Tl* the contact's niece owns a 2015 chrysler 200. While driving, the check engine warning indicator illuminated and the gear shifter failed to move. As a result, the vehicle was stuck in the middle of the road. The driver had to move the shifter back and forth until she was able to shift into drive. Once the vehicle was parked at home, the gear shifter failed and could not shift out of gear. The contact diagnosed the vehicle and located that the speed range sensor failed. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the federal safety agency. The failure mileage was unknown.
2015 chrysler 200s transmission failures. Numerous times the gear would slip from drive to neutral while at stoplights. The dashboard would instruct me to shift into park the choose desired gear. That's if I'm lucky and the shift knob doesn't lock, preventing me from shifting into park or any other. Numerous times it has disengaged from drive to neutral while driving on the highway at speeds ranging from 55 MPH to 70 MPH. Having find a way to the shoulder with no power while activating the hazard lights has proven quite disturbing to maneuver through traffic. Several times it has slipped out of drive while going through intersections leaving me disabled in the middle of busy roads at the mercy of oncoming traffic, hoping they brake in time. It has nearly been the cause of several wrecks having loss of power, steering wheel becomes hard to turn and I've nowhere to turn off of road for lack of shoulder or curbs creating obstacles. Regardless of where it occurs , if the shift knob is locked, the car is not budging. It is locked in the transmission preventing any way of pushing it. I can't drive my son anywhere for fear it could result in something I'd rather not think of.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chrysler 200. While attempting to accelerate from a stop, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to move.

The car has a several second hesitation when placing your foot on the gas when starting from either a stopped position or a slowed position. The car has stalled on several occasions when going from reverse to drive, when slowly backing up it looses power and stalls as I put my foot on the brake to change from reverse to drive. The emergency brake has come on while slowing down coming down an incline causing a car behind me to have to swerve from hitting me my vehicle was going approximately 25 miles an hour at the time. All of these have been reported to chrysler and motorworld where I have been told there is nothing that can be done.

Randomly my transmission service notification and check engine light will come on. Most times it is while driving but sometimes it happens while in parked. While driving, I have to pull over and cut off the car for a few seconds to get the transmission service notification to go away but the check engine light stays on and goes away when the car hasn't been drove for hours. It used to happen once every time I traveled to another city but now it happens when I drive longer than 15 minutes.
Vehicle was running and it switches gears while in drive, a few weeks later a service shifter and service trans message pops up. Car gets stuck in park, have to use manual over ride to tow it. Get told it is an electrical issue and not a transmission issue to replace transmission shifter module.

On june 19 at approximately 9:15am, I was driving home from work to take my son to summer camp. I was about 5 minutes from my job. I had just crossed a bridge. My car hit a guardrail and I spun into the middle of the lane. I was not distracted or on my phone. I take that same road everyday and never had an issue. When I got out of the car, I noticed that the axle and wheel had come completely off. I was told by the witnesses and the tow truck driver that the cv axle had broke off which caused me to hit the guardrail. I am a safe driver and this was my first accident. I purchased the car in january of this year from carvana and it was delivered to me on february 2nd. The car was serviced in january according to the paperwork that I found in the glove compartment. Had I been on the highway, this could have been a more serious issue. I was not speeding. There was a car in front of me that was merging off onto the off ramp so I had actually slowed down. That axle should not have come off that easily. Something needs to be done about this.
Vehicle suspension seems to have gone bad. 2015 sedan now sounds like an older car when riding over rough spots in pavement. Also, awd not available light first flashed on when taking a left turn on rainy day. It was followed by service awd indicator light coming on. At first these indicator lights would come on intermittently, but now come on each time engine is started and the service awd light now stays on until the engine is shut off.
Vehicle shuts off randomly while driving and sending a message to put in park and restart vehicle. Several message lights come on that indicate there is an issue with the electrical components. Also, the service airbag message comes on every few seconds and airbag light stays on.
South shore dealer in inwood ny performed a recall s55 but problem still exists car drops into neutral while driving, wanted a second opinion at garden city dealer they wouldnt even look at it to do a diagnosis to see if recall was actually done. All I want is the recall done and done properly

2015 chrysler 200 limited when accelerating from park the car is reving to 3rd and 4th but going slowly getting stuck between those two gears then jerking and giving dragging affect after. While on the highway or street car drags after stopping and then accelerating. Var feels as if it is fishtailing and the wheels are getting stuck for a mibute before it jerks back into place. Air bag sensor goes on and off from time to time. When it comes on it will sometimes stay on for days sometimes weeks at a time. Oil changes have been done regularly. Juat started happening on 6/19/2019. Car seems to pull and vibrate even harder when the A/C unit is on. Car also has a hard vibrating noise under hood. Miles:93,800 transmission is under warranty until 100,000 miles no check engine light has came on as of yet.
When coming to a stop or accelerating from a complete stop either turning or straight, the engine stalls without warning & there is no power steering or momentum to safely pull over. I have been stuck with hazards on at neighborhood stop signs, in stopped traffic after the light turns green, freeway on ramps, in the center of small & large intersections blocking traffic, on railroad tracks, & more. It can take up to 3 tries for the engine to restart. Obviously this is extremely unsafe, & I do not believe that I should be stuck in an intersection because a newer car with such low miles dies every day, often several times a day. In addition, the transmission is very jerky & the engine does not run smoothly once it restarts. That also happens occasionally upon the first start of the day. I do not understand why my vehicle was not included in the recall for this exact issue. I do have videos of this, but can not upload them. The date below is the date of one of the videos, this problem occurs daily & has been for several weeks. After purchasing the car, there were a few incidents months apart, then it became more frequent, & for the last several weeks it is a daily occurrence.
Trouble began in may 2019. 'service transmission' comes up on display, check engine light illuminates, and the car does not shift correctly. It gets stuck into a higher gear, making it difficult to drive from a complete stop. Sometimes turning the car off/on will clear the message and shift properly (albeit the check engine light is still on), and sometimes it takes a few hours before it will go away. Eventually both the message and the check engine light will go away but eventually (sometimes minutes, hours, or after a few days) the trouble will persist. I took it into a chrysler dealership on 6/15/19 and they said the battery failed 2 of 3 times and replaced the battery and reprogrammed the TCM. Total cost $312. This fix lasted three days. Scheduled another appt at i10 dodge in indio, ca. For 8am. The message and cel will occur randomly. Sometimes after immediately turning the car on, but most often while driving normally on city streets or the freeway. It doesn't matter whether I'm in drive mode or sport mode. The fact that the gears do not shift properly and get 'stuck' into a higher gear can be unsafe.
Automatic transmission often slips/shutters when advancing through the lower gears on an uphill climb.
Car will stall and will indicate on the dash to shift into park while the d flashs on both the dash and on the gear selector. Once the car is in park and I try to restart the car it sounds like it tries to start and times out and I have to try again.
Car loses oil even when not due for oil change not burning up just loses it cause car to stall and not start horrible engineering flaw just had a oil change last week and continues to do this
There is often a significant delay with engaging drive after reversing and coming to a full stop. There is such a delay such as the usual slight increase in acceleration expected and needed to drive forward that when drive finally kicks in it clunks and jerks until it starts moving forward. This has happened quite often, more than a dozen times. The shifting also seems jerky sometimes while in drive when shifting between the lower gears. I suspect software issues of shift points perhaps or just bad communications between the computer systems that communicate to make the shifts occur at the right times. I made an actual report to chrysler within the last year or so at the same time I reported the issue with the speed control not shutting off (which is an active recall but they say our car doesn't have the problem and is not recallable) but not sure they made note of it in my VIN file. I am going to call them again to see what the person shows in their notes...
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.
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.
Changed battery and upon restarting it my 200 was in neutral and wilk not go into any other gear. The shift knob moves but the gears dont catch. Park brake light is on and traction light I think?
