2014 Dodge Charger complaints

VEHICLE WAS MAKING A GRUMBLING NOISE AT VERY LOW SPEED WHILE TURNING IN ANY DIRECTION, SUCH AS BACKING OUT OR A DRIVEWAY & TURNING WHEELS TO FACE THE PROPER DIRECTION TO EXIT. THIS LED ME TO TAKE THE CAR INTO A VEHICLE REPAIR SHOP WHERE CERTIFIED ASI MECHANICS COULD INSPECT & HOPEFULLY REPAIR. WHAT THEY DISCOVERED WAS THAT THE POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL WAS FAIRLY LOW. THEY SIMPLY ADDED THE PROPER & SPECIFIC FLUID TYPE THAT IS USED IN THAT PARTICULAR VEHICLE MADE BY THE CAR MANUFACTURER MOPAR. THIS SURPRISINGLY FIXED THE ISSUE TO WHAT I AM ASSUMING WILL BE A TEMPORARY RESOLUTION. BASED ON MY OWN EXTENSIVE RESEARCH & COMMON KNOWLEDGE, I HAVE DISCOVERED THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE. SOMEHOW THE FLUID IS LEAKING, OR SEEPING OUT SOMEWHERE FROM THE ALLEGEDLY SEALED STEERING SYSTEM. WHAT I DISCOVERED BASED ON RESEARCH, IS THAT OBVIOUSLY A SEALED SYSTEM SHOULD NOT LEAK, OR SEEP, & WITH IT BEING SEALED IT CANNOT EVAPORATE. MOST ISSUES W/THE VEHICLE STEERING PUMP HAVE BEEN LEAKS FROM AROUND THE 2 SEALS OF THE RESERVOIR FLUID TANK. A REPLACEMENT TANK & SEALS CAN BE PURCHASED SEPARATELY RATHER THAN ENTIRE PUMP ASSEMBLY WHICH IS VERY EXPENSIVE. ANOTHER COMMON ISSUE IS THAT THE "RACK" OUTER SEAL LEAKS. UNFORTUNATELY THE ATF+4 STOCK FLUID IS AGGRESSIVE ON THESE SEALS & THEY CAN/WILL BECOME POROUS OVER TIME & LEAK. ADDITIONALLY, THE PUMP, IT'S HOSES, & THE SEALS ON THE ENDS OF THE RACK ARE NOW KNOWN AS LEAK POINTS. THE ENTIRE SYSTEM SHOULD BE RECALLED & REPLACED AFTER FIXING THESE ISSUES. IF

VEHICLE AIR COOLING SYSTEM FREQUENTLY SHORTS OUT, BLOWING HOT AIR INSTEAD, EVEN WHEN ON MAX COOL MODE. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS OR WHILE STATIONARY; BUT DEPENDING ON OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE CAN ALSO HAPPEN ON HIGHWAY. IT SOUNDS AS IF THE COMPRESSOR SHUTS OFF. I HAVE ALREADY HAD THE SYSTEM RECHARGED THE LAST TWO SUMMERS AND HAVING THE SAME ISSUE NOW. NO FREON LEAKS WERE FOUND. *TR

THE LED'S HAVE STARTED TO GO OUT (NOT ILLUMINATE) IN THE CENTER, DECK MOUNTED TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY. THIS IS A SAFETY ITEM AS IT PROVIDES REAR ILLUMINATION AT NIGHT. APPARENTLY, THIS IS AN EXTREMELY COMMON PROBLEM. *TR

DRIVING CAR DOWN HIGHWAY CAR AT APPROXIMATELY 55-60 ACCELERATES DOES A 180 AND CONTINUES DOWN THE HIGHWAY IN REVERSE AT 60-70 MILES PER HOUR FOR APPROXIMATELY 1/2 MILE BEFORE BEING STOPPED BY RUNNING IN TO DITCH. I HAS 2 HANDS ON THE WHEEL AT ALL TIMES THANK GOD NOTHING STOPPED THE CAR FROM GOING INTO REVERSE AND NOT SURE HOW TRANSMISSION WAS ABLE TO GO INTO REVERSE WITHOUT DEPRESSING BRAKE OR TOUCHING SHIFT LEVER. THERE WERE BARRIERS ON BOTH SIDES AND NO SHOULDER THE CAR DID THE 180 WITHOUT CRASHING INTO BARRIERS I WAS IN LEFT LANE GOING FORWARD AFTER 180 WAS IN LEFT LANE GOING IN REVERSE CAR WAS GOING PRETTY STRAIGHT IN REVERSE KNEW I HAD TO STOP CAR BUT NOT TOO FAST KNEW WAS GOING TO HIT SOMETHING BECAUSE ROAD DOES NOT HAVE MANY STRAIGHT POINT AS I SLOWED THE CAR THE BACK END SLID DOWN HILL OFF SIDE OF ROAD THE CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN. *TR

THE DODGE CHARGER HAS A CRITICAL DESIGN FLAW ON THE TOP OF THE FUEL PUMP LOCATED BELOW THE DRIVERS SIDE PASSENGER SEAT. THE FUEL PUMP HOUSING COVER IS PRONE TO CRACKING AND THUS RESULTS IN FUEL LEAKING OUTSIDE THE FUEL PUMP AND THE SURROUNDING AREAS. THE FUEL LEAKING WILL OCCUR REGARDLESS OF IF THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION. THE POORLY DESIGNED FUEL PUMP COVER DOES VERY LITTLE TO CONTAIN THE FUEL INSIDE THE FUEL PUMP AND CREATES A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHERE PETROL IS BEING LEAKED INTO MANY DIFFERENT AREAS THAT CAN EASILY RESULT IN VEHICLE FIRES AND DEATH. MY DODGE CHARGER IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION AND THIS FUEL LEAK HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH VEHICLE MAINTENANCE OR DRIVING HABITS. THE FUEL PUMP IS SIMPLY DESIGNED IN A RECKLESS MANNER WHICH HAS ALREADY RESULTED IN MULTIPLE VEHICLE FIRES AND DEATH IN DODGE CHARGERS AND DODGE CHALLENGERS. I URGE YOU TO PLEASE ACT SWIFTLY IN RECALLING AND RESOLVING THIS MATTER BEFORE MORE LIVES ARE LOST. *TR

LAST YEAR I STARTED TO HEAR A BANGING SOUND FROM THE REAR OF THE CAR. BROUGHT IT TO A MECHANIC (CARMAX) AND WAS TOLD TO BRING IT TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THEY WERE UNSURE. SO I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID I HAD A NAIL IN MY TIRE SO I WENT AND GOT IT FIXED. THE SOUND STILL HAPPENING I WENT BACK, THIS TIME THEY RECOMMENDED CHANGING THE REINFORCEMENT TUNNEL. AFTER THAT THE SOUND WAS STILL THERE AND THEY RECOMMENDED CHANGING THE REAR SHOCKS, DID THAT AND SOUNDS STILL THERE. THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NOTHING VISIBLE THAT IS WRONG SO EVERYTHING IS FINE. IF EVERYTHING IS FINE WHY THE SOUND. IT HAS BEEN A YEAR AND IT IS JUST ANNOYING AND SCARY TO CONSTANTLY HEAR THAT BANGING NOISE. IT ONLY HAPPENS AT LOW SPEEDS AND IT HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING FORWARD AND IN REVERSE. *TR

THE REAR FUSE BOX BURNT OUT IN THE TRUNK OF THE CAR; ALMOST CAUSING A CAR FIRE AND THE FUSE BOX IS NONE OPERATIONAL BUT LOCATED NEXT TO THE TRANSMISSION, CONTROL PANEL,SEATS AND AIRBAGS FUSES AND MANY OTHER OPERATIONAL SAFETY FEATURES OF THE CAR. THE CAR HAS HAD ALL RECALLS, SERVICES, MAINTAINED METICULOUSLY WITH ONE OWNER NO ACCIDENTS.

AS I WAS MAKING A TURN (CAR WAS IN MOTION ON STREET), THE STEERING WHEEL STIFFENED UP, THE CAR BECAME EXTREMELY HARD TO CONTROL. AFTER COMPLETING THE TURN I PULLED INTO A EMPTY PARKING SPACE. I TURNED OFF THE AND THEN TURNED ON THE CAR. I THEN RECEIVED A MESSAGE FROM THE CAR SAYING "SERVICE POWER STEERING". I DECIDED TO DRIVE AROUND THE BLOCK TO SEE IF THERE WOULD BE ANY CHANGE IN HANDLING OF THE CAR. THERE WAS NONE, SO I PARKED THE CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY.

AROUND 70K MILES I NOTICED MY CAR NOT WANTING TO TURN LEFT, ESPECIALLY WHEN BRAKING. THE WHEEL SEEMS TO LOCK UP AND IS VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN. I ALSO NOTICED A KNOCKING, RATTLING TYPE NOISE, THAT SEEMS TO COME FROM THE WHEEL AREA, WHEN TURNING EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT AND AT LOW AND HIGH SPEEDS. I TOOK MY CAR TO A DODGE DEALERSHIP TO BE CHECKED. I WAS TOLD I NEEDED NEW BRAKES, ROTORS AND LOWER CONTROL ARMS REPLACED. WHICH I HAD THEM REPLACED. I TOOK CAR BACK BECAUSE IT IS STILL DOING THE SAME THING, I WAS TOLD THEY DO NOT SEE OR KNOW ANY REASON WHY IT'S STILL HAPPENING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, CODES PS401 AND P06DD WAS REPORTED. THE LOCKING OF THE WHEEL IS OCCURRING MORE FREQUENTLY AND I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE CHARGER. WHILE DRIVING 25-30 MPH THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL TICKING NOISE DETECTED. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED.

IN MY CAR THE OIL FILTER ASSEMBLY WAS LEAKING OIL AND WAS REPLACED. I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH EVERY 3.6L ENGINE BY DODGE 2014 AND UP. I SPOKE WITH A DODGE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE AND HE SAID IT WAS THE WORST DESIGN THEY HAVE EVER PUT ONTO THIS MOTOR DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF CARS THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE. I FEEL THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE DEALT WITH ASAP BECAUSE FOR NUMEROUS REASONS. FIRST REASON BEING OIL FLYING THROUGHOUT THE ENGINE CAB CAN CAUSE A FIRE. SECOND REASON BEING THAT OIL LEAKING WHILE DRIVING CAN CAUSE DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS FOR OTHER MOTORISTS WHETHER IT'S SLIPPING ON OIL LEAKED BY MY VEHICLE OR FROM OIL BEING SPRAYED UP FROM MY VEHICLE COATING THEIR WINDSHIELD. ALSO ANOTHER DANGER FOR ME THE OPERATOR IS THE NAUSEOUS SMELL OF OIL BURNING GOING THROUGH MY HEATING SYSTEM IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I HOPE THAT YOU SEE THIS COMPLAINT AND TAKE IT SERIOUS AND INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE BECAUSE I TRULY FEEL THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS HAZARD. I HAVE SINCE HAD THE PART REPLACED WITH AN UPGRADED PART THAT DODGE OFFERS. AND I HAD IT INSTALLED BY THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM DUE TO BEING MUCH CHEAPER. THANK YOU!

CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 90,000 MILES. DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AT HIGHWAY SPEED, CAR SUDDENLY POPPED 3 LIGHTS; TRACTION CONTROL, ABS, AND THE PARKING BRAKE INDICATOR. REPAIR SHOP HAS DIAGNOSED AS THE ABS MODULE NEEDING REPLACEMENT. THERE ARE NO OTHER SYMPTOMS BESIDES THE WARNING LIGHTS AND CRUISE CONTROL NOT WORKING. AT THIS TIME I HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING IF ANY OF THESE SYSTEMS HAVE ACTUALLY FAILED SINCE THE ABS MODULE HAS SHUT OFF THESE SYSTEMS.

THE VEHICLE WHEN I PURCHASED IT 3 MONTHS AGO HAS PRETTY LOW MILEAGE AND $79,000 ON IT WELL I NOTICED THE WHOLE TIME I HEARD A CREAKING SOUNDING WHEN I WOULD TURN THE TIRES AND THEN WHEN I WENT TO GEORGIA BECAUSE I LIVE IN TENNESSEE FOR CHRISTMAS AND BY THE TIME I GOT BACK TO TENNESSEE I COULDN'T EVEN TURN MY WHEEL AND I GUESS THE FUEL PUMP WENT OUT IN IT BUT IT'S A NEW CAR AND IT'S BEEN TAKEN REALLY GOOD CARE OF I'M JUST WONDERING WHY THE PUMP WENT OUT ON IT SO FAST WHEN I WAS DRIVING SO FAST I COULD WRECKED AND EVERYTHING

WIFE DROPPED ME OFF AT WORK AND LITERALLY THE SERVICE POWER STEERING SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH. THEY VEHICLE LOST POWER STEERING AND THIS HAPPENED OUT OF NOWHERE. THANKFULLY SHE WAS STOPPED IN A PARKING LOT WHEN THIS HAPPENED AND THE POWER STEERING QUIT

BETWEEN 30-60 MPH, AWD TRANSFER CASE ACTUATOR KEPT DISENGAGING/ENGAGING WHILE DRIVING. SLIGHT JARRING OF CAR OCCURRED WHEN ACTION HAPPENED. IT WAS TAKEN TO A DODGE DEALERSHIP IN NOV 2019 AND A SOFTWARE UPGRADE WAS PERFORMED WHICH SEEMS TO HAVE RESOLVED THE ISSUE. I HAD TO PAY ~$68 FOR THIS SERVICE. GOOGLE/WEB DISCUSSIONS SHOW THIS IS A BROAD ISSUE AMONG THE DODGE CHARGER AWD, AND SHOULD PROBABLY BE CONSIDERED A COMPANY-COVERED RECALL/REPAIR RATHER THAN A CHARGE BORNE BY CAR OWNER.

THE HARNESS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG BURNED UP AND HAD TO BE REPLACED.

POWER STEERING PUMP ALL OF A SUDDEN, JUST WENT OUT. LUCKILY I WAS PARKING MY CAR AT HOME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE CHARGER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR PRESSURE SERVICE MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WAS BLANK. ALSO, THE "KEY FOB WAS NOT DETECTED" MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START.

SHEARED ROCKER PIN POSING INJURY AND OR DEATH TO OCCUPANT OR OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD

ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY DEFECT CAUSES CAR TO CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. LIGHTING BOLT FLASHES THEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. I WAS DRIVING AT 70 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND THEN THE WARNING LIGHTS FLASH BOLT AND ENGINE THEN THE CARS SHUTSOFF. VERY DANGEROUS

TODAY MY CAR TURNED OFF ALL OF A SUDDEN OUT OF NO WHERE. I HAVE STATED TO THE DEALER FOR YEARS THAT IT IS NOT NORMAL FOR A CAR TO SAY BATTERY SAVER MODE AND LIGHTS, RADIO, DASH AND ALL ELECTRICAL DEVICES IN A VEHICLE TO TURN OF OR STUTTER OF AND ON. THEY SAID IT IS NORMAL AND THAT IT IS MY BATTERY. IF A CAR TURNS ON THE ALTERNATOR IS SUPPOSED TO TAKE ALL THE LOAD OFF OF THE BATTERY RUNNING IN THE ENGINE NOTHING ELSE. MY CAR HAS STUTTERED MULTIPLE TIME OFF AND IN WHILE DRIVING AND EVEN ALMOST TURNED OFF. THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR DRIVING AROUND, BECAUSE CAR COULD TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AND I LOSE ALL CONTROL OFF THE VEHICLE STEERING, BRAKES AND ACCELERATING. WHEN I THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF TODAY I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND THE CAR STARTED TO STUTTER AND THEN IT JUST TURNED OFF WHEN THE GREEN LIGHT TURNED ON. I WAS UNABLE TO TAKE A PICTURE TODAY AND I WAS IN TRAFFIC AND IT IS ILLEGAL TO DRIVE AND USE A PHONE. I HAVE MULTIPLE PICTURE FROM THE PAST BUT WAS ONLY ABLE TO UPLOAD ONE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE CHARGER NONE OF THE FRONTAL AIR BAGS DEPLOYED CONTACT HAD TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL ( PREGNANT ) UNKNOWN CAUSE ( VEHICLE NOT DIAGNOSED BY DEALER ) THE CONTACT STATED THAT WAS HIT IN THE REAR BY ANOTHER VEHICLE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, PUSHED HER IN TO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT.

MANUFACTURER NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE 66,000.

2014 DODGE CHARGER HAS POWER STEERING FAILURE, NO ACCIDENTS TO CAUSE DAMAGE HAVE OCCURRED. POWER STEERING HAS GONE OUT BUT WILL OCCASIONALLY FUNCTION FOR SEVERAL SECONDS CAUSING POTENTIAL CRASHED AT HIGH SPEEDS ON FREEWAY. THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE HAS BEEN GETTING WORSE OVER SEVERAL MONTHS AND WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES TO HAVE IT.

WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON THE HIGHWAY I NOTICED THAT THE HOOD OF MY CAR SHAKING, SO I PULLED OVER TO CHECK WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE HOOD.AFTER CHECKING THERE WASN'T ANYTHING SEEMINGLY WRONG AND HOOD LOOKED OK TO ME, SO I PULLED OFF AND PRECEDED TO DRIVE AGAIN ON TO DRIVE A FEW FEET AND MY HOOD JUST FEW BACK HITTING THE WINDSHIELD AND BENDING THE HOOD IN A FEW PLACES. AS A RESULT MY HOOD WON'T CLOSE BE CAUSE OF THE HOOD AND THE LATCH IS BROKEN.

WHEN DRIVING MY VEHICLE THEIR IS A KNOCKING NOISE IN MY FRONT RIGHT WHEEL, ALMOST SOUNDS AS IF SOME BOLTS ARE LOOSE. ALSO WHEN PULLING IN TO BACK UP, WHEN I TURN MY STEERING WHEEL A CERTAIN WAY THEIR IS A FUNNY CLICKING SOUND IN THE STEERING WHEEL, AND FUNNY SOUND IN THE BRAKE WHEN I AM BACKING MY CAR INTO MY DRIVE WAY. I BELIEVE THAT THIS MAY BE AN ISSUE WITH A RECALL THAT HASN'T BEEN LOOKED INTO.

PCM FAILURE WHICH IS CAUSING THE CAR TO CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. DIAGNOSTIC WAS A BAD. PCM LIGHTING BOLT WARNING SIGN AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT.

I HAVE REPORTED THIS WITH FCA CORPORATE, THIS IS NOW MY THIRD REPORT AND COMPLAINT WITH THE VEHICLE SAFETY DEPARTMENT, NOW TWO OPEN SAFETY CLAIMS WITH CHRYSLER CORPORATE IN DENVER AND ALSO HAVE HAD THE REPAIRS DONE ONCE BY LARRY H MILLER I AM TRYING TO GET THE SAME REPAIR DONE AGAIN BUT NO ONE WILL RETURN MY PHONE CALLS AND NO ONE IS WILLING TO TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY OF THIS VEHICLE AND FIX IT. TOTAL CARE WARRANTY HAS A CONTRACT WITH LARRY H MILLER FOR 12 MONTHS OR 12,000 MILES THAT THEY MUST FIX THE REPAIRS NO MATTER WHAT. LARRY H MILLER CLAIMED THAT TOTAL CARE WAS NOT GOING TO COVER THE FIXES EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE THE ONES THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO FIX IT. FRAUD, LIES, UNSAFE AND UNPROFESSIONAL PRACTICES.

NO ONE WILL FIX MY VEHICLE, NO ONE WILL CALL ME BACK. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM SINCE I AM THE FIRST AND ONLY OWNER, AND THEY WILL NOT RETURN MY PHONE CALLS.

MY 2014 DODGE CHARGER WHICH HAS 55000 MILES STARTED TO HAVE ISSUES WITH THE BACK UP CAMERA , ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO IT WOULD START FLICKERING WHEN IN REVERSE AND SOMETIMES HAVE SCRATCH OUT TYPE SCREEN. AND WHEN IT WOULD WORK THE CAMERA WAS SOMEHOW IN REVERSE . SO BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY I SEEN A CAR IN THE CAMERA ON THE LEFT BUT LUCKILY WHEN I TURNED AROUND I REALIZED IT WAS ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE .

ON HIGHWAY GOING 65MPH.CAR STEERING LOST CONTROL AND PULLED SHARP RIGHT OFF ROAD. COULD NOT STEER OR BRAKE. ALL LIGHTS ON PANEL WERE LIT UP. ROAD IN THE DITCH AT 65MPH AND RAMPED A DRIVEWAY AND STILL COULDN'T STEER OR BRAKE.FINALLY CAR CAME TO A STOP ON ITS OWN OR DUE TO IMPACT AND HIGH BRUSH IN THE DITCH.

I NOTED THAT THE TOP EDGE AND UPPER EDGES ON BOTH SIDES OF MY LAMINATED WINDSHIELD HAS WHAT APPEARS TO BE LITTLE BUBBLES. THIS HAS ME CONCERNED SINCE IT APPEARS THAT THE LAMINATED WINDSHIELD IS BEGINNING TO SEPARATE.

70,000 MILES ON MY DODGE ONLY BOUGHT/SERVICED FROM DODGE LARRY H MILLER. AURORA, COLORADO ONLY OWNER NO ACCIDENTS STEERING WHEEL COLUMN/ROD/WHEEL HAS COME OUT IN MY LAP NOW TWICE!!! ONCE WHILE DRIVING. HAPPENS WHEN I ADJUST THE STEERING WHEEL LEVER TO GO UP OR DOWN WAS FIXED OVER A MONTH AGO FOR THE FIRST INCIDENT (WARRANTY COVERED MOST) I STILL HAD TO PAY SOME OUT OF PICKET...

I BOUGHT A USED 2014 DODGE CHARGER LESS THAN A MONTH AGO . I HAVEN'T MADE MY FIRST PAYMENT AND HAVE TO REPLACE THE OIL FILTER HOUSING AND NO A PROBLEM WITH MY BATTERY SAVER INDICATOR SHUTTING OF FUNCTIONS OF THE CAR WHILE DRIVING . DEALER HAS RECOGNIZED THE ISSUE BY UNWILLING TO PAY FOR ALL COST AND PARTS OF REPAIR .

I HAVE OWNED THE CAR FOR A LITTLE OVER A YEAR, SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE STEERING WHEEL ROD/COLUMN COMPLETELY COME OUT IN MY LAP.. ONCE WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE ALREADY HAD IT FIXED BY MY CERTIFIED PREOWNED WARRANTY AND ONCE AGAIN IT HAS DONE IT. THIS TIME IT TOOK OFF MY WINDSHIELD WIPER LEVER, IT HAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED MY INTERIOR AND UNFORTUNATELY THE WARRANTY DID NOT COVER THAT WHICH IS NOT FAIR. REMEMBER THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN AND ROD IS VERY HEAVY AND DOES MUCH DAMAGE WHEN IT FALLS IN YOUR LAP WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE BEEN THE ONLY OWNER, IT HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT, I HAVE ONLY SERVICED AND BOUGHT IT FROM A DODGE DEALERSHIP. THE CAR NOW HAS 69,000 MILES AND RECENTLY WAS FIXED OVER A MONTH AGO AND ISSUE STILL REMAINS. MY CAR WAS IN THE SHOP FOR OVER 20 DAYS I DID NOT GET A RENTAL VEHICLE AND IT WAS THE MOST PAIN I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED WHEN IT COMES TO DEALING WITH WARRANTEES AND DEALERSHIPS I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED IN MY LIFE.

MY CAR OFTEN SOMETIMES THE ABS & TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT POP UP OUT OF THE BLUE AT THE SAME TIME THEN GOES OFF & ALSO IT SEEMS AT TIMES THE TRANSMISSION GETS STUCK WHEN REDUCING SPEED COMING TO S STOP ALSO THE VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN JUST TURN OFF ON ME WHEN I WAS RUN MY A.C IN A DRIVE THROUGH AS I PROCEEDED TO PULL OFF

MY VEHICLE HAS A RECALL (CAMPAIGN 17V-741) FOR THE ALTERNATOR. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER FOR REPAIRS AND WAS ADVISED THAT SINCE MY VIN IS NOT IN THE DODGE RECALL DATABASE, THE REPAIR CANNOT BE DONE UNDER RECALL AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF THE ALTERNATOR. MY "BATTERY SAVER MODE" LIGHT ILLUMINATES REGULARLY UNDER LOAD SUCH AS AIR CONDITIONER. TO DATE, DODGE REFUSES TO HONOR THE RECALL.

AFTER THE PCM / TCM CRUISE CONTROL RECALL SERVICE, THE TRANSMISSION HAS NOT BEEN THE SAME. THE SHIFTING IS ALL OFF AND THE TRANSMISSION LUNGES AND CLUNKS. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES. THEY REPORT THE TRANSMISSION IS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. WHEN CLEARLY IT IS NOT. THE CAR LUNGES FORWARD WHEN COMING TO A STOP.

TAKATA RECALL. I HAD TO WAIT OVER TWO MONTHS TO GET AN APPOINTMENT TO GET MY AIRBAG RECALL FIXED. UPON GETTING TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME THEY DIDNT HAVE THE PARTS. WHY DIDNT THEY CALL ME? THEY HAVE NOT TOLD ME WHEN THEY WILL FIX THIS. I HAVE INSTRUCTED FAMILY IF I GET IN AN ACCIDENT AND DIE OR GET SERIOUSLY INJURED TO SUE. THIS IS CRAZY I HAVE TRIED THREE TIMES TO HAVE THIS FIXED AND THEY NEVER HAVE PARTS OR CALL ME AND CANCEL.

DEFECTIVE LEFT CYLINDER IN PENTASTAR 3.6VL ENGINE. MY CAR WAS BUILT IN SEPTEMBER 2013. IT HAS THE CONSTANT TICKING AND PUTTERING ASSOCIATED WITH THE DEFECT. DRIVES FINE, MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, BUT WHEN IDLE IT SHAKES/KNOCKS UNCONTROLLABLY. MY MECHANIC EDUCATED ME ON THE DEFECT AFTER MANY ATTEMPTS AT REPAIRING THE SEVERE MISFIRING.

ALTERNATOR RECALL THAT MATCHES EXACT ISSUE, MAKE (DODGE), MODEL (CHARGER), YEAR (2014), AND ENGINE SIZE OF CAR (3.6L V6). ALTERNATOR MALFUNCTION CAUSED SHORT CIRCUIT OF HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER STEERING PUMP. INDICATOR LIGHTS BEGAN TO FLASH AND CAR WOULD BEGIN TO STALL WHILE IN OPERATION UNTIL EVENTUALLY DYING COMPLETELY.
