TAKATA RECALL- WINDOWS ARE NOT PROPERLY DEFROSTING AT ALL

CHRYSLER RECALL S61 FOR OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER. I WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE PARTS WERE FINALLY AVAILABLE TO COMPLETE THE RECALL BUT AFTER MORE THAN ONE MONTH THE WORK HAS YET TO BE SCHEDULED. I HAVE CALLED ALL OF THE LOCAL DEALERSHIPS AND NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. I HAD AN APPOINTMENT WITH A LOCAL DEALERSHIP THAT THEY CANCELLED AT THE LAST MINUTE SINCE THE PARTS NEVER CAME IN. I HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO GIVE ME A DATE AS TO WHEN PARTS ARE TO BE RELEASED. I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM CHRYSLER IN JULY INDICATING PARTS WERE AVAILABLE AND TO SCHEDULE THE WORK BUT THAT IS NOT TRUE. CHRYSLER WAS TO CHECK ON PARTS AND NOTIFY ME THIS WEEK BUT THEY DID NOT DO SO. I HAVE ALSO TRIED TO FIND OUT FROM THE DEALERSHIP WHEN PARTS WILL BE READY BUT THEY SYA IT IS UP TO CHRYSLER. ALL THE TIME CHRYSLER SAYS THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION BUT SEEMS NOT TOO INTERESTED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. UPDATED 10/23/2017*JS

THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V668000 (SEAT BELTS, AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART NEEDED FOR THE REPAIR WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY DURING STOP-AND-GO, RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, MY VEHICLE'S ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WITHOUT ANY WARNING. AT THE MOMENT OF THE ENGINE STALLING, I WAS COASTING WITH MY FOOT OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR AT LESS THAN 5 MPH, UP A SLIGHT INCLINE, ON AN OVERPASS AND INSIDE OF A CONSTRUCTION ZONE THAT WAS VOID OF A SHOULDER TO PULL OFF ONTO. WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO DEPRESS THE ACCELERATOR TO MAKE IT OVER THE UPHILL OVERPASS, THE PEDAL WAS LIMP AND NOTHING HAPPENED. THE ELECTRICAL PANEL IN MY DASH WAS OFF, WITH THE VEHICLE STILL IN DRIVE AND NO PHYSICAL OR AUDIO SIGNS OF WARNING OCCURRED PRIOR TO THE ENGINE SHUTTING OFF. I QUICKLY HIT THE BRAKES TO AVOID ROLLING IN REVERSE DOWN THE OVERPASS, SHIFTED THE VEHICLE INTO PARK AND TURNED THE IGNITION KEY TO OFF. WHEN I ATTEMPTED THE RESTART THE ENGINE, THE VEHICLE STARTED AS IF NOTHING HAD OCCURRED. AFTER DRIVING THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE CONSTRUCTION ZONE, I EXITED THE FREEWAY. AFTER MAKING A SHARP, RIGHT-HANDED TURN FROM THE OFF-RAMP TO THE LOCAL ROAD, THE EMERGENCY "BRAKE" WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH TURNED ON AND WAS ACCOMPANIED WITH AN AUDIO WARNING. THE LIGHT REMAINED LIT FOR THE DURATION OF THE TURN AND FOR APPROXIMATELY 500 FEET AFTERWARD UNTIL IT TURNED OFF. NO OTHER ABNORMALITIES WERE OBSERVED WITH THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAS SLIGHTLY MORE THAN 120K MILES ON IT AND NOTHING LIKE THIS HAS EVER OCCURRED IN THE PAST. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 200, ESPECIALLY WITH THE 2011 AND 2012 MODELS. MY ENGINE IS A 4-CYL, 2.4L. DESPITE THIS WIDESPREAD HAZARD, AND AN EARLY INVESTIGATION BY THE NHTSA, NO RECALL HAS BEEN MANDATED. THE RATIONALE? BECAUSE IT OCCURS AT A "LOW RATE IF SPEED". THIS IS ABSURD. I WAS ON A FREEWAY OVERPASS, INSIDE A CONSTRUCTION ZONE, DURING RUSH HOUR. IF THIS NOT A HAZARD, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS. PLEASE MANDATE A RECALL FOR THIS BEFORE SOMEONE DIES ON A TRAIN TRACK OR INTERSECTION.

WHEN DRIVING MY 200 IF I AM ENTERING TRAFFIC AND HAVE TO INCREASE SPEED (GO ABOVE 3000 RPMS) IT WILL HESITATE WITH NO INCREASE IN SPEED BEFORE JOLTING INTO THE NEXT GEAR. IT WILL DO THIS AT ANY TIME, FROM A COMPLETE STOP OR WHILE DRIVING AT 45MPH AND NEEDING TO PICK UP SPEED TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT TOO. IVE ALMOST BEEN HIT SEVERAL TIMES, SO NOW IM THE ANNOYING PERSON WHO WAITS TO GO UNTIL NO OTHER CARS ARE APPROACHING. I ALWAYS WARM UP MY CARS BEFORE DRIVING AND THIS CAR WILL TRY TO DIE MULTIPLE TIMES FOR NO REASON.

THERE IS A KNOCKING OR CLUNKING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE CAR, IN OR AROUND STEERING COLUMN. I'VE HAD LOWER ARM CONTROL AND SWAY BAR REPLACED AND IT DID NOTHING TO HELP THE PROBLEM. I THEN HAD CHRYSLER DIAGNOSE IT AND THEY TOLD ME TO REPLACE THE INNER AND OUTER TIE RODS, WHICH I DID AND THAT DID NOT HELP. THE NOISE COMES AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FOR ABOUT HALF AN HOUR. IT SOUNDS AS THOUGH SOMETHING IS LOSE IN THE STEERING COLUMN. I'VE RESEARCHED AND CAME ACROSS A RECALL LIST FOUND ON CHRYSLER.COM FOR THE YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL OF MY CAR FOR THE STEERING COLUMN, AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AND PASSENGER AIRBAG. THE CAR ALSO FALLS WITHIN THE DATE. BUT WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN DOESN'T SHOW BUT ONE, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. CHRYSLER HAS NOT BEEN HELPFUL WHATSOEVER AND WANT MONEY FOR A PROBLEM THEY CAN'T FIX.

THE ENGINE DIED WHEN IDLE AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. I HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTART THE ENGINE. THIS ALSO HAPPENED WHILE I WAS IN FRONT OF A RAILROAD TRACK. I WAS VERY AFRAID THAT THAT CAR WOULD NOT START. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER I HAD CALMED MYSELF. THIS IS IS VERY DANGEROUS SO I TOOK IT TO HAVE DIAGNOSTICS PERFORMED AT DEALER. THE VEHICLE REPORT SHOWED NO COMPUTER CODES INDICATING FAILURE.

S61 RECALL FOR SOME KIND OF SAFETY MODULE FOR MY CAR. CHRYSLER WON'T FIX IT AND IT HAS BEEN WELL OVER 6 MONTHS. MY LIFE AND THE LIVES OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS ARE IN DANGER AND CHRYSLER WON'T GIVE ME A LOANER CAR TO DRIVE UNTIL THE PARTS COME IN.

I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION.THURSDAY 9TH FEB I WAS GOING TO WORK MY SPEED WAS AROUND 65-70 MPH. I SLOWED DOWN TO LET ON COMING TRAFFIC AND MY TRANSMISSION JUST JUMPED HARD. IT HAS SOMETIMES CLUNKED WHEN GOING AROUND 45 MPH BUT NOT THAT HARD. IT SCARED ME I THOUGHT MY TRANSMISSION WAS FALLING OUT. I BOUGHT IT 2 MONTHS AGO AND HAD NO OTHER PROBLEMS UNTIL JUST NOW.

THE ALTERNATOR EXPERIENCED A RAPID FAILURE: WHILE DRIVING ON I-95 NORTH THROUGH MARYLAND AT HIGHWAY SPEED (~65 MPH), THE ABS AND STEERING CONTROL INDICATOR LIGHTS BEGAN TO BLINK ON AND OFF, JOINED SHORTLY THEREAFTER BY THE BRAKE INDICATOR. THIS WENT ON FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS BEFORE THE VENTS SUDDENLY BEGAN TO BLOW HOT AIR. I PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND SHUT THE ENGINE. THE CAR WOULD NOT RESTART AND THE BATTERY DIED--NO HAZARD LIGHTS, OR ANYTHING. I LIFTED THE HOOD TO CHECK AND IT SMELLED LIKE SOMETHING WAS BURNING. AFTER HAVING THE CAR TOWED FOR SERVICE, THEY SAID IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR. THE CAR IS A 3.6L WITH A 160 AMP ALTERNATOR. THE SAME ALTERNATOR WAS RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUE (NHTSA RECALL 14V-634) IN THE REAR-WHEEL DRIVE VERSIONS OF THESE CHRYSLERS. FROM MY UNDERSTANDING, THE ALTERNATOR IN MY CAR IS IDENTICAL TO THE RECALLED ALTERNATOR, DIFFERING ONLY IN THE HOUSING. THERE WERE NEVER ANY INDICATORS THAT THE ALTERNATOR WAS GOING BAD--NO DIMMING LIGHTS, NO HISTORY OF REQUIRING JUMP STARTS, ETC. THIS CAME OUT OF NOWHERE AND WOULD HAVE PUT US IN A DEAD CAR IN THE MIDDLE OF A MAJOR INTERSTATE IN A RAINSTORM HAD WE NOT PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER IMMEDIATELY. *TR

THE BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR MAKING NOISES. KNOCKING SOUND. ALSO THE SOUND IS MAKING A SQUEAKY DOOR SOUND. THIS SOUND IS ABOVE THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT. PASSENGERS ARE VERY STARTLED WHEN IT MAKES A NOISE WHEN CAR IS RUNNING OR NOT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHRYSLER 200. ON DECEMBER 31, 2016, WHILE THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE SLID OFF OF THE ROAD, CROSSED A DITCH, AND CRASHED INTO A TREE STUMP.

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. A DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED.

I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL FROM FIAT CHRYSLER IN DECEMBER 2016 AND SIGNED UP ON 12/30/16 AT RECALLS.MOPAR.COM PER THE INSTRUCTIONS TO RECEIVE NOTIFICATION WHEN PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE AND I NEVER HEARD FROM ANYONE. MY REFERENCE # IS 30612591

AFTER 5 YEARS, I DISCOVERED THAT THERE IS A STAR ISSUE ON THIS CAR WITH CASTING SAND CONTAMINATING THE RADIATOR, COOLING AND HEATING SYSTEMS. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS TO CHARGE ME $2200 TO FIX EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE SINCE BEFORE I PURCHASED THE CAR. IT CAME OUT IN FEBRUARY 2011. STAR ISSUE S1109000002. FIRST MY AC DID NOT WORK. THE DEALER REPLACED. THEN MY HEAT DID NOT WORK BUT DEALER SAID IT WAS CONTAMINATED WITH CASTING SAND AND IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND IT IS NOT FAIR THAT YOU HAVE TO PAY BUT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL NOT REPAIR IF CONTAMINATED. THIS IS A KNOWN CHRYSLER PROBLEM FROM THE GET GO BUT NOT QUITE A RECALL. NOW PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO SELL 5 YEAR OLD CARS FOR PARTS ONLY. THERE WILL BE CERTAIN DEATHS FROM THIS ISSUE WHEN THE ENGINE EVENTUALLY SEIZES UP FROM ALL THIS CONTAMINATION AND CAUSES CRASHES. THE SERVICE MANAGER STATED THAT THE FIX ACTUALLY DOES NOT REALLY FIX THE CAUSE. IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN!!!! I SAID WHY DOESN'T THE DEALERSHIP PUT IN THE PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE SUGGESTED IN THE STAR ISSUE AND HE SAID BECAUSE IT DOES NOT HAPPEN TO EVERY CAR. SO BEWARE BUYING A 2011 CHRYSLER 200 BECAUSE IT IS BASICALLY A FIVE YEAR CAR PERIOD. THE STAR ISSUE NUMBER S1109000002 IS CAUSING ENGINES TO SEIZE UP DUE TO LARGE CONTAMINATION THROUGHOUT THE HVAC SYSTEM, RADIATOR, AND ENGINE AS IT SPREADS INTO EVERYTHING. IT IS LIKE DRIVING A TICKING TIME BOMB THAT HAS NO HEAT! IT HAS NOT BEEN A SAFETY PROBLEM YET BUT AS THESE VEHICLES GET TO BE MY MILEAGE, THESE ISSUES CAN BECOME QUITE SERIOUS, PARTICULARLY IF THEY DO NOT HAVE IT MONITORED BY A DEALER AND THE ENGINE JUST FREEZES ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE IT IS COMPLETELY CONTAMINATED WITH SAND. I PAID $30,000 FOR A FIVE YEAR CAR AND DEALER WILL NOT HONOR EXTENDED WARRANTY SO I MUST DRIVE A CAR THAT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE ANYMORE. THERE IS ALSO A CURRENT RECALL THAT AIRBAGS AND SEATBELT DO NOT WORK IN ACCIDENT. *TR

WE LEFT CANADA TO GO ON A VACATION TO SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, THE TRIP WAS 3200 KILOMETRES. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE WIPERS WENT UP ABOUT 6 INCHES AND STOPPED WITHOUT BEING ON. LATER DID IT AGAIN. A FEW MORE TIMES. WE THEN TRIED TO TURN THEM ON AND IT WENT HALF WAY AND STOPPED. AFTER THAT IT DID ALL KINDS OF WEIRD THINKS FROM TURNING ON WHEN THE SWITCH WAS OFF. THIS PROBLEM CAUSED US TO HAVE TO STOP SEVERAL TIMES DURING OUR TRIP DUE TO RAINING AND SNOWING. THE LAST DAY WHEN WE FINALLY ARRIVED TO PALM SPRINGS, WHEN I SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF, THE WIPERS WERE ON AT FULL SPEED. I HAD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY TO STOP IT. I THEN WENT ON THE INTERNET AND DID SOME RESEARCH. THANK GOODNESS FOR PEOPLE POSTING THEIR PROBLEMS ON THE INTERNET, I WAS ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM TO THE TIPM. IT APPEARS TO BE A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH CHRYSLER TIPM'S. AND OF COURSE THIS IS NOT A WARRANTY ITEM AS THE WARRANTY HAD JUST EXPIRED IN JUNE. TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED WITH CHRYSLER'S WARRANTY AND RECALL OF THEIR TIPM'S. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ ABOUT THEIR TIPM PROBLEMS, IT HAS SERIOUS POTENTIAL FOR INJURY. IT CAN QUIT TOTALLY ALL OF A SUDDEN SHUTTING DOWN ALL POWER AND STOPPING THE VEHICLE ON A BUSY HIGHWAY.

I HAVE A CHRYSLER 200 2011 WITH 67,000 MILES. THIS WINTER THE PASSENGER SIDE HEAT NO LONGER WORKS AT ALL, LEAVING ME WITHOUT DEFROST AS WELL. THIS ISSUE IS THE SAME WHETHER IN IDLE OR DRIVING. I HAVE HAD THE RADIATOR FLUSHED TWICE, THE THERMOSTAT REPLACED, FILTER REPLACED, ETC. THERE IS STILL NO RESOLUTION TO THE ISSUE AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD NOW THAT THE NEXT STEP IS REPLACING THE HEATER CORE AND THE RADIATOR ITSELF. I HAVE BEEN READING THE OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE WITH CHRYSLER AND CAN'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE AND HASN'T BEEN RECALLED YET. IS IT BECAUSE EVEN MOPAR TECHNICIANS CAN'T FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM? MY TECHNICIAN SAYS IT SEEMS LIKE HE'S CHASING A GHOST. THIS PROBLEM NEEDS FIXED AND CHRYSLER SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE! *TR

NO HEAT COMING FROM THE VENTS. DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS DURING COLD MONTHS. WINDOWS FOG UP AND BLOCKS THE WINDSHIELD. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND WIPE THE WINDSHIELDS EVERY DAY. ESPECIALLY ON MY 1 HOUR DRIVE TO WORK ON THE INTERSTATE. I ALSO HAD TO BUNDLE UP WHEN I DRIVE FROM NOVEMBER UNTIL MARCH. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONR BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED OR WORSE , KILLS SOMEONE ELSE. I CAN ONLY PUT IN 1 DATE BELOW BUT IT HAPPENS EVERY WINTER.

II'M STILL WAITING FOR OVER A YEAR TO GET MY CAR FIXED FOR AN AIRBAG RECALL

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR ALL OF A SUDDEN OUT OF THE BLUE IT WILL JUST DIES SOMETIMES AT 50 MILES AN HOUR SOMETIMES AT 75 MILES AN HOUR SOMETIMES AT 5 MILES AN HOUR JUST LEAVING A STOP SIGN NO FAIL CODES WHATSOEVER. AFTER ABOUT ONE OR TWO HOURS OF SITTING THE CAR STARTS RIGHT UP AND DRIVES GOOD UNTIL THE NEXT TIME IT DOES IT I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS BEEN HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE UNSAFE P.O.S.!

CAR STALLS WITHOUT MUCH WARNING WHILE DRIVING. ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, THEN A SLIGHT JERK OF THE VEHICLE, THEN POWER CUTS OUT. POWER STEERING LOSS,, RADIO DISPLAY GOES OUT AND HAZARDS WON'T WORK, WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS. IF I TURN THE KEY OFF, I CAN RESTART THE CAR AND DRIVE AGAIN, BUT IT HAPPENS EVERY FEW MINUTES. VERY SCARY TO BE DRIVING IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC AND HAVE THE CAR SIMPLY SHUT DOWN AND NOT BE ABLE TO AT LEAST SIGNAL OTHER DRIVERS WITH HAZARD FLASHERS. NOT A BATTERY OR ALTERNATOR ISSUE, AS THESE HAVE BEEN REPLACED. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT BECAUSE THE VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY JUST SHUTS DOWN. CAR IS CURRENTLY AT DEALERSHIP SINCE MECHANIC COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG.
