Problems with 2006 Dodge Charger EQUIPMENT

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge charger. the contact stated that the air conditioning unit failed without warning. the contact mentioned that the failure recurred several times. the vehicle was taken to the dealer and repaired; however, the failure persisted. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage and vin were unknown.

On feb. 17, 2011, i started to accelerate onto i-495 in maryland. hitting the accelerator for a fast take off, the accelerator broke off and the car went from 15 mph to 80 mph in 5 sec. i immediately put the car in neutral, got to the side of the road and applied the brakes. if there had been a another vehicle in front of me, i probably would not be making this post right now. so far, chrysler of dodge has done nothing. i did order a replacement accelerator assembly and made the repair. this could have been a fatality, if not for god and my own professional experience as a driver. dodge should at the least pay for the parts and labor of this repair. *tr

I have a 2006 dodge charger (hemi)the car wont' shift out of park. i can crank it and all but when i go to move it into gear . nothing . it's stuck. if this happens really often and the cheap piece of plastic is an issue this should be considered as a recall and to make a better stronger proper part other than a plastic milk top piece that can keep a 20,000 dollar car from functioning. please help. this has occurred twice to me at $370 the first time and $150 the second time . this is ridiculous and darn sure costly for the same part. parts replaced was a simple pink plastic. well i be d....(darn). ;-( i am sooooo not happy. *tr

I have a 2006 dodge charger with 47,000 miles on it. when i went to my mechanic to have the tires rotated (goodyear), they advised me that the steering tie rod (rt side) was so badly worn they did not even want me to drive it home ( i have saved the part). it is a sealed unit and should not need any lubrication other than what was initially designed into the part. obviously if one loses steering ability at speed the consequences could be significant. interestingly, the mechanic told me that i got the last one available in the milwaukee area. it makes me wonder if all the others were used for a similar replacement defect and/or it is being redesigned. *tr

I purchased a 2006 dodge charger brand new in march 2006. ever since then there has been problems. i have taken the car to the local dodge dealership where the car was purchased. i had been experiencing problems with the brakes not stopping and squeaking and the fact that i could be accelerating up to about 20-30mph and the car would not go any further. the car is showing signs of transmission problems. these problems lead me to the dealership which was where the car was purchased. the service department said i needed brake pads and nothing else was wrong, which i got brake pads from a different business. the car still continues to do the same thing with the problems with the transmission and the brakes. i see there was no results with going to the dealer so i contacted the corporate chrysler customer assistance # and they advised me to take the car back for a diagnosis, i advised them that i previously done that and there was nothing found. they told me there was nothing they could do because the dealer would need to recognize the problem. *tr

First as everyone else has experienced the brakes started to squeal. then around 30,000 miles when brakes were applied at speed around 60 mph the steering wheel began to vibrate. later followed by extreme motion in the wheel from left to right and eventually the brakes began to cease during acceleration. had the rotor resurfaced and new pads. 8,000 miles later steering wheel doing the same thing and when i took it to the dealership they said my tires were bad and nothing wrong with the brakes. i find this hard to believe as the exact same problem happened before ending up with a bill around $1,000. so now i am waiting for the breaks to get so bad that they will actually service the problem. i am so disgusted with this and don't know what course of action to take. *tr

I own a 2006 dodge charger srt8. my brakes has been squeaking since 7,500 miles. the brakes were wore out by that time. the life of a brake is 12,000 miles. there is only 21,500 miles now. i changed my front and back brakes three different times. even changed the rotors. to no avail they still squeak! i brought my car to the dealer service center at least 10 times about the brakes. last visit was in november 2007. they said there is nothing else that can be done. *tr

Both cars i got from the dealer broke down and had to be towed back to dealership. i told them i don't want to do business with them anymore . they never contacted the bank that the deal was no longer in affect and they needed to return the money. now my bank has me and the owner of the first car that was sold to someone else. i called the dmv and was told its true the first car belongs to someone else. i need help this is fraud. *tr

Had brake tsb done in sept. 06. maybe 3000 miles on car. drove my car on 7/12/07 and heard screeching from left rear brake. immediately drove to connel in oakland, ca. i got a call from the service department stating that all of my rotors needed replacing. the car has 12,500 miles on it. i've owned a 2004 honda element and still hasn't required brake service. how do rear pads wera before front pads on any vehicle? i had an oil change in june and there was no mention of brake problem.

No signal available for sirius sat radio. call sirius and they confirmed my radio was active but was not picking up a signal. took it to dodge where they determined it was the sat antenna. 3-4 day delivery time. *tr

Vehicle stalls without warning and has not been able to be repaired or " duplicated" what will it take to fix this problem? a serious traffic accident? i don't think so. *jb

Brake caliper makes noises when car is driving slow. *nm

I am about to file a lemon law complaint because dodge has been "unable to duplicate" the most serious problems that have plagued my vehicle, a 2006 dodge charger r/t, since day four of my ownership. i have owned this car for 68 days and of those, i have only been able to drive the functioning car for 19 days. they have fixed a number of minor issues and notified me that they would be unable to fix or do not know how to fix at this time, some minor issues including the air conditioning compressor problems (which they say they have also been "unable to duplicate". the serious issues that are occurring when it idles, when it accelerates and with what seems to be the suspension and possibly both the engine and transmission. of those 68 days, they have come to pick up my car on three different occasions to try and fix it, the last time (which continues currently) they have had my car for four weeks. i happen to know (upon researching after the prolonged period they have had the car) that tsb's or technical service bulletins have been issued for every problem that is occurring with my car. additionally, i have taken my car to two different mechanics (one dodge dealership and one independent mechanic) that have witnessed these malfunctions. i would like to know what my options are legally for getting some kind of resolution. *jb
