CAR HAS TERRIBLE GAS MILEAGE. WELL BELOW GOVT AVERAGE/WINDOW STICKER. I WAS ONLY GETTING 17 MPG WHERE THE MIN CITY RATING WAS 23. AFTER MANY VISITS TO THE DEALER AND DEALING WITH THE TERRIBLE CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE, THE SERVICE DEPT FINALLY DID THE TSB THAT DEALT WITH THE TRANSMISSION CALIBRATION. THEY REFLASHED/UPDATED THE TRANS SOFTWARE AND NOW I'M GETTING 24 MPG WHICH IS THE BARE MINIMUM I BASICALLY SHOULD GET. HIGHWAY IS STILL FAIRLY BELOW SPECS AND I DO NOT GET NEAR THE COMBINED 28 MPG EITHER. I HAD ALMOST 4700 MILES ON THE CAR BEFORE THEY REALIZED THEY NEEDED TO DO THE TSB ON IT. NOW OF COURSE AFTER SPENDING MUCH MORE MONEY ON GAS THAN I SHOULD HAVE, CHRYSLER DOESN'T CARE AT ALL AND BASICALLY LAUGHED AT ME WHEN I ASKED FOR FAIR COMPENSATION SINCE IT WAS THEIR FAULT THEY LET A CAR OUT OF THE FACTORY THAT WAS NOT CALIBRATED CORRECTLY NOR DID THE DEALER DO THE TSB BEFORE THE CAR WAS SOLD. I DOUBT I'LL EVER BUY ANOTHER FCA VEHICLE AGAIN IN THE FUTURE. ALSO THE CAR HAD JERKY TRANSMISSION ISSUES THAT PROMPTED THEM TO LOOK INTO THE TRANS TO BEGIN WITH THEN THEY FOUND THE TSB INFO.

THE CHRYSLER 200S 2015 MODELS WIPER SEEMS TO BE INSUFFICIENT TO WIPE OUT THE WATER FROM THE WINDSCREEN WHILE DRIVING DURING HEAVY RAINS.DRIVING IN RAIN IS REALLY VERY DIFFICULT WHEN COMPARED TO OTHER CARS.IT MIGHT BE DUE TO THE INCLINATION OF THE WINDSHIELD THAT ALL THE WATER FROM ROOF FLOWS DIRECTLY TO WINDSHIELD AND MAKING THE WIPERS INSUFFICIENT.THIS MAKES THE SAFETY OF THE DRIVER AND OTHERS TO BE IN QUESTIONS AS THE VISIBILITY IS REDUCED.

PURCHASED THIS CAR IN THE SPRING, THE CAR HAD 100 MILES. ALTHOUGH THE CAR IS AN AUTOMATIC THE CAR WAS DOWN SHIFTING HARD, MENTIONED THIS TO SERVICE WHERE THEY STATED THE CAR WAS GETTING USED TO MY DRIVING.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION ON MY CAR THAT THE POWER DISTRIBUTION CENTER (PDC) ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR ON MY VEHICLE MAY HAVE SPREAD ELECTRICAL TERMINALL(S). A SPREAD ELECTRICAL TERMINAL(S) COULD CAUSE INTERMITTENT ELECTRICAL CONNECTION(S) TO CERTAIN ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS. THIS MAY RESULT IN AN ENGINE STALL OR A SHIFT TO NEUTRAL EVENT. EITHER OF THE CONDITIONS MAY CAUSE A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING. SO I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP AND SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE FIXED SINCE I AM VERY CONCERNED AND DO NOT WANT TO CRASH FOR SURE. MY FIRST APPOINTMENT WAS FOR OCTOBER 22ND AT 8AM. WHEN I GOT TOSERVIC DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID OH SHE FORGOT TO PUT YOU DOWN FOR THE RECALL SO WE CAN'T FIX TODAY BECAUSE WE DO NTOT HAVE THE PARTS.

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
