NHTSA Complaint #11196894 — 2015 CHRYSLER 200

AS I WAS DRIVING HOME ON THE HIGHWAY THE CHECK TRANSMISSION LIGHT CAME ON, I TURNED INTO A GAS STATION AND ATTEMPTED TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND WAS UNABLE TOO. A NOTIFICATION POPPED UP STATING THE CAR WAS NOT IN PARK AND TO APPLY PARKING BRAKE TO PREVENT CAR FROM ROLLING. I THEN PUT THE CAR BACK IN D BUT WAS UNABLE TO MOVE, I THEN PLACED THE CAR IN R BUT ALSO WAS NOT ABLE TO MOVE. AFTER ATTEMPTING TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AGAIN WITH NO SUCCESS, I TRIED TO TURN THE CAR OFF, THIS ALSO WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. THE CAR WOULD ONLY GO TO ACC, I WAS FORCED TO LEAVE THE CAR IN THIS MODE UNTIL IT CUT OFF ON ITS OWN. I RETURNED TO THE CAR THE NEXT DAY AND WAS ABLE TO START IT, UPON STARTING THE CAR WAS IN P AND ALLOWED ME TO GO D AND MOVE THE VEHICLE. WITHIN 10 FEET OF DRIVING ON THE STREET, THE CHECK TRANSMISSION LIGHT REAPPEARED, I THEN PULLED INTO A PARKING SPACE ON THE STREET AND TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENED IN THIS CAR AT LEAST 7 TIMES AND I HAVE BEEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM AT LEAST 5 TIMES. EVERY TIME IT WAS EITHER A SIMPLE FIX OR THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I AM NOW OUT OF MY WARRANTY AND MAY BE FORCED TO PAY FOR A TRANSMISSION TO BE FIXED. I AM RISKING THE LIFE OF MY 4 YEAR OLD CHILD EVERY DAY I USE THIS CAR. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE BUT SOMEHOW MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED.
