Hello I've submitted and reached out plenty of times about a faulty transmission that when accelerated feels like it's in neutral then gets a gear and causes vehicle to make a harsh sound when kicks into gear and have almost gotten into plenty of accidents due to this. Also air bag sensor in passenger seat turns on everytime someone gets in as if it doesn't work properly.

My vehicle jerks when first starting off, engine on and airbag light been on over a year when I first purchase this vehicle they had to shampoo driver seat. After 2 or 3 months I took car for oil change and report the car jerking sometimes when taking off the mechanic took me I didn't need an oil change, and the car jerking was because it was new..so I believe him. They changed my oil for a year and randomly I told them it still jerk..it would jerk in the city on my job and on interstate.

The airbag light goes off for no reason, had in the shop 3 times and they keep resetting the light. The last time they said that it may possibly have a short somewhere in the harness

My airbag light comes on and off, most of the time it stays on though. Also, the car will die after driving and will stall while driving. It also appears that there are some sort of electrical issues with the car and the gears shift strange, sometimes throwing me forward while driving.

Airbag light came on in mid to late 2018. Car had ~65,000 at the time. Had the car diagnosed at the dealership and they said it was a wiring harness and charged me $300 to fix it. March 2019, the airbag light comes on. It appears on the dash for no apparent reason as I'm driving at highway speeds. After the initial audible and visual alarm, the visual alarm stays on and the audible alarm repeats every minute. Returned the car to the dealership (autopark Chrysler Jeep in cary, North Carolina) expecting that the repair would be covered due to the recent repair. They told me it was a different wiring harness and it would be ~$3300. When I asked the service manager if the car was hazardous to drive, he responded "absolutely". I have since parked the car and it has sat idle since.

I purchased my 200 in 2017, the ABS indicator light will not go off, there actually a recall but, my VIN doesn't show it. My emergency park has ignites on its while stationary at a stop sign and while in traffic at a red light, thankfully there wasn't any semi-trucks behind me because, there would have been a fatality. The car has lost power while in motion at least 3 times. Just recently my car become stuck in neutral and the car would not move. I called Chrysler, they stated that it was a powertrain issue and it would be covered with my warranty, so they paid for the tow to the dealership, the dealership had the car for a day, they counterclaimed what Chrysler stated, they claimed that it was because, the battery was just replaced so the computer needed to be re-set but, this happened on 2/12/2019 and my battery was replaced on 9/2018. There was a recall in 8/2015 for this exact same issue. I talked to the guys at my regular service station and as soon as I told them what happen they knew that I was lied to by the local Chrysler dealership.

While mobile or stationary my airbag sensor light is on. It has been diagnosed numerous times for the same reason. Due to a loose connection under my passenger seat. Chrysler has serviced it numerous times also. They have order new parts, replaced with other parts. They have tried to seat the loose connection in with a zip tie also. Issue has lasted since February of 2017

The "service air bag" light came on in my car a few months ago. I recently got it in to get it serviced at a Chrysler dealership where they ran diagnostics and said that a harness needed to be replaced in my vehicle which would cost around $2500. The person at the dealership also said that it was a potential safety issue. I, unfortunately, do not have the means to get this repair. My warranty is up as well. The car is only four years old with less than 30,000 miles on it. I did not get into an accident that would have caused the airbags to deploy or do any other significant damage to my vehicle.
