2012 CHRYSLER 200
This model year
What the record shows
The 2012 Chrysler 200 is a midsize car, and the 5th model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 2008 to 2018.
The EPA rated three configurations: engines from 2.4-litre four-cylinder to 3.6-litre six-cylinder, front-wheel drive only, two transmissions and running on regular gasoline.
Combined fuel economy ranges from 22 to 24 mpg depending on which one you have.
NHTSA's best overall crash rating for this model year is 4 out of five stars.
The federal record holds 637 owner complaints, 4 safety recalls and 112 service bulletins for it.
Counts are reports, not rates. A complaint is something an owner chose to file; it is unverified and unadjusted for how many of these cars were sold, so the useful comparison is against other model years of the same car. Recalls and investigations carry more weight because a manufacturer or regulator acted on them.
Reading this report
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
