Gator Chrysler service manager roger called this dealership and agreed to give me a new tire with road hazard warranty after I got a nail in my tires on his lot. The invoices will show this. The other tire they patched and roger after getting on phone with tire kingdom requested this come back to him. These original 4 tires, including the patched ones had matching dot numbers. The new one paid for by roger of gator chrylser melbourne, fl had an inmatched dot number, being from a new batch, also lesser tread wear compared to other 3. tire kingdom since has seen my car multiple times for tire punctures. I was told the car guys here are connected and nothing is for free. I was told they are pawns following someones directive. This is disturbing as it involves local organized crime, as even the police could not get away with this action legally. I saved tge patched tire and all records. Tire kingdom repeatedly with gator Chrysler of melbourne, fl sabotaged my car, tires since

My airbag light stays on permanently. It used to come on intermittently. I have had the problem fixed twice by a Chrysler repair facility. I was told not to worry it's just a wiring harness problem. I'm scared because I've seen airbag recalls and I don't know why my car hasn't been recalled yet. My car also seems to be jerking more frequently. It jerks sometimes when I'm accelerating. I was told this was normal because of the type of engine. I inquired about this not long after I bought the car in 2015. The jerking seems to be getting worse. My check engine light stays on. I can provide info that my airbag sensor problem was fixed twice.

Takata recall, my Chrysler 200 2015 is having issues where it seems like it's stuck in neutral and doesn't want to accelerate. My car started rumbling pretty intensely I don't even have 80,000 miles on my car and it says my VIN number doesn't match any recalls but everything I've looked up it sounds the same recall the other Chrysler 200 2015 cars had as well. How do I go about getting this fixed?? I was on the freeway and it happened randomly when I went to switch lanes.

The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that the tire pressure monitoring system, air bag, and check engine warning indicators flashed. In addition, the key fob was not being recognized with the vehicle. The key fob and battery were changed, but the engine continued to lose power and failed to start. Also, the instrument panel/cluster shorted out. The vehicle was towed to bradshaw Chrysler Jeep (1953 554 main St, Oakville, ct 06779, 1-(860) 274-8834) for diagnostic testing. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted. The failure mileage was not available.

On October 10th and 12th my car slowly started shutting down while driving and gave an error message to "shift to P and press start" I did this and the car started up again and continued to run. On October 15th on my drive to work this happened again, thank goodness I was on a side street so I could pull over to get the car started again. It started after a few tries and I made it back home but the car completely died in my driveway. Nothing worked not even the unlock buttons for the passenger doors. I take a major interstate to work and could have been seriously hurt had I made it that far this morning or hurt others. Somebody needs to do something about this, I have read plenty of other complaints about the same model of car doing this exact same thing. My car only has approximately 50,000 miles on it.

Takata recall my vehicle shut down on me last night while driving for the umpteenth time since I've had it. I've contacted Chrysler but of course they act as if they know nothing. I got serviced for two recalls one in 2016and the other 2017 and neither have remedied the issue. There is no code, no lights come on or anything. The only warning warning that I get is for me to put it in park in order to restart it. I'll never purchase another Chrysler in my life.

Vehicle transmission does not function correctly. Severe jerking movements upon acceleration and breaking. Vehicle is very unsafe to drive in situations that require left or right hand turns into traffic. Extremely unreliable acceleration! vehicle will lose power in middle of turn with oncoming traffic. Several near misses when attempting to make a left-hand turn in multi-lane highways. Simply put, I do not feel safe driving this vehicle. Dealership has serviced this vehicle multiple times with no resolution. This issue is an everyday occurrence.

Three times in the last two weeks my car has turned off completely while driving. Each time it has happened as I was braking. Took several minutes to get the car re-started and left me stranded dangerously in the middle of the road. There has already been a recall for this exact issue which my car has been serviced for and yet it is still happening.

This vehicle when I purchased it has been having multiple problems. The transmission has been slipping into neutral while I am driving at least twice a week. I have to pull over cut the vehicle off and re start it. Also there's always issues while I try and start the vehicle. I have taken it to five different mechanics to fix the problem. New alternator, new battery, five different diagnostics made. The extended warranty mentions that I need to bring it to the dealer. Which I have twice. They re set the software which did not fix the problem. It still slips into neutral. Cottman transmission did a diagnostic that I paid for out of pocket. They informed me that this problem and the codes that came up are manufacturing issues. Associated with bad electrical wiring as well as a bad set up for the transmission. Also the same model make and year for this vehicle there was a re call for the same exact problem and code. The extended warranty company covers these problems but told me to bring it to Chrysler to fix. Chrysler has checked my vehicle twice and re set the system for the light to come off. Of coarse the problem was not resolved. Now everyone is still pointing the fingers at each other. This has been going on for over a year. My factory warranty should fix it under the power train warranty also silverrock should fix it under my extended warranty contract. There has been no resolution. I have to consistently take off work to maintainance this car. Please help.

The first incident of the car stalling occurred in a parking lot on 8/18/18, it just shut off while still in gear. I put it in park and restarted it and I was able to continue driving. Later that same day, I was driving home, thankfully on a quiet road. It started to sputter and shut off again while still in gear. Somehow I was able to pull to the shoulder of the road. This time, I could not get it restarted, so I called my roadside assistance who towed the car to the place I purchased it. They changed the spark plugs and said they were oxidized and were probably the cause. I picked up the car on 8/21/18 and it drove ok. The next day, I was driving home and as I turned the corner onto a busier road, it stalled again while still in gear. I could not get it to restart at all. This was quite scary even though I was over as far to the right side of the road as I could be with my hazard lights on. I called roadside assistance again and I received a text that they would be there in less than 45 minutes, and then another stating they would be there in less than 20 minutes. The sheriff that showed up said she wasn't waiting around for 75 minutes and forced me to have my car towed by the county tow company as she said it would be faster. My tow company showed up less than 2 minutes after theirs did, but I was told too bad and they took my car to impound. I had to come up with almost $300 to get my car out and then I called my roadside and they switched me over to Chrysler roadside who was able to tow the car to the nearest Chrysler dealer, where it now sits. I told them I am afraid to drive this car now and I want it fixed. I am thinking it is this is the electrical system recall R24
