On November 21, 2020, the 7th day I purchased my car from car max, I drove my car from tx to ar. Nearly halfway to ar the dashboard lights started flickering and went off and on several times. I could not believe it has it during the day time. Once I arrived in ar, the dashboard continued to flicker but there were no error messages on the dashboard to indicate a problem. Later that night, I drove to the store and in the store parking lot the car quit on me after the lights flickered several times!!! I am livid! I have a 5-year old daughter in the car with me! what if the car stops on the highway" why hasn't Chrysler fixed this issue? I'm just now reading about this issues with numerous car owners!!! I desire to have this investigated and fixed immediately! if something we're to happened to my child and I would that not be horrible" things like this should not exists as this is dangerousssssss!!! our lives are at stake and I do not appreciate that!

While driving home from work my 2015 Chrysler 200 abruptly loses all power in the middle of a busy road. The battery has been test and was fully charged, the alternator is completely fine. Also when the car shut off the hazards wouldn't even work..and leaves me to believe if I were to have gotten into an accident that day the airbags wouldn't have deployed. I am honestly terrified to get back into that car for safety reasons..this needs to be fixed. One week after buying the car the low beams work whenever they want to. Too many problems!!

So it all started when my car radio shorted out and wasn't working and my odometer started flashing. After about a week of driving with the radio unplugged, the car battery starts draining itself to a dead battery. Now the car sits and doesn't hold a charge for more than 1 hour. My dash lights up on its own when the key fobs are not in or near the car. I've changed the battery's to the key fobs and when I attempt to start the car it states that the key fob is not detected.

1) power train-while traveling on interstate at 65mph the transmission pops out of gear. I had to pull over put the car in park and then back to drive before it would go. It also happened when I was pulling away from a stop sign making a right turn it popped out of gear and wouldn't go. I drifted to the side of the road stopped, went to park and back to drive. The car acts confused form time to time. From a stop position at take off the transmission jerks and then thumps before it goes into gear. 2). cruise control- traveling down interstate in the mountain region of N. Georgia, my cruise was set for 55mph. The cruise picked up speed up to 70 mph then the car started jerking very confused at what it was suppose to be doing. The brake wouldn't release the cruise control. I did get it released once the RPM's settled down. It has happen several times at various locations in the mountains and on flat ground. 3) the head lights are the worst lights I've ever seen on a car. When going down the road you may have 30 ft. That you can see in front of you. When going up and incline what so ever. Your visibility from the headlight is approximately 20 foot in front of you. Terrible headlights. Its scary going up any incline not being able to see what's 25 foot in front of you. All of these issues have been reported at my dealership. All of these issues have happen on more than one occasion.

Vehicle suspension seems to have gone bad. 2015 sedan now sounds like an older car when riding over rough spots in pavement. Also, AWD not available light first flashed on when taking a left turn on rainy day. It was followed by service AWD indicator light coming on. At first these indicator lights would come on intermittently, but now come on each time engine is started and the service AWD light now stays on until the engine is shut off.

It"S been at least 8months since I?ve driven my own car because of all the safety hazards on it and I am pregnant. I feel to scared to drive it thinking that something may happen to me because the car wants to act up. Since about a month after I had financed the car I noticed that the air bag light was on and the transmission light would pop on and off. The car started to stay at a certain speed limit and would not accelerate no matter how hard or long I pressed on the gas pedal. I would then have to pull over to the side of the road and turn my car off and then turn it back on. This was ongoing for months.. it was my only transportation to work and I didn?T have the money to get a new car after just financing one and being young in the military. I had took it to my dealership when this happened and they told me that the transmission light would come up because the sensor for my oil wasn't reading and it was nothing to worry about and my air bag light came up because someone in the backseat must've stepped on it and it would still work but the light would be there. A lot of [xxx] but at the time I didn't know much so I went off of what they said. Later on the light would go on and off. For the first 6 month I believe I had replaced my lights 8 times thinking that it was normal to change it that often. Again I didn't know much about cars. But after getting it checked the dealership had told me I have wiring issues and I my head lights and highbeams don"T work on the left hand side. And after letting a friend use my car for a day I believe they've gone out completely. Today I went to drive my car literally 5min away from my house to the store to just turn it on and my car started shaking while I was driving it. Oh and my battery has gone out before on me a couple of times in the past and it did that to me today while I was on a hill which was really dangerous.

Randomly if I hit a bump my airbag light will come on. Now for a 2015 200 limited why am I needing to replace the whole starter assembly and now to have to replace the air shutter grille. The vehicle headlamps are extremely poor. It's very hard to see see on all highways, side streets etc. Now the traction stabilizers light came on as I was backing in to a parking space as well as my brakes just started making a squealing noise out no where as driving on the street. There no reason why there should not be a recall on multiple vehicle issues as most people are stating. Why isn't there a number I can call to file a compliant with all the vehicle issues I've experienced? this just crazy then to have to come outta $1,300 for vehicle repairs is crazy! why does this vehicle stall when the oil is low shameful for the vehicle to stop and and barely start back! tires sucks outside mirrors always have to adjust this brand is garbage!! people everywhere is having issues with the vehicle starting.. please do something about these vehicle issues. There is no reason why this vehicle is 3 years old and is stalling this is embarrassing. On top of having to pay a note that ridiculous. I want to be compensated in the amount of the vehicle repairs.

While driving the vehicle the dashboard/instrument cluster keeps on flashing in and out, staying off for at lease 5 seconds at a time. At night the headlights also flicker on and off. The car also tends to pick up speed while braking. Lets talk about the brakes, the brakes absolutely suck, they don't hold properly at all. While coming to a stop I often have to sink my foot into the peddle and give myself extra feet to stop.

I have a 2015 Chrysler 200 that has been having some issue with the dash lights flickering and now the lights are going completely out. I thought the instrument panel was the only feature affected until today on my way to work the headlights completely went out as well creating a very bad situation on the highway. I was unable to see while driving down the road for a brief period of time. I just check it for recalls but did not find my vehicle however there are other earlier models that appear to be having a similar issue that were covered by recall is there any way that a recall may be arriving on this vehicle? I have also noticed that the service air bag light came on shortly before all of this started as well as a code was tripped for faulty coolant sensor as well. All maintenance and upkeep has been done on this vehicle including tires pressure sensor replaced and routine oil change as well.
