THE ENGINE HAS LOCKED UP THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS ALL WITHIN JULY-AUGUST OF 2015. YOU GET NO WARNING AS TO WHEN THE MOTOR WILL LOCK UP. CHRYSLER IS NOT COMPASIONATE WHAT SO EVER. THERE ARE 2 MORE RECALLS ON MY CAR ONE OF WHICH HAS NO AVAILABLE PARTS. ITS A HIGH RISK SAFETY CONCERN. THE FRONT RIGHT AXLE SOUNDS LIKE ITS GOING TO FALL OFF. I DONT FEEL SAFE AT ALL DRIVING THIS CAR. ITS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR ME ASWELL AS OTHER DRIVERS. I ASKED FOR THEM IF MY CAR QUALIFIED I WAS TOLD YES BUT NEVER RECEIVED THE EMAIL AND SO I ASKED AGAIN NOW THEY SAY NO. THE 2015 CHRYSLER 200 IS A LEMON THAT SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE HIGHWAY!!!

I HAVE BROUGHT MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP REPAIR SHOP 18 TIMES ABOUT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH MY TRANSMISSION. I HAVE ALL PAPERWORK TO BACK IT UP THAT THESE TECHNICIANS AND CHRYSLER'S STAR KEEP TELLING ME THAT EITHER THEY DON'T HEAR ANYTHING OR NO IT'S NORMAL. WELL TODAY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE SCREEN SAID SERVICE TRANSMISSION. BUT THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH IT I THOUGHT. TO MAKE MATTERS MORE UPSETTING TO ME ON WEDNESDAY THE 23RD OF SEPTEMBER I GOT A CALL FROM THE DEALERSHIP IF THE TECH CAN TAKE IT HOME OVERNIGHT 9 MILES AWAY TO SEE IF WHAT I FEEL OR HEAR (HESITATION, RATTLING, AND JERKING) IS TRUE. NORMAL YET AGAIN! BY THE WAY THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS STILL ON WAITING FOR THEM TO CALL BECAUSE THEY ARE WAITING TO GET A NEW WIRING HARNESS TO FIX THE ISSUE. THE AIRBAG PART HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 7 TIMES GOING ON 8 AND HAS BEEN REPAIRED THAT MANY TIMES. OH AND THE AIRBAG A SO CALLED SAFETY ISSUE ISN'T REALLY A SAFETY ISSUE ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP AND CHRYSLER. THEY SENT ME HOME WITH IT. THE SAME TECH THAT SAID THE CAR TRANNY IS NORMAL. I HAVE CHILDREN AND YET THEY KEEP TELLING ME THE 2015 CHRYSLER 200 IS SUPPOSE TO BE THIS WAY. SOMEONE EVEN HAD THE NERVE TO GUARANTEE ME THAT IF I'M INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT IT WILL DEPLOY. CHRYSLER AND THE TECHS THAT GO THROUGH ALL THIS TRAINING STILL CAN NOT FIX A CAR WITH ISSUES. EVEN WITH MY CAR HAVING STAYED OVER THE 30 DAY MARK WITH THE SAME ISSUES THAT CAN NOT BE RESOLVED CHRYSLER WILL NOT BUY BACK MY CAR. PLEASE SOMEONE LOOK INTO IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. AFTER RESTARTING, THE VEHICLE RESUMED NORMALLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED FIVE TIMES. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION, WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, A SIMILAR FAILURE OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR ONE WEEK WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED, BUT THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE OR DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V470000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THE PART NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT BECOME AVAILABLE UNTIL SIXTY TO NINETY DAYS. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,000.

CAR WAS RUNNING BEAUTIFULLY ON SEPTEMBER 22ND. IT WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE OVERNIGHT. WHEN I STARTED IT THE MORNING OF THE 23RD, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED AND THE CAR WAS IDLING VERY ROUGHLY. I DROVE SLOWLY TO THE DEALER, DOUG SMITH CHRYSLER IN AMERICAN FORK, UT. THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS BEING A CART AND HORSE CONCERN: APPARENTLY THE COIL ON THE #6 CYLINDER HAD FAILED AND ALSO THE COIL DRIVER IN THE PCM HAD ALSO FAILED. THEY DON'T KNOW WHICH OCCURRED FIRST AND THEN LIKELY CAUSED THE OTHER PROBLEM. MY CONCERN IS THAT THE CAR WAS NEARLY UNDRIVEABLE AS IT WAS; WHAT IF THE PCM HAD SUFFERED A CASCADING DAMAGE OF SOME SORT? ESPECIALLY, WHAT IF THIS HAD HAPPENED WHILE I WAS TRAVELING 70MPH ON THE FREEWAY? I JUST THINK THAT A COMPONENT OF SUCH IMPORTANCE AS THE PCM SHOULD NOT FAIL AFTER ONLY 11000 MILES. I NOW HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT THE REPLACEMENT: WILL IT BE BRAND NEW OR REBUILT? IF REBUILT, HOW RELIABLE WILL THAT END UP BEING? I ALSO FEEL THAT A SPARK PLUG COIL SHOULD BE MORE ROBUST THAN TO FAIL AT ONLY 11000 MILES. I BELIEVE THIS FAILURE COULD REPRESENT A SEVERE DANGER TO MYSELF AND POSSIBLY TO OTHERS IF IT HAPPENED WHILE THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT WAS GOING ON AND OFF THROUGHOUT THE DAY. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY DIDN'T FIND ANY CODES BUT THE LIGHT WAS OFF. I WENT DOWN THE ROAD AND IT TURNED BACK ON SO I WENT BACK. THEY FOUND THE SAME CODE THAT'S BEEN GIVING ME ISSUES REGARDING THE PASSENGER SEAT. 7 TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUE. I HAD BROUGHT MY CAR BACK AND FORTH SINCE MARCH 2015 FOR THE TRANNY ISSUE. IT JERKS, HESITATES, AND RATTLES. ON A SERIOUS NOTE MY NECK HURTS CAUSE IT CAUSES ME TO JERK FORWARD. ALL CHRYSLER KEEPS DOING IS REPROGRAMMING MY COMPUTER ON THE TRANNY BUT IT DOESN'T WORK. I HAVE OVER 17 WORK ORDERS, OVER 30 DAYS OF STAYING IN THE SHOP, AND ALL THEY DO IS REPROGRAM IT PER CHRYSLER STAR ORDERS. RECENTLY I WENT TO REVERSE THE VEHICLE AND IT SHOT FORWARD THEN KNOCKED INTO REVERSE. THE BUYBACK PROGRAM IS A LIE. PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE THE CHRYSLER 200. IT'S JUST A HEADACHE AND A WASTE OF MONEY.
