    I have a white 2013 Chrysler 200. 4 cylinder with 6speed transmission. I love this car. Tan and black interior. Cloth seats. Feels like small luxury car. I'll have her paid off next year and really plan to keep her.

    15 year mechanic in California and I have a company who I service and I'm impressed with the 2.4L model. The company had 5 and the ones that made it threw the drivers crashing them have 300,000 miles on them no major issues. Basic repairs like brakes, alternator, battery and hoses ect. In my experience seems like a very well built engine setup. I prefer the 200 over and 300 model

      I dont care for chrysler but this 2.4L was done right. The block has piston sleeves made of iron. You really have to abuse it to make it quit.

    Love this review. In 2023 i just bought a 2014 with the same 2.4 and trim level.
    Love the car and agree with everything you said especially the ac! Haha so cold.
    Cool to see its lasted till 2023 only has 190000 kms on it though and kept in good condition.
    Gona last me a while

    I have a 2013 2.4L 200. Excellent car! I had a Chrysler 300 several years ago. Like this 200 more. Gets excellent gas mileage.

  • @Leeeyuhhh

    Still have my father's Chrysler 200 Touring from 2013 and still doing great today! We also bought it used and the only problems we've had so far was a squeaking sound in the engine (assuming a belt or something) and a loud ticking sound from the AC when you switch temps from hot to cold, vice versa. Both were resolved by my father and fixed it by hand. At the moment I think it's about a little bit over 130,000 miles.
    I also agree how it was a bummer that it doesn't have bluetooth when other cars at the time had some. My father bought something online that acts as a bluetooth but has to be plugged in into the aux and the charging port; made it very easy so you won't have to plug your phone in anymore and just connect to the gadget's bluetooth.

    I have a 2011 Touring addition with 33,000 miles which I've owned since 2012. No problems, great car with no issues and by the way the gas tank filler door does not stick out and never has, I guess I am lucky. The car is black and sets outside all year round covered with waterproof covering when needed. I took the back seats out and removed the under sun deck shroud which allows for lots of room for my fishing gear and camping toys. I will not be trading this in anytime soon, if at all.

    Battery replacement is a pain in the butt or left head light bulb replacement. Battery is located in fender well and the battery is directly behind the head light bulb. You have to remove inner fender well to access the battery.

    • @TheGearShots

      I’d imagine the only issues might be transmission problems at that age. We put nearly 80,000 trouble free miles on it before we traded in on the Sonic.

Garbage Bluetooth, all the power windows are slower then a crank now. Tbe check engine light comes on so much i bought my own code reader. Only positives was the power in the v6 and the sound system

      I have a 2017 Chrysler 200 LX 2.4 L, bought with 7 miles on it, now has 43,000 miles. All maintenance done regularly not one issue at all. Honestly it was the 15's they were horrendous and the 16's got better the 17's are alot better I waited until it was out for about two years and I got seven grand off for it being discontinued. Comfortable highway cruiser and wanted to point out the styling of this second generation I love, I constantly have people gawk and look at it, most times they confuse it with an Audi, especially at night. I smilw everytime I get behing the wheel too

The battery will drain overnight. i have this car & I just bought 2 batteries & a good alternator & the battery drains out very night! No mechanic can figure out what's wrong.
