Drove on hwy no problem made it into town smelled gas & seen smoke coming from hood briefly(tank was half full )turned car off got out seen smoke from under the hood, opened the hood as best as I could and seen flames coming from under the hood.

Got rear ended day later hears a winding noise and engine light came on then battery light came on. When driving next day all lights on dash board came on and car died. Thought was battery changed it then restarted car. Next day bring to get diagnosed and said altnator was testing bad so had that replaced but battery light stayed on. Took to collision center Dodge and they said pcm was bad so had that replaced. The mechanic stated common problem when altnator dies it burns up the pm module.

There's a open recall for my 2010 Dodge Charger r/t & I took it to cueter Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram. They had it for 8 days & had not touched the car since I dropped it off. They said they were waiting on parts now it's been 16 days & have not gotten any word back. What am I supposed to do. The recalls are for the passenger airbag & the engine timing chain which is very serious in my opinion but must not be to them.

What is he noticed that the car is a 2010 Charger and I regularly get my oil changed by the dealership and I start hearing some tapping up under the hood I didn't know what it was so I thought that the car was about to throw a rod and that my engine was going to lock up on me did I heard that this team called the hemi tick you can check it out online on youtube.

Engine cut off while driving and would not start again. Carried to certified dealership, engine locked up and there was found metal shavings in oil. Had to replace engine.

Towed my car to dealership on 1/24/2019 due to lifesaving recalls and was refused the lifesaving repairs based off my vehicle allegedly not being able to start which is a lie because the towing service jump started the battery at my place of residence and drove the car onto the towing bed. Hence my vehicle still posing a threat on life and client safety as a whole. Which will not be eradicated until I fix the car which in that time the airbags could explode and kill myself and other innocent people.

I smelled something burning, but not like plastic or the smell when it's overheating. I looked at my dash and the thermostat needle was straight up then I saw a little puff of smoke out of the corner of my eye. I popped the hood and flames shot across the windshield. I opened the door and rolled out because my seat was reclined. I could see fire under the hood, I reached back in and turned the engine off thinking maybe it would help. I grabbed my phone which was stuck to the dash with a magnet and I ran like hell!.

Bought my 2010 Charger in 2012. Slight engine ticking when cold from day one. Worse in winter, barely noticeable in summer. As time goes by, ticking is getting worse. Checked for engine codes and nothing. Checked for oil issue and nothing. Ticking is getting more obnoxious, especially when cold. When the car warms up it fades out somewhat. Took it to the dealership after doing some research and there's a known issue with 3. 5ho engines. Rocker arm issue, pins shear off, etc. Dealer confirmed this is my issue. Bad rocker arm assembly, lash adjusters. Factory part numbers end with "aa" and the new replacement parts with "ac. " this is also an indication of a known issue. Ticking is on startup, louder when engine is cool. It gets better when it is warm but as of recently, it's more constant. Rocker arm assemblies need replaced on both heads, and the estimated cost is $1100. With so many people having this issue, you would think there would be a recall. Mileage is 55,446 currently. Car had 20,000 when purchased.

This car has been a nightmare. The automatic transmission went out at 85,000 miles and had to be completely replaced, thank fully the warranty covered it. This month I was driving to work and the car just died. I called aaa and had it towed to a total of 3 mechanics including the local Dodge dealership. Final prognosis was my timing chain broke. Not from wear and tear or stretching, it just snapped. The snapping of the timing chain caused the valves to bend which lead to the entire motor being tore down and piston by piston and ultimately having the bottom end rebuilt/replaced/etc. The part that sucks is this is a recall for my motor, year, and vehicle however my VIN number wasnt listed as part of the recall. So I had to pay $4000 to have my car fixed by aaa mechanic because the Dodge dealer wanted $7000 to fix it.

I was attempting to leave walmart parking lot and without warning the car died. I took it to be serviced and was told that it was giving no diagnostic codes. I picked the car up 3 days later and while bringing it home it died 3 times. I researched for reported complaints and found that this appears to be an ongoing issue. Why are these cars being sold? this is a very dangerous situation and I'm paying for a vehicle that I can't drive because there is a great risk of bodily harm or death to myself and others. This needs to be acknowledged and rectified!.

This is the second time in one year - the no. 2 cyllinder has broke. The dealership can not tell me why this is happening. But they did tell me that all replacement parts are rebuilt - no new parts. That is outrageous. Also, if the part goes bad and returned to crysler/Dodge - they will not make it known what the problem is to the dealership or to the consumer. .
