“The contact owns a 2013 Dodge Charger. The contact stated that after stopping at a stop light, the brake pedal was released and the accelerator pedal was depressed to make a left turn however, the vehicle failed to respond. The vehicle was towed to the residence and then towed to the dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the output shaft had failed, and the transmission and transfer case needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 13V610000 (Power Train). The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the VIN was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was approximately 124,000.”

“The shifter module that was replaced under recall S27/NHTSA 16V-240 in August of 2016 started shifting itself into sport mode automatically and without warning in November of 2022. I took my car to James River Chrysler Dodge in Ozark, Mo in November to have the shifter module replaced. The dealership could not find a new Mopar shifter module because Chrysler stopped making them. There is no after market shifter modules available for this specific shifter module so James River Chrysler placed a used shifter module in my car. The used shifter module is automatically shifting the car into a lower sports mode gear without warning also which is a safety hazard for me, my family, and other individuals who are traveling in a proximity around me. I cannot purchase a new Mopar or after market shifter module for my car because no one is manufacturing this part. I want to report this safety hazard because there are numerous Dodge Chargers on the road that will potentially have the same situation as me in the very near future. Can Chrysler be held accountable to manufacture the shifter module to keep everyone safe on the roads? Thank you, [XXX]”

“When the car is parked and I engage the shifter from Park to drive the car is making a clicking and thumping sound and it’s the same when I shifted from drive to reverse”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE CHARGER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. DUE TO THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT WAS FORCED TO COAST THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY HOWEVER, AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO START THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO STALL. DUE TO THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A FAMILY MEMBER'S RESIDENCE WHERE IT REMAINED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 124,563. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.”

“BRAKES- TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE OF MY CAR ISN'T HEATED UP TO THE THIRD LINE. ENGINE- LOUD TICKING. MECHANIC SAID 1 OUT OF 12 LIFTERS IN DRIVER'S SIDE CYLINDER HAS COLLAPSED. POWER TRAIN- WHEN I ACCELERATE IN OVER DRIVE MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON FOR A COUPLE DAYS. WHEN I DIAGNOSE IT, IT SAYS TORQUE CONVERTER FAILURE. (OVERDRIVE FAILURE) SO I'M GUESSING I HAVE NO OVERDRIVE UNTIL THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT SHUTS BACK OFF. (WHO KNOWS) DODGE/CHRYSTLER NEEDS TO CHECK INTO THE QUALITY OF THE CARS THEY'RE PRODUCING. I WILL NEBER BUY ANOTHER DODGE/CHRYSTLER/JEEP”
