2014 DODGE CHARGER Complaints

MY VEHICLE HAS A RECALL (CAMPAIGN 17V-741) FOR THE ALTERNATOR. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER FOR REPAIRS AND WAS ADVISED THAT SINCE MY VIN IS NOT IN THE DODGE RECALL DATABASE, THE REPAIR CANNOT BE DONE UNDER RECALL AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF THE ALTERNATOR. MY "BATTERY SAVER MODE" LIGHT ILLUMINATES REGULARLY UNDER LOAD SUCH AS AIR CONDITIONER. TO DATE, DODGE REFUSES TO HONOR THE RECALL.

MY CAR OFTEN SOMETIMES THE ABS & TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT POP UP OUT OF THE BLUE AT THE SAME TIME THEN GOES OFF & ALSO IT SEEMS AT TIMES THE TRANSMISSION GETS STUCK WHEN REDUCING SPEED COMING TO S STOP ALSO THE VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN JUST TURN OFF ON ME WHEN I WAS RUN MY A.C IN A DRIVE THROUGH AS I PROCEEDED TO PULL OFF

TAKATA RECALL. I HAD TO WAIT OVER TWO MONTHS TO GET AN APPOINTMENT TO GET MY AIRBAG RECALL FIXED. UPON GETTING TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME THEY DIDNT HAVE THE PARTS. WHY DIDNT THEY CALL ME? THEY HAVE NOT TOLD ME WHEN THEY WILL FIX THIS. I HAVE INSTRUCTED FAMILY IF I GET IN AN ACCIDENT AND DIE OR GET SERIOUSLY INJURED TO SUE. THIS IS CRAZY I HAVE TRIED THREE TIMES TO HAVE THIS FIXED AND THEY NEVER HAVE PARTS OR CALL ME AND CANCEL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE CHARGER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE STEERING ABILITY BECAME DIFFICULT. THE CONTACT DROVE THE VEHICLE TO A PARTS DEALER AND WAS INFORMED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PARKWAY CHRYSLER DODGE (21560 HALL RD, CLINTON TOWNSHIP, MI 48038) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE STEERING RACK NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 61,000.

DEFECTIVE LEFT CYLINDER IN PENTASTAR 3.6VL ENGINE. MY CAR WAS BUILT IN SEPTEMBER 2013. IT HAS THE CONSTANT TICKING AND PUTTERING ASSOCIATED WITH THE DEFECT. DRIVES FINE, MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, BUT WHEN IDLE IT SHAKES/KNOCKS UNCONTROLLABLY. MY MECHANIC EDUCATED ME ON THE DEFECT AFTER MANY ATTEMPTS AT REPAIRING THE SEVERE MISFIRING. CONTACTED DODGE AND CHRYSLER AND WAS INFORMED THAT BECAUSE MY CAR IS A 2014 CHARGER IT DID NOT HAVE THE 150,000 EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR HIS KNOWN DEFECT IN CHARGERS FROM 2011-2103; NOTING MINE WAS BUILT IN 2013.

ALL DASH WARNING LIGHTS ARE ON. LOSS OF POWER STEERING TRANS SLIPPERY AND STICKING.

ALTERNATOR RECALL THAT MATCHES EXACT ISSUE, MAKE (DODGE), MODEL (CHARGER), YEAR (2014), AND ENGINE SIZE OF CAR (3.6L V6). ALTERNATOR MALFUNCTION CAUSED SHORT CIRCUIT OF HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER STEERING PUMP. INDICATOR LIGHTS BEGAN TO FLASH AND CAR WOULD BEGIN TO STALL WHILE IN OPERATION UNTIL EVENTUALLY DYING COMPLETELY. ALERTED THAT VIN NUMBER WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL AND HAD TO HAVE ALL WORK DONE AT LOCAL MECHANIC.

WHEN I START MY CAR I HEAR A TICKING SOUND COMING FROM MY ENGINE AS I ACCELERATE THE NOISE BECOME LOUDER AN FASTER. I WAS TOLD IT COULD POSSIBLY BE MY ROCKER ARMS OR LIFTERS. I'VE DONE OIL CHANGES, IGNITION COIL REPLACEMENTS AN SPARK PLUGS AN SOUND CONTINUES.

EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTY TURNING LEFT, ESPECIALLY QUICKLY. SEEMS TO LOSE POWER STEERING OR BEGINS TO LOCK UP AND NOT WANT TO TURN LEFT. OPERATES NORMALLY WHILE TURNING RIGHT. HAPPENS AT LOW SPEEDS, HAVE NOT TESTED AT HIGH SPEED DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS.

NOT TURNING OFF AND CAR UNLOCKS SELF WITHOUT THE KEY BEING THERE OR BEING PRESSED. ISSUES WITH UNLOCKING SELF.
