2014 Chrysler 200 brakes complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 19 of 19, newest first, as owners wrote them.
I have taken my car into the dealership to address the constant squealing of the brakes and the emergency brake indicator light randomly turning on. The dealership said there was nothing wrong with the brakes or the electrical system. The brakes are so loud and noisy that people can hear my car coming from far off, they sound like I own an old beat-up vehicle that has never been serviced. This car is brand new and should not be so embarrassingly loud each time I hit the brakes whether it's at a slow creep or on the highway. The emergency brake indicator light on the dash is also very concerning. At first the indicator light for the emergency brake would come on at the top of any hill or incline, like at the top of a ramp to enter the freeway. Now, the indicator light for the emergency brake randomly comes on at least once a day. I am afraid that one day the vehicle will try to engage the brake itself, or that my car will lock up while I am driving fast down the highway. The emergency brake has never been engaged manually by me except when I park at locations where I use the e-brake as a safety precaution. This should not happen while driving and especially if I haven't touched it. The dealership says there is nothing wrong, I beg to differ. The tire sensor for my passenger side, rear tire always says the tire pressure is low as well. It will say the tire is low about once a month, and it's always only this tire. I check the pressure with a hand gauge and all is fine. This vehicle obviously has some sort of electrical issue and the brakes are just horrid!! I would love to get rid of this vehicle but unfortunately with it being so new I am far from being able to do so. What a disappointment chrysler!!
The brakes make a lot of noise as if they needed to be replaced because of wear but the car was brand new. I have taken it to the dealership and they said all of chrysler's 200 have this same problem with the brakes. That there is nothing wrong with the brakes. ...updated 09/22/15
The brakes make a lot of noise as if they needed to be replaced because of wear but the car was brand new. I have taken it to the dealership several times and they always say the same thing: all of chrysler's 200 have this same problem with the brakes. That there is nothing wrong with the brakes. This is terrible because people know I'm coming just by the noise.
