  MY CAR HAD A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT SO I WENT TO AN OFFICIAL DODGE DEALER TO FIX. THEY CLAIMED IT WAS A FAULTY VALVE IN MY FUEL SYSTEM AND CHARGED ME $470 TO FIX. SINCE FIXED, I FILLED UP MY GAS TANK AND NOW WHENEVER I ENTER MY CAR, IT SMELLS OF RAW FUEL. AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES, THE SMELL GOES AWAY, BUT I HAVE FOUND MANY DIFFERENT PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT IT. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY COULD NOT DETERMINE THE REASON IT WAS SMELLING LIKE GASOLINE..I DID NOT TRACK FUEL INTO MY CAR AND WAS NOT STORING FUEL IN MY TRUNK. THE CAR DID NOT SMELL LIKE FUEL BEFORE THE INITIAL REPAIR. *TR

  DRIVING HOME AND BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AND IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE CAR KILLED ON ME MID-RUSH HOUR ON A VERY BUSY STREET BETWEEN 3:00PM TO 6:00PM OUT OF NO WHERE. I HAD HELP TO GET IT OFF THE MAIN ROAD AND ASKED FOR A JUMP START THE CAR STARTED UP AND TEN MINUTES INTO THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND THE CAR KILLED. CALLED A TOW MAN DUE TO THE RISK LEVEL OF NOT KNOWING WHEN THE CAR WILL KILL AGAIN AND MOST IMPORTANTLY WHERE IF I DID THE JUMP STARTED AGAIN. REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR/BATTERY BUT ISSUE REMAINS WITH BATTERY LIGHT COMING ON AND SHORTLY AFTER CAR KILLS. A SLIGHT DIFFERENCE IS THE REPLACED BATTERY ALLOWED CAR TO REMAIN DRIVEN LONGER BEFORE IT KILLS. BATTERY LIGHT COMES ON TWO TO FOUR MINUTES LATER CAR KILLS. (REPLACED BATTERY) BATTERY LIGHT COMES ON FIFTEEN/TWENTY MINUTES LATER CAR KILL.

  2010 police charger fobik started falling out of ignition.. problem continues dealership says no big deal eventually the day came when I tried to turn the car off and I couldn't switch will no longer turn to the off position... Every time I want to turn the car off I have to pop the hood pull a fuse then get in the trunk and disconnect the battery. I went online did a recall search and found that I have no open recalls however I found hundreds if not thousands of people are having this same issue... Dealership said it was on me... I found online a recall notice k08 on cars built between Jan and March with this issue have a recall mines built in Feb but the vin number shows no recall wtf... Plugged in my scan tool which knows my vin and showed me the same recall notice on cars built at that time and on the notice it just has build dates nothin about vin numbers... Goin back to the dealership Monday.. this is an absolutely ludicrous situation that is potentially fatal that Chrysler needs to address!

• 12/09/2019· STEERING,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE

  WHILE DRIVING ON A 2 LANE HIGHWAY WITH TRAFFIC BEHIND ME, THE CAR SHUTS DOWN AND I LOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN. I PRESSED THE GAS REPEATEDLY AND NOTHING HAPPENED. CARS BEHIND ME WERE BLOWING BUT THERE WASN'T MUCH I COULD DO. THE CAR WAS SLOWING DOWN ANYWAY SO I PRESSED THE BRAKE AND THEY WORKED SO I STRUGGLED LIKE CRAZY TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL AND WAS ABLE TO PUT THE CAR INTO A CHURCH DRIVEWAY. THANK GOD THE BRAKES WORKED OR IT COULD'VE BEEN UGLY. I TRIED STARTING THE CAR BUT IT WOULDN'T DO ANYTHING BUT ACT LIKE IT WANTED TO START. IT WASN'T A CLICKING IT WAS MORE LIKE A WINDING NOISE LIKE A RUUU RUUU RUUU. I TRIED TO START IT AGAIN AND IT MADE THE SAME NOISE BUT IT SOUNDED WORSE. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO MY HOME BECAUSE THERE WASN'T A REPAIR SHOP OPENED THAT LATE. I'M GOING TO CALL A MECHANIC TO SEE WHAT THE ISSUE MIGHT BE. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME. IT HAPPENED TWO IN APRIL AND THREE TIMES IN MAY OF THIS YEAR BUT IT STARTED BACK UP. I WASN'T SO LUCKY THIS TIME. THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED I REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR AND THE BATTERY AND I HAD NOT HAD ANY PROBLEMS SINCE DOING THAT. I TOOK IT IN TO HAVE IT CHECKED AND IT WAS PLACED ON A MACHINE AND NO CODES WOULD SHOW UP BUT THE GUY RECOMMENDED I REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR AND THE BATTERY, AND I DID. DODGE REALLY NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ASAP. THIS [XXX] IS RIDICULOUS. IT HAPPENED TO ME WHEN I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE AND ON THE HIGHWAY. HOPEFULLY THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN WITH AN INEXPERIENCED DRIVER OR SOMEONE IN A REALLY HIGH TRAFFIC AREA BECAUSE SOMEONE COULD GET INJURED OR KILLED. I GUESS THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE WAITING ON TO FIX THE PROBLEM. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

  MY SON AND I WERE TRAVELING HOME IN CHARLESTON WV. WE MERGED ONTO THE PATRICK ST BRIDGE IN THE LEFT LANE. THERE WAS A DISABLED VEHICLE IN THE LANE THAT DID NOT HAVE ON IT'S HAZARD LIGHTS. DUE TO RAIN AND WET CONDITIONS, WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES TO STOP THE CAR HYDROPLANED AND HIT DEAD CENTER IN THE REAR OF THE 2006 FORD EXPLORER THAT WAS DISABLED. THE CRASHED CAUSED THE REAR OF MY CAR TO LIFT SLIGHTLY OFF THE GROUND AND MOVED ALL FRONT END COMPONENTS FROM THE GRILL TO THE RADIATOR ETC... INTO THE ENGINE. THIS SHIFTED THE ENGINE BACKWARDS, CRUMPLED BOTH FENDERS, AND ALSO THE HOOD. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AT ALL FOR EITHER PASSENGER SIDE FOR MY SON OR DRIVER SIDE FOR MYSELF. NO ONE WAS INJURED IN THE CRASH. THE CAR IS BEING CONSIDERED A TOTAL LOSS AT THIS TIME. EVERYONE I HAVE SPOKEN TO ARE SHOCKED THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY WITH THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGE THE IMPACT CAUSED. I HAVE SEEN THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2011-2012 DODGE CHARGERS FOR AIRBAGS BUT I DID NOT SEE A RECALL FOR MY MAKE OR MODEL.

• 11/22/2013· STEERING,SUSPENSION

  IN 2011 I PURCHASED THIS 2010 DODGE CHARGER FROM A DEALER LOCATED IN PARAMUS NJ. THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED AS A CERTIFIED USED VEHICLE. AFTER ABOUT 2 WEEKS OF OWNERSHIP, I BEGAN TO NOTICE A SLIGHT PULL OF THE STEERING WHEEL IN THE VEHICLE TO THE RIGHT. I HAD TO MAINTAIN CONSTANT LEFT PRESSURE ON THE WHEEL IN ORDER TO KEEP THE VEHICLE TRAVELING STRAIGHT. I THEN NOTICED THAT WHEN I DEPRESSED THE BREAK AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH THE VEHICLE VIOLENTLY SHOOK. I ALSO NOTICED A NOISY THAT WAS COMING FROM THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL AREA AS IF THERE WAS A PART THAT WAS RUBBING AND WOULD FALL OFF. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE DEALER AND ADVISED THEM OF THE ISSUE. THEY DID SET AN APPOINTMENT UP FOR ME TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER THEY ADVISED ME THAT THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE SUSPENSION AND THAT THE VEHICLE WAS FINE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE AND RETURNED IT TO MY GARAGING AREA. LATER ON IN THE MONTH, I NOTICED THAT THE SAME ISSUE WAS OCCURRING ONCE AGAIN AND I THEN DECIDED THAT I NEEDED TO CALL THE DEALER AGAIN. THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG AND LOOKED AT THE CAR AGAIN. ABOUT 2 MONTHS LATER I BEGAN NOTICING THE ISSUE ONCE AGAIN, ONLY THIS TIME TO FIND THAT THERE WAS ALSO AN ISSUE WITH NOISE COMING FROM THE STEERING COLUMN, THE NOISE SOUNDED AS A WINDSHIELD WIPER AGAINST A DRY GLASS. I DECIDED THAT I WOULD TAKE THE CAR TO MY PERSONAL MECHANIC. MY MECHANIC ADVISED ME THAT THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE TIE ROD ENDS AND THAT THEY WERE A KNOWN PROBLEM. HE STATED THAT THE STEERING COLUMN AS WELL AND THAT THEY BOTH REQUIRED REPLACEMENT. I HAD THE TIE ROD ENDS REPLACED IN NOVEMBER OF 2012 WE ARE NOW IN 2013 AND I AM ONCE AGAIN BEING TOLD THAT THE TIE ROD ENDS ARE BAD AND REQUIRE REPLACEMENT. I AM CONSTANTLY FORCED TO MAINTAIN LEFT PRESSURE ON THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. *TR

  BOUGHT MY 2010 CHARGER IN 2012. SLIGHT ENGINE TICKING WHEN COLD FROM DAY ONE. WORSE IN WINTER, BARELY NOTICEABLE IN SUMMER. AS TIME GOES BY, TICKING IS GETTING WORSE. CHECKED FOR ENGINE CODES AND NOTHING. CHECKED FOR OIL ISSUE AND NOTHING. TICKING IS GETTING MORE OBNOXIOUS, ESPECIALLY WHEN COLD. WHEN THE CAR WARMS UP IT FADES OUT SOMEWHAT. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH AND THERE'S A KNOWN ISSUE WITH 3.5HO ENGINES. ROCKER ARM ISSUE, PINS SHEAR OFF, ETC. DEALER CONFIRMED THIS IS MY ISSUE. BAD ROCKER ARM ASSEMBLY, LASH ADJUSTERS. FACTORY PART NUMBERS END WITH "AA" AND THE NEW REPLACEMENT PARTS WITH "AC." THIS IS ALSO AN INDICATION OF A KNOWN ISSUE. TICKING IS ON STARTUP, LOUDER WHEN ENGINE IS COOL. IT GETS BETTER WHEN IT IS WARM BUT AS OF RECENTLY, IT'S MORE CONSTANT. ROCKER ARM ASSEMBLIES NEED REPLACED ON BOTH HEADS, AND THE ESTIMATED COST IS $1100. WITH SO MANY PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE, YOU WOULD THINK THERE WOULD BE A RECALL. MILEAGE IS 55,446 CURRENTLY.

  MY 2010 DODGE CHARGER WAS UNDER RECALL FOR TIMING CHAIN AND CHAIN GUIDE TENSIONER. WE TOOK IT TO A LICENSED GARAGE THAT'S BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR MANY YEARS. THEY SAID THEY ORDERED THE BIGGEST TIMING CHAIN. IT LASTED 6 MONTHS. WE WERE 7 HOURS FROM HOME ON OUR WEDDING ANNIVERSARY VACATION. WHEN THE CHAIN BROKE WE WERE DRIVING SO THERE WAS EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE. THE GARAGE SAID WE NEEDED A NEW ENGINE. IT'S BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR OVER A MONTH BECAUSE THEY CANNOT FIND AN ENGINE THAT WORKS TO THEIR SATISFACTION. SO, MY CAR IS ONLY 7 YRS OLD AND NOW I DON'T TRUST IT. WHY WAS THERE A RECALL IN THE FIRST PLACE? IS THE 3RD TIMING CHAIN GOING TO BRAKE ALSO? I WONDER WHAT'S REALLY WRONG WITH THIS CAR. BAD ENGINEERING?? I WOULD LOVE AN INVESTIGATION TO BE DONE IF POSSIBLE.
