ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY CHRYSLER 200 YEAR 2015 AND WHILE DRIVING IT ON THE FREEWAY IT WILL MOT GET THE SPEED UP. THE MIST IT GOES IS ABOUT 60 MILES PER HOUR AND THIS IS WHEN IM ALREADY ON THE FREEWAY. WHEN ENTERING THE FREEWAY IT GOES IN VERY SLOWLY I PUSH GAS PEDAL AND IT WON'T GO PAST 40 MILES PER HOUR. ALSO AT ANY TIME WHILE DRIVING IT, IT STARTS PULLING ITSELF LIKE IF IT WANTS TO TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING. I FEEL THIS US VERY DANGEROUS FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. I HAVE CHANGED SPARK PLUGS AND COILS AND IT CONTINUES TO NIT FUNCTION CORRECTLY.

NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I CHANGE THE BRAKES AND ROTORS AND MASTER CONTROL THEY NEVER STOP SQUEAKING .

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
MY 2015 CHRYSLER 200 LIMITED WOULD NOT START AND THE BRAKE WAS EXTREMELY TIGHT. I WAS GLAD I WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE AND NOT DRIVING ONLY TO HAVE IT STALL. THE LIGHTS AND RADIO CAME ON AT FIRST. I THOUGHT MAYBE MY KEY FOB BATTERY WAS LOW SO I USED ANOTHER KEY FOB WITH A FRESH BATTERY. WELL IT STILL DIDN'T START. SO WENT TO WORK. LUCKILY I HAVE AN OLD CAR I COULD USE. WHEN I CAME HOME TO SEE IF THE CAR WOULD START IT WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. NO LIGHTS, NO DASHBOARD LIGHTS, TRUNK WON'T OPEN, DOORS WON'T LOCK AND UNLOCK. JUST COMPLETELY DEAD. I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR FOUR YEARS NOW AND IT HAS GIVEN ME A COUPLE OF PROBLEMS BUT THIS IS THE WORST. I WISH I HAD NEVER BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE. IT IS A TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY. NOW I WILL HAVE TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AGAIN!

FIRST THING, THE TIRE PRESSURE IS ALWAYS SHOWING UNEVEN PRESSURE. THE MAN ISSUES WITH THIS CAR IS THAT IT CUTS OFF WHILE YOU'RE DRIVING. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT SPEED YOU'RE GOING. IT JUST SHUTS OFF. RECENTLY, IT DIDN'T WANT TO START BACK UP.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
ATC TEMPERATURE CONTROL UNIT IS NOT SENDING POWER AND GROUND TO THE LEFT SIDE BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR, SO THE HEAT AND DEFOGGER DOESN'T WORK CAUSING IT TO BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THE ROAD WHEN CONDITIONS WARRANT THE DEFOGGER IS NEEDED. DURING ADVERSE WEATHER ON 8/24 (UNSEASONABLY COOL AND RAINING IN CENTRAL NC), I COULD NOT SEE THE ROAD BECAUSE THE WINDSHIELD FOGGED UP AND AS NOTED, THE DEFOGGER ISN'T WORKING.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
CAR SUDDENLY DIED IN TRAFFIC AND WOULDN'T START BACK. CAR HAS 66K MILES. AFTER GETTING A JUMP WE GOT CAR HOME AND HOOKED BATTERY TO A CHARGER. NEXT TIME I WENT TO DRIVE IT IT DIED AGAIN AND I WAS ABLE TO GET IT STARTED BACK BUT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BLINKS ON AND OFF AND ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS START GOING ON AND OFF. CURRENTLY UNABLE TO DRIVE IT BECAUSE IT WILL JUST DIE WHILE DRIVING AND WITH INSTRUMENT PANEL BLINKING IT DOESN'T SHOW ACCURATE SPEED. PLEASE RECALL THIS CAR BEFORE IT KILLS SOMEONE!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 35 TO 40 MPH AND THE CAR SUDDENLY BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN TO 5 MILES AN HOUR. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND IT SHUT OFF. I HAD IT TOWED WHERE THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT WAS THE BATTERY.THEY KEPT MY CAR FOR TWO DAYS. FOR A NEW BATTERY. SO I POPPED UP THERE WITH MY FIANC AND DROVE AROUND TO THE BACK SIDE OF THE DEALERSHIP. I GOT IN MY CAR IT STARTED RIGHT UP. MY CAR HAD NOT BEEN TOUCHED OR ANYTHING. I WENT TO THE SERVICE CASHIER WHERE HE TRIED TO SAY THAT PUT A BRAND NEW BATTERY IN IT. BUT I PULLED UP MY CELL PHONE PICS SHOWING IT'S THE SAME BATTERY THAT I PUT RED FINGER NAIL POLISH ON TO SHOW IT'S MY SAME BATTERY. THEY MADE ME PAY FOR ' LOOKING ST MY CAR' EVEN THOUGH THEY DIDN'T. I NEVER BOUGHT ANOTHER BATTERY. I DROVE MY CAR OFF THE LOT AND THE NEXT DAY IT DID THE SAME THING AGAIN EXCEPT THIS TIME THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS STIFF AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO TURN THE NOZZLE TO PUT IT IN GEAR. I HAD IT TOWED TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS 'THE BATTERY'. THEY JUMPED MY CAR OFF AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. THE A/C IS GOING IN AND OUT AND IT SMELLS MOLDY WHEN I AM ABLE TO START THE PIECE OF SHIT. I TRIED TO TRADE MY CAR IN THIS PASSED SUNDAY AND THEY SAID I NEEDED A CONSIGNER AND 10K DOWN. I DON'T HAVE BAD CREDIT. THEY WERE JUST SAYING THAT BECAUSE THEY KNOW MY CAR ISN'T WORTH ANYTHING. THE SALESMAN ANTOINE STRONG TOLD ME IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THE TRANSMISSION GOES OUT. I HAVE 75K MILES ON MY CAR. IT HAS BEEN ONE NIGHTMARE AFTER THE OTHER. THIS IS THE WORST CAR I HAVE EVER HAD. PLEASE HELP ME GET OUT OF THIS CAR. OH THE DEALERSHIP I GOT THIS SHITTY CAR FROM IS LANDMARK DODGE JEEP CHRYSLER RAM IN MORROW, GA. THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT WHAT TYPE OF CAR YOU WANT THEY ONLY WANT TO PUT YOU IN A NEW CAR. THEY SEND ME THOUSANDS OF FLYERS A YEAR TO TRADE MY CAR IN BUT WHEN I DO THEY DON'T WANT IT. I WAS JUST TOLD BY ANTOINE STRONG!

POWER TRAIN
ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE THE CALL WOULD STALL, LOSE POWER AND SIMPLY SHUT OFF. NO WARNING AT ALL. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON THE INTERSTATE, CITY HIGHWAY AND CITY ROADS. USUALLY AFTER 2 -3 ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE CAR, IT WILL START AND PROCEED. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, ONE TIME IT STALLED ON THE INTERSTATE AND WHEN I PRESSED THE BRAKE TO TRY AND STOP, THE BRAKING SYSTEM DOES NOT FUNCTION THE SAME WHEN THE CAR IS NOT ON VERSES WHEN THE CAR IS RUNNING. IT ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HIT THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. ONE A SEPARATE OCCASION, IT STALLED ON THE CITY ROAD HEADED TO WORK, GOING UP A HILL AND THE CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST COLLIDED WITH ME. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMONLY REPORTED PROBLEM ON MANY REVIEW SITES FO THE CHRYLSER 200. WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO GET SOME ATTENTION TO THIS ISSUE, FOR THE RIGHT PERSON TO GET IN A BAD ACCIDENT???

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS CHANGED ON TUES., JULY 30, 2019 AS THE RESULT OF A RECALL NOTICE FROM CHRYSLER. WAS TOLD AFTER THE REPLACEMENT WAS DONE THAT I WOULD SMELL BURNING A LITTLE FOR ABOUT A WEEK UNTIL THE NEW CONVERTER WAS BROKEN IN. I DID SMELL THIS WHILE DRIVING. IT WAS DRIVEN THE FOLLOWING DAY FOR A TOTAL OF APPROX. 80 MILES. MY LUNGS WERE AFFECTED BADLY. BROUGHT IT BACK IN TO THE SHOP (CHRYSLER CERTIFIED) NEXT DAY, BUT NO PROBLEMS FOUND. DROVE IT ONE MORE DAY, BUT THE PAIN IN MY LUNGS INCREASED. SINCE THEN, HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE CAR. WAS DIAGNOSED BY A DOCTOR WITH ASTHMA AND PUT ON A STEROID INHALER. NEVER HAD LUNG PROBLEMS PREVIOUSLY. CHEST X-RAY AND PULMONARY TESTS NORMAL. CHRYSLER WANTS ME TO BRING IT TO ANOTHER CERTIFIED SHOP FOR REVIEW, BUT IT IS FAR AND WOULD REQUIRE TOWING. SINCE THEN HAVING A LOT OF PAIN IN MY LUNGS 3 WEEKS LATER. I BELIEVE IT IS BECAUSE OF THE NEW CATALYTIC CONVERTER.
