Brake Disc Caliper Problems of Dodge Charger

I purchased 2016 Dodge Charger one month ago from California auto direct in montclair. While signing the paperwork, we questioned a $1,000 dealer charge which they explained was for a thorough inspection before putting their car on the lot to sell (all lies). Since I purchased the car on 3/7/20, the car has stalled on me while driving 3 times. I took the car to a "Dodge" dealer and they fixed a recall, oil leak and replaced a missing caliper, old battery. After completing all the repairs, the car stalled on me again. Each time the steering and brakes locked up. The dealership found no codes as to why the car just stops while driving. This car is a safety hazard. I contacted Dodge. Com online chat and they told me to let the dealer try and work on it and use their resources. Unfortunately, they can't find anything. I read about recalls on other Dodge Chargers and challengers that had similar problems, unfortunately not m year. . . 2016.

I have the 2019 Dodge scat pack, base model, no options. It comes with the 4-piston brembo calipers on the rear wheels. The factory brake pad only contacts a little over half of the rotor. This is on both rear wheels, inside and outside surface. This easily reduces braking force by half; much more when the car is fully loaded. The pads do not look damaged, just an obvious defect (see pictures compared to replacement pad). Other Dodge scat packs report similar defects. I contacted brembo back in December, and after multiple contacts, nothing to this day (even though initially they said they'd contact me back in a few days since this looked unusual). I contacted fca, and they had no clue about this, so I visited my local palmen Dodge, racine, WI. The parts manager said he'd never seen this before either. When we looked up replacement pads, they were "normal" looking, like the one next to the stock pad that came with the car. Unfortunately, this is wearing a wide groove in the rotor, which will then have to be replaced. The dealer confirmed that I'd have to buy it myself since wear items are not covered. I have changed this pad type many times, since 2009, and have never seen a pad cut back like this. I am worried that if I have to stop quickly, I will not get full braking in the rear since the pads are only covering part of it. Secondly, I will have to buy two new rear rotors, and pads, to get the full stopping power that the manufacturer intended.
