My vehicle randomly swerves back and forth when driving. It is very scary and could easily cause an accident and take my life. I-??ve taken it to vigo dodge and had 3 different mechanics inspect my car over 5 hours and although they each drove my car and experienced what I-??m referring to, they didn-??t know what the problem is. I was told to just drive it til it got worse and then maybe they could find the problem. I-??m scared to drive my car over 30 mph cause the random swerve could make me lose control or even swerve into oncoming traffic. I desperately need help and don-??t know what to do.

I just wrote in about the clicking sound from dash once it reach about 56,000 miles. Sorry, but I forgot to mention. I had the slightest clue what the sound was, or where it was coming from, so of course I got on youtube to find a solution to the problem just to make sure it was not just me, and I was very greatly appalled to the number of thousands of people that are owners of Challengers that had or has the same issue and no one can figure what causes this problem. It happens without warning and it's highly unsafe. The clicking sound even occurs while driving. I didn't know rather the car was about to explode or what, because the clicking sound is so intense. I pop my trunk and there's clicking. I unlock my doors and there's clicking. On Sept. 21, 2018 when the sound began, out the blue there was a clicking sound so loud, I thought the key was going to fall out the ignition while I was driving with my child in the back seat, and this has not only happened to me, but thousands other. This is highly dangerous while driving. Please find an answer to this problem. Please and thank you.

I'm a owner of a 2011 Dodge Challenger. I've noticed not only on my car, but every Dodge Challenger reached a certain amount of miles, mines has 57,000 miles and there's clicking sound from the dash which A/C and heat to stop work. This problem is very common for the Dodge Challenger, and should have a recall on it, because its a constant problem with the Challenger, and the problem tends to occur after a certain mileage. This is something I deeply feel that needs a recall. Please and thank you

160/180 amp alternators recall T36 has been out for 6 months and there is still no update from fca or dealers on when parts will arrive. What is the next step for something that can result in my car and 1.3 million others from possibly catching fire or losing power as the recall says. I'm just looking for an update. Mahalo

Car stalls right after initial starting attempt 50% of time. Must cycle the starting button three times to get the car to start. Occurs randomly hot or cold. No engine codes occur. Dealer has no idea what the problem is but suggests that it might be the key fobs or something called a "win" module. The problem began right after an alternator failure. I am not willing to invest money in repairing this issue unless there is a clear manufacturer strategy to fixing the problem.
