2015 Chrysler 200 S 4dr Sedan AWD (3.6L 6cyl 9A)

I owned a 2013 Chrysler 200 and when I saw the re-styled 2015 models , I had to have one! I did my research on the cars before I made my purchase. Make SURE you get the 3.6/V-6, NOT the 4 cylinder. The V-6 pumps out 295 HP that has more HP than a Suburau WRX, which only has 286 HP. Also find a car with the ALPINE 9 speaker 506 watt sound system with the 8.4 U-connect touch screen NAV. (Navigation-Sound Group 1) With my Sirius XM subscription, the touch screen offers a current weather map with forecast/severe weather warnings and nearby gas prices! I also have the "Comfort Group" that has heated seats, steering wheel & remote start. What is AWESOME during winter months, when you auto start the car, it automatically activates the heated seats, steering wheel & ups the blower speed on the fan control so your ride is TOASTY when you enter! Also, you can keep your FOB in your pocket or purse and when you get near the car and place your hand on the door handle, it's unlocks automatically so you don't have to fumble around to open it! I have the 200 S model that has the 19" Hyper Black factory rims with stiffer sport suspension and my choice of vivid pearl blue clearcoat and people don't know if my car is an Audi or a BMW! (snicker) Let me tell you that V-6 is freaky fast with the 9-speed trans. Some people complained of "hard shifting" which can be fixed with a re-flash at the dealer and the trans will adapt to how "you" drive and not the previous owner. (I had that done) Yes, the back seat is door area is small for adults but this is my personal car and have no problem with that issue. Furthermore, most "newer" cars recommend full synthetic oil in their engine designs but thanks to FCA engineers , only regular conventional oil is required saving $$$ on oil changes! The front seats are nice and comfy and the Alpine sound system has a "surround sound" mode placing you in a concert hall while motoring around and the 8" factory subwoofer thumps pretty decent. I put 3K on my car so far and I LOVE it! FCA Sergio Marchionne made a mistake by ending production of this car. FCA should have done a better job in marketing this car to the public by comparing the quickness and sporty lines of the 200 to Audi, BMW and the Suburau WRX as mentioned earlier. The younger generation would have jumped on this choice of car big time, by advertising the 200's prowess as a sporty racing machine and not a droopy 4 cylinder grocery getter......

I have had this car for a year and a half, and have put 18,000 miles on it. Mine is the V6 C model. It feels like a luxury vehicle, fit and finish is excellent and is solid as a tank. For those whose ownership has been a nightmare, of course they will rate it poorly. I would too if that was my experience. But go on any review site for any car, and you will see people have problems with every make and model. I test drove both a V6 and 4 cylinder Honda Accord when deciding what to buy. The 4 cylinder was a non starter…buzzy and unrefined, IMHO. V6 Accord was merely competent. Nothing special. The 200 on the other hand felt like a substantial and smooth machine. I still enjoy it. It’s one weakness is the transmission. It is not “sharp.” Shirts, while smooth are lazy. Also it’s no sportscar. But in general, I’m very happy with it. Too bad they are going to D/C the car, but so be it.

I bought a 2015 V6 200C in July, 2014. My wife and I love the car. Quiet, solid and a pleasure to drive. Electronics are easy to use. Stands out against its competitors.
Great Car!

I was never a Chrysler fan but when I saw the 200 in the street I went into the dealer to take a look. The design really blew me away. It shows the Italian side of Chrysler. Kind of a Maserati look to it. After I took the test drive and saw the price, I was sold. I bought the 200C with the V-6 and leather package which brings the Navi package. The car is built solid and definitely drives like a car $10000 higher in price. Interior is well designed and comfortable. High quality leather not the cheap material other cars have. A real looker. With it's 5 year 100k mile warranty, it's a no brainer. Me being a patriot, buying American was also a big plus. I'm shocked it isn't on the top 10 list
Reality of Ownership. 18 months, 15k miles

2015 Chrysler 200 Limited 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 9A)

Purchased brand new prior to massive incentives with 18 miles on the car when I bought it. Engine sounds good when new, beautiful style, feels much more expensive than it is, at first. Then come the never ending rattles, from door panels, pillar panels, vibrations of the engine making cups rattle in the cup holders. The 4 cylinder engine that now sounds like it has a heavy piston tap when at idle in gear with the AC on. ( Don't worry they say, that's the 'Multi Air' System its perfectly normal.) Then comes the real problem, the transmission. Driving the car in the 500 mile "re-learn" period after they "update/flash/reset" the car drives as normal as it can with so many gears. Once it "learns your driving" ( I don't race my car, I drive like a responsible adult, however racing it around like an idiot does make the car seem a bit more normal) the transmission does have a number of lovely added features such as; sudden lunges when downshifting, getting stuck in 3rd gear when coming to a stop to prevent you from accelerating normally through an intersection, half way through it will suddenly drop the transmission into second giving you burst of acceleration (almost like you have turbo lag accompanied by horrendous noise ) , loss of power while making a U-turn on busy roads, lunging forward into garage walls once its put in park. Harsh shifts, are a common experience with this car, if you decide to buy it know that you will often feel like someone is kicking you under your seat as you are driving down the road. You will also experience the loving surge the car has acquired since the last "reset" when cruising along at any consistent speed in 4th or 7th gear. I've decided it must be part of a driver alertness package my car wasn't purchased with. Thanks Chrysler for the free upgrade... The car has also had its fair share of "phantoms" with the 8.4 Uconnect system, AC couldn't be controlled, freezing when phone was plugged in to the USB port, now randomly the ghost of Chryslers past (hackers) have come out to allow the Uconnect to mess with my phone if it is plugged into the USB system. I can tell the car to be on radio and it will shift back to play my phone every 2-3 minutes. If i need to charge my phone now I drive in silence with my phone turned off as well. You will meet many new people with your Chrysler 200, if its anything like mine the 10 visits to service in the 15k miles (nearly every 1500 miles, but whos counting I love being without my car, or a loaner) have allowed me to meet nearly every service advisor at both dealerships with in 35 miles of my house. In addition to talking with number of agents working at Chrysler Customer Care. My newest introduction was to a lovely lady named TRIVIA who works for the customer resolutions department, in a review of Lemon Law dispute with the car. She has a wonderful habit of not answering ANY phone calls, returns voicemails when its convenient and makes appointments with you (at your request) for phone calls which she never makes, or takes when you call her at said time. She must be incredibly overworked at Chrysler in light of the companies poor build quality, and poor customer service standards. It all makes sense now why Chrysler is discontinuing the 200 and Dart. The company will be bleeding money by the time they are done with recalls/ buybacks/ and bad public relations but America will just bail them out again... Your Tax dollars hard at work.
