I had 4 wheel alignment done on my 2013 chrysler 200 as the wheel was pulling, shook at certain speed and steering wheel was not straight. Those problems were corrected but now I have a clunking sound coming from the left front sounds like under gas and brake pedals. Also when car is in park and you turn steering wheel you hear a noise, so maybe the clunking comes when moving steering while driving but this is a very annoying noise and if you look up this year car on utube the video describes the noise exactly. This car has less than 40,000 miles on it. I will be checking with chrysler dealership in morning to see if there were any bulletins on my car for this annoying clunking sound.

Harsh or hard shifting by model year
What owners say
My transmission has had nothing but problems shifting,racing rpms,banging and clunky plus the gears are searching. The software has been updated along with its recalls. Because there is no code when present or engine light. Chrysler will not call it not working. But they state its working fine because no codes or engine light. The dealer gave me a harx time with it as a trade in. The brakes have been an issue and they hear the noise byt state they are fine when in fact they dont always stop when pressing down. My front end and steering has been taken apart and replaced so many times . The front end scapes clunks still. I explained to both chrysler corp and arrigo dodge chrysler in west palm beach. Im still having problems. The car feels like I lose control of the car. I have a bad car service records state all the repairs. And the dealer is no help when the car was bumber to bumber coverage . All they did was year down take apart which they have done shotty work. And ripped off me . I have no recourse than to be stuck with this so called dream car of mine. $30,000 investment down the tubes.
I purchased a used chrysler 200 touring 2014, on 2/24/2015. The year make of the vehical is 2014 on the inside sticker, but the model # of the engine is 2013. The vehical was parked in the garage as, I turned the key to start the car the car engine began to make a knock, clunking sound and it hesitated to start. The engine sounded like it was about to break, or engine damage had occured. This happened on two occations within 6 months. In more than 5 occations driving on the freeway to speed up, or to change lanes the vechical accelerating is stuck and keeps acceleratimg in an upward rhythem. In addition, there is no control of the gas pedal during time the vehical is accelerating. I brought the car in to be checked at honda where I purchased the vehical, honda this day had the chrysler dealership do a diagnostic test on my chrysler touring 200, 2013 model. I was told that nothing was found wrong with the vehical, and no additional service needed. I have been doing research with safecar.gov reading all the complaints and recalls for the chrysler 200 touring 2013. I am shocked that they had not been more courteous, or helpful about the potential risk, and problems descriptions of the chrysler touring 200 2013. I was turned away just like all the other customers, but what if my car stalls on the freeway, than what? My car is a potential danger and I cannot afford to buy another car. I fear I will be a victum of the "lemon law."

After driving for a short amount of time ( 20-30 minutes) - when making turns or turning the steering wheel or going over speed bumps I start hearing a knocking / clunking noise coming from the left side of the car. The sound makes me very uneasy and it make you feel like the front end of the car is about to come apart. Not sure what is causing this problem, but it is a problem, and you should not be hearing this sound what so ever in any car! There needs to be a recall because after looking up this issue online, it didn't take long to find that their are a lot of other chrysler owners experiencing the same problem!
A loud clunking noise, which sounds like it is coming from the left driver side wheel. The noise has gotten much worse over the last month. I can hear it inside the car, and I can feel it in the steering wheel.. It does it all the time, weather I am turning, or driving straight.. Bumpy or smooth roads.
