2010 DODGE CHALLENGER Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 DODGE CHALLENGER. WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW ROLLED UP AND DOWN INDEPENDENTLY. ADDITIONALLY, WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND TURNED OFF, THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW CONTINUED TO GO UP AND DOWN WITHOUT WARNING AND DRAINED THE BATTERY. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT INQUIRED ABOUT TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN NUMBER: 23039. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND OPENED CASE NUMBER: 340007776. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO NHTSA. AFTER DOING HIS OWN ONLINE RESEARCH AND READING SERVICE BULLETINS, THE CONTACT BELIEVED THAT THE WINDOW ACTUATOR WAS THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 39,700.

APPROX., DECEMBER 2017 (DONT REMEMBER EXACT DATE) MY TIRE SENSOR GAUGE KEPT COMING ON BUT THE TIRE IT INDICATED THAT HAD LOW AIR WAS NOT THE CORRECT TIRE. NOW FOR THE LAST FEW WEEKS IT IS ON EVERYTIME I START AND DRIVE MY CAR AND SHOWS THAT THE TWO PASSENGER TIRES ARE LOW (FRONT 24 PSI AND BACK 0 PSI) BUT NEITHER TIRE IS FLAT OR LOW ON AIR, IN FACT NONE OF MY TIRES ARE LOW BUT I CANNOT TRUST WHAT TIRE THE GAUGE TELLS ME BECAUSE IT HAS NEVER BEEN ACCURATE SINCE IT BEGAN COMING ON AT THE END OF 2017. IS THERE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THEM OR IS THERE A WAY TO FIX IT SO IT CALCULATES THE CORRECT TIRES?

MY PASSENGER AIRBAG DASH LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AND I HAVE SEEN RECALLS ONLINE BUT WHEN I PUT IN MY VIN IT SAYS THERE IS NO RECALL. I PURCHASED THE CAR IN FEBRUARY 2015 BUT THE LIGHT CAME ON IN 2017 AND MY MECHANIC SAID THERE WAS A RECALL BUT WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL. I HAVE BEEN CHECKING FOR A RECALL SPECIFICALLY FOR MY CAR BUT I STILL HAVE NOT SEEN IT, EVEN THOUGH THE YEAR AND MODEL OF MY CAR HAS HAD A RECALL AND I AM CURIOUS AS TO WHY.

MY 2010 CHALLENGER RT HAS THE 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION IN IT AND SOMETIMES IT WON'T SHIFT INTO SECOND GEAR, ALMOST SEEMS LIKE THERE IS NO SECOND GEAR THERE, FOUND OUT THERE IS A STAR CASE FOR THE WRONG GREASE WAS PUT ON THE INPUT SHAFTS AND IT'S MESSING UP TRANNY'S AND THE MILES ON MY CAR IS 50,131 AND THE STAR CASE NUMBER STAR CASE#-IT'S K38556860 AND IT'S A VALID CASE AND IT HAPPENED WHEN I WAS DRIVING IT AND ALMOST CAUSED A WRECK CAUSE IT HAPPENED IN A TURN SO I MORELESS HAD TO GO FROM 1ST TO 3RD GEAR

MY 2010 DODGE CHALLENGER SRT8 COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THE ENGINE TURNS OFF AND I LOSE POWER STEERING. IT DOES THIS REPEATEDLY WHILE DRIVING AT ALL SPEEDS. ALL ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS WORK WHEN THIS HAPPENS BUT THE POWER STEERING MAKES IT VERY HARD TO TURN THE VEHICLE WHICH MAKES IT VERY DANGEROUS IN TRAFFIC OR ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK PRESS MY IGNITION START BUTTON TO TURN THE CAR COMPLETELY TO THE OFF POSITION AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. THERE ARE NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS THAT ILLUMINATE AFTER THIS HAPPENS SO THE DODGE DEALER DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. THE LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED MY ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT HAS ILLUMINATED AND MY ESP, TRACTION CONTROL AND ANTI LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM WAS DISABLED AND HASN'T BEEN ENABLED. AFTER STARTING THE CAR THE ESP, TC AND ABS LIGHT ILLUMINATE AND STAY ON. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO THE DODGE DEALER THREE TIMES AND THEY HAVE SAID THAT THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO FIND THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THERE ARE NO TROUBLE CODES OR A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE THAT THOUSANDS OF OWNERS OF DODGE CHALLENGERS ARE EXPERIENCING WITH THE SAME RESULT THAT THE DODGE SERVICE DEPARTMENTS CAN NOT FIND OR DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS RANDOM ENGINE SHUT OFF HAS HAPPENED AROUND 40 TIMES. IT'S HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY IN MOTION AT SPEEDS OF 75 MPH ON THE CITY STREET FROM 30-50 MPH AND WHEN LEAVING AN INTERSECTION AFTER THE STOP LIGHT TURNS GREEN LEAVING ME STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION IN DANGER OF BIENG HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC. IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHILE TURNING IN A INTERSECTION AND THE VEHICLE STOPPING WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC HEADING TOWARDS MY VEHICLE. I HAVE NEARLY BEEN HIT NUMEROUS TIMES DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE PROOF OF MY VEHICLE TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE WITH NO LUCK AS TO WHAT THE DANGEROUS PROBLEM IS.

THE 6 SPEED TRANSMISSION AT 47,000 MILES IS HAVING A VERY HARD TIME SHIFTING INTO AND OUT OF GEAR AT IDLE. WITH CLUTCH PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR IT WILL NOT GO INTO OR OUT OF FIRST GEAR OR REVERSE. AFTER GETTING IT INTO GEAR AND DRIVING THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS FINE. THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE CLUTCH AND GREASE USED ON THIS YEAR MODEL

A BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON MY DASH, A FEW MINUTES LATER SEVERAL INDICATOR FLASHED ON (THE ABS, THE BRAKE, AND ESP/BAS FLASHED ON AND MY VEHICLE POWERED OFF COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS IS EXTREMELEY DANGEROUS AND HAVE BEEN READING THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON DODGE MODELS. HOW CAN THIS BE CORRECTED?! IF THIS IS A REPEAT PROBLEM, WHY ISN'T IT YET A RECALL? THE CAR IS JUST SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING WITH NO WARNING.

TAKATA AIRBAG, FUEL SYSTEM, KEY MODULE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE CAR STALLED WHILE IT WAS STATIONARY I HAD IT TOWED TO DODGE AND THEY SAID THE FUEL PUMPS WE'RE BAD, GOT FUEL PUMPS CHANGED CAR STILL WON'T START. THE LIGHTS IN THE INTERIOR WON'T COME ON, THE DOORS LOCKED AND UNLOCK OUT OF THE BLUE, THE KEY IS STUCK IN THE IGNITION. MY VIN SHOWS RECALLS BUT THERE ARE OTHER RECALLS FOR YR MK AND MODEL BUT NOT LISTED UNDER MY VIN HOWEVER MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES
