2007 DODGE CHARGER Complaints

I PUT CAR IN THE PARK POSITION TO GET OUT OF THE CAR TO GET SOMETHING. I TURNED AROUND AND MY CAR WAS REVERSING DOWN THE STREET. I HAD TO RUN AND OPEN THE DOOR AND JUMP IN THE CAR TO STOP IT. IT WAS IN REVERSE WHEN I GOT IN THE CAR. I WAS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

TAKATA RECALL - WHILE EXITING A HIGHWAY INTO A SHOPPING CENTER, MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. MY WIFE WAS UNABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE. FORTUNATELY WE WERE ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE BEFORE AN ACCIDENT OCCURRED. THIS EPISODE WAS VERY FRIGHTENING. VERY UNSAFE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT CAUSED THIS, BUT THIS DESPERATELY NEEDS RECALLING. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONCERN IN THIS MATTER. *TR

COOLING FAN BLADES SHATTERED AND PUNCTURED RADIATOR WHILE CAR WAS SITTING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AT IDLE. CAUSED LOSS OF COOLANT AND COOLING SYSTEM FAILURE. NO EXTERNAL CAUSE FOR DEFECT FOUND. COST OF REPAIR ESTIMATED $1000.00

MY 2007 DODGE CHARGER WITH 98,000 MILES JUST THREW A COOLING FAN BLADE THROUGH THE RADIATOR WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, LEAVING ME ON THE SIDE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY. I KNOW THIS IS A RE-OCCURRING ISSUE BECAUSE I AM ON THE CITY COUNCIL FOR A SMALL SUBURB OF HOUSTON AND WE HAD SEVERAL POLICE CARS DO THE SAME THING. SINCE THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT THAT COULD LEAVE THE DRIVER BROKEN DOWN IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION (INCLEMENT WEATHER, LATE AT NIGHT, BAD PART OF TOWN), I BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE RECALLED. THE REPAIR COSTS A LITTLE UNDER $1,000 TO REPLACE THE RADIATOR AND COOLING ASSEMBLY.
