Car stalls loses power dies in the middle of intersections and busy highways has very high oil consumption no low oil indicator light has ever been displayed I have almost lost my life my children's lives even my family and friends lives due to this issue it's also causing me lots of extra expenses which might I say have gotten very expensive time after time again replacing the burnt oil all the time tow truck fees mechanic fees hotel fees part fees rental car fees all because the manufacturer of this vehicle could care less the safety of the people should always be more important than anything else point blank.
Starting in October 2018 this car has cut off on me for no reason at any given time. I will be driving and it will cut off and tell me to shift into park. Sometimes it cranks back up other times it doesn�t. I have taken it to landmark Chrysler five different times. Each time I am told that it's a different problem. And each time the car does the exact same thing again. This has endangered my life and the life of my two year old son. After completing two different oil consumption test landmark(morrow,GA) still hasn't been able to diagnose the problem so the warranty company won't fix the car. They know that it's using too much oil but they claim they don't know why. This car is a safety hazard and nothing is being done about it. They just try to get you to trade it in for another car with a higher payment. This problem really needs to be investigated before it causes someone their life. I have been driving on major highways when this car has cut off with no warning and narrowly missed being hit by a semi truck. I have filed a complaint with Chrysler corporate but that has gotten me no where because the person I speak with (will in customer care) does nothing and claims that he doesn't have a supervisor that I can contact.
Tl the contact owns a 2016 Chrysler 200. The contact drove the vehicle to west covina Chrysler (298 n azusa Ave, west covina, CA 91791) for an oil consumption test because it was using excessive amounts of oil. The contact received a technical service bulletin that indicated the vehicle should consume a lot of oil, according to manufacturer standards. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 21,086.
Oil consumption and electric wiring problems causing the air conditioner to go out and blow hot air. The oil consumption will need entire engine replaced. Oil consumption almost caused wreck because car will throw car in park at unexplained times because oil is low even when oil was changed. Very very dangerous. Oil light does not come on either even oil is dangerously low. Driver is unaware.
I was driving down the road and while accelerating , my car suddenly jerks really hard forward . My engine starts knocking really loudly & I started to smell burning oil . The car was smoking & could have lead to a very serious accident . Now as the result of Chrysler 200 being such a failed model , I was unable to continue making payments and fix the vehicle , now I'm $22,000 in debt .
Tl the contact owns a 2016 Chrysler 200. While driving approximately 30 mph, the vehicle slowed down and shut off without warning. The vehicle was able to be restarted, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to napleton's river oaks Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram (708-801-3090, located at 17225 torrence Ave, lansing, IL 60438) where it was diagnosed that the oil was low.

The manufacturer was made aware of the failures and recommended an oil consumption test be conducted. The failure recurred and the manufacturer ordered the dealer to perform a diagnostic test.

I have noticed that my 2016 Chrysler 200 is burning oil at an alarming rate. I didn't even know it was low because there is no sensor that shows up on the dash letting me know the oil was low. The "oil change life" is still at 20% life but my car has burned thru over 4 quarts of oil in 4,000 miles!! I find this extremely concerning not to mention the possible engine damage that can be done with a car burning this much oil. There should be an alert to drivers letting them know the oil levels are low. I have never had a car that burned oil like this!.
We own a 2016 Chrysler 200 with a 4 cylinder engine that is burning one quart of oil every 750 miles. We are told by the dealer that Chrysler engineers say it is acceptable for that engine to use a quart of oil in 750 to 1000 miles. The engine has done this since it was new. They replaced fouled spark plugs and even complete cylinders on the car. The last time my wife waited until the recommended oil change it had used 5 quarts. The dealer is still giving us the run around as is mr stander at Chrysler USA and sergio marchioni who called the designers of the engine �dummies�. Recall these cars now.
