The shifter stuck in park and we had to take the car to the dealership where the shifter assembly had to be replaced. Upon are arrival the technician stated that there were 3 other Dodge auto's were there for the same reason. Our neighbor has a Chrysler sebring which had to have the same repair just last year. As the Chrysler had a recall on it and we feel that the Dodge should also have a recall. Our car is not 5 years old and according to the dealership should not have had this type of repair at this time.
Gear shift stuck in "park". there was a recall for some Chargers for this problem but not mine. Obviously, the same part is defective on mine as the part in the vehicles involved in the recall.
I have taken my car to the dealership 5 times to have issues fixed. Each time I got the car back, it was worse. I had 13 issues originally with the car. I ended up suing, and got a very small settlement- Dodge refused to cooperate. I still have each and every problem, and do not know what else to do. My car dies while in reverse, the brakes malfunction constantly, the window panel remains broken due to their inept work, the radio cuts off, the dash lights die @ night, etc. I would truly appreciate it if someone could actually help me. I do not know what else to do. I love my car dearly, but something needs to be done. The date I put as date of incident is when this all started.
I have a 2006 Dodge Charger and noticed on the recall stats I get sent on the E-mail that several others have had trouble with their Chargers hesitating or stalling on take off. I have had the hesitation every since I bought the car in March of 2006. I had it into the shop once in midland, Texas where I bought the car right after I bought it and they told me that it was how that particular car did and it was nothing to worry about. Seems like it may be a problem after all. I have right at 30,000 miles on the car now. It has continued to happen almost every time I accelerate. Sometimes it is worse than others.
Both cars I got from the dealer broke down and had to be towed back to dealership. I told them I don't want to do business with them anymore. They never contacted the bank that the deal was no longer in affect and they needed to return the money. Now my bank has me and the owner of the first car that was sold to someone else. I called the dmv and was told its true the first car belongs to someone else. I need help this is fraud.

After purchasing my 2006 Dodge Charger in April of 2006 I immediately had a problem with a squeaking from the front brakes. When taking the car in for service I was repeatedly told it was brake dust and it would go away when washing. The noise has never gone away and has continued to get worse now that I have over 20,000 miles on them.
