ON MY WAY TO WORK, MY ABS AND ESC LIGHT LIGHTS FLASHED ON THE DASH. ESC WAS IN RED AND ABS WAS IN YELLOW. I PULLED THE CAR OVER, CUT IT OFF, AND GOOGLED WHAT IT MAY BE AND ALL KINDS OF STUFF CAME UP IN REFERENCE TO WHAT IT COULD BE. ONCE I STARTED THE ENGINE AGAIN, IT WAS GONE. LET IT BE KNOWN, I TRAVEL ON THE INTERSTATE TO GO TO WORK, SO THIS WAS A VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE FOR ME. I PUT MY CAR IN DRIVE TOOK OFF ONCE I GOT UP TO 78, I PUT MY CRUISE ON AND THEN ABOUT 10 MINS LATER THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON AGAIN. THIS TIME, IT SHUT MY CRUISE OFF AND IT'S LIKE SOMEONE PULLED MY STEERING WHEEL FROM ME. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AGAIN AND CUT THE CAR OFF. I WOULD REALLY HATE TO BE DRIVING 75-79 MPH AND MY STEERING GOES OUT. PHONED DODGE AND WAS TOLD TO BRING IT FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND THEY COULD TELL ME WHAT IT WAS. I WENT AHEAD ON AND CONTINUED TO WORK AND IT DID NOT DO IT AGAIN, EVEN COMING HOME. I JUST DID NOT USE THE CRUISE. TIME HAS PASSED AND IT DID NOT COME BACK ON BUT NOW (TWICE) WHEN I USE MY BRAKES, IT FEELS LIKE THEY ARE SLIPPING. NOT TO MENTION AS OF 30 MINS AGO MY LIGHTS HAVE COME BACK ON. I WAS TOLD IT MAY BE A SENSOR BUT IT'S HARD TO TELL WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE NOT ON. THIS CAR IS MY LIFE.. MY MEANS TO TAKE CARE OF MYSELF AND MY FAMILY. I CANNOT FINANCIALLY GIVE HUNDREDS EVERY TIME A LIGHT COME ON AND THEN IT GOES OFF AND NOTHING CAN BE DONE. I WAS TOLD MY BREAKS AND ROTORS WERE FINE, YET I AM STILL GOING TO REPLACE THEM. I JUST NEED THIS TO BE INVESTIGATED FURTHER.. I AM A TRUE MOPAR FAN AND I LOVE MY DODGE, BUT IF I OR MY FAMILY IS IN DANGER DRIVING/RIDING IN THIS CAR, MYSELF AND SOMEONE ELSE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IT AND SEE IF SOMETHING CAN BE DONE. PLEASE ADVISE..THANK YOU! *TR

THE VEHICLE HAS STARTED DISPLAYING MESSAGES TO HAVE THE POWER STEERING, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL AND THE ABS BRAKE SYSTEM SERVICED. IT HAS BEGAN TO NOT START AS WELL. IT WILL RANDOMLY FLASH THESE MESSAGES ON THE DASH IN MOTION AND STATIONARY POSITIONS. WHEN IT DOES, THE POWER STEERING ACTUALLY GOES OUT OF THE VEHICLE SWERVES. THE CAR WAS JUST AT A DEALERSHIP TO GET THE OIL DONE A WEEK AGO AND THEY DID AN ENTIRE INSPECTION ON IT AND SAID IT WAS FINE....IT HAS DONE THIS BEFORE 2 YEARS AGO AND THEN STOPPED ON IT'S OWN. SO THE OIL CHANGE WAS BEFORE THE ISSUES STARTED AGAIN. HAD IT CHECKED OUT AGAIN AND STILL NOTHING THROWING ANY CODES OUT. THIS IS A VERY BIG SAFETY ISSUE AND WE WOULD LOVE SOME ANSWERS AS TO WHY THIS IS HAPPENING!

I BOUGHT MY 2015 DODGE CHARGER AS A CERTIFIED USED CAR. I DID NOT HAVE MUCH NEED FOR HILL DRIVING UNTIL MOVING TO NORTHERN CALIFORNIA. WHILE DRIVING DOWN A GRADE AND BRAKING, I NOTICED A VIBRATION IN THE BRAKE AND SHIMMY IN THE STEERING. THE ISSUE HAS CONTINUED, WHEN DRIVING DOWNHILL AND BRAKING. UNFORTUNATELY, I WAITED UNTIL AN UNRELATED RECALL TO HAVE THE DEALER CHECK THE BRAKES. AT 31,098 MILES, THE FRONT ROTORS ARE WARPED AND SHOULD BE REPLACED. DODGE IS INDICATING THIS IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. I REVIEWED ON LINE FORUMS AND FOUND SEVERAL OTHERS WITH SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ABOUT NOT ONLY THIS MODEL YEAR, BUT ALSO DATING BACK TO THE 2006 MODEL YEAR. ALL DESCRIBED SIMILAR ISSUES WITH VERY LOW MILEAGE.

I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE AROUND 65-70 MPH ON THE FREEWAY WHEN I WENT TO STEP ON MY BREAK PEDAL THE VEHICLE DID NOT SLOW DOWN WHEN I WENT TO CHANGE LANES DUE TO THIS MY GS PEDAL WOULD NOT GO FASTER AFTER EITHER. A INDICATOR LIGHT APPEARED IN MY CLUSTER BUT I WAS UNABLE TO READ IT DUE TO MY PANIC OF LOOSING MY BREAKS AND GAS PEDAL. LATE THAT NIGHT I TOOK IT TO HUNTINGTON BEACH DODGE AND JEEP SERVICE AND SERVICE ADVISOR BOB SAID THAT THERE WAS A SYSTEM CODE THAT INDICATED LOSS SIGNAL TO BREAKS AND GAS PEDALS. THE REPAIR ORDER INDICATED THAT THE BREAK AND GAS PEDAL WAS NOT CALIBRATED PROPERLY CAUSING THE ISSUE. THIS IS GREAT CONCERN TO BEING THAT IT IS A SAFETY MATTER THAT CAN CAUSE A ACCIDENT OR THAT CAN RESULT IN GREAT BODILY INJURY OR DEATH. I HAD TOW FRIENDS IN THE CAR WITH ME AT THE TIME TOO. *TR

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
