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.

Vehcile has several error lights that come and go. I cannot get chrysler dealers in brevard, florida to do warranty work. Everyone is in danger as the car is no longer safe. I have begged for tow ins, rentals and warranty diagnoses. I have begged for chrysler to send a trained rep from out of town to investigate. This has gone on for years, now the below dealerships owns both the dealers in my region and refuse to do work to diagnoe per warranty at either. I had a free oil change package from chrysler from a previous service related complaint. The dealer scheduled an appointment, I gave them all my info. I also ordered an expensive part to have installed, which is nonreturnable. I paid for and picked up part. Checked my car in. Then ross and craig, also ed o'donnell I was told were all texted by ross and upon checking in vehicle was told "sorry we will not service your vehicle or install your part. This has been an ongoing issue and I was also told by ed o'donnell on a previous complaint that I was welcomed to return. Did I mention the package expired shortly there after. Also shortly there after leaving the work they did previously, the symptoms now re present themselves. Ironically. Also, it was admitted by phone that they had backmoffice discussions with another dealer in the area gator chrysler. I am now stuck with a part they will not install or refund. They will not change my oil or rotate tires. They will not fessmup to the vandalism of my vehicle that occurred on their lot in 2018. They have destroyed my car and now all kinds of engine lights come on to discredit me.

Vehicle shifts to neutral while driving and you have to pull over and shift it into park to start going again. Happens randomly, sometimes the dash will say awd system needs servic. Weve taken it into the shop multiple times with no resolution. Concerned about divers safety! We bought this car used last year (2018) and have started having trouble about 2 weeks later. Pretty sure the previous owners traded it in for this reason.
On saturday 29/9/2019 I was getting ready to go to work from fremont, ca to san jose, ca and my car wouldn't start. I had to press the push start several times to get it to start,. Once it did start when I turned on the defroster it started shaking and turned off. I had to let it idle more than 15 minutes before it warmed up. I made it around the block about a quarter mile before I came to a stop sign and the car shut off. I managed to turn it back on and pull over. It continued to stall until I got back home. Since then it's been shaking when on idle and it jerks between gears. While on the 880 freeway the car will decelerate during peak traffic hours causing me to have to pull over to the slow lanes to avoid getting rear ended. I'm taking to the dealership for diagnostics.
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
The car stalls on my wife every day. She sitting at light or sitting in traffic. You can be driving on the freeway and without warning it cuts off. I am now the only chrysler owner that is having this issue. This is going to cause a really bad accident, or maybe someone dieing dealing with this issue. I have been calling so see if there is a recall. I saw something on google and said there is a recall but when I call the dealer ship they say there is no recall. What is it going to take for us to get a recall on the 2015 chrysler 200's engine stalling problem. This started happen back in october 2016.
The car has shuts off while driving. I bought the car used last year in march 2018. It had issues w/jerking between gears and "hopping", but several months ago, just shut off while driving 75 MPH on a highway (twice in 15 mins). Dealership attempted to fix. But, its back to same problem. It shut off tuesday while out of town at a hotel while pulling out onto a 5 lane road. Supposedly fixed, and then shut off on interstate 695 around baltimore last night while two lanes of traffic over. Shutting off with -0- warning while traveling on busy interstates is extremely dangerous and possible life threatening. Per research, this seems to be a major issue for this car, not sure why the federal safety agency has not recalled it yet.
The car dies in the middle of the road while driving. The engine stops, all the lights on the dash go out and there is no power steering or brakes. After about 5 minutes the car was able to start again.
Vehicle shut down at random after 1 month of driving when purchased april 2017 and has been stalling and randomly shutting down since. There has been two to three maintenance checks at two auto services including chysler. This problem has not ben fixed. I was deiving everytime it shutdown and the vehicle stalls while driving and sometimes when stationary.
I have had my the car completely cut of several times without warning. Recently as I was backing out of the drive way the car turned off while in motion and all lights went out. After about 5 minutes the car was able to start and I moved it back into the driveway. It is like it lost all power because the clock was no longer set to the correct time. That was on monday 1/28/2019. Today as approaching a stop sign the same thing happened again. Without warning and no lights on the dash board. I have noticed that other cars within the same year have been recalled for similar issues but I have not received any notification. I would like my car looked at free of charge as this is a potentially dangerous situation. If I am in heavy traffic and the car just decides to turn off while in motion I can be seriously injured or killed. This is also not the first time I have filled this form out..
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chrysler 200. While the vehicle was stopped at a traffic light, smoke appeared from the front of the vehicle and both wheel wells. The vehicle was pulled into a parking lot. The contact raised the hood and flames were present. The contact was able to extinguish the fire with a fire extinguisher. There was no warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was towed to tate dodge chrysler jeep (located at 7139 ritchie hwy, glen burnie, md 21061, (888) 864-6650) to be diagnosed, but the results were not yet available. The manufacturer was contacted and provided case number: 57915072. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
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.

On december 8th, the vehicle had turned off on me while in motion. It gave me a slight chance to pull over. This has happened 3 times since december 8th. 2 more times before that date in 2017 (the same year I got this car) turns out there was no oil left in my car, even those my dash board said there was 34% of oil left. I took the car to my mechanic to figure out why the oil was running out so fast. Whether there was a leak or something. Turns out the piston rings in the car are bad, to fix this he said the engine would have to be taken part fully and fixed which could also show more underlying issues. (if any)
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
Leaving for work this morning and vehicle chute off as making a right turn. Upon arriving to work the engine shut in the middle of an intersection. Sounded like a weak turn over but battery is fine and alternator is ok as well and this poses a safety issue this has happened before.
While in motion the vehicle will shut down - steering wheel locks, brakes dont brake, no sensor lights. Vehicle starts after 30+ mins but no mechanic can locate the problem due to no sensor lights. This is a major health issue when the vehicle stalls in high traffic areas and can't be moved. At this time, it has happened on 3 occassions within a two week span.
Car just shuts off while driving . Stopped at a red light waiting to turn and when it turned green the engine began to stall. Wasn't expected and almost caused me to get into an accident- I was on a city street . I had to put my car park and restart it a few times . I took my car to chrysler this morning and they said there is no recall and maybe it's my oil life but I just got a oil change a few days ago . I feel very unsafe driving this car on the road
Had a constant leak of oil. Took it in to the dealer and it was the oil cooler gasket housing that had a leak due to a crack or defective gasket housing. The oil cooler had to be replace. I have heard that this is a common problem with the year and engine model by other mechanics. Had to replace the oil cooler.
A couple of weeks ago my temperature gauge was going up oddly fast and then I would get to alerts simultaneously 'engine temperature hot' and 'service elec. Throttle control' I turn off the car for a few minutes and the gauge would go down. I'm not sure how concerned I should be or if this is a common error.
Vehicle has around 35,000 miles on it. I have noticed since about 20,000 miles that the car has been jerking. This happens both with slow acceleration and slowing down to stop. If I am approaching a red light or stop sign and I start to slow to stop, the car will jerk to the point that it feels like it will stall. When easing off of the brake after a stop sign or red light, the car jerks to the point that if I was close enough to the car in front of me, I would most likely hit them. On one occasion I was driving through a school zone going about 10 MPH, the RPM needle was past 4 and the car was making a loud sound. I tried to go slower but the car jerked and stalled. Another issue is when trying to merge onto an interstate, the car doesn't seem to want to speed up. It will be stuck around 50-55 and I really have to hit the gas to get it to speed up. Within the last month, my car has stalled twice. Once when backing out of my drive way and once while pulling in. I have taken it to the dealership relating the a transmission error I got as well as a coolant temp. Sensor and mentioned the issues with the jerking and stalling but the dealership has not been able to recreate or get a code. This is starting to happen more frequently and is a bit alarming as I never know when it is going to start giving issues.
