3 Steering problem

Failure Date: 08/02/2020

Issue started with power steering going out for a few seconds in 2014 Dodge Challenger only 38,000 miles (happened twice) then before it could get serviced power steering went out with service light on (power steering resumed in about 5 minutes while I was trying to get to a safe place, service light went out also). I was in a drive thru lane, as I left it and approached road to turn right on a 45 mph rd is when the steering went out for the 5 minutes. Really dangerous, should be recalled for free repair.

Driving my 2014 Dodge charger car and the electric power steering cause my steering hard to turn. With no warrant. Good thing I was not on I-10 hwy. I was on the street. I could have been kill. I almost hit a car. Thinking it was going to go away because it was working fine. Then the dealer said the power steering need changing. Thousand of people is having that same problem.

5 Steering problem

Failure Date: 02/04/2020

My 2014 Dodge Challenger dies when I'm driving it. The most recent was when I was driving downhill on a winding mountain road. It died, and there was no place to get off the road. When it dies, the lights, power steering and power brakes all quit. Very dangerous!!! the dealer could find nothing wrong. There are many complaints about this on the internet, and Dodge is doing nothing to fix this. Like me, others have taken their cars to dealers, and they find nothing wrong. Something is very wrong! Dodge needs to get busy and fix this most dangerous defect before someone gets seriously injured or killed.

6 Steering problem

Failure Date: 11/21/2019

The power steering fluid evaporates in the reservoir (the Dodge dealer told me this after I had the fluid checked and filled in 2018 because of steering problem) and causes the steering to become very rigid with quick turning. I had to make a sudden quick right turn to avoid a car in front of me (local street) and the car would not turn as I needed. The steering groaned. The steering felt very dangerous and this was totally unexpected. I am having it serviced this week again to check the steering fluid.
