2015 Chrysler 200 Vehicle Speed Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

Product type codeVEHICLE
 Description of the problemWhile in cruise control, the car topped a hill and began a long, rather steep descent, gaining speed as it went. The cruise control was set for 60 mph and when the car's speed had increased to about 66 mph, the transmission downshifted and the engine raced to almost 6,000 rpm. I became flustered, took my attention from the road and began search the information display for problems. Finally i began to brake and slowed down to about 45 mph before the car began to act normal again. Dealer said i must have touched the "sport mode" shift paddles (standard on the 200c). I verified that these paddles are needlessly active even when the transmission shifting knob is in the d position and not in the "sport mode" and are extremely sensitive to the slightest touch, causing the vehicle to downshift unexpectedly. Dealer claimed there was nothing he could do about the issue!
