- Myrtle Beach, SC, USA

Takata recall I started to notice that the vehicle would jerk when switching gears and would almost feel like it ran into a wall soon after I purchased it. Here recently it has happened a lot more frequently. I have taken the car to the dealer 3 separate times to see what the problem is. I was told they were unable to see the problem while they drove the vehicle so was unable to fix it. If I was able to make the problem happen I would as it happens sporadically!

- Jamestown, NY, USA

My original transmission was replace once, approx. (1) year after purchase. Since then there have been several revisits with the dealer to check the transmission for erratic shifting and free wheeling down hills. They have upgraded the firmware because they had issues that I have been experiencing. When travel at 25 mph the transmission will vibrate when shifting from 4th to 5th and back to 4th. When I come to a hill at 25 mph in 5th gear, it will coast then upshift to 6th (with vibrations). At 59 mph in 8th gear the car vibrates up to approx. 63 mph. Chrysler customer assistance center were working with me until I expressed I need something to be done (not feeling safe in this car), they now are stating (frank-customer service supervisor) that because the dealer who inspected the vehicle (did not allow me to ride with him when he did a test drive), cannot find anything wrong, the case will be closed. I received a communication stating that the case is closed as of 6/20/16. It is very apparent that Chrysler is now in a damage control since I asked to speak with a "Chrysler representative", frank suggested that I would not be allowed to speak to him because they do not deem the issue to warrant such a conversation. He also suggested that if I wanted a second opinion from another dealer, I would have to pay for the service cost. Frank also wanted to know who told me about the "Chrysler representative"? I do not feel safe driving a car that vibrates and free wheels at low speeds and high speeds. It is very obvious there is an issue and Chrysler wants me to go away.

There have been 6 recalls on this vehicle and only 2 have been corrected by my dealership. They are waiting for parts to correct the others. The power steering part has been recalled since November 2015, and they are still waiting to fix it. I am the sole driver in my household with a family and only this car. I cannot return it, I can not trade it in I owe more than its worth. My credit is also shot.

"takata recall" on or about 8/25/15, I purchased w/warranty a 2015 Chrysler 200 (used). The car shut down while @ a traffic light. On or about 10/11/15. Towed to fulton Dodge, Jeep, Chrysler, sacto. Ca. for "recall repairs" I experienced the car making forward jerking motions when downshifting & coming to a stop on numerous occasions, again on or about Nov. 2015, I were at a local grocery store when the car would not start, and was towed to elk grove Dodge, Jeep Chrysler for further diagnostic and repairs. The car after several weeks driving started jerking upon downshifting and would skip the #2 gear. The vehicle in question was brought back into elk grove Dodge, Jeep Chrysler for further transmission & software repairs on or about Dec. 2015. Several letters and emails had been written to Chrysler corporation complaining about the matter. A "lemon law" complaint had been filed March 2016, settled on or about 4/13/16 with fca., buying back the Chrysler, and reimbursement of payments made, except reimbursement for keeping the car insured, I've yet to be notified when and where to return the "coffin" Chrysler. My life has been in jeopardy from day of purchase.

- Sacramento, CA, USA

Takata recall well I guess I'll join in with the rest. My 200 is just about a year old. I have just a little over 10,000 miles on it. Been back to dealer twice with same problem. Speeds up when braking at about 35 mph. Then when accelerating engine dies and vehicle slows down....then speeds up. 1st time they downloaded an update... 2nd time they said nothing wrong that they could find. (according to diagnostic codes) I like my car.. let me know when they finally get a fix for this. This is on rural country roads mountainous and hilly. Itbis dangerous.

- Willoughby, OH, USA

I have recall notice 15V-470 in which I have contacted gladstone Dodge several times and I'm being told that "the power distribution center electrical connector" is unavailable for order. I have been working on this issue since I received the notice and have contacted gladstone Dodge on 2/2/16/ 2/12/16, and now again on 4/4/16. The dealership is not able to take names and contact customers because they don't know when to expect to be able to order the parts

- Platte City, MO, USA

The transmission went out the first day I leased the vehicle (3/27/2015). The transmission shifts very rough up and down. It will also jump gears on the downshift and propel the car. The transmission was replaced once. The issues are still present and it has stopped in the middle of traffic as a result of these issues just last week. A control module was replaced however, the other listed issues still exist.

- Detroit, MI, USA

I purchased the car and not 6 months later they did a recall on it. After this the car would always completely skip second gear when downshifting. So bad that it shutters back and forth when stopping, which startles me and sometimes its hard to run into people or objects. I have made several attempts to have Chrysler fix the problem but they tell me it's fine. The service people all agree that it's a huge problem but Chrysler continues to cover this up. When slowing down to a slow roll, a yield, and turning left or right, the car shifts erratically. The car will be in 3rd gear, when it's supposed to be in second gear but it won't downshift, the car will literally propel you when there is a slight acceleration of the gas pedal because it shifts into first like you're in a race car. At this point it's hard to maintain being in the lane you're trying to be in. Not only is this a huge safety concern but also nobody wants to ride in my new car because the ride is so rough. It's appointing and absolutely unethical the way Chrysler is treating me. I bought this car with money I saved from deploying to afghanistan and all for nothing. When I think about trading the car in, Chrysler dealerships tell me that they have to give me even less money for the car because it shifts how it does even though Chrysler says it's shifting as intended. I've been dealing with this extremely erratic shifting for a year now. Also when you're slowing down to a stop and don't stop completely the car will do a burnout at times, obviously launching you forward. In the snow and ice the car will downshift violently and causing the car to start sliding down hills. All these issues happen at low speeds from 2-5 mph.

- Mishawaka, IN, USA
