NHTSA Complaint #10475139 — 2012 CHRYSLER 200

THE CAR WILL ALMOST STALL, RANDOMLY, WHEN STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN OR LIGHT. IT HAS NOW STARTED TO ACT LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL WHEN WE START IT. THE CAR HESITATES, RANDOMLY, WHEN YOU GO TO ACCELERATE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO US MANY TIMES. ENTERING THE INTERSTATE IT ACTS LIKE IT STUMBLES BEFORE IT WILL RESPOND. WE HAVE PULLED OUT ONTO A BUSY STREET WHERE ACCELERATION IS A NECESSITY AND THE CAR HESITATES AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. MOST RECENTLY, SWITCHING LANES ON THE INTERSTATE WE LIFTED OUR FOOT OFF ACCL. TO ALLOW A CAR TO PASS US WHEN WE WENT TO ACCELERATE AGAIN THE CAR WOULD NOT RESPOND, A CAR CAME UP ON US IN OUR LANE AND ALMOST REAR ENDED US. (THIS WAS ON THE WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE PROBLEM) THE DEALER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND NOTHING WAS RECORDED ON THE COMPUTER. MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE ON CHRYSLER 200 FORUMS. WE HAVE HAD A BLK BOX INSTALLED AND NO FEED BACK FROM DEALER WAS PROVIDED EVEN WHEN REQUESTED IN WRITING AND VERBALLY. WE HAVE AN ATTORNEY, CHRYSLER HAS PUT A LOW VALUE ON THE COMPLAINT AND WE ARE NOT GOING TO SETTLE CASE AT THIS TIME. I HOPE WE DO NOT HAVE AN ACCIDENT WHILE COLLECTING DATA! *TR *JS
