2014 CHRYSLER 200 Complaints

I WAS DRIVING ON THE THRUWAY IN UPSTATE NY, TWO DIFFERENT LIGHTS CAME ON AND A NOISE SOUND CAME ON ONE WAS A THERMOSTAT AND THE OTHER WAS AN H LOOKING LIGHT AND THEN MY VEHICLE SHUTDOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. A FEW WEEKS AGO I HAD WENT TO THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND THEY COMPLETED AN OIL CHANGE AND STATED THAT I NEEDED NEW TIRES. I'VE NEVER HAD IN ISSUES IN THE THREE YEARS I'VE BEEN FINANCING THIS VEHICLE. I'M STILL UNDER CONTRACT AND I'M NOT ABLE TO DRIVE VEHICLE. HAD IT TOWED TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATES IT WAS THE ENGINE WHICH WOULD RUN ME ABOUT $4800. AS AN MILITARY VETERAN I AM ON A SET INCOME AND I'M NOT ABLE TO AFFORD TO FIX THIS ISSUE. PLEASE HELP ME TO EXPLORE OPTIONS IF YOU ARE ABLE. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CW *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO FULLY ILLUMINATE THE ROADWAY AND HER VISION WAS LIMITED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CENTRAL MAIN MOTORS (420 KENNEDY MEMORIAL DR, WATERVILLE, ME 04901, 207-872-9211) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 87,300.

THE CAR HAS HEAT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE BUT DOES NOT HEAT OR DEFROST ON PASSENGER SIDE OF VEHICLE, THEREFORE CANNOT SEE OUT OF PASSENGER SIDE WINDSHIELD TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAY THAT THE HEATER CORE NEEDS REPLACED, $1500.00 LATER. I HAVE RESEARCHED ONLINE AND THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE CHRYSLER 200 VEHICLES. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY CHRYSLER IS THEREFORE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING THE HEATER CORES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHRYSLER 200. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING, THE HEADLAMPS FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HIGH AND LOW BEAM HEADLAMP BULBS HAD TO REPLACED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS DUE TO INSUFFICIENT ILLUMINATION WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO STATELINE CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (LOCATED AT 800 GOLD HILL RD, FORT MILL, SC 29708, (877) 679-4176) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO CELL DAMAGE.

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO LOSE POWER, THE ELECTRIC LIGHTNING BOLT WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED, AND THE VEHICLE LOST ACCELERATION.

I HAD RECAL DONE ON MY CAR AND MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS STILL ON. CODE WAS READ AND IT IS FOR A SHORT IN THE DRIVERS SEAT. RECALL NOTICE DOES STATE THIS ISSUE. MY CAR IS NOT FIXED

HEAT STOPPED WORKING WHICH CAUSES ME TO HAVE NO DEFROST THIS LEADS TO VISIBILITY ISSUES HAVE SEEN MANY ONLINE COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM.

TAKATA RECALL, HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES SINCE THE RECALL BACK IN 2016 AND KEEP GETTING TOLD THAT THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE AND THEN TOLD THAT THEY WERE AVAILABLE WHEN THEY ARE NOT, I HAVE TRIED MANY TIMES TO GET THIS FIXED BUT THE DEALERSHIP IS REFUSING TO FIX IT JUST BECAUSE I KEEP GETTING TOLD THAT THEY WOULD ORDER THE PART AND NOTHING GETS DONE. I AM STARTING TO GET AGGRAVATED AND CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF ME AND MY FAMILY WHILE DRIVING . I AM REGRETTING THAT I PURCHASED A CHRYSLER SND DON'T WANT TO PURCHASE ANOTHER ONE AGAIN. I USE TO THINK HIGHLY OF CHRYSLER AND THEIR PRODUCTS BUT DEALING WITH THIS AND CAUSING A MAJOR HEADACHE HAS CHANGED MIND TO NOT BUY AGAIN. JUST BECAUSE OF THE WAY THAT I HAVE BEEN TREATED, MY MOM HAS THE SAME RECALL ON HER FORD AND FORD IS PAYING FOR HER TO HAVE A RENTAL WHILE THEY WAIT FOR THE PARTS TO BE AVAILABLE FOR HERS TO BE FIXED. THAT TO ME TELLS HOW MUCH THEY CARE ABOUT THE SAFETY FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AROUND FOR 2 YEARS WITH THIS RECALL JUST FOR NOTHING TO BE DONE. IF I COULD TAKE THE CAR BACK AND BE ABLE TO GET ME DIFFERENT VEHICLE LIKE A FORD, CHEVY I WOULD. THIS HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE.
