The horn will honk sporadically and will not start at times then wipers will malfunction. Had tipm looked at was told it is normal for this to go out, bad design.

Windshield wiper failure by model year
What owners say
Several times now while a heavy down pour is going on my wipers have either been choppy or completely stopped. This is an absolute problem and the motor has been tested as well as fuse. The next component would be the computer and I can not nor will I spend more money on this car. This is a safety issue I have seen in multiple chrysler 200 forums online.

Several issues. Horn blows randomly. Wipers come on for no reason. Engine stalls driving at speeds 60 MPH. May start after several tries. May not start until several tries. Horn will also blow with engine off and monkeys in ignition.
The turn signal started working on its own and the wipers started working on there own then they just quit working.
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 chrysler 200. When the vehicle was started, the electrical system failed to operate, as needed. The contact stated that the windshield wipers began operating on their own, the power doors would lock and unlock on their own, and all the warning indicators illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact drove the vehicle to landmark chrysler dodge jeep ram of atlanta (5745 peachtree industrial blvd, chamblee, ga 30341, (678) 825-6582) where it was diagnosed that the totally integrated power module needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 79,000.
Takata recall the wiper connector under the hood broke. I have had the car for 5 years brand new and ever other year something is breaking on this car. Why? My wiper sprayer does not work. I am disappointed by the money I have spent in paying the car note and replacing parts. In june of 2018 I had to replace the alternator...I work so hard to purchase a car that I can depend on for transportation for me and my children's safety, did I pick the wrong company for that. Thanks [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
The windshield wipers randomly cut on while driving on days that there is no rain or water present. The air conditioner also changes it settings when it is not on "auto" and my cruise control will only work about 30% of the time. It will not set to the speed I have selected.
Wipers won't shut off, electrical failure
Faulty tipm caused the windshield wipers to fail. Operating the vehicle is extremely dangerous in inclement weather due to this.
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 chrysler 200. The contact stated that the windshield wipers were no longer functional and only the driver side of the vehicle emitted heat. The failure occurred without warning. The dealer diagnosed that the integrated fuse system malfunctioned and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.
We were in an accident my son and husband were in the front seat and the both had injuries. My son had neck injury and I feel that it is due to the headrests in the vehicle. I would just like for this to be looked into. We were at a stop when the vehicle was rear ended by 2 vehicles. The headrest literally blew open. Prior to this the wipers would turn on, anytime we used the signal light.
