My head rest restraint deployed overnight whole the car was sitting in my driveway. I see multiple complaints of this and reached out to a dealership/Chrysler corporate and they said I have to pay for it out of pocket. They said the warranty for it was extended but I never received a notification of it being an issue or a warranty. The car was purchased in 2017 and had 2 recall, I took it to a dealership within a month and they said the recall was fixed. However less then 5 years later my head rest restraint deployed on it's own, there was no collision to my car while it sat in my driveway

Vehicle randomly stalls, reverse and drive. It will stall in traffic, while driving and backing out of the driveway. I had a P0335 code after it stalled about 10 time. I have changed the crankcase sensor 3 times but does not correct the issue. Also have electrical issue with windows not working and only half the defrost working.

Took car in to dealership years ago to have head rest and airbags fixed. Received a notice by inputting my VIN that these fixes were incomplete. Also discovered that the 3.6 pentastar engine from the factory had substandard engine bearings which could result in the engine seizure and the remedy was for the factory to replace the engine. My 2012 Chrysler 200 was manufactured during this time frame, yet was never notified by the manufacturer of this dangerous condition.

I bought my car brand new in 2012 from chryaler Dodge and Jeep in springfield pa. I babe around 96,000 miles on my car and this will now be the third alternator that has been put in my vehicle. From what I know, the alternator should last up between 80,000 to 100,000 miles. I believe there has to have been a defect with my specific car. Along with some of the other recall items I am now reading about with my model, having kids, I am increasingly concerned about my health and saftey driving this vehicle. I want to know what can be done about this on your end

The contact owns a 2012 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that there was no failure with the horn operating until the vehicle was serviced for an unspecified manufacturer recall regarding the air bags. Months after the air bag recall was serviced by massey yardley Jeep Chrysler Dodge Ram (777 North state road 7, plantation, fl 33317, 954-327-4000), the horn failed to function properly and various warning indicators flashed on the instrument panel without warning. The contact was waiting for a response from the dealer to determine if they could duplicate the failure. The manufacturer was notified. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 46,000.

This car has a air bag sign in dasboard. 7-8 months ago there was a air bag recall for this car but the Agency said it was for different part recall which means this car still has an airbag sign in dashboard. I am not sure when did the sign appear first time. One day I started this car and their was an airbag sign and it never disappear after that.
