POWER TRAIN
WHEN COMING FROM HIGHWAY SPEEDS DOWN TO ZERO, THE CAR WILL JERK HARD AS IT DOWNSHIFTS, GIVING IT A FEELING OF JOLTING FORWARD FOR SHORT AND SUDDEN BURSTS WITH EVERY DOWNSHIFT. MY CONCERN IS THAT IT COULD POTENTIALLY BE A DANGER IF AN EMERGENCY SITUATION WHERE STOPPING DISTANCE COULD BE INCREASED DUE TO THE JOLTING FORWARD UNEXPECTEDLY. NOT ONLY THAT, IT COULD BE CAUSING EARLIER WEAR AND TEAR ON BRAKING SYSTEMS AS WELL AS INTERNAL COMPONENTS OF THE TRANSMISSION IT'S SELF. ALSO, WHEN AT A STOP WITH THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE, IT CAN SOMETIMES SHAKE VIGOROUSLY, BEING VERY OBVIOUS ON THE STEERING WHEEL AS YOU CAN SEE IT SHAKING, AS WELL AS FEEL IT. ONCE THE VEHICLE IS SWITCHED INTO NEUTRAL, ALL SHAKING STOPS. AUTOMATIC 9-SPEED. 34,XXX MILES

ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
2 COMPLAINTS/CONCERNS: 1) THIS AFFECTS THE 2012 CHRYSLER 200 I PURCHASED USED WITH 62,500 MILES. IT'S BEEN WELL DOCUMENTED ALL OVER THE INTERNET AND AT CHRYSLER DEALERSHIPS HOW THE 2012 CHRYSLER 200 WAS PART OF A GROUP OF VEHICLES WITH FAULTY ANTIFREEZE FROM THE FACTORY. THIS ANTIFREEZE BREAKS DOWN AND WILL CLOG THE HEATER CORE, RADIATOR, AND TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER. THE RECOMMENDED REPAIR, FROM CHRYSLER, IS TO REPLACE ALL OF THESE LISTED PARTS AT A COST OF ABOUT $2500.00. CHRYSLER KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, BUT REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. MY CAR IS AT A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AS WE SPEAK HAVING THESE REPAIRS MADE. 2) THIS ONE I HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED, BUT I ALSO SEE A LARGE NUMBER OF REPORTS WHERE THE PENTASTAR V6 EQUIPPED IN A NUMBER OF THESE VEHICLES WILL SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. MANY OF THESE CASES ARE WHEN THE CARS ARE IN MOTION. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. ISSUE SEEMS TO BE CENTERED AROUND A PCM, BUT THERE IS NO RECALL OF ANY KIND ON THIS.

ENGINE
WHEN ENGINE IS COLD IT STALLS REPEATEDLY WHEN I SLOW DOWN, STOP, TURN A CORNER OR ACCELERATE. CAR IS FINE WHEN IT IS HOT BUT I CAN'T ALWAYS LET IT WARM UP FOR 10 MINUTES BEFORE DRIVING. THIS MORNING WAS THE WORST WHEN I PULLED OUT OF MY SUBDIVISION AND IT STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC HAVING TO SLAM ON THEIR BRAKES TO AVOID HITTING ME. THIS IS GOING TO GET ME KILLED.

HELLO I'VE SUBMITTED AND REACHED OUT PLENTY OF TIMES ABOUT A FAULTY TRANSMISSION THAT WHEN ACCELERATED FEELS LIKE IT'S IN NEUTRAL THEN GETS A GEAR AND CAUSES VEHICLE TO MAKE A HARSH SOUND WHEN KICKS INTO GEAR AND HAVE ALMOST GOTTEN INTO PLENTY OF ACCIDENTS DUE TO THIS. ALSO AIR BAG SENSOR IN PASSENGER SEAT TURNS ON EVERYTIME SOMEONE GETS IN AS IF IT DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY.

"COLD START" MY CAR HAD A RECALL FOR A DEVICE THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. "SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING" I WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS REPLACED AND THIS WOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM. "COLD START" THIS IS HAPPENING AGAIN IN THE MORNINGS, THE CAR STARTS FINE: I'LL SIT AND LET IT WARM FOR ABOUT 5 MINS. WHEN I DRIVE OUT THE CARPORT PARKING MAKE A LEFT, THEN MAKING A RIGHT THE CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED 2 TIME'S LAST MONTH. SAME ISSUE THIS MONTH, BUT IT HAS HAPPENED 10 TIMES THIS MONTH. I WARM THE CAR AND THEN PROCEED TO DRIVE, SHUTS OFF COMPLETELY , BEFORE IT WOULD START RIGHT UP, NOW IT'S HAVING A DELAYED STARTING ISSUE AS IF IT DOESN'T WANT TO START. SAME ROUTINE AS TO WARMING UP MY CAR, I MADE A RIGHT ONTO THE STREET AND WHEN SLOWING DOWN BECAUSE THERE WAS A DIP, CAR SHUT OFF, 3 ATTEMPTS TO START IT UP. THE CAR SHUT OFF AGAIN AT THE STOP SIGH BEFORE HEADING INTO A MAJOR INTERSECTION OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. IT IS NOW TAKING AT MOST 3 TIMES TO ATTEMPT BEFORE THE CAR STARTS AND NOW THE NEEDLES IN THE CAR ON THE DASH BOARD ROLL OVER FROM THE 0 AND BACK. IT ALSO HAS A DELAY WHEN TRYING TO EXHILARATE. THIS IS HAPPENED TO MY ON THE STREETS WHILE IN MOTION, MAKING TURNS, DRIVING STRAIGHT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND THE RECALL SPECIFIED THAT THE CAR COULD SHUT OFF WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY.

I WAS DRIVING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR STARTED MAKING A LOUD WHINING NOISE AND SEEMED TO BE DOWNSHIFTING AND LURCHING BY ITSELF. IT WAS NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY AND IT SEEMED TO BE DOING STUFF BY ITSELF. I DID NOT HAVE CONTROL OVER WHAT IT WAS DOING. I HAD TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY AND CALLED TRIPLE A AND THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED. IT WAS REPAIRED AND NOW 2 WEEKS LATER IT AGAIN DOWNSHIFTED BY ITSELF OUT OF THE BLUE AND STARTED WHINING AGAIN. IT HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN SINCE.
