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.

Queja de Defecto de Seguridad por Falla de TCM y Negligencia de Recall VIN del Vehículo: [XXX] Mi vehículo Chrysler 200, año 2015, ha experimentado una falla total del Módulo de Control de Transmisión (TCM), resultando en la pérdida abrupta de potencia e inmovilización de la unidad. Esta falla no solo es mecánica, sino que representa un peligro crítico para la seguridad, ya que puede ocurrir sin previo aviso en la carretera. Mi vehículo tiene 4 Recalls de seguridad obligatorios y pendientes (U90, W84, X80, XB1). El fabricante (Stellantis) se ha negado a resolver la falla del TCM y a atender los Recalls pendientes. A pesar de haber notificado formalmente a los departamentos de México (Caso No. XXX) y a los contactos corporativos en EE. UU., la compañía ha evadido la responsabilidad por más de 7 días. Tuve que pagar por un diagnóstico que confirmó la falla del TCM (Costo de reparaciónes y diagnostico estimado a la fecha: $35,496 MXN). Solicito a la NHTSA abrir una investigación sobre este defecto crítico de seguridad y la negligencia del fabricante en el cumplimiento de los Recalls federales.

The 2 recalls R-24 and R-55 were both supposedly fixed at the hunt Chrysler in Franklin ky but my vehicle is still shifting up into neutral randomly I almost got hit because I was pulling out of a stop sign and the car stalled and went into neutral and I was stuck in the middle of the road and luckily nobody was coming so I had time to restart the car and get out of the way but the recall work they did was not done correctly otherwise they would have not called and said my car was ready to be picked up. Then they hung up on me when I called to see what I needed to do about getting my car back in to be fixed correctly and they literally hung up and refused to do their job and ensure that my vehicle is safe by correctly performing the recall work that Chrysler sent them to do. I looked it up and the step by step guide is online and they did not follow Chryslers guidelines or standards and I want answers please.
The uconnect/radio is off and it is available for inspection. In some extreme cases, a malfunctioning radio could potentially interfere with other critical vehicle functions, creating a safety hazard. Also it interferes with my A/C & only blows hot air when it chooses to work. It hasn-??t been expected by the manufacturer, it-??s only been expected audio tech & mechanics & stated they can-??t detect the problem. There was no warning signs just a complete shut off & never turned on again
The radio screen sounded as if it shorted out, went blank, and now my battery dies if I don't run my car every day. My odometer flashes and my engine light is on, but the engine codes that come up are related to the Evap. System Integrity Module, and the Active Grille Shutter that I'm sure need replacement due to age. I'm not sure if there is indeed a short, but my battery has been replaced three times (this time being the fourth) since 2019 which seems excessive leading me to believe that there may be one. When reaching out to my local dealership I am advised to bring in for them to look at which costs $150 just for the service department to troubleshoot. I during a previous recall I was informed that it costs $1800 to replace the radio. Upon further review I discovered that I am not the only owner with this same issue. Several owners have has this happen to their vehicles. I believe this is worth looking into.
On July 4th 2024 I was driving home and transmission started acting up and leaked everywhere come to find out after inspection the transmission pan exploded under my vehicle and it will not drive at all it's saying service power train and service transmission and the car won't turn off or start and it's stuck in drive along with the emergency brake turned on by itself and the vehicle started to smoke
I had just purchased my vehicle on 03/06/2024. A few days after purchasing my vehicle, the check engine light came on. I took it to Autozone to get the check engine light code read and see what the issue was. The code showed a cylinder 4 misfire. I purchased and replaced replaced the spark plugs, egnition coils, a sensor and cleaner for fuel injectors and throttle body. After I replaced the different parts, it was still showing the check engine light. I took it to Bi O Tires and they had the code read and told me it had a cylinder 4 misfire. They told me to take it to Tunex because they were not able to fix it there. I took it to Tunex and they did a diagnostic to see the reason it was misfiring and told me that the car wasn't misfiring and that the vehicle was fine. They turn the check engine light off and after a couple of days the check engine light came on. I took it to the Chrysler dealership to get it checked, they told me that they were going to check it and fix a recall issue on it, and that if the check engine light came on, they didn't know what to do. The check engine light is back on.
The car keeps acting like it goes in to neutral and cuts out all the time sensors keep popping up saying engine is overheating engine temperature sensor the check engine light keeps popping up and the engine temperature thing keeps going away
Shift performance unavailable and my steering wheel gets hard to turn and my car won-??t accelerate. Sometimes won-??t shift to drive & the parking break will stay on even when not pressed

Vehicle directional system indicates that vehicle is traveling in the opposite direction of actual movement. ie: indicates vehicle is traveling north when the vehicle is actually traveling south; west when actually traveling east; south when traveling north; east when actually traveling west You may think this is not a safety issue but if a driver goes by the vehicles indicated path of direction (especially at night), the driver could end up in an isolated/unpopulated area at a time when their vehicle requires gas, the driver requires emergency services, etc. In addition to being an inconvenience (adding miles/hours of travel to a drivers trip), this could be a safety issue/dangerous =>place a driver in an unsafe area/neighborhood &/or in an area with no services/facilitates to purchase gasoline, etc....have the driver-in an unfamiliar area-going in the opposite direction of emergency services/hospitals, etc....I recently purchased a used 2015 Chrysler 200 for a trip from AZ to NE NV. I embarked on my trip within a week of purchasing the vehicle. My departing had been delayed by the need to purchase medication to relieve my service dogs travel related anxiety. I had no time to become familiar with my newly purchased vehicle. Driving through Las Vegas, my vehicles navigation indicated I was driving south - when I needed to be driving north. I am unfamiliar with Las Vegas. I did not know if I was actually driving in the direction I needed to be traveling => north. The following day, driving during a moonless night, I was completely disoriented and became lost while following the direction my vehicle indicated I was traveling. For 2 hours I traveled in a direction that I believed to be north (my vehicle indicated I was traveling north). It was pitch black. I ended up in the middle of nowhere...I did not know where I was. I backtracked to a town I had passed through =>where I could get a motel and fuel... Navigation software error/malfunction
Car randomly accelerates on it's own. Typically when I am trying to come to a stop. Happened to the mechanic when he test drove it. Did not know what to do about it. Service airbag light also on for seemingly no reason.
El auto luego de estar encendido y se apaga, se trata de prender de nuevo pero sale un mensaje de -??Engine Warming Wait to Star-?? luego hay qie esperar varios minutos para que vuelva a encender.
