VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ON MY WAY HOME I WAS DRIVING IN A VERY HILLY LOCATION, WHILE ON A HILL MY CAR STAYED HAVING ISSUES ACCELERATING, A LIGHTNING BOLT LIGHT FLASHED ON AND THAN IT LEVELED OUT, KEPT HAPPENING ON AND OFF TILL I SRIPPED AT A GAS STATION. I WENT TO LEAVE AND PUT THE CASE IN REVERSE AND THE CAR ACCELERATED ON ITS ON CAUSING ME TO SLAM ON THE BREAKS OTHER WISE I WOULD HAVE RAMMER INTO THE GAS PUMP. SO I PULLED BACK INTO THE PARKING SPACE AND LOOKED UP WHAT THAT LIGHT WAS. IT SAID (ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL) I READ IF IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE SONCE I HAD MY 2 LITTLE ONES IN THE CAR WITH ME. IT SAID NOT TO, SO WE HAD TO GET A HOTEL BECAUSE IT WAS 11PM. AND HAD TO WAIT TO TAKE IT TO THE SHOP ON THE MORNING. ON THE WAY TO THE SHOP, IT STARTED PUTTERING SO BAD, DIDN'T THINK I WAS GOING TO MAKE IT THERE. AND AT ONE POINT AFTER THE PUTTERING IT HAD LEVELED OUT AND THAN IT ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN AGAIN. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFTEY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE RECALLED! I SHOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO PAY $800 FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULDN'T BE MALFUNCTIONING AFTER ONLY OWNING IT FOR A YEAR! PUTTING ME, MY CHILDREN, AND OTHERS ON THE ROADS LIVES ON DANGER! RECALL THIS PART!

AIR BAGS, SEAT BELTS
I WAS INVOLVED IN A 3CAR ACCIDENT YESTERDAY 10-10-16 THURSDAY WHERE I WAS THE MIDDLE CAR ON A CITY STREET APPROACHING A RED LIGHT TO STOP. I'M NOT SURE IF MY VEH WAS COMPLETELY AT A STAND STILL OF IT I WAS STILL IN MOTION AT ABOUT 3MPH OR LESS BUT ANOTHER CAR RAN INTO ME FORCING ME INTO THE VAN IN FRONT OF ME. ALTHOUGH MY CAR FILLED WITH SMOKE AND I COULD SMELL RUBBER, AND THE ICON ON MY DASH SHOWS THE AIR BAGS CAME OUT- BUT THEY DID NOT. I DIDNT REALISE THE MY CAR ASSUMED THE AIRBAGS CAME OUT UNTIL I GOT IN THE CAR TO DRIVE AWAY AND THE SEATBELT WAS AND STILL IS LOCKED AS IF IM NOT SUPPOSE TO BE DRIVING BECAUSE MY CAR BELIEVE THE AIRBAGS ARE OUT AT THIS TIME AND IM UNABLE TO DRIVE IT AND THEY ARE NOT WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THERE MAY BE A FAULTY PARTS ISSUE GOING ON WITH MY CAR.I HAVE CONTACTED MY MANUFACTURER BUT HAVE HEARD NOTANYTHING SO FAR EXCEPT IT WAS MOVED UP TO THEIR LEGAL DEPT.

ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I FINANCED THE CHRYSLER 200 2015, USED ON 7/13/15. AROUND AUGUST 28TH, 2015 I WAS DRIVING AND MY CAR STALLED WHILE IN MOTION IN A BUSY INTERSECTION. A MESSAGE APPEARED ON DASHBOARD: "ENGINE WARMING WAIT TO START", THE KNOB AND BREAK LOCKED I COULD NOT MOVE THE VEHICLE. THE MESSAGE ON THE DASHBOARD THEN CHANGED TO: "SHIFT TO P." AFTER PRESSING THE PUSH TO START BUTTON ON AND OFF I GOT THE CAR MOVING AND DECIDED TO HEAD TO THE DEALER CAUTIOUSLY, ON THE WAY TO THE DEALER IT HAPPENED ANOTHER 3 TIMES AND I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO MOVE AGAIN AND GET IT IN THE DEALERSHIP. THEY HAD IT IN FOR A FEW DAYS AND TOLD ME THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM. AN HOUR INTO DRIVING AFTER I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP THE CAR STALLED AGAIN THIS TIME IT WAS DARK OUT AND I WAS ON A HIGHWAY (LUCKILY RIGHT LANE) THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON THIS TIME IT WAS COMPLETELY LOCKED. I EXITED THE VEHICLE AND SAT ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY WAITING FOR A TOW TRUCK. (POLICE WERE CALLED TOO). THIS PROBLEM WAS BLAMED ON THE R24 RECALL, A MONTH LATER I GOT THE CAR BACK WITH THE PART THAT HAD TO BE REPLACED AND EVERYTHING SEEMED FINE. THE CAR STALLED AGAIN ON 4/20/2016, SAME MESSAGE ON DASHBOARD THIS TIME IT WAS WHILE MOVING AND MAKING A TURN AND I ALMOST GOT HIT HEAD ON BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THEY TOOK THE CAR IN AGAIN, SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG THIS TIME, HAPPENED AGAIN IN JUNE,2016 THEY SAID AGAIN NOTHING WAS WRONG. IT HAPPENED AGAIN, THE END OF SEPT,2016 AND I GOT A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE S55 RECALL WHICH CAN CAUSE STALLING. THEY KEPT THE CAR IN DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAD TO WAIT FOR PART FROM CHRYSLER. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS FIXED AND ON 11/6/2016 I PICKED UP THE CAR AND IT STALLED ABOUT 100FT AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP. THEY TOOK IT BACK IN, AND NOW THEY SAID AGAIN THAT IT IS FIXED AND FOR ME TO PICK IT UP. I AM TERRIFIED, IT IS AN UNSAFE, UNPREDICTABLE VEHICLE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE CHRYSLER FOR THE SAKE OF SAFETY. HELP ME.

TRANSMISSION SHIFTING HARD AND FROM TIME TO TIME SEEMS LIKE IT TAKES LONGER TO ENGAGE INTO DRIVE FROM PARK MODE. THE CAR HAS BEEN AT THE DEALER FOR SOME TYPE OF TRANSMISSION ISSUES SINCE IT WAS BOUGHT NEW. WE ARE CURRENTLY WAITING FOR A RESPONSE ON SAFETY RECALL S55 / NHTSA 16V-529 RECEIVED IN EARLY SEPTEMBER 2016. I CALLED FCA AND RECEIVED A CASE NUMBER 9/12/2016 2:32 PM CASE NUMBER 30101893 BUT HAVE YET TO HEAR ANYTHING BACK. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND HAVE YET TO RECEIVE A CALL BACK. MY CONCERN IS THE CAR HAS BEEN LABELED UNSAFE BY THE RECALL AND I HAVEN'T REVIVED AND FEED BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP OR FCA.
