What's wrong?
The Power Distribution Center on the 2015 Chrysler 200 is the electrical hub that routes battery power to vehicle circuits through protected connections. Think of it as the main power junction for many electrical components, with connectors that need firm contact so each circuit receives steady power.
On affected 200 sedans, the electrical connector at the Power Distribution Center can lose consistent contact. When that connection opens and closes, power to some electrical components drops out instead of staying steady. The recall points to the connector as the problem, not a failed battery or a worn switch.
There is no warning sign before failure. An owner first notices the issue when an affected electrical component loses power or acts intermittently during use.

What's the safety risk?
An intermittent power loss can shut off electrical components and make the vehicle stall without warning, increasing crash risk. There is no warning sign before the stall, so schedule the repair soon and treat any loss of power as a reason to pull over safely and call the dealer. Repair is free at any franchised Chrysler dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2015 Chrysler 200 is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Chrysler dealer to schedule the free electrical-connector or wiring-harness repair that fixes intermittent power loss to electrical components.
- Bring the recall notice if Chrysler has mailed one. If not, reference recall number 15V470 and Chrysler recall R24 when you call.
- Drive cautiously until the repair is complete; leave extra following distance and be prepared for a stall without warning.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Chrysler technician replaces the C4 connector using a 12 wire split kit on 3.6L engines, or replaces the transmission wiring harness on 2.4L engines. The recall repair is free, with parts and labor covered. Chrysler says owners who already paid to fix the same problem can request reimbursement under its standard policy. Send the original receipt or other proof of payment to the company as directed in the owner letter so Chrysler can confirm the expense.
