2012 CHRYSLER 200 Complaints

WHILE DRIVING I STARTED TO COAST TO TAKE SHARP TURN AND ENGINE DIED, NO POWER STEERING AND NO BRAKES. COULDN'T TURN AND RAN OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE.

TO START OFF THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL WILL NOT STOP TURNING OFF AND ON EVEN AFTER REPLACING EVERYTHING . ALMOST ALL THE TIME WHEN IT RAINS THEY WILL KICK IN THE E BRAKE AND START GRINDING . NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I CHANGE THE BRAKES AND ROTORS AND MASTER CONTROL THEY NEVER STOP SQUEAKING . LASTLY ALMOST ALL THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS STARTED AFTER THE ALTERNATOR FAILED AND I HAD TO REPLACE IT . MY SPEEDOMETER JUST DIED ON ME TODAY AND I HAVE NO CLUE HOW THAT HAPPENED .

THE BATTERY LIGHT IN MY CAR CONTINUES TO COME ON EVEN AFTER HAVING THE BATTERY REPLACED AS WELL AS THE ALTERNATOR REPLACED. ALSO THE INTERNAL LIGHTS INSIDE OF MY CAR BEGAN TO BLINK LIKE CRAZY, AIR CONDITIONER WAS COMING ON/OFF, AND THE LIGHTS EVEN SHUT OFF AT ONE POINT ALMOST AS IF THE CAR COULDN'T CONTROL ITSELF. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT.

THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS CHANGED ON TUES., JULY 30, 2019 AS THE RESULT OF A RECALL NOTICE FROM CHRYSLER. WAS TOLD AFTER THE REPLACEMENT WAS DONE THAT I WOULD SMELL BURNING A LITTLE FOR ABOUT A WEEK UNTIL THE NEW CONVERTER WAS BROKEN IN. I DID SMELL THIS WHILE DRIVING. IT WAS DRIVEN THE FOLLOWING DAY FOR A TOTAL OF APPROX. 80 MILES. MY LUNGS WERE AFFECTED BADLY. BROUGHT IT BACK IN TO THE SHOP (CHRYSLER CERTIFIED) NEXT DAY, BUT NO PROBLEMS FOUND. DROVE IT ONE MORE DAY, BUT THE PAIN IN MY LUNGS INCREASED. SINCE THEN, HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE CAR. WAS DIAGNOSED BY A DOCTOR WITH ASTHMA AND PUT ON A STEROID INHALER. NEVER HAD LUNG PROBLEMS PREVIOUSLY. CHEST X-RAY AND PULMONARY TESTS NORMAL. CHRYSLER WANTS ME TO BRING IT TO ANOTHER CERTIFIED SHOP FOR REVIEW, BUT IT IS FAR AND WOULD REQUIRE TOWING. SINCE THEN HAVING A LOT OF PAIN IN MY LUNGS 3 WEEKS LATER. I BELIEVE IT IS BECAUSE OF THE NEW CATALYTIC CONVERTER.

HEAT PARTIALLY OPERATIONAL ONLY DRIVER SIDE.WHEN GOING UP TO 70 M/H ONLY COLD AIR COME OUT OF VENTS . A/C NOT WORKING NO LEAKAGE AFTER GARAGE INSPECTIONS .
