2013 CHRYSLER 200 Complaints

ON AUGUST 20TH I NOTICED THE HEADREST ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT HAD DEPLOYED. THE HEADREST MECHANISM DEPLOYED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. I NOTICED SEVERAL SMALL PIECES OF BLACK PLASTIC ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. UPON EXAMINING THE HEADREST, I SAW THAT THE PLASTIC WHICH WAS SUPPOSED TO HOLD A SPRING MECHANISM HAD FAILED. THE ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT WAS ALLEGEDLY FIXED DURING AN EARLIER CHRYSLER RECALL, AS THERE WERE ISSUES WITH THE ARH NOT DEPLOYING. IT NOW APPEARS THAT THE FIX MAY BE CALIBRATED TOO SENSITIVE AND THE AHR DEPLOYS WITH NO TRIGGER EVENT. MY CHRYSLER 200 HAD 51,000 MILES WHEN THIS OCCURRED; IT IS STILL COVER BY A PLATINUM SERVICE CONTRACT ALTHOUGH THE DEALER IS BALKING AT ALLOWING THE REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY. THE DEFECTIVE HEADREST IS STILL INSTALLED IN THE CAR. I AM CONTACTING CHRYSLER TO MAKE THE NEEDED REPAIRS AS WELL.

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS BEGAN OPERATING ON THEIR OWN, THE POWER DOORS WOULD LOCK AND UNLOCK ON THEIR OWN, AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL.

2013 CHRYSLER 200 3.6L V-6 80,000 MILES. DURING THE 2018 WINTER IN NOTICED MY CAR WAS NOT COMING UP TO RUNNING TEMPERATURE AND NO T GETTING GOOD HEAT OUT OF THE VENTS ON DRIVERS AND PASSENGER VENTS. I CHANGED THE THERMOSTAT AND NOTICED A LOT OF GRIT AND WHAT LOOKS LIKE DIRT IN THE ANTIFREEZE, BUT NOW THE CAR COMES UP TO RUNNING TEMPERATURE AND NOW I GET GOOD HEAT OUT OF DRIVER SIDE VENT BUT NOT OUT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE VENT. I HAVE BEEN DOING SOME READING ON CHRYSLER 200 FORUMS AND I SEE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME PROBLEMS I AM HAVING AND SAYING THE CAUSE IN IS THAT THE HEATER CORE IS PLUGGED AND IS ABOUT $900.00 TO $1200.00 TO FIX. IS CHRYSLER GOING TO COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIRS? THE CAUSE OF THE HEATER CORE BEING PLUGGED IS WHEN TO BLOCKS WERE BEING PORED AND MACHINED LEAVING SAND AND OTHER DEBRIS IN THE BLOCKS BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT CLEANED PROPERLY.

THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM KEEPS DRAINING THE BATTERY WHICH MAKES THE CAR STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF OPERATION. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE ROADWAY AND IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.
