There is a recall K#39 for 2005-2007 Dodge Chargers for when the car will not leave the parked position. Even though this is what is going on with my car the dealership is saying my car is not covered in this recall. My main concern is they are unable to provide me with the 2005 and 2006 dates of cars that were affected!. I want clarification of why my car is not covered when it fits every description in the recall. They had me tow my car to the dealership and now saying I have to pay for it to be fixed.

Power shuts off randomly, stalling, acceleration lost, but will fire right back up if you flip the key around or put in neutral. Very unsafe if traffic coming and it shuts right down. Also while in park it's shuts off

-the sunroof will not always close all the way. It will reopen itself upon exiting -my car stalls often whenever I accelerate, it seems the gas has to "catch up" this uncomfortable/unsafe.) home. Also, it is embarrassing for my car to 'conk out'. - I am currently broken down due to the fuel pumps' incorrect assertions of gas. Disappointed andneed assistance to repair said issues. Thank you

On my 2006 Dodge Charger, an unprecedented mechanical problem happened with the ignition. It is unprecedented as it worked perfectly prior to the incident. The ignition will only turn from 'off' to 'A/C' and finally to 'on' but it will not turn any further to 'start'. this means the engine can not be started. With further research, it becomes apparent that same generation Chargers and magnums are affected by the same problem, with owners reporting problems with the actuator pin. My car is stationary and as of late can't move with an outside source.

Why would Dodge be allowed to manufacture a vehicle without a cabin air filtration system built in? this should be a recall as insects, debris, exhaust, pollen and other allergens constantly enter vehicles without this critical health safety component

Car loses power and stalls/shuts off while idling at stops, seems to happen more often after filling up. Has happened at speeds as high as 70 mph, however when happening at high speeds the car restarts on its own. When it cuts off after idling you must manually restart vehicle.

Door locks lock and unlock automatically when fob is in range. Continuously chirping. When key inserted on driver side ( only door site to insert key) the door locks and unlocks continuously while chirping. ( battery to fob new).extremely sensitive to slightest touch or hover; door locks have a mind of their own( up and down repetively).once unlocked, alarm goes off until key is inserted into ignition to silence. May take 3-4 minutes to enter car. Pose danger at night or during inclement weather. Vehicle performed the above stationary but have been locked out while car was running after key inserted; door closed manually after unlocked and car locked by itself when door closed instantly. Required a lock smith to open.
