When I first purchased the vehicle it had a tick I asked the dealership what was that they told me it was a (hemi tick) that all chargers had that sound so I drove it to around 100, 000 miles and while driving down the road it begin to make this loud noise sounding like a truck . I took it to the shop and they told me my number 3 plug or whatever it's called was misfiring took it to crown dodge and they told me that it was going to cost me 8,599 to fix this probkem that I always had. Now I took it to another dealership and they told me before looking at it what was wrong come to find out I have the same vehicle as every sheriff in our town and he has fixed everyone of their vehicles with the exact same problem this sounds like a problem that is going on with a lot of these chargers and this is just weird to me it's no coincidence that I have talked to at least 20 other people with the same car as mine with the same issue. I want to know what can I do about this problem.

The number 6 piston is misfiring and causing the car to jerk. The part in other 2013 chargers has been recalled , mine is having the same issue , but not on recall list. It happens when car is stationary the most , but does happen when driving too. It happens on city streets and on highways.

I was driving normally on side street at 35 - 40 MPH. I approached and was entering an interstate on-ramp and as I started to accelerate the radio and AC turned off, ABS light and anti-skid icon appeared on dash, exterior lights acted erratically dimming and then coming back on, message envelope appeared, bells were ringing, car lost substantial power on ramp as I was trying to accelerate onto interstate and then "battery saver mode" message appeared. I could hear a high pitched whining noise that started out of nowhere but seemed to subside after a few minutes but the car seemed to shake or shudder some but not horribly. Almost like a rough idle but as I was driving. I was able to drive appx 5 miles to get off the interstate and park. Once I stopped and turned off the car, I did restart it to see what would happen and it started normally but after about 2 minutes, "power saver mode" came back on so I took car to dealership the next day and they said it was a faulty alternator. Alternator is model 4801778-ai, 180 amp model. Similar symptoms to recall p60 on 160 amp alternator. Having this happen while I was trying to accelerate onto the interstate almost caused me to get rear-ended!
