Like others, I discovered that the interior door panel was separating from the door, right at the window line. The white plastic mold inside the door frame was visible, as was the underside of the vinyl trim. The dealer informed me that my Maximum Care policy (supposed to be bumper-to-bumpoer everything) wouldn't cover it.

Judging by the number of complaints from just a couple of Youtube videos and other such articles, it's a problem that has persisted for many years before and after my 2016 model.

Poor quality adhesive cannot be a justifiable excuse from a manufacturer like Dodge, and certainly not over so many years. This problem should be fairly simple for Dodge to fix via a recall.

I purchased my vehicle in August of 2017, and didn't notice in significant issues until this year. I eventually noticed that my driver side door panel was warping. I assumed it was because my front windows were not tinted and the southern California sun had melted whatever type of glue that had once held it together. I got the windows tinted then realized a few months later that the passenger side door panel was warped as well. Now I find myself inspecting other Chargers on the road to see if they are experiencing the same issues and have notice quite a few have the same thing happening.

My mechanic says there should definitely be a recall for the issue but I have not found one yet. It definitely becoming a significant issue due to the fact that every time someone opens my car door or walks up to the car with the window down my door panels become a topic of conversation. I love my car but I am becoming more frustrated with this issue because I only see it getting worse and becoming a more significant problem that will cause further issues with the functioning of the door.

The doors panels have started warping and I have never, in my 56 years, had any other vehicle that this has happened to. I've talked to others and found that this seems to be a problem with the 7th generation Chargers and it should be considered a defect in workmanship. My husband has purchased Dodge vehicles for most of his life and he is a die hard Dodge man. We would like to find out how to get a resolution to this problem or we may have to rethink the type of vehicles we drive. It's crappy that Chrysler doesn't list this on the recall list and fix them.

Love my 2016 Charger! However, I found out that the quality of workmanship / materials is lousy! Both driver side door panels warped to the point that they were coming out of the window frame. The driver door first, which was covered (almost not) under warranty. The back driver door happened about six months later and is NOT covered under warranty. The Dodge dealer was trying not to warranty the panel, saying that it was due to customer abuse! As it turns out, the webpage was only on the "SUN SIDE" of the car, meaning that it was due to heat through the windows. The passenger side is still perfect, as it does not get sun very often, due to the way it is parked, every day. This is quality and accountability at its worst! These panels should be recalled and fixed for free!

Update from Dec 13, 2024: Passenger side now warped, as well. I suspect the themo plastic's forming temperature is below what the sun can heat it, therefore the plastic does what it is designed to do, Simple logic and based on FACTS!

I bought car at a Chevy place (big mistake when you are buying a Dodge.) Went back to them showed them what was going on. They couldn't help me past warranty. Went to the Dodge place 10 miles away and the only thing they would do was order me new ones and I pay for them. But per them they would be on back order. So this is telling me Dodge is having a problem with them. My driver side is really bad and passenger side is starting to get worse. I feel Dodge should replace these as its a malfunction on their part. My brother who is a body shop guy looked at it and he said there was no way to fix it, needed to be replaced as you couldn't glue it or use tacks. His boss said same thing and they work for a Dodge body shop. So are we supposed to have paid nice money for a car we love and have the doors screwed up & its not due to anything we did?

Bought this Charger off a Chevrolet (dealer), (or should I say "rescued" it ?) after my 2010 Charger lost a misunderstanding with a Yukon, and the rear end was pretty much ripped off (I stopped, she did not). It was a Rottweiler vs Chihuahua type of deal (4 tons vs 2 tons).

The local dealer let me take it home for the weekend, and my wife noticed that the window was "funny shaped".

Finalized the deal on Monday, and then did a really close inspection of the car. She was right ! The passenger side was almost completely separated at the top of the door, and the driver side was trying to catch up. Asked the dealer (remember he was Chevrolet), and he reminded me that it had a 36,000 mile/36 month warranty. I tried to find the original seller, no luck, so, I questioned a Dodge website about the situation. It's a week later and still no word from Dodge.

I love this car, but, I am not going to pay what others were quoted! It is a known problem, and Dodge should make good on it and FIX IT !

Noticed on a Charger owners' website that some one posted about using double sided 3M tape to fix this problem. Haven't tried that, but, it just might work.
