2015 Chrysler 200 complaints

I AM FILING A COMPLAINT TO EXPRESS MY FRUSTRATION AND ANGER. ALSO BECAUSE IT STATES ON THE RECALL NOTICE I RECEIVED THAT I CAN SUBMIT A WRITTEN COMPLAINT IF THE DEALERSHIP "FAILS TO REMEDY THIS DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME". THERE IS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE, THE TRANSAXLE PARK ROD. THE RECALL NOTICE ADVISED TO CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP ON OR AFTER MAY 1, 2015 TO SCHEDULE A SERVICE APPOINTMENT. I DID SO A WEEK LATER AND BROUGHT MY VEHICLE IN ON SATURDAY, MAY 16TH. A FEW HOURS AFTER DROPPING OFF MY VEHICLE, I RECEIVED A CALL INFORMING ME THAT MY VEHICLE DID NOT PASS THE RECALL TEST AND THAT THEY NEEDED TO KEEP MY VEHICLE FOR A FEW DAYS. I THEN RECEIVED A CALL THE FOLLOWING MONDAY, MAY 18TH AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE PART NEEDED TO FIX MY VEHICLE IS ON BACK-ORDER!!! I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TODAY BECAUSE IT'S BEEN TWO WEEKS NOW THAT I'VE BEEN WITHOUT MY VEHICLE. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE PART IS STILL ON BACK-ORDER AND THAT WE'RE ON THE WAITING LIST. WHAT THE [XXX] IS THAT?! I UNDERSTAND THAT MY VEHICLE IS BEING REPAIRED WITHOUT CHARGE BUT THIS IS AN EXTREME INCONVENIENCE AND IS RIDICULOUS. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THE PART IS NOT AVAILABLE OR A LIMITED SUPPLY OF IT. TO HEAR THE DEALERSHIP TELL ME THAT THEY ARE UNSURE WHEN THEY WILL BE RECEIVING THE PART AND THAT I'M ON THE "WAIT-LIST" IS VERY UPSETTING AND FRUSTRATING. I EVEN ASKED IF I COULD JUST GET MY CAR AND HAVE THEM CALL ME WHEN THE PART ARRIVES AND THEY TOLD ME "NO BECAUSE IT ISN'T SAFE TO DRIVE." OKAY, I UNDERSTAND THAT, I GET I

9 SPEED TRANSMISSION HAS ISSUES. UPSHIFTS 2 TO 3 ARE HARSH AND SOMETIMES SLAMS IN AFTER WAITING TOO LONG TO SHIFT. WORST, THE VEHICLE ACTUALLY ACCELERATES WHEN SLOWING DOWN AND DOWNSHIFTING FROM 5 TO 4 (NO FOOT ON THE THROTTLE). THIS IS REPEATABLE CONSISTENTLY. SEVERAL TIMES NOW DURING QUICK STOPS (I.E. SOMEONE WALKS OUT ON THE ROAD) THE VEHICLE HAD A BURST OF ACCELERATION WHILE HARD BRAKING. DEALER ADVISES NOTHING THEY CAN DO - CHRYSLER REP TOLD THEM TO TELL CUSTOMERS "THIS IS NORMAL". UNFORTUNATELY THE UNEXPECTED BURST OF ACCELERATION IS NOT REPEATABLE WHEN NEEDED. VEHICLE HAS ALREADY BEEN CHECKED FOR RECALL AND HAS GONE THROUGH 2 SOFTWARE UPDATES. NOTE: I DO NOT BRAKE WITH MY LEFT FOOT. DURING BRAKING THE CAR IS ACCELERATING ON IT'S OWN.

IN SEPTEMBER OF 2014 I PURCHASED A NEW 2015 200S. IN MAY 2015 I TOOK MY CAR IN TO GET THE RECALL WORK DONE AND AN OIL CHANGE AT MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP JERRY ULM CHRYSLER OF TAMPA AND THIS IS WHERE MY NIGHTMARE BEGINS. SHORTLY AFTER THIS VISIT, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK THE CAR BACK AND 3 DAYS AFTER THIS THEY REPLACED MY TRANSMISSION. I PICKED UP MY CAR AFTER THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AND I STARTED TO HAVE ISSUES WITH THE CAR HESITATING AND IT WOULD ALMOST FEEL LIKE IF I WAS DRIVING A 20 YEAR OLD CAR WITH A BAD TRANSMISSION. I TOOK THE CAR BACK AND THEY STATED THAT SEVERAL OTHER THINGS WERE CORRECTED. THE CAR STILL HAS A SERIOUS ISSUE WHEN YOU DRIVE, I TOOK IT BACK FOR A TEST DRIVE WITH A TECH. AFTER THE TEST DRIVE HE STATED "THE JERKY DRIVE IS NORMAL WITH THIS CAR". AS I TOLD HIM, IF THE CAR DROVE THIS WAY WHEN I TEST DROVE IT, I WOULD HAVE NEVER PURCHASED THE CAR. I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM FROM THE GM AT JERRY ULM CHRYSLER OF TAMPA AND TO DATE I HAVE NOT HEARD FROM HIM. THE CAR CONTINUES TO DRIVE POORLY AND THE OTHER DAY AS I WAS DRIVING, THE LETTER D STARTED TO FLASH AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD SAFELY. I WASNT ABLE TO POWER OFF THE CAR OR TAKE IT OUT OF GEAR FOR ALMOST 2 MINS. IT STOPPED FLASHING AND I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND I POWERED IT OFF. AFTER A FEW MINS, I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND IT WAS WORKING AGAIN.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN ROAD HEARD A NOISE WHEN I HIT A BUMP AND CONTINUE HEARING NOISE WHEN HITTING BUMPS. THEN ON SATURDAY MORNING NOTICED BRAKE GRINDING NOISE THEN SATURDAY AFTERNOON WHEN DRIVING HOME THE CALIPER CAME OFF AND DAMAGED MY RIM. WHEN I JACKED CAR UP TO INSPECT I NOTICED THE RETAINING BOLTS FOR THE CALIPER MISSING

ON A FEW OCCASIONS GOING DOWN HILL ON A HIGHWAY, THERE IS AN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. THEN THE TRANSMISSION WILL STALL INTO GEAR GOING DOWNHILL AS WELL. THE ENGINE WILL BE AT VERY HIGH RPM FOR THE SPEED I GO WHICH IS 45-50. OFTEN WHEN I BACK OUT IN REVERSE, THE BRAKES MAKE A HUMMING NOISE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE STOPPING, THE VEHICLE MADE AN ABNORMAL NOISE. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE PARKING BRAKE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED.

PURCHASED CARD IN JULY 2014. FIRST OCCURRENCE, 5 APRIL; 2ND OCCURRENCE, 1 MAY; 3RD OCCURRENCE, 15 MAY. WHILE SLOWING DOWN (APPROX. 45MPH) TRANSMISSION SHIFTS FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL. HAD TO MOVE TO SLOWER LANE, STOP, SHIFT TO PARK AND THEN TO DRIVE. THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN 2 HOURS, HAZARDOUS ROAD WARNING LIGHT APPEARED. DEALER HAS CHANGED TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE, TESTED "PIN CONNECTIVITY", CONTACTED CHRYSLER CORP, CAR STILL IN THE SHOP. EACH TIME THE DEALER TEST DROVE IT, THEY EXPERIENCED THE SAME CONDITIONS. NOT SURE OF NEXT STEP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE DEALER STATED THAT AN UNKNOWN SENSOR WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED ON FIVE SEPARATE OCCASIONS. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHEN HE ACCELERATED AND SHIFTED GEARS, HE COULD HEAR A LOUD RATTLING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,000.

WHILE DRIVING CAR HOME ON MY FIRST DAY FROM THE DEALER THE ENGINE STALLED AT 40 MPH I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND RE-START THE CAR, START DRIVING AGAIN THINKING NOTHING OF IT IT STALLED AGAIN AND AGAIN 2 BLOCKS FROM HOME. NEXT MORNING BRINGING BACK TO DEALER IT STALLED 3 TIMES ON REVERSE GETTING OUT OF DRIVEWAY. ONLY 100 MILES ON NEW CAR AND IT'S AT THE DEALER FOR MAJOR ISSUE, I DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING THE CAR SPECIAL WITH MY 5 YEAR DAUGHTER IN IT. THIS COULD HAPPEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS DURING TRAFFIC HOURS..... AT THE MOMENT I'M WAITING TO HEAR BACK FROM THE DEALER, THEY TOLD ME IT'S WAS FIST TIME THAT THEY HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM WITH 200C.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TWICE. THE SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE FAILURE PREVENTED THE VEHICLE FROM SHIFTING INTO GEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE TRANS AXLE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE STILL OCCURRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THAT THE TRANSMISSIONS WERE ON BACK ORDER BECAUSE THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. MA 08/06/15 UPDATED 10/17/2017*CN

CAR'S ENGINE STALLS AT MAIN ROAD FOR NO REASON. IT WOULD NOT START UP AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME UP, DEALER TESTED THE CAR AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG, DID THE SAME THING AGAIN TODAY WITH THE EXEMPTION THAT IT WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY GOING IN REVERSE THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT GO BACK IN PARKING AND THE ENGINE STALLED AFTER 2 MINUTES THE CAR STARTED UP BUT THE TRANSMISSION INDICATOR SHIFT BETWEEN P ANS S MODE. CALLED CHRYSLER AFTER THAT HAPPENED AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE OPERATOR SAID THE IT WAS NOT POSSIBLE TO REMOTE DIAGNOSED BECAUSE THE CAR HAD NO ENGINE CHECK LIGHT OR WARNING MESSAGE THAT IF IT HAPPEN AGAIN TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER OR A MECHANIC FOR CODE SCANNING. TOOK THE CAR TO ADVANCE AUTO PART STORE AND IT SHOW CODE "P0975 POWER TRANSMISSION SOLENOID B CONTROL CIRCUIT RANGE /PERFORMANCE" DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN THIS HAPPENS IN THE HIGHWAY OR ROAD AT HIGHER SPEED BECAUSE THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF AND TRANSMISSION DOES NOT RESPONSE MAKING THE CAR UNCONTROLLABLE.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET GOING 25 MPH AND WHEN I PUSHED DOWN ON GAS PEDAL IT FELT LIKE MY TRANSMISSION JERK AND STALLED FOR A SECOND AND THEN STARTED DRIVING NORMAL. I JUS BOUGHT THIS CAR ON APRIL 29 2015 AND IT'S AND IT'S DOING THIS ALREADY. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE BYPASS MY SUNROOF EXPLODED SHATTERING GLASS ALL OVER THE INTERIOR.

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC AT 45 MPH, THE TRANMISSION WENT INTO NEUTRAL EVEN THOUGH THE SELECTOR WAS IN DRIVE AND DID NOT ALLOW ME TO ACCELERATE AT ALL WHILE THE CAR PROCEEDED TO SLOW TO A STOP. THE "SERVICE TRANSMISSION" MESSAGE, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND OTHER MESSAGES APPEARED. IT REQUIRED ME TO STOP MY CAR, RESTART IT IN ORDER TO DRIVE IT AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. IT ALSO GETS STUCK IN 4TH GEAR (LIMP HOME MODE) WHICH IS ALSO DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE ENGINE HAS VERY LITTLE POWER WHEN YOU STOP AND IT PREVENTS YOU FROM ACCELERATING AT THE RATE OF TRAFFIC. IT IS ALSO EXTREMELY HARD TO DRIVE UP HILLS.

THIS IS A FOLLOW UP ON PREVIOUS COMPLAINT SHOWN BELOW. VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE DEALER SINCE MAY 7,2015. ORIGINALLY INFORMED BY THE DEALER WHERE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED THAT IT WOULD TAKE A COUPLE OF WEEKS TO GET A REPLACEMENT TRANSAXLE. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE ON MAY 20,2015 AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE EARLIEST THEY CAN GET A REPLACEMENT WOULD BE JUNE 26,2015 AND POSSIBLY AS FAR OUT AS AUGUST OF 2015. VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT DEALERSHIP. REPAIR AND RETURN IS UNKNOWN AT THIS TIME. "RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ABOUT AN ISSUE WITH THE TRANSAXLE PARK ROD LATE APRIL 2015. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. WHERE INFORMED THAT THE RECALL REPAIRS COULD NOT BE PERFORMED UNTIL AFTER MAY 1, 2015 NEEDED A SPECIFIC TOOL THAT HAD BEEN ORDERED. THEY DID INSPECT THE VEHICLE AND SAID THAT IT WAS SAFE, MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR AFTER MAY 1ST. ON MAY 7, 2015 MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH WHEN SHE SAID THE DASH WARNING LIGHTS STARTED GOING OFF AND WARNING BELLS STARTED GOING OFF. THE WARNING SAID "SERVICE TRANSMISSION" THEN WOULD FLASH TO "SHIFT TO PARK AND ENGAGE PARKING BRAKE". THE TRANSMISSION SEEMED TO HAVE SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL. THE CAR WAS RUNNING BUT DID NOT HAVE ANY FORWARD MOMENTUM. THIS MESSAGE CONTINUED OVER AND OVER. SHE HAD TO GO OVER 3 LANES OF TRAFFIC BEFORE SHE COULD GET TO THE SIDE OFF THE ROAD TO A SAFE SPOT. SHE IMMEDIATELY PUT ON THE HAZARD LIGHTS WHEN THIS HAPPENED BUT HAD TO DODGE TRAFFIC. ONCE SHE WAS STOPPED THE SHIFTER

I WAS DRIVING ALONG A TWO LANE HWY DOING ABOUT 50-55MPH WHEN SUDDENLY THE SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT CAME ON. I LOST THROTTLE CAPABILITY AND BASICALLY I WAS NOW COASTING ON A WINDY AND HILLY ROAD. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF AT A SAFE PLACE BEFORE I STOPPED. THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO PARK AND THOUGH THE SELECTOR STILL INDICATED "P" IT WAS REALLY IN NEUTRAL BECAUSE IF I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE MY CAR ROLLED BACKWARD. MY PARKING BRAKE WOULDN'T ENGAGE AT FIRST EITHER. I HELD MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AS I CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. AT THIS POINT I WAS CONCERNED I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO EXIT MY VEHICLE. AS I WAS TALKING WITH ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE I KEPT TRYING TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK AND/OR ENGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE. FINALLY THE PARKING BRAKE WORKED AND I WAS ABLE TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE. I THEN DECIDED TO TRY TO RESTART THE CAR. WHEN I TURNED THE CAR OFF THE TRANSMISSION DEFAULTED TO PARK. SO NOW I WAS SAFE TO EXIT. ONCE THE CAR WAS RESTARTED THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK. WAITED NEARLY 3 HOURS FOR A TOW.

I WAS DRIVING AND WITHOUT WARNING THE CAR JUST STOPPED

I PUT THE CAR INTO DRIVE, NOTHING HAPPENED. I RETURNED IT TO TO PARK AND THEN DRIVE AGAIN..............STILL NOTHING! I PRESS THE GAS WHILE IN DRIVE. ...............NOTHING FOR A LITTLE WHILE ,AND THEN SUDDENLY A LOUD NOISE AND I SUDDENLY DART OF MY DRIVE WAY!!! SINCE DAY ONE WITH THIS VEHICLE I NOTICED JERKING IN THE TRANSMISSION, SLOW REACTION WHEN PRESSING GAS AND VEHICLE EXCELS WHILE I'M NOT PRESSING THE GAS! THIS CAR IS DANGEROUS! I'M CONCERNED FOR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY!

CHRYSLER 200C AWD. WHILE SITTING AT A RED LIGHT SUDDENLY MY DASH LIT UP WITH THE RED "SERVICE TRANSMISSION" MESSAGE THEN "SHIFT TO P THEN DESIRED GEAR" AND "SERVICE PARK BRAKE". I WASN'T ABLE TO SHIFT AT ALL, THE SELECTOR WOULD STAY IN "P" OR THE LIGHT ON THE SELECTOR WOULD GO FROM "P" TO "S" DIRECTLY BYPASSING "N" AND "D" WITH JUST ONE TWIST BUT THE CAR WOULD STAY IN PARK. I TRIED RESTARTING THE CAR A FEW TIMES WITH NO SUCCESS. AFTER CALLING CHRYSLER ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AND STARTING TO WAIT AN UNKNOWN AMOUNT OF TIME FOR A TOW I DECIDED TO TRY A ELECTRONIC "REBOOT" BY DISCONNECTING THE NEGATIVE TERMINAL IN THE BATTERY. AFTER LEAVING IT OFF FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES THEN RECONNECTING I WAS ABLE TO RESTART AND SHIFT THE TRANSMISSION INTO "D" AND GET MOVING AGAIN. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS NOW ILLUMINATED AND I AM REALLY CONCERNED IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN.

SHE WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND STARTED THE CAR AGAIN. THE SHIFTER DIAL NOW SHOWED TO BE IN PARK, SHE TRIED TO SHIFT TO ALL THE OTHER GEARS, THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE AND THE DIAL STILL SHOWED IT WAS IN PARK.

ON MAY 3, 2015 WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WITH MY CHILDREN, THE CAR STALLED AND I LOST COMPLETE CONTROL OF ALL STEERING AND BRAKING FUNCTION. I IMMEDIATELY PLACED ON MY HAZARDS AS CARS SWERVED LEFT AND RIGHT TO AVOID SLAMMING INTO ME. I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE CAR AND IT WOULDN'T RESTART. AFTER SITTING FOR APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES, THE CAR FINALLY RESTARTED. AS I FINALLY STARTED TO GO, THE CAR WOULD ACCELERATE QUICKLY AND THEN SLOW DOWN. WITHIN 10 MINUTES, IT STALLED AGAIN WHILE DRIVING. IT DID THIS 2 MORE TIMES. SERVICE WAS CALLED AND THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE SHOP. THE NEXT DAY I RECEIVED A CALL THAT THE CAR WAS FIXED. I PICKED UP THE CAR AND DROVE IT FOR ONE DAY. DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON MAY 6, 2015, IT AGAIN STALLED WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND ALMOST CAUSED ME TO CRASH AS I LOST ALL STEERING AND BRAKING ABILITY. AGAIN, THE CAR WOULD NOT RESTART. SERVICE WAS CALLED AND TOOK THE CAR TO A DIFFERENT AUTHORIZED DEALER. I RECEIVED A CALL TODAY MAY 8TH THAT THE CAR WAS FIXED AND READY TO GO. I PICKED UP THE CAR AND DROVE HOME. BEFORE ARRIVING TO MY HOME, THE CAR STALLED AGAIN AND AGAIN I LOST ALL STEERING AND BRAKING ABILITY. SERVICE WAS CALLED ONCE MORE AND THE CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SHOP IT WENT TO THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED ON MAY 3. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE DRIVING AT 20 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE BRAKES FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100. UPDATED 6/22/15*CN UPDATED 10/13/15*CN

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN AND THEN STALLED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE ENGINE AND TRACTION WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SOFTWARE NEEDED TO BE UPDATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65MPH, THE CAR SHUT OFF AS WE COASTED TO A STOP. CAR WAS INOPERABLE. WE TRIED RESTARTING THE CAR, BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. ALL ELECTRICAL FEATURES, INCLUDING THE GEAR SHIFT KNOB WERE INOPERABLE. WE GAVE IT TIME AND ATTEMPTED TO RESTART VEHICLE A NUMBER OF TIMES. WE FINALLY SUCCEEDED HALF AN HOUR LATER. ALL APPEARED TO BE WELL. NOT SURE IF THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON ISSUE, BUT IT IS A CONCERN OF OURS. THERE HAS BEEN A NUMBER OF RECALLS ON THEIR VEHICLES AND IT BEHOOVES ME THAT THERE IS NO LAW THAT MAKES THESE CAR MANUFACTURERS RESPONSIBLE FOR BUYING BACK THEIR VEHICLES. MY HUSBAND AND I BOUGHT A NEW VEHICLE, BELIEVING IT WOULD BE THE SAFER THING TO DO. I HAVE A TEENAGER, AN INFANT AND ANOTHER BABY ON THE WAY. IT IS SO SCARY TO HAVE BABIES IN A VEHICLE YOU NO LONGER FEEL SAFE IN, KNOWING THEIR FRAILTIES IF AN ACCIDENT WERE TO OCCUR. *TR

STOP AT A 3 WAY STOP STARTED TO PULL OUT AND THROTTLE WENT COMPLETELY DEAD, NO RESPONSE AND IN FRONT OF ON COMING VEHICLES , FINALLY CAME BACK AND WAS ABLE TO CLEAR JUST IN TIME. NEXT MORNING, SAME ISSUE BUT THIS TIME WHEN IT CAME BACK IT WOULD NOT RUN BUT LURCH AND SPIT AND SPUTTER. BOTH STOP ENGINE AND CHECK ENGINE CAMS ON. TOWED TO DEALER AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG, BUT I INSISTED IT WAS A SAFETY RELATED ISSUE. THE DEALER KEEP IT FOR ANOTHER DAY AND HEARD NOTHING, THEN I RECEIVED A CALL THE THIRD DAY THAT IT HAD BEEN TEST DROVE AND DID NOT MAKE IT OUT OF THE DEALERS LOT. SO I AM CONCERN ON THE SAFETY OF THE BRAND NEW VEHICLE WITH HARDLY ANY MILES AND ISSUES RIGHT OUT THE GATE. I AM SEEING OTHER RELATED ISSUES OF THE SAME NATURE ON THE NET ALL HUGE SAFETY RELATED WITH THROTTLE RESPONSE. I AM HOPEFUL THAT IT DOES NOT TURN INTO SOMEONE LOSING THE LIFE OVER SOMETHING KNOWN. *TR

MY FINANCE AND I WENT ON TRIP TO TENNESSEE. ON THE EXPRESSWAY I WAS DRIVING AROUND 70 MILES PER HOUR. THE CAR STARTED TO SLOW DOWN ON IT OWN IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. IT DROPPED FROM 70 TO 60 AND THEN TO 45 WITHOUT ME DOING ANYTHING. IT STARTED SHIFTING GEARS AUTOMATICALLY ON IT OWNS. THEN I PUSHED THE GAS AND IT WENT BACK UP TO 70. ONCE WE ARRIVED TO TENNESSEE WE HAD TO GO UP MOUNTAINS AND THE CAR STARTED TO STALL AGAIN IN THE MOUNTAINS. THIS WAS VERY SCARY. AS I WAS GOING INTO THE MOUNTAINS THE CAR ALMOST STOPPED WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR KEPT SHIFTING GEARS EVEN WHEN I AM BARELY PRESSING THE GAS. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND SHUT THE CAR OFF AND START IT AGAIN. THE CAR STARTED STALLING THE FIRST DAY OF PURCHASING IT BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS SUPPOSE TO THIS UNTIL IT DID IT ON THE EXPRESS WAY. I HAVE A BRAND NEW CAR THAT I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT ON LONG DISTANCE TRIPS BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. TALK ABOUT DISAPPOINTING. *TR

MY FAMILY AND I WHERE EXITING THE FREEWAY OFF-RAMP, WHEN ALL OFF A SUDDEN THE CAR STALLED ON ME. MY KIDS WHERE ABSOLUTELY SCARED, THEY WHERE VERY NERVOUS WHEN A CAR ALMOST HIT US. ON ONE OCCASION A CAR CAME FROM THE SIDE SWERVING TOWARDS US HONKING NEARLY SIDE SWIPING US. AT THIS POINT IN TIME I AM VERY DISSATISFIED WITH THE SAFETY OF THE CAR. MY FAMILY MEANS THE WORLD TO ME, NEVER DID I THINK A BRAND NEW CAR WILL GIVE ME AN ABSOLUTE TURNAROUND ON THE SAFETY OUTCOME IT'S GIVEN US UP UNTIL NOW. I RECEIVED A LETTER ALONG WITH A PHONE CALL ABOUT THE RECALL ON THE MAKE AND MODEL THAT I PURCHASED (CHRYSLER 200) RECALL STATUS. I IMMEDIATELY SET UP AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALER TO TAKE IT IN FOR THE FOLLOWING RECALL SERVICE: 14113 RO1 RECALL WC 0.50 REPROGRAMMED PCM AND TCM MODULE. THEN 14 DAYS AFTER THE SERVICE, THE CAR BROKE DOWN ON THE FREEWAY PUTTING MYSELF AND MY FAMILY IN HARMS WAY OF A TRAGIC ACCIDENT. MY WIFE IS TERRIFIED AT THE IDEA OF DRIVING THAT CAR AGAIN FOR FEAR THAT SOMETHING MIGHT HAPPEN WHILE SHE'S DRIVING ALONE JUST HER AND OUR KIDS. AT THIS POINT I AM VERY CONCERNED FOR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY WITH THIS CAR BECAUSE IT COULD IT BEEN A LOT WORSE. I EXPECT A SPEEDY SOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE AND I AM SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING TRADING IN THIS VEHICLE FOR ANOTHER WITH A BETTER SAFETY RECORD. *TR

THE CAR LUNGED WHEN IT UPSHIFTED INTO 2ND AND 5TH GEAR. IT ALSO LUNGED WHEN DOWNSHIFTING, ALMOST CAUSING ME TO RAM INTO THE BACK OF ANOTHER CAR. BOTH ARE WORSE WHEN THE CAR IS COLD. I TOOK IT INTO A DEALER. THEY TOLD ME THEY UPDATED THE SOFTWARE. THE TRANSMISSION WAS MAYBE A LITTLE DIFFERENT, BUT NOT MUCH. I AM SO TIRED OF MY NECK BOUNCING AROUND WHILE UPSHIFTING AND AFRAID OF AN ACCIDENT WHILE DOWNSHIFTING. I TOOK THE CAR INTO A DIFFERENT DEALER LAST MONTH AND HE SAID ALL THE SOFTWARE WAS UP TO DATE AND THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO. HE SAID I SHOULD HAVE TO DEAL WITH CHRYSLER. *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK LAST NIGHT, AND THE CAR SHUT DOWN WITHOUT WARNING. WE HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR 10 MONTHS NOW, AND THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN TWO WEEKS THAT HAS HAPPENED. WHAT I AM MOST CONCERN WITH IS, IF WE ARE DRIVING THE CAR AT THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT OF 70 MPH, AND THE CAR SHUTS OFF, WHAT THE CONSEQUENCES OF THAT MAY BE. I ASK THAT YOU WOULD PLEASE, PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE, AS IT WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE SOMEONE WITH THIS TYPE OF CAR TO HAVE A DEADLY ACCIDENT, WHICH I KNOW CAN BE AVOIDED IF IT IS TAKEN CARE OF IN A TIMELY MANNER. WHAT IS EVEN WORSE FOR US IS, THE CAR DEALERSHIP WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EVEN LOOK AT THE CAR UNTIL 30 APR 15, DUE TO THEIR OVERLOAD OF VEHICLES THAT THEY SEE ON A DAILY BASIS, WHICH NOW PUTS US AT EVEN MORE OF A RISK OF AN ACCIDENT. MY WIFE AND I BOTH WORK, AND NEED BOTH CARS, BUT I WILL SACRIFICE MISSING WORK TO ENSURE SHE MAKES IT TO HER JOB SAFELY. AGAIN, I ASK THAT YOU PLEASE, PLEASE TAKE A LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN ONLINE AND HAVE SEEN MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE WITH THIS PARTICULAR CAR. *TR

ON SUNDAY, APRIL 12TH AT 5:30AM, I WAS DRIVING SOUTHBOUND ON I-94 AT 65MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I LOST ALL POWER TO MY TRANSMISSION. MY GAS PEDAL WAS USELESS & I HAD TO COAST OFF THE EXPRESSWAY TO THE SHOULDER (I WAS IN THE FAR LEFT LANE & THE SHOULDER THERE IS TOO NARROW). IF THIS HAD BEEN AT A DIFFERENT TIME, I WOULD HAVE NO DOUBT BEEN KILLED (AS WELL AS OTHERS I'M SURE), FOR I WOULDN'T HAVE HAD THE ROOM OR MOMENTUM TO COAST ONTO THE SHOULDER & WOULD HAVE BEEN STRUCK FROM BEHIND. CHRYSLER WANTS THE CAR FIXED & NOT EVEN THE DEALER KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT IS WRONG, CITING IT AS A 'SHOTGUN FIX'. AND, I'M ON AN EXPRESSWAY (OR TWO OR THREE) EVERYDAY. THIS CAR IS A DANGER & IT WILL NO DOUBT DO THIS AGAIN. *TR

I AM LEASING THE CHRYSLER 200C.I LEASED IT IN OCTOBER 2014,WITHIN THE FIRST MONTH IT WAS BACK WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND CHECK TRANSMISSION LIGHT. NEXT ONE HEADLIGHT AND BACK LIGHT WOULD STAY ON WHEN CAR WAS OFF AND THEN SOMETIMES BOTH HEADLIGHTS WOULD STAY ON WHEN CAR WAS OFF.BROUGHT CAR BACK TO SERVICE DUE TO THIS AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AGAIN WAS TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY CAR IT WAS THE RO8 PARKROD.I WAS THEN TOLD FALSE ALARM THERE IS NO RECALL I WAS GIVEN BACK CAR.I GOT IN TOUCH WITH CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE TO FIND OUT ABOUT THIS AND I WAS TOLD TO DRIVE THE CAR SEE IF CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON.WHILE DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE THE CAR BEGAN TO BOUNCE, STEERING WHEEL TIGHTENED, SPEED DROPPED TO ZERO, RPM WENT UP, AND NOTHING HAPPENED WHEN I TRIED TO ACCELERATE. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO SHOULDER.I AM STILL TRYING TO GET CAR FIXED. *TR

I READ THE MANUAL FROM FIRST PAGE TO LAST WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE 1) NO MENTION OF SLIDING ARM REST AND THE FACT THAT IT DOESN'T LOCK IN POSITION. VERY STIFF TO MOVE FROM DRIVER POSITION, SO I WASN'T AWARE 2) WHEN ARM REST IS SLID FORWARD IT ENCROACHES OVER THE REAR CUP HOLDER. 3) WHEN CUP HOLDER/CONSOLE STORAGE COVER IS SLID BACK HALFWAY AND LOCKED IN POSITION, THE ARMREST WHEN SLID FORWARD ENCROACHES OVER BOTH CUP HOLDERS. APPEARS VERY HAZARDOUS, SO UNBEKNOWNST OF THIS FEATURE AND WHILE I WAS ACCELERATING FROM 0 MPH AT TRAFFIC LIGHT THAT HAD JUST CHANGED TO GREEN, THE PASSENGER IN THE BACK SEAT HAD PUSHED ON THE ARM REST FOR AN UNKNOWN REASON (PROBABLY THINKING IT WAS STATIONARY). AS THE ARM REST SHOT FORWARD, IT SQUASHED AND PROPELLED MY LARGE COFFEE CUP THROUGH THE COCKPIT AREA. LUCKILY IT WAS NOT HOT, BUT THE PROBLEM WAS THAT IT WAS A COMPLETE DISTRACTION NOT KNOWING THIS COULD HAPPEN. WHEN I LOOKED TO SEE WHAT THE HECK WAS HAPPENING, THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME HAD ALREADY BEEN BRAKING TO STOP. FOR THAT SPLIT SECOND I WASN'T PAYING ATTENTION TO MY DRIVING FROM THE DISTRACTION, I CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. A DESIGN FLAW? MAYBE ADD A LOCKING MECHANISM. THIS IS VERY HAZARDOUS WITHOUT KNOWING THE SLIDING ARMREST FEATURE THAT COULD SEVER A DRINK CUP IN HALF WHILE DRIVING. I'M CALLING CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE (800) 247-9753 AND CHRYSLER GROUP RECALL ASSISTANCE (800) 853-1403 I KNOW I'M RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE, BUT SOMETHING NEE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE PARKED, THE VEHICLE ROLLED AWAY WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO ENTER THE VEHICLE AND DEPRESS THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V090000 (POWER TRAIN) BUT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE DEALER DID NOT GIVE A SPECIFIC DATE FOR WHEN THE PART WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,800.

TOOK MY VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE TO BRENENGEN CHRYSLER FORD DEALERSHIP LOCATED IN TOMAH, WI. THE SERVICE THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE PERFORMED WAS A SAFETY RECALL, OIL CHANGE, AND TIRE ROTATION. SAFETY RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE IS THE TRANSAXLE'S INTERNAL PARK ROD FOR 2015 CHRYSLER 200'S, RECALL NOTICE R08/ NHTSA 15V-090 THAT I FOUND ON MOPAROWNERCONNECT.COM. I LEFT MY VEHICLE AT THE DEALERSHIP AT 8:00AM. I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL AT 8:50AM, SAYING MY VEHICLE IS READY FOR PICK UP. I STATED THAT I WOULD BE ABLE TO PICK UP MY VEHICLE UP AT 4:30PM. WHEN I PICKED MY VEHICLE UP I FIND OUT THAT THE SAFETY RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE WAS NOT DONE AND THE OIL LIFE MONITOR WAS NOT RESET. I CHECKED MY OIL TO SEE IF IT WAS CHANGED, IT DID NOT HAVE THE CLEAR BROWNISH COLOR THAT I WOULD EXPECT AFTER AN OIL CHANGE. THE OIL WAS NOT DARK BUT AGAIN NOT CLEAR, ESPECIALLY FOR A VEHICLE THAT HAS LESS THAN 6000 MILES. I WAS TOLD TO LEAVE MY VEHICLE FOR 30 MINUTES AND THEY WOULD DO THE RECALL. I CAME BACK AFTER AN HOUR AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT PERFORM THE SAFETY RECALL BECAUSE IT WAS A 2 HOUR JOB. I MADE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING WEEK FOR THE SAFETY RECALL. I DROPPED MY VEHICLE OFF THE NIGHT BEFORE MY APPOINTMENT WITH SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT 5:00PM. I RECEIVED A VOICE MESSAGE THE NEXT DAY AT 2:30PM SAYING MY CAR IS READY FOR PICK UP. I ARRIVE AT 4:45PM TO PICK UP MY VEHICLE; AGAIN THE SAFETY RECALL WAS NOT PERFORMED. THE REASON THIS TIME IS THAT "CHRYSLER SENT THE WRONG PARTS FOR THE SAFETY RECALL." IR
