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

WHEN ACCELERATING OR COMING TO A STOP THE CAR WILL LUNGE FORWARD FORCEFULLY. SEEMS LIKE THERE ARE SEVERAL OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. HOW MANY TIMES THE THE ISSUE NEED TO BE REPORTED BEFORE ISSUING A RECALL AS THIS IS VERY UNSAFE

I'VE ONLY HAD MY CAR FOR LESS THAN 2 MONTHS NOW AND THE CAR IS NOT SWITCHING GEARS PROPERLY, THE CAR ALSO WILL NOT START SOMETIMES THE MESSAGE DISPLAYS THAT IT IS NOT IN PARK AND WILL NOT START FOR A WHILE. ON 11/22/2019 THE CAR WOULD NOT START AND IT ALSO WOULD NOT TURN OFF, IT WAS STUCK IN ACC AND ON MODE, IT TOOK ABOUT 3 HOURS TO GET THE CAR TO COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. ALSO, WHILE I'M DRIVING WHEN IT ACTUALLY MOVES IT ACTS LIKE IT WANTS TO CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE STREETS.

MY VEHICLE RANDOMLY STARTS IN NEUTRAL WITH THE SERVICE PARK BREAK LIGHT ILLUMINATED. IT WILL NOT SHIFT AT ALL, TURNS ON AND OFF, BUT STARTS IN NEUTRAL. FIRST HAPPENED IN SEPTEMBER 28, 2019, I GO TO THE STORE, TURN MY CAR OFF, GO IN PURCHASE MY ITEMS, AND WHEN I COME BACK AND START MY CAR, IT STARTS IN NEUTRAL AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE IN MAY WITH ALMOST 40,000 MILES. IT WAS LESS THAN 50,000 WHEN IT FIRST OCCURRED, AND IS JUST OVER 50 NOW THAT IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS WILL BE THE THIRD TIME HAVING TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER FOR THIS ISSUE. EVERY TIME IT DOES THIS IT USUALLY OUT SOMEWHERE. THE VEHICLE IS ALWAYS OFF AND STATIONARY WHEN IT OCCURS. FIRST TIME I WAS TOLD IT WAS MISSING AN ARS RELAY, AND THAT'S WHY IT WAS DOING IT. LAST TIME I WAS TOLD THE COMPUTER NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED. I NOW HAVE TO GET THE CAR OUT OF MY GARAGE, SO I CAN HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALER AGAIN TO SEE WHAT NON-SENSE THEY WILL TELL ME THIS TIME. THEY THINK BECAUSE I'M A WOMAN THAT I DON'T HAVE COMMON SENSE. I HATE MY LOCAL DEALERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT, AND NOW I HAVE TO GO BACK YET AGAIN AFTER ONLY HAVING THE VEHICLE BACK MAYBE 2 WEEKS, TO SEE WHY IT ONLY STARTS IN NEUTRAL.

ACTIVE GRILL SHUTTER ERROR CODE. AGS SHUTTERS ARE EASILY BROKEN, THESE SHUTTERS ARE NOT MEANT TO WITHSTAND OHIO WINTERS. A SMALL AMOUNT OF ICE BUILD UP CAUSED THE SHUTTERS TO BRAKE AND/OR GOT STUCK CLOSED. I'VE HAD TO REMOVE THE AGS COMPLETLEY TO DISCOVER EVERY SHUTTER WAS BROKE. WITHOUT THE AGS WORKING CORRECTLY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON 100% OF THE TIME AND THE AUTOMATIC CAR STARTER IS CANCELED OUT. IT WAS A NORMAL WINTER DAY WHEN I DISCOVERED THE PROBLEM. MY CAR WAS STATIONARY AND THE DRIVEWAY.

MY 2015 CHRYSLER 200 CUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. THERE ARE NO WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH YET. THE VEHICLE CUTS OFF APPROXIMATELY UP TO THREE TIMES A DAY, WHICH IS QUITE SCARY ESPECIALLY DUE TO THE FACT OF IT DOING SO IN THE MIDDLE OF MOVING TRAFFIC. THERE IS NO SPECIFIC TIME WHERE IT CUTS OFF, ITS RANDOM. I HAVE TO TAKE A FEW MINUTES TO RESTART AND WHEN I DO RESTART IT STALL AS IF IT DOES NOT WAN TO CRANK, BUT EVENTUALLY ENDS UP CRANKING. THIS ISSUE RECENTLY STARTED A FEW WEEKS AGO, AND I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR A YEAR.

I WAS IN A HURRY AND GOT OUT OF MY CAR WITHOUT SHUTTING IT OFF. I RAN TO GET THE SHUTTLE TO TAKE ME TO WORK 2 MILES A WAY WITH THE KEYS IN MY PURSE, WHEN I RETURNED 9 HOURS LATER MY CARE WAS STILL RUNNING AND THE GAS TANK WAS ALMOST EMPTY. I THOUGHT IF YOU TOOK THE KEY AWAY FROM THE CAR AND ACCIDENTALLY LEFT IT RUNNING IT WOULD AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF AFTER 30 MINUTES. AM I WRONG ABOUT THIS FUNCTION? AS FOR THE TRANSMISSION IT HAS BEEN SLIPPING IN D4 RANDOMLY, WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR HAS LESS THAN 65000 MILES AND I HAVE ONLY OWNED IT FOR 4 MONTHS. IS THIS A NORMAL TRANSMISSION COMPLAINT?

NHTSA ODI 11268151

THE PAINT HAS NEVER BEEN REDONE BEFORE AND IS THE MANUFACTURED PAINT.

THE CAR STALLS AND THE ENGINE STOPS RUNNING WHEN YOU'RE SLOWING DOWN AND STOPPED. VERY UNSAFE.

THE CAR RUNS REALLY ROUGH, LOUD NOISE, LOSS OF POWER AND VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN. IDLES ROUGH AND JUMPS WHEN PLACED IN GEAR OR ACCELERATING. THE VEHICLE STOPS AND I UNABLE MOVE CAR EVEN IF THE GEAR SHIFT IS PLACED IN NEUTRAL. THE VEHICLE STOP WHEN IN MOTION.

NHTSA ODI 11258301

WHEN HITTING THE BREAKS SOMETIMES THE VEHICLE STALLS OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC HAVING TO PUT IN PARK POSITION AND TRY TO RESTART THE CAR. SOMETIMES TAKE A MINUTE TO EVEN RESTART AND IT DOESN'T ALWAYS LET ME SHIFT IT INTO DRIVE RIGHT AWAY. THIS IN RESULT COULD CAUSE SOMEONE TO REAR END ME. I AM NOTICING THERE IS A RECALL CALLED R24 WHICH SEAMS TO BE WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY VEHICLE.

ONCE I TRIED STARTING MY CAR I GOT NO KEY FOB DETECTED. WHEN I PLACED MY KEY FOB NEXT TO THE START BUTTON EVERYTHING WOULD POWER UP BUT WOULDN'T CRANK. THE AIR WOULD TURN ON THE NUETRAL WOULD FLASH ON THE GEARS SHAFT BUT STILL WOULDN'T CRANK. IT THEN WOULDN'T TURN OFF FROM RUN. THE CAR EVENTUALLY WOULDN'T SHOW ANY POWER SO I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID IT WAS THE BATTERY WHICH THEY REPLACE A YEAR PRIOR SO IT WOULDN'T BE NO COST. PULIS THEY DID AN OIL CHANGE. I CALLED AND THEY SAID MY CAR WAS READY. WHEN I PICKED UP MY CAR I NOTICED THE AIR WASN'T TURNING ON AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. I WENT BACK AND SPOKE WITH A SALES PERSON WHOM SAID TO BRING IT BACK THE NEXT DAY CAUSE THE MECHANICS WAS GONE. I BRUNG IT BACK KNOW THEY SAYING THE BODY AND TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPROGRAMMED AND WANT TO CHARGE ME A FEE OF $700. I'M TRYING TO FIGURE HOW IT WENT FROM JUST A DEAD BATTERY TO KNOW MY AIR DON'T WORK AND THE CAR NEEDING TO BE REPROGRAMMED. THIS IS TOTAL UNFAIR TO ME AND I'VE SEEN SEVERAL OTHERS GOING THROUGH THE SAME PROBLEMS. IF MY BATTERY WOULDN'T HAVE DIED AFTER ONLY A YEAR I WOULDN'T NEED MY CAR REPROGRAMMED AND HAVE TO SPEND ALMOST $700. LAST YEAR I HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE CAR CUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING THAT I HAD TO HAVE FIXED NOW THIS
