ENGINE, STEERING, STRUCTURE:BODY
AS I PULLED OUT ONTO THE HIGHWAY, MY CAR BEGAN TO STALL, IT WOULD NOT PULL FORWARD. IT MADE A NOISE LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING OUT. SO, I CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND STARTED ON MY ROUTE AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. THE LAST TIME WAS 2/21/2015 AT JUST OVER 5100 MILES. MY CAR WOULD NOT CHANGE GEARS, SO I HAD TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART THE CAR IN ORDER FOR THE GEARS TO CHANGE. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT THE FLOOR BOARD ON THE DRIVE SIDE PASSENGER FLOOR IS WET. I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THE WATER IS COMING FROM.

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHEN DECELERATING GOING DOWN A SLIGHT INCLINE MY FOOT WAS OFF THE GAS PEDAL. AS I APPLIED THE BRAKE PEDAL THE CAR SHIFTED BUT HAD ACCELERATED AS THOUGH I HAD PUSHED ON THE GAS PEDAL. I HAD TO FORCEFULLY APPLY THE BRAKES EVEN HARDER TO KEEP FROM HITTING THE CAR IN FROM OF ME. I HAVE NOTICED THIS ON OTHER OCCASIONS AS WELL BUT THIS TIME WAS DIFFERENT AS THERE WAS SOMEONE IN FRONT OF ME. IT IS AS THOUGH WHEN THE CAR SHIFTS FROM 7TH TO 5TH AND ALSO FROM 5TH TO 3RD THE CAR LUNGES FORWARDS. I HAVE ALSO NOTICES THE CAR WILL PULL ITSELF UP A HILL WITHOUT APPLYING THE GAS PEDAL WHEN APPROACHING A STOP SIGN AT THE TOP OF THE HILL. I AM CONCERNED I MAY INADVERTENTLY REAR END ANOTHER VEHICLE WITH THIS ISSUE. *JS

POWER TRAIN
I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE IN MY BRAND NEW CHRYSLER 200 (BARELY 6,000 MILES ON IT) AROUND 6:00 AM, GOING ABOUT 78 MPH, WHEN SUDDENLY THE PARKING BRAKE APPEARED TO ENGAGE, THE RADIO WENT OFF WHILE WARNING BEEPS WERE GOING NON STOP, AND EVERY WARNING ON THE DASH WAS LIT UP, THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE, AND SEEMED TO THINK IT WAS IN PARK WHILE IT WAS ACTUALLY IN DRIVE. IT STILL WOULD NOT DRIVE (WAS ACTING AS THOUGH BRAKES WERE ON WHEN THEY WERE NOT) WHEN THE TOW TRUCK CAME 2 HOURS LATER AND THE DRIVER WAS TRYING TO GET IT ONTO THE BED. AS I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN MY CAR WENT INTO A SWIFT AND SUDDEN DECELERATION I WAS ALMOST SERIOUSLY INJURED AND, POTENTIALLY, COULD HAVE INJURED OTHERS. I WAS LUCKY IT WAS SO EARLY IN THE MORNING AND NO ONE WAS HURT. I HAVE NOT YET HEARD FROM THE DEALERSHIP AS THIS ONLY HAPPENED THIS MORNING, BUT I AM TERRIFIED TO EVER DRIVE THAT CAR AGAIN. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO BEFORE ANYONE IS INJURED OR KILLED DUE TO WHATEVER CAUSED THIS MALFUNCTION. *TR

POWER TRAIN
THE CONTROLS KNOBS FOR THE RADIO VOLUME AND STATION SELECTION, THE FAN SPEED AND THE TRANSMISSION SELECTION ARE ALL CLUSTERED AT THE FRONT OF THE CENTER BETWEEN THE SEATS CONSOLE. ALL ARE SIMILAR ROTARY KNOBS AND ARE CLOSE TOGETHER. WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED. YOU CAN NOT CHANGE THE GEAR SELECTOR WITH OUT PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDDLE. WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION. THE GEAR SELECTOR CAN BE MOVED FROM ?D? DRIVE TO ?N? NEUTRAL, TO ?R? REVERSE, TO ?P? PARK UN-RESTRICTED. EXAMPLE: AS YOU ARE DRIVING. YOU REACH DOWN TO CHANGE THE FAN SPEED. YOU MISTAKENLY CHANGE FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE. THE CAR WILL START TO SLOW DOWN AND STOP. IT YOU ARE WATCHING TRAFFIC AND YOU DO NOT HAVE THE DRIVER INFORMATION DISPLAY SET TO SEE THE GEAR INDICATOR. YOU MAY BE CONFUSED AND DO NOT KNOW WHY YOUR CAR IS STOPPING IN TRAFFIC. THERE SHOULD BE A DETENT (LIKE ALL OTHER CARS I OWNED). DRIVING THEM YOU CAN CHANGE FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL AND BACK WHILE IN MOTION. YOU CAN NOT CHANGE FROM NEUTRAL TO REVERSE OR PARK WITH OUT HAVING YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
CRUSE SET ON CRUSE. IT IS DONE SMOOTHLY. EXAMPLE: YOU ARE ON CRUSE CONTROL DRIVING AT SPEED 'X. YOU WANT TO CHANGE TO SPEED'. YOU PRESS THE + OR - BUTTON. WHEN YOU REACH THE DESIRED NEW SPEED. YOU RELEASE THE BUTTON. YOU ARE NOW AT YOUR NEW SPEED. CHRYSLER 200, YOU ARE TRAVELING AT A SET SPEED. YOU PRESS THE DESIRED SPEED DIRECTION. THE CAR DOES NOT CHANGE SPEED. LET SAY YOU HELD THE BUTTON FOR 10 SECOND. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR DRASTICALLY CHANGES SPEED. EXAMPLE: I WAS TRAVELING THE EXPRESSWAY AT 55 MPH. I WAS NOW ABLE TO TRAVEL AT 70MPH. I PRESSED AND HELD THE '+' BUTTON. AFTER A SHORT BUT NOTICEABLE LENGTH OF TIME. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR ACCELERATED DRAMATICALLY TO 85MPH BEFORE I HIT THE OFF BUTTON. I ASKED THE DEALER SERVICE MANAGER. HE TOLD ME TO HIT THE CHANGE BUTTON FOR ONLY ONE SECOND TO CHANGE 1MPH. IF I HOLD IT FOR ABOUT 2 SECONDS. THE CAR WILL CHANGE SPEED BY 5MPH. IF I HOLD THE BUTTON FOR MORE THAT A FEW SECONDS. HE COULD TELL ME HOW FAR THE SPEED WILL CHANGE. IF YOU ARE NOT AWARE OF THAT PROBLEM. IT COULD BE A KILLER. THE CRUSE CONTROL SHOULD BE LIMITED TO 5MPH CHANGE AND NOT INFINITY. *TR

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING ON I95 AT 60 MPH IN THE CENTER LANE, THE CAR COMPLETELY LOST POWER. NEAR THE 216 ON RAMP TO I95N. ONLY BECAUSE I WAS AN EXPERIENCED DRIVER WAS I ABLE TO RECOGNIZE WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND SAFELY GET OVER AND OFF ON TO THE SOFT SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND AVOID A FATAL ACCIDENT. CAR STILL SAID "RUN" AND I HAD TO GET OUT ON SHOULDER AND WALK FAR AWAY FROM CAR TO DISENGAGE THE KEY FOB AND THEN RETURN TO THE CAR AND TURN IT OFF. AFTER TURNING OFF AND LEAVING OFF FOR 5+ MIN, ATTEMPTED TO RESTART. TOW TRUCK HAD TO BE CALLED. AFTER 4 DAYS AT DEALER, THEY ARE STILL UNABLE TO IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM. ALL WE HAVE BEEN TOLD IS THEY ARE UNABLE TO GET THE 4 COILS TO FIRE AT THE SAME TIME. THIS IS SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM! *TR

ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I PURCHASED MY CAR BRAND NEW IN JUNE 2014. IN MID AUGUST 2014 ON INTERSTATE 110. AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP MY CAR SHUT OFF, AS IF IT HAD STALLED. I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART IT AND IT JERKED WILDLY AND WOULD NOT START. AFTER A FEW MORE ATTEMPTS IT EVENTUALLY STARTED ONLY TO SHUT OFF AGAIN ON INTERSTATE 105W. I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 70MPH IN LANE 1 WHEN THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND THE PANEL INSTRUCTED ME TO SHIFT INTO PARK. THE DRIVER PANEL DISPLAYED ?SERVICE TRANSMISSION? AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN INDICATED THAT THE COMPUTER NEEDED TO BE ?RELEARNED? AND PROVIDED DOCUMENTATION OF SEVERAL CORRUPTED CODES THAT WERE FIXED. TWO DAYS LATER I EXPERIENCED THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. THEY DETERMINED THAT I HAD AN ISSUE WITH MY TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY. AFTER I GOT MY CAR BACK I NOTICED THAT THE TRANSITION BETWEEN GEARS IS VERY ROUGH. FURTHERMORE THE GEAR SHIFTING SEEMS DELAYED, AS THE GEARS ARE OFTEN VERY INCONSISTENT WITH THE DRIVING SPEED. FINALLY I NOTICE THAT AS I BRAKE OR LOWER MY SPEED THE GEARS DO NOT ADJUSTING ACCORDINGLY. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THIS IS MOSTLY A PROBLEM WHEN I BRAKE TO A SPEED LOWER THAN ABOUT 25MPH. IN THESE INSTANCES, UNLESS I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT DROP BELOW 3RD GEAR. I REPORTED THIS PROBLEM AND RECEIVED A ENTIRELY NEW TRANSMISSION. NOW, ABOUT 6,000 MILES LATER I AM EXPERIENCING THE SAME SHIFTING ISSUES. *TR

ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ON THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STOPPED ACCELERATING. THE ENGINE DID NOT DIE, BUT I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE OR MAINTAIN SPEED, THE VEHICLE JUST SUDDENLY STARTED SLOWING DOWN. WHILE THIS WAS OCCURRING, THE "D" ON THE DASH WAS FLASHING, AS WERE THE LIGHTS ON THE GEAR SHIFT KNOB. I ORIGINALLY ATTEMPTED TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO NEUTRAL, BUT IT HAD NO IMPACT ON THE VEHICLE AT ALL. I MOVED TOWARD THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO A STOP, SHUT IT DOWN AND RESTARTED. IT STARTED BACK UP WITHOUT A PROBLEM. I SCHEDULED THE VEHICLE TO GO INTO THE DEALER ON THE FIRST AVAILABLE DATE. THE DEALER CLAIMED IT WAS A "SOFTWARE UPDATE" ISSUE. IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE SINCE, BUT I HAVE SO FAR NOT BEEN ABLE TO RETURN TO THE DEALER DUE TO WORK CONSTRAINTS. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WITHOUT NOTICE THE CAR DID NOT WANT TO PICK UP SPEED GOING UP HILL - NJ ROUTE 280 WEST. ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED. ALSO WHEN TRYING TO STOP THE CAR - IT JOLTS FORWARD BEFORE SLOWING DOWN. THIS IS DANGEROUS - I WAS TOLD BY AN EMPLOYEE OF THE RENTAL AGENCY THAT 2 OTHER PEOPLE HAD THE SAME INCIDENT HAPPEN TO THEM AND THEY RETURNED THE CARS. I FEAR SOMEONE WILL GET SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES BEFORE PRECIOUS LIVES ARE LOST OR PERMANENTLY INJURED. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM THE DEALER FOUR MONTHS AGO. IN THAT TIME I HAVE HAD SOME UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCES. AT FIRST IT WAS LITTLE THINGS, SUCH AS NOT BEING ABLE TO START THE CAR, OR THE KEYFOB DIDN'T WORK CORRECTLY. ALTHOUGH THOSE WERE NAGGING THEY WERE EASILY DEALT WITH. LAST WEEK I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET DOING ABOUT 40MPH, AND THE CARS DISPLAY STARTED THROWING ERROR MESSAGES, SUCH AS SERVICE TRANSMISSION. THE CAR FELT LIKE IT HAD STALLED AND I HAD NO POWER TO THE GAS, BRAKE OR STEERING WHEEL. LUCKILY I WAS NOT ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED OR THE LIKELIHOOD OF ME GETTING IN AN ACCIDENT WOULD BE VERY HIGH, BEING THAT THIS WAS IN THE EVENING. SO, I AM STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WITH A CAR THAT STILL HAS ACCESSORY POWER, BUT I WAS NOT ABLE TO SHIFT THE CAR INTO PARK, OR DRIVE. I WAS ABLE TO SHUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTART IT FINE, BUT AGAIN COULDN'T SHIFT. AFTER ABOUT 20 MINUTES THE CAR SHIFTED INTO GEAR, AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT, ALBEIT VERY SLOWLY SINCE THE ENGINE WOULD NOT REV PAST 2000 RPMS. I CHECKED FOR ANY SERVICE BULLETINS AND SEE THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR SEVERAL PEOPLE. THERE WAS NOT A FIX ASSOCIATED WITH THIS. I BROUGHT THE CAR IN TO YOUR SERVICE DEPARTMENT, AND THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO RECREATE THE ISSUE. SO, NOW I AM STUCK WITH A BRAND NEW CAR WITH ROUGHLY 2200 MILES THAT I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE. IF/WHEN THIS HAPPENS AGAIN I HOPE I'M NOT ON THE HIGHWAY OR ANY ROAD ACTUALLY AS THE CHANCE OF AN ACCIDENT IS VERY HIGH. I DON'T FEEL SAFE. I HAVE NEVER HAD SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN TO ME, SO I HONESTLY DON'T KNOW HOW TO PROCEED. *TR
