The driver's side wheel had a loud metal on metal scraping noise, both with braking and without braking, in both drive and in reverse positions. The noise only lasted for approximately two miles and could not be replicated, when I arrived at the tire place. They did replace some brake hardware on that side, saying that it was a thin metal piece behind the brake pad was bent. But now, two weeks later the wheel was making the same noise but not as loudly and it also went away on its own after driving a few miles. In addition my drivers front tire is terribly out of alignment and wore the outer edge of the tire nearly bald. I do not know if this is associated with the brake hardware or not, I have not fully investigated it yet. When the tire shop did an alignment on my car they were unable to correct my alignment problem. They told me that it had to do with the way that the motor was sitting in my car. My car is an all-wheel-drive and it was into the Dodge dealership for the timing chain guide recall a year ago. My tires at that point time we're only two years old now they are only three years old. The uneven wear on the tire has been within the last year. At the recall repair my car had 33,000 miles on it and currently my car has 43,000 miles on it. I had new tires put on at 18,000 miles.

Driving from philly to NJ at 2am on Sunday right before I entered the bridge lost power steering,abs,radio and battery saver light came on I had my wife and 3 kids with me after a minute or so started losing the headlights . I just wanted to get to jersey side and stop somewhere and call for help. I was very lucky because got to rt. 73 highway and mt. Laurel police spotted me and helped me a lot by taking us home safe. I had my car towed to the nearest garage and they told me the alternator died so I called the Dodge dealership they said that no Dodge Chargers had that problem reported before I was "first". They were so rude on the phone and said just suck it up and pay $790 . Well I got it fixed not at the dealership but at the gas station mechanic . I also paid $150 for towing and now I'm afraid that its going to fail again soon. I called the corporate right after I heard about the recall and they told me that my VIN it is not recalled. They still investigating for more VIN numbers.

Driving home from a visit brakes stopped working. No warning lights just pushed pedal to floor and the car wouldn't stop.

My 2011 Dodge Charger battery saving mode light is blinking on and off as well as my abs/skid control then all of the sudden my vehicle starts slowing down on the highway while going the speed of 60 mph causing the car to lock up. My wife is 8 months pregnant and I feel like that not only put her in danger but my unborn child as well. This situation I feel needs to be recalled and fix ASAP before someone looses a loved one over a malfunction with these vehicles. I had to get my vehicle towed to the Dodge dealer who told me that my alternator went out and completely drained my battery in my car causing me to have to come out of pocket for both. I really don't drive my vehicle a lot for all these things to be happening I hope that the 2015 Dodge Charger is better. . .

I have a 2011 Dodge Charger that I saved up a long time to buy. Last week on 9/3/14 on my to take my kids to school the audio in the car went out. The touch screen still had functionality just no audio, figured a fuse may have blown. Check the fuses and everything seemed ok. Later on the same day, on the way to pick the kids up from school the radio was working fine. I approached a intersection and started to slow down when the radio cut off. The car started puttering and the inside gauges began flashing and the wipers just turned on by themselves. Next thing I know everything in the car shut off. The radio,the engine, the lights, everything. I could not get it to go into neutral to push the car out of the road because nothing in the car would come on.

While driving down highway 61 on may 13,2014 I noticed my warning lights coming on and then the check engine light. I had no where to pull over so approx. , 10 miles later the battery safe mode came on and then I started smelling something burning. I pulled over and called to have someone take my car back to town. I then needed to replace the battery and alternator before the car would run again. Then on 7/8/2014 the exact same problem proceeded to happen again ad this time I took the vehicle to meineke where they ended up having to replace the alternator and battery again at another cost of $1,148. 66 on top of the first $803. 16 that I had put into the car a month earlier. This car got so hot and you could tell there was obviously and electrical problem but all anyone would say is that its starting at the alternator.

This is the third time that all the idiot lights on the dashboard come on and then we proceed to lose the power steering and brakes. Chrysler's lemon law division states that they will fix it and that my issue is not a lemon law case. I simply have requested them to take the car back and have their engineering department take it apart to find out what is going on with I and to give me a new vehicle. Each of the three times this has occurred, we have been extremely fortunate to be in a parking lot only traveling a couple miles per hour. This issue was suppose to have been resolved already and has not apparently. I no longer trust my safety and life nor the safety and well being of others on the road if I were to drive this car again. The only remedies that are acceptable to me are to remove all the electrical wiring and computers and replace them with new or to exchange the vehicle. I fear for my safety with this car. Please note that I also have a 2011 Chrysler 300c that has been fine with no major issues.

Driving at 70mph speed limit,a car came over into my lane,and I had to slow down. I then pushed down on the accelerator to get back up to speed,and nothing. There was no acceleration at all,even after I kept pushing on the peddle. I had to take a fast look behind me,and go across 3 lanes of traffic,all going 70mph and more,to get the car to the right side of the road. We were lucky the 4 of us were not killed. The car went down to below 30mph,even though I kept pushing on the gas. Then it took off. This happened 2 times,and not quit so bad a few other times. We were on a 1 month trip,and when we left the car had just over 6,000 miles on it,and was 6 months old. When we got home it was 7 months old with 12,000 miles on it. At one point Chrysler corp. Told me it fits into the car buy back replacement program. They did not help me. I got a 2012 Charger because I did not trust the 2011. It could kill someone. They say the car is fixed,but I am not going to risk my family's life on it. Has there been any other cars with this problem,of no acceleration? is it a problem with the multiple displacement system? sounds like it. Thank you for your help. It sounds like Chrysler corp. Just dose not believe me,that there is no acceleration. Parts replaced were,hydraulic-tappets,multiple displacement solenoid,head gasket,sparkplugs,oil&filter.
