    I have a 16 charger and my door panels are lifting. Went to Dodge while in my warranty. They said it was backed ordered. Went to different place. They said take back to the place I bought car from. I call many times, same story. Now my car is over 36,000. Now they say I'm out of my warranty and refused to cover 3/4 doors that are lifting. I see all forums of the same product problem. Something needs to be done about this. I also have made a complaint with BBB.

    Unfortunately I have to put a star! I own a 2015 Dodge Charger. It is a little over 3 years old 50,000 miles and the interior door panels are lifting away from the door frame and the dash upholstery is lifting away from the dash and center console. I have read in Dodge forums that this is an issue with the years model, due to the foam lining panels. The dealership refuses to stand behind the product. The dash gets worse with every passing day. I have a 3 year old vehicle that looks like it is 20 years old on the inside. I have filed complaints with Dodge and nobody cares. This is my first and last time buying a Dodge and I go out of my way to let everyone that Dodge will not stand behind their workmanship. Shame on you Dodge. A quick fix and you can’t or won’t standby the consumer.

    I'm a proud owner of a 2017 Dodge Charger, white with black, 20 inch wheels, love this car, fun to drive for a large car. But having issues with my a/c and that new gas that's in this car. How the hell did this gas get approved, so expensive to charge with, and being that they use this new gas it needs a high pressure system. In English this means problems going forward. Didn't these guys test this new gas before they went ahead and approved this. That's the EPA for you. It's also very explosive, if I would of known this, I would not buy this thing.

    My Chevy Camaro still runs on that 134 gas which is so much better for the car and still blows ice cold air from 2015 with no issues, and much less expensive to repair and charge up. They made it where you and I couldn't even charge this system like the old days, they knew this, and even changed the adaptor so you can't charge the system or even mix gasses which I know isn't a good idea either.

    Bottom line my ac gone out, only blows hot air, after a year and in a half when I started having issues with this. I have a bumper to bumper warranty but Dodge told me that I had over 36,000 miles on ac and it's no longer covered. It was like 100 miles over and they would not repair this. They also told me it can run over 5,000 for repairs. I'm not stupid. I'm good with cars, I think it's the evaporator coil being clogged or the expansion valve issues.

    I'm curious, am I the only one having issues with a/c on a 2017 dodge charger? More good news, this new gas will be on most cars here built in US, GL! Stay away from dodge charges and those crooks, I mean EPA should be stopped. Now I heard they are adding more junk in your engine compartment to handle this high pressure system and to make it safer, does not make any sense to me. I guess this was a way to rip people off and pocket your money, what crooks.

    I cannot complain about the power of this car. It's fun to drive. I have 2015 Dodge Charger RT with 42k miles on it. Noticed when I park after engaging the foot brake the car moves forward or back depending on the angle of the road. At 35k the water pump broke and it stayed at the dealer for 2 weeks for repairs. Spent almost $500 on the car rental for two weeks. Now when it was time for reimbursement Dodge said that they can only refund $175, WOW! I have a Mopar Plan that in case the car fails they pay for the expenses but ended up bouncing back and forth with Dodge and Mopar. Now at 42k miles, I noticed suspension problems. There's a noise coming from the front right suspension, a thud when it's running. I'm getting ready to get rid of this car and this will be my last Dodge vehicle.

    I got a 2014 Charger RT - about 47k miles on it. I got it new off the lot in May 2014. 3 months later I started getting a Battery Saver Mode and car turned off my screen side lights dashboard so I made an appt with dealer and nothing was found. Maybe about year later took it in again with the light on for the battery mode and they turned off the car and again nothing found. I have called dealer, talked to the main Dodge center, I've done recall alternator in 2018 and I still get it but without turning off and I don't want to be stuck in the middle of the freeway. No one can figure it out. I got a lifetime warranty on the electronic and motor and all that and useless.

    I had leased a 2018 Dodge Charger in February of 2018. Ever since the first recall on the vehicle, that I took it in to Haddad Dodge of Bakersfield, the car has been malfunctioning. Every time we go out of town for the car will begin to shut off on the freeway. The car cannot even get to 65 MPH before it starts to shake then turn off. We had taken it in to 3 different dealerships where all of them have stated that there is nothing wrong with the car.

    Out of all those 3 times, the car shuts off when we are driving on the freeway, let alone we have children in the car. The third time we took it in the dealership stated that it was a battery malfunction. We replaced the battery that cost us $800, and a few days later the car shuts off again while on the freeway. We even have taken videos and shown them that the car turns off while we are driving on the freeway. This car will surely kill us one day because of it turning off on the freeway. The warranty department just states to take it back to the dealership so they can fix the issue, but they don't care about my family's safety. We are literally afraid of taking this car anywhere. My kids don't even want to get back in the car. At this moment the car is back at the dealership waiting to hear what they will do this time.

    Second owner of a 2011 Dodge Charger R/T with the 5.7 Hemi in it, bought it with 20k on the odometer. We have driven this car from coast to coast and have never had an issue with it. All recalls were taken care of in a timely manner by the local dealership. I have modified the car with aftermarket parts such as lowered suspension and cat-back exhaust. The Multiple Displacement System (MDS) works as it should and gives the car excellent gas mileage for a V8 car. I traded my 2009 M-B E350 for this car and I'm glad I did.

    I purchased a 2016 Dodge Charger that is in excellent condition. The look of it is breathtaking. Looks just as it is, sports car, but also family car. The vehicle will make anyone's neck turn. It's sexy! I purchased it in 2017 at CarMax which I suggest anyone who is thinking of purchasing a vehicle to consider going by there. The vehicle is a four door model that has a lot of space so is great for a family of four, even five. But I would change the feature that beeps when you back up into a backup camera. And would also change the feature that has the Bluetooth only into DVD player as well as the Bluetooth because sometimes my cell phone dies due to me forgetting to grab a charger from my house or even having issues paying attention to the road while trying to locate a song I want played from YouTube or Pandora.

    I leased my 2018 Dodge Charger in November of 2017. After putting a little over 5000 miles on it the transmission started to slip. Initially, Chrysler changed the valve body thinking that might do the job, unfortunately it did not. Days after the valve body was replaced I was still getting the hesitations between gears and the slipping. I took it back into my local Chrysler dealer and they had to replace the entire transmission. Again, I have only about 6000 miles on the Charger at this point. The transmission was replaced mid April and after it was replaced the car has not driven the same.

    I feel like I have an overall loss of power and the transmission is still jumpy. I took it back to Chrysler to tell them I am still unsatisfied with my practically brand new Dodge Charger and the service advisors are telling me nothing is wrong with the car yet I am the one who drives in 100+ miles a day and experience the issues. I do not know what to do about the issue. If anyone has had the same issue please let me know. Thank you.

    The 1969 Dodge Charger is the one of many cars I own. It starts and runs at a drop of a hat. It is stylish and while it's not a luxury car it rides and performs very well. Plenty of ponies under the hood. Very reliable in any situation. The only drawback is gas mileage 10 mpg city. Will keep this car forever and it never needs smogged.

    I purchased this Dodge Charger SXT V-6 3.5HO new in 2005, it has 225,000 miles on it and it is still an awesome vehicle. Biggest problem was at 198,000 the Front Suspension (Ball Joints, both sides) had to be replaced. The biggest gripe I have is that the environmental controls (Heat/AC Controls) are not lit up and hamper adjustments at night. A $27K car that has no console lights for the Heat/AC? That is a minor irritant, but the car is really a good one, one of my best owned!

    I purchased 2018 Dodge Charger Daytona 392 in October 2017, the vehicle recently caught on fire. I only had this vehicle only 6 months when it caught on fire. Upon catching on fire there were no warning or signs before. What happen was that there were cloud of black smoke entering the vents of car and two minutes later my car went into flames. I contacted Dodge. There hasn't been any type of dialog between Dodge and I. They said there were investigator/claims specialist going to contact me, nobody has. I originally reached out Dodge March 29 and followed up with them on April 4. The customer service associate said he didn't have any information regarding my car, he said the adjuster closed my ticket and he wasn't able to look at the notes. I just wanted information regarding my car.

    I bought my Dodge Charger brand new in 2014... This past year in 2017 my Dodge Challenger was engulfed in flames. My car was a total loss. The insurance company determined after their investigation the cause of the fire was the engine. After my own research other people have reported the same issues even while driving their cars... My car was sitting parked when my car caught on fire. It was sitting 2hrs...when I heard a explosion. Dodge needs to have a class action suit against them and replace everyone cars.

    My 08 Dodge Charger with 70,000 miles on it needed a transmission mount replacement. I had to replace a few sensors. I replaced the hood compartment belts 2 times. I replaced the spark plugs, rotors, gas cap, and the exhaust. And the computer that controls the entire car malfunctioned. And the airbags, and ignition switch were recalled. All this cost me around $6,500 on top of what I paid for the car. I tried to sell it, but no one will offer more than $1,000 for it. I'd rather junk it than give it for that little, because it still has a thousand problems. After this experience, I'll never buy an American car again, because they are made of trash.

    I bought a 2006 Dodge Charger less than 1 year ago with about 80,000 miles on it. I have did the basic oil change and upkeep on maintenance. I got in my car on Tuesday. Let it warm up for a few minutes then I drive off and I notice my car won't move faster than 40 mph. I get home and let it rest, the next day I let it warm up for 30 mins before I pulled off, hopped on the highway and the same problem. So I go to my mechanic and he says it's a transmission computer issue. I went online and see many people have this same issue with this same car. I contacted Dodge to complain and they seem uninterested in fixing a known issue with these cars.

    This is my second Charger rt max. I absolutely love these cars, it's fast, stylish, and comfortable. I see these horror stories, but unless you totally just beat the crap out of it or not the first original owner there should be no issues. IS there such thing as a perfect car? ABSOLUTELY NOT, and there isn't going to be either. I never buy used, and I suggest to those reading don't because you are buying someone else's garbage. They beat on it, wrecked it, cant pay for it, and drove it like they stole it. I have had some very minor issues, nothing that wasn't covered under warranty, I opted out of the extended when I bought the car as it comes with the standard 3yr/36000 mile bumper to bumper.

    If you keep the car for that entire time then purchase an aftermarket one. Thats what the warranties are for. I once had an electrical issue with my first Charger and after taking it back 3 times with the same issue and dealer couldnt figure it out, I called corporate. They were the best, they had a started work on the vehicle and he was able to fix what the regular shop mechanics couldnt, even though they had it for almost a month, it was fixed. Again there is no such thing as a perfect car so get that idea out of your head. I also had a brand new Toyota Tundra platinum loaded, 12 miles on it at purchase sold it back after 6 mos. Nothing but electrical problems. Just to show another end of the spectrum here for all the "I'm gonna buy a Toyota cause they are so good" people. Hope this helps, just maintain the vehicle and dont beat the crap out of it, love it, take care of it, and it will take care of you.

    I bought my 2006 Black Dodge Charger RT 4 Door in 2006 from local dealership in FWB, FL. I have the oil changed every 3k miles, had new tires put on. My car has had a couple of recalls. Nothing major. Air bag, and a few other things. All covered under RECALL. I have not had any issues with my car, like a lot of people I have read has had. I take very good care of it. And it has made it through a 100 year flood which water surpassed the door handles while in my garage. It has made it through 2 Hurricanes. And 3 hail Storms. No damage. It is 11.5 years old and so far, going strong. Proud to be driving it.

    I just recently drove a BMW 2016 for 3 weeks while my son's vehicle was being repaired. He hit a cement pole in his (Dodge Ram 1500, 2007, also very good vehicle), (he is too young to drive rental car from insurance, so I drove it and let him drive my car to and from work and school, while truck being repaired). BMW drives like a dream. I would seriously considering buying one until I looked up the maintenance and compared over a 10 year period with other cars and it was the no. 1 problematic vehicle and the most expensive to repair if you add up all the repairs (on average). So, I guess I'll keep my sweet Dodge Charger until it starts giving me problems or until it needs a new motor. I guess I will buy a new car at that time. Good luck to all of those who own a Dodge.

    Side panels are so soft that when washing the car the sides cave in with just a little pressure that I apply with the sponge.

Too many recalls on this piece of crap and now the transmission is rattling like crazy and the dealer pretends to have never heard of any transmission problems with these vehicles. They have my car and said they would let me know on Monday if it's covered by the drivetrain warranty. Of course it's covered by that warranty you morons. It's part of the drivetrain.

    My Husband could have lost his life on the highway when his Dodge cut off. Only to find out they was going to charge us over $10,000 for a new Engine up until they found out we had a Warranty. This is when the Insurance Co. got involved and wanted the Engine broken down. Further after finding the timing belt should have been replaced to ensure my husband wasn't at fault further investigation from Victory Dodge yielded that an ex-employee from Keffer Dodge yrs earlier (we didn't own the car- it was in auction) signed off on the timing belt recall (yet didn't complete the work) which busted which caused total Engine Failure. Claim from Insurance CO. was denied so Keffer Dodge was responsible for the new engine.

    Needless to say I twittered the incident, got Dodge Corp from MI involved and stating also they were doing everything to prevent this from happening again as well as customer satisfaction. Never once did I feel The Dodge Corp Give any thoughts or matter to hat day "Dec 23rd 2016" on HWY 17 when My husband was on the HWY & could have been Killed along with his father, who would have thought to look at the car??? And to have read an Article in Hot Rod Magazine that Dodge put up a big fuss about the whole timing chain recall mess and it wasn't till yrs later that they fessed up to them taking responsibility for it.

    This Corp. just in my opinion should take a look in the mirror and put themselves in place of one of us how would they feel? How can we hold these Corporations responsible for such acts as what happened here? I know my husband and father are okay. How about the next guy or family? Or about the Lives they fail to take responsibility for because it was "following protocol" to rebuild the engine with the old engine parts and take the warranty down from 3 Yrs now till 2.

    So now Long story short and lie after lie- from the three involved I wrote our State Attorney General's Office- Still Pending- It began on Dec 23 and it is now April 18 it was nearly a week ago when we got the Charger back for the second time. The initial time it was not a new engine, it was a rebuilt block with the blown parts off my husband's busted old engine. It was shaking, misfiring, leaking, so bad it misaligned his hood to where it would not shut. Back in the shop it went. I instructed them not to touch it that we had already discussed unless from day one the new engine was in it now look what happens. They were put on notice prior to them initially telling us to pick the car up that we contacted the Attorney General office and here again we have the car and are still awaiting the outcome of what's to become of such a nightmare.

    Please also Beware of a Highway Officers Patrol Car "Also A Dodge Charger" Caught Fire under the hood as it was on the Highway in Wyoming the story caught my daughter's eye- unbelievable. "Never heard what happened in the Investigation." Only that the Highway Officer was okay. But this is the messed up part: the Machanic at the Victory Dodge's as well as the Service Management stated though they couldn't be responsible for the law-enforcement vechicles being they have their own mechanics who work on their vehicles which voids any liability/warranty we were the first Civilian's who had a cover up recall come through that shop. Not sure what he meant by that but seconds later he starts to tell me about a list of Dodge Vechiles on a list with serious recalls- in which he later gave me a copy of- Shocking "some life/death recalls".

    The Chysler 200 has a Serious recall. I'm the CO-Signer for a family member. It also holds a serious recall which has deaths occurred and lawsuits because of it- the Airbags not only is it a Recall but they are on such back order. It's just ridiculous! So what are these people suppose to do? Told my family member to get a rental and park it. Have Dodge pay for it until they get the recall part in. In any situation with any vehicle- especially used off a lot- always check it with the dealer's system for recalls and having it look over by another dealership would be a bad idea either- and always ever 6 months check you're cars recalls against the Vin #. There should be a web site available just google.

    You can't trust Dealers no more than you can trust a thief- I say that as well being too that the same Dealership done work on my 2011 Dodge Ram which claimed to have resurfaced the roaters as well as new breaks ropes out my dash some work on the Air conditioner well $24,00 later and come to find out no reserfaced rotors, crossed my heated seats, messed up my bezel, oil light on, insulation coming up from my dash had to get all that taking car of yet still after sending my husband up there a week of being gone on the road "trucker" he comes back tired not paying attention yet gives them the list- my dash hasn't been fixed- oil light still on- Bless my husband's Heart. I have to give him An A for his efforts. He was so exhausted that day.

    Needless to say we disputed $12,00 of the bill w/ the credit card company- no response was made to our dispute- case closed refunded our dispute for half our bill &12,00 and the Dealership replace the damaged they caused to the bezel and gave me new rotors they charged me for which claimed was resurfaced and was not. I never had a problem when this was Nabor Dodge yet once it became Victory Dodge it fell apart. Never even heard of Keffer Dodge until this whole incident with my husband's car yet can speak too highly of them either or of the Dodge Corp in MI altogether. Everyone please be safe out there!

    I have wanted a Charger forever, but if I knew now what I didn't know then, I would label these junk! Just to think I was a Dodge fan until I seen how much they refuse to help their clientele. I bought a 2006 Charger a couple months ago, and I can't even drive it now due to the toe leaning in from the plastic bushings on my rear end. My fear is the whole camber may be screwed, because my 2 back tires are all metal on the insides. We've already replaced control arms, engine and transmission. Now I am having to replace the complete suspension. Not just the bushings, but the shocks, tires again, possibly the camber depending on the damage done.

    I have read several people having the same issues with the suspension and bushings. It's not a cheap fix because we not only fork out 400 for parts, but we have to pay the mechanics hour rates, and this stuff is petty and time consuming. How can you not help out your consumers to keep your future business. I am praying you issue more recalls for all the hassle with the suspension, and learn to value your customers. Dodge if you fix these issues we're all facing this can help you in the future, and it should give you insight on how to make a durable vehicle!

    I bought my 2012 Charger in 2013 as a second owner, the car had 22,000km on it when I purchased it along with an extended warranty for 7 years/170,000km. I've only had basic issues with the car, all covered by warranty, such as faulty battery, pulley for the belt drive, a caliper bracket, etc.The biggest issue I had was in the summer of 2016 when my car started shaking like crazy while sitting at a red light, CEL came on, checked it out online, turned out it was a misfire in cylinder 6. I called the dealership and was told to bring it in right away, they had the car for 3 days, swapped out the bottom half of the engine for a manufacture defect, totally covered by the warranty, it was actually on a recall for a lot of 2012 Dodge vehicles, so I'm pretty sure it would've been covered either way.

    Since I've bought the vehicle, I've done a few mods on the car, such as; Catback true dual exhaust, with a cross flow. Mopar cold air intake. Diablo Trinity tuner. Full brake kit (Pads, Rotors, and Calipers). The car now has about 80,000km on it, always done the oil change before it needed to be done. Rust proofed it twice since I owned it, not a spot of rust on it (even the undercarriage). I deal with a dealership here in Quebec, St-Remi, called Lestage Chrysler and they are absolutely amazing when it comes to their clients, these guys would bend over backwards to help out a client.

    My 2008 Dodge Charger's engine started knocking for no reason even though I keep up with the maintenance & repairs like clockwork & only drive the car in summer. Research shows many have same issue.

    I went to a big local Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep dealership and the most skilled sales guy sold me a new Dodge Charger car that turned out to have many open safety recalls from the Dodge manufacturer. I am a female, I went by myself and under the high sales pressure, I signed all the papers and made the payment. Few days after the sale was done, I was contacted by the same aggressive sales guy who urged me to cooperate with him and bring back the brand new car to their service department to get it serviced and fixed to safety standards. Basically, I was defrauded on a new car that was not to be sold to me or anyone in the first place.

    After that point, I was given the biggest run-around, especially when I let them know that all I want at that point is to cancel out the sales deal and get my money back since the car has all these safety hazard issues and they had it back in their property and they wouldn't tell me if it's safe for me to drive it again. Since it is a brand new car, it is supposed to have bumper-to-bumper protection from the Dodge manufacturer. So, weeks turned into months and all the sales people I dealt with during the sales process just avoided addressing my concerns, answering my calls, and telling me when I can get my money back. They claimed that they can't help me out if they can't locate where the car was. They treated me as an inconvenience and would not do the right thing and just refund the money since they took possession of the car anyway 2 days after the sale was done.

    They would not honor the manufacturer warranty and the service contract because the greedy sales people were negligent and lost track of the car after selling it to me knowing that it has safety defects. Lack of cooperation and malicious negligence is all the service recovery that I got from the folks at the dealership. The sales department would transfer me to the service department, and vice versa. No one seems to know what is going on with the car they sold me. They were very shady and secretive about it as if they were going to lose their jobs if they disclosed to me what is wrong with the new car they sold me. In the meantime, they have overdrafted my bank account after they withdraw large sums of monies from my checking account, so I was left with no money to hire a lawyer to sue them for my loss and damages and all the inconvenience and stress thereafter. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
