CATALYTIC CONVENTOR ISN'T READY TO PASS INSPECTION, I SEEN SOME POSSIBLE RECALLS FOR FAV BUT HAVEN'T RECEIVED A NOTICE...

I HAD THE TRANSMISSION REBUILT BY CHRYSLER 2014, IT HAS BEEN BACK TO CHRYSLER TWICE SINCE THEN AND THEY SAY NOTHING IS WRONG. IT IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY AND THE TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AGAIN. THE CAR ALSO HAS SOME ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ISSUES, THE RADIO WILL JUST STOP WORKING AND THE LIGHTS WILL DIM.

AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON , GOING THREW BRAKES AND TIRES EVERY 6 MONTHS SENSE I BOUGHT IT IN 2016. ALSO NO HEAT STARTED AT PASSANGER SIDE AND WORKED ITS WAY TOWARDS DRIVERS SIDE. ALSO FRONT WINDOWS DO NOT GO DOWN STARTED PASSANGER SIDE AND 3 MONTHS LATER NO DRIVER SIDE. ALSO WAS DRIVING ABOUT 35 MPH MADE RIGHT HAND TURN CAR HAS STALLED 5 TIMES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MILITELLO MOTORS (1029 N. STATE ST, FAIRMONT, MN) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEAD REST AIR BAG WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 77,000.

THE HEATER ON MY 2012 CHRYSLER 200 CONVERTIBLE DOES NOT WORK. THE AIR BLOWS, BUT IT IS NOT WARM. I DO NOT HAVE THAT PROBLEM ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. MY DEALER TELLS ME I NEED MY HEATER CORE, AMONG OTHER THINGS, REPLACED, WHICH WILL COST APPROXIMATELY $1500-$2000.. IN RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, I FIND IT'S THE NUMBER ONE COMPLAINT WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL. MY CAR CURRENTLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000 MILES ON IT.

MY CHRYSLER 200 DIED WHILE DRIVING--STILL HAD POWER, BUT ENGINE DIED. THE FIRST TIME,6/8/19, WE THOUGHT IT WAS A CAM SENSOR-THAT WAS THE CODE IT THREW AT THE MECHANIC. WE REPLACED IT. THEN THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. THE BATTERY WAS GOOD, BUT THE ALTERNATOR WASN'T-SO WE REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR. DROVE IT FOR 2 DAYS & IT DIED AGAIN, 6/16/19. TOOK IT BACK & THE SAME CAM SENSOR CODE IS POPPING UP BUT SENSOR IS STILL GOOD. GOT IT BACK, DROVE IT ANOTHER 2 DAYS & IT DIED AGAIN, 6/22/19. TOWED IT BACK TO SHOP & MECHANIC CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AFTER A WEEK. HAVE IT BACK 1 DAY & CAR DIES AGAIN, 6/29/19. SEVERAL COMPLAINTS HERE MENTION THE CAR ENGINE DYING FOR NO REASON, BUT STILL HAVE POWER. WE'VE BEEN LUCKY-WE HAVEN'T BEEN ON A HIGHWAY WHEN IT'S DIED. EACH TIME, WE'VE BEEN DRIVING AROUND THE CITY & MAKING A TURN & THE TRAFFIC FLOW HAS BEEN SLOW. SOMETIMES WE'VE BEEN AT A COMPLETE STOP-OTHERS WE HAVE NOT. BEING THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A REPETITIVE COMPLAINT, WHY HASN'T A RECALL BEEN ISSUED ON THE VEHICLE??

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHRYSLER 200. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND REMAINED LIT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIANOSED THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE.

PASSENGER SIDE HEATER STOPPED WORKING. VEHICLE TURNS OFF WHILE IN DRIVE AND MOVING.

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE BACK THE OFFICE FROM MY LUNCH BREAK, I MADE A RIGHT HAND TURN ONTO THE MAIN ROAD AND BEGAN TO ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE WITH MORE GAS. AT ABOUT 35MPH THE CAR ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF AND I HAD TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH NO POWER STEERING. I HAD TO WAIT APPROXIMATELY 20 MINS UNTIL MY CAR WOULD RESTART AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO GET BACK ON THE ROAD UNTIL AFTER ANOTHER FEW HUNDRED YARDS OF DRIVING THE CAR STALLED AGAIN COMPLETELY. I WAS THEN FORCED TO CALL A TOW TRUCK TO HAVE IT TAKEN TO AN AUTO SHOP.
