ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
OUR 2011 CHRYSLER 200 HAS ABOUT 8000 MILES AND HAS BEEN STALLING, SURGING IDLE SPEEDS WHEN STOPPED, AND DOWNSHIFTING HARD (JOLTING) FOR THE LAST 2000 MILES OR SO. TOMORROW IS THE FIRST TIME TAKING IT IN SPECIFICALLY FOR THIS REASON AFTER HAVING THE DEALER ANNOTATE THESE SYMPTOMS DURING THE LAST OIL CHANGE. IT IS NOT SAVE TO HAVE A CAR'S IDLE JUMP WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT OR INTERSECTION NOR IS IT SAFE TO HAVE A CAR STALL OUT WHEN SLOWING DOWN. FURTHERMORE, IT'S A BRAND NEW CAR SO THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE TO PAY FOR A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. IF IT DOES NOT GET FIXED I WILL BE CONTACTING MY INSURANCE COMPANY TO LET THEM KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON AS I AM FEARFUL THAT ONE OF THESE LUNGES WILL RESULT IN A CRASH. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
WHEN I STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE CAR DIED AND I DIDN'T"T EVEN KNOW IT. WHEN I PROCEEDED TO DRIVE FORWARD, THE CAR HAD DIED COMPLETELY, AND I ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED. THIS HAPPENED 3 TIMES 4/8/12, 4/10/12 AND 4/21/12. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY DEALER @ CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE. CLEVELAND AVENUE, NEWARK DELAWARE.19711. PHONE 302-731-0100. THEY CHECKED IT OUT AND SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. THEY SAID THE CODES SHOWED NOTHING. THIS REALLY BOTHERS ME, I CAN'T SLEEP, AND IT MAKES ME UNSAFE. IT PUTS MY SAFETY AT RISK AND OTHERS. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
WHILE DRIVING THIS CAR HAS STALLED ON 5 SEPARATE OCCASIONS. ONCE IN FRONT OF AN 18 WHEELER, THERE WAS NO COLLISION BUT IT WAS CLOSE. ONE IN AN INTERSECTION AS I WENT THROUGH A LIGHT IN MULTIPLE LANES OF TRAFFIC, ONCE WHILE PULLING INTO TRAFFIC AROUND A BUSY CORNER, ONCE IN A PARKING LOT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK, AND ONCE ON A COUNTY ROAD. I NOTIFIED CHRYSLER THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE THE VEHICLE STATING IT DOES NOT FALL WITHIN THE LEMON LAW GUIDE LINES. THEY ARE COMPLETELY AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND YET I AM STILL FORCED TO OWN AND PAY FOR A VEHICLE THAT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND MAY PUT MY LIFE IN DANGER. *JS
