WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN NEUTRAL IS SPUTTERS AND THE ELECTRICAL FLICKERS. I REPLACED THE BATTERY AND IT IS STILL DOING IT. THE RPMS RANDOMLY FLUCTUATE AND IT'S NOT CONSISTENT. I FEEL LIKE THE VEHICLE IS JUST GOING TO STALL OUT AS I'M DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY. ALSO THE IGNITION BUTTON I HAVE TO HOLD ON AND CANNOT JUST PUSH THE START BUTTON. IT'S JUST NOT RUNNING PROPERLY.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
IVE HAD A CHRYSLER BEFORE. I SUSPECTED THE NEWER MODEL TO BE IMPROVED... UNFORTUNATELY FOR ME ITS JERKING LIKE THE OLDER MODEL AFTER HAVING TUNE UPS DONE TWICE. ALSO ITS GOING DEAD WHEN I TURN LEFT AND GIVING ME A MESSAGE (PERFORMANCE SHIFT DISABLED) TO PUT IT IN PARK AND TURN IT BACK ON. THE BAD PART IS IM ALWAYS ENTERING AN BUSY INTERSTATE. ITS BEEN DOING THIS NOW FOR TWO WEEKS. THE JERKING OF THE VEHICLE IS WAY TO FAMILIAR TO ME. MY LAST CHRYSLER ONCE IT STARTED IT GOT WORST AND WORST AS WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE THEN I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE RECALL ON THE VEHICLE.

AIR BAGS
AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. BOUGHT THE CAR USED FROM A DEALERSHIP IN JUNE 2019. VIN # IS NOT ON A RECALL LIST FOR TAKATA AIRBAGS. THE CAR IS AT COLLEGE, OUT OF STATE, WITH MY GRANDDAUGHTER. THE LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP IN HER AREA WILL NOT FIX THE AIRBAG PROBLEM FOR FREE BECAUSE THE VIN # IS NOT ON A RECALL LIST. I'M AT A LOSS SINCE THE COST OF REPAIR IS HIGH. I LIVE ON SOCIAL SECURITY & SHE IS GOING TO SCHOOL ON SCHOLARSHIPS. DOES SHE HAVE TO BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND POSSIBLY BE HURT BEFORE CHRYSLER WILL REPAIR THE AIRBAG PROBLEM-FREE? THE DESCRIPTION FOR THIS PROBLEM SAYS THE AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY IF THERE IS AN ACCIDENT. HOW DO I KNOW IF THE CAR SHOULD BE ON A RECALL LIST? THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THE LIGHT HAS COME ON. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN MOTION, ON A CITY STREET AND ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURS. THE LATEST OCCURRENCE WAS ON OR ABOUT THE DATE LISTED BELOW AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS STILL ON.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
AFTER REACHING 75,000 MILES, MY CAR STARTED TO STALL AND TURN OFF BY ITSELF WHILE DRIVING. I PERFORMED AN OIL CHANGE, MADE SURE ALL THE MAINTENANCE WAS UP TO DATE, ETC. IT HAS A NEW BATTERY LESS THAN A YEAR OLD, NEW TIRES, ETC. EVENTUALLY IT STALLED AND SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN WHILE STOPPED AND WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON. EVERY TIME I TRY TO TURN IT BACK ON, IT STALLS AND SHUTS OFF BUT THE SHIFTER LIGHTS BLINK REPEATEDLY. I HAVE A CODE THAT APPEARED ON A MECHANIC'S CODE READER WHICH WAS U1504. HE COULD NOT DIAGNOSE IT. CHRYSLER WOULD NOT LOOK AT IT AND WANTED $125 JUST TO DO DIAGNOSTICS. I JUST WANTED TO KNOW IF THIS WAS ONE OF THE RECALLED ISSUES AS I KNOW THEY HAVE BEEN HAVING ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION ISSUES.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
AS I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ON THE INTERSTATE, ALL OF MY LIGHTS CAME ON AND THEN IT COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. I TRIED TO START IT MULTIPLE TIMES, AND THEN WHEN IT FINALLY STARTED UP AGAIN, THE WHOLE ENGINE WAS SHAKING AND MADE MY MUFFLERS RATTLE AS WELL. THEN IT COMPLETELY SHUT OFF AGAIN. I HAVE A NEW BATTERY, FRESH OIL CHANGE, AND MY CAR HAS BEEN CHECKED FOR ISSUES AND NONE WERE FOUND. MY ENGINE HAS QUIVERED EVERY NOW AND THEN SINCE I BOUGHT IT IN JUNE OF 2016, IT IS A 2013. SOMETHING NEEDS DONE, THE COMPANY NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL BECAUSE THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE. I DID CONTACT THE CHRYSLER COMPANY AND MADE THEM AWARE OF MY SITUATION.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MY 200 VEHICLE SHOWED AN AIR BAG LIGHT 6 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE, ABOUT MAY, 2016. THEN THE VEHICLE WAS NOT RECALLED SO I IGNORED IT. THE OIL CHANGE AT THE DEALER AFTER MAY, 2016 DATE FAILED TO ADDRESS THE LIGHT. IT REMAINS ON TO THIS DATE. REPAIR ON TIRE THAT SHOWED A LIGHT WAS REFUSED ON JUNE 7, 2017. THIS TIRE LIGHT REMAINS A PROBLEM. NOW, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT GO UPHILL WITHOUT STALLING AND WILL NOT RUN WHEN IT RAINS. THE FUEL SEEMS TO BE BLOCKED BECAUSE I KEEP PUMPING THE GAS TO GO UPHILL AFTER IT STALLS. THE CAR CUTS OFF WHEN I MAKE LEFT OR RIGHT TURNS. NOW, I WARM THE VEHICLE FOR 10 MINUTES TO SHOW THE ENGINE IS READY. THE ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ON FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS. I FAILED EMISSION TESTING IN SEPT. 2019. THE TUNE UP DONE THIS MONTH DID NOT HELP. THE ENGINE LIGHT AND OTHER MATTERS CAUSED THE EMISSION TESTING TO FAIL. MY COMPLAINT IS DIRECTED TO THE GAS PROBLEM, AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL DASHBOARD PROBLEM FOR THE PAST YEAR ALONG WITH THE TIRE LIGHT.

I CAN BE DRIVING AT REGULAR SPEED BUT IF I TURN THE CORNER OR START TO DEXCELORATE OR START SLOWING DOWN, MY CAR WILL SHUT COMPLETELY OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS AND THE CAR DEALERSHIP KEEP SAYING IT'S NO RECALL ON MY VEHICLE.
