“The right rear suspension trailing link that bolts to the sub frame the sub frame mounting bracket sheared off the sub frame. This car has was a rental car before I purchased it. The data recorded was retrieved and nothing shows this was caused by me. The left side has visible wear and stress in the frame, I do not feel safe in this car even if this car is repaired. This caused a minor accident making me spin when it sheared off. It looks as though this was a manufacturing defect with the welding of this part.”

“2014 Dodge charge police car loses all power steering when turned left. We have 4 of these models at our police agency and all 4 are doing the same thing. After speaking with several other police chief's, they all stated that the electrostatic power steering pump was bad and it was a multiple thousand dollar fix for them. Our local Dodge dealer says to fix each fleet car, the cost will be over $2000 per car. With this many issues, there should be an investigation and a recall. Further, when the vehicle is in motion and the steering wheel is turned left, all power steering is lost.”

“While traveling on the freeway (in the lane next to the carpool lane) the car immediately pulled to the extreme left causing me to crash into the center divider. During this time, I had no control over the vehicle. When I was finally able to come to a complete stop, the tire was pulled back next to the front driver door, but still upright and headed forward. You could see where the tire had been spinning against the body of the car. (these are known symptoms of a failed ball joint) unfortunately, the complete tire assembly was ripped off as it was loaded onto the tow truck. …”
