Transmission issues: When trans down shifts from 8th to 7th gear it speeds up before down shifting to 6th while braking is a scary feeling. Also jumps out of 5th when upshifting while accelerating. Other issues when pulling in to traffic from a yield lane below 35 mph trans slips before upshifting and puts you in on coming traffic and the vehicle just hesitates which could cause someone to rear end me.

I was made aware of a recall effecting certain VIN#S in the model year 2015 Chrysler 200 line. This recall was for "contaminated, dislodged or broken parking pawl or park rod (NHTSA recall id 15V-090): ". when I search by my VIN# I do not see that mine is included but I can tell you from shortly after purchasing the vehicle until now, on a weekly basis I will pull into a parking spot/driveway and put my car in park and it will continue to roll forward or backward 1-3 feet before it actually stops moving. It seems to me that either the dealership failed to inspect this car properly before we purchased it or that that there are more VIN#S that should be evaluated for the issue. I would be happy to take my car to the dealership so that they can experience what this car does.

The transmisson lunges and delays when shifting.this does not happens all the time but does occur. Once at a stop light, when the light turned green there was no response when I stepped on the gas peddle.after I let up on the peddle and pushed it again there was a response. The delay was long enough to have cars blowing their horns behind me. I fear that the transmission could fail anytime.

On 7/19/15 I was driving my newly purchased Chrysler 200S with approximately 10300 miles. While approaching a stop light at 10mph, the car lost all power and coasted to a stop with a "service transmission" message flashing on the screen. I was not able to shift the car out of drive, and the gear selection was blinking in drive. I had to shut the car off and was stranded in the middle of a busy road for 15 minutes. I restarted the car and was able to drive it to the dealership. They replaced the tcm module and re-flashed the software. On 7/22/15 I returned to the dealership to pickup my car. While the service technician was pulling the car around, the car's transmission failed and was stuck in reverse this time, unable to shift out of reverse. They reprogrammed the valve body and performed a re-learn. I picked the car up 7/23/15 and was assured everything was fixed. While driving home from work on 7/24/15 on the interstate (75mph), the cars transmission again failed, leaving me with no throttle power on the interstate, nearly causing a collision with a semi truck. The same error messages as the first incident were flashing on the car's screen. I coasted the car to the site of the interstate and shut it off completely. After 15 minutes I restarted the car and drove it to the dealership. I am very concerned this car is going to get myself or someone else seriously injured.

I was merging onto the highway and my dashboard started blinking telling me I had to park the car. Once I parked it I could not get it to start again and had it towed to Chrysler. They said they couldn't find anything wrong with it and reset the PCM to get it to start again.

2015 Chrysler 200. Consumer writes in regards to transmission problems and other mechanical/ technical issues. The consumer experienced transmission failure. The engine light on the dash illuminated. The vehicle shifted roughly, there was a faulty transfer of power, and the vehicle surged forward unexpectedly and the engine refused to turn off. The consumer was informed the transmission software was adjusted and the problem was solved. However, two days later, the engine light illuminated again. The consumer returned to the dealer and the following day, he was informed the vehicle needed a new transmission. The vehicle was returned to the consumer four days later with the replacement transmission. However, the consumer continued to experience similar problems before the replacement. The vehicle shifted roughly and intermittently, while cruising, and when lightly pressing the gas pedal, the vehicle would seemingly hesitate only to engage after a moment of uncertainty.

Car will randomly shift from drive to neutral while driving and become completely unresponsive. Some times it allows you to pull over and put into park then drive, most times the entire car except the radio, become unresponsive and have to pull positive battery terminal to reset car. I've brought the car in for service 3 times now with same issue. Every time is getting more and more dangerous as problem is not easily reproducible and have almost been struck by cars from behind or on side of road.

My vehicle has on multiple occasions experienced a jerk in which the vehicle will accelerate with and force from myself. The 9-speed transmission will shift at such a rapid and uncomfortable speed that the car jerks at ever shift. I was braking for a stoplight last week when the gear shifted and jerked causing acceleration that almost made me rear-end the vehicle in front of me already stopped. I have already had my transmission replaced two weeks after buying the vehicle. They then replaced the computer system and am now still experiencing the same issues. I was told by the dealership that there is nothing they can do until Chrysler releases a recall that provides a computer update to fix the issue. I emailed corporate but they refuse to respond to me and no one will provide assistance on this issue. I honestly just don't want to killed in an accident because of Chrysler's' negligence.

Tuesday, June 16, while driving 60mph to work an audible ding, and the D indicator flashing and no power to the wheels, but engine running. I shifted to N then D and resumed power to the wheels. I took to dealer where they had the car for 3 days, and said they did a software update to correct. Sunday, 4:30pm, July 5th. Waiting at stop light there was an audible ding, and the dashboard lights flashed and the automatic S indicator flashing and there was no transfer of power to the wheels. I turned the shift knob to N then back to D, and the transmission engaged, but the ESC (electronic speed control), not the traction control, light on the dash came on and wouldn't shut off until I stopped the car and restarted the ignition. Monday July 6th, 11am, while driving on the highway around 60mph, the audible ding, then D indicator started flashing and there was no power to the wheels, but the motor is running. I turned the shift knob to N, then back to D and the power to the wheels engaged, but the ESC indicator stayed lit. This happened three more times within a 6 hour period as I was on a long drive out of state. Friday, July 10th, the audible ding, then all the dash lights flashing, and a message on the display"service trans stop safely shut off engine to engage park". I just got on the highway going 40mph, and barely got to the curb, and I couldn't turn the shift knob as it was locked. All the shift indicator lights were lit. I turned the car off and restarted and continued to drive. Monday, July 13th, just left the house for work and got about 2 miles going 30mph and the same scenario with the "service trans stop safely...." occurred. I'm trying to schedule another appointment for service.

The car was moving about 25 mph when dash erupted in multiple failure warnings including transmission temperature problem. Transmission locked in first gear and would not shift out of first. Pulled over and waited. Dash and transmission after several minutes returned to normal and I drove slowly home. Brought car to dealer on 29th and they updated software. Had this event occurred on the highway I often use I believe the sudden loss of transmission response and locking up in first gear would have caused my car to be in an accident.
