ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, HAD BATTERY REPLACED SINCE THE BATTERY WAS ABOUT 6 YEARS OLD. CAR HAS ONLY 29582 MILES ON IT. SEEMED TO FIX THEN WHILE DRIVING 3 MILES LATER BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. DECIDED TO TAKE TO DEALER THE MEXT MORNING. THEN WHILE DRIVING TO DEALERSHIP THE CAR BEGAN TO RAPIDLY LOSE FUNCTIONALITY WHILE WARNING LIGHTS WERE APPEARING ON THE DASHBOARDONE BY ONE UNTIL IT CAR LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING. THE TIME FROM NO WARNING LIGHTS TO COMPLETE LOSS OF ELECTRICAL FUNCTIONALITY WAS APPROXIMATELY 2 MINUTES. THE SHUT DOWN INCLUDED AN ABRUPT LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND BRAKING CAPABILITIES WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY STREET DURING DAY. I WAS ABLE TO QUICKLY COMPENSATE FOR THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND BRAKING AND STOP THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIFTING INTO A GAS STATION PARKING LOT. ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE VEHICLE INVOLVED NO CLICKING OR THE ENGINE ATTEMPTING TO TURN OVER. HAD CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. I CAN ONLY ASSUME OT MAY BE THE ALTERNATOR SINCE BATTERY IS BRAND NEW NOW. I AM WONDERING IF THIS IS PART OF CAMPAIGN #17V-435 BUT MY CAR IS A CHRYSLER 200 3.6 ENGINE 6 CYLINDER TOURING CONVERTIBLE AND THAT RECALL DOES NOT SHOW 200'S ON THE NOTICE. I HAVE NOT GOTTEN ANY RECALL NOTICIES FOR THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM.. I BOUGHT CAR BRAND NEW. I AM THE ONLY OWNER AND FAITHFULLY TAKE MY CAR TO THE DEALER FOR MAINTENANCE AND OIL CHANGES.

VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE CAR HAD ONLY 35,000 MILES WHEN THE ISSUE STARTED. THE PASSENGER HEAT IS COLD, AND THE DEFROST WILL NOT WORK, WHILE THE DRIVER'S SIDE GETS WARM, AND WILL DEFROST A SMALL AMOUNT OF THE DRIVER SIDE WINDSHIELD, AND NOTHING ON THE SIDE WINDOWS. THIS ISSUE IS A HAZARD FOR VISIBILITY IN THE WINTER. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE MATTER TO FINDS THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE CHRYSLER 200 AND HAS A REPAIR BILL OF $1500 AS THE PASSENGER SIDE HAS A BLOCKAGE OR CLOG IN THE SYSTEM.
