What owners wrote
My chrysler 200 started shutting itself off while driving. The lights and radio stay on but the brakes and steering are manual. The dealership informed me that I was low on oil and that the car is equipped with a safety feature to shut the car off when oil is low. This car is 10 mths old and only 11k miles. It continued after that visit and after shaming chrysler on twitter, they opted to replace the motor. The problem is this car shuts off while driving.
I purchased my vehicle brand new in 2017 and started experiencing issues within the first year. The car has cut off multiple times while driving, without warning, in the middle of rush hour traffic. It also frequently stalls. I've taken my vehicle to 3 different dealerships in 2 different states at least 10 times. Two of the three dealerships claimed that the problem was some sort of fuse underneath the driver's seat. After the car continued to shut off without warning, I was told that it was due to low oil.
