“I went to my local Dodge dealership about my 2016 Charger having it's windshield at 3 years old delaminating all around it. I then contacted cunsumer complaints through Dodge w6 said I own this 100 percent. Who has a windshield do this at 3 years old? Defect? I say yes!

Unable to get to it, like the millions of sparkles are inside the glass. Unable to make out anything in front of the car except big shapes (car, truck, etc). This happens whenever the sun is in front of you, morning and evening commute is when it happens to me every day. The car can be in motion or sitting still, wherever you are.”
NHTSA complaint #10917746, filed 2016-10, 100 miles“Headlamps are not working therefore causing a safety issue when driving at night.

On March 18, 2022 I took it back to Dodge dealership and because it was working that day they just said to bring it when it was not working?
