After vehicle reaches highway speeds for 30 or so miles there is a loud clunking noise in the steering area in the engine compartment. Took to dealership and they replaced tie rods and did a alignment. 2 days later same thing happens as well as the alignment was way out of specs, took back to shop where they replaced sway bar and left strut and alignment. Few days later the same sound is happening and the car is out of alignment ruining a new set of tires. Taking back to the shop for third and final time.

Starting over 1 year ago, my car has pulled to the right at all times and more drastically at higher speeds. The steering wheel also starts vibrating and shaking when over 55 mph. This car has been to the dealership at least 10 times for alignments, new struts, new tie rods, new tires, and several other fixes. None of these repairs have fixed the problem, and some of these actually made it worse. I no longer feel safe driving this car and fear crashing due to the extreme pull to the right. I just picked it up from the dealership after they adjusted the cambers and aligned it to pull to the left to compensate the right pull, which did not fix the problem.

I am having an issue with my Chrysler 200, I have 39540 miles on this vehicle, and my problem started on 11/11/14. As I was driving I could hear and feel a popping in my steering column. I was driving at 5 mph when I noticed it, I pulled over to check tires. It is really noticeable when making turns verses just driving straight. My son took it to dealership, and upon inspection, they informed me that the tie rods and rack and pinion are worn and have a lot of play. I purchased this vehicle new in July 2013 and should not be having a serious issues with steering mechanism, which they say is not covered under warranty.

Chunking and snapping problem in the steering gear box or tie rod ends. I've had it to the Chrysler dealer on Aug. 16th. 2015 and they couldn't fine it. But when I went on the web there I found hundreds on complaints. I had a live chat with the NHTSA. Gov and this problem was even on the 2011 Chrysler 200.

Vehicle has noise at steering assy. When driving . You could also feel it. Took it to Chrysler dealer and it was determined to be tie rods. How can a vehicle with only 6500 miles on it have bad tie-rods? they just don't make them like they use to.

From almost the beginning of owning this car it has made a noise in the left front driver's side. The steering wheel feels lose, like it could come apart. I had brake issues also. The dealer was able to find the brake noise, but not the noise in the left front driver's side. They say there is nothing they can detect. Yet, my car continues to make this noise. Now, I'm not a mechanic, but my car should not be making a noise if everything is alright. Checked on youtube and many people with Chrysler 200's, 2013's are having the same problem. They say their mechanics either cannot find the problem, or it's 1. Steering column 2. Outer tie rod end or sway bar end links 3. Ball joints 4. Bushings can be worn on control arms of sway bar or 4. Tie rod. My dealer cannot find any of that wrong with my car, yet, I believe it is one of these problems. My car was purchased at moore, Chrysler, Jeep, Subaru, at 8700 w. Bell, road in glendale, arizona. I am a single lady, living on social security disability. My dad bought this car for me. I cannot afford to have all these problems fixed if the warranty runs out, and the dealer lets it. I need them to take responsibility and fix my car.

Awful popping noise to front end when driving. Worsens over time . Had to shop 4 times. They now admit to a problem with tie rods at manufacture. Dealership is offering to fix with a $100 CO-pay since it is now out of warranty mileage. I am working with Chrysler to get the rest covered since it is an unresolved warranty issue.

Purchased this vehicle new off the lot April 2012. This issue I currently have became an issue for me in Feb 2014 with the winter weather I entered freeway tried to gain speed once speedometer hit 50ish noticed the car began to brake loose and sway side to side really quick and scary,immediately slowed down sensation went away could not drive above 40mph, while all traffic around me on the freeway were traveling at a much greater speeds I figured it was just by chance I hit an ice patch. I attempted to speed up and once hit 45mph the side to side sway once again was present exited the freeway and do not travel above 40 in any wet,snow,icy weather but regardless of speed if I hit anything slick I sway, the low speeds just help me maintain control of the car. My husband thought I must just need a winter tire,(there are a set of 4 goodyear eagles on it presently) until he drove it and determined there was definitely a serious issue jacked it up to reveal that it was the inner tie rods completely wiped out contributing to the sway. Contacted the dealership to resolve it(mind you the mileage was now at 37050) was told they would do an inspection for $85 and would call Chrysler to see if they would honor a repair since it is out of warranty however no guarantee that the repairs would be covered non the less a front end alignment. I could not leave my car for 3 days for diagnosis nor afford 85$ that would not even go towards the repair. I called Chrysler only to be told they can not guarantee anything nor would Chrysler consider anything until I have an inspection done that there are no discounts no courtesy inspection to be had. Bought a new car to avoid issues such as these.

Hearing front end clunking sounds when accelerating from stop and slowing down to a stop, and also noticing slight pull on steering, I brought my car to Chrysler dealer in avondale, az. Since my car is under warranty, only 15 months ownership and under 22k miles, I am concerned. This is the 2nd time my car has had serious problems; first was the transmission which fell apart at one week and 500 miles. The transmission was replaced at no cost to me by this dealer. My concern now is the front end - I was advised the inner tie rod ends are defective and must be replaced; items are on backorder. Why would tie rod ends be defective, so soon, with not excessive mileage at this time? the service manager verbally noted that my car is not the only one with this problem, and yet, no recall has been issued at this time - why not? shouldn't the tie rods also be replaced since they're not affected by the defective tie rod ends? in my opinion, a recall needs to be issued for safety concerns tie rod ends on this vehicle.
