Headlamps are not working therefore causing a safety issue when driving at night. Initially, 2 years ago, April 2021 the driver headlamp was not working. Dodge dealership had replaced and within the year the bulb would come off and on intermittently. It cost over $400. 00. On March 18, 2022 I took it back to Dodge dealership and because it was working that day they just said to bring it when it was not working? they had the car for the whole day and did not inspect anything. Now a year later both of my headlamps are not working and took it back to them again. Now my fuses are melted and have been told by them that the cars electrical system is faulty. The car will need a new pdc power distribution center unit that controls the electrical power which is no longer made. He found a dealer that has the unit available but also includes the wires harness . The charge for this including labor is 5300 if he the dealer will sell it to him. He did not advise of price for part and labor separately. The dealer charged me 212. 00 to tell me this. Meanwhile I have a car that is only 7 years old that I cannot drive safely at night and it will not pass motor vehicle inspection which is in 2 weeks. Therefore, now I own a car I cannot legally have on the road because of this issue with the headlamps.
Headlights go out when replacing. Fuel smell in cab. Engine ticking front wheels knocking on bumps inspection done by police could cause major wreck all of the above.
The headlight bulbs, like a past recall on the 2011-2012 Chargers, regularly fry through fuses and stop working. This is obviously caused by a more serious issue in the vehicle and should be recalled. . Read more...

The harness on the car is defected and the engine light will not go off on the car.
The led lights on the rear of the vehicle are very bright at night. Due to the continuous bar with no breaks, it is difficult for others to judge distance and speed. This is very evident when driving in mixed traffic. Vehicles with two separate lights are easier to judge distance and speed differences. This is a known problem with stereo vision limitations at night.
