2013 Chrysler 200 Complaint Log

IT WAS MY FIRST TIME PURCHASING A CAR. I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO A LEGIT BUSINESS, NORTH AMERICAN AUTO GROUP. THEY ARE RIP OFFS. THEY SOLD ME A CAR WITH A CRACK WINDSHIELD AND TOLD ME I HAD TO FIX IT MYSELF BECAUSE THEY WAS NOT MAKING MUCH OFF THE CAR FOR THEM TO FIX IT, THEY TOLD ME THEY WAS UNABLE TO GIVE ME AN INSPECTION STICKER BECAUSE THEY DON'T DO THOSE, THE BRAKES STARTED TO GIVE OUT WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND I WENT BACK TO LET THEM FIX IT. THEY SAID THEY DO NOT DO BRAKES AND IT'S NOT INCLUDED IN MY WARRANTY, THAT'S UP TO ME TO GET CHANGED ON MY OWN. OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR HAS LEFT ME WITH A DENT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE TIRES ARE HORRIBLE. THE STRUTS NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND I NEED A WHEEL ALIGNMENT. ALL OF THESE THINGS WERE SUPPOSE TO BE FIXED BEFORE I EVEN PURCHASED THE CAR.

THE HEATER COIL HAS STOP WORKING ON PASSENGERS SIDE, FROM BUILD UP OF SLUDGE. IT ONLY BLOWS HOT AIR ON DRIVER SIDE, NOT ALL THE TIME. SO I DO NOT HAVE A DEFROST TO KEEP MY WINDOWS CLEAR SO I DO NOT GOOD VISIBILITY. I HAVE RESEARCHED UP ON THIS ISSUE AND A LOT OF THESE CARS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM

LETTER FROM SENATOR BLUNT ON BEHALF OF CONSTITUENT RE 2013 CHRYSLER 200 SAFETY RECALL NOTICE AND THE DURATION OF TIME IT TAKES TO PROVIDE A REMEDY. *LJ UPDATED 11/15/2017*JS

TAKATA RECALL THE AIRBAG IN THE HEADREST IS SHOWING IT IS NOT WORKING ON THE DASH. WAS TOLD IT IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST AND WILL COST $500 TO REPLACE. THIS NOTIFICATION IS ON ALL THE TIME. NOTHING HAD HAPPENED YET BUT I AM CONCERNED IT COULD IF THE AIRBAG IS NOT REPLACED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHRYSLER 200. WHEN THE CONTACT TURNED ON THE HEAT IN THE VEHICLE, ONLY THE DRIVER'S SIDE WOULD HEAT UP, NOT THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE FAILURE PREVENTED THE WINDOW ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE FROM DEFROSTING AND MADE IT HARD FOR THE CONTACT TO SEE. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT COLD AIR WAS COMING FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE VENT WHEN THE DEFOGGER WAS ACTIVATED, WHICH PREVENTED THE WINDSHIELD FROM DEFROSTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TOA A THERMOSTAT WAS CLOGGED WITH GLUE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT RESEARCHED THE FAILURE ONLINE AND FOUND THAT THE GLUE THAT WAS USED IN THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS MELTED AND CLOGGED THE DEFOGGER LINES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 51,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

BOUGHT CARE USED FROM THE DEALER 9 MONTHS AGO AND AT APPROX. 52,000 MILES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR DECELERATED TO 30MPH AND LOST ALL THROTTLE CONTROL. LUCKILY I COULD PULL OVER AND GET OUT OF TRAFFIC AND WHEN I STOPPED THE ENGINE SHUTTERED VIOLENTLY THEN CUT OFF. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN FATAL IF IT HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE. HAD TO RESTART THE CAR OVER A DOZEN TIMES TO GET IT HOME. FINALLY GOT IT TO THE SHOP AND THEY HAVE REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY AND COMPUTER. STILL AT THE SHOP AND THE ISSUE IS STILL NOT RESOLVED. THE BILL IS ALMOST $600 AND I DON'T HAVE A WORKING CAR . AFTER DOING RESEARCH I SEE THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE THAT HAPPENS TO THIS CAR. CHRYSLER REALLY NEEDS TO RECALL ALL OF THESE CARS AND REFUND ALL MONEY SO WE CAN BUY A CAR THAT RUNS AND WILL NOT POTENTIALLY KILL SOMEONE.

CAR ACTS AS IF IT DOES WANT TO ACCELERATE. MAKES A THUMPING JERKING MOTION WILL DRIVING. IT'SEEMS MOST NOTICEABLE WHILE INTERSTATE DRIVING HARD HESITATION TRYING TIME ACCELERATE. SINCE PURCHASED IN SEPTEMBER 2012 ALWAYS DRIVES SLUGGISH ON CITY HIGHWAY; THUMPING WAS NOTICEABLE-CHASED IT UP TO LEARNING A NEW VEHICLE. THUMBING GETTING HARDER AND FREQUENT....LIKE FAST "THUMP JERK, THUMB JERKING, THUMP JERK"-. I ALWAYS HAVE PLENTY OF GAS. IT HAPPENS WITH 87 OR 89 OCTANE.

DASHBOARD INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON INDICATING AIRBAG FAILURE. DEALER, FINDLAY CHRYSLER, WILSONVILLE, OR, CONFIRMED THAT DEFECT PRESENT VIA "DRIVER ACTIVE HEADREST CONTROL CIRCUIT BEING OPEN". DEALER REFUSED TO REPAIR (CAR HAS 33,403 MILES).

TAKATA RECALL. THIS HAS HAPPENED REPEATEDLY OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS. WHILE DRIVING MY CAR, MY FRONT AND REAR LIGHTS STOP WORKING. HAZARDS AND BLINKERS INCLUDED. TODAY, IT LASTED NEARLY 9 HOURS. I WENT TO O REILEYS AND AUTO ZONE TO HAVE MY CAR TESTED. I AM A MOM OF 4 GIRLS, SO THEY TOOK SYMPATHY AND TRIED TO HELP. COULDN'T FIND WHAT THE ISSUE WAS, I WAS TOLD TO GO TO A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND HAVE IT LOOKED OVER. I DON'T HAVE THE INCOME TO PAY A MECHANIC. WHILE WAITING IN LINE AT MY DAUGHTERS SCHOOL, THE RIGHT FRONT LIGHT DECIDED TO WORK AND MY BACK REAR LEFT LIGHT DECIDED TO WORK. THEN LIGHTS CAME BACK ON AND AC STOPPED BLOWING COLD AIR. MY CARS DASH BOARD REPEATEDLY KEPT LETTING ME KNOW WHICH LIGHTS WEREN'T WORKING. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NEVER CAME ON. IT WAS TERRIFYING.

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS RANDOMLY CUT ON WHILE DRIVING ON DAYS THAT THERE IS NO RAIN OR WATER PRESENT. THE AIR CONDITIONER ALSO CHANGES IT SETTINGS WHEN IT IS NOT ON "AUTO" AND MY CRUISE CONTROL WILL ONLY WORK ABOUT 30% OF THE TIME. IT WILL NOT SET TO THE SPEED I HAVE SELECTED.

I AM TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT THE PARTS REQUIRED ARE BACKLOGGED NATIONWIDE. IT HAS BEEN OVER 7 MONTHS SINCE I INITIALLY RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE.

SHOP OWNERS SAID IT IS STARTING FINE; BUT WANTED TO KEEP IT OVER THE WEEKEND TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS HAPPENING.

THE LIGHTS IN THE CAR, HEADLIGHTS, AND RADIO ALL GO OUT WHILE I'M DRIVING THEN BACK ON. THE HEADLIGHTS FLICKER. I'M ABOUT TO NEED TO HAVE THE BATTERY REPLACED NOW A THIRD TIME WITH NO HELP FROM THE DEALERSHIP. MY ENGINE LIGHT IS STILL ON AND AND IT DRIVES ROUGH AND I SMELL GAS WHEN I'M DRIVING. I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR IN AUGUST AND I'VE HAD MORE ISSUES WITH IT THAN ANY OTHER VEHICLE I'VE EVER OWNED. I'VE ONLY RECEIVED 1 RECALL FOR THE VEHICLE, I BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE THOROUGHLY CHECKED BECAUSE IT'S TOO MANY ISSUES FOR A CAR THAT'S ONLY 4 YEARS OLD.
