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.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE
ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS MY 2013 CHRYSLER 200 SHUT OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING. IT APPEARED AS IF THE ENGINE WAS NOT GETTING ANY GAS. WHEN I TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE IT SOUNDED LIKE IT WANTED TO START BUT NO GAS WAS GETTING TO THE ENGINE. I. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE SHOP PUT MY VEHICLE ON THE COMPUTER AND NO ISSUES WAS REVEALED. EACH TIME THAT IT SHUT OFF I HAD A FULL TANK OF GAS TO 3/4 OF GAS. I HAD TO WAIT 45-60 MINUTES BEFORE THE CAR WOULD START AGAIN. ON 3OCT2019 I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK TRAVELING 65 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE SHUT DOWN ON ME ON THE INTERSTATE.

WHILE I WAS SITTING IN MY PARKED VEHICLE, ENGINE OFF, LEANING TOWARDS THE CENTER OF THE CAR TO ADJUST SOMETHING THE HEADREST OF THE DRIVER'S SEAT DEPLOYED UNEXPECTEDLY. IT IS UNABLE TO BE RE-ATTACHED, AND I FOUND A SMALL PIECE OF BROKEN PLASTIC IN THE REAR SEAT THAT HADN'T BEEN THERE BEFORE. HAVING LOOKED AT RECALL INFORMATION AND OTHER INCIDENT REPORTS, I BELIEVE THIS TO BE IN THE SAME CATEGORY OF SOME OTHER COMPLAINTS REGARDING HEADREST FAILURES. I WILL BE CONTACTING MY DEALER TO GET THIS REPAIRED. I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW IN 2013.

SEATS
DRIVER SEAT HEADREST DEPLOYED WHILE DRIVING ON SMOOTH HIGHWAY SURFACE AT 70MPH MAKING A LARGE NOISE AND HITTING HARD THE BACK OF DRIVER'S HEAD. THERE WERE NO LIGHTS OR INDICATION OF PROBLEMS ON THE DASH BOARD. AFTER I EXAMINED THE HEADREST THE PLASTIC HOLDING THE METAL BAR HAD DETERIORATED SO THAT THE BAR COULD NOT BE PLACED BACK IN ITS ORIGINAL SPOT, AND THE BAR WAS FOUND IN THE CLAMP BELOW. THE CLAMP WAS STILL LOCKED. THE HEADREST COULD NOT BE RESET SINCE THE PLASTIC WAS BROKEN. THE HEADREST IN THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD 3 RECALLS FOR NOT DEPLOYING IN AN ACCIDENT AND ALL HAVE BEEN SERVICED ON THIS VEHICLE. THIS VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND HAS HAD NO REASON TO DEPLOY. THE FORCE WHEN DEPLOYING CAN CAUSE NECK OR HEAD INJURIES TO THE OCCUPANT AND THEREFORE THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THE COMPANY WOULD NOT COVER REPLACEMENT AND THE TOTAL COST TO REPLACE THE HEADREST AND INSTALL CAME TO $730. AFTER DISCOUNTED WITH A COUPON FOR 12%.

AT APPROXIMATELY 3:10PM ON 8/29/19, THE CAR WAS ON AND IN PARK WITH THE AC TURNED ON, AS MY SON IN LAW WAS PLACING HIS 33-MONTH BABY IN THE CAR SEAT, LOCATED BEHIND THE DRIVERS SEAT. MY SON IN LAW SAT DOWN IN THE DRIVER SEAT AND WAS PULLING HIS FEET INTO THE VEHICLE WHEN HE HEARD A LOUD BLAST AND FELT THE SEAT HEADREST EXPLODE AGAINST HIS NECK AND BACK. HE STATES HE MAY HAVE BLACKED OUT FOR AN UNDETERMINED TIME. ALTHOUGH HE WAS DISORIENTED, HE THEN TURNED AROUND IN THE SEAT TO CHECK ON HIS SON, WHO WAS CRYING. HE NOTED THAT THE HEADREST WAS SPLIT APART. NO NOTATION OF ANY DUST OR PARTICLES WERE NOTED. HE THEN DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME AND PARKED IT IN THE DRIVEWAY AT OUR HOME. MY SON IN LAW HAD BAD HEADACHES THAT NIGHT, SO I ENCOURAGED HIM TO GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM TO BE CHECKED. THE ER PHYSICIAN FELT THAT HE DID HAVE A CONCUSSION AND GAVE HIM INSTRUCTIONS ON CARE POST-CONCUSSION. CHRYSLER IS SENDING A TECHNICIAN TO CHECK THE CAR. I HAVE SIGNED AN AGREEMENT THAT ALLOWS THEM TO REVIEW THE ORC (OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER) AND THE EDR (EVENT DATA RECORD) AND TO SHARE THIS INFORMATION WITH THE NHTSA. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED IN MAY OR JUNE 2016 FROM CARMAX IN AUSTIN TEXAS AND HAS BEEN IN FOR ALL RECALLS SINCE THAT TIME. THERE IS ONE RECENT RECALL THAT HAS NOT BEEN COMPLETED DUE TO WAITING FOR TEXAN CHRYSLER/DODGE TO GET THE PART AND CALL ME. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANY FURTHER INFORMATION IS NEEDED FROM ME. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A COLLISION OR WORSE AND INJURED MY FAMILY. *DT [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR *TR

ON AUGUST 20TH I NOTICED THE HEADREST ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT HAD DEPLOYED. THE HEADREST MECHANISM DEPLOYED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. I NOTICED SEVERAL SMALL PIECES OF BLACK PLASTIC ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. UPON EXAMINING THE HEADREST, I SAW THAT THE PLASTIC WHICH WAS SUPPOSED TO HOLD A SPRING MECHANISM HAD FAILED. THE ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT WAS ALLEGEDLY FIXED DURING AN EARLIER CHRYSLER RECALL, AS THERE WERE ISSUES WITH THE ARH NOT DEPLOYING. IT NOW APPEARS THAT THE FIX MAY BE CALIBRATED TOO SENSITIVE AND THE AHR DEPLOYS WITH NO TRIGGER EVENT. MY CHRYSLER 200 HAD 51,000 MILES WHEN THIS OCCURRED; IT IS STILL COVER BY A PLATINUM SERVICE CONTRACT ALTHOUGH THE DEALER IS BALKING AT ALLOWING THE REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY. THE DEFECTIVE HEADREST IS STILL INSTALLED IN THE CAR. I AM CONTACTING CHRYSLER TO MAKE THE NEEDED REPAIRS AS WELL.

ENGINE
2013 CHRYSLER 200 3.6L V-6 80,000 MILES. DURING THE 2018 WINTER IN NOTICED MY CAR WAS NOT COMING UP TO RUNNING TEMPERATURE AND NO T GETTING GOOD HEAT OUT OF THE VENTS ON DRIVERS AND PASSENGER VENTS. I CHANGED THE THERMOSTAT AND NOTICED A LOT OF GRIT AND WHAT LOOKS LIKE DIRT IN THE ANTIFREEZE, BUT NOW THE CAR COMES UP TO RUNNING TEMPERATURE AND NOW I GET GOOD HEAT OUT OF DRIVER SIDE VENT BUT NOT OUT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE VENT. I HAVE BEEN DOING SOME READING ON CHRYSLER 200 FORUMS AND I SEE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME PROBLEMS I AM HAVING AND SAYING THE CAUSE IN IS THAT THE HEATER CORE IS PLUGGED AND IS ABOUT $900.00 TO $1200.00 TO FIX. IS CHRYSLER GOING TO COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIRS? THE CAUSE OF THE HEATER CORE BEING PLUGGED IS WHEN TO BLOCKS WERE BEING PORED AND MACHINED LEAVING SAND AND OTHER DEBRIS IN THE BLOCKS BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT CLEANED PROPERLY.
