My vehicle rear ended a stopped pick up truck at approximately 35-40mph. Prior to and during the accident, the forward collision warning didn't activate in time to help stop the car as well as the air bags never deployed throughout the accident.

Muiltple problems with the engine. It's been replaced &I I'm still having a problem with it.. this is the second time have to pay a deductible due to the car randomly shutting off. Shifting into N.. the first time they said it was an internal engine leak:.. then within a few months I started having the same issue. I've had the car for a years & I haven't been able to move it in 3 months. The car keeps having problems after problem and it's still under the warranty.. but I'm paying the payments on a car I can't use for no other reason but factory problems

Last week I was making a left turn onto busy road( traffic coming at me from both directions) when my car stalled out with no warning( I assumed maybe low oil or gas, so I added more oil and filled gas in gas tank)today I was driving and my car stalled out with no warning again, I tried starting my car again and it wouldn't start the first few times and finally when I did get it started I pressed the gas and nothing was happening

I had just left my house and was driving 25 mph when my Chrysler 200 cut off. The screen read, shift to park to start. I shifted into park and tried to restart the car but it didnt start. Then I waited about 30 seconds and tried to start it again and it started. This was the second time I had this problem. Everytime the car shut off, it was after driving only a few minutes at 25 mph. I almost got hit by another car both times and it was pretty scary because I often drive with my three yr old. The car is a lemon and Chrysler should give everybody their money back or most of it. Chrysler is playing with peoples lives and recalling it doesnt solve the problem.

After shifting into reverse or drive, the car will not move, then suddenly slams into gear and lunges abruptly. This has happened several times and it is frightening when in traffic. Also, after shifting into reverse or drive and beginning to move, the car suddenly jolts to a stop and feels like it's digging in, and will not move. It then indicates the parking brake has been engaged when I never touched the parking brake. This has also happened numerous times and is also frightening when merging into traffic. When the brake suddenly engages, all on it's own Accord, it is difficult to get it to release.

Brakes, front wheel bar or something, thermostat, bought the car in August 2017. Haven't driven it very much at all. Now all these problems and I paid a great deal for this car. The transmission also acts funny at times. Not wanted to shift or shifts hard. The car was on the highway when the thermostat went out. Everything dropped on the screen and red thermostat came on and red letters about something hot stabilizer, throttle body, something.

Driving to work and all of a sudden I got two alerts on my dashboard signaling engine temperature hot and to service electric throttle control. The cars performance after these alerts was poor and it was very loud. It was struggling to get past 40mph. Took it to a shop and found my thermostat, the housing, and sensor needed replacing. Also found out the memory of the controller needed to go back to a dealer to be erased and re programmed which is not my fault.

Have had vehicle approx 1 yr. While driving 45mph on city street check engine came on with engine overheat msg and engine cooling sensor as well. Replaced sensor and while driving the next day on highway at 70 mph to see if the system readjusts itself to the new sensor message came on again with added service elecrtrical throttle control msg and check engine lights again. I was near oreill and it produced codes for thermostat, cooling sensor, system performance, etc. Messages are not on screen now but check engine lights still on. I believe it triggers when cooling temp reaches appx, 189 F. after doing some research many others are experiencing these issues and seems the problem escalates to much worse such as shutting off while driving. No recalls thus far but many people anticipating someone needing to die before something is done. I drive with my children almost all of the time and am very concerned.
