I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. PULLED OFF HIGHWAY INTO GAS STATION AND GASSED UP. WHEN TRYING TO START ENGINE IT MADE A HEAVY, THUNKING SOUND WHILE TRYING TO TURN OVER. GOT IT TOWED TO A GARAGE WHERE THEY SAID THE ENGINE DROPPED A VALVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THEN HAD IT TOWED TO ANOTHER GARAGE AND GOT THE SAME EXACT DIAGNOSIS - DROPPED A VALVE, CYLINDER DESTROYED, ENGINE A TOTAL LOSS AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE OWNER OF THE SECOND GARAGE SAID DROPPING A VALVE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE V8 2006 CHARGER.

AFTER FILLING MY CHARGER UP WITH PREMIUM FUEL, IT IMMEDIATELY STALLS WITHOUT WARNING WHILE I AM DRIVING, I LOSE THE POWER STEERING AND I AM UNABLE RESTART IT RIGHT AWAY. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL UP, AND I HAVE PAID OVER $500 DOLLARS TO THE DEALERSHIP TO TROUBLE SHOOT IT, AND THEY DO NOT HAVE A CLUE. VERY DANGEROUS FEELING. SOMEONE WILL BE KILLED FROM THIS ISSUE, IT COMES AT VARYING TIMES.
