2011 Chrysler 200 Suspension Problems

“My car since I purchased (brand new) tends to wear the back tires out and swerves when it hits a bump, rain, or snow. It gets worse when there is a lot of weight in the back. Such as, two people in the back seat and for this reason I tend to be alone in the car because it could become dangerous to take passengers.”

“I could be driving on dry or wet pavement and if there is any weight in the back end of the car it sways all over the road as if I'm losing control of the car. Any little bump will launch me almost into the other lane. I see a lot of people are having the same exact problem I am and I would like to know what Chrysler is going to do about the situation because someone loses a life over this car.”

“The car accelerates and if I hit a bump or anything in the road my car will start to sway back and forth and has actually spun me around in a 360 motion on more than one occasion. Sometimes you dont even have to go over a bump or anything it just shakes and sways. It does it on any roadway, any condition. Its a death trap. I have almost been in very bad accidents 3 times because I lost comtrol because of the swaying. Once was a near head on with and 18 wheeler. Chrysler need to do something about these cars.”

“It was snowing lightly and this car could not establish traction. I've had the tires examined and they have been verified by a tire company and a dealership to be in good condition. They are all-weather tires. The dealership felt the problem in a test drive and they don't know what is causing the sway or fishtail effect. This effect occurs when there is any type of precipitation on the roads. I've researched on the web and discovered many, many complaints about this. …”

“The car jumps and jerks all over the road when driving and the road becomes uneven,has bumps or is anything but smooth. I have gone through 2 sets of rear tires due to the tire wearing down on the inside of the tire all the way down to the radial cords.I bought the car from a dealer used. 3 days after purchase date I was driving on a grooved road and the car started swaying and swerving to the point of loosing control and going into the oncoming lane. Luckily there was no traffic or this could have been tragic. At the time I thought I did something wrong. …”
