TAKATA RECALL WHILE DRIVING IN THE CITY STREETS THE OIL COOLER ASSEMBLY STARTED LEAKING OIL ALL THE WAY FROM THE TOP WHERE ITS LOCATED TO THE TRANSMISSION AND EXHAUST PIPES CAUSING A LOT OF SMOKE COME OUT BECAUSE THE OIL BURNIG HAD TO STOP VERY QUICKLY THINKING THE CAR WAS GETTING ON FIRE. AT FIRST DID NOT KNOW WHERE THE LEAK WAS COMING FROM AFTER INSPECTING I NOTICED IT WAS COMING OUT WHERE THE OIL COOLER ASSAMBLY IS.

I HAD A SMALL AIR LEAK IN THE REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRE. I TOOK IT TO GET THE TIRE REPAIRED, AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE WHEEL WAS ACTUALLY CRACKED. I TOOK THE CAR TO GET THE RIM REPAIRED, AND IT WAS MAINTAINING PRESSURE. I DID NOT CHECK THE OTHER WHEELS, AS THEY WERE MAINTAINING PRESSURE. APPROXIMATELY 2 WEEKS LATER, I WAS INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING DOWN A LOCAL HIGHWAY (APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH), WHERE THE CAR STARTED SHAKING, AND I LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER RIM WAS CRACKED AS WELL, WHICH LED TO WHEEL FAILURE AND A BLOWOUT. ULTIMATELY, I ENDED UP IN A CONCRETE WALL AND THE CAR WAS TOTALED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE ALTERNATOR MAY EXPERIENCE DIODE THERMAL FATIGUE FAILURE DUE TO CYCLICAL LOADS INDUCED BY ELECTRO-HYDRAULIC POWER STEERING.

CAR EXPERIENCED RAPID ALTERNATOR FAILURE. REQUESTED DODGE REPAIR AS PART OF RECALL, HOWEVER THEY REFUSED STATING RECALL WAS LIMITED TO 160AMP ALTERNATOR AND MY CHARGER HAD 180AMP. AFTER SOME RESEARCH IN CHRYSLER FORUMS, BOTH THE 160AMP AND 180 AMP ALTERNATORS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME TYPE OF FAILURE. BOTH SHOULD BE ON THE RECALL LIST!

IT HAS ELECTRICA PROBLEMS, SPECIALLY ON LIGHTS. THE REVERSE LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN THE CAR IS ON PARK OR TURNED OFF. THE NOTIFICATION LIGHT KEEPS STAYING ON EVERYTIME EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM IS ALREADY FIX. THE TIRE PRESSURES KEEPS ON GOING DOWN EVERYDAY.

I'M STILL HAVING, (BATTERY SAVER MODE LIGHT COMING ON). AND NOW I'M WORRIED ABOUT THE ("TAKATA RECALL"). I'VE TAKEN MY DODGE CHARGER BACK TO DODGE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE TODAY, 11/16/17, AS THE (ABS) & (TRACTION CONTROL) LIGHTS BOTH WERE ON. AND AS I WAS DRIVING MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP I TRIED TO SET MY CRUISE CONTROL AT 75 MPH AS I WAS ON I-77 SOUTH, BUT I COULDN'T GET IT TO SET AT ANY SPEED. TODAY 11/17/2017 MY REPAIR BILL IS $350.00 DOLLARS + A CAR PAYMENT AND HOPEFULLY I CAN GET HOME WITH THE ALTERNATOR ISSUES. I'M TIRED OF PAYING FOR SOMETHING THAT I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE ANYWHERE I NEED TO GO. THIS DODGE BELONGS TO A FAMILY OF 4 INCLUDING MYSELF, CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME GET SOMETHING DONE ASAP I THINK I HAVE A BEAUTIFUL VEHICLE AND I DON'T REALLY WANT TO TRADE IT JUST BECAUSE OF THE NO PARTS AVAILABLE, AS MY LUCK WOULD BE, THE PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE THE SAME MONTH AS I TRADED CARS.
