Official NHTSA safety recall2015Undersized door wiring may overheat and melt insulation
NHTSA campaign 14V480000 lists the 2015 Chrysler 200 for a condition in which undersized door wiring may overheat and melt insulation.
NHTSA lists the 2015 Chrysler 200 in safety campaign 14V480000. The official record says: The affected vehicles may have been built with a driver side door wiring harness of an insufficient wire gauge, resulting in excessive heat which may melt the wiring insulation. The stated safety consequence is: Excessive heat and melting wiring insulation may result in an electrical short, increasing the risk of a fire. A make, model and year match does not confirm that a specific VIN is included or that the repair remains open.
Symptoms to compare
- The driver side door wiring may become excessively hot
- Wiring insulation may melt or short circuit
Other ways owners describe it: 2015 Chrysler 200 door wiring overheats; Chrysler 200 melted door wire insulation; Chrysler 200 driver door electrical short; 200 electrical system and wiring recall; NHTSA campaign 14V480000.

Confirm who pays before authorizing work
A recall remedy follows the campaign and VIN eligibility. A service bulletin provides diagnosis or repair instructions; it does not by itself promise payment. Manufacturer warranty extensions and support programs have their own conditions.

What can the data tell you about Chrysler 200?
No model-specific individual-repair price keys are retained for Chrysler 200 in this library. Generic parts and labor estimates, public records and separate annual cost references may still be available.
An unmatched specification is an information gap. Do not borrow an engine or drivetrain from another year.
Recall and communication counts describe records. They cannot establish a breakdown probability or current VIN status.
