2015 CHRYSLER 200 Complaints

IN THE MORNING I WAS BACKING INTO A PARKING SPOT WHILE SLIGHTLY TURNING AND THE CAR STARTED ACTING UP AND THEN DIED. WOULDN'T START WITH START BUTTON. AFTER PLACING THE REMOTE NEXT TO START BUTTON AND WAITING A BIT I WAS ABLE TO START IT UP AFTER A FEW TRIES. FINISHED PARKING. AFTER WORK, I WAS DRIVING HOME AND WAS WAITING TO TURN AND DO UTURN AND THE CAR ONCE MORE DIED. NOT SURE IF I WAS COMPLETELY STOPPED OR INCHING FORWARD WHILE WAITING FOR INCOMING TRAFFIC TO CLEAR. TRIED STARTING IT UP AGAIN THE SAME WAYS AS IN MORNING. THE CAR WOULDN'T START. AFTER STANDING 5 MINUTES IN A TURNING LANE, I GOT IT TO START. FINISHED THE DRIVE HOME WORRYING. ALSO WHILE DRIVING, TIME FROM TIME, ALL OF THE DASHBOARD FLICKER AND THEN GO COMPLETELY DARK. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, THEY COME BACK ON. THAT IS SPEED, RPM, GAS LEVEL, ENGINE TEMPERATURE, AND ALL OTHER DASHBOARD LIGHTS. CAUSES DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING AND ALSO RESULTS IN ME BEING UNABLE TO SEE SPEED THE CAR IS TRAVELING AT.

CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE BRAKING, AND TURNS EVERYTHING OFF. IT ALSO 'LOCKS' THE BRAKE, AND TAKES MINUTES TO RELEASE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS ALL LIGHTS TURN OFF, PUSH TO START WON'T WORK, AND ENGINE WILL NOT START. THE CAR CUTS OFF AT THE MOST INOPPORTUNE TIMES, AND MAKES DRIVING EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. IT'S BEEN SHUTTING OFF MORE FREQUENTLY, AND FOR LONGER MOMENTS AT A TIME. THIS USUALLY OCCURS ON STREET'S BUT HAS OCCURRED IN TWO DRIVE-THRUS. ON ONE OCCASION THE CAR SHUT OFF MID-TURN. AGAIN THIS MAKES DRIVING INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS, AND IS FRUSTRATING AND INCONVENIENT. THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION SO DRIVING HAS BECOME A RISK.

VEHICLE WILL NOT GO INTO THE "PARK" TRANSMISSION SETTING. RED LIGHT WITH AIR BAG WARNING.

FOR THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY CAR STARTING. THERE ARE NO INDICATORS THAT THERES ANY ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE. IT JUST TAKES ABOUT SEVERAL SECONDS TO GET A CRANK IN ORDER FOR THE CAR TO COME ON. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO GET IT LOOKED AT TO SEE WHAT THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM WAS. NO ISSUES WITH THE BATTERY OR STARTER. I HAD THE SPARK PLUGS CHANGED WITH AN OIL CHANGE AND STILL THE SAME ISSUE. SINCE THEN FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS UPON MY INITIAL START FOR THE DAY MY CAR HAS SHUT OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE RESIDENTIAL ROAD LESS THEN A MILE IN IT STOPS OUT OF NOWHERE LOCKS THE CAR UP SO IM UNABLE TO STIR THE CAR AND TELLS ME TO PART THE CAR IN PARK. AFTER THAT IM UNABLE TO GET THE CAR TO START AGAIN AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS THEN IT'LL FINALLY CRANK BACK UP AFTER PUTTING THE KEY FLOB NEXT TO THE PUSH START BUTTON. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY CAR. THIS IS DANGEROUS THANK GOD I WASNT ON THE HIGHWAY NOR WHERE CARS BEHIND ME. I HAVE CHECKED FOR RECALLS ON MY CAR AND ITS NOT INDICATING ANY FOR MINE IN PARTICULAR BUT THERE ARE RECALLS ON 2015 CHRYSLER 200 MODELS. MY CAR ISNT UNDER WARRANTY AND HAS OVER 100 THOUSAND MILES.

WE REPLACED A FUEL INJECTOR ON THE 2ND CYLINDER LAST FEBRUARY IN OUR CHRYSLER 2015 200S. WE BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW. HERE IT IS 11 MONTHS LATER WE ARE REPLACING THE FUEL INJECTOR ON THE 6TH CYLINDER. I TALK WITH SOMEONE AT FCA AND HE GAVE ME THE RUN AROUND, REFERRING ME TO WARRANTIES AND NOT REALLY TRYING TO HELP AND OF COURSE DENYING THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL INJECTORS IN THAT PARTICULAR CAR. I KNOW THERE CAN BE ISSUES WITH INJECTORS IF YOU DO NOT SERVICE THEM, WHICH WE GOT THE SERVICE, BUT SHORTING OUT; THERE IS A PROBLEM. THE CAR IS 5 YEARS OLD AND SHOULDN'T HAVE FUEL INJECTOR PROBLEMS; SHORTING OUT ESPECIALLY. ANYONE ELSE HAVING THIS ISSUE?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME DIFFICULT TO DEPRESS AS THE SHIFT TO PARK WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE GEAR SHIFTER DISLODGED IN PARK. THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER PUMPED THE BRAKE PEDAL MULTIPLE TIMES FOR THE SHIFTER TO ENGAGE CORRECTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC FAILED TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. WHILE PERFORMING A VIN SEARCH, THE CONTACT WAS MADE AWARE OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V090000 (POWER TRAIN) AS A POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO THE FAILURE HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 65,000.

THE VEHICLE WOULD CUT OFF AFTER STARTING & DRIVING A VERY SHORT DISTANCE THEN THE CHECK ENGINE/FLASHING LIGHTNING BOLT WOULD COME ON. ONCE THE CAR WAS OFF AND THEN RESTARTED, THE LIGHTS WOULD GO OFF AND IT MIGHT RUN FINE AS LONG AS YOU DIDN'T ACCELERATE TOO QUICKLY & DROVE A GOOD DISTANCE WITHOUT HAVING TO STOP AND START A LOT. THE ISSUE WOULD ARISE MORE WHEN DRIVING SHORT DISTANCES WITH CONSTANT STOPS & TIGHT TURNS OR SOMETIMES WHEN HAVING TO DE-ACCELERATE QUICKLY. ONCE THE CAR WAS OFF FOR A SECOND THEN RESTARTED, THE ONLY LIGHT THAT WOULD SOMETIMES STAY ON WOULD BE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THEREFORE, I TOOK THE CAR TO AN O'REILLYS FOR A FREE TEST & THE ONLY CODES THAT CAME BACK WAS P0302 - CYLINDER 2 MISFIRE & P2172 - THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL SYSTEM. THE ISSUE HAD GOTTEN WORSE SO I HAD A MECHANIC REPLACE ALL 4 SPARK PLUGS WITH NGK IRIDIUM PLUGS AND THE 2ND CYLINDER IGNITION COIL WITH A BOSCH IGNITION COIL. THE CYLINDER 2 MISFIRE CODE WENT AWAY WHEN RESTARTING THE VEHICLE BUT THE MAIN ISSUE PERSISTS, THE CAR WON'T STAY ON & THE P2172 TACS CODE IS STILL PRESENT. THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE & UNABLE TO DRIVE. THE DATE I'M USING FOR THE QUESTION OF WHEN THE ISSUE HAPPENED IS WHEN I HAD THE SPARK PLUGS AND IGNITION COIL REPLACED. THE ORIGINAL ISSUE STARTED AROUND THE 2ND WEEK OF DECEMBER SOMEWHERE BETWEEN DECEMBER 10TH-DECEMBER 14TH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND. ADDITIONALLY, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PARKING BRAKE ACTIVATED INDEPENDENTLY WITH AN UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF, RESTARTED, AND DRIVEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARKING BRAKE WA IN TRANSITION AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

VEHICLE, EVEN AFTER REPAIR CONTINUES TO HAVE FRONT-PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT. EVEN AFTER OIL LEVELS ARE CHANGED AND MAINTAINED, CABIN AND AIR FILTERS CHANGED, VEHICLE CONTINUES TO STALL EVEN AFTER SERVICING (BOTH PAID AND UNDER WARRANTY) CHRYSLER HAS NOT RESOLVED THE ISSUES THAT HARBOR MY VEHICLE AND OFFER NO SOLUTION. TEMP/ENGINE LIGHT ISSUE CAME ON DURING HIGHWAY TRAVEL. STALLING USUALLY OCCURS ON CITY AND RESIDENTIAL STREETS. BOTH IN MOTION.

MY 2015 CHRYSLER 200 HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 20 TIMES FOR MULTIPLE ELECTRONIC ISSUES AND TODAY I PUT MY CAR IN PARK AND WHEN I TURNED AROUND MY CSR CSMR OUT OF PSRK SND HIT A POLL
