Transmission service (power train ) caused my parking rod dislodged/broken to slip/jerk to lose control of vehicle. It had put us at high risk, no airbags didn't go off to causing passenger to hit their head blacking out and non-stop pain in rotating cuff of right shoulder. It was inspect by the police and city from not being drive-able to be towed and inspected by the towing/mechanical person. The messages that showed on dashboard was transmission failed/ services, engine light and having electrical issues to light was flicking once press on brakes. When idling to pulling off from a stop cause to jerk.

Emergency break on an off working parking pawl becomes dislodged and transmission to where it is shifting into neutral unexpectedly or shifting into park, which could be a potential rollaway which it has. Also back shocks and struts in the rear. Detaching etc. Electrical issues. Radio software and also intermittent power loss of vehicle. Or stalling issues .

Total suspension system problem,bad tire rods, bad swaylinks & control arms, total abs system problem, engine mounts problem, transmission mount & system problem, over idols at 0mph, seat material over wear & tear, carpeting wear & tear, auto paint fade.

The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated while driving 10-15 mph and making a left turn on a bridge, there was an abnormally loud sound coming from the vehicle, and the vehicle slid to the side of the road next to the curb. The contact stated that the front end of the vehicle had collapsed onto the front tires. The vehicle was towed to a tow lot. The vehicle was later towed to the residence and was then towed to an independent mechanic. The mechanic replaced the front suspension. The vehicle was repaired. The contact stated while accelerating from a complete stop, the vehicle made an abnormal cackling sound and was very sluggish. Additionally, the contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle stalled in the middle of the road. The vehicle was able to restart after several attempts. The contact pulled over to the side of the road. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The air bag warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to auto zone, where unknown diagnostic trouble codes were retrieved. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer was unreachable. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was filed. The manufacturer referred the contact to the NHTSA hotline for further assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.

Airbag light is on , 2nd time my lower control arms are broken and I go through a battery every 2 years average.

As I’m approaching a steeper hill I go from 25 to 20mph as I try to turn the corner of the hill I feel the speed of the vehicle picking up as I’m trying to slow down without slamming on the brakes the vehicle takes off hits the curb then a utility pole before coming to a complete stop.

Upon taking my Chrysler 2015 200 limited 2. 4l in-line into bay area Chrysler dealership to figure out why my car wasnt running correctly they it on their diagnostic they said it needed a body control module which the dealership put a new one charged me 199. 20 to put it in plus the $376. 35 for the module that was ordered which I paid . When I picked up my car it was parked with the ignition on and walked off with the key fob. After paying for another 200 $ for a new key fob I was told the new part didnt work. So now the center stack which controls the radio the heater /air conditioner controls screen off on selecter knob and parking brake do not work so im wondering if the electrical recall or failure of the dealership to do their job.

Transmission not properly shifting into gears. Car suspension is always slamming. Air bag error code.

Have had car less than a year. Air bag lights constantly come on and I have to get it repaired - light is on while driving and while stopped. Light came in the day I got the car as I was leaving the lot and they refused to do anything for it. Also the car keeps stalling. Had the battery replaced and alternator checked, which is running almost like brand new. The car still stalls while driving it with no warning signs at all. No lights are on it will just happen, again, with no warnings. Everything gets locked up and I can't even put the car in neural to back it out from the middle of the street. The car can barely handle highway speed limit of 70, the bumps or groves in the road almost feel like it's pushing the car and it will spin out (this is in dry warm weather). I've checked the tires they are fine. The entire suspension is bad and needs replaced. The charging systems for your phones don't always work, it's off and on. The chargers work just fine in the house so it's not the cords itself. Was shown the carfax before buying and there are no accident reports.

Car oil filter leaking oil cause fire.

Fuel pressure sensor.

Rear pass side shock bolt on the bottom going into axle keeps coming out.

There was a recall on the rear shock suspension, but my vehicle was not included and now I have the exact same problem. Rear shocks leaking and needing replacement. Found at car dealership doing routine maintenance.

Air bag light and check engine light is on also a electrical light comes on it looks like it's saying the engine it to hot but I am not sure exactly it comes on almost right after starting car.

First it was my transmission skipping,than my car keep skipping grasp, now it's lock in neutral my back tires will not move.

The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, a rattling and screaking noise was present coming from the front of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the front passenger’s and driver’s side struts had fractured and needed to be replaced. The struts were replaced and the failure was remedied. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

I've had multiple issues. First, my car stalled as I was driving down main streets, the first time I took it to the dealership, they said they couldn't find a problem with it. Second dealership I took it to said it was an electrical issue my car was having, kept it for a week, repaired the issue. Second time I took it in was because my airbag alert illuminated on the dash, again, they said it was a wiring issue, someone had kicked the wiring loose under the passenger seat. Then I had it towed in because it completely stopped on me while I was driving it . Now it's in the shop because the malfunction came on, I still attempted to drive it to work,but when I went back out for lunch, it wouldn't start. Roadside jumpstarted it, and it started. Went back out when I got off work and it wouldn't start. . . However, while I was getting out, the dash lit up as and kept beeping as if the car was running, so I actually had to push the start button to turn it off , weird, right! but then as I'm walking away from the car, it's trying to accelerate on its own, as if I was trying to remote start it. Had it towed to dealership. They're diagnostic explanation for my car - my climate control module doesn't work, and I need a new battery, and yes my door panel had some faulty wires and they're waiting for the parts to repair this, but it's something I have to pay for. When I turn my car to the left, it sounds like something is going to break. My tires slide when it's raining, even though I purchased new ones. Also, my climate control has been beyond functioning. I drive 17 miles to and from work, and I have to turn it down because it's freezing sometimes. It's sad to know I purchased a lemon and that they cannot be honest about their recalls and making sure my safety comes before their negligence. , and stop trying to coverup their screwups in manufacturing a total lemon.

Car started making an awful clanking noise when turning. Had three (3) different places look at it and they all said it was the transmission. Took it to spitzer Chrysler in brook park, OH who said it was everything but the transmission. They wanted to charge me more than the car is worth. Had it towed to a different Chrysler dealer as it's undrivable and leaked all it's transmission fluid out.

Air bag sensor, cooling thermostat and hosing. Shocks headlight issues electrical. I have put two thermostat and changed hosing twice. There are sever recalls listed on the same make year and model and under my VIN there's no recalls yet I'm experiencing the same issues that were recalled on the same year make and model. This does not make since why isn't my car covered for the recalls. I took my car to Chrysler dealer and called cooperate and they said my car isn't covered but there's recalls with the same issues for the same year make and model.

Tl-the contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200s. The contact stated that when the vehicle drives over any bumps, there is no support from the shocks( violent hit from the wheels) without warning. The vehicle was seen at a independent mechanic who diagnosed the vehicle and confirmed that the shocks and struts needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired however, the failure occurred multiple times. The dealer Chrysler of culpeper 11030 james monroe hwy, culpeper, va 22701 (540) 547-3900 was contacted and informed to the contact that 0 recalls was available. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure anc confirmed no recalls. The contact referenced campaign number:14v392000 (suspension) as a possible cause of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 35,000. Ck.

I am experiencing rattling from my rear driver's side wheel that only occurs when there are bumps in the road. The brakes have been checked and there are no issues with the tires. However, I can feel every bump that I go over but only on the side where the back tire is on the driver's side.

My breaking is in effective. The ride of the car is not smooth. When taking it to get it serviced they told me my make and model is on recall for this exact problem I am having but my VIN number did not show up. I have not gotten it repaired as it is expensive and Chrysler should honor this problem. I believe my VIN number should fall in the recall guidelines.

The car shut completely off while in an intersection while attempting to make a right turn. The car shut off during a right turn. The car shut off while backing out of my garage. The car jerks as if a ghost is hitting it from behind in the middle of take off from a complete stop at a light or stop sign. It shakes everyone up in front and back seats and it happens randomly and spontaneously. This behavior has been happening for two years now and it wasn't not provoked by an accident. Thank you.

Hvac controls blower motor keeps going out and resistor and acuator I have replaced it 3 times . Transmission shift hard violently hard shifts . And suspension is is unsafe whobble at at high speed mechanic cant find problem I've spent $2400 dollars replacing suspension parts and still cannot find the cause of the death whobble at highway speeds. I am located in new albany mississippi .

Took car for routine tire rotation, 44,000 miles on car. Told could not rotate due to rear passenger tire "cupping". Did research, was a recall for 2015 Chrysler for faulty shocks in rear of car. I called Chrysler, told me my VIN was not included. Very dangerous, shock could break, tire could blow out. I will have to pay for the new faulty shocks myself and 2 new rear tires.

I've had problems with the air conditioning it won't turn on after the heater is on the next day it won't turn on and when the car needs a oil change the engine light will turn on and then the car start acting funny it will just turn off in the st and it won't turn back on and I can't take it off parking to make the car and then when it does turn on the speed won't work it won't go over 15 mph but I can hear the engine and the meters go up.

(1) I purchased my car in October 2016. My car cut off in the middle of a very busy city street intersection. I had to keep blowing my horn and keep hazard lights on. My two children were in the car with me! it has cut off a total of 3 times since I purchased it, less than 2 years ago. I took more than 3 minutes to start up again. (2)the car also jolts, while driving, a lot causing everyone in the car to push forward off of the seats.

I was told by wheelworks that my tires were cupping because the front struts and back shocks were bad. There is a visible leak in the left front strut and the left back shock. The vehicle has 28,,700 miles. The front tire was making a noise after the tires were rotated at the dealership during an oil change.

Tl- the contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that the vehicle was hesitating at any rate of speed and the oil had been low however the contact was uncertain if there was an internal fracture or failure that had caused the failure with no presence of a leak. In addition, the dealer david Dodge Chrysler Jeep, 1801 us-202, glen mills, PA 19342, (610) 358-5300 had been unable to provide a specific repair remedy so the vehicle was not repaired yet. The dealer had mentioned that they serviced the vehicle with a warranty but had not disclosed specific diagnosis information. In addition, the contact had the rear shocks replaced twice and was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 14v392000 (suspension) however the vehicle exhibited the same failure as the recall campaign. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was not available. Dyd.

Drove the car from germantown MD to washington DC for a program, got in the car two hours later. Door unlocked with remote, place foot on brake, dash lights and radio turns on car won't start. Stop recognizing my remote in the car. I had people try hooking up jumper cables, nothing happen. After two hours of trying to figure out what's wrong car starts. Drive the car home with no issues. Next morning car won't start same thing happening. I looked down and noticed the car showing in neutral when the knob turned to park. The electrical system reading my car in neutral but it's not therefore it won't start. I took my car in for the recall and criswell only did a updating of software, the rewiring of the electrical system wasn't done. The recall wasn't done as called for and the remote is a replacement after they lost my original.

The car has a several second hesitation when placing your foot on the gas when starting from either a stopped position or a slowed position. The car has stalled on several occasions when going from reverse to drive, when slowly backing up it looses power and stalls as I put my foot on the brake to change from reverse to drive. The emergency brake has come on while slowing down coming down an incline causing a car behind me to have to swerve from hitting me my vehicle was going approximately 25 miles an hour at the time. All of these have been reported to Chrysler and motorworld where I have been told there is nothing that can be done.

First, there is the hvac/windshield defrost. My concern with that condition is that my vehicle is my main source of travel and to have the hvac to work properly in the summer is vital as well, as having a clear windshield. A breakdown at night, an accident, hitting a pole hole, something or someone would be far worse than a mere inconvenience. Incidentally, my intended use of the vehicle was made quite clear to the sales staff when I bought it. Second, and the matter of far greater concern to me is the transmission. Car making clucking noise, vibrating, jerking while shifting gears and launching while driving as if someone hit me from the back. Third, vehicle is only 2 years old and has had to have the drive shaft replaced. Which in return I've been without vehicle for more then 14 days and occur extra expenses of car rentals, tires and wheel alignment due to irregular wear. Fourth, hesitation on attempt to accelerate. I was informed that issue would be resolved with replacement of drive shaft. Defective drive shaft was the reason for delay and jerking. Fifth, excessive gas burning. I was informed that exist because of drive shaft. Once drive shaft was replaced it didn't resolve issue. I was giving a formula to calculate gas mileage, which was given to dealer. Car averaging 16mpg. Per car sticker fuel economy: highway 29/ city 18. Car is driven mostly on highway without a lot of stop and go traffic. Our state's lemon law dictates that a vehicle carries a presumption that it is a lemon if a condition exists �that is likely to cause death or serious bodily injury if the vehicle is driven and the nonconformity has been subject to repair two or more times by the manufacturer or its agents, and the buyer or lessee has at least once directly notified the manufacturer of the need for the repair of the nonconformity. �.

The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. While driving approximately 40 mph, a loud abnormal noise was heard from the front of the vehicle. The vehicle began to lose power and then stalled. The contact turned the engine of and was able to restart the vehicle. In addition, while depressing the accelerator pedal to the floorboard, the vehicle failed to accelerate. The contact noticed that the front passenger side tire was leaning outwards. The vehicle was towed to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the axle had detached and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 55,000.

The vehicle has continual jerking,rattling, and bouncing at the rear with the slightest dip in road within city limits and also on the highway and sounds as if the vehicles is about to fall apart. When driving the car will accelerate itself causing me to hard brake to avoid collision.

The vehicle has had repeated electrical problems where the instrument panel will suddenly start flashing service transmission, service airbags, service brakes and during that time the electronic gear shift disengages from drive and alternates from park to low while the vehicle is moving. The dealership finally after two years of complaining and being turned away because the car was not storing an codes found the vehicle had a faulty electronic module in the transmission. This transmission has been service and reprogrammed 4 times since it's purchase in June of 2014 and now there is a new recall for the same issue. I'm not safe in this death trap.
