POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:CONTROL MODULE (TCM/PCM/TECM)
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC AND THE VEHICLE WAS ALMOST STRUCK BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JIM MARSH CHRYSLER JEEP (8575 W CENTENNIAL PKWY, LAS VEGAS, NV 89149, (702) 946-9000) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A NEW POWER TRAIN CONTROL MODULE WAS NEEDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000. Dealer has fixed the problem (supposedly) concerning the computer malfunctions. Now there is an air bag problem which will be taken to the dealer Friday. Transmission continues to jolt and almost stall out.

THE TRANSMISSION WILL CHANGE GEAR UNEXPECTEDLY. CAUSE MY CAR TO JERK SHAKE AND UNUSUAL LONG DELAY TO ACCELERATE AT TIMES EVEN REV HIGH WHILE PROLONGED DELAY BEFORE ACCELERATING. THIS HAS CAUSED MULTIPLE SITUATIONS THAT MADE THE SAFETY OF DRIVING THIS VEHICLE UNPREDICTABLE AND A HAZARD FOR ME AND OTHER MOTORIST.

AIR BAGS, SERVICE BRAKES
MY CAR WAS WORKING PERFECTLY FINE UNTIL I LEFT WORK TODAY. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AS SOON AS I STARTED MY CAR AND IT KEPT SAYING 'CHECK PARKING BRAKE' AND 'CHECK AIRBAGS' I COULDN'T PUT MY CAR IN DRIVE OR REVERSE, IT WOULDN'T GO ANYWHERE. POSSIBLY BECAUSE THE PARKING BRAKE WOULDN'T LET ME DRIVE. VERY STRANGE, AS IT WAS SUDDEN AND UNEXPECTED.... HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH PARKING BRAKE OR AIRBAGS.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
MY 2016 CHRYSLER 200 STALLS RANDOMLY IN TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM OCEAN CITY, MD WHEN I HIT TRAFFIC AT THE BAY BRIDGE. I WAS TRYING TO SWITCH LANES WHEN I NOTICED MY POWER STEERING WAS NOT WORKING FOLLOWED BY A MESSAGE ON THE SCREEN STATING TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTART THE ENGINE. VEHICLE RESTARTED BUT WAS NOT SHIFTING CORRECTLY. HAPPENED A SECOND TIME IN A SIMILAR SITUATION. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN LOOKING FOR THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT INDICATING WHAT IS HAPPENING.

AIR BAGS
AS I HAVE OWENED THE CAR FOR OVER A YEAR NOW, HAVE NOT HAD ANY ISSUES BESIDES THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMING ON. THIS HAPPENED TODAY AS MY WIFE WAS TAKING MY SON TO DAYCARE. THIS IS AN ISSUE I HAVE SEEN AMONG THEESE CARS AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. I HAVE A 1 YEAR OLD AND I WOULD BE SUEING IF HE WERE TO GET INJURED BY THE SYSTEM CAUSED FROM POOR MANUFACTURING. PLEASE HAVE THIS ISSUE FIXED.

ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
STARTING IN OCTOBER 2018 THIS CAR HAS CUT OFF ON ME FOR NO REASON AT ANY GIVEN TIME. I WILL BE DRIVING AND IT WILL CUT OFF AND TELL ME TO SHIFT INTO PARK. SOMETIMES IT CRANKS BACK UP OTHER TIMES IT DOESN'T. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO LANDMARK CHRYSLER FIVE DIFFERENT TIMES. EACH TIME I AM TOLD THAT IT'S A DIFFERENT PROBLEM. AND EACH TIME THE CAR DOES THE EXACT SAME THING AGAIN. THIS HAS ENDANGERED MY LIFE AND THE LIFE OF MY TWO YEAR OLD SON. AFTER COMPLETING TWO DIFFERENT OIL CONSUMPTION TEST LANDMARK(MORROW,GA) STILL HASN'T BEEN ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM SO THE WARRANTY COMPANY WON'T FIX THE CAR. THEY KNOW THAT IT'S USING TOO MUCH OIL BUT THEY CLAIM THEY DON'T KNOW WHY. THIS CAR IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT. THEY JUST TRY TO GET YOU TO TRADE IT IN FOR ANOTHER CAR WITH A HIGHER PAYMENT. THIS PROBLEM REALLY NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED BEFORE IT CAUSES SOMEONE THEIR LIFE. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS WHEN THIS CAR HAS CUT OFF WITH NO WARNING AND NARROWLY MISSED BEING HIT BY A SEMI TRUCK. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER CORPORATE BUT THAT HAS GOTTEN ME NO WHERE BECAUSE THE PERSON I SPEAK WITH (WILL IN CUSTOMER CARE) DOES NOTHING AND CLAIMS THAT HE DOESN'T HAVE A SUPERVISOR THAT I CAN CONTACT.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I'VE BEEN INTO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OVER 6 TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUES. THIS CAR IS SO UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. MY CAR CREATES A VERY HARD JERKING WHEN SWITCHING GEARS OR SPEEDING UP. IT ALSO SHAKES WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONING IS ON AND I AM ONLY GETTING ABOUT 15 MI TO THE GALLON WHEN IT SHOULD BE 27. I'VE LEFT MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS SINCE I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE, WORKED WITH THE DEVICE DEPARTMENT, WORKED WITH CHRYSLER AND THE SITUATION AND SAFETY CONCERN IS STILL NOT RECTIFIED. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. IT'S MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION AND I WOULD LIKE TO KEEP MYSELF, MY 3 BABIES, AND OTHER DRIVERS SAFE. THANK YOU!
