2015 Chrysler 200

ENTERPRISE AUTO SALES SOLD ME THIS CHRYSLER 200 WITH AN OPEN WARRANTY ON IT, WHICH I DISCOVERED LATER ON. FROM THE TIME I DROVE IT HOME, THERE HAVE BEEN ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION BEHAVING ERRATICALLY, SURGING OR RACING IDLE AND LURCHING FROM A STOPPED AND/OR SLOW MPH. IT HAS ALSO BEHAVED AS THOUGH ITS SUDDENLY IN IDLE ONLY ONE TO JUMP BACK INTO GEAR. IT'S BEEN TO THE DEALER FOR THE TCM RECALL AND THAT HASN'T REMEDIED THE PROBLEM. THEN A NEW SAFETY RECALL WAS RELEASED AND THERE IS NO DATE ON WHEN THE MOST RECENT ISSUES WILL BE FIXED. I SAW THAT MY VEHICLE WAS POTENTIALLY LISTED UNDER THE CONSENT AGREEMENT'S BUY-BACK OPTION FOR OWNERS. WHEN I SPOKE WITH CUSTOMER SERVICE, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO SUCH THING AS A BUY-BACK PROGRAM AND MY VEHICLE WAS NOT WITHIN THE CONSENT AGREEMENT. I REQUESTED ANOTHER DEPARTMENT AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO OTHER DEPARTMENT. I ASKED TO SPEAK WITH A SUPERVISOR AND WAS FLATLY DENIED BY THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE WHO HAD A SPEECH IMPEDIMENT. I HAVEN'T EVER DEALT WITH A CSR THAT HOSTILE. I'M SURPRISED SHE WORKS WITH CUSTOMERS. I'VE ONLY HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 4 MONTHS AND IT'S BEEN A NIGHTMARE. DEFINITELY BUYERS REMORSE HERE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR AT ALL. CHRYSLER HAS HAD MORE THAN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME TO EITHER REPAIR OR REFUND THIS VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD REPURCHASE IT FROM ME SO I CAN INVEST IN SOMETHING ELSE. AND AS A SIDE NOTE: I HAVE MANAGED TO TRACK DOWN ALL OF HE WORK ORDERS COMPLETED ON THIS CAR EXCEPT FOR THE FIRST SAFETY RECALL, AND ACCORDING TO CHRYSLER'S RECORDS, IT WAS REPAIRED BY A RENTAL COMPANY WHO IS NOW DEFUND. VERY SHADY.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK YESTERDAY EVENING DOING 60 -65 MPH ON HWY 6 AND MY CAR DECELERATED LIKE IT TURNED OFF. I TRIED PUSHING THE GAS AND NOTHING HAPPENED, THE ENGINE DIDN'T EVEN REV UP. I HAD WARNING LIGHTS FLASHING ON MY DASH. I TRIED UPLOADING PICTURES BUT THEY WOULDN'T ATTACH. I COASTED THE TO SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND MY CAR WOULDN'T DISENGAGE FROM DRIVE. I TURNED MY CAR OFF HOPING THAT WOULD HELP, BUT WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON IT WOULDN'T CHANGE GEARS FROM PARK. I GOT TOWED TO THE NEAREST CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP. TODAY I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE DEALERSHIP THAT THEY WERE GOING TO RESET SOME COMPUTER DRIVE AND I "SHOULD BE GOOD TO GO THIS AFTERNOON". I TOLD THAT LADY THERE'S A RECALL ON CHRYSLERS FOR THAT VERY ISSUE AND I REFUSE TO DRIVE THAT CAR UNTIL IT'S FIXED. THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR. I'VE BARELY HAD IT A YEAR. SHE TOLD ME THAT RIGHT NOW THEY CAN'T FIX IT. IF THEY CAN'T FIX IT THEN CHRYSLER NEEDS TO BUY BACK ALL OF THESE CARS FROM THE PEOPLE GOT SCAMMED INTO BUYING THEM. I'VE HAD ENGINE TROUBLE FROM THIS CAR FROM DAY 1.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. WHILE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE RPMS SURGED INDEPENDENTLY OF DRIVER INPUT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V529000 (POWER TRAIN). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,000.

TAKATA RECALL: MY CAR SHUTS OFF AND WILL NOT POWER BACK UP OR ALLOW TO START SOMETIMES WHEN I STOP. IT ALSO WILL NOT DETECT MY KEY FOBS WHILE IM TRYING TO START IT. ALSO, IT WILL JUMP VERY BADLY WHEN GOING SLOW(STREET) OR FAST(FREEWAY). THE CAR ALSO SMELLED LIKE FIRE WHILE I WAS DRIVING ONE DAY. IT ALSO HAD AN ISSUE WHERE IT SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS REVERSING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES AND MADE A COMPLAINT WITH CORPORATE 2 TIMES. THEY ALWAYS SEEM TO SAY THEY DID NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR. ONE OF MY CASE NUMBERS WITH CHRYSLER CORPORATE IS 29448239 AND THE OTHER IS 29301258. BOTH WERE CLOSED ALTHOUGH I STATED THAT THE ISSUE WAS NOT RESOLVED.

I BOUGHT THE CAR IN FEBRUARY 2016 AND WAS TOLD IT WAS BOUGHT BACK BECAUSE OF A SENSOR AND HAD GONE THROUGH FULL INSPECTION AND WAS CLEARED FOR SALE. TWO DAYS LATER MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR HAD ACCELERATED FROM 60-92 ON IT'S OWN. THE DEALERSHIP PUTS NEW PARTS IN AND EVERY TWO WEEKS AFTER I GET MY CAR BACK, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE CAR IS ACCELERATING ON IT'S OWN. CHRYSLER HAS A TEAM TALKING WITH THE DEALERSHIP BUT THE CAR HAS BEEN BACK AROUND 10 TIMES AND IS STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. LAST WEEK IT ACCELERATED FROM 72 TO 97 ON THE FREEWAY WHILE MY 2 YEAR OLD SON WAS IN THE CAR. WE ALMOST HIT A SEMI. I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW CHRYSLER IS ABLE TO KEEP CLOSING MY CASES AND TELLING ME THEY FIXED IT WHEN IT IS STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I'VE GOOGLED ENGINE ISSUES ON THESE CARS AND FOUND MINE WASN'T THE ONLY ONE DOING THIS. I AM PAYING A LOT OF MONEY FOR AN UNSAFE CAR THAT KEEPS ACCELERATING ON IT'S OWN AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS NEEDING A SOFTWARE UPDATE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.

"TAKATA RECALL" ON OR ABOUT 8/25/15, I PURCHASED W/WARRANTY A 2015 CHRYSLER 200 (USED). THE CAR SHUT DOWN WHILE @ A TRAFFIC LIGHT. ON OR ABOUT 10/11/15. TOWED TO FULTON DODGE, JEEP, CHRYSLER, SACTO. CA. FOR "RECALL REPAIRS" I EXPERIENCED THE CAR MAKING FORWARD JERKING MOTIONS WHEN DOWNSHIFTING & COMING TO A STOP ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, AGAIN ON OR ABOUT NOV. 2015, I WERE AT A LOCAL GROCERY STORE WHEN THE CAR WOULD NOT START, AND WAS TOWED TO ELK GROVE DODGE, JEEP CHRYSLER FOR FURTHER DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIRS. THE CAR AFTER SEVERAL WEEKS DRIVING STARTED JERKING UPON DOWNSHIFTING AND WOULD SKIP THE #2 GEAR. THE VEHICLE IN QUESTION WAS BROUGHT BACK INTO ELK GROVE DODGE, JEEP CHRYSLER FOR FURTHER TRANSMISSION & SOFTWARE REPAIRS ON OR ABOUT DEC. 2015. SEVERAL LETTERS AND EMAILS HAD BEEN WRITTEN TO CHRYSLER CORPORATION COMPLAINING ABOUT THE MATTER. A "LEMON LAW" COMPLAINT HAD BEEN FILED MARCH 2016, SETTLED ON OR ABOUT 4/13/16 WITH FCA., BUYING BACK THE CHRYSLER, AND REIMBURSEMENT OF PAYMENTS MADE, EXCEPT REIMBURSEMENT FOR KEEPING THE CAR INSURED, I'VE YET TO BE NOTIFIED WHEN AND WHERE TO RETURN THE "COFFIN" CHRYSLER. MY LIFE HAS BEEN IN JEOPARDY FROM DAY OF PURCHASE.

TAKATA RECALL WELL I GUESS I'LL JOIN IN WITH THE REST. MY 200 IS JUST ABOUT A YEAR OLD. I HAVE JUST A LITTLE OVER 10,000 MILES ON IT. BEEN BACK TO DEALER TWICE WITH SAME PROBLEM. SPEEDS UP WHEN BRAKING AT ABOUT 35 MPH. THEN WHEN ACCELERATING ENGINE DIES AND VEHICLE SLOWS DOWN....THEN SPEEDS UP. 1ST TIME THEY DOWNLOADED AN UPDATE... 2ND TIME THEY SAID NOTHING WRONG THAT THEY COULD FIND. (ACCORDING TO DIAGNOSTIC CODES) I LIKE MY CAR.. LET ME KNOW WHEN THEY FINALLY GET A FIX FOR THIS. THIS IS ON RURAL COUNTRY ROADS MOUNTAINOUS AND HILLY. ITBIS DANGEROUS.

THE CAR IS BURNING OIL. 35 QT IN 6000 MILES. THAT IS ALL YOU SMELL AS YOU DRIVE OR AT IDLE. THE CAR JERKS BACK AND FORTH AS YOU DRIVE NOT GOOD FORM MY 5 YR AND 3 YR OLD NECKS WHEN ITS JERKING THEM BACK AND FORTH. AS WE BRAKE THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT IS GIVING GAS TO GO. THE CAR HAS DIED AT STOP SIGNS IN THE MIDDLE OF KNOW WHERE.
