2006 Dodge Charger complaints

RUNNING HOT. REPLACED CAN MOTORS THERMOSTAT RADIATOR WATER PUMP

AFTER DROPPING MY DAUGHTER AT SCHOOL THAT DAY IN MY CAR, I WENT HOME AND PARKED THE VEHICLE IN MY DRIVEWAY. WHEN I WENT TO PICK HER UP THAT AFTERNOON MY CAR WOULD NOT TURN OVER. IT NEVER LEFT MY DRIVEWAY BEFORE IT WAS TOWED TO A MECHANIC. DODGE HEMI 5.7 L ARE NOTORIOUS FOR PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE DUE TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. THE VALVE SEAT DROPS INTO THE PISTON CAUSING CATASTROPHIC AND SUDDEN ENGINE FAILURE. THE REASON FOR MY COMPLAINT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE COST INVOLVED TO REPLACE MY TRANSPORTATION. THE DAMAGE HAS BEEN SAID AND DONE. THE REASON FOR THIS COMPLAINT IS THE THOUGHT THAT MY CAR'S ENGINE HAPPENED TO FAIL MINUTES BEFORE MY DAUGHTER WAS IN THE CAR. HONESTLY, IF THE ENGINE FAILURE WOULD HAVE HAPPENED WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION, WHETHER IT BE IT IN A 20 MPH SCHOOL ZONE OR ON THE FREEWAY AT 70 MPH TO HER FAVORITE STORE TO GET A TREAT AFTER SCHOOL; I PROBABLY WOULD'VE NOT KNOWN WHAT TO DO. THIS DEFECT COULD HAVE VERY WELL CAUSED A WRECK HURTING ME MY EIGHT-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER AND POSSIBLY OTHER PEOPLE. I TRULY JUST DON'T WANT THIS TO HAPPEN TO SOMEONES LITTLE GIRL OR ANYBODY. CAN YOU PLEASE RESEARCH AND INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED OR HURT? IT'S JUST NOT RIGHT AND DODGE IS HOLDING NO RESPONSIBILITY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

THE VEHICLE IS STUCK IN PARK THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED TO MANY OTHER DODGE AND CHRYSLER CARS. THERE IS A LIMITED RECALL BUT DOES NOT APPLY TO MY VIN I HAVE SPOKEN WITH FCA US LLS AND FILED A COMPLAINT THIS ISSUE IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE IF YOU HAPPEN TO PARK ON A ROADSIDE AND CANT GET IT TO GO INTO GEAR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE CHARGER. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE GEAR SHIFTER FAILED TO SHIFT FROM THE PARK POSITION WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT CALLED GROGAN'S TOWNE CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM AT 419-476-0761 (LOCATED AT 6100 TELEGRAPH RD, TOLEDO, OH 43612) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS.

STALLS AND DIES AFTER FUELING UP. CAN DIE RIGHT IN AN INTERSECTION OR THE HIGHWAY. YOU LOSE POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKING.

I WAS IN LINE AT TIM HORTON'S, I HAD ORDERED, BUT NOT YET PAID. I HAD MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE (CAR WAS STATIONARY), AND THE AS THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME MOVED UP, I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE TO ROLL THE CAR FORWARD. THE CAR BEGAN ACCELERATING ON IT'S OWN. WITH MY FOOT STILL ON THE BRAKE, I PUSHED THE BRAKE TO THE FLOOR AT WHICH POINT THE ABS STRUGGLED TO SLOW THE ACCELERATION DOWN. THE RESULT OF THE INCIDENT IS MY CAR ONLY CAME TO A STOP ONCE I HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I LOOKED DOWN ONCE THE CAR STOPPED MOVING AND CLEARLY ONLY SAW MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE WITH THE BRAKE PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. LUCKILY THE ONLY REAL DAMAGE WAS SOME FLAKED PAINT ON THE FRONT OF MY CAR. THE OTHER CAR, AS WELL AS MYSELF DECIDED THE ISSUE WAS NOT WORTH REPORTING TO THE INSURANCE COMPANIES. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED MY DAD, WHO TOLD ME TO CALL THE DEALER. I THEN CALLED THE DEALER WHOM SAID DO NOT DRIVE THE CAR, AND GET THE CAR TOWED TO THEM FOR DIAGNOSIS. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DODGE/JEEP DEALERSHIP IN WHICH I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2007. THIS ISSUE HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE, IN THE 11 YEARS I'VE OWNED THE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2006 DODGE CHARGER. WHILE IDLING AT A STOP SIGN, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY AND STRUCK THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED TO A TOW YARD. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 140,000.

MY 2006 DODGE CHARGER RT WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM WITH 2006 CHARGERS AND "SOME" 2006 MODELS ARE COVERED UNDER A RECALL "K39." IT SEEMS LIKE MY 2006 CHARGER IS ONE OF THE 2006 CHARGERS THAT ISN'T COVERED FOR SOME REASON. I CHECKED MY VIN ON YOUR WEBSITE AND THE RECALL DOESN'T SHOW. THIS HAPPENED IN MY DRIVEWAY. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED. THANKS

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR LOSES POWER AND SLOWS DOWN, THE ENGINE IS RUNNING ROUGH AND WHEN PULLED OVER THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE AT ALL. THE SHIFTER WILL MOVE THROUGH THE GEARS HOWEVER THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE(AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION). AFTER TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTING THE CAR RUNS NORMAL UNTIL THE NEXT EPISODE( OCCURRED THE LAST 3 TIMES CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN). THIS IS HAZARDOUS ESPECIALLY IN TRAFFIC. CURRENTLY SETTING UP APPOINTMENT WITH DODGE DEALERSHIP TO ADDRESS PROBLEM HOWEVER NO CAUTION LIGHT IS APPEARING ON THE DASH. THIS MALFUNCTION HAPPENS AT ANY SPEED ON HIGHWAY OR CITY STREET.

I PARKED VEHICLE. WHEN I STEPPED ON THE BRAKE TO SHIFT THE GEAR, IT WOULD NOT MOVE. ALSO WHEN I BLOW THE HORN IT GETS STUCK OR DOES NOT WORK AT ALL AFTER AIRBAGS WERE REPLACED BECAUSE OF RECALL. CAR HAS BEEN SITTING IN A PARKING LOT SINCE.

THE CAR STALLS AFTER FILLING UP THE FUEL TANK. DODGE HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THESE TANKS BUT SAYS MY CAR IS NOT COVERED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, I HAVE HAD IT STALL ON THE HIGHWAY AND IN TRAFFIC. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS ISN'T A SAFETY RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE CHARGER. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE CHECK ENGINE AND OIL WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED AS THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURES LASTED FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. LANDERS CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (315 GOODMAN RD E, SOUTHAVEN, MS 38671, (662) 349-3006) WAS CALLED AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FAILURE COULD BE DUE TO A FAILURE WITH THE TCM, ECM, OR PCM. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 172,000.

THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF RANDOMLY, THE ERROR CODE KEEPS POINTING BACK TO THE ECM AND I HAVE HAD THAT REPLACED NOW IT IS DOING IT AGAIN AND THERE IS NO WARNING WHEN IT HAPPENS ON THE FREEWAY IT JOLTS LIKE IT WANTS TO SHUTOFF BUT IT DOESN'T THE RPM'S GO DOWN AND IT REVS BACK UP, IT STARTED JUST WITH IT HAVING THE RPM'S GO DOWN AND REV BACK UP RANDOMLY AND ITS BEEN HAPPENING FOR 2 YEARS NOW IT JUST SHUTS OFF AND STARTS BACK UP IMMEDIATELY BUT SOMETIMES ILL DRIVE A COUPLE FEET AND IT WILL DIE AGAIN. IT HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP FOR THE LAST 8 MONTHS. THEY HAVE SENT THE COMPUTER BACK TO HAVE IT ANALYSED AND TO REPAIR THE NEW ONE I GOT NOW. WHEN DRIVING IT ALSO SHUTS OFF AND THEN JUST STARTS UP BACK BY ITSELF. I SEE THIS EVERYWHERE ON THE INTERNET AND FORUMS, SOME SAY ECM NEEDS TO BE REPLACED OTHER SAY THE FUEL TANK AND THE OTHER SAYS SOMETHING ABOUT THE KEY FOB NOT RECOGNIZING THE KEY. I WANT THIS INVESTIGATED AND A RECALL TO BE ISSUED. FROM EVERYONE I HAVE SPOKEN TO EVERY SINGLE 2006 DODGE CHARGER HAS THIS PROBLEM WITH THE 5.7 LT WITH THE HEMI.

TRANSMISSION AND CAR COMPUTER ARE NOT WORKING TOGETHER PROPERLY, MAKING THE TRANSMISSION SHUT OFF AS I DRIVE THE CAR. CAN HAPPEN AT A RED LIGHT, IN THE HIGHWAY, EVEN WHEN IT'S PARKED. BROUGHT IT TO SEVERAL MECHANICS NO ONE COULD FIX IT. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CLAIM NO OPEN RECALL BUT YET THE CAR ONLY HAS 89K MILES. WAS BUILT WRONG OFF THE LINE IF YOU ASK ME.

I BEEN ONLINE LOOKING FOR THIS KINDA PROBLEM AND IT LOOKS LIKE EVERYONE HAS THIS PROBLEM BUT THERE IS NOT RECALL AND THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, CAN WHENEVER YOU FILL UP THE TANK AND THE LEVEL FROM THE GAS SHUTS OFF ON IT'S OWN, MEANING NOT OVERFILLING. THE CAR STALLS AT LOT IN LOW RPMS AND HESITATES ALOT, CAR SHUTS OFF AND STEERING WHEEL LOCK MAKING THIS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, TANK IS 19 GALLOS, ONCE YOU WASTE 1-2 GALLOS OF GAS EVERYTHING GOES BACK TO NORMAL, HAVE CHANGE ALREADY PURGE VALVE IN FRONT OF THE CAR, ALSO THE EVAP LEAK DETECTION PUMP AND NOTHING, EVERYONE ONLINE HAS THIS PROBLEM AND NO ONE HAS A FIXED. NO ENGINE LIGHTS COMES ON, SOMETIMES A MISFIRE, CHANGED MAP SENSOR, CAMSHAFT SENSOR, CRANK SENSOR, MASS AIRFLOW SENSOR, SPARK PLUGS WIRES, INJECTORS AND PLUGS AND STILL THE SAME. WHEN I RUN TORQUE APP FROM ANDROID STORE IT SAYS EVAP CAP OFF ON RED, LIKE THAT TEST IT NEVER PASS. SOMETHING WITH GAS RELATED I GUESS

ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING

CANNOT SHIFT VEHICLE OUT OF PARK.

ON THE NIGHT OF JUNE 3, 2016 I PARKED MY 2006 DODGE CHARGER R/T IN MY DRIVE AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT AN HOUR. I WENT BACK OUT TO LEAVE AGAIN AND THE CAR WOULD NOT START. AFTER CHECKING FOR ANY COMPUTER ISSUES I HAD THE CAR TOWED MY THE DEALERSHIP. THEY PERFORMED TESTS AND DETERMINED THAT MY INTAKE VALVE SEAT IN MY #1 CYLINDER DROPPED AND CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STOP RUNNING. THE DEALERSHIP WANTED TO CHARGE ME $3200 TO REPLACE THE CYLINDER HEAD. I CHOSE NOT TO HAVE THEM PERFORM THE WORK, INSTEAD I REMOVED THE CYLINDER HEAD AND TOOK IT TO A LOCAL MACHINE SHOP WHERE THE FIXED THE ISSUE ON THE CYLINDER HEAD AND I WAS ABLE TO INSTALL IT BACK INTO MY VEHICLE AND GET IT RUNNING AGAIN. THIS ISSUE STILL COST ME OVER $1200.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE CHARGER. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND CONTINUE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (NISSAN BROS NISSAN, 5750 MESMER AVE, STE. A, CULVER CITY, CA 90230) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VAPOR RECOVERING SYSTEM FAILED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED PER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE UNKNOWN. *TT *TR CONSUMER STATED UPON REFUELING AND PULLING OUT OF THE GAS STATION, CONSUMER'S CAR STARTED TO STRUGGLE WITH POWER, THE POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES SEEMED TO BE SEVERLY REDUCED, AND THEN THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN. HAPPENED SECOND TIME. CONSUMER GOOGLED AND FOUND "2006 DODGE CHARGER STALLS AFTER FUELING" UPDATED 9/4/18*JB

MY 2006 CHARGER RT JUST STOPS FOR NO REASON WHEN I'M AT A RED LIGHT OR AS SIMPLE AS A STOP.CANT FIND A RECALL IT'S VERY DANGEROUS DON'T KNOW WHY IT'S NOT A RECALL. I TOOK IT TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AND THEY COUNT FIND A THE PROBLEM AND GAVE UP AND GAVE THE CAR BACK.

2006 DODGE CHARGER DAYTONA R/T 5.7 HEMI VALVE SEAT DROPPED AT 144K MILES. ALWAYS DEALER SERVICED. ALWAYS ON SCHEDULE, PLUGS, OIL AIR FILTER EVERYTHING. ISSUE LEADING UP TO IT WAS RANDOM MULTIPLE CYLINDER MISFIRE STEMMING FROM FAULTY WATER TEMP SENSOR, WHICH WAS FIXED. DROPPED VALVE SEAT WHEN BRIEFLY TURNING OF VEHICLE AFTER DROPPING FAMILY HOME PRIOR TO GOING TO WORK. MOTOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. JUST PRIOR TO FAILURE SPENT AROUND $4K TO MAKE SURE THE CAR WAS RUNNING PERFECT. MECHANIC HAD TOLD ME THE CAR WAS IN PERFECT RUNNING ORDER AND COMPRESSION WAS LIKE IT WAS ALMOST BRAND NEW. ENGINE SHOULD HAVE EASILY MADE IT TO 250K MILES. CONTACTED CHRYSLER WHO PRETTY MUCH LIED AND TOLD ME THIS WAS NOT A COMMON OCCURRENCE. DEALER WAS NOT WILLING TO HELP ME TOWARDS THE REPAIR. IF THIS VALVE SEAT DROPPED 30 SECONDS EARLIER, IT WOULD HAVE LOCKED UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY PUTTING THE LIVES OF MY FAMILY AND MYSELF AT RISK. THIS IS A WIDESPREAD AND KNOWN ISSUE AND CHRYSLER IS NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THIS IS A DISGRACE.

WE HAVE A 2006 DODGE CHARGER RT DAYTONA 'TOP BANANA'. CAR WAS DRIVING FINE TIL ONE DAY MY MOM DROVE HOME FROM TRAIN STATION (LESS THAN 5 MILES). SHE WENT IN TO CHANGE CLOTHES THEN WENT TO LEAVE AGAIN. CAR WOULDN'T START UP, LOUD BANGING NOISE COMING FROM UNDER HOOD AS WELL AS ENGINE APPEARED TO BE SHAKING VIOLENTLY. HAD TOWED TO SHOP. ONCE THERE, CAR STARTED TO SMOKE AND SHOP SAID THERE WAS HOLE IN THE PISTON AND ENGINE COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. SHOP ESTIMATE WAS 7,000 TOTAL. COULD NOT AFFORD AT THE TIME SO THE CAR SAT IN OUR DRIVEWAY FOR MONTHS.CAR JUST HAD NEW REBUILT ENGINE, AS WELL AS NEW INTAKE MANIFOLDWATER PUMP, AND OTHER NEW PARTS THAT WERE DAMAGED DUE TO THE ENGINE . I WILL INCLUDE PHOTOS OF THE ENGINE ETC.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE CHARGER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR CONDITIONING WENT OUT IN THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. DURING THAT TIME, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE THERMOSTAT WAS LEAKING ANTIFREEZE. THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT CERTAIN VEHICLES WERE ON A RECALL LIST FOR THE THERMOSTAT. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 141,050.

THE CAR STALLED AS I WAS DRIVING. I HAVE LOOKED UP THIS ISSUE BEFORE AND PEOPLE HAVE SAID IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE FUEL TANK. A DEALERSHIP HAS REPLACED THE FUEL TANK A FEW MONTHS BACK AND TODAY IT STALLED AGAIN. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE REPLACING THE FUEL TANK. IT APPEARS THIS IS A BIGGER PROBLEM THAN JUST THE FUEL TANK. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL PLACED BEFORE PEOPLE ARE SERIOUSLY HURT AND/OR KILLED. THE CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. IF IT IS ON THE FREEWAY THEN IT'LL BE CATASTROPHIC ON WHAT CAN HAPPEN. THE CAR ALSO LOSES STEERING WHEN IT SHUTS OFF CAUSING A BIGGER PROBLEM.

EVERY TIME I GET GAS AND START THE ENGINE, IT JERKS AND DIES AFTER DRIVING A FEW HUNDRED FEET. I START IT AGAIN AND IT KEEPS DOING THE SAME THING REPEATEDLY. I'M AFRAID TO PULL INTO TRAFFIC BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO JUST STOP RUNNING. I FEEL THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION. IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS NOW. LAST NIGHT WAS THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE.

THERE IS DETERIORATION IN THE UPPER PARTS OF THE FILLER PIPE. THE VENT (CAN'T RECALL THE PROPER NAME) CAUSES THE SENSORS TO THINK THAT GAS IS OVERFILLING WHICH SHUTS OFF THE CAR (LIKE SOME CARS THAT WILL NOT START IF THE GAS CAP IS NOT ON COMPLETELY.) REPLACING THIS PART WILL NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM LONG TERM.

LEAVING WORK ONE DAY AND STOPPED AT THE GAS STATION TO FILL UP THE TANK. I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND GOT OUT TO PUMP THE GAS. ONCE I FILLED UP MY TANK I GET BACK IN THE CAR TRIED TO START THE CAR AND IT WOULD NOT START.

EVERY TIME I FILL CAR WITH FUEL RIGHT AFTER FUELING IT DIES . SOMETIMES 2-3 TIMES. CAN BE HARD TO RESTART. ALREADY REPLACED EVAP SOLENOID DID NOT CORRECT. THIS IS KNOW ISSUE WITH FCA VIN RANGE SHOULD BE EXPANDED.

VEHICLE STALLS AFTER FILLING UP, ESPECIALLY ON TURNS AT SLOW SPEED. IT HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES INTERMITTENTLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE CHARGER. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL SHOOK VIOLENTLY. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE CONTACT HEARD A CLICKING NOISE UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF, AND RESTARTED IT AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HENDRICK DODGE (81 MACKENAN DR, CARY NC 27511, (919) 439-5394) WHERE AN ALIGNMENT WAS COMPLETED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STEERING COLUMN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 300,000.

AFTER EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE GAS (NOT TOP OFF)THE CAR STALLS OUT

AFTER I FILLED UP ON GAS I DROVE OUT OF THE STATION AND A BLOCK LATER WHILE TRAVELING 35 MPH MY CAR COMPLETELY TURNED OFF AND THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON. I COULD NOT STEER OR BRAKE. I GOT OUT OF THE ROAD PUT IT IN PARK AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. I DECIDED TO DRIVE TWO BLOCKS FARTHER TO THE OIL CHANGE PLACE AND IT DID IT AGAIN JUST DIED WHILE DRIVING DOWN A BUSY STREET BUT STARTED RIGHT UP. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO COULD NOT FIND ANY CODES OR ANY PROBLEMS.

CAR CONTINUES TO CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING, MAKES A LOT NOISE AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON DASH CUT ON AND DOES NOT MOVE WHEN IN GEAR.

FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF MONTHS WHEN I FILL UP OR TOP OFF IN GAS, AS SOON AS I START TO DRIVE THE CAR EITHE STALLS OR COMPLETELY CUT NOT WHILE DRIVING. I'M BIEBER HAS HAPPENED WHILE IN THE HIGHWAY AFTER FUELING UP AS WELL AS ON THE CITY STREETS. DUE THIS MALFUNCTION, I HAVE ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED.

MY DODGE CHARGER CUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING OR WHILE SITTING AT STOP LIGHTS. I AM ABLE TO START UP AGAIN BUT THEN IT SHUTS OFF AT THE NEXT STOP LIGHT OR WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. THERE IS NO TROUBLE CODES OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS.

AFTER FILLING UP, MY CAR ENGINE STALLS. I TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD CHRYSLER KNOWS ABOUT IT. I LOOKED IT UP ON YOUR SITE AND INDEED FOUND PE13016 BUT DISAGREE WITH THE FINDING BEING THAT IT IS A LOW SAFETY ISSUE. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES WHERE I WOULD BE IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC AND THE ENGINE STALLS AND SHUTS OFF AND THE STEERING LOCKS UP WHERE I CAN'T STEER THE CAR WHATSOEVER. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT IT WAS DUE TO A FUEL VAPOR LOCK IN WHICH THE EVAP VALVE STAYS OPEN AND DUE TO IT, THE ENGINE RUNS RICH BECAUSE OF THE FUEL. I WAS TOLD NOT TO OVERFILL IN WHICH I HAVE STOPPED, HOWEVER, THIS HAPPENS JUST BY FILLING UP. I HAVE HAD TO REV THE ENGINE TO BURN OFF GAS UNTIL THE ENGINE STOPS STALLING. EVERY TIME, I'VE STOPPED TRAFFIC IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND IT HAS HAPPENED AT NIGHT AS WELL WHERE VISIBILITY IS LOW AND ALMOST GOT HIT BECAUSE MY CAR STALLED. IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED RIGHT BEFORE TURNING IN A BUSY INTERSECTION AND THANKFUL THAT IT HAPPENED RIGHT BEFORE I MADE THE TURN. EVERY TIME IT HAS HAPPENED I'VE BEEN IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET AND A FEW TIMES ON A HIGHWAY BUT EVERY TIME I WAS ABOUT TO TURN. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, I DIDN'T KNOW AND GOT THE TOW TRUCK TO TOW THE CAR AND HAD THE POLICE TO COME BEHIND ME BECAUSE IN HIS WORDS, I WAS IN AN UNSAFE LOCATION, SO THAT NO OTHER ONCOMING VEHICLES WOULD HIT ME. THE DATE THAT I PLACED ON WHEN IT HAPPENED IS THE LAST DATE IT HAS HAPPENED THUS FAR AS OF THIS WRITING.

SHORTLY AFTER FILL UP THE CAR WILL DIE. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AFTER FILLING UP AND IT HAS HAPPENED AFTER MULTIPLE FILL UPS. THE CAR WILL START MOVING AND I WILL BEGIN DRIVING WHEN THE CAR DIES AND I LOSE POWER STEERING. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND THEY SAID THAT IT IS A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE WITH 2006 DODGE CHARGERS. THE FUEL TANK AND THE EVAP CANISTER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

" TAKATA RECALL" BOUGHT MY 2006 DODGE CHARGER LAST MARCH HAD IT FOR 3 DAYS THE ENGINE BLEW. REPLACED THE ENGINE WITH A V6 2008 2.7 WITH ONLY 57000 . ABOUT 6 MONTHS AFTER STARTED TO GET THE LIGHTNING BOLT .THEN STALLING WITH THE LIGHTNING BOLT WHILE DRIVING 55MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND IN THE CITY IT ALSO DOES IT AT STOP SIGNS AND SOMETIMES WONT START BACK RIGHT AWAY.. I HAVE NO CODES NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NO WARNING. MY DASH LIGHTS AND HEAD LIGHTS FLICKER ESPECIALLY WHILE DRIVING. WE TRIED EVERYTHING TO FIX THIS I'M VERY SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR ANYWHERES.. PLEASE HELP FIGURE OUT WHATS GOING ON WITH THESE PROBLEMS. WE ALREADY REPLACED THE COMPUTER, GAS PEDAL, SENSORS AND THE ENGINE. MILEAGE ON THE BODY 260000 ON THE SECOND ENGINE 63000.

THERE IS SOMETHING GOING ON WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WHICH CAUSES THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER TO COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AND LIGHTS TO FLICKER WHEN DRIVING. USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN CAR HEATER IS ON OR DRIVING FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME. I HAVE A VIDEO OF THE ISSUE AND SHOWED IT TO CERRITOS DODGE SERVICE DEPARTMENT BUT THEY DIDNT ACKNOWLEDGE ISSUE.

THE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM WAS DEFECTIVE AND FAILED TO RECOGNIZE A PASSENGER WAS SEATED IN THE FRONT SEAT DURING A CRASH. AS A RESULT, THE PASSENGER'S AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY IN A SEVERE FRONTAL IMPACT COLLISION. THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A SEVERE, DIRECT FRONTAL IMPACT WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE IMPACT WAS SEVERE, DEFORMED FRAME RAILS AND WAS DIRECTLY FRONTAL. THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG DEPLOYED, BUT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE PASSENGER, AN ADULT FEMALE, WAS BELTED BUT HER HEAD HIT THE DASH IN THE AREA OF THE AIRBAG FLAP AND SHE SUFFERED FATAL HEAD INJURIES. THE ECM WAS DOWNLOADED AND REVEALED THE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM HAD FAILED TO RECOGNIZE A PASSENGER WAS IN THE FRONT SEAT AT THE TIME OF THE CRASH. THE EPROM DATA READ "FRONT PASSENGER OCCUPANT CLASS: UNDETERMINED" EVEN THOUGH AN ADULT FEMALE WAS SEATED IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AT THE TIME OF THE CRASH. INVESTIGATION REVEALED THAT TRW AUTOMOTIVE U.S. LLC AND KELSEY-HAYES COMPANY ARE THE SUPPLIERS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM AND RELATED PARTS THAT FAILED. SEE ALSO ODI 11002482. *DSY *BF ** *TR

MY CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE OVER 40MPH. I WENT TO THE MECHANICS AND IT SAID THAT THE TRANSMISSION COMPUTER ISN'T FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY. I LOOKED UP THIS ISSUE ONLINE AND THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THESE CARS. I CONTACTED DODGE THEY SAID SINCE THERE IS NO RECALL THEN THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE CHARGER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WERE SEVERAL FAILURES THAT PROGRESSED WITHIN MONTHS OF OWNING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE STALLED SEVERAL TIMES AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WARNING INDICATORS AND GAUGES FLICKERED. WHEN THERE WAS A LOSS OF POWER, THE DOORS WOULD AUTOMATICALLY LOCK AND WERE UNABLE TO OPEN. IN ADDITION ,THE BRAKES FAILED TO FUNCTION PROPERLY WHEN APPLIED. AN UNKNOWN DEALER REPLACED THE BRAKES AND THE PINION PINS TWICE DUE TO THE WHEELS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE BEING AFFECTED DUE TO THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES AND THE CONTACT WAS WAITING TO DETERMINE IF THERE WAS AN OPTION TO TRADE IN OR BUY BACK THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

CAR STALL 3-4 TIMES AFTER REFUELING THEN RUNS FINE UNTIL NEXT REFUELING

TWO YEARS AGO I HAD TO REPLACE THE ENGINE WHILE DRIVING THE CAR ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ON AND IT LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH. YESTERDAY WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 65 MPH THE CAR LOST POWER. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE ESPECIALLY ON THE HIGHWAY.

GEAR SHIFTER FROZEN IN PARK, RELEASE BUTTON DID NOT WORK HAD TO HAVE CAR TOWED ON FLAT BED AIR BAG LIGHT STILL ON EVEN AFTER AIR BAG RECALL

VEHICLE STALLS AND JERKS AFTER FUEL FILL-UP

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE CHARGER. WHETHER THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY OR DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, IT WOULD STALL WHEN THE FUEL TANK WAS FILLED. PERRY CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM IN SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WERE NO COMPLAINTS OR FAILURE CODES REGARDING THIS ISSUE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 50,000.

MY CAR'S ENGINE STALLS WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING. I HAD PROBLEMS WITH THIS WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR WITHIN THE SAME WEEK FROM A USED CAR DEALER. IT NOW AFFECTS MY HEADLIGHTS BY MAKING THEM FLASH ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP FOR THE PAST YEAR AND NO ONE CAN SEEM TO FIND THE ISSUE. THERE IS A PAST TIME DEVICE INSTALLED WHICH INTERFERED WITH THE SECURITY SYSTEM. THE DEALERSHIP TOOK OUT THE SECURITY SYSTEM AND SHORTLY THEREAFTER THE ENGINE STALLS BEGAN. ENGINE STALLS OCCUR WHILE DRIVING OR STOPPED AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS. IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY BUT NOT OFTEN. THE HEADLIGHTS HAPPEN EVERYDAY AND IS GETTING WORSE. THE VEHICLE IS BECOMING UNDRIVABLE BUT NO SERVICE TECH CAN FIND THE ISSUE.
