The steering column makes loud "popping" noises at low speeds and when turning the vehicle. It sounds like the steering column is going to snap. In addition, I had to have all of my lifters replaced in the engine due to a loud ticking noise coming from under the hood. Lastly, the leather material is coming off of all of the doors in the vehicle, and the light for the emergency brake stays on even when the brake is not engaged. I despise driving the car and will never buy another chrysler.

After driving for 15 or 20 minutes or more, I can hear and feel in the steering wheel a clunking noise/sound under the hood. There is no pattern to it. It happens either on a straight line or by turning. The banging rate won't increase/decrease if I speed up/down. If I turn on the AC before the clunking noise/sound starts, it will commence to make the noise/sound before the 15 or 20 minutes of driving. It is driving me crazy (no pun intended). It sounds like something is completely loose and is going to fall at any moment. My safety and those riding with me are not secured in this car. The internet is full of people with this same problem for this particular car and there is not one solid solution for it. Could anyone help us and make chrysler get more serious with this problem/solution? Regards.

A clicking noise in steering wheel while driving no matter how fast you are going. Also, a knocking noise when driving over bumps. Sometimes, the car does not pick up speed for a while when driving up a hill.

After putting on 4 new tires and new front brakes, we noticed an issue with the steering column clunking, and feeling very loose. After three trips to the service counter at a chrysler dealership, (you would think that they would know what the problem was), I have figured out the issue thanks to youtube. Apparently, I there are many others having the same issue. And, I called chrysler directly, and the girl that I spoke with stated that the part had been recalled on other chrysler products, but not on my car. This part needs to be recalled. You feel like you are driving down the road, and the car is falling a part. You feel like parts could fly off at any time. Very disappointing! And, just out of warranty. Please view this website to understand the issue. It explains it in depth. Https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=chrysler+200+clunking+problem.
