2017 Dodge Charger Power Train

Dodge will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front driveshaft, free of charge. The recall began June 27, 2018. The recall number is 18V281000 Dodge’s number for this recall is U37

The transmission in my car completely failed. I was driving home from work. The check engine light came on. Then I noticed the transmission wasn't changing gears. I also noticed a burning smell as well. I towed the vehicle to the dealership. They discovered the transmission fluid was burned due to over heating. The transmission was locked into 2rd gear. That happened at the end of September with about 59,000 miles. The warranty company sent the dealership a used transmission to dealership. On Monday November 27 while driving home, the transmission failed again. I put about 2,000 miles on the vehicle. For my understanding, this is a known issue with Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep/RAM for the transmissions in their vehicles to fail. The manufacturer knows there's a problem. However, the manufacturer hasn't addressed the issue.

I was driving my 2017 dodge charger one day and the light came on service shifter . Then the clutch was making this ticking noise after a couple days he went off . Then one day I got in my car and the car shut off went the lights and windshield wipers come on by it self and the car wouldn’t crank at all . By the way the car cut off in the middle of the road . I goes to Abby dodge and they charge me a 1,038 dollars to fix the shifter . A couple days later the car says replace shifter again .Then it goes off . Then 8 months later my car does it again . The light comes back on and says service shifter . I had appointment with dodge again on August 25 and I took my car there . They claim they replace my shifter . Now my car did want do anything it would crank or anything .

My car has been making a loud rattling sound. I had it checked out today and the mechanic is reporting that it's the power train. I see that this is listed a frequent recall problem. My mechanic said that he's seen the same thing. This is going to be over $4000 in repairs that I really believe should be a recall problem if it's fallen under it for other vehicles.

The drive shaft on my Charger started to make a clicking noise. At 56,694 miles I had to replace the drive shaft at an independent garage because the Dodge dealer could not see my car for 3 weeks. The drive shaft is at the garage and available for inspection. I called Dodge for any compensation, and they said they would not provide any.

NOISE FROM THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL AREA. WHEN GOING SPEEDS OF 65+ MPH THERE IS A HOWLING/WHINING NOISE THAT IS CONSTANT. WHEN I LET OFF THE GAS IT GOES AWAY. WHEN I GET BACK ON THE GAS IT COMES BACK. I HAVE HAD THE REAR DIFF REPLACED AND HAVE HAD IT IN MULTIPLE TIMES FOR DIAGNOSTICS/FLUID CHANGES WITH NO FIX IN SITE. FCA TOLD ME, TO BAD, THAT IS A NORMAL NOISE AND THERE IS NOTHING ELSE WE CAN DO TO FIX THE ISSUE. A BRAND NEW CAR WITH AN OLD CAR NOISE? UNACCEPTABLE.
