RECALL # S55 NHTSA 16V529 MY CAR MIL LIGHT CAME ON LAST NIGHT 04/20/2018 WHILE ON THE FREEWAY DOING 70 MILES, STATING THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE SERVICED. ONCE I GOT OF THE FREEWAY TURNING RIGHT ON THE STREET THE CAR ACTED AS IF IT DIDN'T WANT TO GO, DRIVING AT A VERY SLOW SPEED AROUND 40 MILES. WHEN I CAME TO THE LIGHT TO STOP THE CAR SEEMED AS IF IT WAS GOING TO CUT OFF, IDLED LOW AND WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN FOR ME TO GO THE CAR WAS STILL A THE DRIVING SPEED OF NO MORE THAN 40 MILES. ONCE I GOT TO MY DESTINATION, I INFORMED MY FIANC OF THE ISSUE I WAS HAVING. WE WENT BACK OUTSIDE AFTER READING THE CARS MANUAL AROUND 10-15 MINUETS AFTER. HE STARTED THE CAR AND THE TRANSMISSION MESSAGE WAS GONE BUT THE MIL LIGHT WAS STILL ON. HE PLACED THE CAR IN DRIVE AND MOVED IT FORWARD AND THEN IN REVERSE TO BACK IT UP. THE LIGHT WAS STILL ON BUT HE TOLD ME THAT BASED ON THAT THE TRANSMISSION DIDN'T SEEM TO HAVE ANY ISSUES. THE NEXT MORNING ON 04/21/2018 , I TRIED TO AUTO START MY CAR, GOT IN THE CAR AND ON THE DASH READ DISABLED SO THE CAR DIDN'T AUTO START. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED THAT OTHER THAN WHEN THE CAR IS LOW ON FUEL YOU CAN'T AUTO START THE CAR AND MY CAR HAD A FULL TANK OF GAS WHEN I TRIED STARTING IT THIS MORNING. SO WHEN I STARTED THE CAR MANUALLY IT NO LONGER SHOWED THE MIL LIGHT AND WHILE DRIVING ON THE STREET AND FREEWAY BACK HOME IT SEEMED TO BE DRIVING AND SHIFTING FINE. I HAVE NOTICED THAT MY CAR ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING HAS A DELAYED TIME WHEN SHIFTING TO PICK UP SPEED AND THIS IS AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING FOR A WHILE AND I'VE BEEN DRIVING FOR SOME DISTANCE. THEN ONCE IT SHIFTS IT GIVES A JERK THEN IT PICKS UP SPEED.

TAKATA RECALL: MY CAR HAD A RECALL ON IT FOR THE TRANSAXLE WIRE HARNESS. I TOOK IT IN TO GET FIXED AND MY CAR HAS BEEN STALLING OUT. IT HAD LOSS OF MOTIVE POWER. IT SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE EVERY DAY AND THE RECALL WAS SUPPOSE TO FIX IT. IT HAS ALMOST CAUSED A FEW ACCIDENTS. I WILL HIT THE GAS TO GO AND MY CAR WILL NOT MOVE THEN WHEN I TAKE MY FOOD OFF THE CAR IT JULTS AND SPEEDS OFF. THIS HAPPENS WHEN I STOP AT A STOP SIGN ALSO A STOP LIGHT. THERE ARE NO ISSUES WHEN I'M DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. IT IS ONLY IF I HAVE TO STOP OR GO. I ALSO HAVE ISSUES IF I START MY CAR AND DON'T LET IT SIT FOR S FEW MINUTES. IF I START MY CAR AND GO TO BACK OUT IT WILL FEEL LIKE SOMEONE IS HITTING MY BREAK AND LETTING GO. LIKE IT WON'T ACCELERATE RIGHT.

THE VEHICLE WILL STALL WHILE DRIVING CAUSING YOU TO STOP, PLACE IN PARK AND RESTART. UPON TRYING TO RESTART IT STRUGGLES TO TURN OVER. SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING WITH THE CAR HAS SAT FOR AWHILE AND IS COLD. THE TEMP GAUGE SHOWS NOTHING ON IT. I KNOW THE CAR WILL STALL. IF THERE IS A LINE OR MORE ON THE TEMP GAUGE ON THE DASHBOARD IT DOESN'T SEEM TO HAVE ANY ISSUES. THE VEHICLE IS ALSO NOT SHIFTING FROM GEAR TO GEAR PROPERLY. IT SEEMS TO NOT CATCH WHEN IT SHOULD GO TO THE NEXT GEAR. THE CAR WILL JERK.

IMMEDIATELY AFTER RECALL WORK WAS DONE I EXPERIENCE ISSUES. WHEN I TRY TO START MY CAR (PUSH TO START REQUIRES YOU TO PUSH THE BREAK AND PUSH THE BUTTON) BREAK PEDDLE WON'T DEPRESS, SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHTS COMES ON. I CALL A TOW TRUCK AND GET IT DROPPED OFF AT THE CLOSET DEALERSHIP. I ARRIVE BEHIND THE TOW TRUCK AND WATCH IT BE DROPPED OFF EXPLAIN TO SERVICE ADVISER WHATS GOING ON AND I JUST HAD RECALL WORK DONE AND THAT IS WHEN THE ISSUES STARTED. IMMEDIATELY WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING AT MY CAR OR KNOWING WHAT CAR IS MINE SHE SAYS NO ITS NOT RELATED TO THE RECALL. SHE IS NOT A TECHNICIAN AND DOESN'T ACTUALLY KNOW THE CAUSE YET. THEY CALL LATER IN THE DAY AND TELL ME THE BODY CONTROL MODULE HAS SHORTED OUT AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. IT IS NO LONGER COMMUNICATING WITH THE TCM(THE TCM WAS UPDATED DURING RECALL WORK BUT THE BCM WAS NOT.) THE TWO CAN LONGER COMMUNICATE BECAUSE THEY ARE NOW BASICALLY SPEAKING A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE. OF COURSE I AM TOLD NOT RELATED TO RECALL. THE NEXT DAY I GET A CALL SAYING MY BATTERY THAT WAS PREVIOUSLY WORKING GREAT CAN NO LONGER PASS A TEST. SOMEONE WAS TRYING TO CRANK AND START MY CAR( THE CAR THAT WENT IN FOR A BREAK PEDDLE THAT WOULD NOT DEPRESS AND WOULD NOT START) I NOW NEED TO PAY FOR A NEW BATTERY AND THERE IS AN INSTALLATION FEE TO REPLACE THE BATTERY. NEXT DAY MY CARS STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS NO LONGER WORK AND SOMETHING ELSE HAS SHORTED OUT. MY RENTAL CAR NOT ONLY HAS TRASH IN THE BACK SEAT BUT A ROACH THAT CRAWLS OUT FROM IN BETWEEN THE SEATS. I GET A CALL THAT THE TECH WHO WORKED ON MY CAR FINISHED AT CLOSING TIME SO TO BRING BACK THE RENTAL NEXT DAY! I'M THINKING MY CAR WONT HAVE ANY MORE ISSUES, I'M WRONG!! THE MENU ON MY CAR LETS YOU VIEW THE TIRE PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURES OF THE VEHICLE. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE OIL TEMP DOESN'T DISPLAY. THE SETTING FOR MY DOORS TO BE UNLOCKED WITH THE HAND SENSOR ON DRIVER DOOR WONT WORK!

SERVICE BRAKES, STEERING
BREAK LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING. STAYS ON FOR 30SECS AND THEN SHUTS OFF. HAPPENS WHEN GOING AROUND A SHARP CURVE, DOWN HILL, OR STOPPING ABRUPTLY. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND NO CODES FOUND. I HAVE RESEARCHED AND SEEN THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH 200S FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW, AND THERE HAS BEEN NO FIX. BREAK PADS WEAR DOWN AT A MUCH FASTER RATE THAN NORMAL. EVEN AFTER BREAK SYSTEM HAS BEEN FLUSHED. HAVE NOT HAD AN ISSUE STOPPING THE CAR, JUST THE LIGHT COMES ON OFTEN. 2ND. RACK AND PINION HAS GONE OUT CAUSING THE CAR TO LOSE POWER STEERING IN 1 DIRECTION ONLY. IN MY INSTANCE, I WAS ONLY ABLE TO TURN LEFT NORMALLY AND IT WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO TURN RIGHT. HAPPENED WHEN I WAS PARKING THE CAR AND WENT TO STRAIGHTEN UP THE WHEEL. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE FIXED.

TRANSMISSION HAS A HARSH SHIFT & SLIPS AT TIMES. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER 4 TIMES WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. CHRYSLER'S CORPORATE WON'T ADDRESS THE COMPLAINT BECAUSE THERE'S NO TROUBLE CODES OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I HAVE LESS THAN 3000 MILES BEFORE MY WARRANTY EXPIRES.

FEBRUARY 23, 2018 MY VEHICLE DID AN UPDATE THAT NIGHT; THAT AT WHEN IT STARTED. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THE SAME NIGHT AND TALK WITH EMIL THE FINANCE MANAGER. HE TOLD ME TO BRING IT IN THE NEXT DAY. WHICH WAS FEBRUARY 24, 2018. MY I WAS TOLD IT WAS READY ONE WEEK LATER SO I GO TO PICK IT UP. THE PROBLEM WASN'T FIXED. I LEFT IT THERE. I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL FROM MELINDA SAYING A TECHNICIAN DROVE MY CAR AND THE TRANSMISSION SLAMMED SO HARD THE TECH THOUGHT IT FELL OUT THE VEHICLE. SO MY TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED. SO I PICKED MY CAR UP APRIL 2018; ONE WEEK LATER IT IS JERKING AS I DRIVE DOWN A HILL. THEM AGAIN IN A FLAT PARKING G LOT. SO I CALL THE DEALERSHIP TO RETURN IT AND THEY CAN'T GET IT TO DUPLICATE WHAT OT WAS DOING. SO MELINDA CALLS AND TELL ME TO PICK MY CAR UP AND IF O KEEP HAVING PROBLEMS RETURN IT. MY CAR IS STILL JERKING AND AT 38-42 IT CHANGES GEARS ROUGHLY. *TT
