NHTSA Complaint #10925602 — 2014 CHRYSLER 200

ON MY WAY HOME I WAS DRIVING IN A VERY HILLY LOCATION, WHILE ON A HILL MY CAR STAYED HAVING ISSUES ACCELERATING, A LIGHTNING BOLT LIGHT FLASHED ON AND THAN IT LEVELED OUT, KEPT HAPPENING ON AND OFF TILL I SRIPPED AT A GAS STATION. I WENT TO LEAVE AND PUT THE CASE IN REVERSE AND THE CAR ACCELERATED ON ITS ON CAUSING ME TO SLAM ON THE BREAKS OTHER WISE I WOULD HAVE RAMMER INTO THE GAS PUMP. SO I PULLED BACK INTO THE PARKING SPACE AND LOOKED UP WHAT THAT LIGHT WAS. IT SAID (ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL) I READ IF IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE SONCE I HAD MY 2 LITTLE ONES IN THE CAR WITH ME. IT SAID NOT TO, SO WE HAD TO GET A HOTEL BECAUSE IT WAS 11PM. AND HAD TO WAIT TO TAKE IT TO THE SHOP ON THE MORNING. ON THE WAY TO THE SHOP, IT STARTED PUTTERING SO BAD, DIDN'T THINK I WAS GOING TO MAKE IT THERE. AND AT ONE POINT AFTER THE PUTTERING IT HAD LEVELED OUT AND THAN IT ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN AGAIN. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFTEY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE RECALLED! I SHOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO PAY $800 FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULDN'T BE MALFUNCTIONING AFTER ONLY OWNING IT FOR A YEAR! PUTTING ME, MY CHILDREN, AND OTHERS ON THE ROADS LIVES ON DANGER! RECALL THIS PART!
