2007 DODGE CHARGER Engine Problems

shuts off while driving with no warning...Stalls at stop light/sign and when i try to accelerate it has barely goes.. sometimes it seems like it has no power at all and sometimes it seems like it has to much power without me accelerating. Its very dangerous this issue has almost made me get into several accidents

Filled fuel tank up until the pump shut off. As I drove onto the road, the engine suddenly died causing me to run off the shoulder as the power steering went out as well. I eventually got it re-started, but it ran rough and stalled out several more times on my way home. After some online research, I determined that it was probably raw gas getting pulled down the EVAP tube. I avoid the problem now by not filling the tank up all the way, but do it once in a while accidently and the problem returns. Highly dangerous situation.

SERVICE BULLETIN # 14-002-14: Fuel tank "roll over" valve failed immediately after fill-up saturating the purge solenoid and dryer canister for the fuel vapor vent reburning system. This service bulletin described failure caused liquid fuel rather than vapor to be dumped into the intake manifold stalling the vehicle in traffic in unsafe conditions. The car was towed to Beamon Dodge at 1705 S. Church St., 37130 awaiting repair. Dodge customer service was contacted at 1-800-423-6343 where they stated that this VIN was not covered by the service bulletin. Quoted repair for the manufacture defect is $4,680.48. Clearly the vehicles covered by this service bulletin are incomplete. Complaints of this failure can be found on the internet through 2014 when this service bulletin was issued on April 22, 2014. Clearly Dodge corrected nothing in their manufacturing and NHTSA is not protecting all consumers.

Every since had car ticks.Was driving after fill up and car just turned off having me almost hit 8 cars on the highway with my 5 year old son in car. Now will not start. Days later it starts and tick then turns off. Found out it’s common problem everybody has in these 5.7 hemi engines lifters/ cam.

MY VEHICLE BEGINS TO STALL OUT AT LOW SPEEDS OR WHILE IDLING. WHILE SLOWING DOWN FOR A LIGHT OR JUST WAITING FOR THE TRAFFIC LIGHT TO CHANGE. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AT GWINNETTE CHRYSLER STONE MOUNTAIN GEORGIA AND THE PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED TO BE THE FUEL TANK NEEDING REPLACEMENT AFTER PAYING 3000.00 DOLLARS FOR REPAIRS THAT DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I WAS THEN GIVEN A FINAL DIAGNOSIS THAT THE FUEL TANK WAS THE ISSUE AND IT WAS GOING TO COST 4500.00 TO REPLACE. TODAY IS APRIL 1 AND I JUST PICKED UP MY VEHICLE AFTER IT WAS SITTING IN THE DEALERSHIP FOR ALMOST 1 MONTH AND STILL THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. PLEASE HELP ME. MY VEHICLE IS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY WITH A CAR COVER BECAUSE I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT IN THIS CONDITION. [XXX].

I WAS IN A DRIVE THRU WAITING ON THE CASHIER, WHEN I HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION AND POP FROM UNDER MY ENGINE. I COULD ALSO FEEL IT THROUGH MY BRAKE PEDAL. SCARED AND WONDERING WHAT THE HECK JUST HAPPENED? I IMMEDIATELY PULLED FORWARD AND PARKED MY CAR AND TURNED THE ENGINE OFF. I GOT OUT OF MY VEHICLE AND NOTICED FLUID LEAKING. I POPPED THE HOOD AND FOUND SOME SHATTERED PLASTIC PIECES. UPON MY 1ST INSPECTIONS MY FAN WAS WHAT SHATTERED. I MADE A FEW CALLS AND WHEN A MECHANIC CAME TO INSPECT 20 MINUTES LATER, HE SAID THE FAN EXPLODED CAUSING PIECES TO THEN HIT THE RADIATOR. NOW BOTH PARTS NEED TO BE REPLACED. NOW INVESTIGATION, I SEE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR CHARGERS AND I'M WONDERING WHY THERE ISN'T A RECALL. I CANT EVEN IMAGINE WHAT COULD'VE HAPPENED IF I WAS DRIVING. I ALSO HAD MY CHILD IN THE CAR. SCARY ENOUGH WHILE THE CAR WASN'T MOVING. TIS HAPPENED OUT OF THE BLUE WITH NO PRIOR WARNINGS.

DRIVING ON CITY STREET SPEED LIMIT 40MPH CAR BEGAN OVERHEATING. IN ATTEMPT TO FIX THE OVERHEATING ISSUE A NEW WATER PUMP AND 2 NEW RADIATORS HAVE BEEN INSTALLED. THE INITIAL RADIATOR LITERALLY HAD THE ENTIRE BOTTOM FALL OUT. THE COOLING FANS WILL NOT COME ON AND ARE DAMAGED.

I WAS SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT AND HEARD A POP. THE COOLING FAN BLADE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR HAD BROKEN AND MADE A HOLE IN MY RADIATOR. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK THE CAR TO A MECHANIC AND THEY REPLACED THE FAN BLADE AND THE RADIATOR. THREE WEEKS LATER THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED TO THE FAN BLADE ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE CAR, ONCE AGAIN MAKING A HOLE IN MY NEW RADIATOR. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A HUGE DESIGN FLAW AND, APPARENTLY, A HUGE PROBLEM WITH 2006-2008 CHARGERS. I'M SO GLAD I WAS IN TOWN ON SMALL LOCAL STREETS BOTH TIMES WHEN THIS HAPPENED. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN TERRIBLE IF IT HAD HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY. I CHECKED WITH THE DEALER TO SEE IF THERE IS ANY KIND OF RECALL FOR THIS PART AND THERE ISN'T.

CODE P050 , P052.

PROBLEM #1: ONE OF THE COOLING FAN BLADES SHEERED OFF AND & FLEW INTO THE RADIATOR. I WAS AT A COMPLETE STOP AND BROKE OFF WHEN I STARTED TO ACCELERATE. I REPLACED THE BROKEN BLADE (DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO REPLACE BOTH) AND RADIATOR. ABOUT A YEAR OR LESS LATER THE OTHER FAN BLADE SHEERED OFF (THE ONE I DIDN'T REPLACE) AND WENT INTO THE RADIATOR. THIS TIME ALSO DURING ACCELERATING AFTER A COMPLETE STOP. DEJA VU. THIS TIME I HAD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE FAN ASSEMBLY (BECAUSE THE BLADES WERE ON BACKORDER) AND RADIATOR. WHEN I WENT TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SAME BLADES BUT ONLY THE 2006 MODEL. PROBLEM #2: IT IS NOW LOOSING PROPULSION. THE POWER STAYS ON IT JUST STOPS MOVING FORWARD. I CAN PUT IT IN PARK & THEN BACK IN GEAR AND IT MOVES, BUT BARELY. IT ISN'T CONSISTENT BUT IT IS TERRIFYING. I HAVE GOOGLED POSSIBLE ISSUES AND IT SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY HAVE LINKED IT TO A BAD PCM. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC BUT OF COURSE IT DIDN'T DO IT WHILE HE HAD IT. I HAVE BEEN TOLD, BY DODGE, THAT THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT CAN DO A FULL DIAGNOSTIC, THAT OTHER DEVICES ONLY COVER ABOUT 30% OF THE PROGRAM. THAT ALONE SEEMS UNFAIR IF NOT ILLEGAL. I CANNOT AFFORD $110 JUST TO FIND OUT WHAT'S WRONG. MY TRUNK LIGHT DOESN'T WORK EITHER & EVEN DODGE CAN'T FIND OUT WHY. IT'S NOT THE BULB, IT'S NOT THE FUSE, AND THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION IS GOOD. ACCORDING TO THEM. I HAVE MORE IMAGES AND RECEIPTS BUT CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO ATTACH THEM.

WAS GOING TO TOWN AND AS SOON AS I STOPPED AT THE STORE I SEEN STEAM COMING FROM UNDER MY HOOD AND POPPED THE HOOD AND HAD WATER SPRAYING OUT OF MY RADIATOR BY THE FAN GOT TO LOOKING AT IT GOOD AND ALL THE FAN BLADES WAS BROKE OFF AND ONE OF THEN WENT INTO THE RADIATOR. TOOK IT TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP IN TOWN AND THEY TOLD ME THE RECALL L08 WAS ONLY FOR THE V6 MOTORS AND I HAD TO FIX IT MYSELF.

I WAS DRIVING WHEN I HEARD A LOUD NOISE. I THEN WENT TO A REPAIR SHOP, I WAS TOLD THAT ONE OF THE BLADES ON THE FAN HAD BROKE AND PUT A HOLE IN MY RADIATOR. I CONTACTED DODGE AND THE LADY I SPOKE WITH DID KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT SHE STATED THAT MY CAR WAS MADE IN A DIFFERENT FACTORY SO I WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. WHICH I THINK IS UNFAIR SINCE I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM LIKE EVERYONE ELSE

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE RIDING IN OUR VEHICLE, ALL OF A SUDDEN WE HEARD A LOUD POP SOUND COME FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. MY HUSBAND THEN OBSERVED THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE ON THE VEHICLE RISING, AND THE RED LIGHT SUDDENLY APPEARED. WE WERE ONLY MINUTES AWAY FROM OUR HOME WHEN THIS OCCURRED, SO WE WERE ABLE TO IMMEDIATELY RETURNED HOME. ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY, THE HOOD WAS OPENED AND WE BOTH OBSERVED A PLASTIC FAN BLADE BROKEN AND HANGING OUT OF THE FAN'S CASING. WE ALSO OBSERVED FLUID INSIDE OF THE HOOD UNDERNEATH OF THW LINE DIRECTLY ACROSS FROM THE BROKEN HANGING FAN BLADE. WE ALSO OBSERVED FLUID ON THE GROUND DIRECTLY UNDERNEATH OF THIS LINE. VEHICLE HAS 137,000 MILES ON IT. VEHICLE IS SCHEDULED TO GO INTO SHOP MONDAY MORNING.

MY RADIATOR FAN MOTOR ASSEMBLY LOCKED UP AND A BLADE CAME OFF. THE BLADE WENT INTO THE RADIATOR. IT DAMANGED THE RADIATOR AND LEFT ME STRANDED. HAD NO PRIER NOISES OR PROLEMS. TOOK IT TO THE SHOP. COST ME $677.27 TO REPLACE THE RADIATOR, THE HOESE, ANTIFREEZE, HOSE CLAMPS AND RADIATOR FAN MOTOR ASSEMLY. THE GUY THAT FIXED MINE SAID HE SEE THIS EVERY WEEK IN CHARGERS. INFACT OUR WHOLE POLICE DEPARTMENT SWITCHED FROM CHARGES FOR THIS REASON. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THE DODGE # AND THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING TO DO TO HELP OUT BECAUSE OF AGE AND MILEAGE OF CARE. WASN'T HAPPY BECAUSE ONLINE THERE ARE PLENTY OF DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE.MY DEALERSHIP DOESN'T FIX THEM UNLESS THEY ARE UNDERWARRANTY. THEY SEND THEM OUT TO THE SAME GUY I WENT TO IF THEY ARE OUT OF WARRANTY. I GUESS NOT TO SHOW ON THEIR BOOKS THE PROBLEM.

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, MY CAR WOULD COMPLETELY TURN OFF WHEN TURNING RIGHT. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR. EACH TIME, I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAVE FOUND NOTHING. ON 10/3/2014 APPROXIMATELY 6:10 P.M., I TURNED RIGHT AND THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT THE DODGE DEALERSHIP IN FAYETTEVILLE, NC UNDERGOING SOME TESTS. I FEEL THE CAR IS UNSAFE AND AM ASKING THEM TO CHECK THE IGNITION FOR DEFECTS. I HAVE READ THAT THERE WERE OTHER DODGE VEHICLES THAT LOST POWER AND HAVE RESEARCHED THEM TO TAKE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO INSPECT. IF I WERE TO TRADE THIS VEHICLE IN FOR ANOTHER CAR, I AM AFRAID THE NEXT PURCHASER'S LIFE COULD BE IN DANGER. ONCE IT STOPS, IT TAKES STRONG ARMS TO CONTROL IT WHILE PULLING OVER.

ON JUNE 2, 2014 I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT WAITING TO TURN WHEN I HEARD A LOUD BANG FOLLOWED BY WHAT FELT LIKE SOMETHING FALLING OUT OF MY MOTOR. ONCE I TURNED I TURNED OFF ONTO THE SERVICE ROAD TO CHECK WHAT HAPPENED. MY CAR IMMEDIATELY BEGAN TO OVER HEAT AND MY GAGE WENT FROM IN BETWEEN THE COOL RANGE TO HOT RANGE. I DID NOT WANT TO DRIVE MY CAR ANY FURTHER IN ORDER TO PREVENT ANY UNNECESSARY DAMAGES. I CALLED MY HUSBAND WHO THEN CAME TO GET ME AND CHECK THE PROBLEM. HE NOTICED THAT THE FANS ON THE COOLING SYSTEM WERE NOT WORKING. ONE COMPLETELY LOCKED WHICH CAUSED SOME OF THE FANS TO BREAK AND THE OTHER JUST STOPPED WORKING. I LOOKED ON LINE TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY SIMILAR OCCURRENCES OF THIS HAPPENING. I CAME UPON CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE NOTIFICATION L08, WHICH IMPLIES THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED ON OVER 55,000 VEHICLES. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND WAS HAD THEM LOOK INTO IT. ACCORDING TO THE NOTIFICATION IT STATES THAT ONLY THE SEVERE COOLING SYSTEMS ON 2006-2008 DODGE CHARGERS ARE HAVING THIS OCCUR. MY VEHICLE IS A 2007 DODGE CHARGER 3.5 L V6 WHICH IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE CUSTOMER SERVICE NOTIFICATION SINCE IT ONLY CARRIES THE HEAVY DUTY COOLING SYSTEM. SO MY DEALERSHIP WILL NOT COVER THE COST TO FIX THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRING ON LIKE MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLES. HOWEVER, DURING OPERATION MY COOLING LOCKED AND STOPPED WORKING. I AM UNSURE HOW MANY MORE VEHICLES HAVE HAD THIS OCCUR TO THEM BUT UPON RESEARCHING IT HAS AND CONTINUES TO OCCUR. *TR

WITHIN A YEAR OR SO OF FIRST PURCHASING THE CAR (2007) I NOTICED IT WOULD FEEL LIKE SOMEONE HIT ME FROM BEHIND AS I GOT OFF THE INTERSTATE AND WAS WAITING FOR A LIGHT. I HAVE SINCE LEARNED THIS WAS THE ENGINE "BUMPING" TO KEEP IT FROM STALLING. I WOULD EITHER GIVE IT GAS OR PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND IT WOULD BE OK. WITHIN THE LAST YEAR THE CAR HAS ACTUALLY STALLED ON ME AT THE LIGHTS. I NOTICED THIS MOSTLY AFTER DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70-75 MPH FOR MY 20 MIN DRIVE TO WORK AND AS I SLOWING DOWN TO GET OFF THE EXIT IT SEEMS TO "BUMP" AND NOW "STALL". I HAVE HAD THE CAR STALL THREE TIMES IN A ROW ON A SINGLE INSTANCE RECENTLY WITH THE THIRD TIME IT FINALLY CAUGHT AND DID NOT STALL, BUT I FEARED IT WOULD NOT START AT ALL. I HAVE HAD AN INSTANCE RECENTLY OF THE CAR STALLING WHILE AT LOW SPEEDS (10-20 MPH) AS I'M SLOWING DOWN. ALL OTHER TIMES WERE AT AN ACTUAL STOP. RECENTLY THE CAR STALLED AND IT TOOK 2 TIMES TO GET IT TO RESTART AND WHEN IT RESTARTED IT WOULD NOT IMMEDIATELY GO INTO GEAR, EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS IN "DRIVE". MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING FOR THIS TIME AND ALTHOUGH I AM PRIMARY DRIVER, HE HAS EXPERIENCED THE "BUMPS" OVER THE YEARS. IN THIS LAST INSTANCE THE CAR HAD BEEN ON A BACK ROAD AND WHILE STILL ONLY DRIVING ABOUT 20-30 MINS THE SPEED WAS NEVER HIGHER THAN 45-50 MPH. *TR

WHILE TRAVELING AT 40+ MPH I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE BY PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ALL THE WAY, THE DODGE CHARGER RT(5.7L V8) DID NOT REACT AND KEPT ACCELERATING AT THE NORMAL RATE BEFORE I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR. SINCE IT WAS NOT REACTING TO MY INPUT, I TOOK MY FOOT COMPLETELY OFF THE ACCELERATOR BUT THE VEHICLE KEPT ACCELERATING AT A CONSTANT RATE. THEN AFTER TWO SECONDS, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED AT FULL THROTTLE, IN AUTOMATIC, DOWNSHIFTED, AND CONTINUED TO SPEED UP AT FULL THROTTLE. BRAKES WERE PRESSED BUT SEEMED TO HAVE ZERO EFFECT ON THE VEHICLE'S UNCONTROLLED ACCELERATION. FINALLY I DECIDED TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL AND THE ENGINE RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. I THEN SHIFTED INTO DRIVE AGAIN FROM NEUTRAL, AND OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE RESUMED TO NORMAL. FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED AND IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE, LUCKILY, NO CAR WAS IN FRONT OF ME AND I HAD TIME TO CONTROL THE CAR BEFORE I CAME TO THE UPCOMING RED LIGHT/INTERSECTION. *TR

I WAS ON I-495 LEAVING LONG ISLAND NY , DRIVING AROUND 50-55 MPH WHEN MY 07 DODGE CHARGER 2.7 LITER TURNED OFF ON THE EXTREMELY BUSY FREEWAY. IM USUALLY IN THE FASTLANE , BUT THIS PARTICULAR DAY I WAS TRAVELING IN THE FAR RIGHT LANE. SO NO DAMAGE WAS DONE. THERE ARE NO WARNING INDICATORS OR WARNINGS OF THIS PROBLEM THAT OCCURS , BEFORE OR AFTER. THERE HAS ALSO BEEN NUMEROUS TIMES THAT THE VEHICLE HAS TURNED OFF WHILE ATTEMPTING TO LEAVE ON A GREEN LIGHT. THAT HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME MANY REAR END ACCIDENTS. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO MANY MECHANICS INCLUDING THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AND NO ONE COULD SEEM TO FIND THE PROBLEM. THERE ARE MANY OTHERS ON THE DODGE CHARGER FORUM WITH THE SAME PROBLEM , AND FEEL THE SAME DANGERS THAT COULD BE CAUSED IF THIS PROBLEM IS NOT FIXED OR AT LEAST IDENTIFIED. IF ALL DODGE CHARGERS HAVE THIS PROBLEM , IT COULD CAUSE MANY DEFECT RELATED ACCIDENTS. THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE WARNING AND THE CAR RUNS FINE UNTIL IT UNEXPECTEDLY SHUTS OFF. I HAVE SPENT OVER $800 FOR TEST AND OTHER WISHFUL REPAIRS WITH STILL NO ANSWER TO FIX THE PROBLEM. CHECK THE DODGE CHARGER FORUM. I DIDN'T BOTHER TO SIGN UP BECAUSE THERE WAS NO SOLUTION. *TR

THIS IS REGARDING A 2007 DODGE CHARGER SRT-8. THE VEHICLE WAS FUNCTIONING NORMALLY WHEN I WAS SUDDENLY UNABLE TO ACCELERATE IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. THE TRACTION CONTROL AND ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL (ETC) WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN "SPUTTERING" AS I TRIED TO ACCELERATE. I EXITED AT THE NEXT AVAILABLE OFF-RAMP AND CAME TO A STOP AT WHICH POINT THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND I WAS UNABLE TO START IT AGAIN. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE NEAREST CHRYSLER/DODGE DEALERSHIP/SERVICE CENTER AND AFTER ABOUT A WEEK I WAS INFORMED THAT THE #2 CYLINDER HAD 0 PSI COMPRESSION. THEY SAID THEY HAD TO OPEN THE ENGINE TO GET FURTHER INFORMATION AS TO WHY IT HAD NO COMPRESSION. AFTER OPENING THE ENGINE, THEY FOUND THAT THE VALVE SEAT FOR THE #2 CYLINDER WAS WARN AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. GIVEN THAT THIS VEHICLE ONLY HAS 70K MILES ON IT, I BELIEVE THIS FAILURE IS PREMATURE. THERE WERE ABSOLUTELY NO SIGNS OF DEGRADATION IN VEHICLE PERFORMANCE LEADING UP TO THIS INCIDENT. I USE THIS VEHICLE TO COMMUTE TO WORK ABOUT 35 MILES EACH WAY, EVERYDAY. I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF THE VEHICLE AND SERVICE IT REGULARLY IF NOT EARLIER THAN THE RECOMMENDED MILEAGE/TIME. *TR

ABOUT 40K MILES INTO OWNING THE CAR I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND MY CAR STALLED OUT. ONCE I PULLED OVER I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR BUT WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NOW APPEARING. THE CAR MADE IT THE REST OF MY DESTINATION BUT HAS NOT BEEN THE SAME SINCE. THAT WAS 5 YEARS AGO. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF RANDOMLY. THERE APPEARS TO BE LITTLE POWER LEFT WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. WHEN STEPPING ON THE GAS THE CAR RESPONDS BUT WILL IDLE DOWN AND FEEL CLOSE TO STALLING OUT EVEN WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. I TOOK TO DODGE AND THEY REPLACED A PART THAT COST ME $800 TO FIX (INTAKE MANIFOLD TUNING VALVE). OF COURSE THIS DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS OF FOR ABOUT A MONTH BEFORE IT CAME ON AGAIN. THEY DID NOT WANT TO HELP ME OUT. I WAS TOLD IT COULD BE ANOTHER $1200 IN REPAIRS. I DID NOT WANT TO SPEND THIS MUCH MONEY AS I DO NOT HAVE CONFIDENCE THAT THEY HAVE A RESOLUTION. THE CAR HAS NEVER PERFORMED ANY BETTER. I HAVE PUT LESS THAN 3K MILES/YEAR ON THE CAR FOR THE PREVIOUS TWO YEARS. I HAVE NO CONFIDENCE THAT MY CAR WOULD HAVE LASTED THIS LONG IF MY COMMUTE WAS LONGER OR STOP AND GO TRAFFIC WAS INVOLVED. I HAVE TO TAKE MY WIFE'S MUCH OLDER CAR WHEN I NEED TO MAKE LONGER COMMUTES. I AM VERY UNSATISFIED. *TR

MY 2007 DODGE CHARGER WAS RENDERED INOPERABLE WHEN THE ENGINE COOLING FAN BLADES SEPARATED UNEXPECTEDLY, CAUSING SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE RADIATOR. THIS INCIDENT ULTIMATELY RESULTED IN ENGINE FAILURE. WHEN THIS INCIDENT WAS REPORTED TO THE CHRYSLER GROUP, THE CASE MANAGER WAS INFORMED OF A RECALL THAT ADDRESSED THIS SAME ISSUE. PLEASE REFER TO CUSTOMER SATISFACTION NOTIFICATION L08 ENGINE COOLING FANS. THIS NOTIFICATION CAUTIONS OWNERS THAT THE ELECTRICALLY POWERED RADIATOR COOLING FANS ON ABOUT 52,000 OF THE REFERENCED VEHICLES (INCLUDE 2007 DODGE CHARGER) MAY SEPARATE DURING FAN OPERATION AND CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE RADIATOR. THIS EXACT FAILURE OCCURRED TO MY VEHICLE COSTING ME IN EXCESS OF $2000 BUT THE CHRYSLER GROUP REFUSED TO OFFER ASSISTANCE DUE TO THE FACT THAT MY VIN FELL OUTSIDE OF THE RANGE TO THE VINS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND THAT MY VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY.

I WAS DRIVING HOME ALONG WITH MY WIFE FROM RUNNING ERRANDS WHEN MY VEHICLE SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING AT 45MPHS PER HOUR. I CALLED AAA TO COME AND TOW MY VEHICLE. THEY DID JUST THAT AND THE SERVICE-CONTRACTED TOWING COMPANY FOR AAA DROPPED MY DODGE CHARGER RT OFF TO THE AUTO REPAIR SHOP THAT I'M ACCUSTOMED TO GOING. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THE BATTERY WAS DRAINED HEAVILY FROM THE ENGINE PROBLEM. SO HE TOOK OUT THE OLD BATTERY I HAD AND PUT IN A NEW BATTERY. ONCE HE DID THAT HE TRIED TO GET THE DODGE CHARGER RT TO START BUT THERE WAS NO LUCK. BUT EVENTUALLY SOME ELECTRICAL POWER WAS RESTORED TO A LEVEL IN ORDER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST TO BE PERFORMED. ONCE THIS MECHANIC COMPLETED THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST HE TOLD ME THAT THE CODES HE RECEIVED ARE IDENTICAL TO THE RECALL PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE 2007 MODEL OF THE DODGE CHARGER RT. HE TOLD ME THAT THE 2007 MODEL FOR THIS VEHICLE HAD THE MOST RECALL PROBLEMS FOR THE ISSUE THAT I EXPERIENCED WHICH WERE ENGINE PROBLEMS. HE SAID THAT THE ENGINE PROBLEMS WERE THE SECOND MOST RECALLED ISSUE AFTER THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS FOR THIS VEHICLE. HE TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED TO INVESTIGATE ABOUT GETTING A RECALL COMPLAINT MADE FOR THIS VEHICLE WITH THE MANUFACTURER (DODGE), BECAUSE THE ENGINE PROBLEM JUSTIFIED THE SAME RECALL ISSUES THAT PREVIOUS OWNERS HAD WITH THE MODEL AND YEAR OF THIS VEHICLE.
