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.

Vehicle, even after repair continues to have front-passenger airbag light. Even after oil levels are changed and maintained, cabin and air filters changed, vehicle continues to stall even after servicing (both paid and under warranty) Chrysler has not resolved the issues that harbor my vehicle and offer no solution. Temp/engine light issue came on during highway travel. Stalling usually occurs on city and residential streets. Both in motion.

My air bag light always comes on. Saying it needs to be serviced every time the front passenger seat is moved. My radio used to shut off while I'm driving and reboot like if im starting the car.. now it doesn't turn on at all. It just glitches. Since I got the car when I go to switch gears the car will switch gears hard. Like if something is wrong with the transmission.

My air quit working and the air bag light has been on for a year. I have taken my car to several places and cannot find whats wrong with the air bag light that will not go off. I have bought a control moduler for the blowing air which I was directed to buy by a part dealership and still nothing. I am worried that my air bags do not work properly and also it is winter and no hot air still after buying a three hundred dollar piece plus the price of the mechanic for putting it in.

At times, but it's happened at least 12 in the past 10 months, there is away that a person can sit in the passenger side seat or sometimes by adjusting it that will make the airbag light come on. All I have to do is reach underneath the seat and jiggle the wires a little and it goes off. It occurs at different times.

First I received the wheel sensor warning. Then the air bag warning. Then a vape leak issue, and now my dash lights are going completely out making it impossible to detect speed. My car has approximately 140,000. My vehicle is in motion when this electrical issue occurs. I have been on both a highway and interstate, and driving straight during the blackout. It has occurred multiple times in the last few days. The electrical issue may be related to this recall: Chrysler (fca us llc) is recalling certain model year 2015 Chrysler 200 vehicles manufactured January 7, 2014, to September 23, 2014. The affected vehicles may have a power distribution center (pdc) electrical connector that may cause intermittent power failures to certain electrical components.

The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that the air bag warning light and check engine warning light were illuminated. Additionally, the brake pedal was firm, requiring extra effort to depress. The contact took the vehicle to boles automotive service center, llc (354 union cemetery rd sw, concord, nc 28027, (704) 792-1005) who replaced the brakes and completed an air bag related recall repair on the vehicle. The contact stated that the failures persisted. The contact returned the vehicle to the same dealer who stated that the diagnostic codes retrieved were not conclusive which indicated an electrical issue with the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact had not contacted the manufacturer. The approximate failure mileage was 40,000.

The contact owns a 2015 Chrysler 200. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle hesitated upon depressing the accelerator pedal. After some time, the vehicle abruptly accelerated forward causing the contact to temporarily lose control of the vehicle. The contact also stated that the service air bags warning light was illumined on the instrument panel. The dealer had yet to be notified of the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and they informed her that there were no recalls on the vehicle. The contact was then referred to NHTSA for assistance. Upon investigation, the contact linked the failure to NHTSA campaign number: 16V529000 (power train). The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

My airbag light continues to come on stating that I need to service my airbag system. It will stay on for awhile, and then shut off for approx 2-4 weeks, and then turn back on again. Today I was driving my car, and when I got to a stop sign my car kind of sputtered, and then turned off stating I need to put my car in park, and push the start button. This seems to happen when my car says "oil change required". pretty scary, because I don't know if this will happen when im driving on the highway.

The air bag light service indicator light would come on intermittently along with an alarm sounding every few minutes while driving one week after purchasing the car. We took it to the dealership and they 'fixed' the connection only to have the airbag indicator light come on again. Took it to a different dealership who said the wiring and airbag jumpers need to be replaced at a cost of $3200 or the airbags won't work.

My car tries to accelerate when coming to a stop. It randomly loses power. Does fine on highways so far. It only has issues when it involved gears shifting. I took it to a shop and they said it was dangerous to drive. They said it was not a transmission issue like the dealership shop said. It was a waiting issue. Likely associated with the recall I've had this shop "fix" twice.
