NHTSA Complaint #10556637 — 2012 CHRYSLER 200

WHEN PURCHASED THIS CAR, NOTICED THAT IT PULLED SEVERLY TO THE LEFT, SPOKE TO DEALER SHIP AND THEY STATED THAT IT WAS NORMAL FOR FRONT WHEEL DRIVES TO DO SO. SO I CONTINUED TO DRIVE THIS CAR BUT ALWAYS HAVING TO BE ON ALERT WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY IF CAR WAS GOING TO JERK OFF ROAD. THIS CAR HANDLES HORRIBLE! I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE AND DO NOT FEEL IF ANY CONTROL WAS LOST, THAT I WOULD BE ABLE TO REGAIN CONTROL DUE TO THIS. THE DEALERSHIP HAS DENIED THAT I HAVE EVER BROUGHT THIS UP, BUT WHEN MY BRAKES STARTED SQUEALING AROUND 7000.00 MILE I THEN BROUGHT IT UP AGAIN AND THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A FRONT END ALIGNMENT AND NEW BRAKES! OK I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR... I TOLD THEM NO, HOW COULD THAT BE. WELL SINCE THEN MY CAR HAS HAD TO HAVE THE CYLANDER REPLACED AND THEY HAVE ADDRESSED THE JERKING WITH A FRONT END ALIGNMENT WHICH BY THE WAY DID NOT DO ANYTHING. IT STILL IS HARD TO CONTROL AND COULD ONLY DO 30 MILE AN HR IN SNOW BEFORE IT WOULD LOOSE CONTROL. I HAVE MORE COMPLAINTS AND HAVE ADDRESSED CHRYSLER TO NO AVAIL. THEY JUST TELL ME ITS THE MAKE OF THE CAR AND THAT MY BRAKES SQUEALING ARE BECAUSE ASBESTOS IS NO LONGER IN BRAKES. I TOLD THEM THAT I WAS NOT BORN YESTERDAY AND HAVE DRIVEN MORE CARS THAN THIS AND NEVER HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. THEY OFFERED ME AN EXTENDED WARRENTY AND STATED THAT WAS ALL ANYONE COULD DO . I AM A VERY UNHAPPY CUSTOMER AND BECASUE I AM IN A LEASE I CAN NOT GET OUT OF THIS CAR. ONLY WHEN IT CRASHES WILL ANYONE MAYBE DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS. I AM SEEKING THE STATE ATTORNEY IN IDAHO TO SEE IF THEY CAN HELP RESOLVE THIS ISSUE . *TR
