“When car is in reverse, backup camera is unavailable jeopardizing safety around. During acceleration of car when driving, the speedometer on dash shows different than the digital speedometer. I.e if I am going 40 the digital shows 60+ (varies). Passenger door lock has difficulty clicking lock/unlock and no child lock is on- will be safety concern if exiting is needed of vehicle. All issues above happen almost every time.”

NHTSA complaint #11328031, filed 2020-06, 3,000 miles

“Was getting on freeway and hit the gas to accelerate and get ahead of the traffic. The Challenger would not accelerate fast (has a hemi) and car almost flew into me. Started testing the vehicle and it just wouldn't accelerate fast, it was stall slowly and pickup speed over 30 seconds or so. I brought it in to one shop and they said its probably a software update and to take it to Dodge and it should be free. …”
