2016 Chrysler 200 engine complaints
Page 3 of 6: complaints 41 to 70 of 132, newest first, as owners wrote them.
As I drove the vehicle off the lot located in modesto, ca I drove to my home address which is located in antioch, ca. On my way home the car started jerking when I notified the dealership they said they will fix it and to drop it back off. They had the vehicle for 7 days and did not fix a thing because the vehicle cuts off any power and gas control on the freeway.
I have been informed that I need engine and transmission mounts due to jerkiness in car. I have also had issues with the car shutting off at lights, or any driving situation where I may be at standstill waiting to proceed. Ex: traffic clearing or waiting for parking space. At times it take 3-4 tries before it restarts and there is no warning that it is going to cut off. Lastly, the electrical systems inside car are unstable. The air bag light goes on and off, the bluetooth connection for phone isn't always reliable. Overall I am disappointed and wish I was in position to trade it in. Please encourage people to note issues they are having as well.

Cars tipn needs replaced after 35,000 miles. Car initially set all dash lights off, one front and one rear LED light remained on even after key was taken out and never went out leading to dead battery. The car died on me while driving it about 20mph as I was attempting to pull out onto roadway causing near accident. Been without a car for last 3 weeks while trying to get diagnosis and repair. Total cost from going to several repair shops to get diagnosis and part to replace it is estimated to cost $1500-2000 which I cant afford. I am making payments on a car that I cant even drive. I am a college student and this was my first purchase of a car with my own money. This part needs to be recalled. I have read multiple complaints with the same issue . One chrysler repair shop made comment that he was surprised they havent had a recall on that part due to all the ones he has seen needing replaced. This needs to be fixed and chrysler needs to be accountable.
The engine turned off while I was driving and the power steering quit working. The screen alerterted me to put the car into park. I put the car in park and was able to restart the engine.
Air bags lights comes on indicating that there is a problem with the passenger seat. It has only came on after I have had a passenger in the passenger seat and on my instrument panel there's a red warning light that that air bag is not operational according to the dealership at jeff wyler east gate in batavia ohio 45102 513-7523447. I also had to put the same 200 s in the shop for a massive oil leak that once I noticed it and then had it checked by a chrysler service advisor there was no oil in the 3.6 l engine and I was told it was a common issue with the 3.6l engine that there was a tsb or something on it so I dropped it of at the above mentioned location to find out my warranty would cover the problem that it was the oil cooler cracked and I would have to pay the $200 lifetime warranty I had on the car. The other issue was there's a engine light on that indicated that the cooling system was malfunctioning which I had mentioned to the dealer when I bought the car or the sweet bungent odor that I smelled coming out of my vents at 5 miles when I bought it I was told that it would go away by 50 miles on my odometer and now at 66700 it's back and was notice by the discount tire shop tell me they smelled a strong coolent leak and I mentioned it to the dealer and they wanted to charge me more money to find if there was a issue that that had already told me was there after I bought the car at 5 miles and would go away at 50 ! To be honest I just believe I got use to it!!!
Vehicle continously stalls "shuts off" while driving this has happened numerous times, I've had my vehicle towed to the car dealership and then the car starts up again and the mechanic states they can't diagnose the issue unless it happens at the shop... This is very dangerous seeing that when I'm driving it's turning off suddenly without warning someone is going to be killed with this type of malfunction.... Would have to look at my receipt for the first incident, however it has started again
Vehicle shut off while running on major highway. Immediately took the vehicle to a dealership who told me it was due to lack of oil although we perform routine oil changes. This is very unsafe and chrysler doesn't want to assist me with this issue.
I am asking you to issue a safety recall on my vehicle. You investigated the 2015 model for the same issue and it was recalled as a result. The 2016 is just as dangerous. Is there a reason why the lives of people who drive 2015 models are more valuable than mine or my children? It turns off while driving with no warning and leaves me in the middle of intersections! The steering cuts off too. I have to first struggle to control the steering, shift into park, push start, and wait, while I brace myself for the impact that is about to shatter my spine or kill my children! It began as soon as I hit 60k miles a few weeks ago and happens every time I drive it. It happens mostly when I am turning, sometimes when braking for a light, and sometimes it doesn't actually turn off, it just seems like it is suddenly in neutral and makes revving sounds when I hit gas but wont go, that's when message says 'service transmission'. I was making a u turn and almost hit a pole! It may start up with first try, or a few tries. It hasn't happened in high speeds on highway but that may be because I am too afraid to go that route anymore. Obviously this is a manufacturing defect. I paid cash for this vehicle and should not have to pay a penny to fix this, but if I or mine are injured I will spend every cent I have on a lawsuit. Thank you for your understanding in this extremely important matter.
As I was driving I started to smell something burning one of my children began to cough as I looked back at him and then out the windshield again I seen smoke coming from the hood area so I immediately pulled off the rode and got both of my children out of the car as we moved away from the car the smoke began to get thicker and the next thing that happened was my car was up in flames. No lights on the dashboard came on the temperature of the car was normal no alarms going off on car before or while car was smoking. I was on a city street
Car has shut off while driving last few mornings. It happened in the exact same spot each morning. As soon as I turned onto a road, going 20-30 MPH, the car just stalls, says "place in p to start" and then dies. The gearshift and wheel lock up and you have to turn the car off and attempt to restart. Each time I had to try at least 3 times to get the car restarted. All lights come on dash, battery light included, but had battery checked and it is fine. Trying to restart, it doesn't want to turn over. This has happened with several cars behind me and have almost been rear ended because of it. Taking into dealership tomorrow to see what they're going to do. After reading other stories very similar to mine, I'm not very hopeful.
The pressure on my front drivers side isnt reading it at all at first I thought it was a an electrical so I changed it then a popping and clicking sound started so I went to a mechanic and they told me it was the cv axel joint I replaced it still persist they said it might be a valve ok I replaced still has the popping and clicking sound and to top it off when im pushing on the gas pedal to go faster the car for some reason pulls back they told me at the chrysler auto repaid it might be because it needs the transmission oil change I made an appointment and had it done but it still persists I don't know what else to do its cost me so much money to try to figure out what wrong with it and for some one on minimum wage its getting very difficult to continue paying this vehicle that has problems that just won't go away.
My car shuts off while running and tells me to switch to park. The steering wheel and breaks lock up. This happens mid drive or when I turn a corner and is very dangerous. I had this same problem on my 2015 chrysler 200 and now I am having the same issue with my 2016 chrysler. This needs to be fixed this is a manufacturer issue.
I have a 2016 chrysler 200 and of you are a quart low the vehicle has a sensor which tells the vehicle to shut off it don't matter we're you are at and you can only go 1800 to 2000 miles till it burns that quart off so when the vehicle dies the power steering is turned off and the steering wheel locks so there is no way to get off the road you have to stop the car and put in park to start again I called the manufacturer and they told me that means so safty is working properly so they can't do anything but to me that seems like a safty hazard to anyone in the car to get rear ended or in a intersection
Doesn't start. Every light came on. Everything needed to be serviced air bags key fob not detected air bags needed service parking brake needs service. Check engine light on. Battery light on. Can only start with a charge once charge removed car doesn't start. The car was stationary. I recently found out that the car was on the recall list, but I never received notification from the car company.
I'm buying this car this week where there any recall issues I want to make sure the dealer repaired them
My car is struggling with starting. Multiple times it has left me stranded. First trip to dealership, they stated it needed a computer update. The problem got worse after the computer update and begin happening more and more often. Gives me a "service transmission" message. It's only at 67,000 miles and I havent owned it a year. Very frustrated. It is going back to the dealership tomorrow!
Car suddenly died in traffic and wouldn't start back. Car has 66k miles. After getting a jump we got car home and hooked battery to a charger. Next time I went to drive it it died again and I was able to get it started back but the instrument panel blinks on and off and all of the warning lights start going on and off. Currently unable to drive it because it will just die while driving and with instrument panel blinking it doesn't show accurate speed. Please recall this car before it kills someone!
Car keep stalling out
At times will not start . Engine dies while going down the highway. Transmission loses power then after resting it will go again then out of nowhere it stalls again.
Within 1 mile, my car shut off twice while coming to a stop. The screen on the dash said to 'shift to p to start'. I did so, and then it sounded as if my car didn't want to start back up and took me three tries the first time and two the second time to get it started. Now looking into it these cars have a history of this same problem since the beginning of them being made, but nothing is being done about it.
Car shuts off without warning on the highway
The transmission will change gear unexpectedly. Cause my car to jerk shake and unusual long delay to accelerate at times even rev high while prolonged delay before accelerating. This has caused multiple situations that made the safety of driving this vehicle unpredictable and a hazard for me and other motorist.
My car started turning off as I was trying to drive about 3 weeks ago, I was told to go to a nearby dealership which I did instead of the dealership changing my oil they gave me two quarts of oil. As of today 7-23-19 my vehicle is back at the dealership where I purchased it back in 11-2018 because they are not able to tell me what's wrong with my vehicle which is northland chrysler in oak park, mi
My 2016 chrysler 200 stalls randomly in traffic on the highway. I was on my way home from ocean city, md when I hit traffic at the bay bridge. I was trying to switch lanes when I noticed my power steering was not working followed by a message on the screen stating to put the vehicle in park and restart the engine. Vehicle restarted but was not shifting correctly. Happened a second time in a similar situation. This is a major safety hazard. I don't even know where to begin looking for the problem because there is no check engine light indicating what is happening.
My car have been given me problems for about 6months. Engine light is on. Car keep cutting off in the middle of traffic. I have taken the vehicle to the dealer, I know six times before my factory warranty ran out, and they could never fix it. Took it today and they told me my warranty is out, and now I have to start doing random work to it to find out what's wrong. The employee of chrysler checked the car to see if it was as giving a code for what is wrong. She said it was not showing a code. The waited until warranty ran out, to make me pay for it. Congratulations hey could never find out what was wrong with it. I don't know what to do. I still owe 19000.00 on it. Please help.

Stop and go traffic for about 20 mins, once I entered the intersection the vehicle completely stopped without warning. I could not locate the emergency release to place the vehicle in neutral. Car sat in the intersection got 1.5 hours.
