CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2015 Chrysler 200 carries the torch of "never buy the 1st year of a new vehicle generation" with pride.

The 2015 model year is the first year of the Chrysler 200's 2nd generation. It has been plagued by problems from the start. Transmission failure at extremely low mileage, many recalls, problems stalling while driving... the list goes on. Maybe Chrysler should have stuck with the 1st generation.

When I'm driving the vehicle after a few feet of driving the vehicle my car begins to to shake then it turns off, while I'm on the street. A lot of lights begin to turn on then my car turns off again. When I try to turn it off the transmission locks into neutral and won't let me turn it off. At some point once the lights turn on my speed begins to slow down, from going at 75 on the freeway it slowly start to decrease and when I hit the gas pedal it takes a while to pick up the speed. It's been like that for about a month.

My 2015 Chrysler 200 will just die while being driven. I started the car drove less than a mile when it turned off and coasted to a stop. I tried to restart the car but it just kept making noises, as I kept trying to get it to start it caused the battery to drain so low I had to call aaa. This seems to be a big problem as there are a ton of other people that have had this same issue!

Upon starting car' airbag light may or may not be on. Light turns on and off without warning and has been ongoing. Seems to be rough idle' when I place the car in gear it jerks. During normal driving the car stalls causing a safety concern for rear end impact while airbag light may be on that may cause injury or death. This matter should be investigated and corrective measures taken. After reading testimonials about other 2015 Chrysler 200 owners' there obviously is a pattern with safety concerns.

Takata recall - airbag warning sensor has been displaying off and on for over a year. When I called the dealership I was told it was wear and tear and it would cost me alot to replace them. The car will lose power (grog out) intermittently causing me to almost stall. And just recently the gas cap warning light came on, along with the engine light. I have tried to have it fixed but was told something was faulty.

First problem: The car stalls and/or dies while driving. It did this while my daughter was driving and she had to pull over on the highway. I managed to get it started and drive it home but it would not go over 25 mph. The check engine light, the electronic throttle control light, and the traction control light (?) were all on. Second problem: There is a message to service airbag system comes on. I did some research and found other people wit the same problem. On the yellow wire box under the passenger seat, there was a black latch (?) that clicked when I squeezed. The message went away.

Vehicle looses power while driving; both on the interstate and country roads. Turns itself off. Transmission freezes between 4th and 6th gears. And won't shift, causing loss of power.

My vehicle jerks when first starting off, engine on and airbag light been on over a year when I first purchase this vehicle they had to shampoo driver seat. After 2 or 3 months I took car for oil change and report the car jerking sometimes when taking off the mechanic took me I didn't need an oil change, and the car jerking was because it was new..so I believe him. They changed my oil for a year and randomly I told them it still jerk..it would jerk in the city on my job and on interstate.

My airbag light comes on and off, most of the time it stays on though. Also, the car will die after driving and will stall while driving. It also appears that there are some sort of electrical issues with the car and the gears shift strange, sometimes throwing me forward while driving.

The car stalls and shuts off any time the gas tank is filled up. The type of gas does not prevent the situation. The only way to avoid the issue is to not fill the tank completely. It doesn't happen right away 100% of the time. It's happened after I've pulled away from the gas pump and reentered the highway. When this happens, I have to place vehicle in park and restart it. Again this is 100% of the time when I fill my gas tank. Today, I was almost hit by oncoming traffic when my car stalled. I"M very afraid. I'm using today's date but this has been a reoccurring problem.

I can be driving it down the road it will shut it’'s self off. Will not start for about 15 to 20 minutes. This happend last night and when it did I was rear ended. When it does this the breaks lock up no matter how hard U push on them they won’T budge. Also it will try to start but the engine cranks at a really low speed but after awhile takes off. Also if you let it warm up it runs jus fine sometimes. Had it put on machine was told it was a map sensor replaced it and still got the same problem. Changed battery in key fob and car battery and still doing the same thing. Seen numerous people on here having the same issue. After replacing all that took to put back on a machine and was told I can’T help you cause it’'s not throwing any codes what do I do I got a car that I still owe almost 14,000 dollars on that is unsafe to be driving. The car does this when it’'s being driven can let set for hours and stays running but I can’T even make it 3 blocks without it dying and not starting back up for awhile. It’'s pathetic as for the date at the bottom that says when did this happen I’ll put it like this it happens every time I try to go anywhere it should be recalled and properly fixed.
