Interior door panels are letting loose and detaching from frame. Seems seems to be rather unsafe with the side airbags and all. Many forums online from Dodge Charger owners with same issue on all (4) doors. We need help getting Dodge to recall this issue and help make it right. We are getting quotes of up to $3,500 to complete the repair and replace interior door panels.
The contact owned a 2016 Dodge Charger. The contact stated that while driving approximately 10 - 15 MPH, another vehicle suddenly crashed into his vehicle from the rear driver's side at approximately 55 MPH. The contact stated that the driver-??s side A-pillar and driver-??s side rear B-pillar were severely crushed, but no air bags deployed. A police report was made. The vehicle was towed from the scene and deemed a total loss. The contact suffered a concussion, bruising along the left side of his body, memory loss, and a broken collar bone. The contact was not aware of anyone else had sustained any injuries. The contact went to the hospital to seek medical attention. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 110,000.
Chrysler/|Dodge 300's/Charger have a known issue with door panel warping because of material or design defect. A judged rule 08/26/21 that there is an expressed warranty and that they should be repaired outside of the manufacture's warranty, which is when the defect shows up. I have tried both the dealership and customer care Auburn Hills, Michigan to no avail. I am stuck with making the very costly repair myself on a vehicle that I can't sell for what should be its value without the defect showing. I am a disable veteran and a senior so neither of those prospect are appealing. What can I do to get the dealer to fix the defect in light of the judge's ruling or other consumer protection laws? I need to get a replacement vehicle and can't get a reasonable return on this investment with the defect. Please help me.
The door panels on both drivers door and front passenger door have completely separated from the door exposing airbags and electrical components for windows and locks.

The vehicle is indicating that the airbag system needs to be serviced. The car is 3 years old with 34K miles. There are recalls on the 2011-2015 Dodge Chargers for the airbag system and the dealership (stealership) is telling me that they the repair is not covered.
When I recently tried to close my sun roof on my 2016 Dodge Charger rally, I wasnt able to do so. The car was on, I even called and did the system reboot with a rep but that didnt help, I tried turning the car off and back on, nothing worked. Also, the black material has come undone on both the passenger and driver door which is leaving the indoor panel exposed and not sealing the windows on the inside of the car. The black material in the middle where the airbags are is also coming undone. Currently waiting on a call back from the dealership because all of this just happened.
