What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 chrysler 200. While driving at an unknown speed, the headlights and tail lights became inoperable. The mechanic replaced the headlamp bulbs. Additionally, while attempting to reverse out of the driveway, the vehicle independently accelerated and crashed into a fire hydrant. The contact was not injured. A police report was not filed. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer to be diagnosed, but the mechanic was unable to retrieve a fault code. The vehicle was not repaired.
While driving on an unlit 2 lane road I experienced ( the first of several instances) the most dangerous automobile lighting conditions of my 50 years of driving. Trust me this is scary! The headlights have a shutter system for normal and bright headlight control that is so bad I felt the need to pull off of the road to consider continuing my travel.
