ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
MY CHRYSLER 200 HAS BEEN TURNING OFF OUT OF NO WHERE. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ANYTHING TURNS ON. MY CARS HORN GOES OFF RANDOMLY IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING AND WHEN PUT INTO PARK. I HAD 3 RECALLS AND RECENTLY WENT TO GET THEM FIXED THINKING IT WOULD HELP , SINCE ONE OF THE RECALLS WAS REPROGRAMMING THE MAIN MODULE OF THE CAR. STILL TO THIS DAY IT TURNS OFF ON ME. JUST THE OTHER DAY I WAS IN TOWN MAKING A TURN AND IT STOPPED BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO COMPLETE THE TURN. IT'S ALSO TURNED OFF ON ME MANY TIMES WHEN I'M DRIVING IN ONE DIRECTION. AFTER IT TURNS OFF I AM ABLE TO RE START IT, AND OTHER TIMES I HAVE TO WAIT SEVERAL MINUTES BEFORE I'M ABLE TO GET IT TURNED BACK ON.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
AT RANDOM MY CARS DIES/STALLS. I COULD BE AT A STOP SIGN AND THE ENGINE LOSE POWER SHAKES THEN DIES. I COULD BE DRIVING IN TOWN CRUISING DOWN MAIN STREET AT 25MPH AND MY CAR ENGINE WILL LOSE POWER SHAKE THEN DIE WHILE I'M STILL DRIVING IN MOTION. I COULD BE DRIVING ON THE FREE WAY WITH SPEEDS AT 70 MPH AND MY CAR WILL JUST DIE, FOOT GOES ALL THE WAY IN PEDDLE WHEN DEAD. YOU COULD FEEL NO POWER IN THE CAR AND IT WILL ROLL OUT. ONCE THE CAR IS DEAD THE POWER STEERING IS OUT. IT'S VERY UNSAFE. I'VE BEEN BROKEN DOWN FOR HOURS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD OR MINUTES. I'VE BEEN BROKEN DOWN IN ALL 3 SITUATIONS MULTIPLE TIMES AS STATED ABOVE. THE CAR SHOWS NO WARNING WHEN IT IS GOING TO DIE, NO ENGINE LIGHTS EITHER, HAPPENS AT RANDOM. VERY UNRELIABLE AND IT TRAGIC THAT I HAVE TO KEEP PAYING FOR A VEHICLE THAT DOES NOT PERFORM LIKE IT SHOULD, I'M PAYING FOR A BROKEN CAR. DEALERSHIP WANTS NO PART OF IT. I'VE GOT A RECALL LETTER, TOOK IT IN AND NOTHING WAS FIX. THEY SAY IT WAS THE PCM BUT LITTLE DID THEY KNOW IT WAS A BRAND NEW ON. ALREADY WAS UPDATED. I FEEL NOTHING WAS DONT TO TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM SINCE THE DEALERSHIP HAD ABOUT 10 OTHER PEOPLE WITH RECALL LETTER. I'D REALLY APPRECIATE THE HELP IF ANY CAN BE ASSISTED

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
THE ENGINE KEEPS STALLING WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT WARNING. IT IS UNABLE TO RESTART FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES, THEN WILL START UP NORMALLY AS IF NOTHING HAS HAPPENED. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO CHRYSLER SERVICE SEVERAL TIMES TO BE TOLD THAT NOTHING SHOWS UP ON THE DIAGNOSTIC AND THEY CANNOT DETERMINE THE ISSUE TO THIS VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM HAPPENS WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION AND CAN HAPPEN ANYTIME REGARDLESS OF SPEED, LOCATION, OR WHAT THE CAR IS DOING. IT HAPPENS REPEATEDLY, APPROXIMATELY EVERY 3 WEEKS.

SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE, STEERING
WHILE DRIVING SLOWER, DECELERATING, OR BEGINNING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP, THE BRAKES AND STEERING LOCK UP, AND THEN THE CAR STALLS/SHUTS DOWN. THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER 5 TIMES IN THE PAST 2 WEEKS. PRIOR TO THAT, IT WOULD HAPPEN ABOUT ONCE A WEEK FOR ABOUT TWO MONTHS. IT HAS OCCURRED RIGHT BEFORE HAVING TO MERGE FROM A LANE OF HEAVY TRAFFIC (BUMPER-TO-BUMPER) ONTO A BUSY HIGHWAY, PUTTING ME IN A DANGEROUS POSITION. LUCKILY, AFTER TURNING THE IGNITION OFF AND THEN ON AGAIN, EVERYTHING WORKS FINE...UNTIL IT DOESN'T AGAIN.

ENGINE
DRIVING OVER 60 OR 70'MILES PER HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY AND ACCELERATING TOO FAST (STEPPING ON THE GAS PEDAL TOO MUCH) I.E. FLOORING IT. THE ENGINE WILL SHUT DOWN AND WILL NOT START AGAIN FOR AWHILE. ONCE THE VEHICLE STARTS UP THEN IT WORKS FINE. RARELY DO I NEED TO ACCELERATE THAT MUCH GOING THAT FAST BUT IT'S HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE AND THE MECHANIC I WENT TOO SAID HIS SON HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, STEERING
AFTER A FEW MONTHS OF HAVING DTC COME UP FOR EVAP AND MISFIRE THEN DISAPPEAR JUST A QUICK AS IT CAME UP, MY VEHICLE HAS RECENTLY BEGAN STALLING OUT WHILE DRIVING, SPECIFICALLY WHILE DECELERATING OR IDLING. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED 2 YEARS AGO AND TESTS GOOD EVERY TIME, AS DOES THE ALTERNATOR, STARTER, WIRES, CONNECTORS AND SENSORS. NOBODY CAN FIND ANY DTC ON THE OBDII OR ANYTHING ELSE. IT'S EASY TO REPLICATE BUT IMPOSSIBLE TO DECIDE WHY. I'VE TALKED TO THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT POSSIBLE RECALLS FROM 2012 CONCERNING THE PCM AS WELL AS CHATTED WITH A FEW PEOPLE ON THE CHRYSLER WEBSITE AND NOBODY WANTS TO HELP. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION, AS I CAN PROVE WITH VIDEO FROM MY DASH CAM AND BACK UP CAM. THE PEOPLE ON THE CHRYSLER WEBSITE WERE VERY RUDE, AND THE DEALERSHIP WAS NOT WILLING TO STAND BEHIND THE PRODUCT EITHER WITHOUT CHARGING $300 JUST TO DIAGNOSE. IT'S SAYS RIGHT ON THE WEBSITE "WHAT IS A SAFETY RECALL? SAFETY RECALLS INCLUDE ANY PROBLEM ENCOUNTERED WITH AN FCA US PRODUCT RELATED TO THE SAFE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE OR THE SAFETY OF THE OCCUPANTS. FCA US LLC WILL CORRECT THE PROBLEM, AT NO CHARGE, EVEN IF THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND YOU ARE NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER." AS WELL AS "RECALL FAQS FCA US REGARDS THE SAFETY AND SECURITY OF OUR CUSTOMERS AND THEIR FAMILIES AS PARAMOUNT. PLEASE SEE OUR LIST OF FAQS BELOW TO LEARN MORE ABOUT RECALLS AND THE PRECAUTIONS WE TAKE TO KEEP YOU SAFE. IF YOU DON'T SEE YOUR CONCERN LISTED,CHAT WITH USAND ONE OF OUR REPRESENTATIVES WILL HELP ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE." THE RECALL I REFER TO IS THE TECH BULLETIN 18-102-16A WITH THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS "-2-
