Car is not picking up speed when your in drive, jerks badly, cuts off in the middle of driving, keeps killing the battery, drives about 5 miles an hr the max. Car has been at the chrysler dealership for over 6 months and it is still not fixed. They are saying that it's still doing the same thing as when I brought it in. Nothing is being Done to resolve the issues
Vehicle died while driving 40-45 MPH in traffic would not restart until after sitting for 30 min to 2 hours. There was no warning before it died, it was running normally. After it restarted the service engine light flashed then stayed on solid for a couple days. I was told it was the crankshft position sensor so I had that replaced. The car then 3 weeks later while driving started chugging really bad. I was then told the ignition coil on #2 cylinder was misfiring. I had that replaced along with all spark plugs and car ran the same after driving 4-5 miles then died and no restart. The repair shop found the #2 ignition coil melted into the valve cover and it had also cracked the valve cover. They replaced the valve cover and the #2 ignition coil and it happened again. The car is currently at the chrysler dealership and premliminary estimate is an electrical problem sending too much voltage to that cylinder.so far there has been 2 ignition coils melted. I have been without ability to drive my car for 4 weeks now. Please put a recall on this problem !
Driving on the highway with the car on cruise at about 60mph the rpms suddenly dropped to zero and the car decelerated to a stop. When I restarted I went about a quarter of a mile before it turn off again. Then on attempting to turn over again it would not start. After cooling down (in the turn lane of a busy highway) for about six minutes it finally started again and I was able to pull to a parking lot.
This is my second compliant, though I should've been complaining since buying this vehicle in june 2016. My car wouldn't start and the engine would stall, no battery issue. All of a sudden a month later it started. I took it to my mechanic he said the engine light said a catalytic converter...but the catalytic converter does not need replaced. I have have my serpentine belt replaced 7 times in the last 3 years. I can hear my engine shifting roughly. In the month I bought the vehicle, I took it to the dealership to see what was wrong and why my RPM was going up when parked and the engine would stall. They told me if I didn't use the different fuel (which I only did twice) that it would stop. I was stuck with the car, and still am. My 'gas cap' light has been going on and off for years. I had my fuel system checked and a valve was replaced, sensors have been replaced. My engine now sounds worse than ever with knocking, whirring and shakes almost always. I'm told there is an electrical issue and/or the engine tensioner but no one can truly pinpoint the issue....it's extremely frustrating. Please recall this lemon. I have told everyone possible to never buy this brand of vehicle. This purchase was the worst mistake of my life.
I doing 70mph on the fwy and the car just lost power. I took it to a shop and they said it was the fuel pump. I had it replaced. 1 week later I tried to start the car and it would not start. I called aaa and when they came the car started. The same day I was on the fwy and the engine shut down again. I was terrified as a big rig was right behind me. I called the mechanic and had the car towed to his shop. He tested it and said the fuel pump must be bad. We replaced it again. The car seemed to run fine. Please note I only drive 5 to 10 miles a day. I was on the fwy again this week and the engine quit again. I went online to see if I was the only one having this kind of problem and found dozens of people having the same problem. I was very disharden to learn there was no recall for this. I was almost involved in 2 serious wrecks on the fwy. I called my local chrysler dealer to be told there was nothing they can do. Please advise
All of sudden I felt a jolt in the gear shift and then I lost power steering and I couldn't step on the gas to accelerate . So I pulled over the best I could, on the highway going 55 MPH. I shut the car off and when I turned it back on after giving it a couple minutes it was turning over but not turning on. The engine was completely stalled. No warning lights or check engine lights. It was completely random. I had to call family to come pick me and my daughter up. After a few hours we came back a new tried it. It worked but after driving it an hour it did the same thing again. I checked the recalls for my car and their isn't, however when I read up on forums and my car has the same issues as the other 2013 chrysler 200s. With engine stalling and greater possibility of an engine fire. I think the make and model of the vehicle needs to be investigated. I had my toddler in the car and it was frightening. I'm diligent about keeping up maintenance on my vehicles and if any inclination and or warning I would've been at the mechanic.
It died while driving on a highway multiple times. No check engine light no warning and no control of the vehicle. Repairs sometimes right away and sometimes after an hour or more.
My car quits on me while driving on the highway. Especially while slowing down. No warning lights or signs. This is very dangerous and scary! I took it to a chrysler dealer they couldn't figure out what's wrong with it I've had this car since 2014. I always kept my car up. I don't understand what's wrong with it.
The car has a broken control valve in the fuel tank as the dealer told me and this car should also be on a recall to replace the fuel tank as it was dangerous to drive .
I have a 2013 chrysler 200 and within 1 year I had to replace the throttle body 5 times. Also to get only 16 mpg is not right on a 4 cynpynder car
Car stalling while driving called recall said that my car doesn't go but it's losted under my recall
On four separate occasions my 2013 chrysler 200 shut off on me while driving. It appeared as if the engine was not getting any gas. When I tried to start the vehicle it sounded like it wanted to start but no gas was getting to the engine. I. Had the vehicle towed to the shop put my vehicle on the computer and no issues was revealed. Each time that it shut off I had a full tank of gas to 3/4 of gas. I had to wait 45-60 minutes before the car would start again. On 3oct2019 I was driving home from work traveling 65 MPH when the vehicle shut down on me on the interstate.

Takata recall last time I was driving on the freeway going 70 miles per hour and the vehicle suddenly lost power with a semi truck right behind me and I had to swerve off of the road to avoid being hit and nearly causing an accident I do not feel safe in this vehicle and I'm in fear for my life
While idling, driving at low speeds or in park, the car randomly stalls. Also while using the remote start, after turning the car on, it stalls. I have had several things replaced on the car, but it still randomly stalls.
My chrysler 200 2013 touring stalled on me while coming to a stop at a stop sign I was stuck in a intersection for almost an hour and had to direct traffic around me so I wouldn't get hit. This is not the first time this has happened. This is the 5th time my car has stalled on me and I've only had it for 2 months, stalled twice on busy intersections I could have died. It stalled on me while I was going 55 MPH and the lanes were so tight I almost couldn't get to the side of the road without getting hit and when I finally did the lanes were so close that I couldn't park on the side of the road for safety without being terrified someone going to come down the hill and not see me and hit me. Also I was just doing a beach cruise one time and it stalled on me I had to park and wait like a hour and 30 minutes for help. Another time I was doing a right turn onto my house and the engine just shut off so I had to make a wide right turn with barely any steering power could've been a major accident. The car just loses it power and shuts off without any warning. I've gotten a diagnostics and nothing showed wrong with the car, but there is something wrong. I've seen many of the same problems people are having online and the problem is not getting fixed at all. I'm seeing people replace fuel pumps, starters, batteries, alternators and no fix for the stalling just wasting money. Thousands of people online on sites are struggling with this car. People cars are stalling on them and are almost getting them killed. Chrysler is not doing anything to help these people, no recalls on the car and people are taking their cars to the dealership and wasting money because the problem still occurs even after the dealership. Really sad there needs to be something done with these cars my life is in danger and I'm only 19 years. The chrysler 200 needs to be recalled very dangerous car
Torque converter stopped working properly causing the car to stall while at slow speeds and breaking. This could be in urban and rural settings. Any example of slowing down, stopping, yielding, etc. Upon diagnostics it was found the torque converter needed to be replaced, as well as a pump (which one was not specified by the service e team) starting in early to mid october 2018

Ever since I purchased this vehicle in july, 2017, the check engine light keeps coming on with the message "gascap" showing on the odometer. I have taken it to be checked numerous times, and no one can figure out what the problem is. I've also replaced the gascap three times. I don't see where the vehicle was brought in in 2013 on the car fax report for fuel tank problem recall. Can you please help me? I never received a recall notice for this since I just bought the car in 2017.

My vehicle will cut off/stall while driving, losing speed control. This has happened more than I can count. On residential street, main highways, and freeways while doing speeds up to 70mph. If I am able to pull over to safety I would attempt to start the vehicle and it would crank but wouldn't turn over. After 2hrs the vehicle would start. I've taken it into several dealerships to be diagnosed and they wouldn't be able to duplicate the issue. The dealership hooked up a tracker and said it was one thing and fixed it and the problem is still happening. First incident was mothers day may 2017
Car acts as if it does want to accelerate. Makes a thumping jerking motion will driving. It'seems most noticeable while interstate driving hard hesitation trying time accelerate. Since purchased in september 2012 always drives sluggish on city highway; thumping was noticeable-chased it up to learning a new vehicle. Thumbing getting harder and frequent....like fast "thump jerk, thumb jerking, thump jerk"-. I always have plenty of gas. It happens with 87 or 89 octane.
