ENGINE
I WAS DRIVING AROUND 40-50 MPH WHEN MY VEHICLE SHUT DOWN FOR NO REASON AND WITH NO WARNING. THE ONLY WARNING WAS AFTER IT SHUT DOWN AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD TO SWERVE OUT OF TRAFFIC WITH NO POWER STEERING AND TURN THE IGNITION TO OFF. THAT I STARTED IT BACK UP AND IT DROVE FINE BUT WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STILL ON. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS AND ABOUT DEALERS DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT. SOME COMPLAINTS INVOLVING INJURIES AND CHILDREN. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS BECAUSE I AM NOW STUCK WITH A LEMON THAT IS NOT WORTH WHAT I OWE.

I NEED TO GET THIS SOLVED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, DRIVING WITH A DEFECTIVE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE FOR ANYONE. ESPECIALLY MY TODDLER IN THE BACK SEAT, IT MAY NOT SEEM LIKE A LIFE THREAT HOWEVER IT IS IF I LOOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I AM SCARED OF DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AT THE MOMENT.

ENGINE
I WAS DRIVING MY 2012 CHRYSLER 200 AND IT STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD SUDDENLY WITH OUT ANY WARNING. IT HAPPENED TO ME 8 TIMES IN A ROW NOW WITH IN WEEK. I JUST SEE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON IN THE DASHBOARD AND THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF COMPLETELY. IF I TRY TO RESTART THE CAR IT STARTS ONLY AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF FOR FEW MINS. I HAD IT CHECKED A COUPLE OF TIMES WITH A MECHANIC BUT THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO FIX IT. DRIVING THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE AS IT STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND LOCKS THE STEERING AS WELL.

I RECEIVED NOTICE OF THIS RECALL IN SEPTEMBER 2016. THE PIECES NEEDED TO REPAIR AND REMEDY THIS ISSUE STILL ARE NOT AVAILABLE ALMOST AN ENTIRE YEAR LATER. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE TO ME. ESPECIALLY WHEN IT PERTAINS TO AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT AND THE TOTAL FUNCTION OF THE SEATBELT! WHAT IS GOING WITH THIS RECALL?!

MY 2015 CHRYSLER 200 LIMITED HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING THE SAME THING AS ALL OTHER REPORTS. 06/08/17 CAR TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING AND WOULD NOT IMMEDIATELY TURN BACK ON. WHEN IT DID IT WOULD SPUTTER AND THEN STALL. 06/09/17. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON CODE P2172 FOR THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL SYSTEM AND THE CAR WOULD NOT LET ME ACCELERATE PAST 32 MPH. ONE OF THE POSSIBLE ISSUES WOULD BE AN OPEN OR SHORT IN THE WIRE HARNESS. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS DISCUSSED IN THE R24 RECALL HOWEVER, MY VIN IS NOT ON THE LIST YET. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY UNSAFE VEHICLE AND IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. I'M CONFIDENT THAT THERE ARE MORE THAN ENOUGH PEOPLE TO BEGIN A CLASS ACTION SUIT. IF I HAVE TO POST ON HERE AGAIN AND ADD ACCIDENT, INJURY, OR DEATH. THE LAWSUIT WILL HOLD A VERY DIFFERENT MEANING.

POWER TRAIN
SEVERAL RECALLS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED AND WE HAVE RECEIVED 2 DIFFERENT NEW TRANSMISSIONS; HOWEVER, WE CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE SLOPPY GEAR SHIFTS AND INCONSISTENT SLUGGISH ACCELERATION. WHEN ACCELERATION IS NEEDED, THE ENGINE WILL SOMETIMES REV UP TO 5000 RPMS FOR 1 TO 2 SECONDS BEFORE FEELING A HARSH SLIP INTO GEAR WHICH CAUSES THE CAR TO JERK. IN CLOSE ENCOUNTER SITUATIONS THIS LEAVES A VERY UNEASY FEELING THAT YOU ARE UNABLE TO GET OUT OF DANGER IN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME. THE ACTION SEEMS TO OCCUR MOST OFTEN WHEN DECELERATING QUICKLY AND THEN ACCELERATING QUICKLY AS IF THE VEHICLE IS STUCK IN TOO HIGH A GEAR FOR A SECOND OR TWO AND THEN HARSHLY DOWN SHIFTS AS YOU HAVE IT FLOORED BECAUSE IT ISN'T GOING ANYWHERE. DEALERS CAN'T ALWAYS REPRODUCE IN THE BRIEF TEST DRIVES THEY CONDUCT. RECENTLY, THEY FLASHED THE "QUICK LEARN" COMPONENT AND SAY IT NOW APPEARS TO BE DRIVING AS DESIGNED...BUT IF THIS IS THE DESIGN, IT SEEMS VERY UNSAFE.

PURCHASED A USED CHRYSLER 200 IN FEBRUARY 2017 AT 87,XXX MI. IT IS NOW JUNE 2017 AND 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 3 DAYS MY CAR HAS SUDDENLY DIED. THE FIRST TIME I WAS SLOWING DOWN AND MADE A RIGHT TURN AND UPON ACCELERATING IT DIED, DASH LIGHTS ILLUMINATED, QUICKLY TRIED TO RESTART AND WAS UNSUCCESSFUL WITH JUST NOTHING HAPPENING WHEN TURNING KEY. TOOK KEY OUT OF IGNITION AND RETRIED AND STARTED RIGHT UP. NEXT DAY I WAS AGAIN SLOWING DOWN AND MAKING A RIGHT TURN AND BAM SAME THING SAME DETAILS. 3RD INCIDENT I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT AND THE CAR STALLED THIS TIME I WAS DOING ABOUT 15 MPH AND THE STEERING LOCKED UP, QUICKLY TOOK KEY OUT AND RESTARTED. ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND DIAGNOSED AS CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR MALFUNCTION. REPLACED THE SENSOR AND HAVE ONLY DRIVEN FOR SHORT DISTANCE AS THE FIRST 2 TIMES THIS HAPPENED WERE TERRIFYING ENOUGH. AFTER HOURS OF ONLINE RESEARCH I'VE FOUND THIS IS COMMON AND JUST BEING NEGLECTED. CHRYSLER FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SUSPENSION
DROVE THE CAR FROM GERMANTOWN MD TO WASHINGTON DC FOR A PROGRAM, GOT IN THE CAR TWO HOURS LATER. DOOR UNLOCKED WITH REMOTE, PLACE FOOT ON BRAKE, DASH LIGHTS AND RADIO TURNS ON CAR WON'T START. STOP RECOGNIZING MY REMOTE IN THE CAR. I HAD PEOPLE TRY HOOKING UP JUMPER CABLES, NOTHING HAPPEN. AFTER TWO HOURS OF TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT'S WRONG CAR STARTS. DRIVE THE CAR HOME WITH NO ISSUES. NEXT MORNING CAR WON'T START SAME THING HAPPENING. I LOOKED DOWN AND NOTICED THE CAR SHOWING IN NEUTRAL WHEN THE KNOB TURNED TO PARK. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM READING MY CAR IN NEUTRAL BUT IT'S NOT THEREFORE IT WON'T START. I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR THE RECALL AND CRISWELL ONLY DID A UPDATING OF SOFTWARE, THE REWIRING OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WASN'T DONE. THE RECALL WASN'T DONE AS CALLED FOR AND THE REMOTE IS A REPLACEMENT AFTER THEY LOST MY ORIGINAL.
