The car engine periodically loses power. My mechanic did a diagnostics and said the problem is with the Throttle Control Actuator, the code is P2173. Although my car is not included in the recall, my Mechanic is sure it is a default issue by Chrysler. I am experiencing the same malfunctioning problems as other Chryslers that were being recalled for engine losing power. This has happened while driving on the expressway, I had to put on my caution light and pray until I could get to my Mechanic's shop. I informed Chrysler about this and I kept getting the runaround. This car only has 36,000 miles on it, even though it's a 2013; my Mother owned this car before me and we both take very good care of all the maintenance for the car. The safety problem is that this issue can happen anytime without warning and I am afraid to even drive the car especially on the highway or expressway, but it is unavoidable at times.

My 2013 Chrysler 200 has stalled or shut off completely while driving. The steering wheel and brakes lock up and the car just stops running. There are never any warnings or lights ahead of time to indicate there is any problem. The car simply just shuts off while driving and will not start back up right away. After sitting for about an hour untouched, the car will start right up and run fine until it happens again. No mechanic can diagnose it because there are no lights or codes to run to say what the issue is. My third time this happened, I was in a busy intersection attempting to make a turn and was almost t-boned when my car couldn't move out of the intersection. After the car shuts down and I attempt to restart right away, all the lights on the dash light up, but none stay on once the car stops cranking or even when the car does actually start up again. This is very dangerous for myself and any one else I may have in my car with me. I am a mother and I do not feel safe ever having my kids in my car with me. I've read online that this has happened to so many others but no recall will ever be done to fix this issue.

Engine failure, speed control doesn't work, car keeps cutting off, does not pick up speed, jerks really bad, shifts gears by it self at times, air bags are recalled, the car has been at the chrysler dealership for over 6 months they keep saying different things are wrong with it not sure completely what the issues are just know a few. I was told the car is still jerking and cutting off which was the problem when I brought the car in they are charging me almost $800 for work done and was promised the car would be fixed but the car still has the same exact issues from the moment I brought it in. And being told it is still not drivable after being worked in by Chrysler mechanics for over 6 months.

The contact owns a 2013 Chrysler 200. The contact stated while operating the vehicle, the brake warning light remained illuminated. The brake pedal felt spongy when depressed, causing the braking distance to be extended. The vehicle was serviced multiple times for the failure. The ABS module, brake booster and brake master cylinder were replaced however, the failure persisted. Additionally, the vehicle occasionally stalled and loss motive power while driving at various speeds. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer however, the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 13,000.

Vehicle died while driving 40-45 mph in traffic would not restart until after sitting for 30 min to 2 hours. There was no warning before it died, it was running normally. After it restarted the service engine light flashed then stayed on solid for a couple days. I was told it was the crankshft position sensor so I had that replaced. The car then 3 weeks later while driving started chugging really bad. I was then told the ignition coil on #2 cylinder was misfiring. I had that replaced along with all spark plugs and car ran the same after driving 4-5 miles then died and no restart. The repair shop found the #2 ignition coil melted into the valve cover and it had also cracked the valve cover. They replaced the valve cover and the #2 ignition coil and it happened again. The car is currently at the Chrysler dealership and premliminary estimate is an electrical problem sending too much voltage to that cylinder.so far there has been 2 ignition coils melted. I have been without ability to drive my car for 4 weeks now. Please put a recall on this problem !

Vehicle randomly stalls during operation. This occurred at an interstate intersection. It can occur at random times and throws no code. This is a very dangerous defect in these vehicles.

Car loss all power while driving down a city street in motion could not steer or do nothing would not crank up after about 10 minutes it started right up.this has happened 5 times while driving very dangerous. This has been going on for about a year. The last time it did this is February 18, 2021.

I have owned this car for 3 years. A year after owning it I began having issues with the engine shutting down while driving. It is random and happens with no warning, no check engine light or any indication that it's going to happen. It has happened in traffic where I was almost rear ended by a semi because when the engine dies I lose power steering and can't get it off the road. Sometimes it will restart right away other times it takes an hour or more. This has happened while on the highway and city streets. Most commonly it happen when I have to take my foot off the accelerator and then reapply, like slowing down for a car turning in front of me, taking a turn and taking an exit ramp. This has happened many times over the last couple years. I have had it at a dealership and they can't diagnose a problem or recommend a fix. I have also been in contact with the manufacturer and they told me there was nothing they could do and I would just have to drive the car and take it back in if the problem worsens. That is not an option because it is either going to get me stranded on the side of the road or in an accident.

My 2013 Chrysler 200 stalls intermittently without warning. Sometime at stop light or when decelerating. Have driven through a intersection to see it stall. Have to then stop. Put into park and restart. Very scary.

- Raymond, NH, USA

My car has just under 50,000 miles on it and is well maintained. Twice in the past week, the engine has stalled while coming to a stop at the exact same stop sign. There is no warning prior, during, or after. I have been able to put the car in park and it has started right back up.

This is my second compliant, though I should've been complaining since buying this vehicle in June 2016. My car wouldn't start and the engine would stall, no battery issue. All of a sudden a month later it started. I took it to my mechanic he said the engine light said a catalytic converter...but the catalytic converter does not need replaced. I have have my serpentine belt replaced 7 times in the last 3 years. I can hear my engine shifting roughly. In the month I bought the vehicle, I took it to the dealership to see what was wrong and why my RPM was going up when parked and the engine would stall. They told me if I didn't use the different fuel (which I only did twice) that it would stop. I was stuck with the car, and still am. My 'gas cap' light has been going on and off for years. I had my fuel system checked and a valve was replaced, sensors have been replaced. My engine now sounds worse than ever with knocking, whirring and shakes almost always. I'm told there is an electrical issue and/or the engine tensioner but no one can truly pinpoint the issue....it's extremely frustrating. Please recall this lemon. I have told everyone possible to never buy this brand of vehicle. This purchase was the worst mistake of my life.

Car shut down when slowing and turning and randomly. There is not warning and car will not immediately start back up. Mostly on city streets but in traffic areas and curved roads. So when turning left and slowing down for that turn it just shuts down and I barely make to pull it to the side of the road and I had to have it towed home when it wouldn't start back up right away. This has happened 5-6 times in the last 3 months after I have purchased the car from instant auto.

I have 3 Chrysler vehicles and every one has had the heater core go bad! last year it was our 2013 Dodge avenger. Now it is the 2013 and 2014 Chrysler 200's we own. The heat stopped working in all 3 of these vehicles...all within 1 year of eachother. There has to be some sort of defect in order for the same thing to happen to all 3 of these Chrysler. I wanted to report this if you keep any sort of record of complaints at all in hope of getting a recall made on this. Just by looking on the internet it looks like many others have this problem as well. Thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

On multiple occasions the car has just shut off on its own while in motion. This has happened at least 10 times. Does not matter what speed you are going, the engine will just shut off on its own. The most recent incidents were on a highway going around 55mph and happened twice within a 8 minute period. The first time was going over a bridge and the car shut off. Waited about 3 minutes and the car started. 5 minutes later the car shut off again. Did not restart for another 10 minutes.

After my vehicle was recalled for the tcm, it has not worked properly. I almost got into an accident because the car seems to slip into neutral while driving. I will be driving and suddenly the power drops and then it pops back into drive if you press the gas hard enough. It's dangerous and embarrassing.

My 2013 Chrysler 200 S keeps stalling. I replaced the fuel pump, bought a new battery, and had my alternator and transmission looked at, all the transmission shop found was an oil pressure code, and they cleared it.

My 2013 Chrysler stalls out when driving or at idle. I keep up with maint.

- Pompano Beach, FL, USA

My engine keeps stalling when I decelerate or come to a complete stop. It has done this multiple times in just one week and it's very dangerous. I slowed down on I-77 due to something laying in the highway and my engine shut off. I had to hurt and put it in neutral to crank it back up. Thank god it crunk it in time to keep me from being hit by another vehicle or semitrailer truck.

2013 Chrysler 200 limited stalls out while driving. Started Sept. 2019, and has happen (eight times) almost monthly or every 500 miles. No warning- no power steering; no power brakes. After stalling- car cranks and can take up to 1-2 hrs before engine will turn over again. I have taken vehicle to four separate mechanics; including Chrysler dealership and not one has been able to diagnose problem. Also, car does not throw any codes. I have replaced the battery; fuel pump and had PCM update and vehicle still stalling out while driving.
