The fact of the matter is very few people really do maintenance on their cars or take them somewhere to have it done. what happens simple they delay doing their maintenance. Have the oil changed every 3000 miles or whatever that the manufacturer says. Rather they will get one done in six or seven thousand miles. that's the main reason why Chrysler gets a bad name. I have been a Chrysler fan all my life and I'll gladly buy somebody's Chrysler that they say they don't want because I've never seen a Chrysler or Dodge product that as long as I did my maintenance on time or had it done on time correctly that I couldn't drive well past 200,000 miles.

I had a 2013 200 Limited. I bought it with 48,000 miles and sold it with 67,000 miles. For me it was a great car. The performance was fantastic and I felt that I got a lot of car for the money I spent. I only had two abnormal issues during my ownership. First, I had an oil leak from the engine that was fixed under the powertrain warranty. Second, the hood developed a small corrosion spot near the headlight. The entire hood was replaced free of charge by Chrysler under their corrosion warranty. The only reason I sold the car was because I needed something AWD and with more ground clearance.

If I didn't have my '05 sebring (2.4l i4, 4-speed) and was looking into an affordable car, I would consider actually getting one. I've had great luck with all mine and my fiancee's chryslers (the sebring, '10 dakota (3.7l v6, 4-speed auto), '04 durango (5.7l v8, 5-speed auto), we sold our '97 t&c (3.8l v6, 4-speed auto) with 216k miles). If they're as bad as you say, I can pocket the savings from a Camry and itll financially balance out. In my experience, chryslers are only marginally less reliable, just keep up on the maintenance and it will last a long time.

Most of the problem with the Toyota was that the people would bunch the floor mat up under the gas pedal, then when the driver would press the pedal down hard the pedal would get caught on the floor mat and would stay there when you would lift your foot up. Easy problem to solve, 1. Hook your toe under the gas pedal and lift it up. 2. Turn the key off, pull to the side of the road and straighten the floor mat! OR you could just remove the floor mat all together. About 50 years ago I had a similar experience when the throttle return spring broke on the truck I was driving, instant wide open throttle. I just reached out and turned the key off, opened up the hood, found the problem, bent the spring to form a new end and was on my way in about 10 minutes.
