NHTSA Complaint #10663754 — 2012 CHRYSLER 200

UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN. THE ENGINE STALLS AND LOSS OF STEERING. THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AND BLINKS, AS WELL AS THE ENGINE LIGHT AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON. ACCELERATION IS ONLY AT 20% OF WHAT IT NORMALLY IS WITH INTERMITTENT THRUST OF POWER FOLLOWED BY ENGINE FAILURE. THIS LASTS FOR SEVERAL MILES THEN THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO DISAPPEAR. CHRYSLER HAS NO IDEA A OUT THIS PROBLEM WITH THERE VEHICLES AND IF U TAKE IT TO AN AUTO REPAIR PLACE. IT SAYS THE VEHICLE IS FINE WHEN THEY PLUG IT IN. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THIS TO FIND OUT WHAT TO DO AND THE INTERNET IS SWAMPED BY PEOPLE WITH THIS CAR, THIS SAME YEAR OR AROUND THE SAME YEAR... WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE. LOGIC SUGGESTS THAT CHRYSLER WONT VOLUNTARILY RECALL THIS VEHICLE FOR FINANCIAL REASONS WHICH IS UNDERSTANDABLE BUT AT THE SAME TIME I DON'T WANNA DIE BECAUSE I CANT CONTROL THIS CAR WHEN IT HAS THE ABOVE MENTIONED "EPISODE". *TR
