NHTSA Complaint about VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL filed April 16, 2019
NHTSA complaint #1558511 (ODI reference 11196785) concerns a 2015 CHRYSLER 200 and was filed on April 16, 2019. The owner reports the failure occurred on April 15, 2019. The vehicle had 55,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Colorado based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as vehicle speed control, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same CHRYSLER 200 cohort independently describe similar vehicle speed control failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2015 CHRYSLER 200 shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
WHILE DRIVING THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WENT OUT. SPEEDOMETER AND ALL ELECTRONICS AND DISPLAYS WENT OUT. I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE HIGHWAY AND TURN OFF THE CAR AND BACK ON AND THE DISPLAY WENT BACK ON. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID THE CODES THAT CAME UP ARE INCONCLUSIVE. THIS IS THE 4TH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED AND IT SEEMS TO ONLY HAPPEN DURING WARM OR HOT WEATHER. THIS IS VERY CONCERNING WHILE DRIVING. SEARCHING VARIOUS FORMS, IT SEEMS THIS IS AN ISSUE OTHER CHRYSLER DRIVERS HAVE EXPERIENCED.
