I was attempting to turn around on my street and was hit on the driver's side by an oncoming car. Immediately thereafter, I tried to pull into a nearby driveway, but the car seemed to suddenly accelerate tremendously and plowed into the back of a parked car in that driveway. I was trying to brake but had no time as the car accelerated so suddenly. It damaged my grill and the bumper of the car that was hit. It appears that other owners of the Chrysler 200C have experienced similar issues with it accelerating when the driver is trying to brake.
The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that the vehicle experienced electrical issues that caused the instrument panel to be blank intermittently, and the cruise control failed to disengage. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed, and a software update was performed on the vehicle; however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The contact referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V470000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) as a possible cause for the failure. The failure mileage was 168,000.
The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that while driving 35 MPH, the message that the transmission was too hot was displayed. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, and the contact was advised to take the vehicle to a dealer. The dealer was contacted by phone and made aware of the failure. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with transmission wiring harness and TCM failure. In addition, the contact was informed that the vehicle was repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V529000 (Power Train); in August 2018. The contact was informed that the repair was not covered under warranty. The manufacturer was contacted by phone, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 131,000.
My 2015 Chrysler 200 displayed the warning “Service Trans Stop Safely Shut Off Engine to Engage Park.” The vehicle has approximately 79,136 miles. I am concerned this is a safety-related transmission/park engagement defect because the warning indicates the vehicle may not properly engage Park. I am requesting that NHTSA document and investigate this issue and determine whether my vehicle is affected by an existing transmission-related recall or whether the affected vehicle population should be reviewed.
The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that on several occasions while driving, the vehicle unexpectedly shut off. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic on three separate occasions, and the vehicle was diagnosed. The contact was informed that the power distribution center was inoperable and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V470000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); as a possible cause for the failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 180,000.
Code C14A7 and internal binding occurred on my 2015 Chrysler 200, which shares the identical PTU architecture as the recalled 2015 Jeep Cherokee.
Electricity light came on as well as overheating light and engine light all at once also stalling
Vehicle does shift to p then desired gear. It stalls at traffic stop lights. Very dangerous. I do not know what the issue is.i got home to test the issue while in drive with brake pushed down as if I were in idle, at a stop light, and it did the same thing in the video.
My vehicle lost power while driving had my new born baby in the car with me I was told that it may be issue an electrical connection from 2 different repair shops Tuscaloosa Chrysler tried to service the car for 2 weeks and stated that it was issue with the PMC but they were unable to locate the issue why the vehicle couldn’t get power and said that they no longer make that model vehicle anymore and they weren’t able to get parts and referred me to Henry Automotive in Tuscaloosa that worked on the vehicle for almost 6 months and weren’t able to locate the problem as to why the car was unable to receive power after both repair shops although after checking past recalls for electrical issues I see that some electrical issues were resolved in the past on the vehicle however I have concerned that the issues may not have been resolved completely
The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that while reversing at an undisclosed speed, the rear-view camera displayed an intermittently distorted, darkened, or green screen. No warning lights were illuminated. The contact researched and was made aware of an unknown recall; however, the VIN was not included. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 65,250.
The vehicle has suffered a total failure of the passenger seat jumper wiring harness, which has completely deactivated the entire Supplemental Restraint System (SRS / Airbag system) and triggered the airbag warning light. This is a known manufacturing defect covered under an active Technical Service Bulletin (TSB). A certified Chrysler dealership previously performed a paid repair for this exact TSB defect, meaning the replacement safety component has failed prematurely. The vehicle is currently an active safety hazard on the road, as no airbags will deploy in an accident. Chrysler Corporate has refused to remedy this failed safety system, leaving the vehicle completely unprotected.
While driving my 2015 Chrysler 200, the vehicle randomly shifts into neutral without the driver initiating any gear change. Prior to this occurring, all dashboard warning lights illuminate simultaneously and the odometer display starts blinking so many lights — these appear to be warning signs of an electrical failure that then causes the transmission to shift into neutral while driving and sometimes even not able to shift gears. This has occurred multiple times at normal road speeds and causes sudden loss of power and vehicle control, creating a serious safety hazard. The vehicle was taken to an independent repair shop who confirmed it was an electrical issue beyond their capability. It was then taken to a Chrysler dealership who charged $250 per hour for diagnostics, kept the vehicle for a full day, and was unable to identify the cause. Their only suggestion was an aftermarket radio installed by a prior owner — however an aftermarket radio would not cause all dashboard lights to activate and the transmission to shift into neutral while driving. I contacted Chrysler corporate (Case #97099954) who confirmed no open recalls exist and refused to cover the repair stating the warranty has expired. However this is not a wear and tear issue — this is a safety defect. The sequence of all warning lights activating followed by the transmission shifting to neutral points to a failure in the vehicle electrical control system, possibly the TIPM or Transmission Control Module — both known problem areas on this model. This is a serious safety defect and I am requesting NHTSA investigate this issue on the 2015 Chrysler 200.
I was on
I took my vehicle in for service because cylinder 6 had a misfire and the dealership told me that the Catalytic Converter failed internally and stated it can happen at anytime and it sends metal into the engine causing damage.
My airbag light on the driver side is on. Isn't this a recall part
Airbags deployed 15+ seconds after impact. Passenger airbag deployed from the top of the dash and hit the windshield causing the windshield to shatter.
I honestly believe this has to do with me being discriminated by people even emergency dispatch and police from the city of Inglewood , this is not the first time my car gets tampered with, but to start I already had felt something was off with the vehicle because I was parked and it accelerated all of a sudden last night of 03/24/26 then today on 03/25/26 i was on the freeway on my way to work then I felt something wasnt how the last time I drove it then it accelerated all of sudden and some setting on my car where changed so I returned home I didn’t want to risk my life or anybody else’s so i took pictures of the miles 114199 and how the cars is in case someone tries to take it and cause and incident & tries to cause and organized crime so I can get into trouble
The contact's son owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that while his son was driving at an undisclosed speed, the transmission unexpectedly shifted to neutral (N). The message "Please Place Vehicle in Gear" was displayed. The contact's son was able to drive the vehicle after shifting to drive(D). The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, but no cause for the failure was found. The vehicle was not repaired. The mechanic related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V529000 (Power Train); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, but informed the contact that there was no recall associated with the VIN. The failure mileage was unknown.
It shuts down the engine or. Does not go in park it has something going on with electrical I can not afford it help please
The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the driver’s side headlight failed to function as intended. The message "Headlight not Working" was displayed. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic; however, no cause for the failure was found. The driver’s side headlight was replaced; however, several days later, while driving at an undisclosed speed, the passenger’s side headlight failed to function as intended. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic. However, no cause for the failure was found. On a separate occasion, while driving at an undisclosed speed, the transmission failed to shift as needed. While the shift button was moved to reverse(R), the reverse(R) light failed to illuminate, and an abnormal dinging sound was coming from the vehicle. The message "Transmission Issues" was displayed on the instrument panel. The vehicle failed to move while in reverse. The contact stated that the failure was predominant during cold weather. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed, and determined that the transmission sensor clusters had failed. The dealer reprogrammed the Powertrain Control Module and the Transmission Control Module. However, the failure persisted. The contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V529000 (POWER TRAIN); however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.
I’m not sure but it will randomly die and have to be restarted there are times it does it more than others but every time is extremely dangerous because you essentially lose control of the car until it is restarted and it shift extremely hard sometimes like it feels like the transmission is going to fall out it jerks the entire car violently and there are numerous low voltage codes as well
Airbag light is on , 2nd time my lower control arms are broken and I go through a battery every 2 years average
The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that while driving on several occasions at various speeds, the vehicle stalled. The power steering and battery warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was restarted each time, but the vehicle took a progressively longer time to restart. Eventually, the vehicle failed to restart and was towed to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed and determined that the battery needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure returned five minutes after driving off the lot. The vehicle was taken back, and it was determined that the wiring and electrical system had a communication fault, and that the vehicle needed to be taken to a dealer to be reprogrammed. The vehicle was towed to a dealer, where it was diagnosed, and it was determined that the battery cable and harness needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.
You have a recall for chryslr 200 2015 for intermittent starting and stalling caused by faulty PDC connector. NHTSA. My car is doing exactly that but its not under the recall why not? It had done this gor the last 4 months
The transmission is stuck in 3rd gear and sometimes don't move at all. It has jumped in neutral a couple of times while driving or automatically goes to paddle shifting without touching the gear control. It is basically undrivable with only 95000, or so miles.
NHTSA’s Office of Defects Investigation opened these reviews into vehicles including this one.
On July 23, 2015, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) launched Safety Recall 15V-461 to remedy security vulnerabilities in approximately 1.4 million model year (MY) 2013 through 2015 vehicles equipped with Uconnect head units (HU) 8.4A (RA3 radio) and 8.4AN (RA4 radio) manufactured by Harman International.On July 24, 2015, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened Recall Query, RQ 15-004, to investigate HU security vulnerabilities and remedy effectiveness in the recalled population and to determine whether similar units have been supplied for use in other FCA vehicles.In an August 11, 2015 letter, FCA submitted a second Part 573 safety recall report expanding the scope of the Uconnect RA4 model radio to include additional 7,810 MY 2015 Jeep Renegade vehicles manufactured from September 18, 2014 through June 25, 2015 (Recall 15V-508).Scope analysis indicated that Uconnect radios installed in FCA vehicles not included in recalls 15V-461 or 15V-508 (subject recalls) are not equipped with built-in cellular access or short range wireless communication features and, thus, do not contain the security vulnerabilities addressed by the subject recalls. SUBJECT VEHICLES: MY2014 through 2015 Dodge Durango, Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Cherokee sport utility vehicles; MY2013 through 2015 Ram 1500, 2500, 3500 and 4500/5500 pickup trucks; MY2013 through 2015 Dodge Viper vehicles; and MY2015 Chrysler 200, 300, Jeep Renegade, Dodge Charger and Challenger vehicles.According to FCA, long and short range wireless vulnerabilities identified in the recalled vehicles could allow unauthorized third-party access to, and manipulation of, networked vehicle control systems.Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities, coupled with reverse engineering of networked microprocessor control modules, could result in unauthorized manipulation of vehicle control systems. This unauthorized manipulation of vehicle controls and systems could expose the driver, vehicle occupants or other highway users to an increased risk of injury.FCA and its network provider, Sprint, conducted a nationwide campaign to block access to a radio communications port that was unintentionally left open.On July 27, 2015, short range wireless vulnerabilities were also blocked.Finally, third party security evaluation and regression testing identified vulnerabilities that were either remedied by Sprint or through updates to the FCA Uconnect software.ODI identified a total of 30 complaints or field reports on unique vehicles submitted by FCA (29) or received by NHTSA (1) alleging incidents of theft from a vehicle or anomalous performance that the owner alleged were caused by, or may have been caused by, remote hacking.Twenty-six (87%) of these reports were submitted after a magazine article was published on July 21, 2015, describing the remote hacking of an FCA vehicle by researchers who were able to affect the operation of various vehicle control systems, including the service brakes, steering, throttle and ignition.Most of the complaints involved vehicle systems that were not safety critical (e.g., complaints related to radio, navigation system, or air-conditioning control) and did not affect vehicle control.Three complaints reported engine stalls.One owner reported sudden unintended acceleration allegedly related to hacking.None of the complaints or field reports reviewed involved the steering and braking vehicle control effects demonstrated by the research hackers prior to the recall.There were no confirmed incidents of hacking in any of the records reviewed by ODI.The remedies completed by Sprint and FCA appear to have eliminated vulnerabilities that mi
