The engine in our chrysler 200 loses oil at an alarming rate. The car eventually stalls and will not restart. We are told every time 'no oil shows on the dipstick. It is again in the shop having been towed there because it lost so much oil it would not start. The dealer is defiant because the government has refused to act and recall the 2016 for the same reasons that prompted a recall of the 2015 chrysler 200. Is it going to take consumer fatalities before the nhsta acts. Tecall these cars now !
My car continues to stall while driving on city streets, locking everything up. I have to put the car in park. Press the stop engine button, place my foot in the brake, press the start button,the engine whines, tries to start, winds again then chugs a few times. After doing this over and over again, the car will eventually start. Just to do it again. When I brought my car to the dealer, they told my car was "almost out of oil" after which they had done the last oil change claiming to have used synthetic oil. If that was the case, how does a 2016 car burn 4-5 quarts of synthetic oil and them not be able to tell me why. I see the recall for 2015 200's matching exactly what is happening to my 2016.
Was making a left turn going between 15 to 20 MPH and the vehicle just died out in the turning process.was able to restart the vehicle after 3 attempts

Went to a store with a heavily sloped parking lot. Approximately 15 to 20 degrees. Parked car and went in side, returned to the car, started, and placed car in reverse, looked behind me for pedestrians and notice some people down a little ways.. Proceeded to carefully pull out of the slopping parking space in reverse. Applied slight pressure to brake pedal to shifted car into drive. Removed foot from brake to apply foot to gas pedal with a little more pressure than usual due to the slop, to keep car from rolling backwards.. The car keep rolling in reverse due to the declining slop of the parking lot. Car did not engage into drive and the engine revved up to high rpms and if not for a fast reaction from me returning my foot to brake after realizing what was going on, I could of easily ran into the people that I noticed earlier. Not good! When I put my foot on the gas peddle to stop the car, the car went into gear and the car shook violently due to the high rpms. The people in the parking lot were also startled. This is the primary car for my wife and I asked her if the car has not gone into gear before. To my astonishment she said once. This car now sits in the garage awaiting the chrysler dealer to pick it up 27,997 miles. This kind of problem could easily do harmful bodily injury to a pedestrians or my wife. .
My car will die while driving or puts itself in neutral while on the hwy.

Thereally is a problem with the transmission and electrical system with this car. My car jerks everyday when shifting from park to drive and it hesitates. I took to the dealership for service and was told it is supposed to drive like that until the car is adjusted to my driving style. Also, onew day I was driving and out of nowhere in lose total power in the car. Took it to the dealer and they found nothing wrong. I have a 7 year old who rides with me everyday. This car is not safe.
