ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
DURING THE PAST 2 MONTHS THE CAR STARTED TURNING OFF JUST MINUTES AFTER WE DROVE IT OFF THE PARKING LOT. AT NIGHT THE CAR WOULD BE LEFT OVERNIGHT PARKED LIKE ANY OTHER REGULAR CAR. THEN ME AND MY SPOUSE WOULD WARM UP THE CAR BEFORE WE WOULD HEAD TO WORK AND THEN WE WOULD DRIVE OFF. THE CAR WOULD WARM UP AFTER WE TURNED IT ON AND IT WOULD WORK GOOD, IT WOULD NOT DIE. UNTIL WE ACTUALLY CHANGED GEARS AND TURNED TO DRIVE IT OFF THE PARKING LOT WE WOULD DRIVE OFF A FEW STREETS AND IT WOULD COMPLETELY DIE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREETS ATLEAST A F3 OR 4 DAYS OUT OF THE 7 DAY WEEK. WE CHANGED THE BATTERY ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGO AND WE WENT BACK TO AUTOZONE BUT THEY TESTED THE BATTERY AND SAID IT WAS 100% CHARGED SO THE ISSUE WASN'T THE BATTERY. WE WENT TO THE DEALER BUT THEY WERE TRYING TO CHARGE US OVER 1,000 BECAUSE OF A VACUUM CHANGE IN THE SYSTEM THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CAR DYING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. IT'S BEEN 2 MONTHS ALREADY AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. USUALLY IT SHUTS OFF WHEN WE DECELERATE THE CAR NOT ACCELERATE

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
I BOUGHT A CAR AT AN AUCTION THAT HAS TWO OUTSTANDING RECALLS. I WENT TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS AND BOTH WANTED ME TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. AFTER COMPLAINING TO REPORT THEM ONE DEALER PRETENDED TO DO THE REPAIR BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS.OBVIOUSLY THE RECALLS WERE NEVER DONE AND SINCE THEY PUT ON REPORT THEY WERE DONE THEY WILL NOT HELP ME. THE CAR WILL LOSE POWER WHILE I AM DRIVING CAUSING ME TO STALL.. ALL I WANT IS MY CAR TO BE FIXED PROPERLY SO I DO NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT CRASHING AND INJURING MYSELF OR GOD FORBID DIE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY CAR HAS BEEN HAVING ELECTRONIC PROBLEMS. I TRIED TO START IT AT MY HOUSE AND IT WOULDN'T START. AFTER JUMPING IT, IT STARTED BUT IT WOULDN'T SHIFT INTO ANY GEAR THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL AS THE PARKING BRAKE, TRACTION CONTROL, AND PERFORMANCE SHIFTING UNAVAILABLE. I UNHOOKED THE BATTERY IN HOPES IT WOULD HELP SOMETHING THEN WHEN I RESTARTED IT IT'S STUCK IN NEUTRAL AND WON'T SHIFT INTO PARK.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY CAR WILL LOSE POWER AS I AM DRIVING. I HAVE TO STOP AND SHUT IT OFF THEN RESTART THE CAR AND IT DRIVES FINE. ALSO VALVE COVER GASKET LEAKING OIL. THE SHOP GUYS SAID HE USE TO WORK FOR CHRYSLER AND THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE IN CHRYSLER 200 & 300. ALSO A FEW OTHER CHRYSLER VEHICLES. IF THIS IS A PROBLEM IT SHOULD BE FIXED AND NOT CONTINUE TO USE THE SAME PARTS

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK MY 2015 CHRYSLER 200 ABRUPTLY LOSES ALL POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY ROAD. THE BATTERY HAS BEEN TEST AND WAS FULLY CHARGED, THE ALTERNATOR IS COMPLETELY FINE. ALSO WHEN THE CAR SHUT OFF THE HAZARDS WOULDN'T EVEN WORK..AND LEAVES ME TO BELIEVE IF I WERE TO HAVE GOTTEN INTO AN ACCIDENT THAT DAY THE AIRBAGS WOULDN'T HAVE DEPLOYED. I AM HONESTLY TERRIFIED TO GET BACK INTO THAT CAR FOR SAFETY REASONS..THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED. ONE WEEK AFTER BUYING THE CAR THE LOW BEAMS WORK WHENEVER THEY WANT TO. TOO MANY PROBLEMS!!

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I BOUGHT MY CAR IN SEPTEMBER 2019 AROUND 25000 MILES. IN OCTOBER THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON . I TOOK IT TO CHRYSLER AND JEEP WHO CHARGED OVER $3300 TO FIX . THEY SAID THEY TALKED TO CHRYSLER WHO WOULD COVER $3000 AND I HAD TO PAY THE $300. I DID THAT AND THE LIGHT IS BACK ON. IT POPS UP EVER COUPLE MINUTES WHILE I'M DRIVING AND IT DOESN'T MATTER IF I'M GOING 15 MPH OR 60 MPH.

EVERY TIME I NEED TO GET SOMEWHERE, I'LL HAVE TO START MY CAR FOR A HOUR AHEAD OF TIME SO IT CAN SAFELY DRIVE WITHOUT DYING. IF I TAKE OFF FROM WHATEVER LOCATION AND NOT START IT FOR A LITTLE BIT, THEN IT WILL CONTINUE DYING ON ME AT LEAST 3 TO 4 TIMES.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
THE HEATER CORE BECOME CLOGGED PREVENTING AIR FLOW, TO DEFROST THE WINDSHIELD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR. I EVEN DID THE REGULAR SCHEDULED COOLANT FLUSHES TO PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING, AND IT STILL HAPPENED. IT BECOMES DANGEROUS AS THE VEHICLE HEATER CORE BECOMES SO BACKED UP THAT NOT EVEN A FULL HEATER CORE FLUSH CAN SAVE IT. I HAVE READ ON LINE THAT THIS IS A ISSUE THAT HAPPENS TO A LOT CHRYSLER VEHICLES, AND IT SOUNDS AS IF IT HAS TO DO A LOT TO WITH THE CAR WAS MANUFACTURED THROUGH THE SAND CAST PROCESS. THE CAR HAS OVERHEATED ALSO HAS A HARD TIME KEEPING THE CAR WARM BECAUSE OF THE CLOGGED HEATER CORE. THIS PROBLEM HAS EFFECTED MANY OF THE 200 VEHICLES , AND IM SURPRISED THAT A RESOLVE HAS NOT BE BROUGHT OUT YET., IT ALMOST GOT ME IN A ACCIDENT ON THE TURNPIKE BECAUSE I COULDN'T DEFROST THE WINDOWS.
