MY ENGINE DIES OUT WHILE I AM DRIVING THEN AFTER SITTING FOR ABOUT 5 MINS IT STARTS BACK UP. IT'S BEEN CHECKED BY MECHANICS BUT NONE KNOWS WHY THIS IS HAPPENING. I AM AFRAID I WILL HAVE AN ACCIDENT, BECAUSE WHEN IT HAPPENS IT'S HARD TO STEER OUT OF TRAFFIC. MY CAR IS A 2013 200 BUT I PURCHASED IT IN 2015

ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS MY 2013 CHRYSLER 200 SHUT OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING. IT APPEARED AS IF THE ENGINE WAS NOT GETTING ANY GAS. WHEN I TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE IT SOUNDED LIKE IT WANTED TO START BUT NO GAS WAS GETTING TO THE ENGINE. I. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE SHOP PUT MY VEHICLE ON THE COMPUTER AND NO ISSUES WAS REVEALED. EACH TIME THAT IT SHUT OFF I HAD A FULL TANK OF GAS TO 3/4 OF GAS. I HAD TO WAIT 45-60 MINUTES BEFORE THE CAR WOULD START AGAIN. ON 3OCT2019 I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK TRAVELING 65 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE SHUT DOWN ON ME ON THE INTERSTATE.

WHILE I WAS SITTING IN MY PARKED VEHICLE, ENGINE OFF, LEANING TOWARDS THE CENTER OF THE CAR TO ADJUST SOMETHING THE HEADREST OF THE DRIVER'S SEAT DEPLOYED UNEXPECTEDLY. IT IS UNABLE TO BE RE-ATTACHED, AND I FOUND A SMALL PIECE OF BROKEN PLASTIC IN THE REAR SEAT THAT HADN'T BEEN THERE BEFORE. HAVING LOOKED AT RECALL INFORMATION AND OTHER INCIDENT REPORTS, I BELIEVE THIS TO BE IN THE SAME CATEGORY OF SOME OTHER COMPLAINTS REGARDING HEADREST FAILURES. I WILL BE CONTACTING MY DEALER TO GET THIS REPAIRED. I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW IN 2013.

DRIVER SEAT HEADREST DEPLOYED WHILE DRIVING ON SMOOTH HIGHWAY SURFACE AT 70MPH MAKING A LARGE NOISE AND HITTING HARD THE BACK OF DRIVER'S HEAD. THERE WERE NO LIGHTS OR INDICATION OF PROBLEMS ON THE DASH BOARD. AFTER I EXAMINED THE HEADREST THE PLASTIC HOLDING THE METAL BAR HAD DETERIORATED SO THAT THE BAR COULD NOT BE PLACED BACK IN ITS ORIGINAL SPOT, AND THE BAR WAS FOUND IN THE CLAMP BELOW. THE CLAMP WAS STILL LOCKED. THE HEADREST COULD NOT BE RESET SINCE THE PLASTIC WAS BROKEN. THE HEADREST IN THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD 3 RECALLS FOR NOT DEPLOYING IN AN ACCIDENT AND ALL HAVE BEEN SERVICED ON THIS VEHICLE. THIS VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND HAS HAD NO REASON TO DEPLOY. THE FORCE WHEN DEPLOYING CAN CAUSE NECK OR HEAD INJURIES TO THE OCCUPANT AND THEREFORE THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THE COMPANY WOULD NOT COVER REPLACEMENT AND THE TOTAL COST TO REPLACE THE HEADREST AND INSTALL CAME TO $730. AFTER DISCOUNTED WITH A COUPON FOR 12%.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ONE DAY, AND WHEN I WAS SITTING AT A STOPLIGHT, I WAS SMACKED IN THE BACK OF MY HEAD BY THE HEAD RESTRAINT. I WAS STATIONARY WHEN IT HAPPENED, AND 3 MONTHS LATER THE PASSENGER SIDE HIT MY WIFE. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHRYSLER 200. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAITED APPROXIMATELY THIRTY MINUTES AND THE VEHICLE RESTARTED. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FERMAN CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM OF NEW PORT RICHEY (727-847-5555, LOCATED AT 4023 US HIGHWAY 19, NEW PORT RICHEY, FL 34652), BUT THE FAILURE WAS NOT DUPLICATED.

AT APPROXIMATELY 3:10PM ON 8/29/19, THE CAR WAS ON AND IN PARK WITH THE AC TURNED ON, AS MY SON IN LAW WAS PLACING HIS 33-MONTH BABY IN THE CAR SEAT, LOCATED BEHIND THE DRIVERS SEAT. MY SON IN LAW SAT DOWN IN THE DRIVER SEAT AND WAS PULLING HIS FEET INTO THE VEHICLE WHEN HE HEARD A LOUD BLAST AND FELT THE SEAT HEADREST EXPLODE AGAINST HIS NECK AND BACK. HE STATES HE MAY HAVE BLACKED OUT FOR AN UNDETERMINED TIME. ALTHOUGH HE WAS DISORIENTED, HE THEN TURNED AROUND IN THE SEAT TO CHECK ON HIS SON, WHO WAS CRYING. HE NOTED THAT THE HEADREST WAS SPLIT APART. NO NOTATION OF ANY DUST OR PARTICLES WERE NOTED. HE THEN DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME AND PARKED IT IN THE DRIVEWAY AT OUR HOME. MY SON IN LAW HAD BAD HEADACHES THAT NIGHT, SO I ENCOURAGED HIM TO GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM TO BE CHECKED. THE ER PHYSICIAN FELT THAT HE DID HAVE A CONCUSSION AND GAVE HIM INSTRUCTIONS ON CARE POST-CONCUSSION. CHRYSLER IS SENDING A TECHNICIAN TO CHECK THE CAR. I HAVE SIGNED AN AGREEMENT THAT ALLOWS THEM TO REVIEW THE ORC (OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER) AND THE EDR (EVENT DATA RECORD) AND TO SHARE THIS INFORMATION WITH THE NHTSA. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED IN MAY OR JUNE 2016 FROM CARMAX IN AUSTIN TEXAS AND HAS BEEN IN FOR ALL RECALLS SINCE THAT TIME. THERE IS ONE RECENT RECALL THAT HAS NOT BEEN COMPLETED DUE TO WAITING FOR TEXAN CHRYSLER/DODGE TO GET THE PART AND CALL ME. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANY FURTHER INFORMATION IS NEEDED FROM ME. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A COLLISION OR WORSE AND INJURED MY FAMILY. *DT [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR *TR
