2016 CHRYSLER 200 Complaints

I SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND MY AC STOPPED WORKING FORTUNATELY I WASN'T FAR AWAY FROM HOME. I PULLED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD AND NOTICED THAT WHERE THE AC COMPRESSOR WAS MELTING THE AC COMPRESSOR CLUTCH POTENTIALLY CAUSE A FIRE OR OTHER HAZARDS,

AFTER HAVING THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WIRING HARNESS REPLACED, THE SERVICE AIR BAG NOTIFICATION IS ONCE AGAIN REOCCURRING ON THIS VEHICLE. THE CODE IS AGAIN INDICATING AN ISSUE WITH THE PASSENGER SEAT WIRING. THIS PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE QUITE COMMON WITH 2015/2016 CHRYSLER 200S!

MY CAR WAS WORKING PERFECTLY FINE UNTIL I LEFT WORK TODAY. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AS SOON AS I STARTED MY CAR AND IT KEPT SAYING 'CHECK PARKING BRAKE' AND 'CHECK AIRBAGS' I COULDN'T PUT MY CAR IN DRIVE OR REVERSE, IT WOULDN'T GO ANYWHERE. POSSIBLY BECAUSE THE PARKING BRAKE WOULDN'T LET ME DRIVE. VERY STRANGE, AS IT WAS SUDDEN AND UNEXPECTED.... HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH PARKING BRAKE OR AIRBAGS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE COMING OUT OF AN ALLEYWAY CRASHED INTO THE CONTACTS VEHICLE. THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED. NONE OF THE FRONTAL AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT STRUCK HIS HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL AND WAS UNCONSCIOUS. THE POLICE WAS PRESENT AND A REPORT NUMBER: 2019077493 WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TOWED BUT WAS DRIVEN TO THE RESIDENCE. THE CONTACT WAS TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL BY AMBULANCE WHERE HE WAS TREATED FOR HIS HEAD BLEEDING AND HEAD CONCUSSION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,000. *DT*JB

MY CAR STARTED TURNING OFF AS I WAS TRYING TO DRIVE ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO, I WAS TOLD TO GO TO A NEARBY DEALERSHIP WHICH I DID INSTEAD OF THE DEALERSHIP CHANGING MY OIL THEY GAVE ME TWO QUARTS OF OIL. AS OF TODAY 7-23-19 MY VEHICLE IS BACK AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED IT BACK IN 11-2018 BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE WHICH IS NORTHLAND CHRYSLER IN OAK PARK, MI

MY 2016 CHRYSLER 200 STALLS RANDOMLY IN TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM OCEAN CITY, MD WHEN I HIT TRAFFIC AT THE BAY BRIDGE. I WAS TRYING TO SWITCH LANES WHEN I NOTICED MY POWER STEERING WAS NOT WORKING FOLLOWED BY A MESSAGE ON THE SCREEN STATING TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTART THE ENGINE. VEHICLE RESTARTED BUT WAS NOT SHIFTING CORRECTLY. HAPPENED A SECOND TIME IN A SIMILAR SITUATION. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN LOOKING FOR THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT INDICATING WHAT IS HAPPENING.

CRASHED INTO VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO STOP IN TIME WHILE TRAVELING 25-30 MPH, POSSIBLY FASTER. FRONT END COMPLETELY CRUMPLED AND VEHICLE WAS CONSIDERED TOTAL LOSS. AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AT ALL.

MY CAR HAVE BEEN GIVEN ME PROBLEMS FOR ABOUT 6MONTHS. ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. CAR KEEP CUTTING OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, I KNOW SIX TIMES BEFORE MY FACTORY WARRANTY RAN OUT, AND THEY COULD NEVER FIX IT. TOOK IT TODAY AND THEY TOLD ME MY WARRANTY IS OUT, AND NOW I HAVE TO START DOING RANDOM WORK TO IT TO FIND OUT WHAT'S WRONG. THE EMPLOYEE OF CHRYSLER CHECKED THE CAR TO SEE IF IT WAS AS GIVING A CODE FOR WHAT IS WRONG. SHE SAID IT WAS NOT SHOWING A CODE. THE WAITED UNTIL WARRANTY RAN OUT, TO MAKE ME PAY FOR IT. CONGRATULATIONS HEY COULD NEVER FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. I STILL OWE 19000.00 ON IT. PLEASE HELP.

TAKATA RECALL. AFTER I REACHED 64,000 MILES MAY VEHICLE TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. IT TOOK AT LEAST 5 TIMES FOR THE MOTOR TO TURN OVER. AS SOON AS POWER WAS RESTORED BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. NOW THE BATTERY LIGHT IS OFF BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. SINCE THEN I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE BATTERY. I'VE HAD MY BATTERY TESTED AND THAT'S NOT THE PROBLEM. THERE NOW S A MAJOR ELECTRICAL ISSUE THAT IS WRONG. I HAVE TRIED TO DRIVE MY CAR SINCE AND IT CONTINUES TO TURN OFF. THIS IS ONLY NOT A HAZARD TO MYSELF BUT TO OTHERS THAT ARE DRIVING BECAUSE IT ABRUPTLY STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. CHRYSLER I NEED YOU TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE.

CAR A/C STUCK IN DEFROST MODE WHEN TURNED ON AND CAR WILL NOT START UNLESS IT IS JUMPED
