Driving car and the gas pedal quit working and coasted in gas station parking lot. Waited for a family member, after 15 minutes I drove a 1/2 mile to work. Upon parking, I reversed to align better, and the throttle went out again along with horn going off and the windows going up and down. In this time all lights were flashing on dash. It was taken to mechanic, who worked for dodge for 14 years and he said this is a problem with many chysler, dodge, and jeep vehicles. He is replacing the lipm to correct the problem. I believe this has been recalled in many other mopar vehicles and is unacceptable as this is my teenage's car. I pos to the ceo of dodge to put his child behind the wheel of this car. What if this tipm burns/melts the board again? No warning, my child was on way to work on a busy road, speed limit 55mph and it a gas station was not to her right, who knows what the outcome could have been the car would not go and there was no shoulder either. You can do the speculation. I have not received invoice yet but the price for tow and fix is $751.00.

This is in regard to the dodge t36 alternator recall. After the recall was announced, my car was affected. I want to add another report. In mid 2017, a higher pitch noise was coming from the engine. 2 to 3 months later, I took the car to my dealer who affirmed the noise was the sound of the alternator charging. The recall replacement part was not available. As long as I was operational, the advice was to wait. 2 months after the dealer visit, while driving one morning, my alternator failed, the battery was dead, and my engine died. When I left out that morning, a couple of the idiot lights came on which was weird. Then 15 minutes later, while in traffic on a busy road, the radio was glitching, many of the warning lights came on, power steering went out. I was able to move over to the right lane, though nearly sideswiping another vehicle in the process. The engine then just ceased. I was able to coast to a stop in a safe spot. No power whatsoever. Car towed to dealer. Dealer claimed battery, which was the original, did not die as a result of the alternator failure. To me, the timing says otherwise. If the battery was on its way out, this sure finished it off. Dealer installed a new battery and a replacement alternator - but this was the existing non-replacement alternator stock. Once the recall replacement part becomes available, whenever that will be, I will need to take the car in again to have that put in if it's a replacement part to the alternator. Otherwise, if it's a whole alternator unit, then they will swap out the existing stock new one I received. Dealer/mfr did not cover the cost of the new battery. They did replace the alternator at no cost.

Vehicle mileage: approx 36,000.00 v8 5.7l dodge challenger 2012 I was driving my vehicle yesterday and after about 20 minutes part highway driving and part city street drives, during motion all the lights on the dash and center navigation screen started to flash. My power steering and brakes were not working. I was lucky enough to be able to get into a driveway from the city streets. When I popped the hood it was warm and had a smoky smell. The dodge dealership told me today that with only 36,000 miles my alternator is bad and needs to be replaced, other damage is still being accessed. I am now paying over $1,000.00 to get the alternator replaced.

Tried to start the car and all the dash lights, interior lights and radio worked just fine. Got someone to give me a jump and it started right up so I went and bought a new battery and that worked for about 3 days then the exact same thing happened again. This time I took it straight to the local dodge dealership and after 2 1/2 days they say it's the total integrated power module, or the tipm.
