2015 Chrysler 200 acceleration complaints

Vehicle speed control. I've reported this before and chrysler insists our vehicle does not have this problem nor it is included in the recall. Problem always occurs while speed control is on and going downhill. The RPM's will increase significantly in an apparent attempt to slow down the vehicle by shifting down to way too low of a gear. Often RPM's will race near 5000+ and the scariest part is when you apply the brakes the speed control does not release. I have been the one driving when this has happened on half a dozen or more times. Recently my wife was driving alone and experienced this problem and didn't know what to do when she quickly approached a slow moving vehicle and the speed control would not release. She has bladder issues and pee'd her pants, literally. Luckily she has been in the vehicle before when this has happened and she thought quickly to move the vehicle into neutral and applied the brake which released the cruise control and allowed her to get her composure back. It was a close and scary call for her. Again, we have reported this several times and there is a recall for this exact problem and chrylser says our car does not have the problem and is not included in the recall, which is a simple software upgrade which they have and doesn't cost them much for the dealership to apply. The last time this happened was just a few weeks ago saturday late afternoon may 18, 2019.
While driving with cruise control engaged going down a steeper grade on I-81 the vehicle accelerates and will not down shift. I have to stomp the brake or cancel cruise control to get the vehicle to slow down. Cruise control would not disengage from steering column. Cruise control was set at 65 MPH and speed increased to ~75 MPH. This happens at this same point on the highway every time I go thru there. Scary!!!!
While driving with cruise control engaged going down a steep hill the vehicle accelerated and would not down shift. I had to stomp the break to get the vehicle to slow down. Cruise control would not disengage from steering column. Cruise control was set at 60 MPH and speed increased to 75 MPH.
When driving it shuts off, a very serious and dangerous problem
These past few days my car has been stalling out with no warning. All of these times I have been driving in traffic. The car stalls and message will appear to something upon put your foot on the brake and put in park. Once you do that the car will try to restart itself. My car eventually restarts but has still yet restarted on the first try. There is no check engine light on or any other warning codes( no warning codes before nor after the stalling). This is a big safety issue chrysler needs to look into and address.
Looks like when I speed up gears feels to heavy like gears not changing when is supposed to, feel like doesn't release last gear
Vehicle is reporting p0128 and p2181 error codes. While driving, vehicle gives an error message that says service electronic throttle control and sounds like it is running really loud. When I turn off the vehicle and turn it back on, the warning goes away and it sounds normal again. Also, have been driving and the car just shuts off out of no where and wont turn on for a few attempts. This has happened on the freeway. Vehicle also seems to accelerate when trying to slow down at a stop sign or light.
While driving the instrument cluster went out. Speedometer and all electronics and displays went out. I had to pull over on the highway and turn off the car and back on and the display went back on. The check engine light came on and when I took it to the dealer they said the codes that came up are inconclusive. This is the 4th time this has happened and it seems to only happen during warm or hot weather. This is very concerning while driving. Searching various forms, it seems this is an issue other chrysler drivers have experienced.
Since I have had my car the service airbag system has came on several times I got it fixed once before, I have had to replace the throttle control body, and thermostat, also it's saying d1-d9 when I drive. It's so many problems and I've only had the car two years
The car engine keeps on stalling while it is in motion. The car suddenly stops while I am driving it. There are no warning lights, visual cues or sounds to indicate any problem. As a result, the car's power steering becomes inoperable. The speed of the car varies at the time of each incident. Each time this incident has happened, the car has become disabled in the middle of the street. There have been 5 incidents this past month. So far, the car has been able to restart after putting the car in park and after a couple of attempts of pushing the start button along with stepping on the brakes. It usually takes a couple of minutes. During that time, my car is in the middle of the street and in traffic. I have had my children in the car during some of these incidents. It is an extreme safety risk.
Takata recall I have had my chrysler 2015 200 for 3 years and since I've had my car it has always had an issue with accelerating on its on. It accelerates when you tap the breaks and it will accelerate on its on taking it off cruise control as well. So last week my car was being driven on the highway and the car was put on cruise control going about 60-65 MPH then once the brake was tapped to slow down the car began to lock up and accelerate up to 90 MPH. Then after the car picked up speed the whole car locked up steering wheel would not turn or anything and the car ended up hitting a wall. The state of what cause the issue is unknown, however I think this issue should be taken further for an investigation.
I've had problems with the air conditioning it won't turn on after the heater is on the next day it won't turn on and when the car needs a oil change the engine light will turn on and then the car start acting funny it will just turn off in the st and it won't turn back on and I can't take it off parking to make the car and then when it does turn on the speed won't work it won't go over 15 MPH but I can hear the engine and the meters go up.
Car stalls into neutral or just dies when in motion, the airbags do not work, the middle console went out in 2016, the car tire pressure sensor stopped working in 2016, the car randomly revs into a higher gear
Takata recall.. I went to galena twice for the same problem. Each time they've told me they fixed the problem. My service park brake comes on and so does the service transmission, it comes on when I start the car and doesn't allow me to shift gears. This is the second time I've had to deal with this problem. I am borderline wanting to go forth with a lawsuit because I fear my life is in danger when I drive this car. But I have no choice. I have three jobs and I'm a full time student so I need transportation that's reliable and I feel like with this car it's [xxx] far from it.

Vehicle is trying to stall out while driving and in sitting position.always happens right after I re-fuel. It starts jerking, sometimes it is a slight jerk but today it jerked very hard that it really scared me. Also when starting the vehicle it struggles to start up. It will continue to not drive right for a little bit of time and then it goes back to driving fine until I re-fuel again. It started about a month ago and has never stopped since then. I have looked up recalls for this issue and it shows I don't have one. This really needs to be checked out and become a recall
My car is sometimes trying to stall out on the highway and rural roads, it looses a good bit of its power. It also makes jerking movements when my foot is steady holding the gas at an even level. Kinda like it would if you were tapping the gas and letting off the gas very quickly.
Since we bought the car new in 07/14 we have been problems with the airbags. We have taken it the dealership, the have said theirs nothing they can do about it....due to not a recall on this model. We still drive with the airbag needs to serviced. We like this to be taken care of, as well all the transmission problems. Vehicle has stalled on us while driving on the highway couple of times...intermittent staggers while driving.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chrysler 200. While driving approximately 60 MPH, the temperature gauge increased and the check engine indicator illuminated and remained lit. Also, the "throttle body electronic module service required" indicator flashed on and off. The failure recurred. The contact also stated that the vehicle sometimes hesitated to accelerate without warning. The vehicle was taken to chrysler jeep dodge city of mckinney (972‑569‑9650, located at 700 s central expy, mckinney, tx 75070) and was kept for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to the federal safety agency. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 56,000.
After vehicle has been driven for a while, the check engine light, traction control, ABS and airbag light comes on and the vehicle loses driving function momentarily and the gas pedal does not move the car for a few seconds. Then I have to press the gas pedal down heavily to get the car to travel at a low speed. The transmission doesn't shift properly and this normally last for a while then stops. A code reader says 'high speed can communication bus' I took it to the dealership and they said that they could not simulate the issue so they couldn't do anything. It normally happens when it is very cold or below freezing outside. Also when it is a hot day the vehicle unlocks it's own doors, starts itself, pops the trunk on it's own when I am nowhere around and the key fob is nowhere near which is dangerous and can cause my car or my belongings to be stolen.
My car sometimes revs while going 10 and under, without me pushing the gas. And when I changed gears it slips and jumps
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chrysler 200. The contact stated that the vehicle hesitated at any rate of speed and the oil was low. There was no oil leak present. David dodge chrysler jeep (1801 us-202, glen mills, pa 19342, (610) 358-5300) was contacted the vehicle was not repaired; however, the dealer mentioned that they serviced the vehicle under a warranty. Specific diagnostic information was not disclosed. In addition, the rear shocks were replaced twice. The vehicle was not included in the federal safety agency campaign number: 14v392000 (suspension), although the vehicle exhibited the same symptoms listed in the recall campaign. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The failure mileage was not available. *tt consumer stated oil was low, vehicle stalled and dealer did something to the module power train. Also, two front end alignments and had to replace 6 tires as well as airbag light stays on. Jumper harnest under the seat needs to be replaced.
Vehicle abruptly stalls and will not shift while driving. The speed of the vehicle will increase while on cruise control.
On multiple occasions I have been driving down the road and my car shifts very hard and has made grinding noises. Not only that but ever since I have bought it, it shifts like a rubber band being pulled back and makes you lunge forward. I believe I have taken it in 3 times now and with no resolution. The first time I took it in they had a service rep ride with me to see what I was feeling. He personally said that it wasn't shifting correctly and so they kept it. When I picked it up they informed me they did not find anything wrong with it but re-programmed it. As I left the dealership it shifted worse than before. I then called and complained and they said it was normal, on my way back home it was consistently shifting rough. I finally just pulled over shut the car off and started it up again. After doing so it shifted smoother but worse than it did before. On a separate occasion I was driving down the highway at a speed of 70 MPH set on cruise when I tried to disengage the cruise control function and it would not disengage! I was going from a highway to a speed limit change and could not get it. Luckily I have read about this happening and shifted it into neutral and I was able to disengage it after that.
When accelerating car shudders/ when brakes are applied at speeds of 20+ car shakes. Transmission races itself going up and down hill having trouble switching gears in an automatic transmission. Trouble shifting gears. Car has shut off while driving /switched to neutral by itself.
I replaced the transmission axle harness back iin 2016 when I got the car. But not all of a sudden the ABS sensor keeps going out and it comes on and off after replacing it. I replaced it the car was fine then boom its back on. The car speeds up when I just be going 10 miles an hour and I have to slam on my brakes to keep it from going out of control. I almost had two accidents with this issue. And the dealership keeps telling me that recall was fixed but I dont believe it was. My car keeps trying to speed up with me just even pulling off from a parking spot. Its a chrysler 200 s 2015 . I think this car is horrible and I am stuck with this lemon
Takata recall, my chrysler 200 2015 is having issues where it seems like it's stuck in neutral and doesn't want to accelerate. My car started rumbling pretty intensely I don't even have 80,000 miles on my car and it says my VIN number doesn't match any recalls but everything I've looked up it sounds the same recall the other chrysler 200 2015 cars had as well. How do I go about getting this fixed?? I was on the freeway and it happened randomly when I went to switch lanes.
My air bag light would come on and go off for a while. But now it shows up on my ftc code reader regularly. When I have it checked it say replace air bag clock spring. My transmission is jerking around and makes a noise when I start to put it in gear. Like a clanking sound
When driving the car jerks between speeds, especially from 3rd speed to 4 speed its a hard/rough shift. Even when stopping the car is still going and jerking. Very unsafe! Especially in stop and go traffic, vehicle has a very bad delay when trying o merge into traffic.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chrysler 200. While driving various speeds, the vehicle accelerated independently. The contact stated that the cruise control had not been engaged at the time. A local dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was notified. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure was intermittent. The approximate failure mileage was 17,000. *tt *jb
