1 Transmission Not Go Into Gear problem of the 2015 Chrysler 200

Failure Date: 05/22/2020

January 13,2017 I purchased my vehicle from carite dealership. About four or five months later I had an issue come saying service transmission. My car immediately started to stall and not switch into gear while on the freeway. I had to switch lanes and it wasn't easy seeing that cars was going 70 miles in speed. Eventually I got off to side street then powered the car down. Tried starting it and it wouldn't move. I waited an hour before the car started next day to the dealership I go to only be told there's nothing wrong with it. This issue will happen occasionally more so during summer. I took it back to the dealership still they see nothing wrong but a throttle body like seriously. I complained that it was still an issue and demanded it be fixed. They said it's no problem. I haven't took it to the dealership since because I was tried of the run around and them saying it's nothing wrong. My car does this frequently mainly on the highway where it's unsafe to be doing so. I've even had problems where the car doesn't start up till the next day. I had problems where the when it's time for an oil change that it eventually shutdowns down. Today may 22,2020 is the latest where once again the car would not move.

Failure Date: 09/03/2019

The car stalled at a stop sign and stalled again 3 times after that. It read shift to p to start I did that and it would not let me change gear after that. I know this is a common problem with the Chrysler 200 so it should be a recall. This is a huge safety issue it happened while driving in a roundabout and people could have rear ended me.

Failure Date: 06/02/2018

Takata recall my car is stuck in neutral the gear knob will turn but it's not switching gears and it also says service park brakes and I know my brakes are good. I've looked online and a lot of people with the same car is having the same problem. It happens when you're riding down the road but this particular time it was parked. That can be very dangerous. If more than one person is having the same problem then something must be wrong.

Failure Date: 04/18/2018

The vehicle will stall while driving causing you to stop, place in park and restart. Upon trying to restart it struggles to turn over. Seems to be happening with the car has sat for awhile and is cold. The temp gauge shows nothing on it. I know the car will stall. If there is a line or more on the temp gauge on the dashboard it doesn't seem to have any issues. The vehicle is also not shifting from gear to gear properly. It seems to not catch when it should go to the next gear. The car will jerk.

11 Transmission Not Go Into Gear problem of the 2015 Chrysler 200

Failure Date: 04/07/2017

Over the course of the past 4 months, my vehicle has completely lost all transmission power 3 times. When this occurs, the information display reads the following messages: "service transmission," "service parking brake," "shift to p to select a gear," "performance shifting unavailable". These messages will continue to display and the car loses all power and will not change gears. The engine does stay on, but will have no throttle response and the car is effectively stuck in neutral. Each of the 3 times this has happened, I have been at full speed, between 45 and 80 mph. The second two times it has happened have been in dangerous and unsafe locations, just yesterday, I lost all power while executing a left hand turn across 3 lanes of busy oncoming traffic. Thank goodness for the small bit of gravity that pulled me across the intersection before a tragic accident happened. Each of the 3 times, I have had the vehicle towed to a certified Chrysler dealership. Each of the Chrysler dealerships have told me that the car "isn't throwing any codes" and does not appear to have a malfunction. They will flash a new TSB, reset the transmission, and send me on my way, only to have it happen again and no one can tell me why. The vehicle is unreliable due to these ongoing powertrain struggles, and more importantly, completely unsafe. It's caused me nearly 2 serious accidents due to total lack of control at high speeds.

12 Transmission Not Go Into Gear problem of the 2015 Chrysler 200

Failure Date: 02/07/2017

When driving my vehicle it will not shift gears, I have to let up on the gas and then apply pressure to gas petal and it will finally shift very hard. Sometimes while trying to exelerate on ramp to get into the highway it will not exelerate but just be stuck in first gear and then it will jump or shift very hard into the correct gear. I have had this happen many times on the highway and almost been hit because I'm coming off the ramp to slow. Other times I will just be driving in the city and it will jump without shifting. I have expressed my concerns with my dealership on may occasions. This has been happening ever since I purchased the vehicle in March of 2016.

13 Transmission Not Go Into Gear problem of the 2016 Chrysler 200

Failure Date: 01/01/2017

Went to a store with a heavily sloped parking lot. Approximately 15 to 20 degrees. Parked car and went in side, returned to the car, started, and placed car in reverse, looked behind me for pedestrians and notice some people down a little ways. . Proceeded to carefully pull out of the slopping parking space in reverse. Applied slight pressure to brake pedal to shifted car into drive. Removed foot from brake to apply foot to gas pedal with a little more pressure than usual due to the slop, to keep car from rolling backwards. . The car keep rolling in reverse due to the declining slop of the parking lot. Car did not engage into drive and the engine revved up to high rpms and if not for a fast reaction from me returning my foot to brake after realizing what was going on, I could of easily ran into the people that I noticed earlier. Not good! when I put my foot on the gas peddle to stop the car, the car went into gear and the car shook violently due to the high rpms. The people in the parking lot were also startled. This is the primary car for my wife and I asked her if the car has not gone into gear before. To my astonishment she said once. This car now sits in the garage awaiting the Chrysler dealer to pick it up 27,997 miles. This kind of problem could easily do harmful bodily injury to a pedestrians or my wife. .

17 Transmission Not Go Into Gear problem of the 2013 Chrysler 200

Failure Date: 10/15/2014

When I shift from 1 gear to the other there is a noise and a jerk. The rpm also goes up very high when I try to accelerate as if it is not able to shift gears. It won't shift until I stop accelerating. I took it to the dealer the 1st time and was told there is a recall for the issue and a flash was sent to the car's computer. I noticed the issue was not fixed almost immediately. I took back a 2nd time and told this is typical of this model and that there is nothing they can do. I started noticing this problem with less than 50,000 miles on the car. I can imagine the problems I would have later. Then to be told there is nothing that can be done is discouraging.
