2011 Chrysler 200 Powertrain (other) Problems

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.

Incident

Aug 21, 2025

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.

Car has been stalling during deceleration, braking and at stops. The issue was fixed only in one model when multiple years of this make and model was doing the same thing. The issue started in 2011 and was supposed to be addressed in 2012 but the actual recall to fix it was actually only for 2015 but I almost got into an accident by stalling. I bought the car & it started some days later in which the seller assumed it was fixed. After taking it to pep boys and getting other repairs it resulted in a $2k repair and its still stalling at stops and when slowing down. Why was the issue only fixed in 2015 models if it was made aware in 2011-2012? Those models would need that recall repair also. I have not been able to drive it continuously without it cutting off for a full day and nobody can figure out why because no codes are coming up. When researching I found a forum where it was suggested this was a major issue that was never rectified by Chrysler. They closed the investigation but did not service all cars with this issue.

On 4 occasion my vehicle stopped running on the road with no warning. Was unaware anything even happened until i stepped in the gas. Light still on, radio still on, no power steering. Difficult to get off road. Unable to start again for about 45 minutes. Had serviced every time this happened, no codes noted for anything wrong. Had multiple things replaced without resolution. Started investigating my self and see that 6/2012 investigation opened due to faulty PCM and closed on 9/2012 by NHTSA after an update and customer service satisfaction program for 2011-2013 models with 3.6L. I have never received any recall. I am afraid to put my children in my car anymore because you have no control of your vehicle when this happens. Why is this recall not available when I search for it? Thank you.

1) The engine suddenly cut off, power braking and power steering were gone. This happens randomly under any circumstances, with absolutely no precursors. The car will not start for about an hour, and after that time it starts with absolutely no issues, no check engine light, nothing. Yes, it is available for inspection upon request. 2) While driving on the highway at about 65mph, all power was lost, and ability to control the car was extremely limited, and this happened multiple times. Only by pure fortune I avoided a fatal crash when the car died in rush hour. 3) After the first time this has happened the car was taken to a mechanic, and they were not able to replicate the issue under any circumstances that they tried, and there was nothing wrong with the car that would warrant this, as it has never been in an accident, and was well maintained. 5) No, has not been inspected by anyone besides the standard state inspection and the mechanic that attempted to fix it. 6) There was never and still isn't anything wrong with the car that I know of, no weird noises, no engine light, no issues whatsoever besides it randomly dying and then coming back to life like nothing happened. ------------------------- As you may see, there are multiple cases of this happening and it was never adressed: https://www.carcomplaints.com/Chrysler/200/2011/engine/engine_dies_while_driving.shtml

THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME I DRIVE THE CAR. AS I'M SLOWING UP TO TURN, OR COMING UP ON A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT, THE CAR TENDS TO START STALLING. IF I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL BEFORE STEPPING ON THE BREAKS, IT DOESN'T DO IT. BUT IF I DON'T PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL IT WILL STALL & THE RPM WILL DROP TO 0 & THE CAR WILL CUT OFF.

WHEN MY CAR GOES BETWEEN 60 AND 70 MPH THE CAR SHAKES AND THE RPMS JUMP TO ABOUT 4 TO KEEP THE CAR AT THE SPEED I NEED IT ON HIGH WAYS. MY MECHANIC SAID IT WAS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR THIS CAR AND YEAR. BUT HE COULD NOT FIND A RECALL. HE SAID THAT THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NEED RESET BY A DEALER. WHICH IS NOT CHEAP.

THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HAS ALWAYS SHIFTED HARD AND NOW THE TRANSMISSION IS HAVING A HARD TIME SHIFTING INTO THE NEXT GEAR, IT REVS UP AND I HAVE TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF OF THE GAS IN ORDER FOR IT TO SHIFT. THIS SEEMS TO ONLY HAPPEN IN THE LOWER GEARS. ONCE I'M ABOVE 30 ITS FINE. THE CODE THAT JUST CAME ON IS LOW TRANSMISSION FLUID PRESSURE.

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.

MY 2011 200 GAVE NO SIGNS OF HAVING ANY PROBLEMS, STARTED RIGHT UP ON THE FIRST KEY TURN, I WENT TO GO LEAVE THE PARKING LOT OF WHERE I WAS BUT AS I PULLED OUT ONTO THE BUSY ROAD AND STARTED ACCELERATING, THE CAR STOPPED GOING FASTER AND INSTEAD STARTED TO ONLY REV AS I PUSHED ON THE GAS PEDAL. CARS WERE APPROACHING BEHIND ME SO I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, JUST IN TIME FOR MY CAR TO INDICATE IT SWITCHED ITSELF INTO REVERSE. AT THIS POINT I START PANICKING UNSURE WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT. MY CAR WAS AT ABOUT 5 MPH AT THIS POINT WHEN THE ENGINE JUST DIED. THE ELECTRONICS WORKED FOR A WHILE, UNTIL THE BATTERY DIED, BUT THE ENGINE HAD NO HOPE IN BEING STARTED, EVEN WITH A JUMP. AFTER BEING TAKEN TO THE SHOP I WAS TOLD THE ALTERNATOR HAD FAILED WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND THAT THE MECHANIC HAD BURNT HIS HAND WHILE CHECKING IT. THEY ALSO MENTIONED SOMETHING ABOUT THE GROUND NOT BEING IN PLACE. THE CAR HAD ONLY BEEN ON FOR MINUTES, AND HAS LESS THEN 32000 MILES ON IT. KNOWING CHRYSLER HAD A RECALL ON ALTERNATORS IN THE PAST I CONTACT THEM FIRST BUT THEY GAVE ME THE RUN AROUND, AND STILL ARE GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND, BUT I BELIEVE THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE GOING ON WITH MY VEHICLE THEN THEY ARE LETTING ME KNOW AS THEY MENTIONED THE DEALERSHIP HAD BEEN EMAILING THE ENGINEERS IN REGARDS TO MY CAR. I DON'T FEEL SAFE PUTTING MY 15 MONTH OLD SON IN THIS CAR, LET ALONE MYSELF IN THIS CAR. THIS CAR IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD AND STILL HAS LOW MILEAGE, AND I'VE TAKEN CARE OF IT LIKE A BABY. THERE WERE NO WARNING SIGNS OF ANYTHING WRONG, AND NO REASON FOR ANYTHING TO FAIL UNLESS IT WAS SOMETHING INTERNAL AND THAT LEAVES ME UNKNOWING IF IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN, AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT.

I BOUGHT MY 200S TO COMMUTE BACK AND FORTH TO WORK. I DRIVE 114 MILES A DAY. THIS CAR HAS BECOME VERY UNSAFE. *DO NOT BUY THIS CAR* IT WAS AN OK CAR UNTIL RECENTLY. 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 3 WEEKS MY CAR HAS STALLED OUT. EVERY TIME IT STALLS OUT I LOOSE BREAK AND SEARING FUNCTIONALITY. VERY DANGEROUS. TWICE IT HAS STALLED OUT WHILE COMING TO A STOP IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. I LOST THE ABILITY TO CONTROL MY CAR WHILE ON A MAJOR HWY 45 IN HOUSTON. NOT A PLACE YOU WANT TO BE AND FEEL HELPLESS. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO QUICKLY SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL AND RESTART THE VEHICLE BEFORE I GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT. THE THIRD TIME WAS A LOT CLOSER CALL. MY CAR STALLED OUT WHILE I WAS SLOWING DOWN ON A HWY TO HWY ON RAMP. (ALMOST CAUSING ME TO HIT THE LANE DIVIDER) I HAD TO USE MY EMERGENCY BREAK AND ALL MY STRENGTH TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE AND BRING IT TO A STOP. AT THAT POINT I HAD CARS BACKING UP BEHIND ME AND HONKING. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR AND DRIVE AWAY. (THIS COULD HAVE GONE A MUCH DIFFERENT WAY. ON A SINGLE LANE ON RAMP FROM BELTWAY 8 TO HWY 249 4-5 STORIES IN THE AIR WITH CARS ALL MOVING AT 45-65 MPH MY CAR STALLED IN A 90 DEGREE TURN. I'M LUCKY I'M NOT DEAD.) I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC SHOP BUT THEY CAN NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. IT IS NOT CAUSING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON AND NOT THROWING ANY CODES.

OVER THE PAST 4 MONTHS, OUR PARENTS VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICING 6 TIMES DUE TO THE VEHICLE BEING COMPLETELY DEAD. THE CAR NEVER SAT LONGER THAN 2 - 3 DAYS WITHOUT BEING DRIVEN. THEY WERE TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS DUE TO THE LICENSE PLATE LIGHT, THEN THE GLOVE BOX LIGHT NOT TURNING OFF, THEN THEY WEREN'T SURE. ON 2/26, THE VEHICLE WOULD ONLY START AND RUN, WHILE CONNECTED TO THE JUMPER. THE DEALERSHIP TOOK THE CAR IN AND HAD IT FOR 2 FULL WEEKS. THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. MOM & DAD PICKED UP THE VEHICLE ON MARCH 14TH, NO EXPLANATION AS TO THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. WENT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP ON MARCH 19TH TO FIND OUT IF ANY FURTHER INFORMATION HAD BEEN DETERMINED... NOTHING! THEY WERE THEN ADVISED THE CAR HAS TO BE DRIVEN ALL THE TIME, TO AVOID DYING BECAUSE THE COMPUTER SYSTEM NEVER SHUTS OFF AND THEREFORE, DRAINS THE BATTERY WHEN THE CAR IS IDLE. THEY WERE FURTHER ADVISED TO PURCHASE AND USE A BATTERY TENDER TRICKLE CHARGER AND TO KEEP IT CONNECTED TO THE VEHICLE WHENEVER THE VEHICLE IS NOT IN OPERATION. THIS IS VERY INCONVENIENT AS OUR PARENTS ARE IN THEIR 80'S AND DON'T GET AROUND SO EASY ANYMORE. THIS IS NOT AN ACCEPTABLE SOLUTION. THEY'VE HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR ALMOST 4 YEARS, IF THE COMPUTER ISSUE AS DESCRIBED BY THE DEALER WERE ACCURATE, WHY DID IT WORK PROPERLY FOR THE FIRST 3.5 YEARS AND NOW HAS ISSUES? THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY HOWEVER, WITHOUT ACCURATE DIAGNOSIS, NOTHING IS BEING DONE. THE LAST COMMUNICATION WE'VE HAD WITH THE DEALER WAS FRIDAY MARCH 27TH. TELLING US IF THE CAR DOESN'T DIE AGAIN BY THIS COMING FRIDAY (APRIL 3, 2015), THEY'LL BE CLOSING THE CASE. THE PROBLEM HAS NOT YET BEEN DIAGNOSED OR RESOLVED. IS THERE ANYTHING WE CAN DO, ANY INFORMATION YOU CAN PROVIDE, TO HELP OUR PARENTS GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED? *TR
