“I was driving down the road and while accelerating , my car suddenly jerks really hard forward . My engine starts knocking really loudly & I started to smell burning oil . The car was smoking & could have lead to a very serious accident . Now as the result of Chrysler 200 being such a failed model , I was unable to continue making payments and fix the vehicle , now I'm $22,000 in debt .”

“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.”
