I have had at least 3 of the issues of the complaints I am seeing here and wondering why there has been no recalls issued: 1) car would not accelerate or it would die after filling up the gas tank. Went on line and found others having similar problem. Fix: do not fill your gas tank up all the way and also do not let it get too close to empty. 2) neither the back hatch or the hood will stay up on their own. Have been hit in the head with the back hatch numerous times - sometimes it works. 3) could not get car out of park. Again went on line and even found a youtube video explaning how to remove the pink thingy from the gear counsel and all will be ok. Saved hundreds of dollars but now no safety due to the fact that car can be turned off in all gears.

I have not had a complete failure. Waiting on that to happen. I purchased a brand new 2005 Dodge Magnum sxt with v6, automatic transmission in 2005 from a dealership. It had approximately 36 miles on it. I have not had the pulling to the right everyone else had, but it does make a funny scrubbing sound while driving as if the tire was rubbing against the car on the right rear passenger side and several other problems that are common. I have depressed the brake and felt vibrations from pedal on several occasions. The car doesn't seem to be able to stop completely. I even got out to look,thinking I hit something. A few months ago, the power outlet located inside the astray stopped working. It blew a fuse, I replaced it. Then, two weeks ago, the power outlet in the console stopped working. Just two days ago, the battery went dead for the second time in three months. I replaced the battery again. Now all the sudden the ac/heater stopped working. You can hear it trying to come on, but the fan motor doesn't seem to be coming on. We've noticed that the headlights seem to surge at night. I will be taking our car in to the dealership, along with copies of complaints from other consumers.
Four year old 55,000 mile car. Hood will not stay open.
The clearcoat on the r/t wheels bubbles and comes off around the center cap. This in turns corrode.

Owner feels that it is a safety defect that there is a blind spot because when you look out to the driver's side window, the view is blocked by the position of the rearview mirror. This problem was noticed when the owner was driving on a main road. The owner has reported to dealer who states there is a design of low bucket seats and that the vehicle fits with all federal motor vehicle safety standards. The manufacture was contacted and reported the same as dealer. Owner is also pursuing the lemon law about this car. 2005 Magnum had to be chosen even though it is a 2006 vehicle, daimler Chrysler had no listings in 2006.
I purchased my 2005 Dodge Magnum new in October of 2004. The vehicle has had a right pull/drift since it was new. Conventional alignments have not corrected problem. The dealer now informs me they need to realign the sub frame and then realign the vehicle. This is a $300. 00 or more repair and is not covered under warranty. I have complained to Chrysler and they will not cover repair under warranty. The tires have premature wear also. With less than 25,000 miles I need new tires now.
