6 Electronic Stability Control problem of the 2016 Chrysler 200

Failure Date: 08/15/2020

I purchased this car new off the dealership showroom in summer of 2017. A couple days after having it, I was driving down a street in my hometown and the vehicle just shut completely off. I was in the middle of traffic and began to panic because I didn't want to get into an accident. I took the car to the dealership and they �fixed� the issue. Shortly after, while at a stop light, the car shut off again in traffic and took a while to restart. Everything in the vehicle turns off. I again took it to the dealership and they �fixed� the issue. Here we are just last week, 08/15/2020 and I'm driving on a major thru way and the vehicle cuts off again. There have never been any warning signs, lights on the dashboard/ reason for me to believe something was wrong. My vehicle barely has 50k miles. After looking up my VIN to see if there had been a recall (there isn�t), I did notice that the year prior (2015) same make and model have a recall for the same electrical issue I've been complaining about. This matter is serious as the cars turns off unexpectedly and could cause a terrible accident. I will upload my paper work from the dealership the first 2x. I have not driven the vehicle since 8/15/20 as I'm afraid that someone will get hurt. I've called to report the issue at the 888 number listed but the phone just hangs up. At the time of purchase I lived in niagara falls, NY and purchased the vehicle from joe cecconi's Chrysler complex. I currently live in charlotte, nc where the most recent incident occurred.

15 Electronic Stability Control problem of the 2015 Chrysler 200

Failure Date: 05/05/2020

May 5, 2020. I went to start my car & it says the engine is too hot to start. Strange. The next day it says the same thing so I call a tow truck to take it to pep boys. The car was stuck in neutral and the emergency brake wouldn't release so they were unable to tow it. They give me a jump start & I take it to pep boys. They test the battery & showed it was just fine. I seemed to have no problems soon after leaving. Later that night, I went out to check on it just to make sure it was working. Once again it wouldn't start. Then I noticed the dashboard menu had a black screen & wouldn't turn on. I kept trying to turn the car off & give it a few minutes before turning it back on. Then the air conditioner stopped working correctly once I turned it on. The temperature inside the car was 100 degrees I thought this was causing a problem for the engine so I tried to turn it off. It kept blowing onto the windshield & wouldn't shut off until I turned the car off. I tried to start the car & the battery wouldn't crank. It just was stuck on run without the engine running. So I was officially stranded at home, but I'm glad it happened at home instead of somewhere else. I don't have aaa so I wasn't sure how I would get my car back to the dealership which is an hour from me. Thankfully a relative came through & helped. But when I initially went to pick up the car on 5/13, once again it didn't start. So they kept it for a few more days to see what was the problem. It was an electrical problem like I thought. I now have the car today & so far all is good. However I am upset no one told me this car had 8 recalls. Before selling it to me & I'm a new driver! this has been a major inconvenience & I fear this will happen again. I'd like to have it recalled & replace this with a new vehicle completely. I can't attach these files but I have videos as evidence I will gladly email if needed.

16 Electronic Stability Control problem of the 2016 Chrysler 200

Failure Date: 05/02/2020

As I drove the vehicle off the lot located in modesto, CA I drove to my home address which is located in antioch, CA. On my way home the car started jerking when I notified the dealership they said they will fix it and to drop it back off. They had the vehicle for 7 days and did not fix a thing because the vehicle cuts off any power and gas control on the freeway.

17 Electronic Stability Control problem of the 2015 Chrysler 200

Failure Date: 04/15/2020

On multiple occasions since I purchased my vehicle in 1/2018 I've experienced issues. When putting the vehicle in drive it wants to stall as soon as I press the gas and putters along until it gets enough energy and when trying to gain speed the vehicle doesn't have enough juice to go such as getting on the highway, I normally have to drive in the medium to get enough speed to move into the traffic otherwise I'm bound to get rear ended. The slightest bump in the road causes my airbag light and notification to come on. While pulling away from stop signs and traffic lights the vehicle turns off and takes about 5-10 minutes to start back up , unable to move steering wheel to move vehicle out of traffic. Lights on the inside ( dash, radio) dim extremely low during daylight unable to see anything. Ive left my vehicle with a Chrysler dealership for 2 weeks to get a diagnostic and they couldn't replicate or find anything wrong and still charged me. When the problems persisted and were more noticeable and more often they charged me again with no results. Now the check engine light is on and vehicle just staggers instead of gaining speed.

18 Electronic Stability Control problem of the 2013 Chrysler 200

Failure Date: 03/23/2020

My Chrysler 200 has been turning off out of no where. No check engine light or anything turns on. My cars horn goes off randomly in the middle of driving and when put into park. I had 3 recalls and recently went to get them fixed thinking it would help , since one of the recalls was reprogramming the main module of the car. Still to this day it turns off on me. Just the other day I was in town making a turn and it stopped before I was able to complete the turn. It's also turned off on me many times when I'm driving in one direction. After it turns off I am able to re start it, and other times I have to wait several minutes before I'm able to get it turned back on.

20 Electronic Stability Control problem of the 2014 Chrysler 200

Failure Date: 03/14/2020

Car will just randomly shut off while the car is cruising, accelerating, or decelerating. There are no warning lights, sounds, or visual cues to indicate any sort of problem. In addition to the engine, the power steering and brake assist will also shut down. After the stall: it doesn't trigger any error codes for an obd-ii reader, meaning technicians wont be able to diagnose the problem. Will do this at all speeds, even on the high way, or places that may not have a place to pull off. This is extremely unsafe and extremely dangerous.

21 Electronic Stability Control problem of the 2015 Chrysler 200

Failure Date: 02/29/2020

As I am driving down the road the vehicle will completely stall out. The first time it just seemed to have had a dead battery. I got a jump it was fine. After that the transmission died so I had to stop the car turn it back on and my check engine light remained on but it drove fine. Three days later, it dies again while driving. Both times it had died while being driven electronically were on 55mph roads. The time my transmission died it was right down the road from my house so I wasn't going too fast.

22 Electronic Stability Control problem of the 2013 Chrysler 200

Failure Date: 02/27/2020

At random my cars dies/stalls. I could be at a stop sign and the engine lose power shakes then dies. I could be driving in town cruising down main street at 25mph and my car engine will lose power shake then die while I'm still driving in motion. I could be driving on the free way with speeds at 70 mph and my car will just die, foot goes all the way in peddle when dead. You could feel no power in the car and it will roll out. Once the car is dead the power steering is out. It's very unsafe. I've been broken down for hours on the side of the road or minutes. I've been broken down in all 3 situations multiple times as stated above. The car shows no warning when it is going to die, no engine lights either, happens at random. Very unreliable and it tragic that I have to keep paying for a vehicle that does not perform like it should, I'm paying for a broken car. Dealership wants no part of it. I've got a recall letter, took it in and nothing was fix. They say it was the pcm but little did they know it was a brand new on. Already was updated. I feel nothing was dont to take care of the problem since the dealership had about 10 other people with recall letter. I'd really appreciate the help if any can be assisted.
