2014 CHRYSLER 200 Complaints

I BOUGHT MY CAR IN MARCH 2014 WITH ONLY A FEW MILES ON IT. I HAD MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON MANY TIMES AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS MY GAS CAP. WELL AFTER A FEW MONTHS OF THIS I NOTICED THAT MY CAR WOULD LOSE POWER AND ALTHOUGH I WOULD PRESS THE ACCELERATOR MY CAR CONTINUED TO DECLINE IN SPEED. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME TO CALL AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TRIED TO EXPLAIN TO THEM THAT THIS HAPPENS AND IT WILL LAST A FEW MIN TO A FEW DAYS. I WAS TOLD WELL THAT?S ODD YOU DON'T HAVE ANY RECALLS OR ANY COMPLAINTS ON YOUR CAR. I EVEN ASKED THEM ABOUT A REPLACEMENT PART THAT I CAME ACROSS THAT WAS DONE TO MY ARE RIGHT BEFORE I BOUGHT IT AND THEY TOLD ME THEY HAVE NO RECORD. SURE IS FUNNY THEY DID THE REPLACEMENT ON IT. NEEDLESS TO SAY I HAVE HAD MY CAR OVER YEAR AND I CAN'T GET ANY ANSWERS ON THIS ISSUE. IT?S SUPER DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN I AM GOING OVER 50 MPG. .....UPDATED 09/22/15 *BF

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE THE HOOD SUDDENLY RELEASED WITHOUT WARNING STRIKING THE WINDSHIELD. THE ONLY DAMAGE TO THE CAR WAS THE HOOD. CAR WAS RENTED FROM ENTERPRISE.

THE BRAKES MAKE A LOT OF NOISE AS IF THEY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE OF WEAR BUT THE CAR WAS BRAND NEW. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY ALWAYS SAY THE SAME THING: ALL OF CHRYSLER'S 200 HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES. THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES. THIS IS TERRIBLE BECAUSE PEOPLE KNOW I'M COMING JUST BY THE NOISE.

AN ELECTRICAL FIRE SEVERELY DAMAGED MY VEHICLE. THE FIRE STARTED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN. AT THE TIME OF THE FIRE NO ACCESSORIES WERE PLUGGED IN TO THE 12V POWER PORT. TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE THE ONLY ACCESSORIES THAT WERE BEING USED AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT WERE THE A/C AND THE RADIO. THE FIRE WAS EXTINGUISHED BY A HOMEOWNER, BUT THE VEHICLE SUSTAINED HEAVY DAMAGE TO THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER BETWEEN THE FRONT SEATS. THE CAR IS STILL COVERED UNDER THE FULL MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY, BUT AT THIS POINT I AM BEING TOLD THAT THIS IS NOT CONSIDERED A WARRANTY ISSUE BECAUSE THEY CAN NOT PROVE THAT THE FIRE WASN'T STARTED BY A DEVICE PLUGGED INTO THE 12V POWER PORT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE DRIVING AT 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE JERKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE CONTACT WAS UNSURE ABOUT WHAT PART NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED WITHIN THE TRANSMISSION; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 14,900.

MY ROTORS ARE BAD THEY MESSED MY BRAKES UP I'VE TOOK IT TO THE COMPANY 4 TIMES THERE STILL MESSED UP MY ENGINE WAS LEAKING OIL MY RPM GET STUCK AN MY CAR DOESN'T LIKE TO SWITCH GEARS WHEN I'M DRIVE IT I'VE TOOK IT TO THE COMPANY THEY SAID IT WAS OK THEY ALL DO IT. *TR

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS I HAVE NOTICED THE HOOD PARTIALLY UP AFTER PARKING THE CAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN THE PAST TWO WEEKS AND I HAVE NOT LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD DURING THAT TIME. I SUSPECT THAT THE HOOD LATCH MAY BE FAULTY.

THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR WAS OVERHEATING THE CAR WAS ROLLING BACKWARDS WHEN AT STOP LIGHT . PROBLEM WAS HEAT SENSOR. TRANSMISSION WENT TWICE ON 3/10/2015 AND 3/19/2014 BOTH TIMES I WAS DRIVING WITH MY GRANDDAUGHTER IN THE CAR AND DUE TO THE DECELERATION CAUSED BY THE TRANSMISSION I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BY TRUCK BEHIND ME. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. ON ONE OCCASION, WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY ACCELERATED TO 100 MPH. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS APPLIED NUMEROUS TIMES AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS ENGAGED IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES WHERE IT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING NORMAL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,783.
