THE CAR SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING LEAVING ME STRANDED 10 MILES FROM HOME. I NOW BELIEVE IT HAPPENED ONES BEFORE, THE CAR WAS TOWED AND ON A WHIM THE DRIVER TURNED THE KEY AND THE CAR STARTED.

MY VEHICLE STALLED FOR THE FIRST TIME OF OVER 100X ON MAY 19, 2019 JUST AS I WAS ENTERING A HIGHWAY. IT HAS SINCE STALLED DRIVING IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC FAST AND AT RED LIGHTS. AS A MATTER OF FACT IT JUST HAPPENED AGAIN AS I WRITE THIS COMPLAINT.

MY PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW DOES NOT COME BACK UP AFTER BEING LET DOWN, USING THE DRIVER WINDOW BUTTON OR THE PASSENGER BUTTON. I HAVE REPLACED THE MOTOR, THE SWITCH AND REGULATOR BUT SAME ISSUE. I HAVE RESEARCH AND LOOKED ONLINE WHERE THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM EVEN AFTER THE INDIVIDUALS REPLACED ALL PARTS FROM 2004- UP UNTIL NOW.

WITH THE WIPERS ON, ALL OF A SUDDEN, THEY WILL START TO SKITTER ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD THEN STOP AND START AGAIN THEN SPEED UP AND SLOW DOWN. IF THEY ARE TURNED OFF THE WIPERS WILL CONTINUE TO RUN THEN FINALLY STOP HALFWAY IN THE GLASS THEN FINALLY GOTO THE RESTING POSITION. THIS OCCURS RANDOMLY AT ANY TIME OF YEAR. I HAVE HAD THE WIPER SWITCH REPLACED HOPING THAT THE RELAY IN THE SWITCH ASSEMBLY WAS THE ISSUE BUT THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS.

I HAVE BEEN TIWED TWICE A D STUCK ON SIDE OF THE ROAD 4 TIMES. I'LL BE DRIVING ALONG WHEN EVERYTHING JUST QUITS. ENGINE, POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. ONE TIME I WAS JUST ABOUT TO GET ON A HIGHWAY. COULDN'T GET CAR 100% OFF ROAD. VERY DANGEROUS. WHEN I TRY TO RESTART CAR IT TRYS TO START. I LET GO OF KEY AND CAJR JUST KEEPS TRYING TO START. AFTER BEING TOWED TWICE CAR STARTED RIGHT UP. SO WHEN IT QUITS I GIVE IT ABOUT 10-15 MINUTES AND IT STARTS. GOOGLED AND PEOPLE HAVING SAME PROBLEM. UPON INVESTIGATING I FOUND THAT CHRYSLER, JEEP HAS BEEN HAVING THIS PROBLEM SINCE 2011 AND DID A RECALL ON THE 2015S. IF THEY KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM, WHY AREN'T THEY FIXING IT??

I HAVE REPLACE THE AIR ACTUATOR DOOR TWICE WHAT SEEMS TO BE THE PROBLEM WITH THIS HE KEEPS BREAKING MAKING A CLICKING SOUND

TRANSMISSION IS GOING AFTER JUST 8 YEARS OLD!!!!!

2012 CHRYSLER 200 ENGINE DIES WITHOUT WARNING WHEN DRIVING. RESTARTS AFTER 45 TO 60 MIN. CAR DIES ANYTIME, IN HEAVY TRAFFIC ON 2 OCCASIONS - NO POWER STEERING, VERY HARD BRAKEING AND NEARLY CAUSING ACCIDENT. DIED IN FREEWAY TRAFFIC

THE ABS AND TERRAIN LIGHTS STAY ON, WHEN CAR REACHES 60 MPH IT PULLS.

THE CAR CONSISTENTLY STALLS OUT AT LEAST 4-6 TIMES A TRIP IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING, IF NOT MORE. IT ALSO HONKS ON ITS OWN DURING THAT TIME. IT WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND A SHOP AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG

HEAD REST ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DEPLOYED ON ITS OWN. LOOKS LIKE THE PEACE OF PLASTIC THAT HELD THE HEAD REST TOGETHER BROKE. THIS WAS PLASTIC ON METAL ROD. AT THE TIME WHEN THIS HAPPEN NO ONE WAS SITTING ON THE SIT. WE WOULD OF HAD A VERY BAD HEAD INJURY IF SOMEONE WOULD HAVE BEEN THERE.

THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT STARTED WITH THE PRIOR OWNER OF THE VEHICLE BUT THE CONNECTING RODS IN THE ENGINE ARE FAILING THE HAZARD SWITCH DOES NOT WORK AND THE TRACTION CONTROL DOES NOT WORK I NOTICED ATLEAST THE CONNECTING ROD WAS A SAFETY RECALL AND VIN SPECIFIC IT WAS NOTICED WHEN THE CAM SHAFT STARTED MAKING NOISE DUE TO DEBRIS

CAR RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING 'SHIMMIES'. THE WHOLE CAR WILL SHAKE.

MY ABS LIGHT HAS TURNED ON.AND MY ABS ISN'T WORKING.ALSO MY RADIO ALSO IS ONLY WORKING INTERMITTENTLY.

I JUST HAD MY CAR PRE PURCHASE INSPECTED AND IT WAS REPORTED TO BE IN GREAT CONDITION. THEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY ENGINE HAS STALLED TWICE IN THE LAST 72HOURS, WHEN COMING TO A STOP. I AM ABLE TO TURN IT BACK ON, HOWEVER FEAR FOR MY SAFETY NOW WHENEVER I DRIVE IT. THESE EXACT ISSUES HAVE BEEN REPORTED WITH OTHER 2012 CHRYSLER 200 MODELS, DUE TO CONNECTING ROD BEARING FAILURE AND I BELIEVE THIS MODEL HAS BEEN SIMILARLY EFFECTED. I FEEL LIKE I SHOULD BE ENTITLED TO A ENGINE RECALL AS WELL, DUE TO THE IDENTICAL ISSUES THAT I AM EXPERIENCING.

DRIVER SIDE ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT DEPLOYED WHILE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED A CONVENIENCE STORE, WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING, HITTING THE DRIVER ON THE BACK OF THE HEAD AND STARTLING HIM. VEHICLE WAS NOT INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT OF ANY KIND. HEAD RESTRAINT COULD NOT BE RESET AND BROKEN PLASTIC PIECES COULD BE SEEN IN HEADREST.

THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS AND THE HEAD AND BACK LIGHTS WILL FLICKER ON AND OFF. THE CAR HAS SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVIING IN TRAFFIC. SOMETIMES IT DOESNT START AT ALL , I HAVE TO BAQNG THE DOOR AND THEN THE LOGHTAS WILL COME ON. I PUT A BRAND NEW BATTERY AND ALTINTOR IN THE CAR AND MY NECHNANIC DOESNT HAVE A CLUE WHAT IS WRONG WOTH IT. BELIEVE IT TO BE THE COMPUTER SYSTEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 80 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE STEERING BECAME DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER. THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL ODOR OF RADIATOR FLUID DETECTED IN THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE RESIDENCE.

ENGINE KEEPS SHUTTING OFF IN TRAFFIC, AT STOP SIGN. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND OFF. CAR SHUT OFF ON ME IN MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC WHICH PUT ME AT RISK FOR BEING IN A BAD ACCIDENT. THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION AND I FEAR FOR MY STAY EVERYTIME I'M DRIVING MY VEHICLE. *TR

ON JUNE 21ST, 2020 I WAS AT A RED LIGHT WHEN A VAN HIT ME IN THE REAR AND MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. ME AND MY WIFE AND KIDS WERE IN THE CAR AND INJURED. I GOT TAKING TO THE HOSPITAL RIGHT AWAY AND MY REST OF MY FAMILY WENT AFTER I WAS TAKEN IN. *TR

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 114,000.

WHEN I TURN ON THE HEAT, THE PASSENGER SIDE VENTS BLOW COLD AIR. THIS IS A PROBLEM TO DRIVE USING MY AIR/HEAT BECAUSE IT'S DRAINING MY COOLANT. THIS CAUSES MY TEMPERATURE GAGE TO RISE. THIS HAPPENS REGARDLESS OF MY CAR BEING STABLE OR IN MOTION. THIS, AT TIMES, ALSO CAUSES MY WINDSHIELD TO BECOME FOGGY. *TR

THE ELECTRICAL THROTTLE LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND THE CAR SHUTS OFF. *TR

I LEFT MY HOME, IN MY VEHICLE WHICH HAD BEEN RUNNING COMPLETELY NORMALLY WITH NO DASH LIGHTS ON, OVERHEATING, LEAKING, ETC. I LIVE ON A DANGEROUS ROAD (IT'S EXTREMELY CURVY, DARK, HAS A HIGH ACCIDENT RATE AND NO SHOULDERS JUST 12FT. DEEP CONCRETE DITCHES ON BOTH SIDES. I LEFT HOME AROUND 9:35PM AND MADE IT APPROX. .5-1 MILE AND BRAKED SLIGHTLY TO TAKE A SHARP CURVE, AND WITH NO WARNING MY ENGINE STALLS COMPLETELY (ALSO CAUSING LOSS OF POWER STEERING). I WAS DOING ROUGHLY 25-30 MPH. WHEN THE ENGINE DIED. THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING CAUSED ME TO BE UNABLE TO KEEP MY VEHICLE SAFELY IN MY LANE ON THIS SHARP TURN (I WAS JUST LUCKY THAT THE ONCOMING LANE WAS CLEAR). LUCK IS ALSO ALL THAT PREVENTED ME FROM BREAKING DOWN AWKWARDLY POSITIONED RIGHT IN A DARK BLIND CURVE. I WAS ABLE TO COAST ON WHAT LITTLE SPEED I HAD LEFT, TO ONE OF THE ONLY SAFE PULL OFFS ON MY ROAD ( I BARELY HAD ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO DO THAT, AND IT WAS JUST BY CHANCE THAT I WAS BY THE SPOT WHERE IT WAS POSSIBLE TO GET OUT OF THE ROADWAY. I HAVE SEEN WELL OVER 50 ONLINE COMPLAINTS SO FAR, OF OWNERS OF 2012 CHRYSLER 200'S WHO HAVE SUFFERED FAILURES PRACTICALLY IDENTICAL TO MINE. MY VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN FOR REGULAR MAINTENANCE/OIL CHANGE JUST A WEEK OR SO PRIOR TO THIS, THE INSPECTION REVEALED NO ISSUES NEEDING ATTENTION. THE CAR RUNS PERFECTLY NORMAL RIGHT UP TO THE MOMENT YOU LOOSE ALL POWER AND YOUR ABILITY TO STEER WITH ANY PRECISION OR SPEED. THIS PROBLEM IS OBVIOUSLY FAIRLY COMMON IN THIS VEHICLE, SERIOUSLY IMPAIRS

VEHICLES STALLS WHILE DRIVING RANDOMLY, THIS COULD BE 5 MINUTES OR 2 HOURS AFTER VEHICLE IS DRIVEN, AND AFTER VEHICLE SITS FOR A WHILE, 1/2 HOUR TO AN HOUR, VEHICLE STARTS RIGHT UP WITH NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ANY HISTORY/PENDING/CURRENT CODES.. DEALERSHIP HAS ALREADY REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP BUT PROBLEMS PERSISTS. HAVE SEEN MANY SIMILAR CASES OF THIS VEHICLE STALLING AND THEN IT STARTS RIGHT UP AFTER SITTING FOR SOME TIME. *TR

THE CAR RANDOMLY LOSES POWER ALONG WITH THE POWER STEERING AND CUTS OFF. I COULD BE DRIVING FOR 30 MINS AND IT'LL BE JUST FINE THEN OUT OF NO WHERE IT MAY CUT OFF AT STOP LIGHT, WHILE I'M DECELERATING OR EVEN TRYING TO GAS UP. IT HAS CUT OFF NUMEROUS TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR LIGHT AND I'LL ONLY KNOW BY THE SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER STEERING OR NOTICING THE RPM GAUGE DROPPING TO 0. SOMETIMES IT'LL START UP JUST FINE RIGHT AFTERWARDS LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED AND SOMETIMES IT'LL TAKE A MINUTE OR TWO TO START UP. IT MAY START A RIGHT BACK UP THEN CUT RIGHT BACK OFF OR IT MAY START UP AND BE FINE UNTIL THE NEXT DAY. SOMETIMES IT ONLY STARTS BACK UP WHEN I DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL FOR A FEW SECONDS. *TR

THERE WAS COLD AIR COMING OUT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR VENTS. THIS WOULD TAKE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF TIME TO DEFROST THE WINDOWS. THE AIR WAS ABOUT AS COLD AS THE STATIC OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE. THE DRIVERS SIDE AIR WOULD EVENTUALLY HEAT UP THE ENTIRE WINDSHIELD TO SAFELY DRIVE. HOWEVER, IF IT WAS BELOW 20F OUTSIDE THE DRIVERS SIDE HEAT WOULD NOT BE HOT ENOUGH TO KEEP THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW DEFOGGED. THIS POSED A LOT OF SAFETY CONCERNS CURSING ALONG THE HIGHWAY. LATER, THIS WAS DEEMED TO BE A CLOGGED/FAULTY PASSENGER SIDE HEATER-CORE WHICH HAD TO BE REPLACED. AFTER THIS WAS REPLACED THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR IS ABOUT AS HOT AS THE DRIVERS SIDE NOW. THE DEFROST TIMES ARE EQUAL ON BOTH SIDES DURING COLD STARTS AND VISIBILITY IS BACK TO NORMAL. THE MECHANIC RECOMMENDS DOING AN ANNUAL COOLING FLUSH TO PREVENT THE HEATER CORE FROM BECOMING FAULTY IN THE FUTURE. ALTHOUGH THEY SAID EVEN THAT ISN'T A GUARANTEE TO SOLVE THE ISSUE ENTIRELY. APPARENTLY THE HEATER CORE HAS A CRITICAL DESIGN ISSUE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING CAR SHUT OFF. ALSO WINDSHIELD WIPERS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. *TR

A RECALL WAS ISSUED BY THE MANUFACTURER FOR THE EMISSIONS SYSTEM AND WE BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR REPAIR. WE WE'RE TOLD THAT THE PARTS WERE ON BACK ORDER AND WE WOULD HAVE TO HAVE IT DONE LATER. NOW, SEVEN MONTHS LATER. UPON CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP, THEY HAVE THE VEHICLE LISTED AS COMPLETE WITHOUT ANY REPAIRS.

HEATER HOSE LINE CLOGS UP WITH SLUDGE, THIS IS THEN CAUSING NO HEAT ON PASSENGER SIDE , NO DEFROST, AND LITTLE HEAT ON DRIVERS SIDE. THIS ISSUE MAKES DRIVING A HAZARD AS THE CAR WILL COMPLETELY FOG UP MAKE VISABLILTY POOR. THIS ISSUE TAKE ABOUT 30 MIN OF RUNNING THE CAR BEFORE DRIVE TO BARLEY TAKE THE CHILL OFF THE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR STARTED TO SMOKE. THE CONTACT STATED THE SHE ATTEMPTED TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE WITH WATER HOWEVER, SHE WAS UNABLE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CALLED AND EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THE CONTACT A DISABLE PERSON, WAS SCARED FOR HER SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS. THE CONTACT CALLED THE DEALER WHERE SHE SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT AND LATER TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO LONE STAR CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM DEALER, (8811 INTERSTATE 35 ACCESS RD, SAN ANTONIO, TX 78211) BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT NOW THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR FAILED TO LOCK. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND SENT OUT A THIRD PARTY AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE DOOR WAS BADLY BURNED AND THERE WAS NOTING ELSE THEY COULD DO. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY UNKNOWN.

MY SEAT POPS OUT SOMETIME WHEN DRIVING. IT HAPPENS ANYTIME WHETHER IN MOTION OR STATIONARY HENCE THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON.

THE WINDOW CONTROLS ON THE DRIVERS DOOR STOPPED WORKING. NONE OF THE WINDOWS WILL ROLL DOWN. THE CAR WAS NOT IN MOTION OR IN ANY ACCIDENT, THEY JUST STOPPED WORKING

DRIVERS SIDE HEAD REST DEPLOYED WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, IT IS VERY FORTUNATE THAT THIS HAPPENED WHILE NO ONE WAS SITTING IN THE CHAIR AT THAT TIME. MY QUESTION IS, WILL THIS ALSO HAPPEN WITH THE DRIVERS SIDE HEAD REST?

THE HEATER CORE BECOME CLOGGED PREVENTING AIR FLOW, TO DEFROST THE WINDSHIELD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR. I EVEN DID THE REGULAR SCHEDULED COOLANT FLUSHES TO PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING, AND IT STILL HAPPENED. IT BECOMES DANGEROUS AS THE VEHICLE HEATER CORE BECOMES SO BACKED UP THAT NOT EVEN A FULL HEATER CORE FLUSH CAN SAVE IT. I HAVE READ ON LINE THAT THIS IS A ISSUE THAT HAPPENS TO A LOT CHRYSLER VEHICLES, AND IT SOUNDS AS IF IT HAS TO DO A LOT TO WITH THE CAR WAS MANUFACTURED THROUGH THE SAND CAST PROCESS. THE CAR HAS OVERHEATED ALSO HAS A HARD TIME KEEPING THE CAR WARM BECAUSE OF THE CLOGGED HEATER CORE. THIS PROBLEM HAS EFFECTED MANY OF THE 200 VEHICLES , AND IM SURPRISED THAT A RESOLVE HAS NOT BE BROUGHT OUT YET., IT ALMOST GOT ME IN A ACCIDENT ON THE TURNPIKE BECAUSE I COULDN'T DEFROST THE WINDOWS.

HEAT IS NOT COMING OUT OF RIGHT SIDE VENTS, BLOWING COLD AIR. TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY FOUND AN ISSUE WITH THE HEATER CORE AND IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THERE'S A BUILD UP OF BROWN SLUDGE IN THE COOLING SYSTEM. CAR HAS 68000 MILES ON IT. THIS WILL BE THE SECOND REPLACEMENT. LAST ONE WAS REPLACED AT 37,000 MILES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH THE STEERING WHEEL CEASED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER FIVE MINUTES. WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING A LEFT TURN THE VEHICLE STALLED AGAIN. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START VEHICLE THERE WAS ABNORMAL TICKING NOISE DETECTED. THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. ADDITIONALLY, THE SPEEDOMETER WAS INOPERABLE. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED BUT NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 114,000.

I THINK MY CAR HAS ELECTRICAL ISSUES WINDOW START AND STOP WORKING . I REPLACED A HEADLIGHT AND IT STARTS AND STOPS WORKING AT ONE POINT MY STARTED STOPPED AND STARTED WORKING. MY HEADREST DEPLOYED ON PASSENGER SIDE WHILE DRIVING AND IT'S A BIG SPACE NOW ON IT

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE IN 30 DEGREE WEATHER, STARTED SMELLING SOMETHING VERY BAD COMING FROM HVAC SYSTEM AND WINDOWS BECAME VERY FOGGY. I HAD TO ROLL THE WINDOWS DOWN WITH THE DEFROST ON IN ORDER TO SEE. VISION WAS STILL IMPAIRED. AFTER LETTING IT SIT, A FILM APPEARED ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD, WHICH IS HARD TO REMOVE. FURTHER IMPAIRING VISION. PRIOR TO THIS, HEAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE STOPPED WORKING SO THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD WOULD NOT DEFROST QUICKLY. CURRENTLY HAVE IT IN THE SHOP. THEY ARE GUESSING IT'S THE HEATER CORE, A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE. ESTIMATED COST STARTING AT $900.

FUEL PUMP FAILURE, TRIGGERED HEAVY GASOLINE SMELL IN THE CAR SUFFOCATING BREATHING

CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER 20 MILES AND HOUR AFTER THE TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS LIGHT CAME ON. THE CAR THEN RAPIDLY ACCELERATED AND WORKED FINE UNTIL I REACHED WORK. WHEN DRIVING HOME IT DID IT AGAIN AND WOULDN'T RESOLVE ITSELF. I TOOK IT TO THE CHRYSLER DEALER AND 1 WEEK AND 1,200.00 LATER THEY INFORMED ME MY CAR WAS FIXED AND THAT A FAULTY SENSOR WAS THE ISSUE AND THAT IT WAS VERY COMMON.
