Summary

I PURCHASED A NEW 2019 DODGE CHARGER SCATPACK. IT WAS PURCHASED AS A LEISURE CAR FOR WEEKEND USE. I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR A YEAR AND A HALF AND HAS 13000 MILES. THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHIMMY FROM THE FRONT BRAKES. THE FRONT VIBRATION BEGAN VERY LIGHT BUT HAS CONTINUED TO INCREASE. AT FIRST I BELIEVE THAT IT WAS PROBABLY CAUSED BY THE FACT THAT IT WAS NOT DRIVEN TO OFTEN AND THERE WAS PROBABLY A RUST BUILDUP OF SOME KIND. HOWEVER, IN RESEARCHING THE INTERNET IT APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP LABELED THE PROBLEM AS A WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE AND FOR THAT REASON IT WOULD BE MY RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX IT. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A POOR DESIGNED PROBLEM THAT THE MANUFACTURER IS REFUSING TO RECOGNIZE. I'VE OWNED MANY CARS IN MY 58 YEAR'S OF LIFE AND I KNOW THAT A BREAK ISSUE UNFORTUNATELY TAKES LOSS OF LIFE BEFORE IT'S ADDRESSED BY THE AUTHORITIES AND OR MANUFACTURER'S. I'M HOPING THAT THESE ISSUE IS ADDRESSED AS I'VE FOUND THROUGHOUT MY RESEARCH THAT IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND IT COMES WITH OTHER PROBLEMS LIKE BRAKE FAILURE ALSO. THE BRAKES ARE MANUFACTURED BY BREMBO BRAKE WHO HAS ALSO REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE A POSIBLE PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES.

Summary

THE FACTORY HALOGEN PROJECTOR HEADLAMPS ARE GROSSLY INADEQUATE FOR NIGHT TIME DRIVING. THE BEAM PATTERN IS VERY POOR, AND ILLUMINATION OF SIGNAGE TO THE RIGHT OF THE CAR IS NON-EXISTENT. THIS PRESENTS A VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION. I HAVE REPLACED THE FACTORY BULBS WITH HIGHER PERFORMANCE PARTS TO NO AVAIL. INCREASING THE INTENSITY OF A BAD BEAM PATTERN DOESN'T IMPROVE THE BEAM PATTERN. NHTSA SHOULD INVESTIGATE THE HEADLAMPS ON THE CURRENT GENERATION CHARGER. OVERALL, NHTSA SHOULD ADOPT THE ECE BEAM PATTERN. FINALLY, DRLS SHOULD BE BANNED. WITH NO BENEFIT, ALL THEY DO IS RAISE THE COST OF A VEHICLE AND CAUSE EXCESSIVE DAYTIME GLARE.

TOTAL LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING. WE WERE TRAVELING ON A MAIN ROAD DOING 30 MPH WITH AUTOS IN FRONT AND BEHIND US. SLOWED DOWN AND ATTEMPTED TO TURN ONTO SIDE STREET. IT WAS VERY HARD TO TURN ONTO THE SIDE STREET SINCE THERE WAS ABOUT 10 % OF POWER STEERING ASSIST. YOU COULD BARELY STEER INTO A PARKING SPOT. I CALLED FOR A TOW TRUCK TO DELIVER THE 2019 DODGE CHARGER SRT HELLCAT TO MY RESIDENCE. I WILL BE CALLING THE CLOSEST DODGE DEALER/ REPAIR CENTER FOR DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIRS TO BE MADE. THANK GOD NO PEOPLE, INJURED, PROPERTIES OR VEHICLES WERE DAMAGED OR KILLED. .

THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING 60 MPH ON A HIGHWAY WHEN I GOT A MESSAGE ON MY DASH SCREEN SAYING 'SERVICE SHIFTER'. IT DISAPPEARED AFTER ABOUT 3 SECONDS. NOTHING APPEARED AGAIN. THE CAR WAS ACTING FINE. TWO DAYS LATER THE CAR UNLOCKED BY THE REMOTE AND THEN WOULD NOT START. THE SHIFTER KNOB FLASHED RED MULTIPLE TIMES REPEATEDLY. I COULDN'T LOCK THE DOOR OR THE CAR WOULD AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK ALL DOORS AS IF I HAD THE KEY FOB INSIDE STILL. I COULD NOT START THE CAR, TURN ON ACCESSORIES OR SHIFT INTO ANY GEAR. I HAD POWER TO MY LIGHTS ETC. MY REMOTE WOULDN'T WORK FOR LOCKING OR UNLOCKING OR REMOTE START ANYMORE. I WAS ABLE TO EVENTUALLY START THE CAR AFTER UNHOOKING THE BATTERY CABLE AND REATTACHING IT. TRIED TO DRIVE THE CAR AND WHILE IN DRIVE GOING DOWN THE ROAD ON A PUBLIC STREET IT AUTOMATICALLY SLAMMED THE CAR INTO PARK EVEN THOUGH THE SHIFTER HAD NOT BEEN MOVED. IT STARTED ACTING LIKE THE CAR WAS IN PARK WHEN I HAD BEEN DRIVING. THE SHIFTER ONCE AGAIN STARTED FLASHING RED MULTIPLES TIMES REPEATEDLY AND I COULD MOVE THE SHIFTER THIS TIME, BUT IT DID NOT REGISTER WITH THE CAR. IT STILL ACTED AS IF IT WAS IN PARK. I WAS ABLE TO RESET THE SYSTEM TEMPORARILY BY UNHOOKING THE BATTERY AND REATTACHING IT AGAIN TO GET IT HOME.

Vehicle Identification Number: 2C3CDXGJ3KH******
Summary

THE REAR BRAKE PADS DO NOT SWEEP THE ENTIRE SURFACE OF THE REAR ROTORS. NEARLY 25% OF THE REAR ROTOR IS NOT IN CONTACT WITH THE REAR BRAKE PADS. THIS DIMINISHES BRAKING FORCE AND MAKES THE REAR ROTOR INCOMPATIBLE WITH CURRENTLY AVAILABLE REPLACEMENT PADS. THIS DEFECT IS VISUALLY APPARENT WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY. IT ALSO IMPACTS THE VEHICLES ABILITY TO COME TO A STOP WHILE IN MOTION. I SUSPECT THAT THE WRONG PARTS WERE INSTALLED BY THE MANUFACTURER OR THERE IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT PRESENT.

Summary

I HAVE THE 2019 DODGE SCAT PACK, BASE MODEL, NO OPTIONS. IT COMES WITH THE 4-PISTON BREMBO CALIPERS ON THE REAR WHEELS. THE FACTORY BRAKE PAD ONLY CONTACTS A LITTLE OVER HALF OF THE ROTOR. THIS IS ON BOTH REAR WHEELS, INSIDE AND OUTSIDE SURFACE. THIS EASILY REDUCES BRAKING FORCE BY HALF; MUCH MORE WHEN THE CAR IS FULLY LOADED. THE PADS DO NOT LOOK DAMAGED, JUST AN OBVIOUS DEFECT (SEE PICTURES COMPARED TO REPLACEMENT PAD). OTHER DODGE SCAT PACKS REPORT SIMILAR DEFECTS. I CONTACTED BREMBO BACK IN DECEMBER, AND AFTER MULTIPLE CONTACTS, NOTHING TO THIS DAY (EVEN THOUGH INITIALLY THEY SAID THEY'D CONTACT ME BACK IN A FEW DAYS SINCE THIS LOOKED UNUSUAL). I CONTACTED FCA, AND THEY HAD NO CLUE ABOUT THIS, SO I VISITED MY LOCAL PALMEN DODGE, RACINE, WI. THE PARTS MANAGER SAID HE'D NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE EITHER. WHEN WE LOOKED UP REPLACEMENT PADS, THEY WERE "NORMAL" LOOKING, LIKE THE ONE NEXT TO THE STOCK PAD THAT CAME WITH THE CAR. UNFORTUNATELY, THIS IS WEARING A WIDE GROOVE IN THE ROTOR, WHICH WILL THEN HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER CONFIRMED THAT I'D HAVE TO BUY IT MYSELF SINCE WEAR ITEMS ARE NOT COVERED. I HAVE CHANGED THIS PAD TYPE MANY TIMES, SINCE 2009, AND HAVE NEVER SEEN A PAD CUT BACK LIKE THIS. I AM WORRIED THAT IF I HAVE TO STOP QUICKLY, I WILL NOT GET FULL BRAKING IN THE REAR SINCE THE PADS ARE ONLY COVERING PART OF IT. SECONDLY, I WILL HAVE TO BUY TWO NEW REAR ROTORS, AND PADS, TO GET THE FULL STOPPING POWER THAT THE MANUFACTURER INTENDED. *LN*JB
