What owners say

ABS module needs to be replaced and they stopped making the part. Lights are on all the time with no cruise control and the advanced brake system no longer works. Nobody has the part. They do not make it anymore.

The ABS module has malfunctioned which affects the cruise control, most of the dash controls on the steering wheel and has several lights on the dash that stay lit. The Dodge dealer is aware of this and states that right now there is no fix from Dodge. I'm putting an estimate date below due to ongoing issue.

When I bought the car all brake lights were on. I took it to Landers and they diagnosed the problem as a bad ABS control module and another part connected to it. I'm unable to use cruise control and my traction control is off as well. The warning lights will occasionally go off but they are usually on. Also the manufacturer has discontinued the parts I need so I can't get them to fix the issues.

My stability control light came on the same day I went up a steep driveway. It has happened before as my tires slipped on some sand but the light turned right off. This time it has stayed on and it was diagnosed as the multi-axis acceleration sensor (aka dynamic sensor) internal failure. Firestone had never heard of this part going out nor has my mechanic. I am hoping something is wrong and this part gets recalled as I do believe the steep driveway caused this issue which should not happen. I am able to still drive my car but the cruise control is now disabled as the car thinks the car can be unstable/unsafe in cruise control mode.

Car has approximately 90,000 miles. Driving on interstate at highway speed, car suddenly popped 3 lights; traction control, ABS, and the parking brake indicator. Repair shop has diagnosed as the ABS module needing replacement. There are no other symptoms besides the warning lights and cruise control not working. At this time I have no way of knowing if any of these systems have actually failed since the ABS module has shut off these systems.

My 2014 dodge charger has now had the steering wheel and rod come out in my lap twice now while driving within three months. I have reported this with fca corporate, this is now my third report and complaint with the vehicle safety department, now two open safety claims with chrysler corporate in denver and also have had the repairs done once by larry h miller I am trying to get the same repair done again but no one will return my phone calls and no one is willing to take accountability of this vehicle and fix it. Total care warranty has a contract with larry h miller for 12 months or 12,000 miles that they must fix the repairs no matter what. Larry h miller claimed that total care was not going to cover the fixes even though they are the ones that are supposed to fix it. Fraud, lies, unsafe and unprofessional practices. I have almost been in an accident twice now. The steering wheel literally falls out while I am adjusting it up or down even if I am going slow or in park. No one will fix my vehicle, no one will call me back. I contacted the dealership I bought it from since I am the first and only owner, and they will not return my phone calls. Gerry with fca management in the claims department in denver with whom my claims were managed by, now he will not return any of my emails or phone calls regarding my cases with chrysler corporate. I will be contacting the manufacturer and the secretary of transportation and also file this federally. By law I should have an equivalent vehicle replaced since mine is a faulty vehicle. I have a defective part and already replaced and covered by my warranty for almost $6000 and now within a month the exact same steering wheel and rod fell into my lap while driving while it was raining took off my windshield wiper lever now I have no blinkers now I have no windshield wipers and now my cruise control and all wheel drive or out too. *dt *dt*jb *dt

I have owned the car for a little over a year, since then I have had the steering wheel and the steering wheel rod/column completely come out in my lap.. Once while driving. I have already had it fixed by my certified preowned warranty and once again it has done it. This time it took off my windshield wiper lever, it has completely destroyed my interior and unfortunately the warranty did not cover that which is not fair. Remember the steering wheel column and rod is very heavy and does much damage when it falls in your lap while driving. I have been the only owner, it has never been in an accident, I have only serviced and bought it from a dodge dealership. The car now has 69,000 miles and recently was fixed over a month ago and issue still remains. My car was in the shop for over 20 days I did not get a rental vehicle and it was the most pain I've ever experienced when it comes to dealing with warrantees and dealerships I have ever experienced in my life. This needs to be addressed or I will take other matters. I have been the only owner, it has never been in an accident, I have only serviced and bought it from a dodge dealership.

And now the cruise control does not work

After the PCM / TCM cruise control recall service, the transmission has not been the same. The shifting is all off and the transmission lunges and clunks. I have taken the vehicle back to the dealer several times. They report the transmission is functioning properly. When clearly it is not. The car lunges forward when coming to a stop.

While driving, I conducted a normal pass on a two lane road. When I pressed the acceleration pedal, the car took off at a dramatic pace. The car continued to accelerate well over 100 MPH. Dragging the brake kept the car from continuing to accelerate to its full capacity. Shifting in neutral had no effect as the engine maintained its full RPM. While in neutral, the car's computer would not allow the engine to be shut off displaying a message that the car had to be in park before that was allowed to happen. Placed the car in neutral, applied full braking, and brought the car to a standstill as the engine continued to run at full RPM. Shifted to park and turned the car off. I let it sit for 10 minutes and started it again. Car performed normal. Dodge has a known issue/recall for the same situation when using cruise control and I believe the issue is present while not using cruise control as well. Less than a month ago, the car was serviced at the local dodge dealer under the recall to correct the cruise control issue.

I'm still having, (battery saver mode light coming on). And now I'm worried about the ("takata recall"). I've taken my dodge charger back to dodge dealership for service today, 11/16/17, as the (ABS) & (traction control) lights both were on. And as I was driving my car to the dealership I tried to set my cruise control at 75 MPH as I was on I-77 south, but I couldn't get it to set at any speed. Today 11/17/2017 my repair bill is $350.00 dollars + a car payment and hopefully I can get home with the alternator issues. I'm tired of paying for something that I'm afraid to drive anywhere I need to go. This dodge belongs to a family of 4 including myself, can someone please help me get something done asap I think I have a beautiful vehicle and I don't really want to trade it just because of the no parts available, as my luck would be, the parts would be available the same month as I traded cars.
