Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The brake antilock wheel speed sensors on the front wheels locked into skid mode and my car would not go over 4 miles an hour. When I left the dealership and pulled out on to the main road I could not go over 4 miles an hour. I was almost rear ended since the speed limit on the road was 40 MPH. I was told the sensors were bad and needed to be replaced. When I limped the car back into the dealership, they told me that they could not get the car out of that mode until they replaced the sensors. The car only has 7200 miles on it.”
NHTSA complaint #11266985, filed 2019-10, 7,235 miles“Car is a manual transmission. Multiple occurrences- when emergency break is set and the engine is off and in park the car will still roll by itself. Complained to Dodge, Dodge says software issue and it will not happen again. Still happening, I am lucky it did not hit a car but today (2/22/18) it hit a tree- rolled 2 feet back. There is a recall out there for the 2017 model but I really feel multiple years are effected. Actual car is a scat pack. When I looked on line several people out there with a Challenger are having this issue, also with a manual transmission. …”
