ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, ENGINE TEMPERATURE WARNING LIGHT, AND ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON. IN REVIEWING THE POTENTIAL ISSUES, A NUMBER OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE, POTENTIALLY DUE TO A FAULTY THERMOSTAT. WHEN I HAD THE VEHICLE SCANNED AT AUTOZONE, IT PROVIDED CODES P0218 TWICE AND P2181 ONCE. *TR

ENGINE
AFTER 5 YEARS, I DISCOVERED THAT THERE IS A STAR ISSUE ON THIS CAR WITH CASTING SAND CONTAMINATING THE RADIATOR, COOLING AND HEATING SYSTEMS. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS TO CHARGE ME $2200 TO FIX EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE SINCE BEFORE I PURCHASED THE CAR. IT CAME OUT IN FEBRUARY 2011. STAR ISSUE S1109000002. FIRST MY AC DID NOT WORK. THE DEALER REPLACED. THEN MY HEAT DID NOT WORK BUT DEALER SAID IT WAS CONTAMINATED WITH CASTING SAND AND IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND IT IS NOT FAIR THAT YOU HAVE TO PAY BUT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL NOT REPAIR IF CONTAMINATED. THIS IS A KNOWN CHRYSLER PROBLEM FROM THE GET GO BUT NOT QUITE A RECALL. NOW PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO SELL 5 YEAR OLD CARS FOR PARTS ONLY. THERE WILL BE CERTAIN DEATHS FROM THIS ISSUE WHEN THE ENGINE EVENTUALLY SEIZES UP FROM ALL THIS CONTAMINATION AND CAUSES CRASHES. THE SERVICE MANAGER STATED THAT THE FIX ACTUALLY DOES NOT REALLY FIX THE CAUSE. IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN!!!! I SAID WHY DOESN'T THE DEALERSHIP PUT IN THE PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE SUGGESTED IN THE STAR ISSUE AND HE SAID BECAUSE IT DOES NOT HAPPEN TO EVERY CAR. SO BEWARE BUYING A 2011 CHRYSLER 200 BECAUSE IT IS BASICALLY A FIVE YEAR CAR PERIOD. THE STAR ISSUE NUMBER S1109000002 IS CAUSING ENGINES TO SEIZE UP DUE TO LARGE CONTAMINATION THROUGHOUT THE HVAC SYSTEM, RADIATOR, AND ENGINE AS IT SPREADS INTO EVERYTHING. IT IS LIKE DRIVING A TICKING TIME BOMB THAT HAS NO HEAT! IT HAS NOT BEEN A SAFETY PROBLEM YET BUT AS THESE VEHICLES GET TO BE MY MILEAGE, THESE ISSUES CAN BECOME QUITE SERIOUS, PARTICULARLY IF THEY DO NOT HAVE IT MONITORED BY A DEALER AND THE ENGINE JUST FREEZES ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE IT IS COMPLETELY CONTAMINATED WITH SAND. I PAID $30,000 FOR A FIVE YEAR CAR AND DEALER WILL NOT HONOR EXTENDED WARRANTY SO I MUST DRIVE A CAR THAT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE ANYMORE. THERE IS ALSO A CURRENT RECALL THAT AIRBAGS AND SEATBELT DO NOT WORK IN ACCIDENT. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER
WE LEFT CANADA TO GO ON A VACATION TO SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, THE TRIP WAS 3200 KILOMETRES. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE WIPERS WENT UP ABOUT 6 INCHES AND STOPPED WITHOUT BEING ON. LATER DID IT AGAIN. A FEW MORE TIMES. WE THEN TRIED TO TURN THEM ON AND IT WENT HALF WAY AND STOPPED. AFTER THAT IT DID ALL KINDS OF WEIRD THINKS FROM TURNING ON WHEN THE SWITCH WAS OFF. THIS PROBLEM CAUSED US TO HAVE TO STOP SEVERAL TIMES DURING OUR TRIP DUE TO RAINING AND SNOWING. THE LAST DAY WHEN WE FINALLY ARRIVED TO PALM SPRINGS, WHEN I SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF, THE WIPERS WERE ON AT FULL SPEED. I HAD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY TO STOP IT. I THEN WENT ON THE INTERNET AND DID SOME RESEARCH. THANK GOODNESS FOR PEOPLE POSTING THEIR PROBLEMS ON THE INTERNET, I WAS ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM TO THE TIPM. IT APPEARS TO BE A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH CHRYSLER TIPM'S. AND OF COURSE THIS IS NOT A WARRANTY ITEM AS THE WARRANTY HAD JUST EXPIRED IN JUNE. TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED WITH CHRYSLER'S WARRANTY AND RECALL OF THEIR TIPM'S. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ ABOUT THEIR TIPM PROBLEMS, IT HAS SERIOUS POTENTIAL FOR INJURY. IT CAN QUIT TOTALLY ALL OF A SUDDEN SHUTTING DOWN ALL POWER AND STOPPING THE VEHICLE ON A BUSY HIGHWAY.

SEAT BELTS, AIR BAGS
THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE AIRBAG AND SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER DEPLOYMENT CAPABILITY ON MY CAR THAT STARTED ON OCTOBER 1, 2016. WHEN I GOT THE RECALL NOTICE IN OCTOBER IT SAID THAT THERE WAS NO CURRENT REMEDY. IT'S NOW DECEMBER AND THERE STILL IS NO REMEDY WHICH MEANS THAT THE PROBLEM WON'T BE FIXED IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE WHICH IS OUTRAGEOUS. IF OUR LIVES ARE AT RISK BECAUSE A CAR COMPANY CAN'T GET OFF ITS [XXX] AND FIX THIS, THEN THE GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO INTERVENE. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR BECAUSE IN THE BACK OF MY MIND I KNOW THAT IT MIGHT NOT PROTECT ME COMPLETELY IF I GET IN A CRASH WHICH SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED NOW. *TR INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

AIR BAGS, SEATS
TAKATA RECALL WENT INTO HAYS DEALERSHIP PARTS DEPARTMENT IN LAWRENCEVILLE, GA ON MONDAY MORNING 10/31/16 WITH THE RECALL NOTICE AND ASK IF I CAN SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT FIX AND THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO AT THIS TIME UNTIL CHRYSLER CAN FIGURE OUT ON HOW TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. WHAT KIND OF CRAP IS THIS THEY CANNOT FIGURE OUT ON HOW TO 'FIX THE PROBLEM' WHAT ABOUT THE LEMON LAW ON VEHICLES THIS PROBLEM IS ONE OF THEM. CHRYSLER ADVERTISE ALONG WITH OTHER CAR DEALERS ON HOW SAFE THEIR CARS ARE WHICH IT SEEM NONE OF THE CARS ARE SAFE ANYMORE DUE TO POOR CRAFTSMANSHIP MAKE CHEAP TO CUT COST NO MATTER WHOM IT WILL EFFECT AND WAY OVERPRICED, IF YOU BROUGHT A WASH MACHINE, DRYER OR REFRIGERATOR IF THEY CANNOT FIX IT THEY WILL REPLACE IT WITH A NEW ONE OR ANY DEFECT ITEM THE COMPANY WILL FIX IT OR REPLACE IT. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO STEP UP AND DO THE HONORABLE THING 'FIX THE PROBLEM' OR REPLACE THE VEHICLE BEFORE IT IS TO LATE. ACTION NEEDS TO BE TAKEN ASAP! I TRIED EVERYTHING TO GET THE MY VEHICLE FIX AND GETTING NO WHERE WITH THIS WAITING TO 2023 IS NOT THE ANSWER HERE.
