• 12/17/2014· EXTERIOR LIGHTING

  IN AUGUST OF 2011 I HIT A LARGE PIECE OF SEMI TIRE TREAD. I REALIZED BEFORE WE RETURNED HOME TO IOWA THAT I HAD NO TAIL LIGHTS.IN JANUARY 2012 I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED IT TO FIND OUT WHY THE CAR HAD SUCH A BAD SHINY AND THE TAIL LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING. THE FRAME WAS BENT FROM THE TIRE,THE TRANSMISSION ALSO T SOME DAMAGE AND OF COURSE THE CAR WAS SERIOUSLY OUT OF ALIGNMENT. WHEN THE CAR WAS RETURNED THE TAIL LIGHTS WERE WORKING. ABOUT A YEAR LATER I WAS PULLED OVER AND GIVEN A WARNING BECAUSE MY TAIL LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE OF THE TAIL LIGHTS. ONCE AGAIN THEY WORKED WHEN I PICKED IT UP AND I DIDN'T THINK ABOUT IT AGAIN. THEN RECENTLY I WAS PULLED OVER AGAIN, NO TAIL LIGHTS AND A WARNING. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALERSHIP, TOOK MY CAR IN(THIRD TIME), LIGHTS AND TRUNK WERE WORKING PROPERLY. I DECIDED TO CHECK MY LIGHTS WHEN I GOT HOME AND GUESS WHAT, NO TAIL LIGHTS. I NOW DRIVE WITH MY FLASHERS ON SINCE THE LAST PULLOVER. I AM TAKING THE CAR BACK ON THURSDAY, DECEMBER 18, 2014. THIS IS TRY NO. 4. I ALSO FOUND OUT WITH THAT MY LIFE TIME WARRANTY ON MY CAR NO LONGER EXISTED. I HAD RECEIVED A CARD TO BRING MY CAR IN TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES LEAVING A MESSAGE EACH TIME WHICH INCLUDED MY PHONE NUMBER BUT NEVER RECEIVED A CALL BACK. AT THIS POINT I DECIDED IT MUST NOT BE A BIG DEAL SINCE NO ONE WAS RETURNING MY CALLS. I DON'T BELIEVE THE CAR SAYING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS AFFECTING MY WARRANTY. I DO FEEL FORTUNATE THAT I DON'T HAVE TO DRIVE MY CAR A LOT AFTER SUNDOWN AND THAT I HAVE NOT BEEN AWARENESS IN THE DARK. I WAS INJURED IN 2001 AND DON'T NEED ANY FURTHER INJURIES TO MAKE MY PAIN LEVELS WORSE THAN THEY ARE NOW. I SAW A YOUNG GIRL ON TELEVISION TONIGHT AND IS NOW PARALYZED BECAUSE SOMEONE HIT IN THE REAR END OF HER PARENTS CAR. *TR

  IN THE LAST FOUR MONTHS, MY 2009 DODGE CHARGER HAS STALLED THREE TIMES WITHOUT WARNING. IT DOESN'T SPUTTER, THEN DIE. IT JUST SHUTS DOWN. THE FIRST TWO TIMES, I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT. THIS LAST TIME, 12/08/14, I WAS TURNING IN A PARKING LOT. I LOST MY POWER STEERING AND MY POWER BREAKS. I HIT THE CONCRETE BASE OF A LIGHT POLE HARD ENOUGH TO BLOW OUT MY FRONT DRIVER-SIDE TIRE AND BENT THE TIE ROD. THERE IS QUITE A BIT OF DAMAGE TO THE FRONT QUARTER PANEL, BUMPER AND BROKE THE HEADLIGHT. NOT TO MENTION, IT HAS GIVEN ME WHIPLASH. I HAVE NOT SEEKED MEDICAL ATTENTION AT THIS TIME, BUT I HAVE HAD IT BEFORE, AND AM QUITE CERTAIN I HAVE IT AGAIN. I AM NOT CERTAIN AS TO WHY THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY??? I HAVE READ THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, BUT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL. I HAVE SEEN OTHER ISSUES LISTED ON THIS SITE REGARDING THIS PARTICULAR CAR. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE A TPMS ON ONE OF MY TIRES AS WELL. I HAVEN'T LOOK AT ALL THE COMPLAINTS. BUT I ALSO HAVE AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH MY CAR NOT STARTING, NUMEROUS TIMES A WEEK. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AT LEAST THREE TIMES, AND THEY CANNOT EVER GET IT TO DUPLICATE. WHEN I TURN THE KEY, IT JUST TURNS OVER LIKE IT IS GOING TO START, THEN SHUTS DOWN, WITHOUT A SINGLE SPUTTER. KIND OF LIKE HOW IT IS JUST SHUTTING DOWN WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE BATTERY IN MY KEY THINKING THAT WAS THE ISSUE, NOTHING HAS HELPED. I WOULD LIKE TO ADD MY INFORMATION INTO THE GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THIS PARTICULAR CAR. AFTER TODAY'S INCIDENT, MY HUSBAND WANTS TO GET RID OF IT. I LOVE MY CAR, I JUST DON'T LOVE THE ISSUES I AM HAVING WITH IT, ESPECIALLY NOW THAT I AM HURT. I AM JUST THANKFUL I AM DID NOT HIT OR HURT ANYONE ELSE, DUE TO THIS MECHANICAL FAILURE. *TR

• 12/07/2011· ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

  I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED IN SEPTEMBER 2010. THE VEHICLE HAD A CLEAN CAR FAX REPORT WHEN I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. I DROVE THE VEHICLE TO WORK ON SATURDAY AND BACK HOME SATURDAY EVENING AND PARKED THE CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY. WHEN I WENT TO START THE CAR ON MONDAY TO TAKE MY KIDS TO SCHOOL THE CAR DID NOT START. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC ASSUMING IT MUST HAVE BEEN THE STARTER. TO MY DISMAY THE MECHANIC TOLD ME I NEEDED A COMPLETE VALVE JOB FOR $2,000.00 HE TOLD ME TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE DEALER TO SEE IF THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY FOR ENGINE FAILURE CAUSE IT IS NO WAY A 2009 SHOULD NEED A THIS TYPE OF WORK THIS SOON. HE CHARGED ME $84.00 FOR HIS INSPECTION FEE AND DIAGNOSIS. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO JEEP /CHRYSLER DODGE DEALERSHIP IN ONTARIO CALIFORNIA WHERE THEY TOLD ME THE SAME DIAGNOSIS EXCEPT IT WOULD COST ANY WHERE FROM $2,000.00- $4500.00 FOR THE REPAIR. THE DEALER CHARGED A FEE OF $384.00 JUST TO COME UP WITH THE EXACT SAME DIAGNOSIS THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC PREVIOUSLY TOLD ME FOR A FEE OF $84.00. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLERS CORPORATE OFFICE 12/07/2011 AND EXPECT A CALL BACK WITHIN 24 HOURS. TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY I HAD THE DEALER ATTEMPT TO INCLUDE THE REPAIR OF A TIMING BELT AND TENSIONER FOR $400 THAT I DID NOT EVEN NEED. FORTUNATELY I HAD INSPECTED THE BELT MYSELF AND WAS TOLD BY THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC THAT THE BELT AND TENSIONER ARE IN PERFECT WORKING ORDER. I ADDRESSED THIS WITH THE SERVICE ADVISOR AND HE TOLD ME I MIGHT AS WELL GET IT DONE BECAUSE IT IS DUE AT 100K MILES. I AM DISGUSTED THAT THE DEALER WOULD TRY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A CUSTOMER IN NEED OF HELP. THIS UNETHICAL ATTEMPT TO GET MORE MONEY FROM ME MADE ME QUESTION WHAT OTHER FRAUDULENT REPAIRS ARE ON MY ESTIMATE. I BELIEVE DODGE SHOULD STAND BY THEIR PRODUCT AND DO THE RIGHT THING. I AM PREPARED TO GO TO THE MEDIA IF CHRYSLER DOES NOT DO THE RIGHT THING. *TR

• 12/03/2019· POWER TRAIN

  THE COMPUTER IN THE TRANSMISSION IS MAKING MY CAR JERK FROM 1ST GEAR TO 2ND GEAR. I HAVE A LIFETIME POWER TRAN WARRANTY YET THEY SAY THAT THERE IS NO "FIX" FOR MY CAR, BASICALLY I HAVE TO EITHER DRIVE IT LIKE IT IS OR BUY ANOTHER ONE AND I DO NOT THINK THAT IS FAIR FOR A LOYAL CUSTOMER LIKE MYSELF. EVERY TIME I CALL, THEY MANAGE TO LOOSE MY LIFETIME WARRANTY, THIS LAST TIME THE CUSTOMER SERVICE PERSON TOLD ME I DIDN'T GET MY TRANSMISSION SERVICED FOR THE 10 YEAR MARK, I TOLD THEM I DID IN MARCH WHEN DODGE SAID IT WAS DUE - HE NOW TELLS ME THAT I GOT IT DONE TOO EARLY TO MAKE MY WARRANTY VALID. WHAT KIND OF MESS IS THAT. I JUST WANT MY CAR FIXED YET DODGE IS TELLING ME THAT THEY ARE NOT GOING TO PROVIDE A PATCH OR EVEN CREATE ONE. WHEN I DRIVE, MAINLY EARLY MORNINGS, MY CAR WILL DO A HARD SHIFT FROM 1ST GEAR TO 2ND GEAR. NO MATTER UPHILL, DOWNHILL, ROUNDING A CURB, STRAIGHTAWAY, HIGHWAY OR STREETS.

  IN AUGUST 2015, MY CAR WOULD NOT START SO I HAD TO REPLACE THE IGNITION MODULE AND PURCHASE A NEW KEY ($1000). ON OCTOBER 30, 2015, I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT NIGHT IN THE RAIN WHEN MY CAR JUST SHUT OFF. I WAS NOT ABLE TO STEER AT ALL BUT I MANAGED TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. EVERYTHING ELSE IN THE CAR WORKED (LIGHTS, RADIO, EVERYTHING ON THE PANEL) THE ONLY THING THAT DID NOT WORK WAS THE CAR. MY CAR WILL NOT START BACK UP. I HAD TO TOW THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. HOW COULD SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN WHEN I REPLACED THE IGNITION MODULE THAT SEEMS TO BE THE CAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM?

• 10/23/2014· ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

  TWO WEEKS AGO I PURCHASED A 2009 DODGE CHARGER. ON TUESDAY OCTOBER 21, 2014, I ATTEMPTED TO START MY VEHICLE AND FOUND THAT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START. ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL I COULD SEE A RED LIGHT BLINK INDICATING THE THEFT SYSTEM WAS ACTIVATED, THE MILEAGE DISPLAYED, AND THE OPEN DOORS INDICATOR WAS ACTIVATED. MY REMOTE ALLOWED ME TO LOCK AND UNLOCK MY DOORS AND OPEN MY TRUNK. I ATTEMPTED TO JUMP START THE BATTERY WHICH WORKED PERFECTLY. I TOOK ADDITIONAL STEPS TO INSURE THE PROBLEM WAS NOT THE BATTERY BY HAVING IT TESTED. THE RESULT WAS 100%. UPON RESEARCHING THE SYMPTOMS ONLINE, I FOUND THERE IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THE WIN MODULE IN MY VEHICLE. I FOUND MORE THAN 100 COMPLAINTS AND YOUTUBE VIDEOS BY OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM YET NO RECALL HAS BEEN CREATED. WHEN WILL CHRYSLER LLC BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS KNOWN AND WELL DOCUMENTED PROBLEM WITH 2009 DODGE CHARGERS AND GIVE THEM SOME RELIEF? IT SHOULD ALSO BE NOTED, A RECALL WAS MADE FOR 2008 DODGE CHARGERS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHAT STEPS I NEED TO TAKE FOR A RECALL TO BE DONE. MY VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY SITTING IDLE. I FEAR HAVING THE SAME EXPERIENCE GM CUSTOMERS HAVE HAD WHERE THE COMPANY IS AWARE OF A MANUFACTURING ISSUE THAT THEY REFUSE TO ADDRESS. I HAVE ALREADY SPOKEN TO CHRYSLER LLC AND MY DODGE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REFUSE TO ISSUE A RECALL EVEN AFTER ACKNOWLEDGING THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH 2009 DODGE CHARGERS. ONE EMPLOYEE EVEN STATED, "I'M SURPRISED THEY HAVEN'T DONE A RECALL YET. I'VE FIXED THIS PROBLEM OVER 1000 TIMES IN THE SHORT TIME I'VE BEEN HERE." *TR

• 10/13/2010· TIRES

  I OWN A 2009 DODGE CHARGER WITH TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR VALVE STEMS AND BY PUTTING CHROME VALVE CAPS ON THEM IT CAUSED THE 2 BACK ONES TO ADHERE TO THE STEMS CAUSING THEM TO BREAK. I WAS NEVER TOLD WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW I COULDN'T CHANGE VALVE CAPS BY THE DEALER, IN DODGES MANUAL,OR IN THEIR WARRANTY, ONLY AFTER THE FACT WAS I TOLD BY A DODGE DEALER THAT I WASN'T SUPPOSE TO DRESS UP MY CAR WITH CHROME VALVE CAPS CAUSE THEY CAUSE PROBLEMS WITH THE VALVES ROTTING TO THE CAPS. DODGE WONT FIX IT CLAIMING ITS AN AFTERMARKET PART,THEIRS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE AFTERMARKET PART ONLY WITH THEIR PART,THE FRONT ARE FINE WITH NO ADHESION WHAT SO EVER. DODGE KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM JUST CHECK THE INTERNET WITH DODGE CUSTOMERS COMPLAINING THE SAME WAY. IF I WAS TOLD THIS OR READ IT IN THEIR MANUAL I WOULD NEVER PUT SOMETHING IN MY CAR THAT WOULD COST ME 300 DOLLARS IN DAMAGES. ALL THE NEW CHARGERS HAVE RUBBER VALVE STEMS NOR TPMS STEMS CAUSE DODGE KNEW THERE WAS A PROBLEM. THE HAVE CONCEALED THIS PROBLEM FROM THEIR CUSTOMERS AND NOW REFUSE TO WARRANTY IT,THEIR SECTION IN THEIR OWNERS MANUAL ABOUT THE TPMS VALVES STATES NOTHING ABOUT WHAT VALVE CAPS TO USE OR ANY WARNING ABOUT PROBLEMS WITH CHROME ALUMINUM CAPS. THEY ARE RIPPING OFF CONSUMERS WHO PUT THEIR TRUST IN THEM. NOW I HAVE TO DRIVE MY CAR WITH A FLASHING DASH LIGHT DUE TO THIS PROBLEM AND ITS QUITE DANGEROUS NOT TO INFORM THE PUBLIC ABOUT THIS PROBLEM WHEN ONE CAN ADHERE AND BLOW WHILE YOUR DRIVING. THE DEALER KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BUT DOESN'T TELL YOU TILL THE PROBLEM OCCURS THEIR NEGLIGENCE AND SHOULD REPAIR THIS ISSUE. THEIRS NO WAY ID CAUSE THIS PROBLEM IF I WAS TOLD WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR. I ALSO SEE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE TPMS ON 2009 CHARGERS I WAS NEVER INFORMED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. *TR
