2013 CHRYSLER 200 Complaints

THE SEAT BELTS AND AIRBAGS ARE IN JEOPARDY OF NOT WORKING PROPERLY AND NO REMEDIES WON'T BE FOUND UNTIL JUNE 2017 WHAT IF AN ACCIDENT HAPPENS BEFORE THEN AND I OR A FAMILY MEMBER IS SERIOUSLY INJURED

31 DAYS AFTER PURCHASING MY VEHICLE THE BLOWER FOR THE HEAT AND AIR CONDITIONING BEGAN TO SPUTTER AND WORK SPORADICALLY THEN COMPLETELY QUIT A WEEK OR SO LATER AS A RESULT AN ESSENTIALLY NEW VEHICLE HAS NO HEATBAND NO DEFROST WHICH I'VE LEARNED IS DANGEROUS WHEN IT'S RAINING AS I CAN'T SEE OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD. I BELIEVE THIS IS AM ELECTRICAL ISSUE NOT ONLY BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE BLOWER BROKE BUT SOMETIMES THE POWER WINDOWS WILL STOP WORKING THEN WORK AGAIN. WARNING LIGHTS WILL FLASH ON FOR NO REASON THEN DISAPPEAR. THE GAS LIGHT WILL STAY ON LONG AFTER GAS HAS BEEN PUT IN THE CAR DO THAT I HAVE TO TURN THE COMPLETELY OFF THEN BACK ON TO MAKE IT GO AWAY.

AS I WAS DOING 70 MPH ON THE HWY MY CAR STARTED SLOWING DOWN TO 30 MPH AND WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED, THE SYMBOLS THAT CAME ON THE CAR WERE FOR THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL AND THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF AND AFTER A MINUTE OR SO, I RESTARTED THE CAR AND CONTINUED ON, AFTER BEING ABLE TO DRIVE ONLY A FEW FEET, IT STARTED AGAIN. ONCE I MADE IT HOME, I LET THE CAR SIT OVERNIGHT AND WHEN I DROVE INTO WORK THIS MORNING AFTER 14 MINUTES ON THE HWY, IT STARTED AGAIN.
