2006 DODGE CHARGER Complaints

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE CHARGER. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE, THE ABS LIGHT ILLUMINATES AND THE VEHICLE FAILS TO STOP WITHIN EXPECT PARAMETERS. HE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FOUR TIMES, BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTS. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 27,000 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000.

THE BRAKES SQUELING REAL BAD ROTORS WARP AT 11,000 MILES BEEN HAVIN PROBLEM SINCE I BOUGHT IT

WHILE BRAKING THE VEHICLE SKIDS AND PULLS TO LEFT OR RIGHT AT SLOW SPEEDS.INFORMED DEALER AND DODGE OF ISSUES. HAS NOT CORRECTED ISSUES AS OF YET. 1ST THE DEALER TURNED THE ROTORS LEFT THE OLD PADS THEN WITH IN 3K MILES THE Y REPLACED THE ROTORS AND LEFT THE OLD PADS AND WITH IN THE SAME 3K MILES THEY MACHINED THE ROTORS WHILE ONTO HE CAR AND THEN REPLACED THE ROTORS WITH " POLICE ISSUE" BRAKES FOR MY VEHICLE. I FEEL ALL OF THIS AND MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 9500 MILES ON IT. I FEEL THE MANUFACTURES AND SHOULD GIVE ME FREE BRAKE SERVICE FOR THE LIFE THE CAR APPARENTLY THE VEHICLE HAS MANUFACTURER BRAKE ISSUES. *TR

DODGE CAVALIER HAD A FAULTY SHIFTER AND DEALER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT COULD NOT BE FIXED. HAD IT FIXED , AND IT WENT OUT AGAIN WITHIN 24 HOURS OF PICK UP THE VEHICLE. MECHANICS TOLD ME THAT THEY WILL FIX IT, BUT IT WILL GO OUT AGAIN. *AK

WHILE WAITING AT A RED LIGHT YESTERDAY AFTERNOON, THE CAR SIMPLY DIED WHILE IN DRIVE FOR NO APPARENT REASON. ONCE I GOT IT RE-STARTED, THE TRANSMISSION VIOLENTLY SHIFTED INTO DRIVE FROM PARK. UNABLE TO DUPLICATE SINCE THEN. *AK

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DODGE CHARGER. THE CURRENT MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE IS 15,500. WHEN DRIVING 60 MPH OR HIGHER THE ENTIRE VEHICLE VIBRATES. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR THIS REASON; HOWEVER THE DEALER HAD BEEN UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE CONTACT DID NOT WANT TO GUESS THE FAILURE MILEAGE.

FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE BRAKE ROTOR IS GROOVED. BREAKS SQUEAL. CAR ONLY HAS 12000 MILES. YET BRAKES THAT ARE TO LAST 50-10000 MILES ARE ALREADY IN DANGER OF PREMATURE FAILURE. ROTORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BY MANUFACTURER. A TSB IDENTIFIED IT AS A DEFECT AND NOT A RECALL. *AK

I BOUGHT A DODGE CHARGER IN JUNE 2006 AND STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES IN SEPTEMBER. IT STARTED AS A VIBRATION WHICH NOBODY COULD IDENTIFY. I PAID TO HAVE THE TIRES BALANCED BECAUSE DODGE WOULD NOT COVER IT. THAT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. I AM NOW SITTING AT 16,000 MILES AND WARPED ROTORS WHICH THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT BECAUSE THEY SAY I AM OVER THE 12,000 MILE BRAKE WARRANTY. I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THE ROTORS MYSELF. AS A COMPARISON I ALSO HAVE A CHEVY TAHOE. I PUT THE FIRST SET OF ROTORS ON THAT AT 80,000 MILES. THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM THAT DODGE WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE AND MUST BE ADDRESSED! THANK YOU *TR

I HAVE A 2006 DODGE CHARGER R/T WITH 19,000 MILES. AT APPROX. 15,000 MILES, I NOTICED THE CAR SHAKING SLIGHTLY WHEN BRAKING. DURING A RECENT TRIP THROUGH THE MOUNTAINS, FRONT WHEELS SHOOK VIOLENTLY WITH SLIGHT BRAKING WHEN DESCENDING DOWN A MOUNTAIN. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER WHO SAID THE ROTORS NEEDED RESURFACING. THIS VEHICLE IS NOT DRIVEN HARD AND ROTORS SHOULD LAST LONGER THAN 15,000 MILES. DODGE WOULD NOT COVER ANY COST OF RESURFACING THE ROTORS. MECHANIC AT THE DEALER SAID DODGE OWNERS WERE HAVING A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES ON 2006 CHARGERS. *TR

BRAKE ROTORS WARPED....HAVE BEEN SINCE ABOUT 20,000 MILES. BRAKES HAVE BEEN SQUEALING LONGER THAN THAT. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE UPGRADED CHARGERS ARE BEING SWAPPED OUT FOR SLOTTED ROTORS BECAUSE THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE. I CAN'T KEEP REPLACING PARTS ON THIS CAR DUE TO MANUFACTURER DEFECTS. *TR
