Does my car meet FMVSS safety standards? [XXX] [XXX] PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Back up camera goes out (turns gray/ fizzes out) occasionally and stays on when car is in drive

HAD VEHICLE IN REVERSE, PUT VEHICLE BACK IN DRIVE OR PARK AND REAR VIEW ASSIST CAMERA IS STILL SHOWING ON THE SCREEN FOR AT LEAST 10-12 SECONDS AFTER GEAR IS NO LONGER IN REVERSE. JUST GOT CAR IN JANUARY OF 2021, CAN?T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HAPPENS. HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES NOW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 DODGE CHALLENGER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, THE BACK OVER PREVENTION IMAGE REMAINED ON SCREEN FOR UP TO 10 SECONDS. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. UPON INVESTIGATION, THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V191000 (BACK OVER PREVENTION) HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 8,000.

BRAKE LINES IN ENGINE BAY ON PASSENGER SIDE ARE ROUTED TOO CLOSE TO THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD CAUSING THE INSULATION TO MELT. THE MELTED INSULATION WAS FOUND BY MY INDEPENDENT MECHANIC DURING A ROUTINE INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE. THE MECHANIC NOTED THAT THIS COULD BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO BOILING BRAKE FLUID AND RECOMMEND GETTING THIS FIXED AT DODGE UNDER WARRANTY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

I HAVE A 2019 CHALLENGER R/T WITH THE 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. IT HAS A PROBLEM WHERE IT WILL POP OUT OF FIRST GEAR INTERMITTENTLY AND I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER 7 TIMES IN THE 7 MONTHS I HAVE OWNED THE CAR AND THEY HAVE FAILED TO FIX IT. I HAVE PROVIDED 2 VIDEOS ONE A MONTH AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR AND ONE THAT HAPPENED LAST WEEK TO PROVE IT IS A CONTINUOUS PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN ALMOST REAR ENDED MANY TIMES BECAUSE THE CAR WILL POP OUT OF GEAR FROM A STOP. IT IS DANGEROUS AND DODGE HAS FAILED TO EVEN ATTEMPT TO FIX MY VEHICLE. I HAVE REPLICATED IT WITH A DEALER EMPLOYEE IN THE CAR AND HAVE BEEN TOLD BY DEALERSHIP EMPLOYEES WHEN THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS I JUST NEED TO ?PULL IT OUT OF GEAR AND PUT IT BACK IN TO GEAR?. IT IS DANGEROUS AND I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR. IT HAS HAPPENED TO MY MOTHER AND MYSELF WHILE DRIVING AND I DON?T WANT HER TO BE INJURED OR MYSELF TO BE INJURED BECAUSE MY CAR IS STOPPED AT A GREEN LIGHT. IT IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM AND IT HAPPENS AT LEAST THREE TIMES A MONTH BUT UP TO FOUR TIMES A WEEK.

DRIVER AND PASSENGERS WINDOWS GO UP AND DOWN WHEN CAR SITS OVERNIGHT WHICH DRAINS THE CAR'S BATTERY.

P1DAB-00,U1412,P0716. VEHICLE HAS SHOWN CODES ABOVE FOR 5 PLUS MONTHS. CODES CAUSE VEHICLE TO SHIFT BETWEEN GEAR RANDOMLY. I HAVE TAKEN VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP BUT PROBABLY WAS NOT RESOLVED; THE DEALERSHIP STATED THE PROBLEM WAS THE SPEED SENSOR, SO THE SWITCHED THEM OUT ONLY TO FIND OUT LATER IT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. VEHICLE IS UNSAFE; ON ONE OCCASION THE VEHICLE SHIFT FROM THE 8TH GEAR TO THE 3RD WHILE ON THE FREEWAY ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. PLEASE RESOLVE ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE IS GRAVELY INJURED.

WHEELS: MY FRONT LEFT WHEEL TENDS TO FEEL LIKE IT HITS SOMETHING WHEN I TURN MAKING A THUMP SOUND . CAMERA: STAYS IN REVERSE WHILE SHIFTED / ALSO GEAR

THIS IS MY 2ND DODGE CHALLENGE I'VE OWNED. MY FIRST ONE WAS A 2017 R/T. THE REASON I MENTION THIS IS BECAUSE ITS THE SAME ISSUE I HAD WITH THE OTHER ONE. I KEEP UP WITH ALL THE MAINTANCE AND TAKE CARE OF MY CARS. THE PROBLEM FROM WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD IS THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND THERE'S ALSO A KNOCKING SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE. ITS EXACTLY LIKE THE FIRST ONE I HAD AND TRADED IN. I COULDN'T GET IT FIXED BECAUSE ITS NOT COVERED IN THE FACTORY WARRANTY OR IN THE EXTENDED WARRANTIES I BOUGHT. SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AND DODGE WANTS ME TO PAY HUNDREDS JUST TO LOOK AT IT WHICH I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO DO WITH A CAR THAT HAS LESS THAN 30,000 MILES ON IT AND ITS SOMETHING THAT I FEEL AND BELIEVE IS THEIR FAULT. I KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE BECAUSE EVERY MECHANIC, OIL CHANGERS I'VE GONE TOO I ASK THEM ABOUT IT AND THEY TELL ME SO MANY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS COMPLAIN ABOUT THE SAME THING. I HOPE YOU CAN HELP. THANKS
