I purchased 2016 dodge charger one month ago from california auto direct in montclair. While signing the paperwork, we questioned a $1,000 dealer charge which they explained was for a thorough inspection before putting their car on the lot to sell (all lies). Since I purchased the car on 3/7/20, the car has stalled on me while driving 3 times. I took the car to a "dodge" dealer and they fixed a recall, oil leak and replaced a missing caliper, old battery. After completing all the repairs, the car stalled on me again. Each time the steering and brakes locked up. The dealership found no codes as to why the car just stops while driving. This car is a safety hazard. I contacted dodge.com online chat and they told me to let the dealer try and work on it and use their resources. Unfortunately, they can't find anything. I read about recalls on other dodge chargers and challengers that had similar problems, unfortunately not m year... 2016.

Vehicle has been in multiple times for service on powertrain, transmission downshifts hard when slowing down when cruising at 40+, (vehicle will jerk hard at 10 MPH and bang around 10 MPH) serv awd system periodically comes on and car will loose power without warning and will need to be shut off and turned back on to beable to drive again and awd light will no longer be on. This has happend twice on city streets and once on the highway at highway speeds .also the car has multiple times in the past owen put into park and will roll away and say service transmission set parking brake and if you don't set parking brake and take your foot off the brake the car will stall, dealer replaced transmission manual service switch and the car has done it 2 times since. The vehicle has been to the dealer multiple times with no 'fix' in sight dodge customer care has been notified of the issue and there is a case open, however the vehicle still has serious safety powertrain issues with no remedy in sight, dealer says car bangs because the transmission is 'stuck in a sweet spot' but they don't have an answer for the service awd light

After filling my charger up with premium fuel, it immediately stalls without warning while I am driving, I lose the power steering and I am unable restart it right away. It happens every time I fill up, and I have paid over $500 dollars to the dealership to trouble shoot it, and they do not have a clue. Very dangerous feeling. Someone will be killed from this issue, it comes at varying times.

After filling up the gas tank, the vehicle will stall for no apparent reason. It will restart but immediately stall again causing me to restart it again. It will do so 5 to 10 times before running normally again. It doesn't seem to matter at what speed but mostly at slower speeds. I have been caught in lanes on the freeway and it could lead to a very dangerous situation especially here in california. This car has been babied and has less than 25,000 miles on it.
