2011 Chrysler 2 Series problems

“Formal Customer Complaint request for manufacturer assistance. Vehicle, 2011 Chrysler200 Touring, VIN [XXX], engine3.6L V6. I am the current owner and I'm requesting Chrysler open a case to review intermittent stalling, starting and electrical problems and an HVAC defrost actuator that repeatedly cycles and fails calibration, raising a concern about windshield defrost visibility. I've replaced parts and done diagnostics, but problems persist. I request that Chrysler investigate, review the VIN history, check applicable recalls, and consider goodwill assistance for diagnosis and repair if a manufacturer defect is found.”

“2011 Chrysler 200, 156k miles, Original owner. At Highway Speeds engine will shut off! Extremely dangerous as you lose power steering and brakes on a busy interstate. No warning lights. No check engine. Issue just started happening and has happened multiple times in last 3 weeks. Car is unsafe to drive. After occurrence car will restart after about 30 minutes. I do not know why NHTSA or Chrysler hasn't done anything to initiate an investigation and recall. This issue is widely reported on many forums. After second instance, a repair shop reproduced issue and saw U1403 so they updated PCM/ECU as they couldn't find anything else. It has happened since then and my scanner showed DTC codes P061C status code 30 and U0401 status code 20.”

“Approximately [XXX] on [XXX] I was driving from my home to a doctors appointment on [XXX] in Tampa Florida. Approximately 8 mins from my home. The roads were in desperate need of repair with patchy potholes uneven pavement. I was going approximately 30 to 35 miles an hour that is the speed limit for this road as I was going over I hit one of the shallow holes in the road when that happened. the car bounced, and the headset exploded into the back of my head.!! it startled me, but not enough to cause an accident. I pulled over to see what had happened when I saw the headset. It looks like it exploded.”

“While driving at high speeds 60 to 75 miles per hour and going up an upgrade, the transmission starts to buck violently which causes the driver lose concentration and possible control. I have to shift the transmission into manual mode and select a lower gear to gain control. Dealer service said software is up to date and transmission is working fine when reported after purchasing car. I have not been able to resolve this problem and feel it is a design issue. I am limited to slower speed driving due to this problem. Still have this problem and it occurs consistently and can be demonstrated.”

“WHILE TRAVELING ON M59 IN OAKLAND COUNTY MY DRIVERS SIDE TIRE BLEW OUT CAUSING THE CAR TO HIT THE CONCRETE MEDIAN AS STEERING WOULD NOT FUNCTION. MY CAR DAMAGE RENDERED IT A TOTAL LOSS AND CAUSED PHYSICAL INJURY TO ME. THE OAKLAND SHERIFF DEPT RESPONDED AND I WAS TAKEN BY AMBULANCE TO THE TROY BEAUMONT HOSPITAL. THIS HAPPENED 10/10/2020. I REMAIN IN GREAT PAIN IN AREAS OF HEAD AND TORSO.”

“When I start my car the airbag, slippery or skid resistant and the anti-locking brake instruments comes on periodically and then goes out; the radio stop working, has no control of the steering wheel it wouldn't steered correctly yesterday and it wouldn't go in any gear except park. go in park.”
