2015 CHRYSLER 200 Complaints

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE HAD MY CHRYSLER 2015 200 FOR 3 YEARS AND SINCE I'VE HAD MY CAR IT HAS ALWAYS HAD AN ISSUE WITH ACCELERATING ON ITS ON. IT ACCELERATES WHEN YOU TAP THE BREAKS AND IT WILL ACCELERATE ON ITS ON TAKING IT OFF CRUISE CONTROL AS WELL. SO LAST WEEK MY CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR WAS PUT ON CRUISE CONTROL GOING ABOUT 60-65 MPH THEN ONCE THE BRAKE WAS TAPPED TO SLOW DOWN THE CAR BEGAN TO LOCK UP AND ACCELERATE UP TO 90 MPH. THEN AFTER THE CAR PICKED UP SPEED THE WHOLE CAR LOCKED UP STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN OR ANYTHING AND THE CAR ENDED UP HITTING A WALL. THE STATE OF WHAT CAUSE THE ISSUE IS UNKNOWN, HOWEVER I THINK THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE TAKEN FURTHER FOR AN INVESTIGATION.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE STALLS AND SHUTS OFF, NO LIGHTS ON DASH. 5 DAYS LATER SAME STALL ISSUE NOW ENGINE LIGHT AND ELECTRICAL LIGHT ARE COMING ON TOO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO DECELERATE. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND POWERED OFF THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE SHOOK AND A LOUD TICKING NOISE OCCURRED UNDER THE HOOD. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND WAS LATER TAKEN TO AUTONATION CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM & FIAT NORTH PHOENIX (LOCATED AT 16406 N 26TH AVE, PHOENIX, AZ 85023) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT CYLINDER NUMBER SIX AND THE WIRE HARNESS FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED DUE TO THE REPAIR FEES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

VEHCILE HAS SEVERAL ERROR LIGHTS THAT COME AND GO. I CANNOT GET CHRYSLER DEALERS IN BREVARD, FLORIDA TO DO WARRANTY WORK. EVERYONE IS IN DANGER AS THE CAR IS NO LONGER SAFE. I HAVE BEGGED FOR TOW INS, RENTALS AND WARRANTY DIAGNOSES. I HAVE BEGGED FOR CHRYSLER TO SEND A TRAINED REP FROM OUT OF TOWN TO INVESTIGATE. THIS HAS GONE ON FOR YEARS, NOW THE BELOW DEALERSHIPS OWNS BOTH THE DEALERS IN MY REGION AND REFUSE TO DO WORK TO DIAGNOE PER WARRANTY AT EITHER. I HAD A FREE OIL CHANGE PACKAGE FROM CHRYSLER FROM A PREVIOUS SERVICE RELATED COMPLAINT. THE DEALER SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT, I GAVE THEM ALL MY INFO. I ALSO ORDERED AN EXPENSIVE PART TO HAVE INSTALLED, WHICH IS NONRETURNABLE. I PAID FOR AND PICKED UP PART. CHECKED MY CAR IN. THEN ROSS AND CRAIG, ALSO ED O'DONNELL I WAS TOLD WERE ALL TEXTED BY ROSS AND UPON CHECKING IN VEHICLE WAS TOLD "SORRY WE WILL NOT SERVICE YOUR VEHICLE OR INSTALL YOUR PART. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE AND I WAS ALSO TOLD BY ED O'DONNELL ON A PREVIOUS COMPLAINT THAT I WAS WELCOMED TO RETURN. DID I MENTION THE PACKAGE EXPIRED SHORTLY THERE AFTER. ALSO SHORTLY THERE AFTER LEAVING THE WORK THEY DID PREVIOUSLY, THE SYMPTOMS NOW RE PRESENT THEMSELVES. IRONICALLY. ALSO, IT WAS ADMITTED BY PHONE THAT THEY HAD BACKMOFFICE DISCUSSIONS WITH ANOTHER DEALER IN THE AREA GATOR CHRYSLER. I AM NOW STUCK WITH A PART THEY WILL NOT INSTALL OR REFUND. THEY WILL NOT CHANGE MY OIL OR ROTATE TIRES. THEY WILL NOT FESSMUP TO THE VANDALISM OF MY VEHICLE THAT OCCURRED ON THEIR LOT IN 2018. THEY HAVE DESTROYED MY CAR AND NOW ALL KINDS OF ENGINE LIGHTS COME ON TO DISCREDIT ME. HEAD THE WARNING, THE BELOW DEALER IS IN QUESTION :: BONIFACE-HIERS CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM 1775 E MERRITT CAUSEWAY MERRITT ISLAND, FL 32952 DRIVING DIRECTIONS SALES 1-321-452-8181 SERVICE 1-321-452-8181 PARTS 1-321-452-8181

AFTER USING CRUISE CONTROL THE IDIOT TELLS ME THE ELEC. THROTTLE NEEDS SERVICING. IN ADDITION, THE SERVICE AIRBAG SYSTEM LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. I HAD THE "SERVICE AIRBAG SYSTEM" WARNING CHECKED AT DEALERSHIP (09/2018) HOWEVER AFTER 5 MONTHS IT IS BACK ON.

WHILE MOBILE OR STATIONARY MY AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT IS ON. IT HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED NUMEROUS TIMES FOR THE SAME REASON. DUE TO A LOOSE CONNECTION UNDER MY PASSENGER SEAT. CHRYSLER HAS SERVICED IT NUMEROUS TIMES ALSO. THEY HAVE ORDER NEW PARTS, REPLACED WITH OTHER PARTS. THEY HAVE TRIED TO SEAT THE LOOSE CONNECTION IN WITH A ZIP TIE ALSO. ISSUE HAS LASTED SINCE FEBRUARY OF 2017

WHILE EXCELLERATING THE CAR WILL HESITATE. SOMETIMES THIS CAUSES THE CAR TO JERK VERY HARD, OTHER TIMES THE CAR ACTS LIKE ITS STUCK IN BETWEEN GEARS I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT A FEW TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS. WHEN I AM STOPPED AND GO TO TAKE OFF IT WILL ALMOST STOP AND THEM JUMP FORWARD REAL FAST. OTHER TIMES IT JUST JERKS A FEW TIMES AND TAKES OFF. WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT MY CAR IT SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL ON IT'S OWN A FEW TIMES. THIS STOPPED ONCE AN UPDATE WAS DONE. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT USED TO COME ON AND GO OFF. NOW IT STAYS ON. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO ADVANCE AUTO AND THE SCAN TOOL WILL NOT READ ANY CODES. THE RADIO, TOUCH SCREEN AND STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS WILL RANDOMLY STOP WORKING. I HAD AN ALERT POP UP SAYING THE ENGINE TEMP HOT AND SERVICE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL. THE CAR HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT A HEADACHE. MY BASIC WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

TAKATA RECALL. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IN THIS CAR HAS ME AFRAID THAT IF MIGHT CATCH A FIRER. THE DASHBOARD LIGHT BRIGHTEN UP AND DIMS DOWN AT TIMES. YOU PUSH ONE BUTTON AND IT GOES TO ANOTHER ON THE SCREEN. I CAN NOT ACCEPT THE YES TO CONNECT MY PHONE ON THE SCREEN, THE ENGINE IS STALLING WHEN IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY AND CITY STREETS.THIS CAR IS LEMON. I HAVE ONLY HAD IT FOR 1 YEAR AND 9MTHS. THERE WAS A COOLANT LEAKING AND EVERY TIME THEY CHANGE THE OIL IT WAS JUST REFILLED EVEN AFTER I BROUGHT IT TO THERE ATTENTION.THERE WAS A OIL LEAKING AROUND THE OIL HOUSING AND LEAKING TO AND OVER THE MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION. THE U CONNECT SCREEN FEATURES DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY AND CAN NOT UPDATE THE RADIO

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTING FLICKERED AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER FIFTEEN MINUTES. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHEN DRIVING BETWEEN 30 AND 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHIFTS HARD BETWEEN GEARS. MOST RECENTLY ANOTHER PROBLEM OCCURRED L, WHILE PUSHING ON THE ACCELERATOR TO PASS OR ACCELERATE QUICKLY, THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT ENGAGE, LEAVING THE VEHICLE UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. THE ENGINE WILL REV AND THE TACHOMETER WILL INCREASE BUT THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE. IF THE DRIVER WAS TRYING TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY OF A VEHICLE COMING TWORDS THEM THEY WOULD BE HELPLESS AND THIS COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO ALL DRIVERS. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO AN APPROVED FCA MECHANIC, AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, OR THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED A REPROGRAMMING. I HAVE HAD THIS SERVICE DONE NOW 7 TIMES AND NO GUARANTEE THAT IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN.
