I was driving on the expressway and my car died without any warning. I brought it to the dealership and they said I had oil in the injectors. They cleaned it up and sent me on my way for $715. Not even a month later I'm still having the same issues and now sometimes it's not starting. So another repair shop changed the battery and starter, after the work they run some tests and say that I have a bad tipm to bring it back to the dealership. I bring it back to them and they want around $1800 now for this repair. I called Chrysler and spoke with them about this and they refused to help in any way with this situation even though we are loyal Dodge family customers(on our 5th vehicle). The reviews online show many people having this issue and it is a very dangerous and scary experience having your car die in the middle of the expressway with no power steering. I definitely think there should be a recall for this part to save the lives of others on the roadways. Thanks in advance
I had the seatbelt fixed due to recall but I almost got into accident as I could not pull the seatbelt. I felt like it was choking me. The second problem which is the current. I have been experiencing when you start up the car there are times it will start right away and there are times that I have to try it to start between 3 or 5 times. Brought the car to the mechanic 3 times in 2 weeks.. I have a brand new battery, not even a year old alternternator, spark plug is also new, brake is new and another parts was replaced which cost me $300. Today, December 19, 2019 I brought my car to the mechanic to have the problem diagnosed but on the 13 detected none of it has error.. please help me. I already spent so K in money to get it fix. I don't know what else the problem. Been to two mechanics and both of them can't find the problem. I can't afford to go back and forth to the mechanics and I am still making payments to the car. Please help!
Heating and cooling. When turning on the heat, the system blows cold air on the passenger side. Then if the car is in idle for a little while then both sides blows out heat. But more often, when the heat is on, it blows out cold air.
The car had only 35,000 miles when the issue started. The passenger heat is cold, and the defrost will not work, while the driver's side gets warm, and will defrost a small amount of the driver side windshield, and nothing on the side windows. This issue is a hazard for visibility in the winter. I have researched the matter to finds this is a common issue with the Chrysler 200 and has a repair bill of $1500 as the passenger side has a blockage or clog in the system.
I was driving my car on 295 S yesterday and it lost power and the hot oil light came on and I had to pull over because I was almost hit by an 18 wheeler and sit there for 30 minutes and it states it is a transmission problem and this is the second complaint I have sent to you and I have tried to call but no one is answering or they hung up on me.05.
The heater core gets clogged up and your windshield visibility will not be cear. Thia will cause unsafe driving measures.no heat my car blows out vool air only.
Heat stopped working on passenger side. Defrosting is more difficult being that the air is not warm in cold temperatures. Prior to the heat not working on the passenger side the A/C stopped getting cold too. (it was getting cold only on the drivers side)
Passenger side heating and defrost not working and barely working on driver side. Will not defrost causing trouble with visibility... there have been numerous complaints about this very same issue on "carcomplaints.com" the issue became noticeable when it state to get cold in November and December of 2017 around 68,000 miles
Heat only coming from right side of car, any setting I use. Heat only comes from right side of car. This seems to be a known issue on Chrysler/Dodge vehicles. This is a safety issue, cannot properly defrost car, windows ice over, unsafe to drive especially with children
There isn't any heat on the passengers side. The dealer said the heater core and the radiator also the thermostat' S. the said that Chrysler puts in a chemical that's supposed to fill in any pin holes and now a couple of years later it becomes sludge and clogs up the heater core and everything else. And now I have a $2900 bill that I have to pay. It's not right for Chrysler to do that to the public and get away with it.
Passenger side does not have any heat coming out of the vents, or defrosters. Only the far driver side produces small amount of warmth. Being that I live in Wisconsin, it has become hazardous for me to drive my vehicle in the winter for obvious reasons. Not being able to unfog, or defrost your windows is unbelievably dangerous! aside from the dangers of driving at times with only half of a clear windshield, my passengers and I freeze inside the vehicle during the winter! the only way to clear the windshield and passenger window is to periodically open the windows while driving, which only makes the inside temperature that much more unbearable.
