We are a repair shop reporting this issue.the referenced vehicle arrived with a complaint of the airbag light on.tech found trouble code B0020-13(left side seat deployment squib 1- circuit open)stored in airbag module.tech also found a tsb (see photos)requiring replacement of both front seat complete airbag wiring harnesses with an updated version.the existing condition can cause the side curtain airbags to not deploy in event of a crash.Chrysler has not issued a recall or offered any warranty extension on this known problem that effects 201- 2017 Jeep Cherokee and 2015- 2017 Chrysler 200S.it is our feeling that this known condition presents a serious safety concern to owners of the affected vehicles, and is an extremely costly repair for a safety concern that should not fall on the shoulder of the consumer.

A/C died in 2018; I decided to wait to repair because I thought the vehicle needed freon. After taking the vehicle to the dealership the compressor needs to be replaced. The extended warranty expired. Since the car is computerized I have to pay for updates and electrical issues. Now the seat belt light is on due to two bad harness under the seat. An update was allegedly repaired of the car jumping, the car stills jumps. The vehicle is slowly deteriorating at my expense. Chrysler has stated they will not help me. This vehicle needs to be recalled immediately.

The air compressor and seat belt harness has gone bad and the vehicle is less than 5 years old. The A/C died in 2018; I decided to wait until 2019 to replace what I thought was the freon.

"takata recall". my airbag light sensor on the dash of my vehicle lit up along with the seatbelt light while I was driving by myself with the seatbelt on correctly and nothing sitting in any of the passenger seats. The dash displays a message of "service airbag system". when coming to a stop, the dash displays"driver seatbelt unbuckled" while my seatbelt is buckled. I have checked the vehicle for recalls and none are currently listed with the NHTSA or the dealership under my particular VIN. I have had the vehicle diagnosed at a Chrysler dealership/service center and was notified that the orc ("occupant restraint controller") was non responsive. They (Chrysler service center employee) informed me that I was responsible for the care and maintenance of the safety device that is defective in my vehicle. While sitting in park with the vehicle motor running in a parking lot there were three loud pops in my vehicle and a smelly smoky substance throughout the vehicle. I did not see any air bags visibly deploy.

First day I purchased this vehicle they had to clean a spot out on the passenger side. About 3 months later I took it for an oil change and jerking to landers Dodge off colonel glenn road.they told me it was doing that because it was new and the mobile hadn't been broke in. Never buying a new vehicle before I believe this man.. sometimes when I first starts off it jerk, still does it today. They said my car wasn't a recall I dont9know why not it does what the other jerk all the time. Don't think this is fair paying for a defect!!!! when Chrysler is aware!!! it jerks when I first start off and pulling steep hills.first time I drove it to las vegas, Nevada

The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. While driving at an unknown speed, the air bag warning indicator illuminated continuously and the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who stated that the passenger side air bag may deploy at any time and the power connector needed to be repaired. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign numbers: 16V114000 (air bags) and 15V470000 (electrical system). The approximate failure mileage was 44,000. The consumer stated the vehicle was repaired at the cost of $1,200 and a week later another $400 to fix the vehicle again.

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.

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.
