FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I TOOK MY 2016 CHRYSLER AND IT HAD 66,000 MILES AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE OIL COOLER WAS OUT AND IT WAS A KNOWN REPAIR TO THE VEHICLE AND I'VE BEEN SMELLING LIKE OIL BURNING THROUGH THE AIR VENTS ON THE CAR AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULDN'T COVER IT BUT I ASKED HIM I SAID WELL YOU SAY YOU REPAIR THESE AND IT'S UNKNOWN PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS THAT THE OIL COOLER FAILS AND IT LEAKS IN THE VALLEY PAN UNDERNEATH THE ENGINE SO YOU MAY NOT SEE THE LEAGUE FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD AND YOU MAY NOT KNOW IT'S EVEN LEAKING UNTIL IT BUILDS UP SO HEAVY UNDERNEATH THAT VALLEY P.M. UNDER THE ENGINE AND YOU MAY BE COMPLETELY OUT OF OIL IN THE CAR RUNNING WITHOUT OIL GETTING BAD GAS MILEAGE MY CAR IS A 2016 CHRYSLER 200 S V6 3.6

ENGINE
MY 2017 CHRYSLER 200, THAT I PURCHASED ON OCTOBER 8, 2018 HAS STARTED TO JUST SHUT DOWN WHILE I'M DRIVING, WITH NO WARNING. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY IN THE TYPE OF BUSY TRAFFIC THAT I DRIVE IN, DAILY. I'M THANKFUL THAT THE TIMES IT DID SHUT OFF, IT HAPPENED IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD, WHILE I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO STOP AT A STOP SIGN, AND BEFORE I'D GOTTEN INTO HEAVY TRAFFIC. IT SHUT DOWN ON DECEMBER 20, 2019 AT A STOP SIGN, AND THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN ON DECEMBER 22, 2019. BOTH TIMES, IT DIDN'T RESTART IMMEDIATELY WHEN I PRESSED THE START BUTTON. IT STALLED FOR A MOMENT THE FIRST TIME, AND PERHAPS 2 MINUTES THE SECOND TIME. I TURNED ON MY EMERGENCY BLANKERS THE 2ND TIME IT HAPPENED, AND I LET OTHER DRIVERS KNOW TO GO AROUND ME BECAUSE IT TOOK A LITTLE LONGER TO RESTART. THIS ISN'T SAFE, NOR IS IT GOOD FOR ME AS A CONSUMER. THAT'S WHY I BOUGHT AN ALMOST NEW CAR SO I WOULDN'T HAVE ISSUES SUCH AS THIS WHILE DRIVING.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
I PURCHASED THIS CAR BRAND NEW AND I'VE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM TO THE CURRENT DATE. THE CAR ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS A SOFTWARE PROBLEM AND THEY UPDATED THE SOFTWARE. THE CAR WORKED FINE FOR A WHILE AND THEN STARTED TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I TOOK THE CAR BACK AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID THERE WAS NO PROBLEM FOUND WITH THE CAR. NOW THE CAR IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND I'M STUCK WITH THIS PROBLEM AND A PAYMENT FOR THIS DEATH TRAP. THIS PAST WEEK THE CAR HAS STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES. IT WILL SHUT OFF AND THE "D" LIGHT WILL BLINK. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, SHUT IT OFF, AND THEN TRY TO RESTART. IT STRUGGLES TO RESTART, AND THEN WILL FINALLY START. THIS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN AND LEFT MY FAMILY AND I COASTING IN FRONT OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HAVE MADE A RIGHT HAND TURN AND THE CAR ENGINE SHUT OFF CAUSING THE CAR BEHIND ME TO SLA. ON BRAKES AND DRIVE UP ON THE SIDEWALK. THIS ISSUE IS VERY DANGEROUS. MY CAR IS NOT LISTED UNDER A RECALL, BUT IT IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AS CHRYSLER 200'S THAT ARE BEING RECALLED. TRADING THIS CAR WILL ONLY SET UP ANOTHER BUYER BECAUSE THIS ISSUE IS NOT DETECTABLE. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ANY OTHER CAUTION LIGHT COMES ON.

ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING MY CAR THE ENGINE HAD COMPLETELY SHUT OFF STOPPING ME IN TRAFFIC. ONCE I WAS TRYING TO MAKE A TURN, TWICE I WAS STUCK IN A BUSY INTERSECTION, I TURNED ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS EACH TIME. EVERYTIME THE LIGHTS FOR THE GEARS WAS FLASHING BACK N FORTH BETWEEN THE GEARS.. I TURNED THE CAR OFF WAITED AWHILE, EVERY-TIME I BECAME A SITTING DUCK. I'M AFRAID I'M GOING TO BE KILLED IN THIS CAR. HOPEFULLY THIS CAR IS A RECALL. BELOW I LISTED THE MOST RECENT DATE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
WHEN STOPPED OR SLOWING DOWN FROM BARNES ROAD THAT CROSSES POWERS ONE OF THE BUSY ROADS IN COLORADO SPRINGS, THE CAR SHOOTS FORWARD REAL FAST ALMOST SHOOTING ME INTO ON COMING TRAFFIC. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES NOW, BUT MY FOOT IS ON THE BREAK.. THEN WHEN YOU LET YOUR FOOT OFF THE BREAK IT WONT MOVE LIKE IT HAS SLIPPED OUT OF GEAR, I PUSH THE GAS PEDAL A COUPLE OF TIMES AND THEN IT GOES INTO GEAR. AT TIMES WHEN YOU PUT IT IN REVERSE ALL OF A SUDDEN THE E BREAK ENGAGES AND IT JOLTS YOU TO A DEAD STOP,I HAVE TO PUSH THE BUTTON A COUPLE OF TIMES FOR IT TO RELEASE. I'M STARTING TO WISH I NEVER BOUGHT THIS CAR,

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
VEHICLE WENT IN FOR AN AIRBAG LIGHT TWICE RIGHT BEFORE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 75K MILES. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS TO HAVE REPLACED A WIRING HARNESS UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT BOTH TIMES. JUST SLIGHTLY OVER 75K MILES, THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. THIS TIME THEY ADVISED THE WHOLE WIRING SYSTEM NEEDS REPLACED AND THAT IT WON'T BE COVERED. GOT IN TOUCH WITH CHRYSLER DIRECTLY WHO STATED THEY ARE WILLING TO ONLY PAY FOR THE $1200+ PART BUT THAT I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR APPROXIMATELY $400 IN LABOR. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION EACH TIME THE LIGHT CAME ON. TYPICALLY WHEN ENCOUNTERING A SLIGHT BUMP ON THE INTERSTATE. SAFFORD JEEP CHRYSLER RAM IN WINCHESTER VA IS THE DEALERSHIP THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW AND CONTINUED SERVICE AT THE SAME LOCATION. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN FOR 2 WEEKS NOW AND CURRENTLY THERE AT THIS TIME. ACCORDING TO A BRIEF INTERNET SEARCH, THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON COMPLAINT YET NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED. IF THIS CAN BE SETTLED IN ANY MANNER, I RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT CHRYSLER PROVIDE A REFUND FOR WHAT I'M ABOUT TO PAY TO GET MY VEHICLE BACK UP AND RUNNING.

MY TRANSMISSION JERKS VERY BAD IN BETWEEN EVERY GEAR. ONE MORING I WAS DRIVING OUT OF MY HOUSE AND I HEARD A LOUD POP FROM UNDER THE CAR AND SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING I SEE EVERY OTHER 200 IS ON THE RECALL FOR THE TRANSMISSION BUT THIS ONE I REALLY WISH SOMEONE WOULD LOOK IN TO IT . THE DEALER SAID IT'S NORMAL FOR THE CAR TO SHAKE AND JERK I WORK ON CARS THAT'S NOT TRUE.

AIR BAGS
FOR ABOUT 30K MILES NOW MY SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON. CHRYSLER WANTS TO CHARGE $100 TO LOOK AT IT AND THEN CHARGE MUCH, MUCH MORE TO "FIX" THE AIRBAGS. WHY ARE AIRBAGS THAT HAVE NEVER BEEN DEPLOYED NOT ALWAYS COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY? I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY A THIRD PARTY TECH THAT THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY WITH THIS LIGHT ON. THIS PROBLEM IS WIDELY KNOWN AND CHRYSLER SEEMS TO THINK OUR SAFETY IS NOT WORTH COVERING THIS ISSUE.

SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE, STEERING
AS I AM DRIVING THE PARKWAY GOING ABOUT 60 MPH MY CAR WITH OUT ANY WARNING STARTED WITH FLASHING RED ON THE DASHBOARD. THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE STARTED GOING FROM HOT TO COLD AND THE ENGINE SYMBOL FLASHED ON DASH BOARD. I WAS IN THE LEFT HAND LANE WITH A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC PASSING ME. WITHIN 2-3 MINUTES AS I STARTED TO GO DOWN HILL THE DASH FLASHED STEERING WILL BE DISABLED, THEN AUTOBRADING WITH BE DISABLED. THE RADIO AT THIS POINT SHUT OFF AND IT WAS DIFFICULT TO STEER THE CAR. THERE WAS LITTLE ACCELERATION WHEN I TRIED TO GIVE IT GAS TO KEEP WITH THE PACE OF THE OTHER VEHICLES ATTEMPTING TO MOVE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I PUT MY HAZARDOUS FLASHERS ON BUT BECAUSE I DID NOT HAVE A DASH BOARD SCREEN I WAS SURE THEY WERE WORKING EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL SEEMED TO BE OFF. I FINALLY MADE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND THE CAR WENT ABOUT 3 FEET AND STOPPED. I WAS NOT ABLE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK ONCE I GOT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. IT WAS DIFFICULT FOR THE TOW COMPANY TO PULL THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE WHEELS WERE LOCKED AND THEY HAD TO USE SPECIAL EQUIPMENT.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, STEERING
AFTER A FEW MONTHS OF HAVING DTC COME UP FOR EVAP AND MISFIRE THEN DISAPPEAR JUST A QUICK AS IT CAME UP, MY VEHICLE HAS RECENTLY BEGAN STALLING OUT WHILE DRIVING, SPECIFICALLY WHILE DECELERATING OR IDLING. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED 2 YEARS AGO AND TESTS GOOD EVERY TIME, AS DOES THE ALTERNATOR, STARTER, WIRES, CONNECTORS AND SENSORS. NOBODY CAN FIND ANY DTC ON THE OBDII OR ANYTHING ELSE. IT'S EASY TO REPLICATE BUT IMPOSSIBLE TO DECIDE WHY. I'VE TALKED TO THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT POSSIBLE RECALLS FROM 2012 CONCERNING THE PCM AS WELL AS CHATTED WITH A FEW PEOPLE ON THE CHRYSLER WEBSITE AND NOBODY WANTS TO HELP. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION, AS I CAN PROVE WITH VIDEO FROM MY DASH CAM AND BACK UP CAM. THE PEOPLE ON THE CHRYSLER WEBSITE WERE VERY RUDE, AND THE DEALERSHIP WAS NOT WILLING TO STAND BEHIND THE PRODUCT EITHER WITHOUT CHARGING $300 JUST TO DIAGNOSE. IT'S SAYS RIGHT ON THE WEBSITE "WHAT IS A SAFETY RECALL? SAFETY RECALLS INCLUDE ANY PROBLEM ENCOUNTERED WITH AN FCA US PRODUCT RELATED TO THE SAFE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE OR THE SAFETY OF THE OCCUPANTS. FCA US LLC WILL CORRECT THE PROBLEM, AT NO CHARGE, EVEN IF THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND YOU ARE NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER." AS WELL AS "RECALL FAQS FCA US REGARDS THE SAFETY AND SECURITY OF OUR CUSTOMERS AND THEIR FAMILIES AS PARAMOUNT. PLEASE SEE OUR LIST OF FAQS BELOW TO LEARN MORE ABOUT RECALLS AND THE PRECAUTIONS WE TAKE TO KEEP YOU SAFE. IF YOU DON'T SEE YOUR CONCERN LISTED,CHAT WITH USAND ONE OF OUR REPRESENTATIVES WILL HELP ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE." THE RECALL I REFER TO IS THE TECH BULLETIN 18-102-16A WITH THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS "-2-

OVER THE LAST 3-4 DAYS MY 2015 CHRYSLER 200 HAS BEEN VERY UNPREDICTABLE, LEAVING MY SELF AND MY FAMILY AFRAID AND UNABLE TO DRIVE IT. SEVERAL TIMES, WHILE IN MOTION ON A MAIN HIGHWAY AND ON A A CITY STREET (X3) MY VEHICLE HAS COMPLETELY JOLTED ME TO A STOP, EITHER SHUTTING DOWN OR SAYING I WAS IN P INSTEAD OF DRIVE. OBVIOUSLY, I HAD STARTED AND SHIFTED TO DRIVE TO GET FROM POINT A TO MY "SHUT DOWN" LOCATION, WHICH LEAVES ME CONFUSED ON WHY IT WOULD SAY I WAS IN PARK ALL OF THE SUDDEN. NO, MY EMERGENCY BREAK WAS NOT ON. ALSO, IT ALSO SEEMS AS IF IT WAS TRY STICKING IN EITHER D3 OR D4 GEARS RANDOMLY FROM TIME TO TIME OVER THE LAST WEEK. I WAS HELPED BY 3 OFFICERS TO GET MY VEHICLE PUSHED AND MOVED BACK TO MY RESIDENCE. THIS LAST INCIDENT OCCURRED WHILE TRYING TO BREAK AT A STOP LIGHT. I AM UNSURE OF THE COMPONENTS CAUSING THESE PROBLEMS SO I AM LISTING THEM AS UNKNOWN. I HAVE REVIEWED 8 RECALLS PERTAINING 2015 CHRYSLER 200S BUT AM UNSURE OF A RECALL NUMBER I WOULD LIST.
