2012 CHRYSLER 200 Fuelpropulsion System Problems

At first the car started making chirping sound on the right side when ever the car idles. One day I was driving and it shut down while I was driving and the check engine light and electrical light came on, i finance the car and they do the repairs under warranty no electrical repairs. They did repairs to the engine they claim and the problem still persists when the engine shuts off while I’m driving. the brakes lock up and the steering wheel locks up. And you can’t change the gears to park the car. I literally drive with my hand on the emergency break out of anxiety, after it shuts off, the odometer and rpm meter both drop at the same time when it occurs, and after waiting for it to come back on the rpm struggles to go over the “1” I have to wait 20mins for the...

FUEL PUMP FAILURE, TRIGGERED HEAVY GASOLINE SMELL IN THE CAR SUFFOCATING BREATHING

I HAVE A 2012 CHRYSLER 200 THAT STALLS RANDOMLY. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN FOR SERVICE AND DIAGNOSTIC SERVICES AND NO RESULTS. THE SYSTEM HAS ABSOLUTELY NO CODES STORED IN THE SYSTEM. IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF COMPLAINTS WITH THE SAME THING HAPPENING TO PEOPLE. IT HAS LEFT ME IN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS MANY TIMES. I DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE OR SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AS I HAVE LEARNED IT HAS BEEN AFFECTING YEARS FROM 2011 TO 2016

TAKATA RECALL THE TIPM HAS MALFUNCTIONED CAR WILL NOT FUNCTION OF START

TAKATA RECALL POWER LOSS HESITATION STALLS ENGINE LIGHT CODES P0300 P0306 SAYS CYLINDER 6 MISFIRE HAD TO GO TO DEALER CAUSE NOTHING FIXES IT IDLE IS OK DRIVING IT HESITATES ENGINE LOSSES POWER REPLACED ALL ON CODE LIST WON'T FIX HAS MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS AND CHRYSLER CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT WHY IS IT THERE IS NOT AN INVESTIGATION GOING ON PEOPLE HAVE TO KEEP PAYING OUT OF POCKET ON A DEFECT IN THE MITSUBISHI 3.6L FLEX FUEL GAS MOTOR

THE CAR STALLS OUT!!! CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE CAR STOPS ON THE HIGHWAY!! I WAS DRIVING AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED AND THE CAR JUST QUIT. IT REFUSED TO START FOR ABOUT 5MINUTES.

ENGINE SHUTS OFF ON HIGHWAY GOING FULL SPEED LIMIT SURROUNDED BY HEAVY TRAFFIC. I WAS TERRIFIED. THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON & CAN'T GET CAR STARTED. THEN CAR STARTS & ENGINE LIGHT GOES AWAY. NOT TO MENTION TRANSMISSION IS LEAKING & NEW TRANSMISSION WAS PUT IN 2015. CHRYSLER CAN'T GET ME IN UNTIL 4/19/18 BC ITS BUSY SEASON. THIS MAY BE WHY WINDSHIELD WIPERS COME ON EVERYTIME I TURN LEFT.

TOTALLY INTEGRATED CONTROL MODULE HAS FAILED LEAVING MY CAR UNABLE TO START AND ONCE STARTED HAVE LURCHES IN ACCELERATION. WILL CRANK BUT NOT START.

CAR HAS BEEN ACTING FUNNY BUT PARKED IN A CUSTOMER PARKING LOT AND WHEN I TRIED TO START CAR IT STATED SEVERE PROBLEM AND WOULD NOT TURN OVER. WITH MY LOW MILES I CANT BELIEVE THAT A FUEL PUMP COULD GO.

STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, UP UNTIL THEN CAR WAS DRIVING FINE, MADE A LEFT TURN AND THE 200 LOSS POWER AND STALLED OUT. THE ETC LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON OUT THE CORNER OF MY EYE, NEXT THING I KNOW I WAS PLOWED INTO BY ANOTHER CAR. AFTER DOING MORE RESEARCH, I HAVE SEEN THIS PROBLEM COME UP TIME AFTER TIME. THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE ACTUALLY HAS PLASTIC GEARS, PLASTIC GEARS THAT CONTROL THE OPENING OF THE THROTTLE VALVE IM SURE THOSE TEETH WILL WEAR OUT ON NEARLY EVERY CAR AND CAUSE PROBLEMS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE KEY WAS TURNED OVER, THE LIGHTS FLICKERED FOR THE GAUGES AND AN ABNORMAL NOISE EMITTED FROM THE FUEL PUMP AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

4 CYLINDER 2.7L ENGINE CITY GAS MILEAGE IS ONLY 13.5 MPG. MY 2012 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN WITH A 3.6L V-6 GETS 15 MPG. THE 200 SHOULD BE GETTING AT LEAST 18-20 MPG. MY 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA GETS 23 MPG WITH THE SAME TYPE OF CITY DRIVING. THERE ARE PEOPLE COMPLAINING ALL OVER THE WEB ABOUT THE EXCESSIVE FUEL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM. CHRYSLER SHOULD FIX THE PROBLEM AND DO A RECALL. MINIMUM THEY SHOULD INSTALL AN ECO MODE BUTTON TO BRING THE MPG UP TO THE ADVERTISED MPG. THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT POINTS SHOULD BE LOWERED SO THE ENGINE DOES NOT REV TO 3000 RPMS ON EVERY SHIFT. IT IS RIDICULOUS THAT THE V6 VERSION GETS BETTER MPG. IMAGINE ALL THE PEOPLE THAT CHOSE TO GO WITH THE 4 CYLINDER TO SAVE ON GAS. CHRYSLER KNOWS THIS PROBLEM AND SHOULD HAVE ELIMINATED THE 4 CYLINDER OPTION ALTOGETHER BUT CHOSE TO OFFER IT SO...

THIS CAR WAS BOUGHT FOR ADVERTISED MILES PER GALLON (MPG) WAS 31MPG, BUT ON THE HIGHWAY IT IS ONLY GETTING ABOUT 15MPG. THIS CAR IS EITHER DEFECTIVE OR CHRYSLER HAS EMBARKED ON MAJOR FALSE ADVERTISING OR FRAUD CAMPAIGN IN WHICH MILLIONS OF PEOPLE BOUGHT THIS CAR THINKING THEY WOULD GET 31MPG, BUT ARE PAYING TWICE AS MUCH IN GAS INSTEAD OF SAVING MONEY. IF YOU THINK YOU ARE GETTING 31MPG ON HIGHWAY, BUT ONLY GET 15MPG, THAT MEANS YOU RUN OUT OF GAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND AN ACCIDENT CAN OCCUR EITHER WHILE THE CAR IS SLOWING DOWN IN THE LANE, OR AFTER IT IS PUSHED INTO SHOULDER, WHICH IS STILL DANGEROUS. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF REVIEWS ON THE INTERNET WITH SAME PROBLEM - NOT GETTING GAS MILEAGE. PLEASE FORCE CHRYSLER TO TAKE BACK THESE CARS BECAUSE IT IS EITHER FALSE ADVERTISING AND CONSUMER FRAUD FOR ADVERTISING 31MPG, OR DEFECTIVE...

THIS CAR WAS BOUGHT NEW WITH APPROX 300 MILES BROUGHT FROM A DEALER'S INVENTORY IN KOKOMO, IN TO ONE IN NORTHERN KENTUCKY, WHERE IT WAS BOUGHT 11 MAY ,2012..IT HAD BEEN ON THE PREVIOUS DEALER'S LOT, AS PART OF INVENTORY, I BELIEVE SINCE SEP,2011. IN TOTAL IT HAS STALLED WHILE STOPPED AT A LIGHT 2 SEPARATE TIMES..TWICE IT HAS EITHER QUIT WHILE SLOWING OR DOWNSHIFTED CAUSING QUITE A VIOLENT THROW FORWARD OF PERSONS IN THEIR SEATS WHILE AT A RELATIVELY SLOW SPEED COMING TO A STOP...IN THE OLD DAYS IT WOULD BE THE JERK YOU GET WHILE POPPING A CLUTCH TO GET A CAR STARTED WITH A BAD BATTERY.. THE THIRD TIME IT STALLED WAS BACKING OUT OF OUR DRIVEWAY...WE ARE NOW APPROACHING 1000 TOTAL MILES ON THE CAR WITH LESS THAN A MONTH OF OWNERSHIP...MADE FIRST VISIT TO A DEALER SERVICE 30 MAY 2012,..PCM CODE WAS UPDATED,BUT COULD NOT...
