This problem first appeared on 2/1/23. After driving the vehicle and i park, when i place the car shifter in park and press the push to start button to turn off the car, the car shuts off but the start button stays in ACC mode and will not go to OFF mode option no matter how many times you press it. The vehicle will go from ACC then to Start only. The warning lights display on the dash saying, Service Shifter, Vehicle not in park and traction light appears then shows Service Airbag. The vehicle is in park but the push button will not allow it to go into OFF mode. it will stay on ACC. The only two options are ACC and Start. The vehicle believes the car is not in park but it is. No matter what you do it will not go into OFF mode. The only way to temporarily put it in OFF is to disconnect the battery. When you start the car again, it will turn on but when it's time to turn the vehicle off it will repeat the same problem and stay in ACC and will not allow it to be pushed into OFF mode This has not been inspected by the manufacturer, dealer or insurance company yet. In my research of the problem other Dodge Charges have the same issue. Safety issue is not being able to turn the car off completely. unknown of other safety risks

The center Carrier support bearing is defective. As I look online on how to repair it I see NUMEROUS occasions of this happening in similar cars as mine. This part allows the drive shaft to not move up and down. When the center support bearing is defective and pops out of place it allows the drive shaft to move up and down. Which ruins other parts of the drive shaft and transfer cases. Dodge needs to be held responsible for their faulty part.

I had the front shaft come out and broke the transfer case and Differential took it to two different dealers both told me I was off reading in it but it happened leaving a stop light on my way to work at 630 am.

1/7/16 Unknown vehicle vibration reported to Dodge dealership soon after purchase, and several times thereafter. Multiple test drives/inspections performed at three separate Dodge dealerships. 7668 Miles On Vehicle 5/2/17 Multi-point inspection sheet completed. Dashcam video shows technician did not complete inspection as indicated. Started direct line of communication with FCA to find new dealership for vibration and inspection issue's. 7/26/18 Second dealership verifies a vibration at low speed, BUT co-owner of dealership caught on dashcam driving in extreme excess of the posted speed limit on country roads. 8/10/18 Third dealership VERIFIED CUSTOMER COMPLAINT and scheduled in depth inspection in four weeks later. Wrote DID NOT LIFT on final inspection sheet and blamed exhaust drone for kicking off MDS System. 4/22/2019 Vehicle towed to original dealership for leaking water pump with loose pulley. Multi-point vehicle inspection sheet completed. Performed? *Inspection sheets have a section under Vehicle Checkup Plus to inspect either u-joints/driveshafts. Depending on dealership. 8/24/2021 Fourth shop, not affiliated with FCA, allowed me to inspect driveshaft/u-joints and the CLUNK noise heard when driving in reverse was the driveshaft because the Driveshaft Center Support Bearing had failed. The car was purchased August of 2015 and now has approximately 63,6xx miles on it. The bearing began to fail at 7,668 miles. If I didn't drive as defensively as I do, the driveshaft would have been in the cabin by 25,000 miles. There are entire forums dedicated to the early failure of this part. **Vehicle feels shaky and unstable

At about 30 mph I began hearing a clicking noise coming from the underneath of the car. No sensor/warning lights on, car was placed on a computer and nothing showed wrong. The noise continued to get louder and then there was a vibration from the front end. Upon further investigation it appears the carrier bearing is out but you should e to replace the entire drive shaft, which is 700+ dollars and most places are 8-12 weeks out for delivery. It-€™s unsafe to drive the car, which is my only means of transportation to and from work, which also pays the payment.

The dealer confirmed the failure was the same and informed the contact that per the manufacturer, he was responsible for the repair and would be reimbursed if a recall was initiated that included the Vin. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 94,000.

I have taken my car to a repair shop because of a sound the car made when driving, he said it is the driveline bearing. These are non-repairable so you need to have the entire drive shaft replaced. When calling for the part it is backordered everywhere because it seems to be a consistent problem and they are a lot of people having the same problem. If this is a design problem and they must know because it is backordered everywhere why is there not a recall to fix it.

I took my car to performance Dodge at 95 loop road, centerville, Ohio 45459 on 8/30/19 to get my recalls fixed. I picked up my car after they told me repairs were completed. I have the receipt from this car dealership that says they performed these recalls (recall U60 and recall V01). I'm not able to upload my receipt but I can fax it over to you if you need to review. So I thought my recalls had been fixed but I kept receiving phone calls and letters that I still had recalls on my vehicle that needed fixed. So I checked my VIN # on this website and it still shows that I have these open recalls on my Dodge Charger. Can this please be investigated" can't the dealership get in trouble for saying they fixed the problem, if they truly didn't" my name is [xxx] and my address is [xxx]. my phone # is [xxx] and my husband [xxx]. I look forward to hearing from someone regarding this issue. Thank you! information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I started a uconnect system update while I was still parked. The disclaimer said nothing about to not update while driving. I started the update and started driving (my commute is about 25 minutes). It took about 10-15 minutes to download the update. Once it downloaded, the system reset. At this time I was in cruise control on a freeway that was ending, so I turned off my cruise control and then my car jolted forwarded as if it were in a very low gear and almost caused me to crash. I then was stuck in 1st gear while the system was rebooting and couldn't automatically or manually shift past 1st gear leaving me stuck on the side of the road. Then a screen popped up saying there was 50 minutes left on the update. I was stuck on the side of the road until the update finished. After that, my gears were shifting normally. During this time, I called Dodge and opened a case letting them know what happened. The picture I provided was a picture after I was already stopped on the side of the road. Updated 10/29/18

While cruising in 'drive' if the operator puts the shifter in 'neutral' in order to coast and then the vehicle is brought to a complete stop, the vehicle unexpectedly becomes immobilized when put back into 'drive'. the dash then notifies the driver to apply the brake and cycle the shifter back into 'park' and then back to 'drive' in order to move the vehicle. Now my concern here is that if a driver were to find themselves in an emergency situation (like on railroad tracks with a train approaching) they may panic and not be able to complete this process fast enough in order to move the vehicle to safety.

The vehicle is a marked police vehicle that was left running at the scene of an investigation. Dashboard camera video shows that approximately 14 minutes after it was parked the transmission slipped into reverse and drove off, down an embankment and into a tree. An investigation was conducted by fca and in a letter by Mr. Kon of special investigations it was noted that the "inspection revealed that there was no evidence of a malfunction....". this was written despite the fact the situation was replicated by the investigator in the presence of one of our city mechanics. Furthermore, Mr. Kon quoted the owners manual and stated "...you should never exit a vehicle while the engine is running" which is not at all practical for a police vehicle.

While slowing down from about 40mph to about 20mph to make right hand turns, engine shifts very roughly from 3rd to 2nd to 1st and after completing the right turn remains stuck in low gear and does not shift as accelerator is pressed. Almost stalls, but after a few seconds, the normal shift pattern resumes. This has happened intermittently a few other times, such as approaching a red to green traffic signal. When approaching red light, I decelerate to stop but don't make complete stop as light changes to green, car downshifts into 1st gear but wont upshift smoothly into 2nd/3rd gear when re-accelerating the vehicle.
