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

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

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.

THE CAR WILL SWITCH INTO NEUTRAL WITHOUT NOTICE WHILE DRIVING OR JUST A FEW MINUTES AGO IT STALLED OUT ON THE INTERSTATE WITHOUT NOTICE JUST DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR ENGINE WAS OFF AND ITS TELLING ME TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK TO START IT. I WENT TO START THE VEHICLE AND IT JUST RAPIDLY SHUTTERS AND TRIES TO START FOR ABOUT A MINUTE THEN STOPS AND DINGS AT ME.

I'M GETTING A ERROR CODE ON MY CAR P2172 WHICH IS ON THE RECALL LIST BUT MY VIN ISN'T COMING UP

NHTSA ODI 11310681

THE CAR STALLS AND SHUTS DOWN WITH NO WARNING AT ALL. HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR THE LAST 3 WEEKS. IT WAS BOUGHT USED FROM DRIVETIME IN DULUTH GEORGIA. I WAS TOLD BY NATIONAL TIRE AND BATTERY THAT THEY WERE NOT GOING TO TOUCH WHEN I TOOK IT THERE FOR REPAIR, THEY RECOMMEND THAT I TAKE IT TO A CHRYSLER DEALER, AT THAT TIME IT WOULD RANDOMLY STALL BUT WOULD START BACK UP SO I WENT TO WORK THE NEXT DAY AND THEY CAR STALLED AGAIN AND GOT REALLY SLUGGISH I WAS ABLE TO MAKE OVER TO CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP IN BUFORD GEORGIA. THEY SAID IT NEEDED A TIRE SENSOR AFTER THEY PUT THE TIRE SENSOR ON IT STALLED OUT ON THEM AGAIN SO THEY THEN SAID IT NEEDED A ABS MODULAR ONCE THEY INSTALLED THE ABS MODULAR TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE AND IT STALLED ON THEM AGAIN THEN THEY SAID THEY FOUND SOME LOOSE WIRES NEAR THE TRANSMISSION THE FIXED AND THE CAR WAS RUNNING. I HAD THE CAR FOR 2 DAYS AND IT STALLED OUT AGAIN. DRIVETIME THEN SENT A TOW TRUCK OVER TO TAKE THE CAR BACK TO CHRYSLER IN BUFORD NOW THEY ARE SAYING THE CAR NEEDS A WIRING HARNESS AT THIS POINT TO ME THE CAR IS UNSAFE AND NOT RELIABLE AT ALL. I PICK MY GRANDKIDS UP DAILY AND I CAN NOT AFFORD TO HAVE THEM IN THE BACK SEAT AND THE CARS STALLS AND WE GET HIT. OBVIOUSLY THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT WRONG AND THEY ARE SPECULATING. I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS CAR 4 MONTH ON FEBRUARY 12TH 2020 AND IT'S BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR THE LAST 3 WEEKS AND CHRYSLER CAN'T EVEN REPAIR A CHRYSLER... THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM. DRIVETIME IS PAYING FOR EVERYTHING SO FAR EXCEPT OUR FUNERALS GOD FORBID SOMETHING AWFUL SHOULD HAPPEN. THIS ALL HAPPENED ON HIGHWAY 78 IN SNELLVILLE GEORGIA AND THEY CAR WAS IN MOTION WHEN IT STALLED OUT. THIS IS UNSAFE, WE COULD HAVE BEEN RAMMED THE CAR JUST SHUTS DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF ACCELERATING, SLOWING DOWN FOR A TURN, GOING DOWNHILL, IN THE INTERSECTION IT HAS SHUT DOWN BUT THAT TIME IT STARTED RIGHT BACK UP

OBVIOUSLY, I HAD STARTED AND SHIFTED TO DRIVE TO GET FROM POINT A TO MY "SHUT DOWN" LOCATION, WHICH LEAVES ME CONFUSED ON WHY IT WOULD SAY I WAS IN PARK ALL OF THE SUDDEN. NO, MY EMERGENCY BREAK WAS NOT ON. ALSO, IT ALSO SEEMS AS IF IT WAS TRY STICKING IN EITHER D3 OR D4 GEARS RANDOMLY FROM TIME TO TIME OVER THE LAST WEEK. I WAS HELPED BY 3 OFFICERS TO GET MY VEHICLE PUSHED AND MOVED BACK TO MY RESIDENCE. THIS LAST INCIDENT OCCURRED WHILE TRYING TO BREAK AT A STOP LIGHT.
