Takata recall...I haven't experienced any accident's and I pray I don't, however I do not feel safe at driving this car knowing the defects that can possibly go wrong in it. I have kids that are my main priority always in the car with me and I'll hate to be in an accident and these defects take place this is not a chance I'm willing to take since I've found out these issues. As of now I'm showing that there is no resolution for the issues so I'm wanting to see about trading this vehicle in asap.

It has been over 6 months and Chrysler still cannot repair/replace the problem with air bag and seat belt deployment. It is unconscionable that a car manufacturer can jeopardize a purchaser life by saying both the air bag and seat belt may not work properly and cause injury, but we cannot (will not) fix it.

Chrysler 200 - loss of airbag and seatbelt pretensioner deployment capability. A shorting condition resulting in a negative voltage transient that travels to the occupant restraint controller via the front impact sensor wires. Increased risk of injury in a crash.
My 2014 Chrysler 200 is subject to the S61 recall because the air bag and seat belt may not deploy or operate properly in an accident. Fca says it has no fix for the issue, but is comfortable with placing my young daughter's life at risk every time she drives. Apparently it is cheaper for them to pay off in a death than really take care of the issue. They clearly can do something since they offer reimbursement if you have already had the issue fixed and they no longer use that faulty device in their new vehicles. Chrysler's response to wait and see if something happens is totally unacceptable. Chrysler should be forced to take these vehicles off the road and provide compensation to owners even if that is a deal to trade at the customer's benefit for an equivalent car without this issue. To add insult to injury, one of their dealers was going to "help" me by offering me $5000 less than blue book value on a new commesurate vehicle and upping my monthly payments by $200.
