TAKATA RECALL,. I PURCHASED THIS CAR USED A YEAR AGO, WITHIN A MONTH THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO DEALER AND THEY SAID THE WAS THE OLUG UNDER THE SEAT AND RESET THE COMPUTER. HE SAID TO KEEP THE AREA BELOW THE PASSENGER SEAT CLEAR SO THE PLUG DOESN'T GET MOVED. A MONTH LATER THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME BACK ON. I CAN'T KEEP BRINGING IT INTO THE SHOP. NOW I HAVE TO INSPECT THE CAR AND IT FAILS BECAUSE OF THE STUPID AIRBAG. IT'S COSTING ME MONEY AND TIME. THIS MODEL NEEDS TO HAVE A RECALL DONE FOR SAFETY.

MY CAR SHUT COMPLETELY OFF WHILE I WAS AT A STOP SIGN BUT STARTED UP ABOUT A MINUTE LATER BUT A FEW DAYS PRIOR TO THAT INCIDENT, MY CAR STALLED AT A RED LIGHT AND ALSO IN ANOTHER INCIDENT WHILE I WAS PARKING IT STALLED AND ALL OF THIS OCCURRED WITHIN 3 DAY PERIOD.

AIR BAG LIGHT TURNS ON RANDOMLY WHEN I DRIVE. MORE IF SOMEONE OR SOMETHING IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. MY RADIO ALSO DOESN'T CONNECT TO USB FOR MY PHONE NOR CONNECT TO BLUETOOTH AT TIMES. WHEN I TURN THE CAR ON 1/10 TIMES THE SCREEN DOESN'T TURN ON.

WHEN I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR WENT FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL AND BACK TO DRIVE RESULTING IN A SUDDEN JUMP FROM THE CAR. I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THEY JUST REFLASHED MY TRANSMISSION INSTEAD OF FIXING THE ACTUAL PROBLEM

NHTSA ODI 11109574

I STARTED TO FEEL THE JERK RANDOMLY WHILE THE CAR SWITCHED GEARS. TOOK IT FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND TOLD THE DEALERSHIP/MECHANIC THREE DIFFERENT TIMES. EACH TIME WHEN I PICKED IT UP, THEY TOLD ME THEY WERE UNABLE TO SEE THE PROBLEM AFTER DRIVING IT AROUND. IT HAPPENS SPORADICALLY BUT WHEN IT DOES, THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT RAN INTO A WALL AND JERKS HARD. IF I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT HAPPEN I WOULD SO THE MECHANIC COULD SEE. OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS I HAVE NOTICED IT HAS BEEN OCCURRING MORE FREQUENTLY. THIS IS TAKING PLACE WHILE IN THE HIGHWAY DRIVING 55 MPH, WITH THE CRUZE CONTROL ON AND STILL CONTINUES WITH IT OFF. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALSO HAS COME ON.

NHTSA ODI 11109516

CAR ENGINE STALLS CONTINUESLY WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY WITH NO WARNING AT ALL . RECALL WAS PLACED ON THIS CAR IN 2015 FOR THIS ISSUE SUPPOSEDLY AS I READ ONLINE . NOW IT IS DOING THE SAME ISSUE AGAIN

NHTSA ODI 11105280

I HAVE ALREADY HAD THE WIRING HARNESS REPLACED, BUT NOW MY CAR STALLS WHILE CRUISING OR DECELERATING WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED EVERYDAY FOR THE PAST 3 DAYS. THEN THE CAR WON'T START RIGHT AWAY LEAVING ME STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD.

1) I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET 40 MPH AND THE CAR LOST POWER AND STOPPED ON THE MIDDLE OF STREET IN A VERY UNSAFE POSITION, I TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR BUT IT ONLY MADE THE START NOISE AND DID NOT WORK ANYMORE. 2)THE AIRBAG SERVICE LIGHT IS ON FOR MORE THAN 4 MONTHS.

CAR WAS IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY. LOST POWER AND THE DASH READ "SERVICE TRANSMISSION" "SERVICE PARK BRAKE." I COULD NOT GET THE SHIFT KNOB OUT OF "D," DESPITE TURNING IT LEFT AND RIGHT. I WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER TO THE SHOULDER. ABLE TO TURN CAR OFF, AND EVENTUALLY RESTART AND PUT IN DRIVE. THIS SAME LOSS OF POWER OCCURRED 3 MORE TIMES, BEFORE IT STAYED IN DRIVE AND I WAS ABLE TO GET TO A MECHANIC. FOUND NOTHING WRONG. I READ THERE WAS AN R24 RECALL FOR CHRYSLER 200'S BUILT BETWEEN JANUARY 2014 AND SEPTEMBER 2014, CITING LOSS OF POWER AND HAVING THE SAME DISPLAY THAT I OBSERVED ON THE DASH. MY DEALER IS TELLING ME THAT MY CAR IS NOT UNDER THAT RECALL - WHICH I KNOW. HOWEVER, I TRIED TO REITERATE MY CONCERN OVER MY SAFETY OF HAVING COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER ON THE HIGHWAY AND EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AS THE R24 RECALL. I ASKED IF THEY COULD LOOK AT MY VEHICLE AS HAVING THAT SAME ISSUE AS THE RECALL, BUT I WAS TOLD THEY CANNOT. THE DEALER NEEDS TO TREAT IT AS A SEPARATE MECHANICAL FAILURE, DESPITE THIS PROBLEM BEING IDENTICAL TO THE RECALL. I EXPRESSED CONCERN FOR MY SAFETY AND MAY FAMILY'S SAFETY, AND THAT I WOULD LIKE THEM TO APPROACH THIS ISSUE WITH THE CONCERN THEY HAD WITH RECALL VEHICLES WITH THE SAME POWER FAILURE ISSUE. I DECIDED NOT TO TAKE MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, AS I DO NOT WANT MY POWER FAILURE PROBLEM (WITH THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS AS THE R24 RECALL) TO BE RUN THROUGH THE SAME DIAGNOSTIC TESTS THAT MY MECHANIC RAN IT THROUGH, TO NO AVAIL. AS WITH THE R24, I WANT THE DEALER TO FOCUS ON THE POWER DISTRIBUTION CENTER ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR. I SUSPECT THAT OTHER 2015 CHRYSLER 200 AWD DRIVE VEHICLES ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME POWER FAILURE THAT I HAD. THANK YOU.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ON THE FREEWAY IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. I HAD A GOOD 3-4 CAR LENGTHS IN BETWEEN MYSELF AND THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. THE CARS IN FRONT OF MY CAME TO A SUDDEN STOP SO I SLAMMED ON MY BRAKES. THE CAR INITIALLY SLOWED BUT NOT AT THE PACE I EXPECTED. I PUSHED THE BRAKES TO THE FLOOR BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. I REAR ENDED THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME TOTALING THE CAR. THERE WAS PLENTY OF ROOM IN FRONT OF ME AND THE ROADS WERE DRY. THE CAR SHOULD HAVE STOPPED IN TIME WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THE BRAKES WERE THE CAUSE. I HAD NOTICED THEM BEING DELAYED IN THE WEEKS PRIOR BUT DID NOT HEAR ANY SQUEAKING SO I ASSUMED THEY WERE FINE UNTIL THIS HAPPENED.

IT HAS STALLED AT STOP LIGHTS, STOP SIGNS, AND THERE HAVE ONLY BEEN A BATTERY LIGHT COME ON THE DASHBOARD AFTER THE CAR IS STALLED AND IN ELECTRICAL MODE. THERE IS NO WARNING OR INDICATION ANYTHING IS WRONG THEN THE CAR WILL DIE AND WILL BE UNABLE TO RESTART FOR A FEW MIMUTES. I HAD THE ALTERNATOR AND SPARK PLUGS REPLACED YESTERDAY, AND I GOT ABOUT 100 FEET FROM MY HOUSE AND STALLED AT A STOP SIGN THIS MORNING.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON FREEWAY. AS I APPLIED THE BRAKE TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN, IT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. CONTINUED BRAKE PRESSURE BROUGHT ABOUT THE SLOWING OF THE VEHICLE. THE UNWANTED ACCELERATION WAS MOMENTARY BUT FRIGHTENING AS I WAS IN TRAFFIC. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE 9 SPEED TRANSMISSION IN THIS AND OTHER VEHICLES WITH NO KNOWN FIX. MAKE CHRYSLER TAKE THESE OFF THE ROAD!!!
