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 $300 just to diagnose. It's says right on the website "what is a safety recall? safety recalls include any problem encountered with an fca us 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." As well as "recall faqs fca us regards the safety and security of our customers and their families as paramount. Please see our list of faqs below to learn more about recalls and the precautions we take to keep you safe. If you don't see your concern listed, chat with usand one of our representatives will help answer any questions you may have." The recall I refer to is the tech bulletin 18-102-16A with the exact same symptoms "-2-
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

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 vehicle shut down on the highway at a high rate of speed (70mph). My steering was also not working at the time. Was able to finally pull over. Restarted the vehicle and it was fine. This is very dangerous.
2013 Chrysler 200 3.6L V-6 80,000 miles. During the 2018 winter in noticed my car was not coming up to running temperature and no T getting good heat out of the vents on drivers and passenger vents. I changed the thermostat and noticed a lot of grit and what looks like dirt in the antifreeze, but now the car comes up to running temperature and now I get good heat out of driver side vent but not out of the passenger side vent. I have been doing some reading on Chrysler 200 forums and I see a lot of complaints of the same problems I am having and saying the cause in is that the heater core is plugged and is about $900 to $1200 to fix. Is Chrysler going to cover the cost of the repairs? the cause of the heater core being plugged is when to blocks were being pored and machined leaving sand and other debris in the blocks because they were not cleaned properly.
