VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, SERVICE BRAKES
I was attempting to turn around on my street and was hit on the driver's side by an oncoming car. Immediately thereafter, I tried to pull into a nearby driveway, but the car seemed to suddenly accelerate tremendously and plowed into the back of a parked car in that driveway. I was trying to brake but had no time as the car accelerated so suddenly. It damaged my grill and the bumper of the car that was hit. It appears that other owners of the Chrysler 200C have experienced similar issues with it accelerating when the driver is trying to brake.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
My 2015 Chrysler 200 displayed the warning “Service Trans Stop Safely Shut Off Engine to Engage Park.” The vehicle has approximately 79,136 miles. I am concerned this is a safety-related transmission/park engagement defect because the warning indicates the vehicle may not properly engage Park. I am requesting that NHTSA document and investigate this issue and determine whether my vehicle is affected by an existing transmission-related recall or whether the affected vehicle population should be reviewed.

SEAT BELTS
I purchased this vehicle believing it was safe to drive. After the sale, I discovered that the driver's seatbelt was completely broken and not properly secured. This serious safety defect was never disclosed to me before I purchased the vehicle. Had I known about this issue, I would not have purchased the vehicle or would have required it to be repaired before the sale. Selling a vehicle with a defective seatbelt without disclosing the defect put my safety and the safety of my passengers at risk. I am requesting that this matter be investigated and that appropriate action be taken regarding the seller's failure to disclose this serious safety issue.

AIR BAGS
The vehicle has suffered a total failure of the passenger seat jumper wiring harness, which has completely deactivated the entire Supplemental Restraint System (SRS / Airbag system) and triggered the airbag warning light. This is a known manufacturing defect covered under an active Technical Service Bulletin (TSB). A certified Chrysler dealership previously performed a paid repair for this exact TSB defect, meaning the replacement safety component has failed prematurely. The vehicle is currently an active safety hazard on the road, as no airbags will deploy in an accident. Chrysler Corporate has refused to remedy this failed safety system, leaving the vehicle completely unprotected.
