Pleasr Scotty give us a simple laymans explanation of torque vs horsepower
Hey Mr. Scotty. Do you know of any shops (maybe even yours) that is able and willing to turn around my 1969 Chevy C10 with a 3 speed tranny? It needs a complete turn around. It does run and drive. Asking for heeeelp!!!
@@McCurtainCounty888 Oh, that's easy. Understeer means the front of the car hits the wall, oversteer: the back of the car hits the wall, Horsepower: how fast the car hits the wall, Torque: how far the car pushes the wall.

@@christophersanchez7130 I own a Dart which is what the chassis that's also under the 200 was developed from the Alfa Romeo Giulietta for. Trust me I didn't watch his video. I got to where he called it a Lancia and couldn't take anymore. 🤦♂️
Yikes! Don't buy it! 😳😜😂
I'm proud of my 200 with 150k miles with almost no issues only had to replace a water hose to the radiator and it was only $250. Other than oil changes, new tires and brakes, I've had no major issues. Love my 200
I bought mine brand new in 2015 and still have it and have never done any work on it outside of brakes and oil changes.
How often do you get an oil change
@@demarcusds95 4000-6000 miles

I thought he was going to say the back seats flip down so you can carry an extra engine...
back seat is for the optional carry on mechanic.
Lol
😂😂😂😂
Hahahahahahaha lol
He has no clue. The engine is noisey due to the MultiAir valve actuators that can control each individual valve independently. The engines are made in the USA of an Italian design. There are tons of these engines in Fiats, Jeeps, Dodge and others. I inspect used cars for a living, and have seen lots of these engines with lots of miles. The weak transmissions are no worse than Nissans, Ford's, GMs . What I see most with these cars are the people that bought them did not take care of them. Same with most GM cars.
That aligns with my experience. After 105k miles, my 2012 200S Flex Fuel is running great. But I stayed up on basic maintenance, oil changes etc. I have no major issues. The worst thing was at 80k miles my alternator died had to replace it. And now at 100k Ive only had to recharge AC two or three times. THis year after 12 years I'm having to go thru an EVAP light driving cycle. But again 12 years old and over 100k miles. Im satisfied. And looks do matter!!
I have a 2016 with 116k miles, radiator cracked at 110k other than that no issues@@curtebo

How's Hank ?
Diablo Hellson good!
I rented a Chrysler 200 for a week back in 2017. Car was awesome. Loved it 👍🏼
I rented the Dodge Durango and I thought it was awesome. Came loaded with all the creature comforts.
I'd have loved mine too, if I only had it for a week. After the first week it became a nightmare, and I've spent way way way too much just keeping it going. Very hard to work on, very expensive parts, the convertible model I have is a horror to diagnose when the top starts malfunctioning, and it's a money-pit. Can't wait to trade it in for a Lexus, and I hope the dealer I trade it in to likes Chrysler as much as you do!
Bought my 2015 200c with the 2.4 with 232,000 miles on it. Just rolled it over 278,000 miles. Still running great. Havent had any major issues with it. Routine oil changes. Changed spark plugs.Flushed coolant. Brake pads. Maintain it. It'll last.
Take my car to Scotty to have some work done..
One hour later....

The gift that keeps on givin 🤩
No, its cause you didn't like doing dolly jobs. Any tow truck driver likes front or rear due to not having to dolly the vehicle.
Owned mine for 5 years no problems at all and is very comfortable. Also looks better than any toyota camry sir.
did u buy yours used ?
Yes I did. 1 owner
Oh yeah, sooo stylish, lol!
Great cars super reliable I've beat mine up for 7 years and it's never let me down best car I've ever owned !
I brought mine used 1 owner and it started having problems a month after I brought it and every time I take it to the dealership to fix the problem they fix it the check engine light goes off but anywhere from a hour and 24 hours later the check engine comes back on and it’s a whole different code/problem
The 2.4 in the 200 (and jeep cherokee/compass and dodge dart, Ram City) is produced in Dundee Mi. It was first designed during the DiamlerChrysler days, first seeing production in 2007. The engine was substantially upgraded in 2013, including the usage of Fiat's multi-air variable valve timing system. And the engine produces 184hp.
What 2.4L is in the 2006 dodge stratus sxt? My 06 dodge stratus sxt has 193,260 runs just fine no knocks or ticks in the motor
I got a 2012 2.4 200 engine got 155k and still running good with the 6 speed Auto.

Header says "Worst car" and thumb shows a Chrysler.
I was like: That's a plausible claim.
But it's the wrong Chrysler, it's supposed to be a PT Cruiser, not 200. I'm sick and tired of you guys belittling the PT Cruiser as the worst car in the world and excluding it from the worst car lists (if made).
@@brianlee5649 I never heard of anyone calling the PT Cruiser the "worst car" it's just boring. It's a car for grandma and people that dont' have money for anything except a PT Cruiser. It's a car no one wants, but when you have no other options, you'll be glad to have.
Most of them are in somewhat decent shape since older people owned them.
They're shitty cars, they're boring cars. No one buys a PT Cruiser because they want it.
But they're far from the worst.
@@kasuraga somebody's been listening to RCR on the PT Cruiser.

PURR UP YOUR ENGINES!!! Your Cat Rules Scotty! :) My income won't let me get a newer vehicle, with full coverage insurance, and car payment! ugh....
@@captinbeyond They still do, but they used to too.
I was a Chrysler tech for years. We actually didn't have a lot of problems with these or the Dodge Darts. The 2.4 was famous for needing the thermostat. Yes they are very difficult to work on, but if you take care of it and change the oil regularly like anything else, it will be fine...and God help you if the Evaporator core starts leaking.
The thermostat is exactly the only issues I’ve had with my 2.4l. And I mean ONLY. Regular maintenance and it’s 212,000+ owned it since new in 2015.
I have a 2015 Chrysler same car in this video got it with 1400 miles 2014. Still own it. And I can say it’s been good to me 85k miles now and no problems just the recalls and everything was fixed. Only thing I need. Do is change the brakes now
Marketing Tip: Call it the Chrysler Celica
The thumbnail kinda looked toyota😂
Good idea, and sell only '94 celicas
4:29 scottys attempt at being Italian lmfao
Cool 200 😂😂😂😂
Omg I laughed so hard lol
I died🤣
I died lmaoooo

I drive a 2015 200c with the 3.6. Great car in my opinion. Very quiet on the road but you can really hear that sweet exhaust note when you get on the gas. Fast enough to put a smile on my face but also can get over 30 mpg on the highway.
I bought a brand new 2013 Dodge Dart GT, fully loaded, same exact engine as this Chrysler. Drove the piss out of it (probably cuz I was mad it wasn’t a v8). Had one strange electrical issue but all they had to do was reset the computer or something. Free. Never once had another electrical problem. Everything worked. Changed my oil religiously every 5k miles (manual said 8k I believe). 137k miles later a deer totaled it. I honestly miss that car, lots of great tech and not bad for a four banger. Maybe I got lucky, maybe it just comes down to people taking care of there cars. I took care of mine and she treated me well.
I had a 2015 Chrysler 200c with the same 2.4 engine. I probably did the same thing as you I drove that car everywhere I would find any excuse to drive it lol I loved it it had better tech than anyone’s car I knew and it never did me wrong.
I have 2015 200 limited 156000 and still going no issues!
Cars run as good as their owners let them
Chrysler = Corporate Has Recommended You Start Learning Electrical Repairs
Yeeeuuuuppp
Don Chrysler = we stopped making compact and midsize sedans so you don’t have to buy them.
It’s funny how Ford and General Motors followed Chrysler a few years later and stopped making most cars for the USA. Instead of trying to compete with the competition and improve their cars they just gave up altogether.
IDK, I have a 2009 Charger going strong, v6 power. I've had one repair to the traction control. Other than that, brakes, tires. That's it.
@@bluetwinbill794 Chargers are all good because they're actually ironically just better built than the Chrysler equivalent.

My father in law criticize me when I buy my wife a Kia Spectra 2001, at the same time he bought a Chevy Silverado same year.
We drove that Spectra until it have 285,000 miles same engine, same transmission,no major problems just maintenance perform by myself, timing belt every 60,000 miles.
My father in law truck transmission when out at 165,000 miles, he had to replace the alternator and the a/c compressor as well.
I stop believing in what people say loooong time ago.
If you like your car, that's all it matters.
Just take care of the vehicle.
With care you can run any car forever.
I have the same model. How many times did you have to fix the A/C?
Hey Scotty my 2016 Chrysler 200s has 225,000 miles I’m the original owner and haven’t had any issues. Car is in great looking shape too. All I did was change brakes twice and tune up at 100k. Actually a good car lol
Classic Scottyism: 6:15 "...There must be something right with the world because they don't make these things anymore".

😆 love Scotty.
By any chance has he ever done a review on a buick lacrosse 2011 cxs
Yea so much so that I said fck a car and just ride the bus.
Thanks for this vid Scotty, when that 200 came out, I was driving a Sebring!
And I thought that 200 was beautiful, I went and test drove one, I knew more about it than the salesman and he seemed to get some attitude about that and I just left and saved my money.
Scotty forgot to say 'stupid beauty cover' when taking the plastic engine cover off.

it’s a Chrysler, the whole design is stupid
When I lived in the UK the transmission in my Honda Jazz (Fit) started to fail. I purchased the vehicle new, and even though the mileage was still low it was just outside of the warranty period. I took it along to the dealer and not surprisingly they did not want to know and told me they would not fix for free. I called Honda UK and they agreed straightaway to cover the cost, they admitted they were aware of the transmission problems with some of these cars and were very very helpful. Honda UK contacted the dealer the same day and told them under no uncertain terms that they must fix the problem for free, sure enough I got a very apologetic call from the dealer and they agreed to replace the transmission at no cost. Lesson is, don't take no for an answer, especially from a dealer.
Honda UK paid dealer to fix your car. Before they didn't have that agreement ...
@@EDDIEcodename47 Yep, and thank goodness, I would have been left quite a bit poorer. I guess my main point is if the dealer tells you no take it higher.
Try that with Subaru and see how they respond....
Mats Andresson yep, maybe I got lucky
@@robbflynn4325 Did you have the CVT or the manual? The CVT's are known to be pretty weak transmission tbh. I'm glad you got your issue sorted :)

I own a 2017 Chrysler 200 with 74000 miles. Maintenance and upkeep kept up with. No issues. If any it was under warranty. I have bought an extended warranty just to ensure zero out of my pocket. Once paid off keeping it for a few years. Next Honda or toyota
I remember Dale Gribble quoted that FIAT saying on the first episode of King of the Hill. Lol
4:54 I think your cat pillow escaped, Scotty.
Just the manager inspecting the workplace.
😅
All Fiat MultiAir engines make that noise even brand new. MultiAir engine's intake valves uses a valve tappet (cam follower), moved by a mechanical intake cam, which is connected to the intake valve through a hydraulic chamber, controlled by a normally open on/off solenoid valve. Those valve tappets and on/off solenoid valves are noisy
Sound like typical Chrysler garbage
So far you've saved me from buying two money pits, the first was a used Mercedes and this was the 2nd one. Dealer was reallly trying to push that Chrysler 200 but when I asked how many came back to the service department with issues the manager and salesman got silent.
I’ve owned a 2015 200S for about 4 years and haven’t had a single issue with it. It’s have 95K miles and runs great. Idk maybe it’s a 50/50
Wow, this vid is just a gem! Thanks Scotty!!

Customer: Scotty will you change my oil.
Scotty: Sure thing.
Scotty: A Chrysler, let the roasting begin.
Back when the 200 came out my brother rented one and drove from airport to visit me. I rode with him about 100 miles and back , was glad to get out of that vehicle. It was difficult to get into , rode rough, noisy, power was lacking in acceleration .
My 2017 Chrysler 200 had 200m on it when I got it back in January 2018 and it now has over 51000m on it. Full synthetic oil change every 6k miles or every 3 months whichever comes first. Looks like the guy just got the sport interior trim because the 2017 200S has the 3.6l V6 AWD leather interior. Everything under the hood is original including the brakes in my 200. My engine sounds very healthy & my 9 speed auto makes it very quick.
I worked on a Rallye version, with a 6 speed about a week ago. I'm glad it left the shop, hope to never see it again.
I owned a new 4 cyl 2016 Dodge Dart and it was reliable, fun and full of features. Ended up handing it down to my son who sold it at 65,000 miles since he wanted an MX-5. Never needed repairs and was a quiet and smooth ride. Ended up buying a loaded Chrysler 200c which had been sitting on the dealer lot for 13 months. Got a 30% discount and this car now has 42,000 trouble-free miles. The Pentastar V6 offers 295 hp and when we take the car on road trips it gets 33 MPG. The suite of safety features it impressive, including blind spot alert, lane keep but the adaptive cruise control is the best option I have ever gotten on a car. We drove from Los Angeles to Oakland and once I got on the freeway near our house I didn't touch the accelerator pedal or brakes the whole way. The self-parking feature is nifty too. At the time I priced a comparably equipped Ford Fusion and the Monroney was over $43,000. My 200 was under $30,000 out-the-door and I haven't looked back since.
Scotty The 2.4 is built at Chrysler's Dundee, MI engine plant

drops?? lol
@@JDMHaze of course. Why would this video make them more popular?
Alex Armstrong It has to be up to drop first LOL, I agree
That engine sounds like a scroll saw LOL
the rattling sound sounds like a oil circulation issue. Many ,many Chryslers build up sludge because the ports are too small and the sludge simply bakes from the heat and clogs the engine ,therefore reducing lubrication.
@@trackrunner11 it's not an oil issue. It is the normal engine sound lol.

End of life for a modern Chrysler, maybe. In decades past, some Chryslers were well-engineered. A friend's family owned a sedan that lasted so long they named it Methuselah.

@@qud3913 lol let's hope not, though to be fair, if it died on my way home i wouldn't be complaining.
At 232k my tranny STARTED to slip, very impressive considering I've need touched it! Never changed the trans filter, never changed fluid, never even topped it up (of course checked it regularly).
Instead of junking it, I decided to buy a used tranny for $250 (claimed 80k miles on it) and paid $100 for a 2 YEAR UNLIMITED MILE WARRANTY. That was almost a year ago. Labor was $550 at a local guy. With fluid my total was just under $1,000.
So I still have a year warranty with unlimited miles but it shifts well, drives smooth.
Idk but i love it.
@@DHFlip18 Smart.

Thanks for acknowledging Canadians Scotty! Tell GM about Canada. Camaro's and Trucks were built in Oshawa, Ontario. The Oshawa plant built cars/trucks for a hundred years. And then GM killed the plant in late 2019. BIG MISTAKE in my opinion.
Right to the point like always, thank you

I rented one and driving on a dark road was scary. The low beams had a plastic piece in the headlights that would cut off the headlights at about three car lengths. This is fun driving at 60 MPH on the back roads
how is it the worse car u ever worked on and all u doing is changing the brake pads??
he just hates everything not american
Matteo Fabbris I mean he is not wrong, the 200 is a terrible car, loud thrashy 4 cylinder engine that viberates at idle, horrible ZF 9 speed that has poor shift quality and is known for leaving people stranded, crappy electronics that will tell you to put the car in park, but will not shift into park. Just to name a couple example of how bad this car is
@@matteofabbris7877 Wut? His favorites are from Japan or Canada.
Michael Earll My dad has a company Chrysler 200 and it’s a 2016 with over 200,000 miles on it and it runs great! And it’s surprisingly a good car. I never liked Chrysler’s but disagree with Scotty on this one.
LOL he only bad mouth it car run perfectly fine
4:31 i love scotty's kilmer Italian's accent
At 7:54 When Scotty said that thought he was going to show image of a Chevy Dealer
I have a 2015 Chrysler 200 bought it 5 year ago with 40k and now i am at 195k only have a starter replacement at 120k and it's still run like new i am hoping to put 300k on it.
Update?
Ya, your never hitting 300k lol. I have a chrystler 200 with 120 miles. Its junk and it shows.
@@jonc2914 I have bad news for you, every 200 isn’t going to run the same and it shows read the damn comments
Mine's at 213000 and still running strong I think I will be able to pass the 300000 pretty easy at this rate.
@@jdcjdc1993 exactly. Chrysler haters are sum different
That laughing cat @6:27 got me LMAO! 😁

Different years.
@@NeverTalkToCops1 That's because the resale value is stupid high, which is a good thing. 😂

Amen. People want $25k for 10 year old Tacomas with 150k when a new one costs $28k.
This review is so unfair. I'll admit to having a soft spot for FCA. Having said this the Chrysler products I've owned have been fairly reliable. I'm sure many people watching this video will also have owned FCA products which were reliable.
Also, Scotty is misinformed about the 2.4 liter engine. This world engine was a collaboration between Hyundai, Mercedes Benz, and Chrysler. Recently, Fiat added it's multi-air variable valve timing to the 2.4 liter engine. Scotty makes it sound like this engine is a Fiat design which it is not. Additionally, this vehicle was cancelled because FCA could not make a large profit on this, or any, of it's sedans. It was not cancelled due to poor quality. The 200 lives on as Jeep Cherokee. Although this engine supposedly has oil consumption issues, I read many positive reviews of this engine.
Finally, Scotty is such a Toyota fanboy it make everything he says so biased. Everyone will agree that Toyota products are better than FCA products. That said, not everybody wants to own a Toyota. I don't. Don't listen to Scotty. If you want a Chrysler 200 purchase one and maintain it correctly. I'm sure it will be a fine car.
Well said, I love my 200 and will work on it until it breaks on me. Simple problems like any other car and can be worked on if you care about your vehicle. Many nice modifications too.
I had a Fiat Grande Punto to be fair the engine was still fine when I got rid at 141,000 miles (I say fine it made the car go but was noisy) but the electrics... shocking constant problems with the tail lights and even had to replace the body computer at one point. Love the acronym Fix it again Tony very true. Like the Lotus one Lots of trouble usually serious.
it's a Chrysler, *what do you EXPECT* ?
@talldude123 HaHa
@talldude123 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Imagine Scotty as a 7 year old kid 😂😂
Q Are you saying he’s not?
I imagine him on the playground waving his hands and ranting about the poor quality of his huffy bicycle.

The tigershark 2.4l were built in Dundee, Michigan not italy. The only Fiat tech in that engine was the multiair system that replaced the intake camshaft. As the car itself it was released with terrible transmission calibrations because the release was rushed to get the current cherokee out. Once those calibrations were updated the car was actually pretty good. But the damage had been done and people stopped buying them. But suprise, the current Jeep cherokee is exactly the same vehicle with a different body.
Awesome video..Thank you..
5:18 crow sound, even the crows know the end is near for that car
Your the best man love your videos ❤️
hello and thanks!
175k on my 2011 Chrysler 300 3.6 penstar. Only problems I have are some suspension parts need replaced to improve the ride quality.
The manager at the auto dealer that i used to work to used to say that the number one thing that sells the car is the looks.
I like to puff on the Cannabis Cigar and get all schmoked up while watching the Scotty Kilmers videos

DeyviZzz - I'm glad you saw it - I thought I was seeing things again!
Brand loyalty 💯. People don't know any better so they usually buys things that they think have the best deal on or buy what their parents, friends, etc. use to drive.
So I traded out of a fully loaded 200 V6 for a dart rallye turbo 4cyl to save on gas needless to car the dart crapped out at 130k on its 2nd transmission! I’m all set with Chrysler/Fiat/Dodge crap
Crazy, my 2015 200s has over 80,000 miles and I only have done basic maintenance to it and it runs great. Admittedly I should have done more research since it was my first car I bought myself and i was much younger. But its interesting to see the car that i have grown to love is actually only mid and not pog
What u at rn?!?
I remember seeing the 200 when it first came out at the auto show. The trunk lid was broken on the display model and wouldn't stay shut 🤣
Pre-production cars are only for show and testing, so that doesn't mean anything smh.
@@Stressless2023 It means they couldn't get a 100 yr old design to work and DIDN'T TEST it. Which is exactly what they don't do on production models. They design a pos, don't test it and send it to manuf. They don't care.
@@TheGuruStud Like I said, an auto show or test car is just a pre-production prototype. They are not built to any standard.
It was probably bolted on out of alignment, that could easily happen if they rushed it together for a display model. Funny though. I do see a lot of Honda Accords do that same thing, slam the trunk a few times and it will finally latch.
SuchANiceGirl22 This isn’t exactly true all the time. Not to mention this car is a POS to begin with so I wouldn’t be surprised if Guru and the OP was actually telling the truth here. When was the last time Italians made any reliable car anyway? The engine on this specific 200 in Scotty’s video is already screaming in agony with only 50K miles.
Just looked at one of these Chrysler 200 yesterday was actually going to trade a Pontiac Vibe in on it the Chrysler had 51,000 miles did not run very good luckily we still have our Vibe with 251 thousand so far it's outlasted every vehicle we've ever owned even 140,000 MI Jeep 4.0 with five broken Pistons good job with the videos keep up the good work
I bought a 2015 200C with 295 hp 6, awd and every safety device that you could think of. No other car had a complete safety suite like this. Not Mercedes, Audi, Porsche etc. I had injured my neck and needed this to drive safely. I am at 70,000 miles with not a single problem. Why did people buy that 4 cyl ? You should talk about the C 6 cyl, a completely different vehicle.
Scotty really hates fca makes me laugh I’m sure they are but I’ve had great luck with my 15 ram! Love it
And my 98 Grand Cherokee with 254,000 miles 👍
My last 3 vehicles were Chrysler.... 2005 Grand Cherokee, 2012 Chrysler 300 and 2017 Ram 1500... I bought them all brand new and made sure maintenance was done properly.... I have never had any problems with any of these vehicles. But also none of those vehicles didn’t have FIAT parts. They were all designed during Daimler Chrysler days.
Damn now I understand why that beautiful Chrysler 200 2017 it's so cheap at Craigslist
Thank you for the shout out to Canadian cars 🇨🇦
I’ve got a 2015 Chrysler 200s with the 3.6L and AWD. I love my car! I was told by my two buddies who are both Chrysler/Jeep/Dodge techs to get the 3.6L, and not the 2.4L. They told me the 3.6L has way less issues than the 2.4L.
The 3.6 engine in my 2012 200S is the best part of the car. Suspension is falling apart, convertible top now having malfunctions, hardest car to do maintenance on of any I've ever had, and it's been a continual money-pit. Had to replace alternator, battery (twice,) computer, headlights (what a nightmare replacing bulbs! wouldn't have believed such a simple job could be so hard to do.) But yeah, that motor is great; wish the rest of the car was half as good!
Fiat/Alfa engines are pretty good in Eu, electronics are a different story ......
Hey Scotty you roasted the car pretty well!!😂 Please do a mechanic stand comedy!! You will do really great!!
Was about to get a 2016 one used but hearing you tearing it a new one apart saved me from falling on that money pit
