What owners say
My car (2006 dodge magnum 5.7 hemi)was running totally fine.... No warnings of any kind. I turned it off to run into the gym and it wouldn't start. A diagnostic test was run and they said the piston blew and it needs a new engine
05 dodge magnum having fuel issues after putting gas in the car. Won't start on first or 3rd time, improper fuel reading at any time while driving sitting still or just running in the yard. The car stalls after filling up mostly. The gas light comes on after filling up, while driving it, sitting still. It no certain time or thing for the light to come on or for the vehicle to stall. A strong odar of gas after you fill up. I never know how much gas is really in the car. I've replaced the fuel pumps on both sides. The check engine light continues to come on before the car starts, while you are driving it, or sitting at a light. I have the light tested and it comes back to the fuel pumps. I've been dealing with this problem for like a month now. The problem continue after replacing both side of the fuel pump.
The ignition has a fault. It will not start. Lights turn on but car doesn't start. New starter installed
I have a 2005 dodge magnum and I went into the cleaners to drop my clothes off. I went in the cleaners and came out and attempted to start my car and it wouldn't start. I thought it was the fuel pump. I had my car towed to the shop and the mechanic stated it was my engine was out. I think its the timing chain. I seen recalls for my engine but they state its for the newer version of the hemi but I think its all the same recall. I get my car maintenance at the dodge dealership and I haven't had any engine problems, no check engine lights , loss af power. There were literally no signs. I had got my oil changed at the dealership within a month of the incident.
Dropped valve seat: after traveling about 800 miles from massachusetts to north carolina, without any indication of a problem, I got off the freeway and I stopped at a mcdonalds to use my cell phone and I turned off the car, after about 5 mins. I attempted to restart the car and it wouldn't start, then as the engaine turned over it began to make clunking sounds. I had the car towed to a near by dodge dealer, where I was told that the engine failed, costing me $8,466.33 to replace the engine because it was out of warranty. The car is well maintained and I have all the service records showing that this failer shouldn't had happened. Chrysler needs to own the flaw in 2005-2007 hemi 5.7 engine and chrysler needs to refund me the $8,465.33 that I had to spend to buy a new engine.
Valve seat in 5.7 hemi dropped and damaged engine while driving, coasted car to a stop and turned off. Tried to start but ran really rough or wouldn't start. No check engine light or warning, vehicle is undrivable. When this happened felt like the car was gonna blow up and engine overheated.
Tl* the contact owns a 2008 dodge magnum. The contact stated that the vehicle would not start. The vehicle was serviced per the federal safety agency campaign number: 14v567000 (electrical system). The remedy failed to repair the vehicle over a year later. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 65,000.
I bought a car and after a month the car was parked after I cut the car off and after I came back it would not start, and the battery was fine every else comes on. I replaced relay switch but still the same problem. Its been a few months and car is still not fixed. The dealer said last week, and said they checked VIN number and say they are doing a recall but waiting for the part did not say what it is. I am still waiting...........
I took my car to prestage dodge cause the car had problem starting so they tested it and said it was the fuel pumps, I asked will that take care of it they said yes. I had to borrow $600.00 to pay for it, 2 days later it started again. Took it back tested it again and they said it was the tipm and that my extended warranty would not cover it. I did some checking on the enter net on the tipm and that has been problems with and deaths. It says typical symptoms of a tipm failure ◦the fuel pump not turning off and burning out ◦the engine stalling while driving ◦the starter cranks but won't start ◦the horn going off at random times ◦power windows not working I paid 600 dollars for problem that was never fixed and find it is a problem and there are lawsuits out there all so from what seen its a recall will you please help me to get this part replace on recall. Thank you
