I have a Chrysler 200 2011 with 67,000 miles. This winter the passenger side heat no longer works at all, leaving me without defrost as well. This issue is the same whether in idle or driving. I have had the radiator flushed twice, the thermostat replaced, filter replaced, etc. There is still no resolution to the issue and I have been told now that the next step is replacing the heater core and the radiator itself. I have been reading the other complaints about the same issue with Chrysler and can't understand how this is not a safety issue and hasn't been recalled yet. Is it because even mopar technicians can't figure out the problem? my technician says it seems like he's chasing a ghost. This problem needs fixed and Chrysler should be responsible!

In 2011, I purchased a new Chrysler 200S. The list price was $27, 835. In 2015, the heat in my vehicle stopped working and only blew out cold air. I was told by the Chrysler mechanic that I needed to replace the heating core. I went to lloyd's automotive and paid $300 for a heating flush as lloyd's informed me that a car that is only 4 years old should not have issues with the heating core. Later in 2015 my heat went out again. I took my car back to lloyd's auto and was informed that I should have the heating core replaced. The parts were on back order because other owners of this car were also having issues with the heating core. I did some research online and found that this was accurate but Chrysler had not ordered a recall. Owners of this car were having to have the heating core replaced. I reside in Minnesota where the temperature drops below zero. I could not get my car repaired. This limited my social outings as I have a child and could not have him driving around in a cold car. I feel that Chrysler should recall this vehicle to fix the heating core.

Continued problems with heating system on Chrysler 200, year 2011, touring model, V6 pen star engine: Lack of heat on passenger side, & side windows fogging up. Little to no heat on driver's side. I have taken the car to the Chrysler dealership 4 X and each time, they flush and check the heating lines and say there is nothing wrong, that I have heat. The heat seems a little better for a short while, then the same thing happens again, I lose heat and only cold air is blowing out of vents with heat setting on max. I paid for an extended warranty when the vehicle was purchased new. I am told each time there is nothing wrong. There has to be something wrong! I never owned a vehicle with this problem and am very disappointed. What am I to do with no heat and subzero temps.?? now the driver's side has little to no heat and windows are fogging up. There must be a manufacturer defect in the heating system on these vehicles.
