What 1,983 owners told NHTSA about the 2015 Chrysler 200

MY AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND GO OFF FOR A WHILE. BUT NOW IT SHOWS UP ON MY FTC CODE READER REGULARLY. WHEN I HAVE IT CHECKED IT SAY REPLACE AIR BAG CLOCK SPRING. MY TRANSMISSION IS JERKING AROUND AND MAKES A NOISE WHEN I START TO PUT IT IN GEAR. LIKE A CLANKING SOUND

THIS CAR SHIFTS HORRIBLY. WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE LAST YEAR FROM A DEALER IN GREEN BAY WI. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED DUE TO A MANUFACTURER'S BUYBACK IN 2016

TWICE IN ONE WEEK MY CAR STALLED AND QUITE ONCE WHILE DRIVING ON A MAIN ROAD WITH MILD/MODERATE TRAFFIC. THE SECOND TIME WAS WHILE STATIONARY IN A PARKING LOT ATTEMPTING TO PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT WILL POP ON AND OFF PERIODICALLY AND THE SERVICE PARKING BREAK LIGHT AND THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT WILL COME ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE DURING THE FIRST RECALL FOR THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE CAR WILL STALL AND I HAVE TO TURN IT OFF TO PUT IT IN PARK. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME I CRANK THE CAR, BUT OFTEN ENOUGH FOR MY CONCERN.

ON OCTOBER 10TH AND 12TH MY CAR SLOWLY STARTED SHUTTING DOWN WHILE DRIVING AND GAVE AN ERROR MESSAGE TO "SHIFT TO P AND PRESS START" I DID THIS AND THE CAR STARTED UP AGAIN AND CONTINUED TO RUN. ON OCTOBER 15TH ON MY DRIVE TO WORK THIS HAPPENED AGAIN, THANK GOODNESS I WAS ON A SIDE STREET SO I COULD PULL OVER TO GET THE CAR STARTED AGAIN. IT STARTED AFTER A FEW TRIES AND I MADE IT BACK HOME BUT THE CAR COMPLETELY DIED IN MY DRIVEWAY. NOTHING WORKED NOT EVEN THE UNLOCK BUTTONS FOR THE PASSENGER DOORS. I TAKE A MAJOR INTERSTATE TO WORK AND COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT HAD I MADE IT THAT FAR THIS MORNING OR HURT OTHERS. SOMEBODY NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS, I HAVE READ PLENTY OF OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME MODEL OF CAR DOING THIS EXACT SAME THING. MY CAR ONLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 50,000 MILES ON IT.

TAKATA RECALL MY VEHICLE SHUT DOWN ON ME LAST NIGHT WHILE DRIVING FOR THE UMPTEENTH TIME SINCE I'VE HAD IT. I'VE CONTACTED CHRYSLER BUT OF COURSE THEY ACT AS IF THEY KNOW NOTHING. I GOT SERVICED FOR TWO RECALLS ONE IN 2016AND THE OTHER 2017 AND NEITHER HAVE REMEDIED THE ISSUE. THERE IS NO CODE, NO LIGHTS COME ON OR ANYTHING. THE ONLY WARNING WARNING THAT I GET IS FOR ME TO PUT IT IN PARK IN ORDER TO RESTART IT. I'LL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER CHRYSLER IN MY LIFE.
