THE VEHICLE WOULD CUT OFF CAUSING ME TO SWERVE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. IT WOULD STALL WHILE DRIVING WHICH ALSO CAUSED ISSUES. THEN IT WOULD JUST NOT START AND ONCE TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE JERKED, VIBRATED AND STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FITZGERALD CHRYSLER JEEP LOCATED AT 22231 THREE NOTCH RD, LEXINGTON PARK, MD 20653, WHERE THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE WAS REPROGRAMMED. THE VEHICLE LATER FAILED TO IMMEDIATELY START WITH THE MESSAGE WAIT TO WARM WAS DISPLAYED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO FAULTY ENGINE CYLINDERS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,000.
SAYS TO SHIFT INTO PARK AND RESTART THE CAR. TAKES A FEW TRIES TO TURN ON. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND PERFORMANCE SHIFTING UNAVALIABLE NOTICE SHOWED UP. NOW IT THERE IS A HERKING MOTION EVERYTIME THE GAS IS TOUCHED.
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN I HAVE A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. WHEN I DRIVE THE CAR SOMETIMES WHEN I START IT UP IT KINDA DON'T WANT TO START. THEN IT FINALLY DOES. IT WILL STALL WHEN DRIVING WHEN I COME TO A STOP THE CAR WILL DIED BATTERY LIGHT COMES ON STEERING WHEEL GETS TIGHT AND CAR JUST STOPS. I WILL HAVE TO COST AND PULL OVER TO THE SIDE. THEN I WILL START IT BACK UP AND IT STILL DONT REALLY WANNA START BACK UP. THE RED BATTERY LIGHT COMES ON WHEN IT DIES .... THE CAR WILL START BACK UP BUT WITH ISSUES.
IN THE PAST 3 YEARS THE ACTIVE GRILLE SHUTTER HAD TO BE FIXED 3 TIMES. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD ALWAYS COME UP FOR THIS ISSUE AFTER IT WAS STATIONARY OR PARKED OVER NIGHT AND THEN THE LIGHT WOULD COME UP WHEN IT WAS TIME TO DRIVE AGAIN. FINALLY THE DEALERSHIP FIXED THE THE PROBLEM THEY SAID THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE FIXED. AFTER THE TRANSMISSION WAS FIXED MY CAR NOW OVERHEATS AFTER BEING IDLE FOR MORE THAN A FEW MINUTES. ALSO THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR WAS FIXED TWICE BUT LIT UP ON MY DASHBOARD RECENTLY AGAIN.
CAR STALLED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ONCE ON THE HIGHWAY AND I HAD TO SWERVE ON TO THE SIDE OF THE RIDE ALMOST CRASHING AND CAUSING A ACCIDENT AND THEN A COUPLE OF TIME ON THE MAIN ROAD WHICH ALSO RESULT INTO ME HAVING TO SWERVE OUT OF TRAFFIC ALMOST CAUSING A ACCIDENT. THE CAR WILL TELL ME PUT IT IN PARK I DID THAT AND THEN SOMETIMES IT WILL START UP SOMETIME IT WON'T .
MY CAR WAS REPAIRED FOR A RECALL IN 2016 FOR THE POWER DISTRIBUTION CENTER. RECENTLY THE CAR HAS BEEN DYING OUT WHILE STOPPING, IN DRIVE THRU AND WHILE WAITING IN TRAFFIC. I'VE BROUGHT IT TO 4 MECHANICS WHO COULDN'T FIND THE ISSUE. TODAY THE MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE ISSUES THE VEHICLE IS HAVING ARE IN DIRECT RELATION TO THE ISSUE THAT WAS COVERED IN THE ORIGINAL RECALL. REPAIR WAS FAULTY AND DEALER IS REFUSING TO FIX THE ISSUE THAT IS HAPPENING AGAIN.
BEGINNING AT MILEAGE 83,931 ON 4/5/2021, MY 2015 CHRYSLER 200 COMPLETELY SHUT OFF AND LOST ALL POWER WHILE SITTING IN TRAFFIC AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. THE CAR WOULD NOT BUDGE NOR RESTART FOR SERVAL MINUTES, LEAVING ME STRANDED AT A BUSY INTERSECTION DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. AFTER THE CAR RESTARTED, I DROVE HOME WHILE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS WOULD INTERMITTENTLY FLICKER AND GO COMPLETELY DARK THEM COME BACK ON AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED. TODAY, 4/6/2021, MY CAR SHUT COMPLETELY OFF, NO POWER AND NO WARNING, ONCE AGAIN LEAVING ME STRANDED FOR MINUTES BLOCKING TRAFFIC. THE CAR, ONCE AGAIN RESTARTED AFTER WAITING APPROXIMATELY SIX MINUTES. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND CAN CAUSE A SERIOUS CRASH AND POTENTIALLY KILL ME, MY CHILDREN, AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD DUE TO THE CAR SHUTTING OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE TRAVELING IN IT. AFTER THE INCIDENT OCCURRING TODAY, THE CAR BEHAVED AS IF IT WERE GOING TO SHUT OFF WHILE IN MOTION; HOWEVER, I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT THE REST OF THE WAY HOME WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT.
VEHICLE WAS PARKED FOR 30 MINUTES. CAME OUT OF STORE AND CAR WOULD NOT START. CHANGED THE BATTERY IN STORE PARKING LOT AND STILL WOULDN'T START BUT THE BATTERY LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT WERE ON.
CAR JUST STOP WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN AT A COMPLETE STOP THE CAR JUST LOSE LOSES POWER WON'T MOVE WAIT A FEW SECONDS IT JUST TAKE OFF
WHEN THE CAR COMES TO A STOP FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME IT SAYS TO PUT IN PARK. THEN IT WON'T GO BACK INTO DRIVE SO I HAVE TO TURN OFF AND RESTART. IT HAS A HARD TIME RESTARTING AFTER THAT.

THE CAR CAN BARELY HANDLE HIGHWAY SPEED LIMIT OF 70, THE BUMPS OR GROVES IN THE ROAD ALMOST FEEL LIKE IT'S PUSHING THE CAR AND IT WILL SPIN OUT (THIS IS IN DRY WARM WEATHER). I'VE CHECKED THE TIRES THEY ARE FINE. THE ENTIRE SUSPENSION IS BAD AND NEEDS REPLACED. THE CHARGING SYSTEMS FOR YOUR PHONES DON'T ALWAYS WORK, IT'S OFF AND ON. THE CHARGERS WORK JUST FINE IN THE HOUSE SO IT'S NOT THE CORDS ITSELF. WAS SHOWN THE CARFAX BEFORE BUYING AND THERE ARE NO ACCIDENT REPORTS.

I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 65MPH WHEN MY VEHICLE STARTED TO SLOW DOWN TO 20MPH WITH ALERTS SAYING THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE INSPECTED, THE SHIFT PARK GEAR NEEDS TO BE INSPECTED AND PLEASE PUT VEHICLE IN PARK BEFORE YOU COME TO A ROLLING STOP. ONCE I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER ON THE HIGHWAY THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T ALLOW ME TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK. I THEN HAD TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE TO FORCE IT INTO PARK. AFTER I SAT FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES IT ALLOWED ME TO MOVE FURTHER DOWN THE HIGHWAY BUT DID IT AGAIN IN AN VERY BAD PART OF THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO REPEAT THE STEPS TURN OFF THE VEHICLE ,PUT THE PARKING BRAKE ON THEN, TURN OFF THE VEHICLE, SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN THE ALERTS WENT AWAY BUT NOT THE ENGINE LIGHT. I WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY AND TAKE THE MAIN ROADS TO GET TO CARMAX WHERE I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE. I WAS TOLD MY CAR WOULD HAVE TO BE IN THE SHOP FOR 2 WEEKS THAT IT HAS TO BE SHIPPED TO CHRYSLER BECAUSE MY VEHICLE HAS TO BE REWIRED ENTIRELY THAT IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. I HAD THIS CAR 2 YEARS NO ISSUES SO IMAGINE MY FEAR. I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. AS I WAS TALKING TO MY CO-WORKER SHE HAD THE SAME CAR SHE SAID THIS WAS A RECALL THAT HER VEHICLE DID THE SAME THING A YEAR AGO AND SHE HAD TO GET IT FIXED.
THE CAR STARTS THEN SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES IN DANGEROUS SITUATIONS ON THE ROAD. THE CAR WON'T START BACK UP FOR A FEW MINUTES, THEN DRIVES FINE AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS MOST OFTEN WHICH CAR SITS UNUSED OVERNIGHT. MOSTLY HAPPENS IN THE START OF DAY.
STARTED THE CAR AND THERE WAS NO POWER STEERING AND COULDN'T TURN THE WHEEL. THERE IS NO PLACE TO CHECK FOR POWER STEERING FLUID. IF YOU TURN THE WHEEL TO THE RIGHT, WHEN IT WORKS, A AIR COMPRESSION NOISE IS MADE. TURNED IT OFF AND BACK ON AND IT WORKED. STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN AND IT QUIT WORKING AGAIN.

MY CAR IS STARTING AND IT IS SAYING IT'S BECAUSE THE ENGINE NEEDS TO WARM UP BUT NO MATTER HOW LONG I WARM THE CAR FOR I CAN'T SEEM TO START IT. I'VE SEEN A LOT OF PEOPLE ONLINE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE BUT NOBODY HAS FOUND A SOLUTION.
VEHICLE RANDOMLY SHUTS OFF WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION WHEN I DECELERATE. THIS TYPICALLY HAPPENS WHEN I'M GOING LOW SPEEDS ABOUT 25-20MPH. I'VE BROUGHT MY VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICING 2X FOR THIS SAME ISSUE AND IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN
WHEN I PURCHASE THE VEHICLE THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON AND HAVEN'T WENT OFF YET AND I HAD THE VEHICLE SINCE SEPTEMBER 2020. ALSO WHEN IT RAINS FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME AND I USE MY WIND SHIELD WIPERS THEY WILL NOT GO OFF I HAVE TO TAKE THE FUSE OUT FOR THEM TO STOP FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. I'VE SPOKE WITH THE PLACE I GOT THE CAR FROM AND THEY STARTED THAT THE WARRANTY DOESN'T COVER THE ISSUES THAT THE CAR PREVIOUSLY HAD BEFORE I PURCHASED IT WITHIN THE 30 DAYS I PURCHASE THE CAR AS WELL.
THE FRONT BLINKER LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING BUT ONLY WHEN LIGHTS ARE OFF THEY ONLY WORK WHEN LIGHTS ARE ON OR ON AUTOMATIC
FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR
IN THE MORNING I WAS BACKING INTO A PARKING SPOT WHILE SLIGHTLY TURNING AND THE CAR STARTED ACTING UP AND THEN DIED. WOULDN'T START WITH START BUTTON. AFTER PLACING THE REMOTE NEXT TO START BUTTON AND WAITING A BIT I WAS ABLE TO START IT UP AFTER A FEW TRIES. FINISHED PARKING. AFTER WORK, I WAS DRIVING HOME AND WAS WAITING TO TURN AND DO UTURN AND THE CAR ONCE MORE DIED. NOT SURE IF I WAS COMPLETELY STOPPED OR INCHING FORWARD WHILE WAITING FOR INCOMING TRAFFIC TO CLEAR. TRIED STARTING IT UP AGAIN THE SAME WAYS AS IN MORNING. THE CAR WOULDN'T START. AFTER STANDING 5 MINUTES IN A TURNING LANE, I GOT IT TO START. FINISHED THE DRIVE HOME WORRYING. ALSO WHILE DRIVING, TIME FROM TIME, ALL OF THE DASHBOARD FLICKER AND THEN GO COMPLETELY DARK. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, THEY COME BACK ON. THAT IS SPEED, RPM, GAS LEVEL, ENGINE TEMPERATURE, AND ALL OTHER DASHBOARD LIGHTS. CAUSES DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING AND ALSO RESULTS IN ME BEING UNABLE TO SEE SPEED THE CAR IS TRAVELING AT.
CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE BRAKING, AND TURNS EVERYTHING OFF. IT ALSO 'LOCKS' THE BRAKE, AND TAKES MINUTES TO RELEASE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS ALL LIGHTS TURN OFF, PUSH TO START WON'T WORK, AND ENGINE WILL NOT START. THE CAR CUTS OFF AT THE MOST INOPPORTUNE TIMES, AND MAKES DRIVING EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. IT'S BEEN SHUTTING OFF MORE FREQUENTLY, AND FOR LONGER MOMENTS AT A TIME. THIS USUALLY OCCURS ON STREET'S BUT HAS OCCURRED IN TWO DRIVE-THRUS. ON ONE OCCASION THE CAR SHUT OFF MID-TURN. AGAIN THIS MAKES DRIVING INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS, AND IS FRUSTRATING AND INCONVENIENT. THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION SO DRIVING HAS BECOME A RISK.
MY DEALERSHIP HAVE NOT RETURNED MY MULTIPLE CALLS ABOUT FIXING THE RECALL.
VEHICLE WILL NOT GO INTO THE "PARK" TRANSMISSION SETTING. RED LIGHT WITH AIR BAG WARNING.
FOR THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY CAR STARTING. THERE ARE NO INDICATORS THAT THERES ANY ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE. IT JUST TAKES ABOUT SEVERAL SECONDS TO GET A CRANK IN ORDER FOR THE CAR TO COME ON. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO GET IT LOOKED AT TO SEE WHAT THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM WAS. NO ISSUES WITH THE BATTERY OR STARTER. I HAD THE SPARK PLUGS CHANGED WITH AN OIL CHANGE AND STILL THE SAME ISSUE. SINCE THEN FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS UPON MY INITIAL START FOR THE DAY MY CAR HAS SHUT OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE RESIDENTIAL ROAD LESS THEN A MILE IN IT STOPS OUT OF NOWHERE LOCKS THE CAR UP SO IM UNABLE TO STIR THE CAR AND TELLS ME TO PART THE CAR IN PARK. AFTER THAT IM UNABLE TO GET THE CAR TO START AGAIN AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS THEN IT'LL FINALLY CRANK BACK UP AFTER PUTTING THE KEY FLOB NEXT TO THE PUSH START BUTTON. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY CAR. THIS IS DANGEROUS THANK GOD I WASNT ON THE HIGHWAY NOR WHERE CARS BEHIND ME. I HAVE CHECKED FOR RECALLS ON MY CAR AND ITS NOT INDICATING ANY FOR MINE IN PARTICULAR BUT THERE ARE RECALLS ON 2015 CHRYSLER 200 MODELS. MY CAR ISNT UNDER WARRANTY AND HAS OVER 100 THOUSAND MILES.
WE REPLACED A FUEL INJECTOR ON THE 2ND CYLINDER LAST FEBRUARY IN OUR CHRYSLER 2015 200S. WE BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW. HERE IT IS 11 MONTHS LATER WE ARE REPLACING THE FUEL INJECTOR ON THE 6TH CYLINDER. I TALK WITH SOMEONE AT FCA AND HE GAVE ME THE RUN AROUND, REFERRING ME TO WARRANTIES AND NOT REALLY TRYING TO HELP AND OF COURSE DENYING THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL INJECTORS IN THAT PARTICULAR CAR. I KNOW THERE CAN BE ISSUES WITH INJECTORS IF YOU DO NOT SERVICE THEM, WHICH WE GOT THE SERVICE, BUT SHORTING OUT; THERE IS A PROBLEM. THE CAR IS 5 YEARS OLD AND SHOULDN'T HAVE FUEL INJECTOR PROBLEMS; SHORTING OUT ESPECIALLY. ANYONE ELSE HAVING THIS ISSUE?
THE VEHICLE WOULD CUT OFF AFTER STARTING & DRIVING A VERY SHORT DISTANCE THEN THE CHECK ENGINE/FLASHING LIGHTNING BOLT WOULD COME ON. ONCE THE CAR WAS OFF AND THEN RESTARTED, THE LIGHTS WOULD GO OFF AND IT MIGHT RUN FINE AS LONG AS YOU DIDN'T ACCELERATE TOO QUICKLY & DROVE A GOOD DISTANCE WITHOUT HAVING TO STOP AND START A LOT. THE ISSUE WOULD ARISE MORE WHEN DRIVING SHORT DISTANCES WITH CONSTANT STOPS & TIGHT TURNS OR SOMETIMES WHEN HAVING TO DE-ACCELERATE QUICKLY. ONCE THE CAR WAS OFF FOR A SECOND THEN RESTARTED, THE ONLY LIGHT THAT WOULD SOMETIMES STAY ON WOULD BE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THEREFORE, I TOOK THE CAR TO AN O'REILLYS FOR A FREE TEST & THE ONLY CODES THAT CAME BACK WAS P0302 - CYLINDER 2 MISFIRE & P2172 - THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL SYSTEM. THE ISSUE HAD GOTTEN WORSE SO I HAD A MECHANIC REPLACE ALL 4 SPARK PLUGS WITH NGK IRIDIUM PLUGS AND THE 2ND CYLINDER IGNITION COIL WITH A BOSCH IGNITION COIL. THE CYLINDER 2 MISFIRE CODE WENT AWAY WHEN RESTARTING THE VEHICLE BUT THE MAIN ISSUE PERSISTS, THE CAR WON'T STAY ON & THE P2172 TACS CODE IS STILL PRESENT. THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE & UNABLE TO DRIVE. THE DATE I'M USING FOR THE QUESTION OF WHEN THE ISSUE HAPPENED IS WHEN I HAD THE SPARK PLUGS AND IGNITION COIL REPLACED. THE ORIGINAL ISSUE STARTED AROUND THE 2ND WEEK OF DECEMBER SOMEWHERE BETWEEN DECEMBER 10TH-DECEMBER 14TH.

TEMP/ENGINE LIGHT ISSUE CAME ON DURING HIGHWAY TRAVEL. STALLING USUALLY OCCURS ON CITY AND RESIDENTIAL STREETS. BOTH IN MOTION.

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
