The car stalled out and completely shut off as I was driving 30 mph. It was extremely dangerous and could've caused a accident. It wouldn't turn back on for about a minute. This has happened twice in the past week. I looked up other people who have had same issue and it shows there was a recall for the vehicle. A lot of others had the same issue. The recall number was S09. I need to know what I should do with my vehicle as soon as possible. It's too dangerous to drive. This happened with my kids in the car.

I am continuing to have a several transmission problems with the car since I bought it I was not aware of the issues that these vehicles had with transmission I have been to the Chrysler dealership more than once. Not only do they provide the word customer service that I have ever had but they told me that the car just needs to be updated like an iphone which is not something I've ever heard of. Today it would not shift into the correct gear and almost had me hit somebody in rear-end them it is very unsafe and has happened more than once. I need help.

Vehicle overheats after driving on highways and coming to an idle in traffic. There are no check engine lights, all liquids are topped off, car will then show no symptoms for a month or two later it will occur once again. Car randomly overheats in the most dangerous situations and there are no check engine lights that come up, while coolant is topped off. Examples of situations driving from san diego to la hour and 40 minutes into the drive we exit the freeway go to a drive-through at carl's jr. And the car begins to overheat there are no check engine lights and coolent was at the correct level, we pulled over allowed car to cool down, continued with our drive no other situation of car overheating return to san diego 2 hour drive no signs of overheating for the next two months. I'm driving through traffic car begins to overheat pull over and allow car to cool no signs of overheating for the next few weeks. About four other situations of the same nature occurred since, the car continues to indicate nothing is wrong yet the car continues to overheat

When hitting the breaks sometimes the vehicle stalls out in the middle of traffic having to put in park position and try to restart the car. Sometimes take a minute to even restart and it doesn't always let me shift it into drive right away. This in result could cause someone to rear end me. I am noticing there is a recall called R24 which seams to be what is happening to my vehicle.

While driving or accelerating from a stop my vehicle will lose all power and will display a message saying shift to park. The gear knob will flash and lock, the check engine light and other messages will pop up saying to service transmission. Also while accelerating my vehicle jumps. There was one time the vehicle completely stalled while turning. All of my driving is on city streets and very rarely do I drive on a highway.

The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. When the vehicle was stopped at a stop light, the vehicle stalled and lost power. The contact would have to depress the brake pedal for the vehicle to power back on and accelerate forward. The contact took the vehicle to don franklin campbellsville (located at 200 N bypass rd, campbellsville, ky, 42718, 877-702-2230) where it was diagnosed that the battery voltage circuit, control module, and front driver's side speed sensor failed. The vehicle was repaired, but the vehicle began to exhibit the same failure. The contact had to jumpstart the vehicle in order to drive. The contact took the vehicle to a certified mechanic who stated that diagnostic code: (tipm module U0001) appeared. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 30,000.

I've had multiple issues. First, my car stalled as I was driving down main streets, the first time I took it to the dealership, they said they couldn't find a problem with it. Second dealership I took it to said it was an electrical issue my car was having, kept it for a week, repaired the issue.second time I took it in was because my airbag alert illuminated on the dash, again, they said it was a wiring issue, someone had kicked the wiring loose under the passenger seat.then I had it towed in because it completely stopped on me while I was driving it.now it's in the shop because the malfunction came on, I still attempted to drive it to work, but when I went back out for lunch, it wouldn't start. Roadside jumpstarted it, and it started. Went back out when I got off work and it wouldn't start... however, while I was getting out, the dash lit up as and kept beeping as if the car was running, so I actually had to push the start button to turn it off, weird, right! but then as I'm walking away from the car, it's trying to accelerate on its own, as if I was trying to remote start it. Had it towed to dealership. They're diagnostic explanation for my car - my climate control module doesn't work, and I need a new battery, and yes my door panel had some faulty wires and they're waiting for the parts to repair this, but it's something I have to pay for. When I turn my car to the left, it sounds like something is going to break. My tires slide when it's raining, even though I purchased new ones. Also, my climate control has been beyond functioning. I drive 17 miles to and from work, and I have to turn it down because it's freezing sometimes. It's sad to know I purchased a lemon and that they cannot be honest about their recalls and making sure my safety comes before their negligence., and stop trying to coverup their screwups in manufacturing a total lemon.

My car stalls and dies when slowing for stoplights or slowing traffic. No check engine lights it does eventually restart. Terribly scary when I have my children in the car. No one can figure out what is wrong as it downs throw any codes and no idiot lights come on. This has happened multiple times today being the most recent.

Push button start requires foot on brake, car in park and press of button/ignition. When doing so, the engine will not start. Lights, radio, open door warning bells ding, but car will not start. Fuses and battery have been checked and are good. Car must be boosted off to start. Chrysler will not fix this on their dime even though there are recalls for this on other vehicles of the same make and model as mine. Service and recall team was very rude and refused to offer any help.

I have a 2015 Chrysler 200 S I have searched the recall database and it says all recalls have been performed. The vehicle has had issues since I have bought it and to no satisfaction has anything been completed. Lights on my dashboard are flashing and the screen is flashing different systems are malfunctioning. It sits in my driveway I am afraid to move it although now it says it has a misfire and the service AWD light is on. When I did drive it the service transmission light comes on and the car will not drive past 1500 RPM.

The car stalled at a stop sign and stalled again 3 times after that. It read shift to P to start I did that and it would not let me change gear after that. I know this is a common problem with the Chrysler 200 so it should be a recall. This is a huge safety issue it happened while driving in a roundabout and people could have rear ended me.

Car stops while driving it. Very dangerous. Happened twice with this vehicle almost causing an accident which could have been fatal. Engine stopped while car was going 45 mph in heavy traffic. Having it towed to a Chrysler dealer on the 10th of September is as soon as someone can look at it. This car only has 55,000 miles on it and should not be happening. Car has been well maintained and is still being financed.
