I took my 2016 Chrysler and it had 66,000 miles and they told me that the oil cooler was out and it was a known repair to the vehicle and I've been smelling like oil burning through the air vents on the car and they told me that they wouldn't cover it but I asked him I said well you say you repair these and it's unknown problem with these cars that the oil cooler fails and it leaks in the valley pan underneath the engine so you may not see the league for an extended period and you may not know it's even leaking until it builds up so heavy underneath that valley P.M. under the engine and you may be completely out of oil in the car running without oil getting bad gas mileage my car is a 2016 Chrysler 200 S V6 3.6

My 200 vehicle showed an air bag light 6 months after purchase, about may, 2016. Then the vehicle was not recalled so I ignored it. The oil change at the dealer after may, 2016 date failed to address the light. It remains on to this date. Repair on tire that showed a light was refused on June 7, 2017. This tire light remains a problem. Now, the vehicle will not go uphill without stalling and will not run when it rains. The fuel seems to be blocked because I keep pumping the gas to go uphill after it stalls. The car cuts off when I make left or right turns. Now, I warm the vehicle for 10 minutes to show the engine is ready. The engine light has come on for the past 6 months. I failed emission testing in Sept. 2019. The tune up done this month did not help. The engine light and other matters caused the emission testing to fail. My complaint is directed to the gas problem, air bags, electrical dashboard problem for the past year along with the tire light.

When I'm driving the car shuts off and also when I turn the corner or hit a bump the buzzer goes off and then it shuts down also it has a very poor gas mileage and I get a tournament the shock from the car while I touch it. When I am driving at a normal rate of speed or if I go to take off it will shut off if I'm in the passing lane for unknown reasons it shuts off when I touch the brakes or if I'm sitting waiting for light it makes a humming noise. All of this happens only when the car is in motion this started back in February 2018 and still continues to this date today's date is May 13, 2019

"takata recall" I purchased this vehicle in July 2016. In November 2017, the vehicle began stalling and shutting off completely while I was driving. It loses power and a the screen tells me to shift to P to start vehicle. Sometimes it would start right away, other times it would take several tries for it to restart. There was no specific time when it would occur. I could just be pulling out of parking space or coming off the expressway after driving 30 miles or so. It would happen when I was turning left, right or going straight. I took the car in and was told that I needed a throttle service that, of course, was not covered under my warranty. They said that they "recommend" a throttle service every 25,000 to 30,000 miles. I was at 38,000 miles. A recommended service should not cause your vehicle to completely cut off while driving. So, I paid $184 for the throttle service. Three days later, the vehicle started jerking terribly while I was driving, parking, reversing, etc. The RPM dial would spike up to 3.5 or so, but it was constantly jerking while driving. It felt like I was driving over a large graveled road the entire time I was driving. I took the car back in to the dealer and was initially told that it was my transmission which was covered under my extended power train warranty. However, after I left the vehicle, I was called and told that it was not my transmission, but it was a bad coil and spark plug. This, of course, was not covered by my warranty. I was charged $443 for this. I am currently waiting to see what goes wrong next. As I have only had it from the dealership for 2 days now.

24,000 miles bought 8 months ago while entering the highway which traffic turned out to be backed up and stop and go, doing 37 mph from the access road merging into traffic at tat speed before the slow down my car shut off mid merge(almost as if it restarted like a computer) first there was a light and an airbag failure message then the emergency brake light came on (as if I had used the parking brake) then the tire pressure light followed by engine light the wheel did not lock up and as I had hit traffic I was luckily able to drift over to the side of the highway narrowly avoiding being hit by the cars behind me all lights except the engine light went off after about 30 seconds I had to try twice but I was as able to restart the car by the next morning the engine light had gone away I have since taken the car into the dealer and they have no idea what caused it or if it could happen again, I am waiting to hear from Chrysler but I am not sure they are taking this a serious as I am had it not bee for the traffic I could have been injured or worse
