THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 DODGE CHARGER. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE COOLING FAN FRACTURED AND ENTERED THE RADIATOR, WHICH ALSO FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 1,500.

PROBLEM #1: ONE OF THE COOLING FAN BLADES SHEERED OFF AND & FLEW INTO THE RADIATOR. I WAS AT A COMPLETE STOP AND BROKE OFF WHEN I STARTED TO ACCELERATE. I REPLACED THE BROKEN BLADE (DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO REPLACE BOTH) AND RADIATOR. ABOUT A YEAR OR LESS LATER THE OTHER FAN BLADE SHEERED OFF (THE ONE I DIDN'T REPLACE) AND WENT INTO THE RADIATOR. THIS TIME ALSO DURING ACCELERATING AFTER A COMPLETE STOP. DEJA VU. THIS TIME I HAD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE FAN ASSEMBLY (BECAUSE THE BLADES WERE ON BACKORDER) AND RADIATOR. WHEN I WENT TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SAME BLADES BUT ONLY THE 2006 MODEL. PROBLEM #2: IT IS NOW LOOSING PROPULSION. THE POWER STAYS ON IT JUST STOPS MOVING FORWARD. I CAN PUT IT IN PARK & THEN BACK IN GEAR AND IT MOVES, BUT BARELY. IT ISN'T CONSISTENT BUT IT IS TERRIFYING. I HAVE GOOGLED POSSIBLE ISSUES AND IT SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY HAVE LINKED IT TO A BAD PCM. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC BUT OF COURSE IT DIDN'T DO IT WHILE HE HAD IT. I HAVE BEEN TOLD, BY DODGE, THAT THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT CAN DO A FULL DIAGNOSTIC, THAT OTHER DEVICES ONLY COVER ABOUT 30% OF THE PROGRAM. THAT ALONE SEEMS UNFAIR IF NOT ILLEGAL. I CANNOT AFFORD $110 JUST TO FIND OUT WHAT'S WRONG. MY TRUNK LIGHT DOESN'T WORK EITHER & EVEN DODGE CAN'T FIND OUT WHY. IT'S NOT THE BULB, IT'S NOT THE FUSE, AND THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION IS GOOD. ACCORDING TO THEM. I HAVE MORE IMAGES AND RECEIPTS BUT CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO ATTACH THEM.

I WAS IN A CRASH THAT WAS WORSE THEN IT COULD HAVE BEEN IF THE AIR BAG HAD DEPLOYED THE WAY IT SHOULD HAVE I WAS SLAMMED IN TO THE STEERING WHEEL SO HARD IT WHIPPED ME BACK AND FORTH TWICE AFTER I LOOKED DOWN MY AIR BAG RIPPED OUT THE WHEEL AND NOT CAME OUT A LITTLE IT NEVER DEPLOYED THE WAY THE AIR BAG SHOULD MY PASSENGER ALSO WAS SLAMMED HARD IN TO THE DASH BOARD AND THEN HER AIR BAG SHOT HER OFF THE DASH BUT DIDN'T DEPLOY PROPER. AIR BAGS ARE MEANT TO SAVE LIVES AND MY AIR BAG ALMOST TOOK MY LIFE THE PAIN IS IN REAL I COULDN'T WISH THIS ON ANYONE AND NOW I HAVE TO LIVE MY LIFE IN SO MUCH PAIN I HAVE A NEARLY BROKEN NECK WITH ALMOST. EVERY DISK BULGING IN MY NECK AND POSSIBLY BRAIN DAMAGE AND I ALSO HAVE LOST MY JOB AND MY HOME NOW I CAN'T GET HELP AND THE PAIN IS SO NOT FAIR I SUFFER PTSD NOW AND BRAIN INJURY I'M SO LOST RIGHT NOW HAVE SPIN DAMAGE POSSIBLE NERVE DAMAGE AND JOINT DAMAGE ALONG WITH SUVIER HEAD CONCISION POST CONCISION SYNDROME AN MEMORY LOSS ALSO I NOW HAVE MOOD SWINGS I CAN'T CONTROL THIS IS WORSE THEN DIEING I'M HURT SO BAD DUE TO NEGLIGENT PPL

TOOK IT TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP IN TOWN AND THEY TOLD ME THE RECALL L08 WAS ONLY FOR THE V6 MOTORS AND I HAD TO FIX IT MYSELF.

TAKATA RECALL. THIS VEHICLE IS USED BY MY SON WHO CAR POOLS TO SCHOOL. THE DISTANCE IS APPROX 35 - 45 MINUTE COMMUTE EACH WAY. WHILE I HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL , I DON'T THINK THE SOLUTION IS SATISFACTORY. SINCE THIS VEHICLE HAS A PASSENGER MOST EVERY DAY I THINK DODGE SHOULD PROVIDE A LOANER/RENTAL UNTIL THE PROBLEM IS FIXED. LIVES ARE AT STAKE!

I WAS DRIVING WHEN I HEARD A LOUD NOISE. I THEN WENT TO A REPAIR SHOP, I WAS TOLD THAT ONE OF THE BLADES ON THE FAN HAD BROKE AND PUT A HOLE IN MY RADIATOR. I CONTACTED DODGE AND THE LADY I SPOKE WITH DID KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT SHE STATED THAT MY CAR WAS MADE IN A DIFFERENT FACTORY SO I WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. WHICH I THINK IS UNFAIR SINCE I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM LIKE EVERYONE ELSE
