I have had to replace my tires every 9 months and rotate them every 3 weeks. Finally, I asked my tire shop why. He said the way this Dodge Charger was built, the tires are at an angle so they wear unevenly, which also makes it wear faster. I thought I was being fed a story, so I took it somewhere else. The told me the same exact thing. This is very expensive and dangerous. I'm just waiting for a tire to blow out on the highway.
Passenger air bag light comes on and stays illuminated in dash, tire pressure light comes on and goes off often when driving and when I purchased the vehicle a sensor was replaced and since I purchased the vehicle in 2016 the car has been hard to steer. The cars steering is still hard to steer when making turns. It acts as if it is going to lock up.
I bought my 2011 Charger in July 2012 with 32000miles on it. Four months after buying my Charger I had to replace both back tires. The tires were so worn out the wire was showing. Bought 2 new tires , by January 2013. These were used tires. In may 2012 , I bought 4 new tires and had an alignment done. August 2013 the back tires had wire showing again. Dealer said it was the tow bar . I bought it in for repairs $350. I am currently buying back tires every 3-4 months. Recall comes out about abs light and electrical system which can affect esc functions. I was thinking "ok well maybe I driving so much I'm wearing down my tires" because between oil changes I had a 10,000 mile jump. Couldn't figure how I did 10,000 miles in 3 months. Now after careful study I found out esc function affects how the speedometer reads, tire travel , and mileage reading. This car has been trouble since I bought it. In 2 years it says I've traveled 70,000 miles. What a rip off! the back end of the car just wobbles freely. Junk car.
I tried to make a quick stop and the vehicle would not stop. My anti-lock brake system did not work I crashed and the airbags did not deploy.
