I like the look of the new 200 which is what got me there. I wasn't looking for an expensive car, need met. The car drives "OK", handles, brakes, and features the same. The big problems with this thing is the computer/transmission relationship. IT SUCKS!!!!! This car doesn't know which gear it wants to be in and at it's worse will just stop for a few seconds (when you need acceleration most) to think about it. Three times I've nearly been in an accident as a result of pulling out hoping for a quick acceleration only to find out that this car would rather think about it. To that I have found a solution should you find yourself in a similar situation (until you can buy yourself out of this dysfunctional relationship). I've been driving in "L" or low gear and while my gas milage has suffered a little, the power and acceleration are there when I need it, particularly in stop and go traffic or around town. (On the open highway, "D" works fine.) In low, the computer takes over far before "red line" so no need to worry about blowing ANYTHING and it shifts a if it had a "sport mode", which it doesn't. SOOOO, now I just hate the car rather than loathing it. Beyond that, given that it's rated the worst car two years running the depreciation is horrific. I hope this helps.

Never Again

I bought the most expensive 2016 200c with every option available plus the extended warranty. Car was great for a month or two then stuff started happening. The adaptive cruise control sensors on front of car have plastic covers that go around them. One fell off, took it to dealer and they said there was never one there and it wasn't covered under warranty. Next the leather started to separate on passenger seat, only 5k miles and 4 months old. Took to dealer they submitted it to Chrysler who denied the claim and said it wasn't under warranty. I called customer care who said there was nothing they could do about it. Will never again buy from a Chrysler or from that dealer.

Bought the 90th year Anniversary Limited 4cyl with 13k in 2017 now after 3 years it has 54k. Issues so far: battery died, thermostat failed and tranny re- programming all under warranty... recently it was recalled for a software fix for minor oil consumption issue.. no other problems..handles well, tight steering, many options.. excellent stereo 8in control display Bluetooth etc moonroof leather steering wheel, tight body construction.. doors sound very solid when they close

2.4 / 9 speed trans it will take a little time to get use to driving the car but once you do you wont even notice the 9 speed trans except for the fantastic fuel mileage you will be getting. City/21/24 Highway /40+ The only problem with the car they had to replace the thermostat it stuck open, it was under warranty no charge. The only money I have spent on this car is oil changes every 4 to 6000 miles & one set of tires. TO bad they quit making this car. No problems to report just oil changes, gas mileage still the same city & highway this really is a great car. Now have 65000 on the car still no problems. Had to put front brake pads on the front and have the front rotors turned oil changes when the car tells me ,regular maintenance that’s all still gets great gas mileage love this car .The car has 73000 still no problems regular oil changes that’s all very solid car. 78000 still just oil changes and finally had to put rear brake pads on thats it. I traded the car in on a Ram 1500, My overall about the 200 was great 👍

1. Great Price- bought used, 2016 model purchased 2017 with 9800 miles & paid $16,000 with dealer provided finance co. 2. Mechanical- still under warranty when purchased (1 warranty service replaced entire rack & pinion at 30,000 miles after i went off road, shhh). Motor, transmission, brakes, a/c, starter, alternator, etc. performing great holding up strong now at 49,000 miles. using as company vehicle 3. Performance- not a big fan of 4 cylinders, but surpassed expectations, as expected has slow acceleration but have tracked highway mileage at over 49 MPG at 1800 RPM flat highway. Cold air. Brakes average, but i have stomped them hard several times and still has firm pedal but does not stop quick like truck brakes. Fully expect motor and transmission to hold out well until trade in at 125,000 miles. No complaints about 9 speed transmission shifts smooth for me. starts easy, idles and runs smooth. Driven hard in Texas climate from hill country to desert terrain to Saltwater Gulf at 40,000 miles i have driven in less than 18 months. Runs strong and durable. 4. Comfort/ features- interior is loaded as are most 4 cylinders to hide economy of the power train. Bluetooth, stereo, automated controls, etc best i have had but newest vehicle i ever owned as i assume power ports, etc. are now standard equipment as phone, computer, audio, video technologies merge. Looks expensive based on dash (back uo camera, programmable features, monitors for MPG, air pressure, temperatures, etc. ). Good driving experience for balance of economy cost for purchase price, maintenance costs (american made parts & labor), operation (1 gallon of gas over 40 miles highway), & enough power for climbing hills, entering freeway speeds, and carrying people and cargi load capacity. The back seat headroom never an issue for me as front extra roomy and just put kids or shorter passengers in back (mom slept in back on road trips). If you want fancy or show not your vehicle but looks stylish inside and out for avg. surburban family. I would buy again.
