general problems of the 2013 Dodge Challenger

Last week I face a serious issue with my Dodge Challenger v6 2013 steering, while im taking a u turn (20klm /25klm) without any warning lamp or message the steering becomes hard that I couldn’t turn it and I used both hands to turn and caused my car to go on the side walk with the front right wheel. Starting from that time every time I take u turn its hard and I need two hands to turn but right turn so smooth, I went to dealership they said probably you need to change steering rack and pinion. I refused as it’s expensive and it happen by it self.

Steering locks up making left turn intermittently in motion.

The steering is real stiff when the car is first started. It gets exceptionally stiff when turning left.

Tl the contact owns a 2013 Dodge Challenger. While driving and turning the vehicle, the contact heard an intermittent clicking noise. There was no warning indicator illuminated. Also, the steering did not operate well. The vehicle was taken to addy's harbor Dodge ram fiat (843-945-3100, located at 4849 u s 501, myrtle beach, SC 29579) to be diagnosed, but the cause of the failure was not determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to NHTSA. The failure mileage was approximately 59,000. The VIN was not provided.

Our car has 82,000 miles on it and the steering rack goes. We dont drive this car all year round. Nothing but problems with this car.

Air bag indicator light intermittently lights and renders the airbag system useless due to the malfunctioning switch in the airbag system. This could cause injury or death to the occupants of the vehicle.

Challengers steering always goes out. Their are forums all over the internet about the horrible steering issues of Dodge vehicle ranging from brand new models to older models. This issues makes it difficult to turn which is a safety hazard. Also the book inside the Challengers show that there is a power steering reservoir but it does not have one so even if low fluid was an issue we could not fix that.

On this date 7/3/17 my husband and daughter were visiting the library when our vehicle stalled. Thankfully they were in a safe location and had just parked. Prior to leaving the house my husband noticed a whistling sound coming from the hood of the vehicle. After the car stalles the vehicle was towed to our home. It was later identified that the alteenator has gone out. It was replaced. Now mpving forward to 9/6/2017 my husband and I recieve a recall notice in the mail from NHTSA stating in bold print and great detail that prompt action to repair this vehicle is needed. The recall notice also gave direction on how the dealer and NHTSA must rectify the situation in a timely manner. Action on our end was taken and my husband took the risk of driving the vehicle to a dealer sure that the issue would ve rectified. Now the part to remedy this recall is currently unavailable and no accomadation on either NHTSA or any Dodge dealerahip has been given to my family. This is risking a vehicle being driven on a road that was stated in bold print detailing the severity of the issue and the risk of injury and crash. Yet noone is concerned about the saftey of its customers. All that is veing asked is that a rental vehicle be accomatated until the recall is fixed. The recall states the vehicle must be repaired yet how am I suppose to continue on with getting my children to and from school and my husband and self to work. I am extremely concerned and upset that nothing is veing dobe to ensure the saftey and lives of your customers. Your taking the risk of injury with a unsafe vehicle on the road. And would greatly appreciate promt attention on this matter.

Power steering started leaking at roughly 60k miles causing steering issues.

Driving on the highway at about 70 mile the car power went out on abs and then all gages showed zero, steering went out and car shut of completely going at 60 then. No brakes no steering engine shuts off was so scared . . . . Car had to come to a stop on it own had stopped on the highway.
