELL ME WHAT TO DO.

Summary

AS I WAS IN MOTION GOING ABOUT 20 MPH WITH THE CAR IN DRIVE (D), THE CAR DISPLAYED A MESSAGE AS SEEN IN THE PHOTO THAT STATES SHIFT TO PARK (P) TO START. AS, THAT MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE BRAKES LOCK UP WHILE THE CAR IS SLOWING DOWN SO YOU CANNOT SHIFT THE CAR TO PARK UNTIL THE CAR HAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. ONCE THE CAR COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP, I SHIFTED MY CAR BACK TO PARK AND TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR. THE CAR WOULDN'T RESTART RIGHT AWAY. THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION WOULD MAKE A NOISE AS IF IT WERE TRYING TO START WITH THE RPM'S FLUCTUATING TO ABOUT 3 (3000 RPMS) THEN GO BACK TO 0 THEN JUMP TO 1 (1000 RPMS) THEN BACK TO 0 RPMS WHERE THE ENGINE WOULD GIVE OUT. I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT A MINUTE, WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC, THEN IT WOULD RESTART AND RUN NORMALLY AGAIN. I CALLED CHRYSLER CORPORATE, DUE TO THE FACT OF HAVING THE WHOLE TRANSMISSION REPLACED WHILE UNDER WARRANTY DUE TO A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM THAT GREW AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR. LESLIE FROM CHRYSLER GAVE ME CASE ID #: 34798487. I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT WITH DARCARS CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OF SILVER SPRING LOCATED ON 12511 PROSPERITY DR, SILVER SPRING, MD 20904 TO BRING THE CAR TO GET SERVICED AND THE ISSUE LOOKED AT ON AUGUST 7TH 2018 AT 10:45 AM.

EXACTLY ONE MONTH AFTER PURCHASING MY CHRYSLER 200 NOV 28, 2017BTHE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON DURING SHORT DRIVE TO THE MOVIES, AND THE ENGINE BEGAN TO STALL WHILE WAITING AT A RED LIGHT. I HAD TO PAY ALMOST $400 TO REPLACE IGNITION COIL. THEN A MONTH AGO, 06/27/2018 ANOTHER IGNITION COIL FAILED COSTING ME $250, LUCKILY WHEN THE COIL FAILED I WAS IN LINE AT A STARBUCK'S DRIVETHRU. NOW ANOTHER COIL HAS FAILED LEAVING THE CAR UNDRIVEABLE AGAIN, AND NOW UNABLE TO AFFORD REPAIR. UNFORTUNATELY THE WARRANTY I PURCHASED WITH THE VEHICLE DOES NOT COVER THIS PART AND AFTER RECENTLY READING REVIEWS ON THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE I HAVE COME TO LEARN THAT THIS IS A RECURRING ISSUE THAT HAS NOT BEEN CALLED OUT, YET THIS VEHICLE IS STILL BE SOLD TO PEOPLE. I STRONGLY FEEL THAT IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN, BECAUSE IN THIS LAST INCIDENT MY COIL WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND MY CAR BEGAN TO STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC DURING A HEAT ADVISORY. I ALSO STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT THE PART THE IGNITION COILS ARE FAULTY AND ARE CAUSE FOR GREAT CONCERN.

Summary

"TAKATA RECALL" I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN JULY 2016. IN NOVEMBER 2017, THE VEHICLE BEGAN STALLING AND SHUTTING OFF COMPLETELY WHILE I WAS DRIVING. IT LOSES POWER AND A THE SCREEN TELLS ME TO SHIFT TO P TO START VEHICLE. SOMETIMES IT WOULD START RIGHT AWAY, OTHER TIMES IT WOULD TAKE SEVERAL TRIES FOR IT TO RESTART. THERE WAS NO SPECIFIC TIME WHEN IT WOULD OCCUR. I COULD JUST BE PULLING OUT OF PARKING SPACE OR COMING OFF THE EXPRESSWAY AFTER DRIVING 30 MILES OR SO. IT WOULD HAPPEN WHEN I WAS TURNING LEFT, RIGHT OR GOING STRAIGHT. I TOOK THE CAR IN AND WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED A THROTTLE SERVICE THAT, OF COURSE, WAS NOT COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY. THEY SAID THAT THEY "RECOMMEND" A THROTTLE SERVICE EVERY 25,000 TO 30,000 MILES. I WAS AT 38,000 MILES. A RECOMMENDED SERVICE SHOULD NOT CAUSE YOUR VEHICLE TO COMPLETELY CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. SO, I PAID $184.00 FOR THE THROTTLE SERVICE. THREE DAYS LATER, THE VEHICLE STARTED JERKING TERRIBLY WHILE I WAS DRIVING, PARKING, REVERSING, ETC. THE RPM DIAL WOULD SPIKE UP TO 3.5 OR SO, BUT IT WAS CONSTANTLY JERKING WHILE DRIVING. IT FELT LIKE I WAS DRIVING OVER A LARGE GRAVELED ROAD THE ENTIRE TIME I WAS DRIVING. I TOOK THE CAR BACK IN TO THE DEALER AND WAS INITIALLY TOLD THAT IT WAS MY TRANSMISSION WHICH WAS COVERED UNDER MY EXTENDED POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. HOWEVER, AFTER I LEFT THE VEHICLE, I WAS CALLED AND TOLD THAT IT WAS NOT MY TRANSMISSION, BUT IT WAS A BAD COIL AND SPARK PLUG. THIS, OF COURSE, WAS NOT COVERED BY MY WARRANTY. I WAS CHARGED $443 FOR THIS. I AM CURRENTLY WAITING TO SEE WHAT GOES WRONG NEXT. AS I HAVE ONLY HAD IT FROM THE DEALERSHIP FOR 2 DAYS NOW.

AT THE MOMENT THE LIGHT IS STILL ON AND WAITING TO GET MY CAR IN TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CHRYSLER, EVEN THOUGH IT'S A NEW CAR, BUT I NEED TO GET TO WORK AND A BUS CAN'T GET ME THERE. I HOPE THIS IS A SMALL FIX AND I CAN HAVE MY AIRBAG SYSTEM WORKING AGAIN. I WOULD FEEL SAFE. I HAVE READ AND HEAR SIMILAR COMPLAINTS OF NEW OWNERS WITH THE THE ISSUES AND DEALERSHIPS REFUSING TO SERVICE THE WORK, EVEN ON CARS WITH 30,000 MILES.

SINCE I'VE BOUGHT THE CAR, UPON ACCELERATING, STOPPING, PRETTY MUCH DOING ANY DRIVING THE CAR WILL BUBBLE UNDER AND JERK AS IF YOU'RE MANUALLY SWITCHING SHIFTS. IT HAS ONLY GOTTEN WORSE OVER THE 2 YEARS I'VE OWNED THIS CAR AND NO ONE CAN SEEM TO HELP BECAUSE THERE'S NO "CODE" THAT FINDS THE PROBLEM. MY CAR ALSO, WILL LOCK THE WHEEL WHILE I'M DRIVING, LOCK THE BRAKE AND GAS AND TURN COMPLETELY OFF AS IF THE BATTERY DIED AND I CAN'T PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL OR ANYTHING SINCE IT IS LOCKED. THIS HAS ALMOST CAUSED MY TO BE IN MULTIPLE VEHICLE CRASHES. THE CAR IS NOW SHAKING AND STILL HAVING A BUBBLY FEEL UNDER THE CAR AS IF IT'S HAVING A HARD TIME STARTING UP WHILE I'M DRIVING.

Summary

VEHICLE IS STALLING, COMPLETELY SHUTTING OFF, LOSING POWER WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS DONE IT AS 20MPH, 45MPH, GOING STRAIGHT, TURNING LEFT, TURNING RIGHT. THERE IS NO NOTIFICATION THAT THIS IS HAPPENING. THE ONLY THING I CAN TELL IT'S HAPPENING IS IT LOOSES POWER, STEERING LOCKS UP AND THE CAR DASH SAYS "SHIFT TO P TO START VEHICLE". WHEN I DO THAT, THE CAR TAKES AT LEAST 30-456 SECONDS TO COMPLETELY START BACK UP AND RUNNING. IT ACTS LIKE IT DOES NOT WANT TO START BACK UP. I HAVE TRAVELLED COUNTY ROADS, CITY STREETS, HIGHWAYS AND IT HAS DONE IT ON EACH ONE OF THEM. THIS IS NOT OK AND SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE BLOWN OFF WITH NO RECALL. I HAVE 2 SMALL CHILDREN THAT IS 99.9% OF THE TIME IN THE CAR WITH ME. I CAN NOT HAVE THIS CONTINUE TO HAPPEN WITH NOTHING BEING DONE OR RESOLVED OF THIS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO 2 DIFFERENT CHRYSLER DEALERS AND THEY CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHAT IS GOING ON WITH IT BECAUSE THE CAR IS NOT THROWING ANY CODES WHEN IT HAPPENS. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, NOTHING.

THE OTHER THING IS THAT THE TRANSMISSION WHILE ACCELERATING SEEMS TO TAKE A WHILE TO SWITCH GEARS AND THEN THE CAR JERKS REALLY HARD WHEN IT FINALLY SHIFT GEARS. I'VE TAKEN IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY JUST SAID THAT THEY CHECKED IT AND CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG BUT THAT THEY HAVE HAD SIMILAR COMPLAINTS BUT THAT "ITS JUST THE FACT THAT THE CAR IS A 4 CYLINDER." IT'S VERY SCARY PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC.

REMOVED FOOT FROM BRAKE TO APPLY FOOT TO GAS PEDAL WITH A LITTLE MORE PRESSURE THAN USUAL DUE TO THE SLOP, TO KEEP CAR FROM ROLLING BACKWARDS.. THE CAR KEEP ROLLING IN REVERSE DUE TO THE DECLINING SLOP OF THE PARKING LOT. CAR DID NOT ENGAGE INTO DRIVE AND THE ENGINE REVVED UP TO HIGH RPMS AND IF NOT FOR A FAST REACTION FROM ME RETURNING MY FOOT TO BRAKE AFTER REALIZING WHAT WAS GOING ON, I COULD OF EASILY RAN INTO THE PEOPLE THAT I NOTICED EARLIER. NOT GOOD! WHEN I PUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDDLE TO STOP THE CAR, THE CAR WENT INTO GEAR AND THE CAR SHOOK VIOLENTLY DUE TO THE HIGH RPMS. THE PEOPLE IN THE PARKING LOT WERE ALSO STARTLED. THIS IS THE PRIMARY CAR FOR MY WIFE AND I ASKED HER IF THE CAR HAS NOT GONE INTO GEAR BEFORE. TO MY ASTONISHMENT SHE SAID ONCE. THIS CAR NOW SITS IN THE GARAGE AWAITING THE CHRYSLER DEALER TO PICK IT UP 27,997 MILES. THIS KIND OF PROBLEM COULD EASILY DO HARMFUL BODILY INJURY TO A PEDESTRIANS OR MY WIFE. .

EVEN WITH THE SEAT ADJUSTED ALL THE WAY DOWN, THE MIRROR COMPLETELY "HIDES" OTHER VEHICLES AT INTERSECTIONS. ALTHOUGH A "LOW TECH" PROBLEM, IT IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS DESIGN DEFECT.

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN MOTION THE VEHICLE HAS ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN AND UNDER DIFFERENT CONDITIONS WITH DIFFERENT DRIVERS. THE VEHICLE SURGES FORWARD AND THE TACHOMETER JUMPS OVER 6 RPM. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION, WHILE TRYING TO MERGE ONTO A HIGHWAY, THE ACCELERATOR WAS PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND ALMOST RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES WITH NO CLEAR IDEA FROM THE TECHNICIANS AS TO WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. THE FIRST TIME IT WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP, IT SPENT TWO WEEKS AND THEIR TECHS COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. IT WAS RECOMMENDED THAT A "BLACK BOX" RECORDING DEVICE BE INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE. THE DEVICE IS CUMBERSOME AND A POTENTIAL HAZARD TO DRIVERS WHO MUST TRY TO PUSH THE BUTTON ON THE DEVICE WHILE THE VEHICLE IS UNINTENTIONALLY ACCELERATING. THE VEHICLE DUPLICATED THE PROBLEM AGAIN WHEN IT WAS GIVEN BACK. ON THE THIRD TRIP TO THE DEALER, THE BLACK BOX INFO WAS RELAYED TO CHRYSLER AND THE VEHICLE IS STILL SITING THERE AFTER A WEEK AND CHRYSLER TECHS HAVE ISSUED A DO NOT LET THE CUSTOMER BACK IN THE VEHICLE ORDER. BASICALLY, CHRYSLER HAS SEIZED MY VEHICLE, TO WHICH I AM STILL PAYING FOR, AND THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE IS THEREFORE CANNOT FIX IT. A COMPLAINT HAS BEEN FILED WITH CHRYSLER CORP.

PURCHASED CAR APRIL 2016, INCIDENT ON OR ABOUT 12 JULY 2016. FOLLOWING IS HAND DELIVERED LETTER OF 22 JULY 2016 TO DEALER'S SERVICE MANAGER AND SALES MANAGER REGARDING THE PROBLEM: "ON A RECENT ROAD TRIP, I LEARNED THAT GOING DOWNHILL ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 65, THE VEHICLE'S TACHOMETER PEGS OUT AND THE SPEED INCREASES TO MORE THAN 85 MPH. THANKFULLY THERE WERE NO VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME OR I WOULD HAVE PROBABLY COLLIDED WITH THEM, AT AT THAT SPEED WOULD HAVE PROBABLY BEEN KILLED. FORTUNATELY I HAD THE REFLECTS TO HIT THE BRAKE AND DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL. WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL DEACTIVATED, THE ENGINE REVVED TO A POINT I FEARED IT WOULD BLOW UP. AFTER SEVERAL VERY LONG SECONDS THE ENGINE RETURNED TO NORMAL. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND REMAINED IN THE CAR UNTIL I STOPPED SHAKING AND MY HEART STOPPED RACING." AFTER ONE WEEK HAVING NO RESPONSE I AGAIN WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND NO ONE KNEW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT. FINALLY I GOT THE SALES MANAGER TO READ THE LETTER. HE SAID HE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, SEE THE SERVICE MANAGER, MORE OR LESS THE SAME. I THEN EMAILED CHRYSLER CORP VIA THEIR WEBSITE AND PROVIDED THE INFORMATION. RESPONSE WAS CORP REQUIRED THEIR TECH TO WITNESS THE DEALER'S ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSIS. BACK TO SVC MGR WHO CONTACTED THE TECH AND ARRANGED FOR TEST THE FOLLOWING WEEK. CAR IN MONDAY, READY FRIDAY. CORP TECH'S DETERMINATION WAS THE 9 SPEED HAD NO BRAKING FEATURE AND THE BEST ADVISE WAS TO USE THE BRAKE. BACK TO CORP WITH: "IT IS SO DISAPPOINTING AND REPREHENSIBLE TO LEARN THAT CHRYSLER IS ENDANGERING BUYERS OF THEIR PRODUCT BY KNOWINGLY DENYING RESPONSIBILITY FOR A FAULTY AND DEADLY DESIGN. AT THE OUTSET MY DEMAND WAS EITHER FIX THE PROBLEM AS I DO LIKE THE CAR, OR A TOTAL REFUND OF THE PURCHASE PRICE. I RECEIVED NEITHER. MY ONLY RECOURSE IS A LAWSUIT, THAT WOULD LAST LONGER THAN MY MONEY.DO NOT BUY!

Summary

BOUGHT THIS 2016 CHRYSLER 200 S 4 CYCLINDER IN JULY 2016 WITH ONLY 4900 MILES ON IT. CAR WAS A DEALER PROGRAM CAR STILL UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY. TODAY, 8/22/2016 AT 6157 MILES THE CAR STALLED WHILE MY TEENAGE SONS (3 OF THEM) WERE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS TO SCHOOL (THIS IS THE CAR THEY DRIVE EVERYDAY). THE CAR STALLED WHILE DRIVING THREE SEPARATE TIMES LOSING ALL POWER WITH A MESSAGE IN THE DASH READING "SHIFT TO P". ONCE SHIFTED TO PARK THE CAR DID START BUT ONLY AFTER MAKING AN ODD NOISE WHILE PUSHING IN THE IGNITION BUTTON. NEEDLESS TO SAY THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO HAVE A CAR LOSE POWER WHILE ON THE ROAD ESPECIALLY WITH NEW TEENAGE DRIVERS. BOUGHT THIS CAR IN LARGE PART BECAUSE OF ITS SAFETY RATINGS BUT THIS CLEARLY IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF SAFE. I WILL TAKE TO DEALER IN THE MORNING TO SEE WHAT THEY SAY. LOTS OF OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT SAME ISSUE ALTHOUGH MOST SEEM TO BE WITH THE 2015 NOT 2016. NONETHELESS, HOW CAN ONE FEEL SAFE AGAIN PUTTING THEIR CHILDREN BEHIND THE WHEEL? NO IDEA WHAT CAUSED THIS ISSUE. THE DRIVETRAIN DOES NOT SHIFT SMOOTHLY EITHER PARTICULARLY WHEN TRANSITIONING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE WHEN COMING TO COMPLETE STOP.

Summary

I HAD JUST FINISHED REVERSING TO ADJUST MY PARALLEL PARKING IN A RESIDENTIAL STREET. I PLACED THE HAZARD LIGHTS ON AND PUT THE CAR INTO "P". AFTER MY DAUGHTER GOT IN, I TOOK OFF THE HAZARD LIGHTS AND PLACE MY CAR ON "D". IN ORDER FOR ME TO CHANGE GEARS I HAVE TO PRESS DOWN THE BRAKE, AND AS I LET GO TO START DRIVING I FELT MY CAR DO A QUICK TWO "TUGS" AS I WAS GOING FORWARD AND INTO A DRIVE-WAY ON MY LEFT. WHEN I WAS TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL, I FELT IT START TO GO STIFF TO WHERE I HAD TO TURN IT HARD FOR IT TO MOVE. THE CAR STARTED TO SLOW DOWN WHILE I PRESSING THE GAS, COMING TO A HALT BEFORE MY FRONT WHEELS COULD GO ON THE DRIVE-WAY. I PRESSED THE BRAKES BUT THEY WERE HARD WHERE I COULD NOT PRESS DOWN ON THEM AND I LET THEM GO. I PRESSED DOWN ON THEM AGAIN HOPING THEY WOULD WORK, BUT THEY WERE HARD. AT THAT POINT THE CAR SOUNDED LIKE IT TURNED OFF ON ME EVEN THOUGH THE SIGN ON MY IGNITION READ "RUN". I LOOK DOWN AND MY GEAR IS ON "D" BUT FLASHING ON AND OFF. AT THIS POINT I AM STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF A RESIDENTIAL STREET (SIDEWAYS) BECAUSE MY CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. I LOOK AT THE SCREEN IN MY DASHBOARD AND ITS FLASHING SOMETHING ABOUT "SHIFT" AND THE BATTERY LIGHT IS ON. I WAS PANICKING SO I DID NOT FULLY READ WHAT IT WAS FLASHING AND FORTUNATELY WAS ABLE TO CHANGE THE GEAR TO "P" EVEN THOUGH I COULD NOT PRESS DOWN THE BRAKES BECAUSE THEY WERE VERY STIFF. I TURNED OFF MY CAR, AND RESTARTED IT. AT THAT POINT MY CAR WORKED LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. I KNOW MY CAR IN A WEIRD WAY TURNED ITSELF OFF BECAUSE MY A/C WAS NOT BLOWING COOL AIR ANYMORE (WINDSHIELD WAS STARTING TO FOG BECAUSE OF THE RAIN) UNTIL I RESTARTED THE CAR. I WILL SAY THAT A FEW MONTHS PRIOR MY "PARKING BRAKE" TURNED ON ON ITS OWN, AND I HAD MISTAKENLY THOUGHT I HAD DONE IT EVEN THOUGH I HAD NOT TOUCHED IT. I WAS ADJUSTING MY CAR INTO A PARKING SPOT AND HAD JUST CHANGED FROM "R" TO "D".

Summary

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING IN TRAFFIC AS THE FOOT BRAKE GAVE OUT. HE HAD TO STEP AS HARD AS HE COULD WITH BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE IN ORDER TO GET IT TO STOP. AT THE SAME TIME THE PARKING BRAKE ENGAGED ITSELF AND MADE DRIVING ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. YOU COULDN'T TURN IT OFF. AFTER TURNING OFF THE CAR, THE BRAKES STILL WON'T WORK, BUT THE PARK BREAK WAS BACK TO NORMAL. IF YOU GET THE CAR TO A HALT AND PUT IT IN PARK, IT KEEPS ON DRIVING, AS SOON AS YOU DARE TO SLIGHTLY LET GO OF THE BRAKE. YOUR ONLY WAY TO STOP THIS CAR IS TO ENGAGE THE PARK BRAKE AND HOPE THAT IT GRABS. CAR IS AT THE DEALERSHIP WITH NO INFORMATION AVAILABLE, CHRYSLER IS CONTACTED. THIS IS FOR SURE SCARY, GIVEN THAT MY SON WAS IN THE CAR AS WELL.

Summary

WE HAD ONLY HAD OUR 2016 CHRYSLER 200S FOR AROUND 3 WEEKS. WHILE HEADING HOME TRAVELING EAST ON STATE RT 149 FROM WEST FRANKFORT, IL., WE HEARD A LOUD THUMP LIKE SOMETHING JUST HIT THE PASSENGER SIDE OF OUR CAR. WE PULLED THE CAR OFF AT THE CHURCH JUST 1 BLOCK DOWN THE ROAD, GOT OUT AND LOOKED TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED, NO ANIMALS HAD HIT THE CAR, NO OBJECTS WAS LAYING IN THE ROAD, AND NO ONE WAS MOWING, BUT WE HAD A STRAIGHT GASH WITH A DENT IN THE SIDE OF OUR REAR PASSENGER DOOR. IT WAS GETTING CLOSE TO DUSK AND I THOUGHT SOMETHING CAME OFF THE CAR. THE NEXT MORNING I FINALLY NOTICED THE PASSENGER FRONT WHEEL HAD THE LUG NUT MISSING AND THE STUD WAS GONE. THE RIMS CLEAR COAT IS SCRATCHED WHERE IT FELL OFF AND SLUNG BACK AND HIT THE SIDE OF OUR CAR. I CALLED OUR LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALER AND COME TO FIND OUT IT HAD BOLTS NOT STUDS. I HAD THEM ORDER ONE FORM ME. I ASKED THE SERVICE MANAGER WHAT THE CORRECT TORQUE WAS FOR THE BOLTS, INCASE ANY OTHERS WERE LOOSE. HE SAID,"103 FT/LBS". I CHECK THE TORQUE THE REST OF THE LUG BOLTS AND COME TO FIND EVERY FRONT ONE WAS LOOSE. 1 MORE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND 2 ON THE DRIVERS SIDE TOOK NEARLY A 1/4 TURN TO REACH TORQUE. THE REST OF THE FRONT BOLTS WERE AROUND 1/8 TURN FROM BEING TORQUED. I ONLY FOUND 1 ON THE REAR THAT WASN'T CORRECTLY TORQUED. I HAVEN'T SEEN BOLT LUGS ON AN AMERICAN CAR IN ALL MY LIFE. I HAD THE DEALER INSTALL THE NEW BOLT AND HAD HIM DOUBLE CHECK THE TORQUE ON THE OTHERS. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE AND REPORTED THE PROBLEM. I ALSO CALLED THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM AND DROVE IT DOWN FOR HIM TO GET PICTURES AS WELL OF THE DAMAGE. THE DEALER CONTACTED THE REGIONAL SERVICE MANAGER AS WELL ABOUT THE PROBLEM. TODAY CHRYSLER SUPPORT SAID THEY ARE NOT GOING TO FIX THE DAMAGE, BECAUSE ITS NOT A WARRANTY COVERED ISSUE.OUR LAST 15 MODEL 200 WAS BOUGHT BACK BY CHRYSLER, BECAUSE OF ALL THE PROBLEMS.

I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I STEPPED ON THE ACCELERATOR TO GO AND COULD NOT MOVE!! THE CAR REFUSED TO SHIFT! I LOOKED DOWN TO CHECK AND MAKE SURE IT WAS IN DRIVE AND IT WAS! I WAS NEARLY REAR ENDED, PEOPLE HAD TO DRIVE AROUND ME. IT TOOK AROUND 20 TO 30 SECONDS FOR MY VEHICLE TO SHIFT INTO GEAR AND MOVE FORWARD. WHILE TRYING TO MOVE FORWARD IT REVVED TO AROUND 5,000 RPM. I HAVE A CHILD WITH ME. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF SOMEONE REAR ENDED US? I KNOW CHRYSLER HAS NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSIONS TO THESE VEHICLES AND I AM SORRY BUT THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ON THE ROAD WITH PROBLEMS LIKE THIS!!

THE VEHICLE WAS IMMEDIATELY DROPPED OFF AT THE DEALERSHIP AND I HAVE NOW HAD A RENTAL VEHICLE FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS WITHOUT ANY RESPONSE FROM THE DEALERSHIP WHATSOEVER. I WILL BE FILING A CLAIM FOR LEMON LAW, AS I HAVE NOT EVEN MADE MY FIRST CAR PAYMENT YET.

THE BRAKES ON THIS CAR WHILE BACKING UP MADE AN AWFUL NOISE FROM DAY 1. I THOUGHT AT FIRST IT WAS NORMAL. THOUGHT IT WAS JUST NEW BRAKES THAT HAD TO BE BROKEN IN. THEN I KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG BECAUSE WHEN I PUT IT IN DRIVE MY BACK BRAKES WERE LOCKED AND WOULDN'T RELEASE. LOOKED DOWN TO SEE IF I HIT THE E BRAKE, THAT WAS NEVER THE CASE. THE BRAKES IN REAR HAVE LOCKED UP SEVERAL TIMES AND EVERY TIME IT WAS BACKING UP AND PUTTING IT IN DRIVE. I HAD A 2015 WITH THE SAME ISSUES AND WAS REPLACED BY THE LEMON LAW WITH A 2016 AND NOW EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES. DEALER OPENED START CASE WITH CHRYSLER BUT CURRENTLY HAS NO FIX FOR THESE CARS. DEALER ALSO STATED DUE TO THE SIZE OF THE ROTORS/BREAKS CAUSES THE SQUEALING/LOCKING NOISE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE IN CASE THE BREAK DECIDE TO LOCK UP OR NOT WORK, CURRENTLY WAITING FOR MORE "REPAIRS".
