ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
TRANSMISSION ISSUES FOR ALMOST A YEAR. I HAVE EXPLAINED THEM TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO REFUSES TO DOCUMENT. I PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW THE SUMMER OF 2015. IT HAD SEALANTS MISSSING FROM THE MANUFACTURE AND SO IT HAD A LEAK THAT RESULTED IN THE DEALERSHIP HAVING MY CAR FOR 2 MONTHS AND ME HAVING TO FORCE THEM TO REPLACE MY CARPETING THEY LET SIT IN THE SUN FOR 2 WEEKS AND MOLD AND TO REPLACE PARTS IN MY CAR THAT THEY BROKE THE CLIPS ON TRYING TO FIND THE LEAK. SEVERAL TIMES THEY CALLED ME TO COME AND GET MY CAR WITH MOLD IN IT AND PARTS STILL HANGING. I HAD TO GET MANAGERS INVOLVED. I CAME TO GET AN OIL CHANGE ONCE AND THEY SENT ME OUT ONTO THE STREET WITHOUT TIGHTENING THE LUGS AND I WAS WOBBLING DOWN THE STREET AND THEY LIED AND SAID THE PRESSURE WAS OFF BALANCE. ONCE MY CAR SHUT OFF WITH NO OIL IT. THEY SAID IT'S LIKELY THE ENGINE. MY TIRE PRESSURE HAS BEEN SAYING ITS LOW SINCE ABOUT A WEEK AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR. SOON AS I PUT AIR IN, LESS THAN 24 HOURS ITS LOW. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS HAVE ALWAYS SOUNDED EXTREMELY LOUD. I HAD A THERMOMETER GO OUT BEFORE 3 YRS OLD. I BARELY HAVE 30,000 MILES ON MY CAR RIGHT NOW. NOW MY CAR WOULDN'T STAY ON WHEN I TRIED TO TAKE IT OUT OF PARK IN MY DRIVEWAY THURS. IT STALLED FOR A SECOND TO START UP THEN IT WOULDN'T COME BACK ON. I TRIED SEVERAL TIMES UNTIL IT CRANKED UP LIKE NORMAL, BUT THEN IT REFUSED TO SWITCH GEARS SAYING CHECK TRANSMISSION AND PARK SENSE AND TO PUT BACK IN PARK THEN SHIFT GEARS. AFTER THAT I HAD TO HAVE MY BATTERY CHARGED TO CRANK. THE NEXT DAY I HAD TO GET A BOOST. MY BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR TESTED GOOD, BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS NOW ON MENTIONING A THROTTLE SENSOR AND WATCHDOG PERFORMANCE. DEALERSHIP CLAIMS MY BATTERY IS BAD. I AGAIN TOLD THEM MY TRANSMISSION WASN'T SENSING CORRECRTLY AND SWITCHING GEARS CUTS MY CAR OFF SOMETIMES. THE TECHNICIAN SAYS I NEED TO PAY $428 TO HAVE THEM REPLACE MY "BAD" BATTERY FIRST.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WITHIN 1 MILE, MY CAR SHUT OFF TWICE WHILE COMING TO A STOP. THE SCREEN ON THE DASH SAID TO 'SHIFT TO P TO START'. I DID SO, AND THEN IT SOUNDED AS IF MY CAR DIDN'T WANT TO START BACK UP AND TOOK ME THREE TRIES THE FIRST TIME AND TWO THE SECOND TIME TO GET IT STARTED. NOW LOOKING INTO IT THESE CARS HAVE A HISTORY OF THIS SAME PROBLEM SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THEM BEING MADE, BUT NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT.

CAR STARTED MAKING AN AWFUL CLANKING NOISE WHEN TURNING. HAD THREE (3) DIFFERENT PLACES LOOK AT IT AND THEY ALL SAID IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION.

ENGINE
2013 CHRYSLER 200 3.6L V-6 80,000 MILES. DURING THE 2018 WINTER IN NOTICED MY CAR WAS NOT COMING UP TO RUNNING TEMPERATURE AND NO T GETTING GOOD HEAT OUT OF THE VENTS ON DRIVERS AND PASSENGER VENTS. I CHANGED THE THERMOSTAT AND NOTICED A LOT OF GRIT AND WHAT LOOKS LIKE DIRT IN THE ANTIFREEZE, BUT NOW THE CAR COMES UP TO RUNNING TEMPERATURE AND NOW I GET GOOD HEAT OUT OF DRIVER SIDE VENT BUT NOT OUT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE VENT. I HAVE BEEN DOING SOME READING ON CHRYSLER 200 FORUMS AND I SEE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME PROBLEMS I AM HAVING AND SAYING THE CAUSE IN IS THAT THE HEATER CORE IS PLUGGED AND IS ABOUT $900.00 TO $1200.00 TO FIX. IS CHRYSLER GOING TO COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIRS? THE CAUSE OF THE HEATER CORE BEING PLUGGED IS WHEN TO BLOCKS WERE BEING PORED AND MACHINED LEAVING SAND AND OTHER DEBRIS IN THE BLOCKS BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT CLEANED PROPERLY.

THIS VEHICLE HAS A SHUDDER AND A JERKING MOTION AT APPROXIMATELY THE 28 TO 35 MPH RANGE. ALSO SWITCHING THE GEARS FROM NEUTRAL TO DRIVE OR REVERSE WILL FREEZE. HAVE TO SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND TRY AGAIN. AS FAR AS THE SUSPENSION, THE LEFT REAR HAS MADE A SOUND ALMOST FROM THE BEGINNING WHEN VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED. IT MAKES A CLUNKING SOUND IF GOING OVER A BUMP, OR HIT A DEVIATION IN THE ROAD. WAS TOLD FOR THE LONGEST TIME COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN 1 SHOCK IS BAD.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON 6/23/19. 6/24/19 TOOK CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHICH THEY HAD UNTIL 07/12/19 STATING IS WAS THE KEY FOB AND PUSH START BUTTON. ONE WEEK IT RAN FINE THEN RAPIDLY BEGAN TO NOT START, CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON ALONG WITH TRANSMISSION LIGHTS. THE CAR HAS BEEN A LEMON SINCE DAY ONE. THE DEALERSHIP HAS SENT ME TO A THIRD PARTY MECHANIC AND ARE TELLING ME THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT COVERED UNDER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. THIS CAR HAD THESE PROBLEMS THE DAY AFTER I BOUGHT IT. IT WAS DEFECTIVE WHEN I PURCHASED IT AND NO ONE AT GAGE AUTO SALES WILL HELP ME. I AM 23 YEARS OLD TRYING TO MAKE IT ON MY OWN AND THERE IS NO WAY I CAN PAY 1500 TO RE-PROGRAM THE TRANSMISSION. PLEASE HELP ME!
