2011 CHRYSLER 200 Complaints

AT RANDOM TIMES, THE CAR WILL JUST SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING L OR TURNING. ABSOLUTELY NO POWER FOR A LITTLE BIT. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIME. I AM UNSURE IF THIS ELECTRICAL OR SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ENGINE. I HAVE CALLED TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL SHE WAS TOLD THERE WASN'T. I HAVE SEEN MULTIPLE POSTS ONLINE SPEAKING OF THIS SAME PROBLEM FROM QUITE A FEW PEOPLE

SO MY CAR HAS STALLED OVER 10 TIMES SINCE 2018 SINCE IT HAS DIED MY INSURANCE COMPANY WILL NO LONGER COME UNTIL I GET THIS FIXED . WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY AND BUSY ROAD WHILE ACCELERATING MY RPMS WILL DROP TO ZERO AND I WILL LOOSE POWER STEERING. IF I'M LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I HAVE TO TURN MY CAR OFF WAIT 45 MINS TO RESTART CAR WILL NOT TURN OVER. I HAVE DONE AN ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSTICS AND NOTHING COMES UP.

IN 3 WEEKS TIME THE CAR STALLED MIDWAY IN THE HIGHWAY WHILE DRIVING AS IF IT WERE GOING TO TURN OFF. I TOOK IT IN FOR REPAIRS AND IT WAS THE SHOCK PLUGS. THEN THE BRAKES WERE NOT WORKING. I TOOK THE CAR TO REPLACE ALL FOUR BRAKES. A DAY LATER THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER DRIVING MY SON TO SCHOOL THE CAR PULLED BACK AND SHOOK AND SHUT DOWN. I TOOK IT BACK IN FOR REPAIRS AND IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR. TODAY THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FROZE MIDWAY. THIS IS THE MOST UNSAFE CAR AND ALL SHOULD BE RECALLED IN GENERAL.

RECALL INVOLVING (2019) NEWSPAPER CLIPPING EMMISIONS CATALYTIC CONVERTERS WHICH WAS BAD ABT A YR NOW. I NOTICED IT GETTING LOUD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE LOST POWER WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER AND WAITED AWHILE. UPON RESTARTING THE VEHICLE, IT OPERATED NORMALLY; HOWEVER, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ROUEN CHRYSLER DODGE (1091 FREMONT PIKE, WOODVILLE, OH 43469, (419) 273-9944) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A NEW CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS NEEDED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED LATER THE SAME DAY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 167,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHRYSLER 200. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE NUMBER 10 FUSE HAD MALFUNCTIONED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. ERTLEY MOTORWORLD (150 MOTORWORLD DR, WILKES BARRE, PA) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,000.

THE AIRBAG THAT WAS IN MY DRIVER SIDE HEAD REST POPPED OUT WITH MY CAR TURNED OFF, AND PARKED WHILE I WAS SETTING IN THE DRIVER SEAT. THE CAR WAS NOT HIT. I REACHED OVER TO GET MY PURSE OUT OF THE PASSAGE SIDE AND WHEN I SET BACK UP AND STARTED TO EXIT THE CAR, IT RELEASED. (HITTING ME IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD)

ON JAN 3RD 2019 I HAD AN ACCIDENT (FRONT IMPACT) AND THE FRONT AIRBAGS DEPLOYED - BUT THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS - THE AIRBAGS DID NOT EVEN COME CLOSE TO MY FACE -- IT WAS 10 INCHES AWAY FROM MY FACE AND IMMEDIATELY DEFUSED. I WAS REALLY APPALLED AND I STRONGLY BELIEVE ITS A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG AND IT WAS NO WAY SAVING MY LIFE. BOTH AIRBAGS IN THE FRONT WAS THE SAME WAY. I NEED HELP FROM NHSTA TO INVESTIGATE THE CAR AND IDENTIFY IF INDEED ITS A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG SO WE CAN WORK WITH THE MANAUFACTURER

WHEN ACCELERATING MY CAR WILL DIE AND NOT START FOR TWO HOURS. THE FIRST TIME I WAS LEAVING A STOP SIGH AND IT DIED SO I COASTED TO THE SIDE. THE SECOND TIME I PULLED OUT TO PASS A SLOW VEHICLE GOING 40 MPH AND THE CAR DIED. BOTH TIMES I HAD TO LEAVE IT FOR A COUPLE HOURS AND THEN IT STARTED. THIS HAPPENED A MONTH APART. FIRST TIME WAS IN THE CITY AND THE SECOND TIME WAS ON THE HIGHWAY. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK IT TO A CLOSE BY CHRYSLER DEALER WHO SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND CHARGED 100 DOLLARS TO HOOK IT UP TO THERE DIAGNOSTIC READER.

I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THE CAR AT SPEEDS OF BETWEEN 15MPL TO 70MPH ON COUNTRY ROADS, HIGHWAYS AND FREEWAYS WHEN THE ENGINE SIMPLY SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED 14 TIMES DURING THE LAST EIGHT MONTHS BETWEEN MAY 23, 2018, AND JANUARY 10, 2019, 1/10/19 BEING LAST TIME IT HAPPENED, ALTHOUGH IT HAS HAPPENED 14 TIMES AS INDICATED PREVIOUSLY INDICATED. IT WAS AS IF I HAD SIMPLY TURNED OFF THE IGNITION. I HAVE HAD THE CAR INTO A DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS TWICE AND NEITHER ME, THE DEALERSHIP TECHNICIAN NOR THE CHRYSLER AGENT THE TECHNICIAN CONTACTED HAS BEEN ABLE TO DETERMINE THE COMPONENT PART OR SYSTEM THAT COULD BE THE CAUSE OF THE ENGINE SHUTTING DOWN. ON JANUARY 10, 2019, I WAS TRAVELING ON A BUSY FREEWAY (BELTWAY 8) KN HOUSTON TX AND EXITED THE OFF RAMP ONTO 249 ((TOMBALL PARKWAY) WHEN THE ENGINE STALLED COASTING TO A STOP IN A MOVING LANE OF TRAFFIC WITH CARS, TRUCKS AND 18-WHEELERS PASSING ME AT 50-60MPS. I HAVE ATTACHED A DESCRIPTION OF EACH TIME THE ENGINE STALLED AND REPAIRS THAT WERE DONE AND THE WORK THAT WAS DONE ON THE CAR.
