I tried talking to Chrysler but they were no help. They have had a power failure recall but I was told that based on my vin number, didnt affect my vehicle. Intermittent power steering failure. I replaced the battery, I replace the rack and pinion and it’s still doing the same thing. $2300 down the drain. You can be driving and loose the ability to steer the vehicle. There are tons of complaints about this and they all say the same. They have replaced major parts and the issue persist. When speaking to crysler over the phone, they said that the replacement of the rack and pinion would fix the issue. Thats not true. https://www.200forums.com/threads/power-steering-failure.30529/ https://www.carproblemzoo.com/chrysler/200/power-steering-failed-problems.php https://www.carproblemzoo.com/chrysler/200/steering-rack-and-pinion-problems.phphttps://www.aboutautomobile.com/Consumer-Complaint/2015/Chrysler/200/Steering There is alot more. I have been dealing with this since August. I dont know what else to do or where to turn but this is a major safety issue and it needs to be made public and addressed .

When the vehicle accelerates, the gear shift is harsh and very scary to the point it feels like the car is gonna fall apart. When decelerating, the same thing a occurs. At one point the whole car shifted to the side while attempting to accelerate or decelerate. When making a turn and mainly a U-turn, the steering feels like it's harsh and feels like it will break if it was turned too far or too hard accidentally. The gear shifting/transmission does not shift very smoothly at all times. Its scary when it switches gears. Both accelerating and decelerating in the middle of the highway whether going from 60mph to 70 mph feel or 60mph going down to 40mph. I'm sure it was steering and gear shifting issue because I felt it myself. It sure could be engine problem on the top of that as well. Thank you!

Started the car and there was no power steering and couldn't turn the wheel. There is no place to check for power steering fluid. If you turn the wheel to the right, when it works, a air compression noise is made. Turned it off and back on and it worked. Stopped at a stop sign and it quit working again.

I am still having transmissions problems, transaxle, and smelling smoke smell inside cabin. I feel very unsafe in driving this car. I have taken this car more than 2 times and the recalls stated that the transmission should be replaced and I have no evidence that it has been done. Yet each time I have taken the car with the complaint that the car is shifting hard, & into neutral unexpecting it has not been repaired. Transaxle is a contributing issue to my premature tires wear of my front tires and issues of the wheel barrens and unable to get a alignment. I have been told that I need struts and wheel bearings that is hard to believe with less than 30, 000, miles. This car has 58,175 miles . I cannot or have no intention in purchase of another car. Yet I feel that what safety recalls that was required were not done why can't I see what the recalls were. Service dept. States they can't duplicate the concern yet there are thousands stating that they have the same issues. It is currently located at tomball dodge, in tomball tx 281‑351‑2000

Car has serv awd light on had one shot replace a motor on the outside of the transfer case but the problem came back when shifting from drive to sport next I brought it to chrysler and they replaced the sensor near the motor that was previously replaced and it didn't fix anything they still don't know what's wrong with it. My car jerks forward mid breaking in the RPM surge also my transmission is slow to downshift in the first three gears I believe it is and loses compression when going up some hills power to this vehicle as in the torque or horsepower is very inconsistent sometimes it feels sluggish other times it just wants to go . Shops report brake surge is normal. Also had sporatic hard pedal, master cylinder is ok. Brake pedal clicks and feels unstable. The steering rack feels loose and dangerous like its going to fall through the floor. Brake pedal arms rusted cars only 5 years old with 60,000 miles on it with no prior flood damage.
