Dodge Charger owners have reported 5 problems related to oil pump (under the engine and engine cooling category). The most recently reported issues are listed below. Also please check out the statistics and reliability analysis of Dodge Charger based on all problems reported for the Charger.
The oil pump is not giving enough pressure for the car to accelerate therefore causing problems on the road and many times dangerous situations. There is also a check engine light on. I replaced everything that could be wrong with it except the dual stage oil pump. I've talked to many technicians and they said that that is the only thing it can be. Please review this on the 2012 Dodge Charger sxt rwd 3. 6l engine. It is a safety concern.

I was traveling along the interstate and noticed a hesitation in my automobile due to a seized up engine. Just before it seized up I heard a knocking sound coming from the engine. The car would not start. The car was towed to a garage. The service person did an investigation an informed me that the engine was damaged and would need a complete overhaul or replacement. I was told by the machanic that the engine in the vehicle is notorious for failure due to a malfuctioning oil pump or defective connecting rod bearing. I did some research an found that there is a recall associated with a failed connecting rod bearing. One of my CO-workers experienced the same thing with his automobile which is a Chrysler/Dodge product. This engine is a safety hazard in that by seizing up while in motion it could cause the driver to loose control of the vehicle resulting in serious injury or death.
