May 25 2020, 2012 Dodge Charger se. I was parking the vehicle in a residential area and tried to make a left turn to straighten the car, the service power steering light came on and I'm not able to turn the steering wheel in any direction. Took the vehicle to the mechanic and he changed the fuse 4 different times and it popped on him. No one has any remedies to correct this issue that's obviously now an ongoing problem with Dodge Chargers throughout different years and models. Please have a recall performed for the parts needed to remedy this situation. The vehicle should not be on the road under these conditions.

All dash indicators started flashing and there was a message stating not to put the car in park or it will not go back into a gear. Service power steering light came on and power steering went completely out, almost causing an accident. If there were traffic, it would have. Parked car, started it a few hours later and everything seemed fine. Driving on residential street and power steering went out suddenly again. Service power steering message has remained and the power steering no longer works at all. This is a safety issue! I am thankful my 17 year old daughter was not driving any of the times it happened!.
While driving all the warning on the drivers panel stated to ding and warning to not put car into park or it may not be able to be put back into gear. The service power steering warning, they stayed in making all sort of noise for a couple minutes. Power steering was not working all of a sudden either. I almost wrecked into the car beside me. Parked the car once I got home, boyfriend looked at it and it seemed fine to him. This happened a couple different times since then. The power steering will just stop working. The service power steering warning light comes on now and then. It is dangerous! I am just happy my daughter was not driving when it happened, that could have been tragic as she has only been driving just under 2 years. I have looked this up and it seems to be a problem that many others have experienced. It is so dangerous when the steering goes out, there should be a recall on this!.
Today when getting in my car my power steering service light came on. I took my vehicle in to be serviced for a u60 14-18my la/lx/ld can bus as pe recall (reprogram). I told them about my concern with my power steering. When I wen to pick up my vehicle I was told the unit had to be replaced. I have no clue what caused my power steering to go out. But it has been an extreme hassle for my to turn my vehicle.

Tl- the contact owns a 2012 Dodge Charger. The contact stated while trying to park the vehicle, when the steering wheel became difficult to turn. The contact stated the electric power steering wheel light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken previously to local dealer glendale Dodge Chrysler Jeep located at 900 s brand blvd, glendale, CA 91204, (818) 839-2457 and was made aware of the failure, was not diagnosed.

While driving my car just about every light on my dash flashed on then the steering wheel light stayed on; as it became hard for me to turn wheel after I had pulled over to turn car off. I took to mechanic and he detected that it was the power steering pump. The mechanic called dealership for car part the next day because Dodge service department was closed because of holiday. So today when he called he said they informed him that it was a common problem with the Dodge Chargers. My question is if it is known to be a problem with the power steering pump with the Dodge Chargers shouldn’t it be a recall on it.
Upon start up of vehicle no power steering, service power steering unit light came on. No previous warning, no noises, got the car to Dodge dealership, they say it is electronic power steering unit and gear failure. Vehicle has 40,100 mi. On it. I have an extended warranty, waiting to see if it is going to cover a $3500. 00 repair.

2014 Dodge Charger with only 55k miles on it - power steering going out, mid drive it will set off the power steering warning lights and then sometimes the power steering goes out. This seems ridiculous for a low mileage car!.
Takata recall I was leaving church and was about to stop at a gas station to get coffee and a doughnut like I usually do every Sunday. I was about to make a right turn into the gas station, my steering all of a sudden got stiff and the power steering warning light came on and my windshield wipers came on and it scared the day lights out of me. I had to go on the curb a little just to make the turn.
I currently own a 2011 Dodge Charger and I got into my car and noticed that all of the lights were on in the dash board from the wind shield wipers, power steering service light was flashing, brake lights I mean every light was on. I took the car to the dealer because I purchased the car December 2012 and I remember the dealer saying that I had the previous owners warranty but to find out I only had the power train warranty and was told that I had to pay $120. 00 just for a diagnostic. My husband was furious and took the car to another shop and they stated that the car just needed fuses when all of the fuses were replaced all of the lights went off but the power steering went all the way out so now I have not been able to drive my car until I can get the money to see what is wrong with the power steering it is unfortunate that my car has been sitting up for 2 months now. A fairly new car and I am having these problems this is just crazy I check the Dodge website for recalls and I didn't see anything.
