THE TRANSMISSION IS SWITCHING GEARS HARD LIKE IT IS SKIPPING A GEAR. SEEMS LIKE IT IS DOING IT BETWEEN 1 & 3 OR DECELERATING 3 TO 1. IT IS WORSE DURING WINTER MONTHS. THE JERK CAN BE SO HARD SOMETIMES.

I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP-STEVENS CREEK CHRYSLER . THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM AND CHARGED ME $200.

TAKATA RECALL MY CAR IS STUCK IN NEUTRAL THE GEAR KNOB WILL TURN BUT IT'S NOT SWITCHING GEARS AND IT ALSO SAYS SERVICE PARK BRAKES AND I KNOW MY BRAKES ARE GOOD. I'VE LOOKED ONLINE AND A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME CAR IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. IT HAPPENS WHEN YOU'RE RIDING DOWN THE ROAD BUT THIS PARTICULAR TIME IT WAS PARKED. THAT CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS. IF MORE THAN ONE PERSON IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM THEN SOMETHING MUST BE WRONG.

SINCE THE FIRST DAY I BOUGHT THIS CAR I NOTICED THERE WAS A HARD JOLT WHEN IT SHIFTED GEARS. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP RIGHT AWAY AND THEY FOUND THAT IT NEEDED NEW TRANSMISSION MOUNTS. ONCE THEY FIXED IT AND I GOT THE CAR BACK, THE PROBLEM STILL CONTINUED. I TOOK IT BACK AGAIN AND THEY FOUND THAT THE CHIP NEEDED AN UPDATE SO THEY TOOK IT TO THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP FOR THE UPDATE AND FURTHER INSPECTION. WHEN I GOT THE CAR BACK THE PROBLEM WAS STILL THERE. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIPS AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS MODEL YEAR CAR IS KNOWN FOR HAVING A ROUGH TRANSMISSION AND THAT I HAVE TO PRETTY MUCH DEAL WITH IT. THE JOLTING HAPPENS EVERY TIME I ACCELERATE AND IT'S PRETTY VIOLENT, IT DOESN'T FEEL SAFE. THE ROUGHEST JOLTING HAPPENS BETWEEN 2ND AND 3ED GEAR AND IT FEELS LIKE YOU'VE BEEN REAR-ENDED CAUSING YOU TO PUMP YOUR BREAKS. THE JOLTING CAN ALSO BE FELT WHEN YOU GO FROM PARK TO DRIVE, FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE AND REVERSE TO DRIVE OR PARK.

AIR BAGS, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
TAKATA RECALL. I GOT A LETTER COUPLE MONTHS AGO ABOUT A RECALL ON THE AIR BAGS SAYING THAT THEY ARE DEFECTED AND THE COMPANY WHO PUT THEM IN ARE GOING BANKRUPT. SINCE I BEEN DRIVING THE CHRYSLER(2017) ITS HAS BEEN STALLING WHEN I DRIVE. WHEN I BROUGHT IT I ASKED ME MAN WAS THERE ANYTHING WRONG HE SAID NO. THERE IS STILL STALLING WHEN I DRIVE AS IF ITS SWITCHING GEARS(KINDA LIKE A STICK SHIFT) IT'S SCARY BECAUSE I HAVE KIDS AND PLACES I TAKE THE CAR TO IS SAYING ITS ITS SUPPOSE TO DO THAT. I'VE DROVE MANY CARS AND NEVER EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM. WHEN I'M ON THE HIGHWAY AN I'M ON AUTO CRUISE IT SHIFTS FROM THE # I HAVE IT ON TO A HIGHER LEVEL THEN ONCE AGAIN IT'S LIKE IT WANTS TO STALLS AND KINDA JERKS. THAT'S NOT NORMAL AT ALL BECAUSE IF I'M ON AUTO CRUISE AT 65 MPH WHY WOULDNT OT JUST STAY THERE INSTEAD OF JUST TRYING TO SWITCH GEARS? EVERY DAY WHEN I LEAVE ITS JERKS WHEN I PULL OFF AS I'D IT'S A STICKS SHIFT. HAPPENS LITERALLY ALL THE TIME. I TOOK IT TO DIFFERENT SHOPS ONE SAYS IT'S A RECALL BUT OTHERS SAY IT'S NOTHING WRONG AND I CANT FIND ANYTHING ON WHO I'M SUPPOSE TO TALK TO AND REALLY GET THIS LOOKED AT

ENGINE
MY CHRYSLER 200 STARTED SHUTTING ITSELF OFF WHILE DRIVING. THE LIGHTS AND RADIO STAY ON BUT THE BRAKES AND STEERING ARE MANUAL. THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THAT I WAS LOW ON OIL AND THAT THE CAR IS EQUIPPED WITH A SAFETY FEATURE TO SHUT THE CAR OFF WHEN OIL IS LOW. THIS CAR IS 10 MTHS OLD AND ONLY 11K MILES. IT CONTINUED AFTER THAT VISIT AND AFTER SHAMING CHRYSLER ON TWITTER, THEY OPTED TO REPLACE THE MOTOR. THE PROBLEM IS THIS CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. THE ENGINES ARE THE SAME AND THIS PROBLEM WILL KILL SOMEONE. THE AUTO IS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A LOW OIL LIGHT AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD TO CHECK OIL EVERY MONTH! I AM PICKING THE CAR UP TODAY WITH AN ENGINE THAT IS NEW TO THIS CAR BUT, I AM PETRIFIED TO DRIVE IT. IF IT SHUTS OFF ON THE FREEWAY, HOW AM I TO GET OVER BEFORE I GET HIT. CHRYSLER STATES THAT IS NO PROBLEM IF THIS ENGINE IS FAULTY BECAUSE THEY WILL COVER UNDER WARRANTY. WHAT WILL IT TAKE-SOMEONE DYING? I DO NOT WANT TO BE THAT PERSON. SINCE I AM GOING TO GET THIS DEATH TRAP I CALLED TO MAKE SURE THEY FIXED THE CRUISE CONTROL. DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THE CAR IS NOT ON RECALL. FROM ALL MY RESEARCH ALL 200'S ARE ON RECALL. SO, NOW I HAVE A CAR THAT WILL TURN OFF WHEN THE OIL GETS LOW (WITH NO WARNING LIGHT TO TELL YOU OIL IS LOW) AND I CANNOT USE THE CRUISE CONTROL.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE THE DASHBOARD/INSTRUMENT CLUSTER KEEPS ON FLASHING IN AND OUT, STAYING OFF FOR AT LEASE 5 SECONDS AT A TIME. AT NIGHT THE HEADLIGHTS ALSO FLICKER ON AND OFF. THE CAR ALSO TENDS TO PICK UP SPEED WHILE BRAKING. LETS TALK ABOUT THE BRAKES, THE BRAKES ABSOLUTELY SUCK, THEY DON'T HOLD PROPERLY AT ALL. WHILE COMING TO A STOP I OFTEN HAVE TO SINK MY FOOT INTO THE PEDDLE AND GIVE MYSELF EXTRA FEET TO STOP.

I WAS COMING TO A STOP AT A STOP SIGN, I WAS AT ABOUT 15MPH WHEN THE DASH LIGHTS CAME ON. THE PARKING BRAKE ACTIVATED AND THE TRANSMISSION DROPPED OUT OF GEAR AS I CAME TO A SKIDDING HALT. SERVICE TRANSMISSION AND SERVICE PARKING BRAKE MESSAGES CAME UP ON THE DASH. THEN WOULDN'T SHIFT INTO ANY OTHER GEARS EVEN WITH THE TRANSMISSION OVERRIDE PULLED. LUCKILY I WAS ON A QUIETER ROAD IN MY TOWN.
