I have to charge the battery in this stupid piece of junk, EVERY SINGLE DAY IN COLD WEATHER!!!!! I AM SICK OF IT. I HAVE TO LEAVE THIS PIECE OF SH*T RUNNING CONSTANTLY, AFTER CHARGING. IT HAS BEEN INTO THE CHRYSLER DEALER 3 TIMES. I HAVE HAD TO GET A PORTABLE BATTERY CHARGER IN ORDER TO START AND DRIVE MY CAR. I HAVE HAD THE BATTERY REPLACED 3 TIMES. IN BELOW FREEZING THIS CAR WILL ABSOLUTELY NOT START!!!!! I HATE IT, BUT I CANNOT AFFORD ANOTHER CAR. I NOW HAVE A LITTLE OVER 6700 MILES ON IT. SO YOU TELL ME. WTF!!!!! I AM FURIOUS. I LIVE IN WESTERN NEW YORK. IT IS 20 DEGREES TODAY. NO START. I WANT SOMETHING DONE. CHRYSLER IS AMBIVILENT. I WILL NEVER GET ANOTHER CHRYSLER CAR EVER AGAIN. AND, ON TOP OF IT, BECAUSE I AM A WOMAN, I AM ALWAYS ASKED, "DID YOU LEAVE SOMETHING ON?" CHRYSLER CAN TAKE A SH*T FOR ALL I CARE. IT IS CHRISTMAS TIME AND I HAVE GOT TO BE SCARED TO GO ANYWHERE, HENCE THE CAR WON'T START. THERE HAVE BEEN TOW TRUCKS HERE SO MANY TIMES, I SHOULD BUY ONE. AM I A MAD WHITE WOMAN? YOU BET YOUR ASS!!!!!! AND, RESERVE YOUR RIGHT TO REMOVE MY COLORFUL METAPHORES!!!!!!!!!
Update from Jan 4, 2017: Update: It is January 4, 2017 and my 2013 Chrysler 200, would not start, again. The temp being 22°F and has had to be charged 3 times, to start, in below 30° F since November. I was told, by Cecconi Chrysler service, that, (quote)" because the car is completely computerized, I HAVE to start it AND drive it every single day, in below freezing weather." (unquote) Where does Chrysler stand on this? Does Chrysler even know about this ?Are there flying monkeys?? I do believe there are. Will my car start tomorrow? Who knows? Will the monkeys fly by again? I am sure. (to add a single, solitary, positive to my rants) I love my car. I just want it to start EVERY day.

It originally started doing this, long crank or sometimes won't crank, at 20000 miles but was only doing it once every couple weeks and I thought maybe I was getting bad gas. But it became more frequent and now it is in the shop for the fifth time for this issue. First they said they can't duplicate it, then they said it's the way I start and drive the car, then they said it was software updates. Now they don't know. But it's still doing just as bad as ever and still hasn't gotten fixed. Sounds like an old jalopy when you start it.

Was driving down a highway in the rain with my son just a few days after my husband passed away and the car just shut down lights and all. A stranger cane and pushed out off the road. Called Chrysler and they say no known issue. Extended warranty tells me send to dealer I do but they tell me for $600 they have to pull the engine to diagnose and if not covered I'm responsible to pay to put back together but if I want a new 200 they have fun. FU! Call Chrysler no help so I have a 2013 I still owe 5k on and doesn't work and another car payment cause Nissan ends up talking me into a new car and gouged me because I was desperate for a car and recently widowed. 😡
