I BOUGHT MY 2012 CHRYSLER 200 IN 2013. I 'VE HAD A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING HOT BECAUSE SOME MALFUNCTION PREVENTS THE COOLANT FROM CIRCULATING THROUGH THE ENGINE. I HAVE SPENT OVER $2000.00 TRYING TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND NOW MY MECHANIC TELLS ME THE ENGINE IS NO GOOD AND I'LL NEED A NEW ONE. THIS HAPPENS WHEN I'M DRIVING. THE CAR WOULD RUN HOT, I'D TOW IT IN AND MY MECHANIC WOULD FIX IT. AND WITHIN A MONTH OR TWO, THE PROBLEM WOULD OCCUR AGAIN. MY MECHANIC RAN DIAGNOSTICS, HE REBOOTED THE COMPUTER SYSTEMS AND HE GETS THE COOLANT FLOWING AGAIN BUT WITHIN WEEKS OR A MONTH THE SAME PROBLEM REOCCURS. I DON'T DRIVE FAR TO WORK APPROX. 10 MILES DAILY COMMUTE. I MAY TAKE A ROAD TRIP ON OCCASION BUT THERE IS NO UNUSUAL WEAR OR TEAR ON THE VEHICLE. IM REPORTING THIS PROBLEM AUG 2016 BUT THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING ISSUE OVER THE YEARS AND THE CAR IS JUST FOR YEARS OLD. I BOUGHT IT USED IN 2013. I'VE SPENT SO MUCH MONEY FIXING THE SAME PROBLEM AND THE CAR'S PROBLEM ALWAYS SEEMS RESOLVED UNTIL A FEW MONTHS DOWN THE ROAD I HAVE TO FIX IT AGAIN. I HAVEN'T EVEN PAID THE CAR OFF AND ITS KAPUT AND READY FOR THE GRAVEYARD? THIS REALLY IS SOMETHING CHRYSLER NEEDS TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND FIX. I NEED A NEW ENGINE NOW AND I'VE ALREADY SPENT OVER $2000.00 TRYING TO FIX THIS ISSUE.

SINGLE SHORT RANDOM HIGH PITCHED BEEP COMING FROM DASH BUT NO WARNING LIGHTS. HAPPENED WHEN CAR WAS OFF AND KEYS WAS OUT SIDE THE CAR. WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, IT BEEPED AGAIN. ONCE AGAIN, NO LIGHTS. CHECKED ALL FLUIDS, ALL FULL. MY TPS SENSOR LIGHT HAS BEEN ON SINCE I BOUGHT IT 2 YEARS AGO. JUST NEEDS A NEW SENSOR BUT IT'SEEMS NEVER MADE A SOUND.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MAD AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MILES PER HOUR, THE HOOD FLEW UP, AND BACK, INTO THE WINDOW AND MARKED THE ROOF. WE DISCOVERED THAT THE HOOD RELEASE HAD BEEN PULLED EARLIER, INSTEAD OF TRUNK RELEASE. MY ISSUE, AFTER CLOSING THE NOW "SPRUNG" HOOD, WE TESTED THE SECONDARY "SAFETY" LATCH, IT DID NOT HOLD

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND THE HORN RANDOMLY SOUNDED WITHOUT WARNING. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE RANDOMLY STALLED NUMEROUS TIMES. A PASS TIME FAILURE OCCURRED AND THE DEALER REWIRED THE VEHICLE. A MECHANIC INDICATED THAT THE TIPM WAS FAULTY AND MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE MECHANIC SUGGESTED THAT THE VEHICLE BE TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR FURTHER INSPECTION. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND THE CONTACT WAS UNCERTAIN AS TO WHY THEY INDICATED THAT THE ORC MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, BUT DID NOT VERIFY IF THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V282000 (AIR BAGS AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS TO CHECK WITH THE MANUFACTURER TO DETERMINE A REPAIR SOLUTION FOR THE VEHICLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,444.

AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON INTERMITTENTLY. I TOOK TO DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID WOULD BE FEE FOR DOING SENSOR CHECK. WE CALLED CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. I TOOK TO ADVANCE AUTO AND THEY RAN A SENSOR CHECK FOR FREE FOR ME AND THEY SAID THERE WERE "ZERO" ISSUES OR PROBLEMS WHICH IS NOT RIGHT BECAUSE THE LIGHT AND DINGING COME ON INTERMITTENTLY EVERY FEW MINUTES WHEN DRIVING. WHAT IS STRANGE IS THAT IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN MY HUSBAND IS DRIVING THE CAR. WHEN I DRIVE IT, IT DOESN'T HAPPEN. THE LADY AT THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS STRANGE, BUT THAT THE TRANSMISSION RECOGNIZES DIFFERENT PEOPLE DRIVING AND TRIES TO ADJUST FOR IT AND MAYBE THAT WAS IT? THE OTHER DEALERS SAID THAT WAS SOMETHING THEY'D NEVER HEARD OF. MEANWHILE, THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO IF THERE IS NO SENSOR LIGHT APPEARING WHEN I TAKE IT IN, OR NOT SHOWING UP ON THE ERROR REPORT FROM THE SCAN. SO, I AM STUCK WITH DRIVING A CAR THAT CONSTANTLY DINGS, LIGHTS COME ON, AND WHEN I READ THE MANUAL IT SAID "TAKE TO THE DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY IF THIS HAPPENS!". IT IS SCARY, ESPECIALLY WHEN I HAVE MY CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN IN THE CAR, TO WORRY WHETHER MY AIRBAG IS GOING TO EXPLODE AT ANY GIVEN TIME WITHOUT NOTICE. I WOULD SINCERELY REQUEST CHRYSLER TAKE CARE OF THIS ISSUE. *TR

THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP IN HARRISONBURG VA TO BE REPAIRED. THEY ONLY FIXED THE ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINTS. MY CAR FAILED A STATE INSPECTION DUE TO MY AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATING. I HAVE READ THAT "CERTAIN" CHRYSLER 200'S 2012 THEY ARE TO REPROGRAM THE TIPM THEN REPLACE THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT MODULE IF NEEDED. THEY REFUSED TO REPLACE THIS GAVE ME AN ESTIMATE OF $400. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY ALSO SAID MY CAR WAS NOT RECALLED BASED ON THE VIN AND MY ISSUE. I AM A SINGLE MOTHER WITH TWO KIDS MY CAR HAS 67,000 MILES ON IT HAS NEVER BEEN WRECKED OR DAMAGED AND I BELIEVE CHRYSLER SHOULD REPLACE THIS. MY CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD AN AIRBAG SHOULD NOT BECOME DEFECTIVE IN 4 YEARS. THIS EXACT ISSUE IS WHAT OTHER 2012 CHRYSLER 200S HAVE ALSO. I AM STILL UNABLE TO HAVE MY CAR PASS A STATE INSPECTION AND I ALSO INFORMED CHRYSLER THAT WHEN PASSENGERS RIDE IN THAT SEAT THEY ARE PUTTING LIVES AT RISK BY NOT ACTING QUICKLY. IT IS DANGEROUS AND CHRYSLER SHOULD RECALL ALL 2012 200'S. IT HEY INFORMED ME THE PROBLEM IS IN THE DASH I DON'T EVEN FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR WHAT IF MY AIR BAGS DON'T DEPLOY? I WILL LIVE WITH THAT THE REST OF MY LIFE AND CHRYSLER SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR NEGLIGENCE. JUST BECAUSE MY VIN NUMBER DOESN'T MATCH AT THIS TIME OR THE TIME FRAME THEY CLAIM THE DEFECTS WERE INSTALLED DOESN'T MEAN THE PART THEY INSTALLED ISN'T DEFECTIVE. I HOPE YOU ALL TAKE THIS MATTER VERY SERIOUSLY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD TAKE OR SAVE LIVES.

TAKATA RECALL - I NEVER RECEIVED ANY INFORMATION REGARDING THIS RECALL. I AM JUST NOW (JULY 2016) EXPERIENCING THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT COMING ON AND A WARNING TONE BEING EMITTED RANDOMLY WHILE I'M IN MOTION. I'M INTERESTED TO KNOW IF I CAN STILL TAKE MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT WORKED ON UNDER N38 13V282?
