POWER TRAIN
WHEN DRIVING BETWEEN 30 AND 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHIFTS HARD BETWEEN GEARS. MOST RECENTLY ANOTHER PROBLEM OCCURRED L, WHILE PUSHING ON THE ACCELERATOR TO PASS OR ACCELERATE QUICKLY, THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT ENGAGE, LEAVING THE VEHICLE UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. THE ENGINE WILL REV AND THE TACHOMETER WILL INCREASE BUT THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE. IF THE DRIVER WAS TRYING TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY OF A VEHICLE COMING TWORDS THEM THEY WOULD BE HELPLESS AND THIS COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO ALL DRIVERS. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO AN APPROVED FCA MECHANIC, AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, OR THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED A REPROGRAMMING. I HAVE HAD THIS SERVICE DONE NOW 7 TIMES AND NO GUARANTEE THAT IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN.

VEHICLE SHIFTS TO NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING AND YOU HAVE TO PULL OVER AND SHIFT IT INTO PARK TO START GOING AGAIN. HAPPENS RANDOMLY, SOMETIMES THE DASH WILL SAY AWD SYSTEM NEEDS SERVIC. WEVE TAKEN IT INTO THE SHOP MULTIPLE TIMES WITH NO RESOLUTION. CONCERNED ABOUT DIVERS SAFETY! WE BOUGHT THIS CAR USED LAST YEAR (2018) AND HAVE STARTED HAVING TROUBLE ABOUT 2 WEEKS LATER. PRETTY SURE THE PREVIOUS OWNERS TRADED IT IN FOR THIS REASON.

HEAT ONLY COMES OUT ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. IT COMES OUT REALLY COLD IN THE PASSAGES. THE HEATER CORE WAS REPLACED LAST YEAR BE THE DEALER AND IT'S DOING IT AGAIN. I WAS SITTING A LIGHT AND WHEN IT TURNED GREEN I TRIED TO GO THAN IT WOULDN'T GO THAN IT JUMPED FORWARD AND IT WENT. I GOT A LITTLE DOWN THE ROAD THAN IT SLOWED DOWN AND IT WAS ALMOST LIKE DRIVING IN NEUTRAL WOULDN'T PICK UP SPEED AT ALL. IT STOPPED MOVING AGAIN THAN IT WOULDN'T GO AT ALL THE COPS HAD TO HELP ME PUSH IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

ON SATURDAY 29/9/2019 I WAS GETTING READY TO GO TO WORK FROM FREMONT, CA TO SAN JOSE, CA AND MY CAR WOULDN'T START. I HAD TO PRESS THE PUSH START SEVERAL TIMES TO GET IT TO START,. ONCE IT DID START WHEN I TURNED ON THE DEFROSTER IT STARTED SHAKING AND TURNED OFF. I HAD TO LET IT IDLE MORE THAN 15 MINUTES BEFORE IT WARMED UP. I MADE IT AROUND THE BLOCK ABOUT A QUARTER MILE BEFORE I CAME TO A STOP SIGN AND THE CAR SHUT OFF. I MANAGED TO TURN IT BACK ON AND PULL OVER. IT CONTINUED TO STALL UNTIL I GOT BACK HOME. SINCE THEN IT'S BEEN SHAKING WHEN ON IDLE AND IT JERKS BETWEEN GEARS. WHILE ON THE 880 FREEWAY THE CAR WILL DECELERATE DURING PEAK TRAFFIC HOURS CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO PULL OVER TO THE SLOW LANES TO AVOID GETTING REAR ENDED. I'M TAKING TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSTICS.

ENGINE
I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THE CAR AT SPEEDS OF BETWEEN 15MPL TO 70MPH ON COUNTRY ROADS, HIGHWAYS AND FREEWAYS WHEN THE ENGINE SIMPLY SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED 14 TIMES DURING THE LAST EIGHT MONTHS BETWEEN MAY 23, 2018, AND JANUARY 10, 2019, 1/10/19 BEING LAST TIME IT HAPPENED, ALTHOUGH IT HAS HAPPENED 14 TIMES AS INDICATED PREVIOUSLY INDICATED. IT WAS AS IF I HAD SIMPLY TURNED OFF THE IGNITION. I HAVE HAD THE CAR INTO A DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS TWICE AND NEITHER ME, THE DEALERSHIP TECHNICIAN NOR THE CHRYSLER AGENT THE TECHNICIAN CONTACTED HAS BEEN ABLE TO DETERMINE THE COMPONENT PART OR SYSTEM THAT COULD BE THE CAUSE OF THE ENGINE SHUTTING DOWN. ON JANUARY 10, 2019, I WAS TRAVELING ON A BUSY FREEWAY (BELTWAY 8) KN HOUSTON TX AND EXITED THE OFF RAMP ONTO 249 ((TOMBALL PARKWAY) WHEN THE ENGINE STALLED COASTING TO A STOP IN A MOVING LANE OF TRAFFIC WITH CARS, TRUCKS AND 18-WHEELERS PASSING ME AT 50-60MPS. I HAVE ATTACHED A DESCRIPTION OF EACH TIME THE ENGINE STALLED AND REPAIRS THAT WERE DONE AND THE WORK THAT WAS DONE ON THE CAR.

THE CAR STALLS ON MY WIFE EVERY DAY. SHE SITTING AT LIGHT OR SITTING IN TRAFFIC. YOU CAN BE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND WITHOUT WARNING IT CUTS OFF. I AM NOW THE ONLY CHRYSLER OWNER THAT IS HAVING THIS ISSUE. THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE A REALLY BAD ACCIDENT, OR MAYBE SOMEONE DIEING DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN CALLING SO SEE IF THERE IS A RECALL. I SAW SOMETHING ON GOOGLE AND SAID THERE IS A RECALL BUT WHEN I CALL THE DEALER SHIP THEY SAY THERE IS NO RECALL. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE FOR US TO GET A RECALL ON THE 2015 CHRYSLER 200'S ENGINE STALLING PROBLEM. THIS STARTED HAPPEN BACK IN OCTOBER 2016.

THE CAR HAS SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED LAST YEAR IN MARCH 2018. IT HAD ISSUES W/JERKING BETWEEN GEARS AND "HOPPING", BUT SEVERAL MONTHS AGO, JUST SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH ON A HIGHWAY (TWICE IN 15 MINS). DEALERSHIP ATTEMPTED TO FIX. BUT, ITS BACK TO SAME PROBLEM. IT SHUT OFF TUESDAY WHILE OUT OF TOWN AT A HOTEL WHILE PULLING OUT ONTO A 5 LANE ROAD. SUPPOSEDLY FIXED, AND THEN SHUT OFF ON INTERSTATE 695 AROUND BALTIMORE LAST NIGHT WHILE TWO LANES OF TRAFFIC OVER. SHUTTING OFF WITH -0- WARNING WHILE TRAVELING ON BUSY INTERSTATES IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND POSSIBLE LIFE THREATENING. PER RESEARCH, THIS SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE FOR THIS CAR, NOT SURE WHY NHTSA HAS NOT RECALLED IT YET.

THE PASSENGER SIDE HEATER AND DEFROSTER STOPPED WORKING. IT IS A KNOWN HEATER CORE ISSUE CAUSED BY FAULTY COOLANT CAUSING SLUDGE BUILD UP IN HEATER CORE. MECHANICS KNOW OF THIS, CHRYSLER KNOWS OF THIS. WITHOUT A FIX THE WINDOWS CAN STRUGGLE TO MAINTAIN VISIBILITY, AND MAINTAIN HEAT LEVELS. THE FIX IS TO REPLACE THE HEATER CORE AND/OR RADIATOR. WHICH CAN BE $1200-$1800, HERE IS A WEB LINK TO A MULTITUDE OF COMPLAINTS HTTP://M.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/CHRYSLER/200/2012/AC_HEATER/HEATER_DOESNT_WORK_PASSENGER_SIDE.SHTML

SINCE ABOUT 20,000 MILES MY CAR HAS SMELLED OF ANTI-FREEZE. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK IT IN, GENE'S CHRYSLER SAID MY CABIN AIR FILTER WAS FLOODED WITH COOLANT AND THAT MY RADIATOR WAS LEAKING AT THE SEAMS. THIS WAS CHANGED AT 36,000 (MARCH 2018) MILES. AFTER THEY REPLACED THE RADIATOR, I STILL SMELLED IT AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS "SPRAY" THAT WAS LEFT OVER FROM WHEN IT WAS ORIGINALLY BROKEN. AT 57,000 MILES (JAN 2019) I STILL SMELL IT. I HAD TO TAKE MY CAR BACK TO GENE'S FOR AN AMBIENT TEMP SENSOR AND THEY NOTICED MY RADIATOR IS LEAKING, AGAIN, AND REPLACED IT. NOW, KEEP IN MIND, I AM NOT LEAVING COOLANT PUDDLES ANYWHERE NOR IS MY TEMP SENSOR FOR THE COOLANT REPORTING ANYTHING THAN WHAT IS NORMAL. I AM AGAIN SMELLING ANTI-FREEZE.GENE'S AGAIN TELLS ME THAT IT'S JUST FROM THE SPRAY.
