I’m not sure but it will randomly die and have to be restarted there are times it does it more than others but every time is extremely dangerous because you essentially lose control of the car until it is restarted and it shift extremely hard sometimes like it feels like the transmission is going to fall out it jerks the entire car violently and there are numerous low voltage codes as well

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that while driving on several occasions at various speeds, the vehicle stalled. The power steering and battery warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was restarted each time, but the vehicle took a progressively longer time to restart. Eventually, the vehicle failed to restart and was towed to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed and determined that the battery needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure returned five minutes after driving off the lot. The vehicle was taken back, and it was determined that the wiring and electrical system had a communication fault, and that the vehicle needed to be taken to a dealer to be reprogrammed. The vehicle was towed to a dealer, where it was diagnosed, and it was determined that the battery cable and harness needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
While driving at approximately 60 MPH on a highway, the vehicle suddenly lost motive power, stalled, and entered "limp mode," shifting into neutral or a low gear unexpectedly. This failure caused a rapid deceleration in high-speed traffic, effectively disabling the vehicle and creating an immediate safety hazard and risk of collision. The engine stalled completely, requiring the vehicle to be coasted to the emergency shoulder. After a key cycle, the vehicle restarted but the check engine light remained illuminated. Independent diagnostic scanning retrieved Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) U0018 (Medium Speed CAN Communication Bus Short) and P0894 (Transmission Component Slipping). These specific codes and symptoms (intermittent electrical short causing stall/shift-to-neutral) are identical to the safety defects addressed in NHTSA Recall 15V-470 (FCA Recall R24 - Power Distribution Center Electrical Connector) and NHTSA 16V-529 (FCA Recall S55 - Transaxle Wiring Harness). Although records indicate Recall R24 was marked as "completed" on this vehicle in July 2015, the specific safety defect has recurred, presenting the exact same failure mode. The Authorized Dealer was contacted regarding the recurrence of this safety defect but refused to perform a no-charge inspection, citing an expired repair warranty. The Manufacturer (FCA US LLC) was also contacted to report the recurring safety failure but refused to open a case or authorize a diagnostic inspection, despite the life-threatening nature of the defect. The component and vehicle are available for inspection. The failure has not been resolved.

POWER TRAIN
I put the car in park, once I released the brake the car started jerking forward. While this was going on, the dash displayed powertrain failure. I was only able to get it to stop by turning off the car. When I turned the car on following the event, I had a check engine code: P1B13-00 "Park-By-Wire-Unintended Out of Park Position". Since that incident, the car has excessive forward roll when putting the car in park. The shifting has become unpredictable and rough, it also gets stuck in 4th gear often. I took my car to a Chrysler dealership to see if it was in recall R08 / NHTSA 15V-090, I was told it was not and that I would have to pay for them to inspect it. My car was manufactured just before the recall window.

Queja de Defecto de Seguridad por Falla de TCM y Negligencia de Recall VIN del Vehículo: [XXX] Mi vehículo Chrysler 200, año 2015, ha experimentado una falla total del Módulo de Control de Transmisión (TCM), resultando en la pérdida abrupta de potencia e inmovilización de la unidad. Esta falla no solo es mecánica, sino que representa un peligro crítico para la seguridad, ya que puede ocurrir sin previo aviso en la carretera. Mi vehículo tiene 4 Recalls de seguridad obligatorios y pendientes (U90, W84, X80, XB1). El fabricante (Stellantis) se ha negado a resolver la falla del TCM y a atender los Recalls pendientes. A pesar de haber notificado formalmente a los departamentos de México (Caso No. XXX) y a los contactos corporativos en EE. UU., la compañía ha evadido la responsabilidad por más de 7 días. Tuve que pagar por un diagnóstico que confirmó la falla del TCM (Costo de reparaciónes y diagnostico estimado a la fecha: $35,496.00 MXN). Solicito a la NHTSA abrir una investigación sobre este defecto crítico de seguridad y la negligencia del fabricante en el cumplimiento de los Recalls federales.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Friday, I was stuck in traffic when I noticed my temperature rising. I couldn’t pull to the side or turn my car off or do anything to get me safely out of the situation, my car then reached at what I last seen 275 degrees before shutting down. I had to leave my car setting as it was smoking and undrivable at this point. Later that night I got my car back home and upon further inspection my fan has abruptly stopped working, it is still getting voltage (bought a new fan) and that one also will not work either. When we checked the voltage it is backwards despite it never being worked on before. There’s electrical problems with these cars and they need addressed. I was left in 98 degree heat for almost 2 hours because of these issues. Next time it could be a woman and her children. Please fix this.

ENGINE
I’m writing to report a recurring issue with the catalytic converter on my vehicle. I had it replaced less than five years ago after the original one failed, which ultimately caused damage requiring a full engine replacement. Now, the replacement catalytic converter is failing again. I’ve owned my car for 11 years and have always taken good care of it. I find it extremely frustrating—and financially burdensome—to face potentially thousands of dollars in repairs again for what seems to be a recurring, possibly faulty issue. I’m requesting that Chrysler investigate this matter and provide assistance or a resolution, as this does not seem like normal wear and tear.
