I PURCHASED THIS 2015 200 CHRYSLER JANUARY 1, 2016 FROM ZEIGLER CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OF DOWNERS. ADDRESS 2311 OGDEN AVE, DOWNERS GROVE ,IL . LEADING UP TO THE ENGINE GOING OUT THE CAR WOULD JUST RANDOMLY CUT OFF WHILE IN MOTION AND ALSO MAKING TURNS. I TOOK IT BACK TO THIS DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT THE ENGINE WENT OUT. ON JUNE 14,2016 THAT'S WHEN I GOT AN ENGINE REPLACED. I ASK IF IT WAS NEW OR USED AND THEY ASSURED ME THAT IT WAS A NEW ENGINE. HOWEVER KEEPING UP WITH OIL CHANGES, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED A TUNE UP DONE. SO I GOT MY SPARK PLUGS CHANGED. AFTER THAT THE CAR WOULD JUST CUT OFF WHILE IN MOTION AND ALSO TURNING. I TRIED DRIVING THE CAR TO WORK WHILE TURNING IT ON WHENEVER IT CUTS OFF. THE BRAKES GOT SO TIGHT ON ME THAT I HAD TO USE BOTH FEET TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I GOT THE CAR TOWED TO A CAR SHOP AND THEY STATED THAT THIS CAR HAD TO BE LOOKED AT BY A DEALERSHIP.SO I GOT THE CAR TOWED TO THE NEAREST CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT THERE WAS 4 THINGS WRONG WITH THIS CAR. THEN CALLED ME BACK AND STATED THAT THIS CAR NEEDED AN ENGINE. THIS CAR IS UNDER A HUNDRED THOUSAND MILES AND WITH THIS PROBLEM OCCURRING AGAIN FOR THE SECOND TIME. LOOKING FOR HELP AND ANSWERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL WITHOUT WARNING AND THEN STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER APPROXIMATELY FIVE ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V529000 (POWER TRAIN). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

I HAVE A CHRYSLER 200C AWD 2015 THAT IS CONTINUALLY SABOTAGED/REFUSAL TO FIX BY VARIOUS CHRYSLER DEALERS SINCE COMPLAINING ABOUT A WARRANTY FIX ISSUE EARLY ON. EVER SINCE ITS BEEN A SERIES A MISHAPS SINCE GOING TO THE DEALER. GATOR CHRYSLER OF MELBOURNE, FL AND BONAFICE HEIRS CHRYSLER OF MERRITT ISLAND, FL BOTH AGGRESSIVELY TRY TO GET ME TO TRADE THE VEHICLE IN INSTEAD OF FIXING IT. REPEATEDLY THEY STATE THEY ARE NOT HEARING THE ISSUES THAT ARE NOT EASY TO FIX, IE TRANSMISSION HANGUP BETWEEN 4TH AND 5TH GEAR. THE CAR IS FIXED FOR VARIOUS ISSUES THAT ALWAYS REQUIRE ME TO BRING IT BACK. I WOULD LIKE SOMEONE FROM YOUR AGENCY TO PULL ALL RECORDS RELATING FROM CHRYSLER, AND BOTH OF THE AFOREMENTIONED DEALERS. THE PHONE RECORDS AND CALL LOGS ARE CRUCIAL TO THE INVESTIGATION. ALSO I OPENED ARBITRATION THAT WAS IGNORED AND I FEEL THE CAR IS A LEMON. CHRYSLER AT THIS POINT REFUSES TO FIX THE CAR TO STANDARDS. EACH TIME THEY SAY AND LIST ON THE PAPERWORK THAT THEY WILL BE DOING A 16 MULTIPOINT INSPECTION. REPEATEDLY THIS IS STATED TO BE DONE, BUT THE TIMELINE OF FIXES DO NOT ALIGN. I'M NOT SMART ENOUGH AND NEED AN ENGINEER FROM CHRYSLER TO PHYSICALLY COME TO A LOCAL LOCATION TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. SCOTT PELLEY AND SECRET SHOPPERS SHOULD BE DONE MIRRORING THIS SCENERIO AS HEARSAY IS THIS IS COMMON PRACTICE GIVEN THE NUMBER OF ELDERLY IN THIS AREA. I CAN'T FORMALLY MAKE THIS ACCUSATION, BUT FROM MISSING TIRES, MYSTERIOUS MISHAPS AND THEN BEING OUT THE VEHICLE, STOOD UP FOR RENTALS, ETC. THE MAIN POINT NOW IS I WAS TOLD THE COOLANT WOULD BE CHECKED STANDARD IN A MULTIPOINT INSPECTION, BUT IT WAS NOT BECAUSE WHEN I LEFT BONAFICE HEIRS CHRYSLER IT IMMEDIATELY OVERHEATED. THEY ARE BREAKING THE CAR TO GET BACK AT ME AND MAKE ME LOOK NONCREDIBLE IN THE DISORGANIZATION. I JUST KNOW ITS ALL FISHY AND IS BEYOND ME AT THIS POINT TO AUDIT, BUT NEEDS TO BE DONE FOR SAFETY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO BACK THE VEHICLE OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AND SEIZED. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE OUT OF NEUTRAL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

LAST YEAR HAD THE CAR IN DO TO THE TRANSMISSION THE SHOP REPROGRAMMED THE COMPUTER. LAST WEEK WHILE DRIVING THE CAR WAS GOING 55 AND SEEMED LIKE IT QUIT MOVING THEN THE MOTOR RPMS KEPT GOING UP. FINALLY WE PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND STOPPED IT. RESTARTED IT AND IT SOUNDED VERY ROUGH AT FIRST THEN SETTLED DOWN. WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME 5 MINUTES AWAY. NEXT DAY COULDN'T START THE CAR. TOWED IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THE MOTOR IS SHOT. THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT FOR SOMETHING THAT I NEVER WAS INFORMED ABOUT.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR RANDOMLY SHUTS OFF. ITS TAKES A FEW TRIES BEFORE I CAN GET IT TO CRANK UP AGAIN. TERRIBLE CAR!!

I LIVE IN ARIZONA AND WENT OUT TO MY CAR TO LEAVE WORK YESTERDAY. IT WAS 101 DEGREES OUTSIDE AND THE TEMPERATURE READING INSIDE THE CAR WAS 110. WHEN I TURNED THE CAR OVER TO LEAVE THERE WAS AN ALERT SAYING THAT THE AIR BAGS NEED TO BE SERVICED. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE. IT WENT OFF AS THE CAR WAS COOLING DOWN BUT THEN CAME BACK ON THEN OFF. THE TEMP WENT TO 101 AND HAS NOT COME ON AGAIN AS OF TODAY. I AM CONCERNED THAT IT CAN EITHER BE THE SENSOR GETTING HOT OR THE ACTUAL AIR BAGS. THE RISK COULD BE THAT THE AIR BAGS COULD DEPLOY WHEN I AM NOT DRIVING OR WHILE I AM DRIVING. OR NOT DEPLOY AT ALL IF I WAS EVER IN AN ACCIDENT.

THE SERVICE AIRBAG SYSTEM LIGHT RANDOMLY CAME ON. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP'S SHOP FOR DIAGNOSIS. THEY TELL ME THAT A SENSOR UNDER THE SEAT HAS SHORTED AND THAT IT WILL REQUIRE AN ENTIRE NEW WIRING HARNESS AND A NEW AIRBAG WHICH WILL COST OVER $2,000.

THE CAR STALLS WHEN PRESSING THE GAS. ONCE IT FINALLY CATCHES IT'S A HARD JERK IN THE CAR. HAVE TAKEN TO HAVE INSPECTED BUT SERVICE STATION SAYS IT'S FINE.
