2015 CHRYSLER 200 Complaints

WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN AT 5-10 MPH, THE LOWER CONTROL ARM SUSPENSION BROKE FOLDING SIDEWAYS AND CAUSING THE CAR TO BE PULLER LEFT INTO A PARKED CAR WAITING TO MAKE A TURN. FORTUNATELY IT BROKE AT A VERY LOW RATE OF SPEED. THE CAR HAD JUST EXITED A 60 MPH HIGHWAY. THE BODY SHOP STATED THAT CHRYSLER MUST HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THE WEAKNESS SINCE THE REPLACEMENT PART IT SIGNIFICANTLY HEAVIER BUILT (SEE PHOTO).

CYLINDER HEAD FAILURE, NEEDED CYLINDER, VALVE, AND GASKET REPLACED. THE CAR STARTED RUNNING POOR, MISFIRE, ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I REPLACED SPARK PLUGS AND COIL HOPING THAT WOULD FIX THE ISSUE. STILL, MISFIRE WENT TO DEALER HAD WORK DONE. THIS IS A WELL KNOW ISSUE WITH PENTASTAR THEY NEED TO BE ACCOUNTABLE.

RANDOMLY IF I HIT A BUMP MY AIRBAG LIGHT WILL COME ON. NOW FOR A 2015 200 LIMITED WHY AM I NEEDING TO REPLACE THE WHOLE STARTER ASSEMBLY AND NOW TO HAVE TO REPLACE THE AIR SHUTTER GRILLE. THE VEHICLE HEADLAMPS ARE EXTREMELY POOR. IT'S VERY HARD TO SEE SEE ON ALL HIGHWAYS, SIDE STREETS ETC. NOW THE TRACTION STABILIZERS LIGHT CAME ON AS I WAS BACKING IN TO A PARKING SPACE AS WELL AS MY BRAKES JUST STARTED MAKING A SQUEALING NOISE OUT NO WHERE AS DRIVING ON THE STREET. THERE NO REASON WHY THERE SHOULD NOT BE A RECALL ON MULTIPLE VEHICLE ISSUES AS MOST PEOPLE ARE STATING. WHY ISN'T THERE A NUMBER I CAN CALL TO FILE A COMPLIANT WITH ALL THE VEHICLE ISSUES I'VE EXPERIENCED? THIS JUST CRAZY THEN TO HAVE TO COME OUTTA $1,300.00 FOR VEHICLE REPAIRS IS CRAZY! WHY DOES THIS VEHICLE STALL WHEN THE OIL IS LOW SHAMEFUL FOR THE VEHICLE TO STOP AND AND BARELY START BACK! TIRES SUCKS OUTSIDE MIRRORS ALWAYS HAVE TO ADJUST THIS BRAND IS GARBAGE!! PEOPLE EVERYWHERE IS HAVING ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE STARTING.. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THESE VEHICLE ISSUES. THERE IS NO REASON WHY THIS VEHICLE IS 3 YEARS OLD AND IS STALLING THIS IS EMBARRASSING. ON TOP OF HAVING TO PAY A NOTE THAT RIDICULOUS. I WANT TO BE COMPENSATED IN THE AMOUNT OF THE VEHICLE REPAIRS.

TAKATA RECALL, I OWN A 2015 CHRYSLER 200S ONLY 40K MILES. SOMETIMES WHEN I'M DRIVING IT POPS UP WARNINGS FOR MY TRANSMISSION THEN VEGANS DRIVING HORRIBLE. I HIT THE GAS IT STALLS, DIES, IT IS VERY DANGEROUS. THEN NEXT DAY BACK TO NORMAL.

GATOR CHRYSLER SERVICE MANAGER ROGER CALLED THIS DEALERSHIP AND AGREED TO GIVE ME A NEW TIRE WITH ROAD HAZARD WARRANTY AFTER I GOT A NAIL IN MY TIRES ON HIS LOT. THE INVOICES WILL SHOW THIS. THE OTHER TIRE THEY PATCHED AND ROGER AFTER GETTING ON PHONE WITH TIRE KINGDOM REQUESTED THIS COME BACK TO HIM. THESE ORIGINAL 4 TIRES, INCLUDING THE PATCHED ONES HAD MATCHING DOT NUMBERS. THE NEW ONE PAID FOR BY ROGER OF GATOR CHRYLSER MELBOURNE, FL HAD AN INMATCHED DOT NUMBER, BEING FROM A NEW BATCH, ALSO LESSER TREAD WEAR COMPARED TO OTHER 3. TIRE KINGDOM SINCE HAS SEEN MY CAR MULTIPLE TIMES FOR TIRE PUNCTURES. I WAS TOLD THE CAR GUYS HERE ARE CONNECTED AND NOTHING IS FOR FREE. I WAS TOLD THEY ARE PAWNS FOLLOWING SOMEONES DIRECTIVE. THIS IS DISTURBING AS IT INVOLVES LOCAL ORGANIZED CRIME, AS EVEN THE POLICE COULD NOT GET AWAY WITH THIS ACTION LEGALLY. I SAVED TGE PATCHED TIRE AND ALL RECORDS. TIRE KINGDOM REPEATEDLY WITH GATOR CHRYSLER OF MELBOURNE, FL SABOTAGED MY CAR, TIRES SINCE

WHEN I TURN MY CAR OFF AT NIGHT, MY DASH BACKLIGHTING REMAINS ON 4 HOURS IF NOT INDEFINITELY. ALSO, THE CAR WILL OCCASIONALLY GO FROM A NORMAL READING TO OVERHEATING ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND IT WILL REMAIN OVERHEATING ONLY ON THE PANEL FOR A FEW MINUTES BEFORE GOING BACK TO NORMAL AGAIN. THE CAR HAS NO OTHER INDICATIONS THAT IT IS OVERHEATING. THERE IS NO SMELL OF ANTIFREEZE. THE HEAT CONTINUES TO WORK NORMALLY. THERE IS NO VISIBLE STEAM OR OTHER INDICATION THAT THE CAR ACTUALLY DOES OVERHEAT. IT APPEARS TO BE A ELECTRICAL ANOMALY. LASTLY, THE TOP HALF OF MY REAR WINDOW DEFROST IS NO LONGER WORKING. MY CAR HAS 48000 MILES ON IT AND HAS BEEN GARAGE ITS WHOLE LIFE.

CAR WOULD NOT START SMELLED LIKE IT HAS A ELECTRICAL SHORT. I WENT INTO THE STORE TO PICK UP SO ITEM WHEN I CAN BACK I PRESSED THE START ENGINE BUTTON BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT START. SOMEONE CAME AND GAVE ME JUMPSTART BUT THERE WAS NOT A PROBLEM WITH THE BATTERY THEN SOMEONE CAME TO TOW BUT WAS NOT ABLE TO BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T GET THE CAR TO GO INTO NEUTRAL . TOW TRUCK DRIVER SAID THAT THE RAIN MAY HAVE CAUSE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON PERMANENTLY. IT USED TO COME ON INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE HAD THE PROBLEM FIXED TWICE BY A CHRYSLER REPAIR FACILITY. I WAS TOLD NOT TO WORRY IT'S JUST A WIRING HARNESS PROBLEM. I'M SCARED BECAUSE I'VE SEEN AIRBAG RECALLS AND I DON'T KNOW WHY MY CAR HASN'T BEEN RECALLED YET. MY CAR ALSO SEEMS TO BE JERKING MORE FREQUENTLY. IT JERKS SOMETIMES WHEN I'M ACCELERATING. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS NORMAL BECAUSE OF THE TYPE OF ENGINE. I INQUIRED ABOUT THIS NOT LONG AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2015. THE JERKING SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON. I CAN PROVIDE INFO THAT MY AIRBAG SENSOR PROBLEM WAS FIXED TWICE.

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS I HAVE BEEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND MY CAR SHIFTS VERY HARD AND HAS MADE GRINDING NOISES. NOT ONLY THAT BUT EVER SINCE I HAVE BOUGHT IT, IT SHIFTS LIKE A RUBBER BAND BEING PULLED BACK AND MAKES YOU LUNGE FORWARD. I BELIEVE I HAVE TAKEN IT IN 3 TIMES NOW AND WITH NO RESOLUTION. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK IT IN THEY HAD A SERVICE REP RIDE WITH ME TO SEE WHAT I WAS FEELING. HE PERSONALLY SAID THAT IT WASN'T SHIFTING CORRECTLY AND SO THEY KEPT IT. WHEN I PICKED IT UP THEY INFORMED ME THEY DID NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT BUT RE-PROGRAMMED IT. AS I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP IT SHIFTED WORSE THAN BEFORE. I THEN CALLED AND COMPLAINED AND THEY SAID IT WAS NORMAL, ON MY WAY BACK HOME IT WAS CONSISTENTLY SHIFTING ROUGH. I FINALLY JUST PULLED OVER SHUT THE CAR OFF AND STARTED IT UP AGAIN. AFTER DOING SO IT SHIFTED SMOOTHER BUT WORSE THAN IT DID BEFORE. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT A SPEED OF 70 MPH SET ON CRUISE WHEN I TRIED TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL FUNCTION AND IT WOULD NOT DISENGAGE! I WAS GOING FROM A HIGHWAY TO A SPEED LIMIT CHANGE AND COULD NOT GET IT. LUCKILY I HAVE READ ABOUT THIS HAPPENING AND SHIFTED IT INTO NEUTRAL AND I WAS ABLE TO DISENGAGE IT AFTER THAT.

WHEN ACCELERATING CAR SHUDDERS/ WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED AT SPEEDS OF 20+ CAR SHAKES. TRANSMISSION RACES ITSELF GOING UP AND DOWN HILL HAVING TROUBLE SWITCHING GEARS IN AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. TROUBLE SHIFTING GEARS. CAR HAS SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING /SWITCHED TO NEUTRAL BY ITSELF.
