“I have a 2005 Magnum sxt, the car has pulled to the right since day one, it has been aligned 2 times now. The 2 front tires are wearing badly on the outside, the driver side is worse than the passenger side. I have requested that chrysler replace the tires at this time I have not heard an answer on that. I have been told that the wear on the tires is not due to the car pulling to the right that it is a wear problem (I guess the way I drive) I don't agree!! My car has also stalled 3 times while going in reverse. …”

NHTSA complaint #10262566, filed 2009-03, 80,000 miles“Magnum rt, has veered to the right since purchased in august 2004. Back rear light full of condensation, appeared to be a leak. Dealer ordered a part, and I'm still awaiting notification, a month later. Sun roof was uneven, concerned it may result in future leaks. Was told this was not abnormal, and shouldn't be a problem. Rear driver side window did not work at times. Works for the dealer.”
