ENGINE
THE ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHEN AT AN IDLE OR SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A STOP. IT HAS DONE THIS NOW ABOUT 12 TIMES WITHIN THE LAST MONTH. MY CAR JUST MADE IT TO 53,000 MILES AND HAS ALWAYS HAD REGULAR OIL CHANGES AND MAINTENANCE. SO FAR, I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART. I WAS TAKING MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL YESTERDAY AND IT STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND THE ENGINE DIED. THE FIRST TIME THAT IT EVER HAPPENED I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE TO BACK OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND IT DIED THREE DIFFERENT TIMES. NO WARNINGS OR LIGHTS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC SHOP AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND...NOTHING. THE ENGINE HAS DIED AND STALLED 3 TIMES SINCE BEING IN THE SHOP.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, STEERING
TAKATA RECALL I HAVE HAD MY CHRYSLER 2015 200 FOR 3 YEARS AND SINCE I'VE HAD MY CAR IT HAS ALWAYS HAD AN ISSUE WITH ACCELERATING ON ITS ON. IT ACCELERATES WHEN YOU TAP THE BREAKS AND IT WILL ACCELERATE ON ITS ON TAKING IT OFF CRUISE CONTROL AS WELL. SO LAST WEEK MY CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR WAS PUT ON CRUISE CONTROL GOING ABOUT 60-65 MPH THEN ONCE THE BRAKE WAS TAPPED TO SLOW DOWN THE CAR BEGAN TO LOCK UP AND ACCELERATE UP TO 90 MPH. THEN AFTER THE CAR PICKED UP SPEED THE WHOLE CAR LOCKED UP STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN OR ANYTHING AND THE CAR ENDED UP HITTING A WALL. THE STATE OF WHAT CAUSE THE ISSUE IS UNKNOWN, HOWEVER I THINK THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE TAKEN FURTHER FOR AN INVESTIGATION.

SEATS
I WAS A FRONT SEAT PASSENGER IN A CHRYSLER 200 2013. WE WERE ON A CITY STREET GOING APPROXIMATELY 35MPH. THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADREST DEPLOYED WITHOUT WARNING CAUSING A VIOLENT JOLT AND INJURIES TO MYSELF. THERE WAS NOTHING THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED IT TO DEPLOY. THE ROAD WAS SMOOTH..NO POT HOLES. NOTHING HIT THE CAR. SPEED WAS NOT A FACTOR. WEATHER WAS NOT A FACTOR. IT WAS SUDDEN,LOUD AND ABRUPT.*DT*JB*DT *TP

AIR BAGS
ON JAN 3RD 2019 I HAD AN ACCIDENT (FRONT IMPACT) AND THE FRONT AIRBAGS DEPLOYED - BUT THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS - THE AIRBAGS DID NOT EVEN COME CLOSE TO MY FACE -- IT WAS 10 INCHES AWAY FROM MY FACE AND IMMEDIATELY DEFUSED. I WAS REALLY APPALLED AND I STRONGLY BELIEVE ITS A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG AND IT WAS NO WAY SAVING MY LIFE. BOTH AIRBAGS IN THE FRONT WAS THE SAME WAY. I NEED HELP FROM NHSTA TO INVESTIGATE THE CAR AND IDENTIFY IF INDEED ITS A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG SO WE CAN WORK WITH THE MANAUFACTURER

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
VEHCILE HAS SEVERAL ERROR LIGHTS THAT COME AND GO. I CANNOT GET CHRYSLER DEALERS IN BREVARD, FLORIDA TO DO WARRANTY WORK. EVERYONE IS IN DANGER AS THE CAR IS NO LONGER SAFE. I HAVE BEGGED FOR TOW INS, RENTALS AND WARRANTY DIAGNOSES. I HAVE BEGGED FOR CHRYSLER TO SEND A TRAINED REP FROM OUT OF TOWN TO INVESTIGATE. THIS HAS GONE ON FOR YEARS, NOW THE BELOW DEALERSHIPS OWNS BOTH THE DEALERS IN MY REGION AND REFUSE TO DO WORK TO DIAGNOE PER WARRANTY AT EITHER. I HAD A FREE OIL CHANGE PACKAGE FROM CHRYSLER FROM A PREVIOUS SERVICE RELATED COMPLAINT. THE DEALER SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT, I GAVE THEM ALL MY INFO. I ALSO ORDERED AN EXPENSIVE PART TO HAVE INSTALLED, WHICH IS NONRETURNABLE. I PAID FOR AND PICKED UP PART. CHECKED MY CAR IN. THEN ROSS AND CRAIG, ALSO ED O'DONNELL I WAS TOLD WERE ALL TEXTED BY ROSS AND UPON CHECKING IN VEHICLE WAS TOLD "SORRY WE WILL NOT SERVICE YOUR VEHICLE OR INSTALL YOUR PART. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE AND I WAS ALSO TOLD BY ED O'DONNELL ON A PREVIOUS COMPLAINT THAT I WAS WELCOMED TO RETURN. DID I MENTION THE PACKAGE EXPIRED SHORTLY THERE AFTER. ALSO SHORTLY THERE AFTER LEAVING THE WORK THEY DID PREVIOUSLY, THE SYMPTOMS NOW RE PRESENT THEMSELVES. IRONICALLY. ALSO, IT WAS ADMITTED BY PHONE THAT THEY HAD BACKMOFFICE DISCUSSIONS WITH ANOTHER DEALER IN THE AREA GATOR CHRYSLER. I AM NOW STUCK WITH A PART THEY WILL NOT INSTALL OR REFUND. THEY WILL NOT CHANGE MY OIL OR ROTATE TIRES. THEY WILL NOT FESSMUP TO THE VANDALISM OF MY VEHICLE THAT OCCURRED ON THEIR LOT IN 2018. THEY HAVE DESTROYED MY CAR AND NOW ALL KINDS OF ENGINE LIGHTS COME ON TO DISCREDIT ME. HEAD THE WARNING, THE BELOW DEALER IS IN QUESTION :: BONIFACE-HIERS CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM 1775 E MERRITT CAUSEWAY MERRITT ISLAND, FL 32952 DRIVING DIRECTIONS SALES 1-321-452-8181 SERVICE 1-321-452-8181 PARTS 1-321-452-8181

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHILE EXCELLERATING THE CAR WILL HESITATE. SOMETIMES THIS CAUSES THE CAR TO JERK VERY HARD, OTHER TIMES THE CAR ACTS LIKE ITS STUCK IN BETWEEN GEARS I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT A FEW TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS. WHEN I AM STOPPED AND GO TO TAKE OFF IT WILL ALMOST STOP AND THEM JUMP FORWARD REAL FAST. OTHER TIMES IT JUST JERKS A FEW TIMES AND TAKES OFF. WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT MY CAR IT SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL ON IT'S OWN A FEW TIMES. THIS STOPPED ONCE AN UPDATE WAS DONE. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT USED TO COME ON AND GO OFF. NOW IT STAYS ON. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO ADVANCE AUTO AND THE SCAN TOOL WILL NOT READ ANY CODES. THE RADIO, TOUCH SCREEN AND STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS WILL RANDOMLY STOP WORKING. I HAD AN ALERT POP UP SAYING THE ENGINE TEMP HOT AND SERVICE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL. THE CAR HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT A HEADACHE. MY BASIC WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
