2016 CHRYSLER 200 Power Train Problems

I took my car to Carman Dodge Chrylser Dealer located 196 s Dupont hwy , new castle de, 19720. My car was scheduled for a recall repair u90 and power train software update. I took my car in 4-10-25 and it stayed overnight until 4-11-25. When receiving my car I was presented with new issues that caused a no bus code and radio died. My car had no internal issues prior to taking my car to the dealer for recall repairs. I have all the documentation and employees names for the service department. I was told by my advisor Lance Grey and supervisor Joseph Troboletti that there is nothing else they can do. Other than these new problems that occurred just so happened to be coincidental. And in order to get things replace I would have to wait until July and I may be eligible for a small discount on the parts. So that means I would have to wait 3 months to get repairs and drive a car with my children with no working windows , radio and etc.

The transmission jumped into neutral while going 65mph also indicating “service park brake” and “service transmission”. The vehicle slowing down almost caused another vehicle to rear end me as I was looking for a safe place to try and pull over. No one has inspected properly these vehicles despite numerous customer complaints of the same nature. The car had no lights on but afterwards the power train light came on.

The contact owns a 2016 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle inadvertently lost motive power. The contact was able to coast to the shoulder of the roadway, where the vehicle failed to restart. After jumpstarting the vehicle, the vehicle returned to normal functionality, but the failure became a regular occurrence. Several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but did not assist. The failure mileage was 135,000.

Car is stalling for unknown reason without any warning or light appearing on dash. Feeling unsafe especially when driving on the highway because I never know when it will happen. Has been happening every day for the past 3 days. Happened in the beginning after a couple months of having the car and the first time I took it in, they couldn't find anything wrong or replicate the problem.

About 2 weeks ago , my car began malfunctioning and randomly shutting off while driving. The car gives no indication that there is an issue before hand which is dangerous. It has happened to me while entering the freeway and while on regular streets. In addition, when this happens, my gearshift somehow gets stuck which makes me unable to move the car. Sometimes I cannot turn the car off, it would get stuck running. The shift would malfunction illuminating other shifts even though it is stuck. This issue has happened to me again in the wee hours of this morning at 3am on a dark road. I feared for me life… I see that this is an ongoing issue in many complaints that I see but there has been no resolve from the manufacturer. Please help.

The Chrysler 200's engine keeps suddenly shutting off while driving, mainly while making turns on streets and freeway on/off ramps. There are no warning lights, sounds, or visual cues to indicate any sort of problem. Sometimes the vehicle may just stall, most other times it just turns off and asks that I switch the shifter to park to then turn the vehicle back on. This issue is very concerning as it’s dangerous for the vehicle to shut down in traffic and could prove fatal.

WHEN I ACCELERATE FROM A STOP SIGN OR FROM A STOPPED POSITION THE VECHICLE WILL REV HIGH AND NOT PICK UP SPEED. IT WILL STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION OR AS I AM DRIVING. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN MARCH 2016. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS BEING STARTED, THE CAR ENGINE AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FLICKERS UNCONTROLLABLY. ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD GOES OFF AND ON THE DIALS GOES UP AND DOWN. THE ENGINE SHACKS AS IT WOULD LIKE TO START BUT DOESN'T. IT WOULD TAKE UP TO 2 TO 3 TIMES TO RESTART THE CAR TO WORK PROPERLY. RECENTLY APRIL 2, 2021, AS I WAS DRIVING MAJORITY OF THE LIGHTS CAME ON, TRANSMISSION, PARKING BRAKE, ABS LIGHTS CAME ON. THE POWER STEERING IS NOT FULLY FUNCTIONAL AND THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT REACTING NORMALLY. AS I ACCELERATE DURING TGIS TIME THE TRACTION CONTROL SYMBOL FLASHES AND YHE CAR HAS DIFFICULTY PICKING UP SPEED. THE CAR HAS A INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TIME ACCELERATING. IF I WERE TO ACCELERATE TOO QUICKLY THE VEHICLE WILL REV HIGH AND THE FEARS WILL NOT CATCH PROPERLY.

THE VEHICLE WAS DISABLES AND THE IGNITION WOULD NOT START THE CAR UNTIL AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES AND MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS. THIS HAS OCCURRED A TOTAL OF 5 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS IF IT OCCURRED WHILE I'M ON THE FREEWAY OR IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION.

I PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW OFF THE DEALERSHIP SHOWROOM IN SUMMER OF 2017. A COUPLE DAYS AFTER HAVING IT, I WAS DRIVING DOWN A STREET IN MY HOMETOWN AND THE VEHICLE JUST SHUT COMPLETELY OFF. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC AND BEGAN TO PANIC BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY 'FIXED' THE ISSUE. SHORTLY AFTER, WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT, THE CAR SHUT OFF AGAIN IN TRAFFIC AND TOOK A WHILE TO RESTART. EVERYTHING IN THE VEHICLE TURNS OFF. I AGAIN TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY 'FIXED' THE ISSUE. HERE WE ARE JUST LAST WEEK, 08/15/2020 AND I'M DRIVING ON A MAJOR THRU WAY AND THE VEHICLE CUTS OFF AGAIN. THERE HAVE NEVER BEEN ANY WARNING SIGNS, LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD/ REASON FOR ME TO BELIEVE SOMETHING WAS WRONG. MY VEHICLE BARELY HAS 50K MILES. AFTER LOOKING UP MY VIN TO SEE IF THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL (THERE ISN'T), I DID NOTICE THAT THE YEAR PRIOR (2015) SAME MAKE AND MODEL HAVE A RECALL FOR THE SAME ELECTRICAL ISSUE I'VE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT. THIS MATTER IS SERIOUS AS THE CARS TURNS OFF UNEXPECTEDLY AND COULD CAUSE A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT. I WILL UPLOAD MY PAPER WORK FROM THE DEALERSHIP THE FIRST 2X. I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE VEHICLE SINCE 8/15/20 AS I'M AFRAID THAT SOMEONE WILL GET HURT. I'VE CALLED TO REPORT THE ISSUE AT THE 888 NUMBER LISTED BUT THE PHONE JUST HANGS UP.

TRANSMISSION IS ROUGH AND UNPREDICTABLE. EACH SHIFT AND DOWNSHIFT IS FELT IN THE THROTTLE(FEELS LIKE ENGINE BRAKING). TRANSMISSION OFTEN CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO ACCELERATE OR DECELERATE UNINTENTIONALLY. SHIFTING GEARS SEEMS TO TAKE LONGER THAN IT SHOULD. TRANSMISSION WON'T DOWNSHIFT SOMETIMES WHEN APPROPRIATE THROTTLE IS GIVEN. BRAKING IS JERKY DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION ROUGH DOWN SHIFTING. CITY DRIVING IN THIS CAR IS UNCOMFORTABLE AND DANGEROUS DUE TO ALL THE ISSUES LISTED ABOVE.

CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE STARTING HARD AND ROUGH, ELECTRICAL ISSUES AND FRONT PASSENGER DOOR SHUTTING HARD. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE HAD MULTIPLE FAILURES INCLUDING THE PARKING BRAKE ENGAGING ON IT'S OWN, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL STICKING, WIRING SYSTEMS, THE AIR CONDITIONER AND TRANSMISSION RUPTURED. THE POWERTRAIN, CONTROL MODULE, COMPRESSOR, ETC CONDENSER WAS LOCKED. THE VEHICLE STARTS HARD. THERE WAS A KNOCKING NOISE ON START UP. THE TIRE CAME OFF THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING. WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO LURCH FORWARD. THE LOWER BALL JOINT FAILED. THERE WAS BODY A RIM DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. THE REPAIR SHOP FAILED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE PROPERLY. *JS

VEHICLE HAS A HARD TIME CHANGING GEARS. WHEN SPEEDING UP VEHICLE JERKS HARD AND MAKES LOUD NOICE IN TRANMISSION AREA. PASSENGERS HAVE NOTICED HOW IT STRUGGLES TO CHANGE GEARS. HAVE TAKEN INTO TO DEALER BUT THEY SAY THEY CAN NOT REPLICATE PROBLEM. IT ALSO SEEMS TO SURGE RANDOMLY WHEN COMING TO A STOP. AFRAID I'LL HIT CAR IN FRONT OF ME. ALSO DEALER NOT ABLE TO REPAIR.

A FEW TIMES PULLING OUT INTO THE TRAFFIC THE CAR WOULD FAIL TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. ALSO, SOME TIMES WHILE DRIVING THE CAR SEEMS AS IF ITS DYING OR LOOSING POWER. IT IS ALSO RATTLING WHEN I CRANK IT UP. THE OTHER THING IS THAT THE TRANSMISSION WHILE ACCELERATING SEEMS TO TAKE A WHILE TO SWITCH GEARS AND THEN THE CAR JERKS REALLY HARD WHEN IT FINALLY SHIFT GEARS. I'VE TAKEN IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY JUST SAID THAT THEY CHECKED IT AND CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG BUT THAT THEY HAVE HAD SIMILAR COMPLAINTS BUT THAT "ITS JUST THE FACT THAT THE CAR IS A 4 CYLINDER." IT'S VERY SCARY PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC.

Mileage: 5,000

TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AND CAN'T SEEM TO GET INTO GEAR WHILE DRIVING AND GETTING TO FREEWAY SPEEDS CAN'T REACH A MAX OF 55MPH. HAVE HAD THE CAR COMPLETELY STALL OUT ON THE FREEWAY AND PUT ITSELF INTO "NEAUTRAL" WHILE AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. MAINTENANCE AIRBAG LIGHTS FREQUENTLY COMING ON. CHRYSLER CAN'T SEEM TO FIND A FIX TO THE ISSUE ON WHY THIS CAR IS DOING WHAT IT HAS BEEN. THEY KEEP SAYING ITHE ISSUE IS FIXED WHEN PUBLICLY THERE IS NO REAL FIX TO THE ISSUE AND THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX THE RE ACCRUING PROBLEM. LITTLE TO SAY, I AM DEATHLY AFRAID OF DRIVING THIS VEHICLE EVEN DOWN THE STREET TO MY LOCAL GROCERY STORE. I WORK TOO HARD AND PAY TO MUCH FOR MY FIRST BRAND NEW CAR TO BE HAVING ISSUES LIKE THESE. I REALLY WISH CHRYSLER WOULD RECALL ALL OF THESE VEHICLES ALREADY BEFORE SOMEONE ENDS UP LOOSING A LIFE OVER A FAULTY LEMON OF A VEHICLE.

AS I TRAVEL DOWN THE HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 50 TO 60 MILE AN HOUR SOMETIME THE CAR JAKE'S REAL HARD INTO GEAR AND ALSO WHEN I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND TAKE OFF AGAIN GOING ABOUT 5 TO 10 MPH IT SHIFTS HARD AGAIN.

THEY COULD NOT RECREATE NOR CAN TELL ME FOR SURE WHAT CAUSED THE FAILURE

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. .

VEHICLE LOST POWER WHILE PULLING INTO TRAFFIC. 2016 CHRYSLER 200 S WITH 2614 MILES...ENGINE WAS WARM. I STEPPED ON THE GAS AND LOST ALL POWER (ELECTRICAL), FOLLOWED BY ENGINE STALL BEHAVIOR, POWER LOSS, STALL BEHAVIOR, THEN TRANSMISSION KNOB LIGHT FLASHES "D" AND INSTRUMENT CLUSTER SAYS TO SELECT GEAR AGAIN. WAS NEARLY REAR ENDED AND/OR T-BONED BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC. DEALER PERFORMED 4 FLASH UPDATES TODAY.

BOUGHT THIS 2016 CHRYSLER 200 S 4 CYCLINDER IN JULY 2016 WITH ONLY 4900 MILES ON IT. CAR WAS A DEALER PROGRAM CAR STILL UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY. TODAY, 8/22/2016 AT 6157 MILES THE CAR STALLED WHILE MY TEENAGE SONS (3 OF THEM) WERE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS TO SCHOOL (THIS IS THE CAR THEY DRIVE EVERYDAY). THE CAR STALLED WHILE DRIVING THREE SEPARATE TIMES LOSING ALL POWER WITH A MESSAGE IN THE DASH READING "SHIFT TO P". ONCE SHIFTED TO PARK THE CAR DID START BUT ONLY AFTER MAKING AN ODD NOISE WHILE PUSHING IN THE IGNITION BUTTON. NEEDLESS TO SAY THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO HAVE A CAR LOSE POWER WHILE ON THE ROAD ESPECIALLY WITH NEW TEENAGE DRIVERS. BOUGHT THIS CAR IN LARGE PART BECAUSE OF ITS SAFETY RATINGS BUT THIS CLEARLY IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF SAFE. I WILL TAKE TO DEALER IN THE MORNING TO SEE WHAT THEY SAY. LOTS OF OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT SAME ISSUE ALTHOUGH MOST SEEM TO BE WITH THE 2015 NOT 2016. NONETHELESS, HOW CAN ONE FEEL SAFE AGAIN PUTTING THEIR CHILDREN BEHIND THE WHEEL? NO IDEA WHAT CAUSED THIS ISSUE. THE DRIVETRAIN DOES NOT SHIFT SMOOTHLY EITHER PARTICULARLY WHEN TRANSITIONING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE WHEN COMING TO COMPLETE STOP.

I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I STEPPED ON THE ACCELERATOR TO GO AND COULD NOT MOVE!! THE CAR REFUSED TO SHIFT! I LOOKED DOWN TO CHECK AND MAKE SURE IT WAS IN DRIVE AND IT WAS! I WAS NEARLY REAR ENDED, PEOPLE HAD TO DRIVE AROUND ME. IT TOOK AROUND 20 TO 30 SECONDS FOR MY VEHICLE TO SHIFT INTO GEAR AND MOVE FORWARD. WHILE TRYING TO MOVE FORWARD IT REVVED TO AROUND 5,000 RPM. I HAVE A CHILD WITH ME. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF SOMEONE REAR ENDED US? I KNOW CHRYSLER HAS NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSIONS TO THESE VEHICLES AND I AM SORRY BUT THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ON THE ROAD WITH PROBLEMS LIKE THIS!!

THE GEAR SHIFT CAN BE EASILY AND ACCIDENTALLY KNOCKED INTO REVERSE PARK OR NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING AND WJRHOUT NEEDING TO APPLY BRAKE. I WAS DRIVING AND MY CELLPHONE SLID OUT OF THE CELLPHONE MOUNT AND HIT THE KNOB AND THREW MY INTO PARK WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT HIGH 60 MPH I WAS FAST ENOUGH TO MOVE IT BACK OVER TO DRIVE BUT IT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT OR DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. THIS TYPE OF THING HAS HAPPENED ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION I ACCIDENTALLY PUT IT IN REVERSE WHILE DRIVING THINKING I WAS MOVING THE FAN KNOB DOWN AT NIGHT WHILE DRIVING. ALSO MY FRIENDS SON PUT MY CAR INTO PARK WHILE ADJUSTING THE TEMPERATURE AS WELL. YOU SHOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO MOVE THE GEARS SO EASILY OR IN REVERSE OR PARK WITHOUT BRAKE OR PUSHING THE KNOB DOWN OR SOMETHING TERRIBLY UNSAFE!! ALL OF THE TIMES THIS HAS OCCURRED I WAS DRIVING ALSO THERE GAVE BEEN TIMES I THOUGHT MY CAR WAS IN PARK BUT WAS NOT WAS ACTUALLY IN REVERSE VERY DANGEROUS

THEREALLY IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WITH THIS CAR. MY CAR JERKS EVERYDAY WHEN SHIFTING FROM PARK TO DRIVE AND IT HESITATES. I TOOK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE AND WAS TOLD IT IS SUPPOSED TO DRIVE LIKE THAT UNTIL THE CAR IS ADJUSTED TO MY DRIVING STYLE. ALSO, ONEW DAY I WAS DRIVING AND OUT OF NOWHERE IN LOSE TOTAL POWER IN THE CAR. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. I HAVE A 7 YEAR OLD WHO RIDES WITH ME EVERYDAY. THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE.

I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR IN MARCH OF 2016 AND HAS BEEN IN DEALERSHIP OVER 9 TIMES ALREADY FOR THE ALIGNMENT, TIRES ALREADY GOING BALD AND THE TRANSMISSION. I WAS DRIVING ONE DAY DOWN A STREET THAT HAS A 55MPH SPEED LIMIT AND THE CAR JUST DIED AND LOST ALL POWER IT WOULDNT GO AT ALL SO I HAD TO PULL OVER AND RESTART THE VEHICLE FINALLY IT WENT THEN EVER SINCE THEN THE CAR SHIFTS VERY ROUGH AND JERKS YOU AND THE DEALERSHIPS KEEP TELLING ME THAT ITS THE WAY THE CAR IS SUPPOSED TO DRIVE BUT I KNOW ITS NOT ALSO THE SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT CAME BUT THE DEALER SAYS THAT CODES WERE THERE TO SHOW WHICH WAS ODD TO ME ALSO ANOTHER ISSUE WITH THIS CAR IS SOMETIMES WHEN I PUT IT IN DRIVE,REVERSE ETC THE ELECTRONIC EBRAKE JUST COMES WHICH ALMOST HAD ME HIT A FEW TIMES NOW I HAVE HAD THIS CAR 3 MONTHS NOW AND ITS IN THE SHOP MORE THAN I CAN DRIVE. I WOULD SAY THIS CAR IS UNSAFE AND HIGHLY ADVISE NOT TO BUY
