2013 CHRYSLER 200 Unknown Or Other Problems

The passenger side headrest deployed

Both front headrests popped open while driving. No collision or hard breaking involved. 2 separate occasions, passenger side first then drivers side.

There is no wrecks associated with this vehicle

3 months ago my passanger head rest popped open. Tried to close but couldnt. Today my driver seat head rest popped open as I was driving

The engine stalls without warning. The car is available for inspection upon request. There are no warning lamp messages or other symptoms before the engine stalls.

Got my 2013 Chrysler 200 limited in March 2022 , car would stall and lose power about a couple times a week , took to garage they said it was the psm either had to be replaced or reset , but soon after that my heat stopped working on passanger side blew cold and driver side blew earm , now back on to the stalling , my fiance noticed when checking things under hood that the battery was grounded on top but he said from where it's grounded they should have never painted it , but cleared paint off area and corrosion off the battery terminals and areas and My car has not stalled out again

The Active Headrest Restraint (AHR) failed. It deployed without cause and was inspected by the dealer. The issue was a small piece of plastic used in the manufacturing process. My wife was driving the car and out of nowhere a loud noise and she was struck in the back of the head. Luckily, she was driving at a slower speed and no other cars were around, she nearly went completely into the other lane. Had other cars been on the road, there would have been an accident. We took the car to the dealership when it happened with the passenger headrest a couple of years ago and the guy told us he ordered the parts to fix it, but it would take six months. We went back and he no longer works there an never ordered any parts. Since only my wife drives this car, we just let it go about the passenger headrest and moved on. I believe this is in regards to recalls S61 & T56. Both headrests are deployed and cannot be reset. To make matters worse, now the airbag warning light is illuminated at all times. An issue with airbags can be very serious and very dangerous if not addressed. After speaking on the phone with FCA customer care, I was told this was fixed in 2014 (2-3 years before the recall was issued) & that it was out of warranty. I do not believe it was fixed, maybe someone inspected the car, but it was not repaired. The dealer wants to charge me $1,000 to replace the headrests and that is something I cannot do. The recall site states "Safety recalls include any problem encountered with an FCA US LLC product related to the safe operation of the vehicle or the safety of the occupants. FCA US LLC will correct the problem, at no charge, even if the vehicle is out of warranty and you are not the original owner." this clearly does not matter to Chrysler. I have no other choice but to drive the vehicle with the airbag warnings on. I am hoping you can help. This is my last resort. It has not been inspected by the manufacturer and there were no warning lights prior to this.

For the past three months my car shuts off while driving for no reason without warning. Some times even when I am at a stop waiting for light to change while trying to accelerate to go it just shuts off and have to wait for some time to try to start it again. This problem started around May of 2023 and I have not found a solution. Replaced fuel pump based on a article I read on line, but problem continued as of today 11-23-2024

Cold air from Passenger side only, hot air from Driver side this issue started about 1 year ago tried different technicians they all had different opinions, but none had seen this issue before.

Car stalls randomly mostly at slow speed or idle but also upon acceleration and its throwing no codes

When my son was adjusting the seat to his height and reach, the headrest (commonly known as an AHR from my research) popped open. I was not hurt but could have been if I wasn't leaning forward at the time. I understand Fiat Chrysler is under a class action lawsuit for this very defect, yet my car is not part of the recall. Does this mean they are not liable? Do I have to join the class action lawsuit to get them to repair my headrest at no cost to me? I can take photos but I'm using an i-phone and my computer does not recognize the file extension.

The vehicle shuts off while driving at any given time. It started about 4 months ago while I was on the freeway in the fast lane. No warning lights or sounds came on. I costed over to the left shoulder because it was rush hour. When I tried to restart it, it sounded like it was stalling and I couldn't jump it either. It was like the engine got hot even though the gauge didn't say it was. After I let it set for about 30 minutes it started right back up. I thought it was a one time thing, but it's been doing it a lot more and I've had to sit and wait for longer periods of time. I searched online and found the symptoms of what it's doing and it appears there was a recall and investigation about the issue. If I remember correctly there was over 13,000 vehicles recalled for the powertrain module or something like that but when I searched my vehicle it says no recall.

Driving down the street and the car just stalls out of nowhere with no warning and then after a while will restart mechanic has no idea what could be wrong

The passenger side headrest airbag deployed while driving. No accident and was not hit by anything.

Multiple times the engine power steering and brake assistance will go out without warning. This has happened at intersections and has also happened on an extremely busy highway where I was nearly hit multiple times. When this happens the car will not start up immediately. After waiting approximately 30 minutes the car will finally restart again. I have taken it to the dealership and they cannot replicate the issue nor can they provide a solution.

Engine stops with no warning, making the power steering & brakes stop working. Mopar repair center could not duplicate the problem. When I picked it up, it happened in their parking lot while in my car waiting for it to warm up.

Purchased car 8/03/21. Got full possession of car 8/18/21. The car shuts off while driving and backing up with no warning. It shuts off when you press on the brakes. When you come to a complete stop and then press on the accelerator , the car hesitates to move, then moves very slowly , jerks then starts to move at a normal pace . Engine light comes on continuously.

Car shuts off randomly while driving and will not start back right away

AFTER MY VEHICLE WAS RECALLED FOR THE TCM, IT HAS NOT WORKED PROPERLY. I ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE CAR SEEMS TO SLIP INTO NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING. I WILL BE DRIVING AND SUDDENLY THE POWER DROPS AND THEN IT POPS BACK INTO DRIVE IF YOU PRESS THE GAS HARD ENOUGH. IT'S DANGEROUS AND EMBARRASSING.

MY CHRYSLER 200 WILL NOT ALWAYS START. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A FEW DIFFERENT MECHANICS AND NO ONE CAN FIGURE OUT WHY. IT IS INTERMITTENT WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURS. I HAVE HAD DIAGNOSTIC TESTING DONE AND NO ERRORS ARE EVER FOUND. BATTERY AND STARTER HAVE BEEN TESTED AND THEY PASS WITH FLYING COLORS. ALSO THE HEAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DOES NOT WORK. I'VE ALSO HAD THAT LOOKED AT BY THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE FROM AND THEY COULD NOT FIND THE REASON WHY IT DOESN'T WORK. I HAVE CHECKED RECALL STATUS AND NOTHING COMES UP FOR MY VEHICLE. VERY FRUSTRATING!!!

I HAD 4 WHEEL ALIGNMENT DONE ON MY 2013 CHRYSLER 200 AS THE WHEEL WAS PULLING, SHOOK AT CERTAIN SPEED AND STEERING WHEEL WAS NOT STRAIGHT. THOSE PROBLEMS WERE CORRECTED BUT NOW I HAVE A CLUNKING SOUND COMING FROM THE LEFT FRONT SOUNDS LIKE UNDER GAS AND BRAKE PEDALS. ALSO WHEN CAR IS IN PARK AND YOU TURN STEERING WHEEL YOU HEAR A NOISE, SO MAYBE THE CLUNKING COMES WHEN MOVING STEERING WHILE DRIVING BUT THIS IS A VERY ANNOYING NOISE AND IF YOU LOOK UP THIS YEAR CAR ON UTUBE THE VIDEO DESCRIBES THE NOISE EXACTLY. THIS CAR HAS LESS THAN 40,000 MILES ON IT. I WILL BE CHECKING WITH CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP IN MORNING TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY BULLETINS ON MY CAR FOR THIS ANNOYING CLUNKING SOUND.

HEAT ONLY COMES OUT ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. IT COMES OUT REALLY COLD IN THE PASSAGES. THE HEATER CORE WAS REPLACED LAST YEAR BE THE DEALER AND IT'S DOING IT AGAIN. I WAS SITTING A LIGHT AND WHEN IT TURNED GREEN I TRIED TO GO THAN IT WOULDN'T GO THAN IT JUMPED FORWARD AND IT WENT. I GOT A LITTLE DOWN THE ROAD THAN IT SLOWED DOWN AND IT WAS ALMOST LIKE DRIVING IN NEUTRAL WOULDN'T PICK UP SPEED AT ALL. IT STOPPED MOVING AGAIN THAN IT WOULDN'T GO AT ALL THE COPS HAD TO HELP ME PUSH IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

APPROXIMATELY 2 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING MY 2013 CHRYSLER 200 LTD (6-CYL.; MILEAGE APPROX. 79K), THE CAR BEGAN RANDOMLY LOSING POWER AND STALLING OUT WHILE I WAS DRIVING. WHEN THIS OCCURRED, I ONLY HAD A FEW SECONDS TO SLOWLY COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY. THE CAR WOULD NOT RESTART, AND I HAD TO CALL A WRECKER. THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED 5 TIMES. ALL OF MY TRIPS WERE LOCAL WHEN THE ENGINE STALLS OCCURRED, AND EACH STALL CAME WITHOUT ANY WARNING WHILE I WAS SIMPLY CRUISING DOWN A HIGHWAY OR A CITY STREET, AND NOT TRAVELING UP OR DOWN ANY SIGNIFICANT SLOPES. WHEN THE CAR ENGINE DIED, THE DASHBOARD INDICATORS ALL ILLUMINATED WHILE THE ENGINE WAS DYING. I HAVE HAD CHRYSLER SERVICE RESPOND TO THE SCENE IMMEDIATELY TO GET DIAGNOSTICS, AND THE CAR IS NOT THROWING OUT ANY DIAGNOSTIC CODES. WHEN THE ENGINE DIES, IT CAN BE RESTARTED AFTER THE CAR SITS FOR AWHILE... MAYBE A FEW HOURS. THE PCM (COMPUTER) WAS REPLACED AND ALL SOFTWARE PATCHES HAVE BEEN INSTALLED, BUT THAT DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP REPAIR SHOP OVER A MONTH NOW, WHILE THEY WAIT HOPEFULLY FOR A TECHNICAL WIZARD TO IMPART EXPLORATORY REPAIR MAGIC OVER THEIR STAR NETWORK. I SURE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE MY CAR BACK....WORKING. I WAS FORTUNATE TO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET MY CAR OFF THE ROAD ON THE OCCASIONS THAT IT DIED. I COULD HAVE BEEN IN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION OTHERWISE. IT IS NOTED THAT NHTSA CLOSED THEIR INVESTIGATION OF THIS PROBLEM WITH THE CHRYSLER 200, SHORTLY AFTER A SOFTWARE PATCH WAS RELEASED IN SEPT. 2012.

OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER. HOW CAN I GET A LOANER CAR UNTIL THE PARTS COME IN? IN ADDITION, I HEAR A LOUD TAPPING NOISE IN COMING FROM THE DASHBOARD AREA DOES THIS HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH WGY THIS IS BEING RECALLED. I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER.

31 DAYS AFTER PURCHASING MY VEHICLE THE BLOWER FOR THE HEAT AND AIR CONDITIONING BEGAN TO SPUTTER AND WORK SPORADICALLY THEN COMPLETELY QUIT A WEEK OR SO LATER AS A RESULT AN ESSENTIALLY NEW VEHICLE HAS NO HEATBAND NO DEFROST WHICH I'VE LEARNED IS DANGEROUS WHEN IT'S RAINING AS I CAN'T SEE OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD. I BELIEVE THIS IS AM ELECTRICAL ISSUE NOT ONLY BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE BLOWER BROKE BUT SOMETIMES THE POWER WINDOWS WILL STOP WORKING THEN WORK AGAIN. WARNING LIGHTS WILL FLASH ON FOR NO REASON THEN DISAPPEAR. THE GAS LIGHT WILL STAY ON LONG AFTER GAS HAS BEEN PUT IN THE CAR DO THAT I HAVE TO TURN THE COMPLETELY OFF THEN BACK ON TO MAKE IT GO AWAY.

ON THE EVENING OF MAY 3RD, 2016 I RETURNED TO MY VEHICLE AFTER WORK TO FIND THAT THE DRIVER HEAD RESTRAINT HAD BEEN DEPLOYED FOR UNKNOWN REASONS. EARLIER THAT DAY I WENT TO THE BANK ALL WAS WELL THE HEAD RESTRAINT WAS COMPLETELY INTACT. AT APPROXIMATELY 5:05PM I RETURNED TO MY VEHICLE TO HEAD HOME AND NOTICED THAT I COULD NOT REST MY HEAD AS I DO ON A DAILY BASIS ON MY DRIVE HOME. MY CONCERNS ARE THAT IF I WERE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC OR ON THE FREEWAY AND IT UNEXPECTEDLY DEPLOYED POTENTIALLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT OR WORSE DUE TO A CHAIN REACTION. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE CHRYSLER RECALL CENTER. FILED A COMPLAINT, ISSUED A CASE NUMBER AND WAS TOLD THAT SOMEONE WOULD BE CONTACTING ME TO INVESTIGATE WITH A POSSIBLE RESOLUTION. I HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED AS OF 5/9/2016. I ALSO FOLLOWED UP ON THE CASE FRIDAY MAY 6TH . THE CASE NUMBER HAD NOT BEEN ASSIGNED. I'M LOOKING FOR A RESOLUTION AS TO WHY THIS HAPPENED UNEXPECTEDLY AND WHAT IF ANYTHING WOULD BE MY OPTIONS. IF THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER, THIS COULD POTENTIALLY BECOME A SAFETY HAZARD.
