POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS I HAVE BEEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND MY CAR SHIFTS VERY HARD AND HAS MADE GRINDING NOISES. NOT ONLY THAT BUT EVER SINCE I HAVE BOUGHT IT, IT SHIFTS LIKE A RUBBER BAND BEING PULLED BACK AND MAKES YOU LUNGE FORWARD. I BELIEVE I HAVE TAKEN IT IN 3 TIMES NOW AND WITH NO RESOLUTION. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK IT IN THEY HAD A SERVICE REP RIDE WITH ME TO SEE WHAT I WAS FEELING. HE PERSONALLY SAID THAT IT WASN'T SHIFTING CORRECTLY AND SO THEY KEPT IT. WHEN I PICKED IT UP THEY INFORMED ME THEY DID NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT BUT RE-PROGRAMMED IT. AS I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP IT SHIFTED WORSE THAN BEFORE. I THEN CALLED AND COMPLAINED AND THEY SAID IT WAS NORMAL, ON MY WAY BACK HOME IT WAS CONSISTENTLY SHIFTING ROUGH. I FINALLY JUST PULLED OVER SHUT THE CAR OFF AND STARTED IT UP AGAIN. AFTER DOING SO IT SHIFTED SMOOTHER BUT WORSE THAN IT DID BEFORE. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT A SPEED OF 70 MPH SET ON CRUISE WHEN I TRIED TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL FUNCTION AND IT WOULD NOT DISENGAGE! I WAS GOING FROM A HIGHWAY TO A SPEED LIMIT CHANGE AND COULD NOT GET IT. LUCKILY I HAVE READ ABOUT THIS HAPPENING AND SHIFTED IT INTO NEUTRAL AND I WAS ABLE TO DISENGAGE IT AFTER THAT.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON PERMANENTLY. IT USED TO COME ON INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE HAD THE PROBLEM FIXED TWICE BY A CHRYSLER REPAIR FACILITY. I WAS TOLD NOT TO WORRY IT'S JUST A WIRING HARNESS PROBLEM. I'M SCARED BECAUSE I'VE SEEN AIRBAG RECALLS AND I DON'T KNOW WHY MY CAR HASN'T BEEN RECALLED YET. MY CAR ALSO SEEMS TO BE JERKING MORE FREQUENTLY. IT JERKS SOMETIMES WHEN I'M ACCELERATING. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS NORMAL BECAUSE OF THE TYPE OF ENGINE. I INQUIRED ABOUT THIS NOT LONG AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2015. THE JERKING SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON. I CAN PROVIDE INFO THAT MY AIRBAG SENSOR PROBLEM WAS FIXED TWICE.

TAMARA RECALL I HAVE A 200S MODEL PURCHASED BRAND NEW. I FIRST STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH THE CAR MAYBE 20,000K MILES IN. WHEN THE CAR IS SITTING IN PARK THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS AND AUTOMATICALLY GOES INTO NEUTRAL, THEN FORCES THE CAR TO BE SET IN PARK. AT THIS POINT THE CAR CANNOT BE MOVED AND JUST SHOWS THE CHECK TRANSMISSION LIGHT. THIS PARTICULAR INCIDENT HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES. ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS THE CAR HAS LOST POWER WHILE IN MOTION, THE CAR ALSO STRUGGLES TO GO INTO THE NEXT GEAR ALMOST DAILY. I HAVE BEEN TO THE SAME CHRYSLER THAT I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM NUMEROUS TIMES. THE FIRST TIME MY COMPUTER NEEDED TO BE UPDATED, THE SECOND TIME IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION MODULE, 3-5 IT WAS AN UPDATE NOW I'M BACK TO THE MODULE ACTING UP. THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT JUST CAME ON AGAIN YESTERDAY, I WAKE UP TODAY AND THE LIGHT IS GONE AND OF COURSE CHRYSLER TELLS ME THE CAN'T DO ANYTHING WITHOUT A CODE BEING PRESENT. I'VE LOST SO MANY DAYS OF WORK WITH THIS CAR IT'S RIDICULOUS, AND SINCE THE CAR HOLDS NO VALUE I'M STUCK WITH NEGATIVE EQUITY!!! PLEASE HELP

I ALMOST HAD TWO ACCIDENTS WITH THIS ISSUE. AND THE DEALERSHIP KEEPS TELLING ME THAT RECALL WAS FIXED BUT I DONT BELIEVE IT WAS. MY CAR KEEPS TRYING TO SPEED UP WITH ME JUST EVEN PULLING OFF FROM A PARKING SPOT. ITS A CHRYSLER 200 S 2015 . I THINK THIS CAR IS HORRIBLE AND I AM STUCK WITH THIS LEMON

TAKATA RECALL, MY CHRYSLER 200 2015 IS HAVING ISSUES WHERE IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S STUCK IN NEUTRAL AND DOESN'T WANT TO ACCELERATE. MY CAR STARTED RUMBLING PRETTY INTENSELY I DON'T EVEN HAVE 80,000 MILES ON MY CAR AND IT SAYS MY VIN NUMBER DOESN'T MATCH ANY RECALLS BUT EVERYTHING I'VE LOOKED UP IT SOUNDS THE SAME RECALL THE OTHER CHRYSLER 200 2015 CARS HAD AS WELL. HOW DO I GO ABOUT GETTING THIS FIXED?? I WAS ON THE FREEWAY AND IT HAPPENED RANDOMLY WHEN I WENT TO SWITCH LANES.
