Engine And Engine Cooling Problems of Dodge Magnum - part 1

Vehicle engine codes were all corrected properly in hopes of fixing the stalling issues. The vehicle was seemingly better for a few days. Upon driving the vehicle on the highway at normal highway speed, the vehicle suddenly began flickering and shutting off and on. The vehicle would shut off and on rapidly. Each time the vehicle turned back on it would accelerate causing the vehicle to jolt forward and stop rapidly. The car would not allow me to brake safely. The vehicle behind was within inches of a collision but their quick response to slam on their brakes and swerved to the shoulder thankfully missed. This is not an isolated event. Speaking to other hemi 5. 7 vehicle owners this is a very common issue. I had a baby in a carseat in the backseat who was jolted around slamming the back of his head into his car seat. This is so dangerously unsafe. Not dealership can find the problem even after replacing every part possible on these vehicles.

The car won’t go in gear.

The vehicle stalled during normal use traveling about 35 miles an hour right after an intersection. My husband was able to safely make it off the road as we live in a small town he did this by feathering the accelerator pedal. He is a mechanic so he was able to get it home by lightly tapping the pedal. If he pressed the pedal too hard the car stalled without warning so he lightly tapped on it and made it 2 blocks to our home where it has set in the driveway ever since. We spent over $1000 replacing parts such as the throttle body and the fuel pump and sending unit, egr, pcv, crankshaft sensor, plugs,injectors, intake seals, air intake temperature sensor and throttle body which include the throttle position sensor. Before we went for the cam sensor I decided to look up the issue and found so many with the same problem as us. We are veterans on a semi fixed income with a 10 month old daughter and this is our only vehicle we live in a super hot place in northern arizona and can not afford further repairs as every part seems to be quite expensive. I don't have the fear of it dying while transporting my daughter again as it won't even stay started since the first incident. Additionally there are no codes or dash indicator lights staying on. We will be contacting Dodge in kingman arizona today.

I was braking when the brakes didn't stop the tires and it slid into a curve.

When vehicle has been filled up with gas it will intermittently die until it has around 50 miles on it. Usually sputters and dies without warning leaving you with no steering or brakes. Will restart but die until some fuel is ran out. I have scheduled to have the gas tank replaced but the fee is around $150.

After fueling at a gas station and only fueling until the pump shuts off, the engine dies about a block away. This happens every time the vehicle gets a full tank of gas.

"takata recall" I'm having trouble with my transmission. It goes from 1st to 3rd while driving. It stays in high gear until I bring the car to a complete stop and turn it off.

My car (2006 Dodge Magnum 5. 7 hemi)was running totally fine. . . . No warnings of any kind. I turned it off to run into the gym and it wouldn't start. A diagnostic test was run and they said the piston blew and it needs a new engine.

Without warning valve ring seat broke off fell into cylinder punching hole in piston. Bought a rebuilt motor for $7,000 and 70k miles later the same thing happens. Both instances the motor was running.

After my airbag recall, the car stopped running above 20mph. Returned it to the dealership only to find that it was the power control module, that would cost $1500 to fix. Somethings not right here. .

Alternator catch fire while driving no other problems good battery good everything.

Recently bought this car took it to the shop because the car was cutting off on its own whether parked or in drive which is very dangerous. Had it checked out and it came up with a code for crankshaft position sensor, got that changed the code went away but the car still turns off on its own and no codes show up. Crankshaft has now been changed 2 times&& the electrical things were checked just to be safe!&& a few days ago I was driving maybe about 35mph & the car decelerated on its own and I couldn't accelerate had to turn the car off then back on.

When pulling into driveway. My motor which up until this point has given me no problems started to violently shake and cut off. Went to start the car and got a loud clanging in motor which has been determined to be a dropped valve seat.

I called to have my car looked at and fixed this one has same issues , but I have to pay out of pocket for everything , hemi engines from 2005 to 2007 are dropping valve seats after 100,000 miles I want mine fixed before it happens to me again we definitely need a recall on these engines.

Case description I had a recalls on my 2008 Dodge Magnum for airbags, and ignition. Had it towed to comminwealth Dodge cause it stopped running while driving. They replaced the ignition, and supposedly replaced airbags also. The ignition allowed the car to then restart. However when I went to pick the car up it ran really badly, and had all the warning lights in the dash on. I confronted the dealership about this before even leaving the lot. They told me I would have to pay to have it looked at. I towed it to a different dealership where they found the main wiring harness pulled apart under the dash. After I picked the car up from them I've had the worst electrical problems imaginable. I've been stranded in ellensburg wa for 3 months, the battery died every 3-4 weeks. Fca will not even return any of my calls, and the dealership just tried to sell me a new car when I contact them. Please help.

I have a 2005 Dodge Magnum as I was driving home the etc light came on the dash board, then moments later my car just died, shut completely down, I let it sit for a little bit then cranked it back up, but it kept shutting down with the etc light continuing to come on , I then took it to auto care to get it looked at, . . . . They said it was the throttle body, they replaced it and I paid $168, the next morning I go to get in my car and the light comes back on and same problem happens they now say they must of gotten a faulty throttle body, changed it out again, next morning same thing happens, now they replace the main computer take it to Dodge get the computer reprogrammed and I pay $267. 00, guess what next day it does it again. Now Dodge has my car and they replace a solenoid-throttle body , I pay them $476. 00 after telling them the hole story they still replace the throttle body. Guess what the next morning I have my car towed back to Dodge dealership, doing the same thing. . . . They now replace the board and say it might be a wiring problem but they think they got it, they have no idea what is wrong with my car . Very frustrating I wish someone could help me. . Okay now I started to poke around myself at home and found that one of the four wire harnesses to the coumuter is to blame. I push on it and the car goes into limp mode. I now have an appointment to have a dealer fix it. I don't want to start only to find I can't buy the wire terminators needed in the plug.

Parked car for 10 minutes, no issues at all, after restarting there were a lot of noises and I was told the engine is broken and the fixing costs are around 12000$.

While driving down the highway or sitting in park, the bas light on the dash will come on, when it does this the engine goes to 800 rpm idle and the transmission goes into neutral, rendering of the vehicle in capable of driving until the vehicle comes to a complete stop, is placed in park, ignition shut off and restarted. Then you can operate the vehicle again until the next time it does this, which may be one minute or a week. This is extremely dangerous as it is happening to me going down the highway a couple of times, at which time I have to pull over to the shoulder shut the vehicle off restart the vehicle and then try to pull away. Twice I've almost been hit by semi tractor-trailers as the vehicle is coasting with no power. Please help me, I am in fear for my life if I drive this vehicle.

I was taking my family (wife, 18 month old, 2 yr old, and 4 yr old) to get some ice cream after a home depot trip. As I turned left across a busy street the stereo suddenly blinked out, and the engine died, along with power steering, brakes, and every electrical function. It simply blinked like all power was lost for a moment, and was enough to kill the engine, and loose all power assist functions of the vehicle. Thankfully I had momentum and was able to coast into the side street with out being t-boned by on coming traffic. I was sent recall p57/NHTSA 14v-567 in the mail in November 2014, but there was and still is no remedy for this recall which appears to be directly linked to my incident. How many fatal accidents are going to occur between now and the fix for the known issue? Dodge can build a brand new [xxx] between November and today, but they cannot manufacture a $. 50 part. Did they not learn from chevy? information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

Value sets.

2005 Dodge rt Magnum: right after full-up the car start jerking like if it was trying to cut off, but then smoothed back to normal operation and then started again jerking like if the car was trying to cut off and trying to stay started. After about 10 miles the car running without a problem again.

Driving a car that stops running with no warning is very dangerous. I can not believe there is not a recall for this problem.

Dropped drop valve seats.

After gas fill up, engine will die when stopping, and die in motion but restart itself, for 5 or 10 miles. This condition is ongoing since March 2014. Condition has also happened randomly on one occasion.

After filling the car with gas, exited the gas station and proceeded through a parking lot at 10-15 mph and the engine stumbled followed immediatly by a check oil light (no "check engine" light) and engine stopped running. I coasted to a stop, and attempted to restart the engine; after several attempts it started and I drove home without further incident. This happens regularly if I fill the fuel tank from a nearly empty condition (at on near "e"). The engine will always stumble once before it stops running. As such, I'm relegated to excercising caution after any/all fill-ups (drive around a parking lot for example) and never have kids in the car. Filling the tank from a 1/4 full condition seems to help.

I was driving when suddenly my car felt shaky and rough and started sputtering and losing idle unless I kept my foot on the gas. Car will start up but as soon as I take my foot off the gas it dies. Engine light started blinking. Mechanic stated there is no compression in #4 cylinder of engine. Cost is estimated at $1800 just to tear engine down to further diagnose. Car was running excellently and next second this. No warning. My mileage was only 93899 at time of failure.

I had just picked up the car in question after purchasing at a used car lot then drove it about 20 miles before I stopped for fuel at which time I filled the tank then as I went to pull out into the lane of traffic and began to pick up speed and at about 30 mph the car began stuttering then it died. Luckily it started up before the cars coming hit me. I have since filed it up several times before and realized that it was doing the same thing after each time I filled up , I then began doing some searching on the internet and seen that others were having the same issues so that led me to file this complaint. Can someone please look into this before someone gets seriously hurt?.
