Filed Apr 10, 2021 · Acceleration, Transmission · 108,925 miles · NM

Chyrlser 200 4cyl sedan. When driving on the freeway the car doesn't shift to the proper gear. The rpms would be between 6000-7000 and couldn't get over 60 MPH. It has happened twice in the past month. The check engine light showed up the second time with a code p0882 transmission control module.

Gear shifter gets stuck and won't shift from park to reverse or drive. Makes a clicking noise several times and then will shift. Seems this could be dangerous in drive mode if it slips out of gear. I am entering a date below but has happened several times. Over 20 in the last year. Seems to be worse when cold but not necessarily only when cold.

I've been having issues with the transmission shifting. While on the highway going up a slight incline the transmission shifts from 6th gear to 5th and back to 6th rapidly. It doesn't matter if cruise control or manual. The second issue is the starting the car and putting it into drive. It goes into gear hard the out of gear and back into gear. When I start to drive the transmission will not shift. It is stuck in gear. I can put it into manual shift and it will not make a difference. I have to pull over. Shut off the vehicle and start it back. Then the transmission will shift correctly. This happens maybe once a month. Recently it has happened twice in two weeks. The third issue is downshifting of the automatic transmission. I have let off the gas and it down shift hard enough to pull your back from the seat. It is worse coasting down a step hill when it downshift hard. I have been to the chrysler dealer four times so far for the same issues first 08/26/2015 second 10/28/2015 third 05/25/2016 fourth 09/17/2016 I have also been in contact with chrysler. Both the dealer and chrysler says they have never heard of this issue. The dealer will take a 6 mile road test and say there is nothing wrong. The last appointment the dealer was supposed to drive over 50 miles to try to duplicate my issues. They never took the car on the road and said nothing was wrong and it drove fine. Chrysler or the dealership have not made an attempt to repair the vehicle. I have two videos of that the car does on the road and the transmission acts up.

When I shift from 1 gear to the other there is a noise and a jerk. The RPM also goes up very high when I try to accelerate as if it is not able to shift gears. It won't shift until I stop accelerating. I took it to the dealer the 1st time and was told there is a recall for the issue and a flash was sent to the car's computer. I noticed the issue was not fixed almost immediately. I took back a 2nd time and told this is typical of this model and that there is nothing they can do. I started noticing this problem with less than 50,000 miles on the car. I can imagine the problems I would have later. Then to be told there is nothing that can be done is discouraging.

I left work and pulled of the parking lot. I could not get above 40 MPH. I felt like I was stuck in 1st gear. Went straight to the dealership. Explained my problem. Made an appointment. When I went to leave, the car was fine. I called them and they said I might need an update for the hard drive. I went and had that done. It was fine for 3 weeks. And then the same thing happened. I put the car in park. Then turned the car off. Then started the car and then it was fine.

2013 chrysler 200 convertible was bought new and a few weeks after purchase, this cars transmission got stuck in 1st and would not shift...this is an automatic transmission...took it in and was told it was fixed...long story short...this same problem has occurred 7 times...the dealership...glen e. Thomas in signal hill, ca. Did all they could to repair the car and were always very nice and accommodating. This is a factory problem and it was just in again a 7th time in may 2014...it happens on the freeway and my wife refuses to drive the car anymore...I have a new car, not even a year old and less that 6000 miles and cannot get the transmission to work correctly...now the driver side door and window rattles and is very annoying...car has been in 2 times for that...love the car but it is not working properly and is very stressful and disturbing to me and my wife because we are always nervous that the problem could happen again and leave us in danger.

This vehicle does not drive properly. The rpms run high and many times does not shift out of 5 gear while driving at high speeds. I have complained about this since I bought the vehicle, however have been told "that is how this car drives", "it is ok to red line your car". After several complaints the dealership gm finally agreed there was something wrong and the "flashed" my car. After that I was getting 30 mpg highway and it was shifting without me having to take my foot of the gas. Less then 5,000 miles later it is back to the way it was. Dealership now says it is fine, yet I am averaging on the interstate 22 - 25 mpgs. I am so frustrated with the service I am receiving.

Transmission disengaged on the highway and the car coasted to a stop. After waiting 20 min I was able to limp off the highway, but the transmission would not shift out of first gear.
