2011 DODGE CHALLENGER Complaints

CAR IS MAKING A WINDING NOISE UNDER HOOD, SMELL STRANGE ODOR. CAR STALL WHEN I STOP BEED JUMP

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AND MY DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW STARTED GOING UP & DOWN. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC & SAID IT WAS THE DOOR MODULE & SWITCH THEY BOTH GOT REPLACED & I STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM PLUS IF CONNECTED IT KILLS THE BATTERY.

STRANGE NOISE COMING FROM ENGINE , RESULTING IN POWER FAILURE. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO A GAS STATION AND CALL AAA. AAA GAVE MY BATTERY A JUMP BUT THEY TOLD ME THAT THE ALTERNATOR IS DYING AND UNABLE TO RECHARGE BATTERY. LOOKS LIKE THERE'S A RECALL FOR 3.6L ENGINE FOR ALTERNATORS, BUT I HAVE A R/T V8 AND I'M HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THIS SHOULD ALSO BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AS THIS IS DANGEROUS AND SOUNDS LIKE THE EXACT SAME ISSUE .
