ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
CAR WILL STALL OUT WHILE DRIVING AND CAR WILL REMAIN STUCK IN NEUTRAL. DASHBOARD LIGHTS WITH FLICKER OFF AND STAY OFF BEFORE STALLING. CAR WILL COMPLETELY SHUT OFF IN TRAFFIC WITH NO WARNING. I HAVE READ VARIOUS RECALLS ON SAME MAKE AND MODEL AND YEAR CAR. THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS TURNING A CORNER AND I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BECAUSE I HAD NO TIME TO PUT ON EMERGENCY BLINKERS. WHEN THE LIGHTS COME BACK ON THE DASH IT SAYS POWER STEERING SYSTEM UNAVAILABLE. I CAN START THE CAR AGAIN BUT ABOUT ANOTHER 2-4 MILES IT REPEATS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR BOTH ME AND MY FAMILY. *TR

ENGINE
I LEFT MY HOME, IN MY VEHICLE WHICH HAD BEEN RUNNING COMPLETELY NORMALLY WITH NO DASH LIGHTS ON, OVERHEATING, LEAKING, ETC. I LIVE ON A DANGEROUS ROAD (IT'S EXTREMELY CURVY, DARK, HAS A HIGH ACCIDENT RATE AND NO SHOULDERS JUST 12FT. DEEP CONCRETE DITCHES ON BOTH SIDES. I LEFT HOME AROUND 9:35PM AND MADE IT APPROX. .5-1 MILE AND BRAKED SLIGHTLY TO TAKE A SHARP CURVE, AND WITH NO WARNING MY ENGINE STALLS COMPLETELY (ALSO CAUSING LOSS OF POWER STEERING). I WAS DOING ROUGHLY 25-30 MPH. WHEN THE ENGINE DIED. THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING CAUSED ME TO BE UNABLE TO KEEP MY VEHICLE SAFELY IN MY LANE ON THIS SHARP TURN (I WAS JUST LUCKY THAT THE ONCOMING LANE WAS CLEAR). LUCK IS ALSO ALL THAT PREVENTED ME FROM BREAKING DOWN AWKWARDLY POSITIONED RIGHT IN A DARK BLIND CURVE. I WAS ABLE TO COAST ON WHAT LITTLE SPEED I HAD LEFT, TO ONE OF THE ONLY SAFE PULL OFFS ON MY ROAD ( I BARELY HAD ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO DO THAT, AND IT WAS JUST BY CHANCE THAT I WAS BY THE SPOT WHERE IT WAS POSSIBLE TO GET OUT OF THE ROADWAY. I HAVE SEEN WELL OVER 50 ONLINE COMPLAINTS SO FAR, OF OWNERS OF 2012 CHRYSLER 200'S WHO HAVE SUFFERED FAILURES PRACTICALLY IDENTICAL TO MINE. MY VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN FOR REGULAR MAINTENANCE/OIL CHANGE JUST A WEEK OR SO PRIOR TO THIS, THE INSPECTION REVEALED NO ISSUES NEEDING ATTENTION. THE CAR RUNS PERFECTLY NORMAL RIGHT UP TO THE MOMENT YOU LOOSE ALL POWER AND YOUR ABILITY TO STEER WITH ANY PRECISION OR SPEED. THIS PROBLEM IS OBVIOUSLY FAIRLY COMMON IN THIS VEHICLE, SERIOUSLY IMPAIRS YOUR ABILITY TO CONTROL THE CAR SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING, CAUSES NO CHECK ENGINE WARNING THEREFORE NO ERROR CODE TO DIAGNOSE BY, AND DEPENDING ON YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES AND LUCK AT THE TIME COULD EITHER CAUSE A GIANT INCONVENIENCE OR A SERIOUS TRAGEDY. CHRYSLER ALREADY RECALLED FOR A NEARLY IDENTICAL ISSUE BUT ONLY INCLUDED THE 2015 MODELS. THEY NEED TO ADDRESS THIS BEFORE SOMEONE DIES. *TR

POWER TRAIN
JANUARY 13,2017 I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE FROM CARITE DEALERSHIP. ABOUT FOUR OR FIVE MONTHS LATER I HAD AN ISSUE COME SAYING SERVICE TRANSMISSION. MY CAR IMMEDIATELY STARTED TO STALL AND NOT SWITCH INTO GEAR WHILE ON THE FREEWAY. I HAD TO SWITCH LANES AND IT WASN'T EASY SEEING THAT CARS WAS GOING 70 MILES IN SPEED. EVENTUALLY I GOT OFF TO SIDE STREET THEN POWERED THE CAR DOWN. TRIED STARTING IT AND IT WOULDN'T MOVE. I WAITED AN HOUR BEFORE THE CAR STARTED NEXT DAY TO THE DEALERSHIP I GO TO ONLY BE TOLD THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. THIS ISSUE WILL HAPPEN OCCASIONALLY MORE SO DURING SUMMER. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP STILL THEY SEE NOTHING WRONG BUT A THROTTLE BODY LIKE SERIOUSLY. I COMPLAINED THAT IT WAS STILL AN ISSUE AND DEMANDED IT BE FIXED. THEY SAID IT'S NO PROBLEM. I HAVEN'T TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SINCE BECAUSE I WAS TRIED OF THE RUN AROUND AND THEM SAYING IT'S NOTHING WRONG. MY CAR DOES THIS FREQUENTLY MAINLY ON THE HIGHWAY WHERE IT'S UNSAFE TO BE DOING SO. I'VE EVEN HAD PROBLEMS WHERE THE CAR DOESN'T START UP TILL THE NEXT DAY. I HAD PROBLEMS WHERE THE WHEN IT'S TIME FOR AN OIL CHANGE THAT IT EVENTUALLY SHUTDOWNS DOWN. TODAY MAY 22, 2020 IS THE LATEST WHERE ONCE AGAIN THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. *TR

AS I DROVE THE VEHICLE OFF THE LOT LOCATED IN MODESTO, CA I DROVE TO MY HOME ADDRESS WHICH IS LOCATED IN ANTIOCH, CA. ON MY WAY HOME THE CAR STARTED JERKING WHEN I NOTIFIED THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THEY WILL FIX IT AND TO DROP IT BACK OFF. THEY HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 7 DAYS AND DID NOT FIX A THING BECAUSE THE VEHICLE CUTS OFF ANY POWER AND GAS CONTROL ON THE FREEWAY. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MAY 5, 2020. I WENT TO START MY CAR & IT SAYS THE ENGINE IS TOO HOT TO START. STRANGE. THE NEXT DAY IT SAYS THE SAME THING SO I CALL A TOW TRUCK TO TAKE IT TO PEP BOYS. THE CAR WAS STUCK IN NEUTRAL AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WOULDN'T RELEASE SO THEY WERE UNABLE TO TOW IT. THEY GIVE ME A JUMP START & I TAKE IT TO PEP BOYS. THEY TEST THE BATTERY & SHOWED IT WAS JUST FINE. I SEEMED TO HAVE NO PROBLEMS SOON AFTER LEAVING. LATER THAT NIGHT, I WENT OUT TO CHECK ON IT JUST TO MAKE SURE IT WAS WORKING. ONCE AGAIN IT WOULDN'T START. THEN I NOTICED THE DASHBOARD MENU HAD A BLACK SCREEN & WOULDN'T TURN ON. I KEPT TRYING TO TURN THE CAR OFF & GIVE IT A FEW MINUTES BEFORE TURNING IT BACK ON. THEN THE AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED WORKING CORRECTLY ONCE I TURNED IT ON. THE TEMPERATURE INSIDE THE CAR WAS 100 DEGREES I THOUGHT THIS WAS CAUSING A PROBLEM FOR THE ENGINE SO I TRIED TO TURN IT OFF. IT KEPT BLOWING ONTO THE WINDSHIELD & WOULDN'T SHUT OFF UNTIL I TURNED THE CAR OFF. I TRIED TO START THE CAR & THE BATTERY WOULDN'T CRANK. IT JUST WAS STUCK ON RUN WITHOUT THE ENGINE RUNNING. SO I WAS OFFICIALLY STRANDED AT HOME, BUT I'M GLAD IT HAPPENED AT HOME INSTEAD OF SOMEWHERE ELSE. I DON'T HAVE AAA SO I WASN'T SURE HOW I WOULD GET MY CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHICH IS AN HOUR FROM ME. THANKFULLY A RELATIVE CAME THROUGH & HELPED. BUT WHEN I INITIALLY WENT TO PICK UP THE CAR ON 5/13, ONCE AGAIN IT DIDN'T START. SO THEY KEPT IT FOR A FEW MORE DAYS TO SEE WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM. IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM LIKE I THOUGHT. I NOW HAVE THE CAR TODAY & SO FAR ALL IS GOOD. HOWEVER I AM UPSET NO ONE TOLD ME THIS CAR HAD 8 RECALLS. BEFORE SELLING IT TO ME & I'M A NEW DRIVER! THIS HAS BEEN A MAJOR INCONVENIENCE & I FEAR THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. I'D LIKE TO HAVE IT RECALLED & REPLACE THIS WITH A NEW VEHICLE COMPLETELY. I CAN'T ATTACH THESE FILES BUT I HAVE VIDEOS AS EVIDENCE I WILL GLADLY EMAIL IF NEEDED. *TR

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WE TURNED ONTO A MAIN ROAD AND WE WERE IN FRONT OF TRAFFIC DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. WE HAD TO APPLY THE BRAKES DUE TO SOMEONE CUTTING US OFF, THEN WHEN WE TRIED TO ACCELERATE AGAIN IT SHUT OFF AND SAID SHIFT TO PARK WHILE WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY ROAD. THE CAR BEHIND US ALMOST CRASHED INTO US AND HAD TO SWERVE AWAY FROM US. WE HAD NO CONTROL OVER OUR VEHICLE, ALL WE COULD DO IS TRY TO GET THE CAR TO TURN BACK ON, TO GET OUT OF TRAFFIC. HOWEVER, WE TRIED TO AND THE CAR WASN?T FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY. THE D FOR THE DRIVE POSITION WAS BLINKING. WE HAD TO COMPLETELY STOP THE CAR, IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC, AND HOPE THAT WE DIDN?T GET HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC COMING FROM BEHIND US DUE TO HAVING TO CONTROL OVER OUR VEHICLE. WE PUSHED THE BUTTON TO THE IGNITION/START TO START IT AND IT WOULDN?T START IT. IT SOUNDED LIKE IT HAD NO POWER AT ALL AND THEN AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS, WHILE EXPOSED AND DEFENSELESS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WITH MY FAMILY, IT FINALLY STARTED AND WE GOT GOING AGAIN. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, HOWEVER, IT?S THE FIRST TIME IT HAS WITH MY FAMILY IN THE CAR. THIS CAR IS UNPREDICTABLE AND UNSAFE DUE TO THAT, MY FAMILY AT RISK JUST GOING TO THE GROCERY STORE. IT IS OUR ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. WE LOOKED IT UP, IT FALLS UNDER CHRYSLER RECALL S55. *TR
