The contact owns a 2007 Dodge Charger. The contact stated while traveling various speeds, the check engine light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who stated that the intake manifold needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired by a private mechanic. The manufacturer was contacted about the failure. The failure mileage was 120,000.
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.
