2016 CHRYSLER 200 Complaints

VEHICLE IS STALLING, COMPLETELY SHUTTING OFF, LOSING POWER WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS DONE IT AS 20MPH, 45MPH, GOING STRAIGHT, TURNING LEFT, TURNING RIGHT. THERE IS NO NOTIFICATION THAT THIS IS HAPPENING. THE ONLY THING I CAN TELL IT'S HAPPENING IS IT LOOSES POWER, STEERING LOCKS UP AND THE CAR DASH SAYS "SHIFT TO P TO START VEHICLE". WHEN I DO THAT, THE CAR TAKES AT LEAST 30-456 SECONDS TO COMPLETELY START BACK UP AND RUNNING. IT ACTS LIKE IT DOES NOT WANT TO START BACK UP. I HAVE TRAVELLED COUNTY ROADS, CITY STREETS, HIGHWAYS AND IT HAS DONE IT ON EACH ONE OF THEM. THIS IS NOT OK AND SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE BLOWN OFF WITH NO RECALL. I HAVE 2 SMALL CHILDREN THAT IS 99.9% OF THE TIME IN THE CAR WITH ME. I CAN NOT HAVE THIS CONTINUE TO HAPPEN WITH NOTHING BEING DONE OR RESOLVED OF THIS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO 2 DIFFERENT CHRYSLER DEALERS AND THEY CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHAT IS GOING ON WITH IT BECAUSE THE CAR IS NOT THROWING ANY CODES WHEN IT HAPPENS. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, NOTHING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TWO CHRYSLER DEALERS WHOM PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTICS THAT WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE A FAILURE CODE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NEWARK CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM LOCATED ON 244 E CLEVELAND AVENUE NEWARK ,DE 19711 PHONE 302-731-0100 AND BRANDYWINE CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM LOCATED ON 3807 KIRKWOOD HIGHWAY WILMINGTON, DELAWARE 19808 PHONE 302- 998-2271. THE DEALERS REPLACED SEVERAL ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS HOWEVER; THE CONTACT DID NOT HAVE THE NAME OF THE PARTS THAT WERE REPLACED. THE FAILURE REOCCURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,464.

WE OWN A 2016 CHRYSLER 200 WITH A 4 CYLINDER ENGINE THAT IS BURNING ONE QUART OF OIL EVERY 750 MILES. WE ARE TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT CHRYSLER ENGINEERS SAY IT IS ACCEPTABLE FOR THAT ENGINE TO USE A QUART OF OIL IN 750 TO 1000 MILES. THE ENGINE HAS DONE THIS SINCE IT WAS NEW. THEY REPLACED FOULED SPARK PLUGS AND EVEN COMPLETE CYLINDERS ON THE CAR. THE LAST TIME MY WIFE WAITED UNTIL THE RECOMMENDED OIL CHANGE IT HAD USED 5 QUARTS. THE DEALER IS STILL GIVING US THE RUN AROUND AS IS MR STANDER AT CHRYSLER USA AND SERGIO MARCHIONI WHO CALLED THE DESIGNERS OF THE ENGINE 'DUMMIES'. RECALL THESE CARS NOW

AT 49,500 MILES MY 2016 CHRYSLER 200 "SERVICE AIR BAG" CAME UP ON THE PANEL. THE DEALER STATES THAT IT IS A PASSENGER SIDE HARNESS AND WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. IT IS NOT PART OF ANY RECALL AND NOT PART OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY PURCHASED. HOW DOES AN AIRBAG HARNESS FAIL IN 2 YEARS. SOUND MORE LIKE A DEFECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE VEHICLE PULLED TO THE RIGHT. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A TREE AND THEN LANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET, CAUSING THE AXLE TO DETACH. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO KENDALL DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP (13355 S W 137TH AVE, MIAMI, FL 33186, PHONE NUMBER: (786) 231-2000), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT AN INVESTIGATION WAS CONDUCTED AND DETERMINED THAT THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A TREE. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 19,000.

THE ENGINE IN OUR CHRYSLER 200 LOSES OIL AT AN ALARMING RATE. THE CAR EVENTUALLY STALLS AND WILL NOT RESTART. WE ARE TOLD EVERY TIME 'NO OIL SHOWS ON THE DIPSTICK. IT IS AGAIN IN THE SHOP HAVING BEEN TOWED THERE BECAUSE IT LOST SO MUCH OIL IT WOULD NOT START. THE DEALER IS DEFIANT BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT HAS REFUSED TO ACT AND RECALL THE 2016 FOR THE SAME REASONS THAT PROMPTED A RECALL OF THE 2015 CHRYSLER 200. IS IT GOING TO TAKE CONSUMER FATALITIES BEFORE THE NHSTA ACTS. TECALL THESE CARS NOW !

MY CAR CONTINUES TO STALL WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS, LOCKING EVERYTHING UP. I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK. PRESS THE STOP ENGINE BUTTON, PLACE MY FOOT IN THE BRAKE, PRESS THE START BUTTON,THE ENGINE WHINES, TRIES TO START, WINDS AGAIN THEN CHUGS A FEW TIMES. AFTER DOING THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN, THE CAR WILL EVENTUALLY START. JUST TO DO IT AGAIN. WHEN I BROUGHT MY CAR TO THE DEALER, THEY TOLD MY CAR WAS "ALMOST OUT OF OIL" AFTER WHICH THEY HAD DONE THE LAST OIL CHANGE CLAIMING TO HAVE USED SYNTHETIC OIL. IF THAT WAS THE CASE, HOW DOES A 2016 CAR BURN 4-5 QUARTS OF SYNTHETIC OIL AND THEM NOT BE ABLE TO TELL ME WHY. I SEE THE RECALL FOR 2015 200'S MATCHING EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY 2016.

CAR HAS SHUT DOWN AT LEAST 4 TO 5 TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS LUCKILY. THERE HAS BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS BY OTHER CHRYSLER 200 OWNERS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM BUT YET THERE HAS BEEN NO RESOLUTION.

ON HIGHWAY DOING ABOUT 70 MPH. LIGHT CAME ON SAYING POWER STEERING NOT WORKING. KEEPS GOING IN & OUT. HARD TO STEER WHEN LIGHT COMES ON. LIGHT GOES OUT & STEERING IS FINE. DOES THIS IN TOWN TOO.

THE GAS NEEDLE ON MY CAR IS STUCK OR JUST NOT WORKING. I CAN FILL THE TANK AND IT STILL SAYS IT'S ALMOST EMPTY AND IT SKIPS.
