| 2011 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | AFTER MINIMAL RAIN, THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY FOGGED UP AND ACCUMULATED DROPS OF WATER INSIDE THE SEALED UNIT. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER, TECHNICIAN SAID SEAL AROUND UNIT IS CRACKED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. DEALER CHARGES OVER $500 DOLLARS FOR REPLACEMENT. NIGHTTIME VISIBILITY IS DRASTICALLY REDUCED. REPAIR IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY WARRANTY. THIS IS AN ISSUE CHRYSLER KNOWS ABOUT BUT HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL. *TR |
| 2013 | POWER TRAIN | I STARTED THE 2013 CHRYSLER 200 AND SHIFTED THE TRANSMISSION INTO "DRIVE". WITH MY FOOT STILL ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, I CHECKED THE MILEAGE ON OUR NEW CAR AND IT READ 139 MILES. I COULD FEEL THE TRANSMISSION ENGAGE THEN I FELT WHAT SEEMED TO BE A SECOND ENGAGEMENT BEFORE I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE. AS SOON AS I BEGAN DRIVING I NOTICED THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SHIFTING OUT OF FIRST (1ST) GEAR. I STOPPED THE CAR AND SHIFTED THROUGH PARK, NEUTRAL AND MANUAL IN AN ATTEMPT TO FREE UP THE TRANSMISSION BUT WHEN I STARTED DRIVING AGAIN IT STILL WOULD NOT TRANSITION OUT OF FIRST (1ST) GEAR EVEN WHEN PUT IN THE MANUAL SHIFT MODE. I DROVE IT DIRECTLY TO THE DEALER WITHOUT TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE, AND AFTER A TEST DRIVE THEY CONFIRMED THAT IT WAS NOT SHIFTING BUT STATED THEY COULD NOT FIND A CODE INDICATING ANY PROBLEM. THEY RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND IT BEGAN TO FUNCTION NORMALLY AGAIN. THE DEALER SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO, AND TO BRING IT BACK IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN. *TR |
