Dodge Charger Reviews

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.

For the past year my car shuts off periodically while I am driving it. The last time I was going around a bend in the road lost all power and steering. Was barely able to get to the side of the road. Luckily no one was coming the other direction because I went into the oncoming lane. Dodge keeps telling me it is throwing no codes and they cant get it to duplicate the problem so there is nothing they can do!!! WTH. Am I supposed to drive with my kids in the car until something does happen. Then what!!! Ugh so frustrated.

I have a 2008 Dodge Charger, and I have had nothing but issue with the car. I had to issue with the water housing unit, radiator, head gasket, and now my crankshaft (new engine).

I have <41k miles on my 2014 Dodge Charger AWD SXT. It developed a front vibration when braking. On July 9, 2016, I took it for service to Golling Chrysler Jeep Dodge in Bloomfield Hills, MI. The service department diagnosed warped & rust pitted rotors along with worn pads (same write-up for all 4). In addition, the pitting was so deep that machining would cause the thickness to be below the lower limit. I drive this vehicle daily in rush hour traffic. I do NOT race or drive on a high-speed track. I'm very concerned the vehicle has warped & rust pitted rotors (all 4) at such low mileage. I deduce the rotor material is substandard. I okayed the work for the front pads and rotors only. Has there been any technical service orders issued against the rotors? More than concerned.

We have had to replace the motor $10,000! Also the ignition which was $600 which we got back because of the recall. The brakes and struts have been a constant issue... $1600 spent on that so far. We had to replace the battery and alternator $600. The moon roof now leaks. Now there is an airbag recall. We have put $12,200 in this car and have owned it less than 2 years. I know it's used but this is ridiculous! Replacing the motor at 130k miles!

I bought my 2008 Dodge Charger new off the lot and always kept the maintenance up to part and never had problems with my car until my engine locked up with oil in the car. Took the car to the dealership to see what the problem was and it was due to sludge. I have researched this issue and it happens in way too many chargers and Chrysler is not wanting to fix the problem. I have a warranty on my engine and Chrysler still wouldn't fix my car. There has to be something done about this!!

Purchased my 2013 Dodge Charger off a local lot in Bakersfield. Loved driving the car... No issues, regular maintenance. Was driving car and car came to a sudden stop while accelerating on highway. Was stuck in traffic. Car would not shift into neutral to push off of road. All cluster lights were on. Very scary with children in the car. Called a tow truck and had it delivered to Dodge. Now we wait. Car only has 40000 miles on it and should be covered under power train warranty. Very sad to see so many issues with Dodge/Chrysler products.

I've had my '08 Dodge Charger for 8 yrs. I bought it new. I've always taken care of my car. Any & all problems I take care of them right away, but now the mechanics can't pinpoint what's the problem. My car lost power twice. The 2nd time I had to be towed & after the tow truck put her down it started up like nothing so that was $280 down the drain. I had a diagnostic tests. Gave a code P4020 so I had the driver side catalytic converter changed, but the code is still there. The engine light comes on & off, took it to Dodge. They want me to leave it and said it will be $130 an hr bc they have to do a detail diagnostic test so NO I did not leave it.

2015 dodge charger rt - First oil change at 10k, the oil filter was in bypass and leaking oil around the filter. This is the first year of switching from the traditional mopar 899 filter which is larger.

Bought a 2012 Charger in November of 2011. Within 6 months had to have the radio and electrical system replaced. It has had 6 recalls so far. I only have 27,000 miles on it. Take it to the dealership for regular maintenance I had to replace tires after 20,000 miles. 2 weeks ago, it sounded like it was going to stall and I couldn't get it into gear or shut it off. Finally was able to and had it towed to dealership. They said it was the alternator, had it replaced. The air bag light would come on and they said it was the electrical harness. I complained to Dodge and they didn't charge me for the part, but I had to pay 280.00 for labor only to find out a few days later that the harness was already replace in 2013 due to a recall.

I have 2015 Charger R/T premium. All R/T Chargers are standard with Sport Mode 2 which has SRT pages. But after I bought car the pages disappeared and Dodge was suppose fix it but now getting runaround and say I'm not suppose have Sport Mode 2 it's only available in SRT package. You look on build your own Dodge and all R/T are standard with Sport Mode 2. So I need help getting a national recall on all of these cars so we get the option back because it's advertised with it in our cars and we paid for these SRT pages. I have dealer printouts showing I do have Sport Mode 2.

Drove my 2013 Dodge Charger RT to work, no problems. It rained heavy while at work. Started car after work. Traction control, airbag light, and transmission error (Check engine light) came on. Could not get car to change out of fear. RPM would not level. Has anyone had this problem?

I have a 2014 AWD SXT Charger with 14k miles on it (which I love), feel like I am being completely lied to by dealer. The car was always in RWD unless road conditions were such that it would auto shift to AWD. Up until a couple weeks ago... Now it stays in AWD and never reverts back. I was told temp under 70 would cause that... I am not technician but I know that isn't right. I will be taking it to a private auto tech to get this investigated. It's under warranty and bet it is why they are telling me there is nothing wrong.

I have a 2009 Dodge Charger. It has been a wonderful car for four years and now that I have paid it off and reached 135,000 the car is starting to lose power. I have lost power several times on the highway at a speed of 60 or more. I don't know what is the problem and can't seem to get answers...

Some small details and annoyances - had the same O2 (oxygen) sensor replaced twice under warranty, Bluetooth module replaced, squeaky dash, 18" wheels w/ clearcoat that scratches pretty easily, and a couple small things - but as far as reliability and overall performance and enjoyment of the vehicle? That's been great. Plenty of power, pretty good quality materials inside and out, runs strong, shifts well, gets pretty good highway gas mileage (25-27mpg with a Hemi V8!), it looks great, and the maintenance on it so far has been pretty simple and not very expensive over the first 30,000 miles. Very happy with it so far. I am not disappointed at all with my purchase.

I purchased a used 2011 Dodge Charger in 2012. I have had nothing but issues since after having the car for 6 weeks. The 1st issue was the headlight. I drove the car and opted to not pay for the repair because there was already a recall on certain models. It was eventually recalled. The next issue was the door handle. It was recalled and fix. The 3rd issue, I was driving to work at 6a in pouring rain. My car completely turned off with no power at all. I had to pay to have the car towed. I then paid to have alternator replaced. The alternator was eventually recalled and Dodge reimbursed me.

Purchased a 2013 Dodge Charger R/T with barely over 17,000 miles. It now has 45,000 miles and several days ago I noticed smoke coming from the hood and coolant pouring from the front of the car. My water pump already went out along with the thermostat. Water pump is covered under power train warranty but the rest is not, making it a couple-hundred dollar problem with cost of labor included. Mostly just an inconvenience, but I've stumbled upon a few similar posts with dodge chargers regarding issues with the water pumps going out. Supposedly, a few spark plugs are already out as well, and the car isn't even close to docking 100,000 miles. Did not expect this with a fairly new car, and a bit disappointed to be honest. Hoping this is the last of the issues with it for a while. I really love this car, the smoothness of how it drives, and its sharp look. I just don't want it to become a pain in the ass.

I have a 2008 Dodge Charger R/T with 131k miles on it. I've had it for about 2 years and have done extensive work on it to make it look much better than it was stock. Needless to say I get compliments almost every time I drive it. I've only had one issue concerning my vehicle which was when my Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) started shorting out and that was (I believe) due to the massive amount of electrical additions and wiring I've done under the hood. Take care of this car well and it will take care of you.

The engine on my 2006 dodge charger started knocking and making noise, took it to the automotive shop. They say I need a new engine, also I had transmission issues, the car jerking and brake issues.

2011 Dodge Charger. Went from loving this car to hating it. Just over 3 yrs old (bought new in Mar 2012) and it seems every week there's something else not working on it. Took it in yesterday to have blind spot detection diagnosed, the dealer said it probably needs a new harness and sensors to the tune of $2500. The dash has rattled in this thing since I bought it and the dealer said it was just a loose clip under dash. It was not. In twice for that and now no warranty so now have to live with that.

My 2007 Dodge Charger rt has 93,333 miles and it the motor has to be rebuilt! After tender loving care our car has failed us! I should say Dodge failed us by producing bad Heimi engines. When I attempted to start the engine, it sounded like a belt broke. It was the piston shattering inside cylinder number 4!!! Last year I had to replace several sensors like the electronic throttle control, oil sending unit and crankshaft sensor. Very costly!!! Before the engine failed last Thursday, the charcoal canister is clogged from a flaw gas tank design.

I purchased my son a new Dodge RT in 2008. He has only 56,000 miles on the car as of 2015. The car is already having motor problems and 2 or more recalls. Recalls are not fixed in a timely manner. You have to call dodge to find out about any recalls. They do not notify you about the recalls. I would not recommend this car for to my worst enemy. It's a beautiful car on the outside but so ugly under the hood (motor). NO GOOD!

I have 2014 Dodge Charger bought 11 months ago. Heater on driver side will heat. Called dealer where I bought and was told tech would return my call. That was 2 weeks ago and not heard from them! Bought at All American Dodge, Midland, TX.

2008 Dodge charger - Wow! After reading the same complaints about this model vehicle losing power while driving. This is overwhelming. I haven't heard of this complaint from anyone else until logging on here. It happened to me again this evening. Thank God I had just got off the fwy! I immediately called the dealer for them to tell me that he couldn't think of anything off the top of his head. Something definitely has to be done before someone dies! This is DANGEROUS!!

I have a 2011 Dodge Charger and seem to always have it worked on. Every recall they has come out has happened to my car. Melted wires in the front headlight was the first problem. This happened before the recall so the warranty covered it. Car almost caught on fire when the alternator went. The driver's side heat sensor went out, the air recirculation function works maybe 10 percent of the time. All this happened before 50,000 miles. And this week the fuel pump went out at 55,000 miles, $850. What a piece of crap. Tried to talk to someone at Dodge and the live chat told me there is no person that I can call and talk with. I will never buy a Dodge again. My first and last Dodge product.

I bought my brand new 2014 Charger RT in 02/2015. After 3 months check engine light was on. I brought it to dealership. They said it's engine problem and they replaced 1 of the cylinder - took like 2 months get it back. Now it's only 14000 mileage and check engine light is on again. Hope it's not same failure.

I have a 2014 Charger R/T with the 5.7 Hemi. I've had the car a year now and it has just over 18k miles on it. It has now been to the dealer three times for what sounded like a "lifter" issue when I start the engine. Cold or hot and if it sat for a while or not, I would get this noise every so often. The first two times the dealership replaced lifters and tappets on both sides of the engine. As I was leaving with my "repaired" car after the second trip, I noticed that the engine was still making a "ticking" sound like it was low on oil. I never left the lot with it and gave it right back to them. That was on a Monday and by Thursday of that week I had not heard from the dealer, so I called them. What a waste of a quarter that was... I asked the condition of my car, and what they had found, and I was informed that they did not know what the problem was, and they were waiting to hear back from the manufacturer.

I bought my 2013 Charger into the dealership SEVERAL TIMES because the electrical was acting funny. Each time, they said it was the radio or some module and kept having to replace it. But it keeps doing the same thing. I have even been locked in my car. My electrical keeps shorting out my battery and damaging things. Last night it was flashing and radio acting funny and I could smell a electrical cooking type of smell. Then I lost all control and had to drift into oncoming traffic through a neighborhood and use a curb to stop. MY 2 year old son was with me. I was told by the dealership to call the manufacturer that it's probably a lemon. When I tried to get the number NO ONE would give it to me. 2 and half years and this thing is UNSAFE TO DRIVE.

Have a 06 Dodge Charger.. Beautiful car to look at but a piece of crap to drive. Nothing but a headache for the last 5 years. I've replaced the shifter, rocker panel, water pump, alternator twice. SMH. Timing belt, idler pulley. Just today had the radiator and thermostat replaced and the ** still dropping coolant. WHAT THE HELL DODGE!!! You think we are made of money. I feel like driving it off a damn mountain. Not fair at all. There should be some kind of lawsuit against Dodge. If I knew then what I knew now never would have bought this piece of crap!!! Good luck to whoever buys a Charger. Hope you're rich. SMDH!!!

2006 Charger RT HEMI - I just love this beast! It has to be one of the best cars I have ever had. I love everything about it. It is "Go Mango", the burnt orange color. It rocks, blows everything off the road, stereo is awesome, GPS, heated seats, orange stitching in the seats, the most comfortable seats ever. I LOVE MY CAR! Special edition they only made 4000 of them.

I bought a 2007 Dodge Charger 3 years ago. Didn't even have it 3 months before the timing belt snapped and since then I have been replacing things I have never heard of on this car. I went to start it one day and it wouldn't turn over. I replaced the battery and started her up. The engine made a very loud ticking noise. I took it to a dealership and they said that the engine was getting ready to seize up. I called Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep manufacturer and they blew me off. Long story short, I have a car I still owe money on and can't drive it. I am all for a class action lawsuit and I will never buy a Dodge product again.

I have a 2007 AWD Charger - I love my car. Have not had one problem since the day I bought it. Then tonight out of the blue I hit a set of railroad tracks - the bump wasn't bad but immediately my check engine light, my abs light, my traction control light, and my esp light came on then the car started acting like the front end was locking up and I literally could not drive over 35 mph. Has anyone heard of this or have any idea what the heck happened?

I purchased my 2014 Dodge Charger SXT Blacktop back in September 2014, brand new right off the truck. 8,500+ miles now. So far I had to fix loose heat shield on exhaust, motor for sunroof, and maybe an airbag recall. Checking for that now.

I am writing this complaint for safety concerns. I have an 2009 Dodge Charger and I have been driving and the car will just cut off. I have researched this issue and found out that many Dodges are having the same issues. Because of this issue 2008 and 2007 Dodge Chargers have been recalled. But not 2009 even though we are having the same problems. When I went to the dealership to get my car checked out the mechanic told me that the recall for ignition key modes is the same exact problem I have but not my year. I was told 2007 and 2008 Chargers only qualify even though the 2009 has the same problem. This isn't good practice as far as safety goes, Lord forbid someone is driving on the highway going 40-65 mph and this happens.

I have a 2006 Dodge charger RT Daytona at 120,000 and one day right after doing some errands before school, it started but had a rough idle and so I turned it off. It wasn't cranking over and so I did all regular checks with a no crank no start situation. I checked into my starter and found out that the motor was going out so I replaced it and tried to start. Nothing changed and so checked the battery and just changed it out since it was under warranty. Finally gave up trying and sent it in to find out the engine is seized up. Found out that I have two main choices but they are both out of my budget. Has anyone started a class action lawsuit about these engines? I know that Dodge won't do anything since it's not running and I still owe money on it. This one thing has made a domino effect on my life and is making my life hell. I really want to hold Dodge accountable for all of us who have put our trust and money into Dodge vehicles.

I have a 2008 Charger RT 5.7 Hemi. The car has 70000 miles on it. I bought it in 2011 used at the dealership in Carlsbad, CA. I have taken very good care of this car and it is in pristine condition. All oil changes and maintenance were done exactly to manufacturer's recommendations. Two days ago, I was driving home. Got home, hopped out of the car, ran inside, changed clothes and got back in the car. To this point the car was running perfectly and I've never had a problem with it other than replacing the original battery. When I got back in the car and attempted to start it, it would crank but it wouldn't turn over. After the third try, the engine made an ugly rattling sound. Then the motor seized. Had it towed to a friend's shop and it had dropped a cylinder. Out of nowhere with no warning. Dodge will do nothing. I still owe 11k on the car that is now a paperweight. Thanks Dodge.

I had a wonderful start to a brief vacation. Rented a 2014 Charger with 2,900 miles from Hertz. My journey to a hotel was nothing less than a nightmare. Instrument panel lit up like xmas lights, trans seized to shift, engine seized and died on the highway. It amazes me to experience a car with only 2,900 miles to completely seize on the highway. But after reviewing numerous reviews about the Charger, I guess many are experiencing similar issues with their Chrysler product. Good going Fiat Chrysler.

My gear won't shift out of park due to a defect in the dodge. I have also had to replace the tie rods and just got a notice from Dodge that the airbags are deadly because metal will fly but they do not have parts to repair this!!! So if the airbags deploy, I can possibly be killed!!! Out hundreds of dollars because of the gear!!

Bought 2014 Charger in October 2014. Alternator recalled in February 2015, replaced with no problems. My car is great so far, there are too many negative comments.

Back a few months ago I received a letter regarding a recall on my 2012 Dodge Charger that was purchased in 2013. It stated alternators were burning up and causing fires in cars if not replaced. The letter also stated that the parts were not yet in and another letter would be sent when the parts arrived to the Dodge dealers. (I'm still waiting on that second letter by the way) On 7/24/02015 I went to leave work for lunch and my car wouldn't unlock or do anything. The battery was completely dead. I had to call someone to come jump my vehicle off (which I spent an hour trying to do so) but because the battery was so drained, an hour of jumping it off still resulted in my vehicle being dead and not capable of doing ANYTHING!! I went to the part store to have the battery tested and the cell was bad, so I purchased a new battery (which was my only option besides paying for towing expenses).

I purchased a 06 Charger June 13, 2015. It had 135,000 clean inside and out. Never owned any other than Chevy and Cadillac, but I like the look of Charger. My brother owns a 2010, and my son has a 2013. Driving home from work as a custodian which don't make much, after having the car for 1 mo. and 4 days I came to a stop after getting off the freeway and my car was running rough, sound like a Diesel engine. It was running hot and lights all lit up on the dash. Found out piston drop off in the motor. Checked out recalls and complaints, I guess I'm not alone. I'm down for a class act. Email me at **. I can't afford a car note plus insurance; now 4000.00 for a used engine that may go out again due to faulty engines.

I have a 2012 Dodge Charger. It is a nice car, handles well. I was driving down the highway when my air cut off and then my radio went off. I tried to turn it back on and my steering wheel locked up while I was going 65 miles per hour approaching a curve. I hit the brakes and the brake pedal was stiff. I put the car in neutral and pushed the emergency brake and my car came to a stop just off the side of the road. I thought I was going to die. I had my car towed to the dealership where they charged me for a diagnostic test and said nothing was wrong, I need a new battery. After I purchased a battery and placed it in the car, my car was fine for a couple of weeks then it died again when I was driving. I looked on a couple of Charger forums and had to replace the alternator. It has been ok since but I always wonder when it will happen again. Hopefully my kids will not be in the car. Good luck.

My 2006 Dodge Charger RT - Replaced tire rods twice, never hit potholes. Engine shut off Once while driving. Wouldn't start a separate time and ignition was bad. Still catches when I start the car. Hydroplane on wet roads. Took in for AC service and had to replace airbag for recall I was never notified about. Not good.

I just bought a Dodge Charger 2014 in February 2015 and in March 2015 took it to the dealer. It cut off on me. It was in service for 16 days. They told me the car was not sending signal to the motor so that's way it shut off on me. After that I taken it 4 more time with the same reason issue. It also would take a while to turn on. Same problem 4 times. Also the car jerks while I am driving it. Luckily I have a lemon law. Later will see how that goes. I do not recommend dodge at all. Bad bad bad service. The advisor never answer my phone calls. After it was there 4 different times and I made several calls she never answer I had to go look for her to her office. I give them -1% to dodge.

Have a dodge charger 2007 2.7 engine. I were driving my car one day and the car cut off in the road. Luckily no traffic wasn't behind me. Had wait 2 three minutes to start car back up and yes it been to the dealer. They told me it were the battery and that were not the problem.

As soon as my Charger went over 100,000 miles, the engine locked without warning while on a family vacation. This is a major setback. I am very disappointed in Dodge but I do blame myself because I did not read the reviews on the vehicle first. Dodge is not an upright company and I wish anybody that has a working Charger trade it in asap.

I love my 2014 Dodge Charger. I'm to drive it in the rain because the last few times that I have, it tends to want and hydroplane on me. I really have to hold tight onto my steering wheel just to keep it on the road. I've got high performance tires on it. I have to call my dealership and see if that's what's causing it. I hope I find out because I do love my car, but at the same time I don't want to end up in ditch or god forbid, worse!!!

Love the car since I've gotten it. Has a 124k miles still running strong only problems I had at 100k was the car shutting off every time I stopped at a stop sign or at a red. I was really upset at first but it ended up just being the knock sensor that had to be replaced. Other than that it’s never shut off at any stop sign anymore. At around 114k I had to the alternator. Still running strong. Right now I just need change brakes and replace my suspension due to some 22 inch rims I had on them. I recommend never putting rims on any car now that I see the how much of a problem they cause. Plus it uses up a lot of gas filling up every 3 days.

My engine stopped with no warning. Manufacturers fault. It has cost over $7,000 and still going. Manufacturers will not recall. Never buy again. Many people with the same problem and the manufacturing company knows about and will not do anything. Class action lawsuit is a must.

Chrysler/Dodge and Toxic car syndrome - In 2012, my son had left for college. I was single again, and I wanted a sports/muscle car. I did a lot of research, (as I love cars and have owned 25-30 cars over the last 3 decades). I have had Volvos and VWs, Mercedes and Lexus, Audi and Saturns, Mitsubishi, Chevy Volts and more. I knew that I wanted an American car and ended up deciding to buy a 2012 Dodge Charger SXT Plus Blacktop. It was a V6 with an 8 speed Pentastar transmission. Everything looked great on paper. Decent Carbon footprint, actually good mileage and a little rocket.

I have a 2007 Dodge Charger 2.7L. My car has almost 200,000 miles on it and runs great. I've fixed things on it here and there but I don't know why people say it has a crap engine. I change the oil reg. If you take care of your car it'll last you a long time. Mine prob has about 100,000 more miles to go.

I own a 2006 Dodge Charger RT that features a 5.7 liter HEMI v8 engine and a 5 speed semi-manual transmission. I have had no serious issues with this car. My only regret for buying this car is the fact that it weighs 4,048 lbs. Other than that, it's pretty great. The engine puts out 340 horsepower and 390 lb/ft of torque from the crank but 270hp and 335 lb/ft torque to the rear wheels. I love the torque this car has to offer but the horsepower isn't very high since the engine only reaches 5,600 RPM stock.

Developed an oil leak at 2600 miles. First Dodge Service stated it was the oil pan gasket. It was replaced and received the vehicle back. Started leaking again Took to Dodge Service where vehicle was bought. That service department said it was the rear main seal. That was replaced and out the door I go. At 3100 miles leaking again. Took back to original dealership again. Chrysler told them to put new engine in vehicle. I told them I did not want car. At taking a $1200 loss of factory accessories and $325 out of my pocket I got another 2014 Dodge Charger. All good so far on the new/replacement Charger at 1200 miles.

I purchased my Dodge Charger new in 2008 at which time the Lifetime Powertrain Warranty promotion was going on. That was a major factor in the decision to buy the car and I was assured that it was legitimate. I was given the opportunity to purchase an additional lifetime bumper to bumper warranty for an additional $2700.00 which I did. I took the car in for service in 2013 and while it was there I asked the service writer ** to perform the inspection.

Purchased a 2008 Charger in May 2011. Had to replace the engine in June 2011. In 2014 needs another engine and now the transmission has gone out. This car has been a total lemon and nightmare for me.

Stopped at stop sign, tried to take off, car would not go, engine light came on. Shut car off, started it back up, car would go but would not shift properly. Called car dealer two days later because it happened Friday night. Engine light had gone off so they said bring in two weeks later. Did not think it was a good idea to drive with these shifting problems and they said it was under warranty.

I have a 2013 Dodge Charger SXT BlackTop and it has been NOTHING but problems. It overheats, my outlets do not work, my paint chips, and much more. The easier question is what has not went wrong with this car. I love it to death I promise but I will NEVER EVER EVER buy another dodge. People buy these cars with their hard earned money and count on them and they try to bandaid your car to get you to keep coming back and spending money.

2014 Dodge Charger Sxt bought new. Dozen or so electronics issues. 8 speed transmissions horrible. Only 7000 miles on the car. Wish I hadn't bought it. Had same issues with my Dodge Journey. Lemon lawed that piece. Warning - stay away, doubt the '15 are any better. I wonder if Ford and Chevy products give this much trouble. It's bad when the local dealers' Service Dept. knows you by name.

In winter 2013, my 2009 Dodge Charger started forming condensation inside all 4 door windows while I'm driving, which quickly turns to ice and greatly limits my visibility out of all 4 windows. My son has to take the ice scraper and scrape the windows off as I am driving! The visibility out of the windows is so bad that I cannot drive my car unless I have a passenger to scrape the ice. I've taken it to the Dodge dealer several times and they keep sealing windows and the spoiler which has not helped at all. Dodge consumer services tells me this is normal for Dodge/Chrysler vehicles and it is "operating as designed".

I leased a 2013 Dodge Charger in April of 2013 and had nothing but major issues with the aluminum wheels and tires. I had to replace two of the cracked wheels that caused low tire pressure. The treads of the tires were worn down within 16,000 miles. I had to replace the tires and bought four new Cooper tires. The exact same thing followed 13,000 miles after my purchase. I have done some investigating and it appears Chrysler is aware of these issues but has failed to focus on fixing this matter. I am on my third purchase of tires and can't afford to keep buying tires for my car. Is anyone else experiencing these issues?

I left my engine running and put the 2003 Dodge Durango in park. When I got out it went into reverse. The door pushed me down. I was hanging on the door so I didn't fall hard onto the parking lot surface. Then the left front tire rolled onto my left leg and stayed there. About 10 minutes passed and someone was driving on a nearby street and saw me on the ground. He came and rescued me. The Durango has about 230,000 miles on it. I have had regular service done on the transmission, fluid and filters. My wife says I must have not really put it into park. I believed that was possible until I saw there were at least 2,000 other cases of that occurring.

Soon after purchasing my 2006 Dodge Charger in Nov 2011, I had to repair wheel bearing, tie rods which caused a loud plopping sound driving over the smallest bumps in the road, costing approx $1200 to repair, early 2012. Problems concerning the thermostat, caused costly repairs twice $250 & $400, soon after. Engine, subsequently, had to be replaced this year (early 2014) after getting scheduled oil changes, which I was informed, 2006 Chargers are known to have numerous manufacturer defects, including engine failures. I am currently experiencing problems concerning the struts and ignition which will cost $460; unfortunately, I do not have money to make these necessary repairs. Are there any recalls concerning my issues that may help remedy my problems? Please help.

I bought in May of 2013 a brand new 2013 Dodge Charge only had 10 miles. I loved this car. At 5,000 miles the check engine light came on. I look in the owner's manual, it said I could possibly have used low grade gas 87 which I had done but I only put 2 gallons. So I filled up the car with 91. It went off. 500 miles later it came on again. Long story I take it to the Dodge dealer, it had 11,000 miles on it and they said it was some part inside the transmission. The car could possibly be there for a month. Dealer said, "I will call you before 5pm." I called at 4:30, the dealer said, "Oh the part came in." I'm skeptical because house appointment when the part is backordered for over a month.

Purchased a '14 Dodge Charger in August '14 and 3 months later, having transmission problems with lagging shifting, shuddering when I come to a stop, transmission "clunks" when placed in reverse, doesn't up shift when starting out (stays in gear and whines out before shifting). This car has just under 3000 miles on it and needs transmission service? Really?

I left car running to warm up. I came back outside 20 minutes later and the car engine is warm but the car is still blowing cold air through the vents. The heater was turned up all the way and was still blowing cold air. I begin driving and the heat is now blowing. So I did it again and this time not as long to warm up. I begin driving and the heat is burning me up. So I've come to the conclusion it's only gonna blow hot air when I'm driving. Why is it like this?

Went to the gas station to fill up my tank when my car got stuck in reverse while trying to park it, was about to step out of the car when my car started rolling back. I thought I had accidentally put it in reverse but nope it was in park but the gears on the dash said reverse. Damn near hit the car behind me rolling back luckily for the damn emergency brake. Had to have my car towed. The tow truck driver knew how to get it back in park so he did. I then called the dealership because I remember there being something on transmission leverages doing something and startling the driver. So I call the dealership on Monday 11-25 and they tell me that the recall isn't covered for my car. What kind of ** is that. It says charger and recall, you would think it would be covered since it falls in that category. Then he tells me there is a recall for my ignition switch but the part isn't in yet. Useless information. And useless service.

I have a 2007 Dodge Charger with roughly 80,000 miles on it. I am the only owner of this car. So far I've had to replace the gear shift mechanism after about 60,000 when it would not move from my driveway (luckily I was home). My car hesitates to start unless you apply the gas pedal while starting. I brought it to Dodge to evaluate (only 50,000 miles at the time). They informed me it was a bad cylinder. $1500. Problem still exists and I am not giving them more money to NOT fix my car.

I bought my 2008 Charger 2.7 @ 65K miles. Within 2 weeks a loud thump was occurring in the front. After realizing the bushings were GONE I replaced them, upper control arms, ball joints, and I don't remember what else, almost $1500 in repairs. Less than two months after that right around 92K miles it spun a bearing and had to rebuild the engine. NEW oil pump (mopar) broke and seized the engine AGAIN so had to pull it again. Fixed that. Then hydraulic tensioner failed and jumped time and bent 10 valves. Zero tolerance engine is right because I have ZERO TOLERANCE FOR JUNK! They have known for years there were major problems with their engines and transmissions and are very professional at blowing people off that purchased their vehicles. NEVER BUYING DODGE AGAIN! That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Very unhappy. I used to love my car, now I'm afraid to drive it and can't wait until I'm rid of it.

My niece and I were nearly killed... My hood began steaming while in Toronto; I pulled over and got towed to an all-night garage... I was advised that the transmission fluid line was rubbing against the fan belt. I could see when shown that indeed it was rubbing against the fan belt and it was worn away.... and leaking profusely... It was a ticking time bomb...it was supposedly repaired, and away I went... I decided not to take the main highway back home; instead I chose a lighter venue... fortunately, there were streetlights.. had it not been for the slowdowns, I wouldn't have noticed when I slowed down, the thin wisp of steam or smoke exhuming from the hood... I suddenly had this odd feeling about me, and I believe, thanks to my emergency response training, that I desperately searched for an open area or parking lot to get to....

I love this car but had to replace 2 motors within 3 months. Now I'm having issues with misting and running hot. I replaced radiator and for performance I have had a tuneup. I'm too irritated.

Bought a used 07 Dodge Charger for our son. Before a year was up it had quit running. Had it fixed once because of the "oil sludge" then it happened again! Checked around and found out this is common in the Dodge Charger. It should fall under the lemon law! Very disappointed! First and last dodge ever purchased.

2006 dodge charger - My doors are rusting from the inside out. I have repaired the outside of the doors 3 times. The rust keeps coming back thru. I sanded down to the metal, primed and painted. Still more rust coming back. Also there is a plastic part in the shifter column. It is connected to a spring. It is made to brake. The shifter will not go out of park. All you have to do to fix it is to remove the blue plastic part. I said that I would never buy another Chrysler product, but I drove the Charger and fell in love. It handles like a Vet. This will be my last Chrysler product for sure this time.

I was driving through a very rare series of summer thunderstorms in Maine. I exited the interstate for a break in Portland and came across a water covered road. Nothing that I haven't seen after a heavy downpour before. There were several cars ahead of me that passed through without incident but the 2014 Charger stalled as I went through. It would not restart. The water didn't even make it to the wheel. I got out (the water was way below the door) and pushed the car out of the puddle. Someone stopped to offer assistance and sure enough we found water in the intake. I am now told that the engine is destroyed. I will never drive a Chrysler again. What's the use of having it if you can't drive it during thunderstorms?

First off I purchased 06 Charger from original owner. Love it because I'm 6'4" but purchased for my wife. Not long after She reached 100,000 her interior lights stopped working. Online research suggests software update. Now all of a sudden she's stuck at a stop sign. Limp Home Mode appears to be in the permanent position because it no longer goes into any gear whatsoever. Nearest dealership is 40 miles away so my sweetie is SOL for now. Would this fall under recall and if not what can I be looking at out-of-pocket?

I bought a 2011 charger 7 days ago. Bought bumper to bumper warranty and everything. This car had 28214 miles when they got 33414 when I bought due to salesman driving well. I'm 30 and excited about my supposedly muscle car and while I'm looking for spot to park and my car overheats in 3 blocks so I shut it down around tons of show cars. Well I called same place been doing business with since 16 and I just finished paperwork that day. Well my tow driver and sales driver I have this taken care of well. They show up with a ford focus with 27 miles in gas tank. Chrysler will screw you, didn't even have 600 miles on it. Thanks, Chrysler. What a joke. I'm gonna trade all 4 dodges I have.

My car was serviced at a local dealership for recall wiring for the headlights...the seat..the radio. My Charger caught a fire while off inside my garage a week later....total lost ...so sad. Hoping Dodge fix this quick.

Twelve days ago my husband bought me a brand new 2014 Dodge Charger SXT BLACKTOP edition. I was so excited and beyond grateful! This was my first brand new car. Only 14 miles on her when I drove off the lot. Day seven I was on a part of I 81 where it's really congested and a lot of road work. I was driving in automatic not Sport mode when all of the sudden the car dragged and the rpms red lined. On the screen it was flashing from D to 3. Somehow it had dropped into 3rd gear all by itself. To make a long story short, I made a decision with my kids in the car: A. Go off the road at a high rate of speed or B. Cause a pile up. I chose to go off.

Today I had my Transmission serviced and also had a Diagnostic test done on it, because my 07 Dodge Charger wouldn't accelerate past 65. When Discount Tires did the Diagnostic test, they found 3 Recalls on the car. 1 recall has been taken care of, but the Dodge Dealership in Madera and Salinas CA, told me that there are no recalls on my 07 Charger and that only Dodge can look in the Computer and see if there are any recalls. Anyone with Helpful information can email me at **.

I went to take my brother to the airport and my car was stuck on park. Won't move. I called Dodge dealer to see if there was a recall. They said no. I also told about my sunroof leaking water in back of my passenger seat. They also said there is no recall on that. Anyway, I took my car to the mechanic to get my car out of park and spend $350 to get it fix but I still have the sunroof problem and now I'm seeing bubbles on my door and now recently I see another one. I'm just spending money but no recalls on none of these problem.

Dodge Hemi 2007 - The problem now which only the dealer can handle is not that my car is stuck in park, but is shifts gears on its own and has stalled on me a few times while driving. The stalling I got fixed without going to the dealer. The new issue is now the charger not only losses power sometimes, but will be locked in gear D8 when I start the car, or if its not it will pop into D8 while I am driving. Can you imagine being on the freeway driving and your car all of a sudden won't go past 20 miles per hour, trying to force yourself over to the slow lane as not to cause an accident?

The housing that surrounds the gearshift is not attached to anything. It just floats around a bit. When you attempt to put the car in park, it frequently sticks in reverse. In drive through, car wash, gas station, dropping kids off... frequently. I got out of my car to get the mail, confident that my car was in park... It wasn't. I closed the door and the car drove off in reverse without me. It crashed through our fence. I was lucky in this instance in that I didn't run over anyone. I feel like this is a disaster waiting. So Dodge sends an independent investigator who confirms "there is no liability or error with the car's transmission" "OK!" Right... I had specifically demonstrated the problem at the local dealership. So for the record, there is a problem, and I do understand the hope to avoid a recall, but this is a real problem. I could care less that it happened to me, I paid my deductible and my insurance paid the rest of my $4000 assumption. That's it. I'm venting.

After fueling up my Charger it will stall in the middle of traffic. NOTE: This is not because of over filling the tank. You can fill it 3/4 to 7/8 or higher and still get the stall at times. After refueling the stall will happen within a mile or so of the fueling station. The car can be restarted after a few tries but will continue to behave this way for several days. U.S. Department of Transportation investigation number is PE 13-016. It appears that over time the valves on 2006 Chargers, Magnums, and Chrysler 300s will "stick" and allow raw fuel into the purge line after refuel. Chrysler is still refusing to cover a lot of the VINs on the 2006 Chargers that are having the stalling issue after refueling. I would suggest that anyone having this issue please go to the NHTSA website and log the issue to have the investigation reopened.

2013 Dodge Charger. Update 03/11/2014: So I finally contacted the Chrysler Customer Service number and was advised that they were aware of the problem and would be forwarding my complaint to "The Back Order Parts Division". What the heck is that??? I had to return the rental that was covered in my warranty because it only provides for 5-days of coverage. (Yes, you have a minimum of 5 days coverage even when parts are back ordered three weeks. I didn't know Detroit was that far away). The Customer service person then told me that the Service Manager would be calling me. Five days later, I still have not heard from the Service manager. I did however, get a call from Chrysler advising me to call the Service department. Why should I have to do that? I'm the customer. They should be servicing me.

I bought my 2012 Dodge Charger SXT on May 12, 2012. When we went to test drive it the battery was dead. The salesman said they would charge it and I could drive it the next day. I test drove the car on the 11th of May, made the deal to purchase the car. We picked the car up on the 12th and drove it home. 6 months later I went out start the car and the battery was dead. Called Chrysler and that had it towed to Huntington Beach Dodge where I purchased it. After 3 days they called and said the car was ready for pickup. They could not find anything wrong with it.

I too had my 07 Charger lock into park. I had to have it towed and it cost me 304 bucks. Luckily we were at a tire dealer and they went out of their way to help me and my two sons. I am hearing this a lot and think this should be a recall as well. Anyone else having any luck with this?

I brought a used 2007 Dodge Charger AWD hemi from Security Dodge out in Amityville NY with 60,836 miles. Car was clean and look like it was in mint condition. Had the Carfax done with all the service reports came up clear and all the work and service work of previous owners done but Security Dodge themselves so I figured I was getting a great car... Boy was I wrong. First problem after 6 months of ownership I stopped to buy some wax for the car. It never started again. Had to get the car towed. They said the computer chip went bad. Well they said it was still under warranty but had to pay labor and reprogramming the car.

I'm a one car owner of my 2006 Dodge Charger. I went out to eat with family and friends. When I returned back to my car, it was stuck in park and wouldn't move. I was stranded for over a period of six hours total. I had to have my car towed to my home that night. The next morning, I had to have my car towed to the dealership. Once I arrived at the dealership, I learned that this is a major problem with the Dodge Chargers. I called corporate. I was told that it was a recall, but not for my car. I would like for Chrysler to take ownership of this matter. I was out of $300.00. It would be okay if it was just one vehicle. Clearly it's a major problem with Chrysler vehicle. I look forward to hearing back from someone immediately. I will not give up.

I purchased a brand new 2010 Dodge Charger in December 2010 from Haddad Dodge. During the purchase, I added a 100k mile extended warranty to cover the car. On Thursday, April 4, 2010, my check engine light came on. I notified Haddad Dodge Service Department of the issue and informed them that I would be dropping the car off to get it fixed. A service department employee later called me via phone and informed me that my vehicle had a blown head gasket and that the extended warranty I purchased would cover everything. I later received a call from Haddad Dodge asking me if I had any proof or receipts of all the oil changes I had on the car. I informed them that the place I've been taking my vehicle to went out of business, and I didn't save any of the receipts because I wasn't aware that I needed them; I was never told when I purchased the car.

I have a 2008 Dodge Charger 2.7. I was driving and the car cut off with no warning. The temp gauge was good, oil level was okay. I tried to start and it wouldn't even turn over. I had it towed to a shop where they told me the engine was jammed and it was caused by a sludge buildup, a known problem from Chrysler. When I saw it, I was shocked. It looked like tar. It was in the engine, all over it.

I have a 2006 Dodge Charger. One month ago, I went out to go to the store and my car would not go out of park. The shifter was stuck. I went online. I saw there was a recall. When I called my dealer, they said it was not on my VIN # but I have seen there were many cars with the same problem. Well, it cost me $150 to fix it, not including the cost for towing and getting to and from work. So I got it fixed. Then two weeks later, I was driving my car. It overheated. I had to pay $95 to have it towed to a Dodge dealer. The fan was not working. They found the fan motor and temp sensor shorted out. Also, there was a recall on fan motors for Chargers and again my VIN # wasn't one of them. How can this be? And while there, they found my right outer tie rod needed to be replaced. I had that done two years ago and also my front tension strut bushings needed to be replaced because they were cracked. The total cost me $2312.72. What can be done about this? Dodge should honor at least the recalls. It seems to me that it should cover all VINs.

2006 Dodge Charger stuck in park. I am the original owner, have 71,000 miles on the car and never had any accidents in the car. On August 21, 2012, the car was stuck in park and will not go in gear. I tried the suggestions online and in the owner's manual. They did not work. The car had to be towed. I was stranded! I see online that this is a common problem with this car. I called Chrysler for help. They assigned a case manager who informed me they were not aware of a problem with this and there was no recall for my model (one of the first to hit the road). The wrecker driver knew how to get it into neutral, said he had personally towed three Chargers and two 300's with this problem. Chrysler would not stand behind their product! $400.00 to repair plus towing and inconvenience of being stranded.

When I came home from vacation and tried to drive my 2006 Charger, I could not get the shifter out of park. I was told that there was a recall on some Chargers for this problem but not my 2006. I had the same problem with my 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 and only had to disconnect the safety switch on the steering column to drive the truck, but there doesn't seem to be a simple solution to moving the Charger to get it in for service on the shifter. Also without a recall, the dealer tells me it will cost $400.00 to repair since I've been told that the problem is plastic parts that get brittle. I feel Chrysler Corp. should be responsible for the repairs.

I had a 2008 Dodge Charger that caught on fire while I'm driving. There is no answer to confirm what happened from the insurance company, nor Chrysler. All I received from Chrysler Corp. is a letter apologizing for the incident. I have read a total of five articles of the same situation.

I have a 2011 Dodge Charger, and drove through some snow that built up in the middle of lane. I was only going about 35 mph, coming up on a stop sign, when this loud noise from under the car started. This was our first snow fall in Michigan. I went to dealership Harold **, here in Kalamazoo MI. They found that the snow had bent the gas tank shield/skid plate. I refuse to believe the snow would have caused that to bend, and brake free of the bolt holding it in place. My mother has had a car here in Michigan for 10 years, and never damaged anything on the underside of her car. The skid plate/shield is made of plastic. I am questioning the quality of their parts, that it could not withstand, going through freshly fallen snow. Chrysler has refused to do anything, saying I damaged it.

In 2008 there was a recall for my 2007 Dodge Charger with a default of the 'transmission shifter interlock lever'. I called Chrysler, they checked the VIN number and stated based on the VIN my car does not qualify for the repairs at no cost, yet the issue is the same as stated on the recall.

I bought a 2007 Dodge Charger on April 4th 2011. On May 9th 2011, I got in the car and it would not go into any gear. I spoke with Chrysler customer service and was told these cars have a recall for a plastic hook which breaks off therefore the hook does not catch a spring which tells lets the shifter change out of park into gear. He told me someone would call me back with further instructions. The next day I was called and told only the 2007 Chargers built after 1-1-2007 were recalled and mine was not covered due to mileage. If the car has a faulty part and it does, should it be on recall also?
