2013 CHRYSLER 200 Engine Problems

THE ALTERNATOR KEEPS GOING OUT ON MY CAR. IT'S A 2013 CHRYSLER 200 LX. I PUT 3 ALTERNATORS IN LESS THAN 5 MONTHS! A NEW BATTERY AS WELL! NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW WHAT'S THE PROBLEM. IT HAS TO BE A RE CALL. I SEE A LOT OF OWNERS REPORTING THINGS LIKE THIS. PLEASE HELP!

ENGINE KEEPS STALLING AT STOP LIGHTS AND SIGNS, MY KIDS ARE IN THE CAR AND DON'T WANT TO GET HIT BECAUSE OF IT, CAR HAS 129,000 MILES ALWAYS BEEN VERY WELL MAINTAINED AND NOW ONLY PROBLEMS. ALSO WE BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW MADE EVERY PAYMENT ON TIME ONLY TO START HAVING PROBLEMS ONCE IT'S PAID OFF. SO FRUSTRATING

MY VEHICLE STALLS WHEN I SLOW DOWN (1-5MPH) OR STOP. WHEN I'M IDLE THE ENGINE FEELS LIKE IT HAS NO POWER AND SOMETIMES IT FEELS AS IF IT MISFIRES. IT STALLS ONCE A DAY. MOST COMMON MOMENTS WHEN IT STALLS IS WHEN I STOP GOING UP A HILL.

THE ENGINE KEEPS STALLING WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT WARNING. IT IS UNABLE TO RESTART FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES, THEN WILL START UP NORMALLY AS IF NOTHING HAS HAPPENED. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO CHRYSLER SERVICE SEVERAL TIMES TO BE TOLD THAT NOTHING SHOWS UP ON THE DIAGNOSTIC AND THEY CANNOT DETERMINE THE ISSUE TO THIS VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM HAPPENS WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION AND CAN HAPPEN ANYTIME REGARDLESS OF SPEED, LOCATION, OR WHAT THE CAR IS DOING. IT HAPPENS REPEATEDLY, APPROXIMATELY EVERY 3 WEEKS.

WHILE DRIVING SLOWER, DECELERATING, OR BEGINNING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP, THE BRAKES AND STEERING LOCK UP, AND THEN THE CAR STALLS/SHUTS DOWN. THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER 5 TIMES IN THE PAST 2 WEEKS. PRIOR TO THAT, IT WOULD HAPPEN ABOUT ONCE A WEEK FOR ABOUT TWO MONTHS. IT HAS OCCURRED RIGHT BEFORE HAVING TO MERGE FROM A LANE OF HEAVY TRAFFIC (BUMPER-TO-BUMPER) ONTO A BUSY HIGHWAY, PUTTING ME IN A DANGEROUS POSITION. LUCKILY, AFTER TURNING THE IGNITION OFF AND THEN ON AGAIN, EVERYTHING WORKS FINE...UNTIL IT DOESN'T AGAIN.

DRIVING OVER 60 OR 70'MILES PER HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY AND ACCELERATING TOO FAST (STEPPING ON THE GAS PEDAL TOO MUCH) I.E. FLOORING IT. THE ENGINE WILL SHUT DOWN AND WILL NOT START AGAIN FOR AWHILE. ONCE THE VEHICLE STARTS UP THEN IT WORKS FINE. RARELY DO I NEED TO ACCELERATE THAT MUCH GOING THAT FAST BUT IT'S HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE AND THE MECHANIC I WENT TOO SAID HIS SON HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE.

AFTER A FEW MONTHS OF HAVING DTC COME UP FOR EVAP AND MISFIRE THEN DISAPPEAR JUST A QUICK AS IT CAME UP, MY VEHICLE HAS RECENTLY BEGAN STALLING OUT WHILE DRIVING, SPECIFICALLY WHILE DECELERATING OR IDLING. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED 2 YEARS AGO AND TESTS GOOD EVERY TIME, AS DOES THE ALTERNATOR, STARTER, WIRES, CONNECTORS AND SENSORS. NOBODY CAN FIND ANY DTC ON THE OBDII OR ANYTHING ELSE. IT'S EASY TO REPLICATE BUT IMPOSSIBLE TO DECIDE WHY. I'VE TALKED TO THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT POSSIBLE RECALLS FROM 2012 CONCERNING THE PCM AS WELL AS CHATTED WITH A FEW PEOPLE ON THE CHRYSLER WEBSITE AND NOBODY WANTS TO HELP. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION, AS I CAN PROVE WITH VIDEO FROM MY DASH CAM AND BACK UP CAM. THE PEOPLE ON THE CHRYSLER WEBSITE WERE VERY RUDE, AND THE DEALERSHIP WAS NOT WILLING TO STAND BEHIND THE PRODUCT EITHER WITHOUT CHARGING...

CAR STALLING WHILE DRIVING CALLED RECALL SAID THAT MY CAR DOESN'T GO BUT IT'S LOSTED UNDER MY RECALL

ENGINE STALL EVER TIME I DRIVE MY CAR ENGINE WILL STALL IT HAS HAPPEN TO ME 3 TIMES IN THE HIGHWAY.

AS I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ON THE INTERSTATE, ALL OF MY LIGHTS CAME ON AND THEN IT COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. I TRIED TO START IT MULTIPLE TIMES, AND THEN WHEN IT FINALLY STARTED UP AGAIN, THE WHOLE ENGINE WAS SHAKING AND MADE MY MUFFLERS RATTLE AS WELL. THEN IT COMPLETELY SHUT OFF AGAIN. I HAVE A NEW BATTERY, FRESH OIL CHANGE, AND MY CAR HAS BEEN CHECKED FOR ISSUES AND NONE WERE FOUND. MY ENGINE HAS QUIVERED EVERY NOW AND THEN SINCE I BOUGHT IT IN JUNE OF 2016, IT IS A 2013. SOMETHING NEEDS DONE, THE COMPANY NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL BECAUSE THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE. I DID CONTACT THE CHRYSLER COMPANY AND MADE THEM AWARE OF MY SITUATION.

THE HEATER COIL HAS STOP WORKING ON PASSENGERS SIDE, FROM BUILD UP OF SLUDGE. IT ONLY BLOWS HOT AIR ON DRIVER SIDE, NOT ALL THE TIME. SO I DO NOT HAVE A DEFROST TO KEEP MY WINDOWS CLEAR SO I DO NOT GOOD VISIBILITY. I HAVE RESEARCHED UP ON THIS ISSUE AND A LOT OF THESE CARS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 150,000.

MY ENGINE DIES OUT WHILE I AM DRIVING THEN AFTER SITTING FOR ABOUT 5 MINS IT STARTS BACK UP. IT'S BEEN CHECKED BY MECHANICS BUT NONE KNOWS WHY THIS IS HAPPENING. I AM AFRAID I WILL HAVE AN ACCIDENT, BECAUSE WHEN IT HAPPENS IT'S HARD TO STEER OUT OF TRAFFIC. MY CAR IS A 2013 200 BUT I PURCHASED IT IN 2015

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.

MY CAR ONLY HAS 73,000 MILES ON IT. I TAKE EXCELLENT CARE OF IT. LAST WEEK I THE ENGINE STARTED TO JUST TURN OFF WHILE AT A STOP. NO WARNINGS, NO INDICATORS THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG. THE CAR WILL TURN BACK ON WHEN I PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART ENGINE BY TURNING THE KEY. I HAVE RECENTLY SEEN ONLINE THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE WITH A LOT OF 200'S. I FEEL CHRYSLER HAS SOLD A LOT OF PEOPLE LEMONS. MORE IMPORTANTLY I'M CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY, THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY, AND SAFETY OF OTHER I SHARE THE ROAD WITH.

THE ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHEN AT AN IDLE OR SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A STOP. IT HAS DONE THIS NOW ABOUT 12 TIMES WITHIN THE LAST MONTH. MY CAR JUST MADE IT TO 53,000 MILES AND HAS ALWAYS HAD REGULAR OIL CHANGES AND MAINTENANCE. SO FAR, I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO PUT IT IN PARK AND RESTART. I WAS TAKING MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL YESTERDAY AND IT STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND THE ENGINE DIED. THE FIRST TIME THAT IT EVER HAPPENED I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE TO BACK OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND IT DIED THREE DIFFERENT TIMES. NO WARNINGS OR LIGHTS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC SHOP AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND...NOTHING. THE ENGINE HAS DIED AND STALLED 3 TIMES SINCE BEING IN THE SHOP.

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

I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR A WHILE NOW. I LIVE IN A PLACE THAT IS BELOW 40 DEGREES MORE OFTEN THAN IT IS ABOVE 40 DEGREES. THE ISSUE THIS CAR AND MANY OTHERS ARE PLAGUED WITH IS A HEATER CORE AND RADIATOR THAT ARE PLUGGED DUE TO A MANUFACTURING ERROR FROM CHRYSLER DIRECTLY. A PLUGGED HEATER CORE AND RADIATOR NOT ONLY IS UNSAFE; IT IS UNETHICAL BUSINESS PRACTICE. WHEN MY CAR DOES NOT PROPERLY HEAT, I CANNOT DEFROST MY WINDSHIELD BARRING MY VISIBILITY AND CREATING A MASSIVE SAFETY RISK FOR MYSELF AND FELLOW MOTORISTS. NOT ONLY DOES MY HEAT NOT WORK PROPERLY, MY CAR WILL OVERHEAT ON CERTAIN OCCASIONS. TO AN INEXPERIENCED CAR OWNER THE RISK OF DESTROYING THEIR ENGINE IS INCREDIBLY HIGH. THE REPAIR CAN RUN AS HIGH AS 1500 DOLLARS AT THE DEALERSHIP. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR AN ERROR THAT IS NOT MY OR...

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.
