2015 CHRYSLER 200 Complaints

CAR HAS STALLED OUT ON MULTIPLE RANDOM TIMES. FIRST HAPPENED TO MY BOYFRIEND WHEN HE WAS DRIVING IN TOWN, HE TOLD ME ABOUT IT AND I ASSUMED HE MAYBE DID SOMETHING TO CAUSE THE PROBLEM. THE SECOND TIME IT HAS HAPPENED WAS WHEN I WAS IN THE CAR AND MY BOYFRIEND WAS DRIVING IT AGAIN AND IT STALLED OUT AGAIN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION WITH NO TRAFFIC AROUND. SINCE THEN, IT HAS DONE IT THREE TIMES IN TOWN IN 25MPH SPEED LIMITS ZONES.AROUND THE SAME TIME THIS WAS HAPPENING, I HAD RECEIVED THE RECALL LETTER AND SET UP AN APPOINTMENT AND JUST HAD TO WAIT TILL THAT DAY. I NOTIFIED THE SHOP THE DAY OF MY APPOINTMENT AND TOLD THEM THE PROBLEM AND THEY ASSUMED THAT THE NEW RECALL FIX WOULD HOPEFULLY AND MAYBE FIX THE PROBLEM. SINCE THEN, IT HAS STALLED OUT FOUR TIMES, AND THREE OF THE TIMES HAPPENED IN THE SAME DAY. THE FIRST STALL OUT WAS IN TOWN AGAIN AND RIGHT AWAY I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP SHOP TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT AGAIN AND THERE SOONEST AVAILABILITY WAS ABOUT A MONTH AWAY SO I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THAT. IT WASN'T UNTIL THE NEXT DAY THAT IT HAPPENED 3 TIMES THROUGHOUT THE DAY AND 2 OF THOSE TIMES WERE WITHIN A 10 MINUTE WINDOW AND THIS TIME IT WAS ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH AT THE STALLING TIMES THAT THERE WAS LITTLE TO NO TRAFFIC AROUND ME IN TOWN AND ON THE HIGHWAY, WHERE I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE SAFELY, SHUT THE CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON. THE DEALERSHIP HAS THE CAR STILL, THEY HAVE DRIVEN IT THEMSELVES FOR A COUPLE DAYS AND IT DID NOT HAPPEN TO THEM ONCE AND THEY CANNOT FIND AN ISSUE SO THEY WERE FORCED TO GIVE ME MY CAR BACK. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS ISSUE IS THE STALLING PROBLEM HAPPENS AT RANDOM TIMES& IN DIFFERENT SPEED ZONE AREAS. VERY SCARY THOUGHT TO HAVE WHEN DRIVING ON THE ROAD WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC, TRUCKS, SEMI'S, ETC. BEHIND YOU AND NOT KNOWING IF YOUR CAR IS GOING TO STALL OR NOT THAT DAY OR VERY MUCH TO THAT MINUTE YOU ARE DRIVING.

IF I LET THIS CAR BACK ON THE ROAD SOME IS GOING TO GET KILLED IN IT. PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A FULLY LOADED CAR WITH A 9 SPEED TRANSMISSION. I THINK IF YOU INVESTIGATE THIS IS NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING PROBLEMS.

I WAS DRIVING AND MY DASHBOARD STARTED BLINKING TELLING ME I HAD TO PARK THE CAR. ONCE I PARKED FOR A LITTLE BIT I WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL BLINKING. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT HOME BEFORE IT SHUT OFF AGAIN AND I WILL HAVE IT TOWED TODAY. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME WITHIN THE LAST MONTH THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH THE CAR.

I WAS MERGING ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND MY DASHBOARD STARTED BLINKING TELLING ME I HAD TO PARK THE CAR. ONCE I PARKED IT I COULD NOT GET IT TO START AGAIN AND HAD IT TOWED TO CHRYSLER. THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT AND RESET THE PCM TO GET IT TO START AGAIN.

WHILE DRIVING WE EXPERIENCED THE VEHICLE HAD STOPPED AND WE WERE JUST COASTING FOR A FEW BLOCKS. THE ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING. SOME MESSAGES POPPED UP AND AFTERWARDS, WHEN WE TRIED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, IT WOULD NOT TURN ON. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. GOOD THING WE WERE NOT GOING FAST OR IN TRAFFIC OR I DON'T KNOW WHAT WOULD OF HAPPENED. WE TOWED THE VEHICLE, AGAIN, TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY TOO SAW THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TURNING ON. THE VEHICLE JUST MADE A NOISE LIKE IT WANTED TO TURN ON BUT JUST COULDN'T. EVERYTHING ELSE WAS WORKING, RADIO, WINDOWS, ETC.

2015 CHRYSLER 200. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AND OTHER MECHANICAL/ TECHNICAL ISSUES. *SMD THE CONSUMER EXPERIENCED TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE ENGINE LIGHT ON THE DASH ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE SHIFTED ROUGHLY, THERE WAS A FAULTY TRANSFER OF POWER, AND THE VEHICLE SURGED FORWARD UNEXPECTEDLY AND THE ENGINE REFUSED TO TURN OFF. THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THE TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE WAS ADJUSTED AND THE PROBLEM WAS SOLVED. HOWEVER, TWO DAYS LATER, THE ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AGAIN. THE CONSUMER RETURNED TO THE DEALER AND THE FOLLOWING DAY, HE WAS INFORMED THE VEHICLE NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE CONSUMER FOUR DAYS LATER WITH THE REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSION. HOWEVER, THE CONSUMER CONTINUED TO EXPERIENCE SIMILAR PROBLEMS BEFORE THE REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE SHIFTED ROUGHLY AND INTERMITTENTLY, WHILE CRUISING, AND WHEN LIGHTLY PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL, THE VEHICLE WOULD SEEMINGLY HESITATE ONLY TO ENGAGE AFTER A MOMENT OF UNCERTAINTY. *JB

CAR WILL RANDOMLY SHIFT FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING AND BECOME COMPLETELY UNRESPONSIVE. SOME TIMES IT ALLOWS YOU TO PULL OVER AND PUT INTO PARK THEN DRIVE, MOST TIMES THE ENTIRE CAR EXCEPT THE RADIO, BECOME UNRESPONSIVE AND HAVE TO PULL POSITIVE BATTERY TERMINAL TO RESET CAR. I'VE BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE 3 TIMES NOW WITH SAME ISSUE. EVERY TIME IS GETTING MORE AND MORE DANGEROUS AS PROBLEM IS NOT EASILY REPRODUCIBLE AND HAVE ALMOST BEEN STRUCK BY CARS FROM BEHIND OR ON SIDE OF ROAD.

THE CAR STALLED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. IT WOULD NOT RESTART. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY ADVISED ME IT STARTED RIGHT UP AND EVERYTHING LOOKED FINE. I PICKED IT UP FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND MADE IT ABOUT 4 MILES AND THE CAR STALLED AGAIN WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. I HAD THE CAR TOWED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. I AM NOW WAITING FOR THEIR REPAIR OF THE VEHICLE. BOTH TIMES THE CAR STALLED WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY CHILDREN WERE IN THE CAR WITH ME.

ENGINE STALL , WOULD NOT ALLOW TO SHIFT THE CAR GEARS. MY WIFE WAS SO SCARED AND FRUSTRATED AS WELL BECAUSE OF ONGOING TRAFFIC AND WITH OUR CHILDRENS IN THE CAR.

MY VEHICLE HAS ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS EXPERIENCED A JERK IN WHICH THE VEHICLE WILL ACCELERATE WITH AND FORCE FROM MYSELF. THE 9-SPEED TRANSMISSION WILL SHIFT AT SUCH A RAPID AND UNCOMFORTABLE SPEED THAT THE CAR JERKS AT EVER SHIFT. I WAS BRAKING FOR A STOPLIGHT LAST WEEK WHEN THE GEAR SHIFTED AND JERKED CAUSING ACCELERATION THAT ALMOST MADE ME REAR-END THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME ALREADY STOPPED. I HAVE ALREADY HAD MY TRANSMISSION REPLACED TWO WEEKS AFTER BUYING THE VEHICLE. THEY THEN REPLACED THE COMPUTER SYSTEM AND AM NOW STILL EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO UNTIL CHRYSLER RELEASES A RECALL THAT PROVIDES A COMPUTER UPDATE TO FIX THE ISSUE. I EMAILED CORPORATE BUT THEY REFUSE TO RESPOND TO ME AND NO ONE WILL PROVIDE ASSISTANCE ON THIS ISSUE. I HONESTLY JUST DON'T WANT TO KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF CHRYSLER'S' NEGLIGENCE.
