I was driving on Interstate 15 North when suddenly my power steering stopped working. I was unable to adequately turn the steering wheel to switch lanes while I was moving 65mph. The light "Service Power Steering" started blinking and I was virtually unable to turn my steering wheel left or right. I was stuck in a life-threatening situation. I immediately had to put my hazard lights on, brake, and fight for my life to try to turn the steering wheel so I could pull over. I almost impacted the barrier and several drivers during this. My mechanic states that my power steering pump failed, without any known cause.

All four axles and spindle nuts are literally decaying and crumbling. Its to the point the guy at the tire shop said its not safe. Being a awd vehicle it puts a lot of strain on the hubs. The car only has 65,000 miles on it.

Began feeling vibrations in the steering when operating at low speeds, parking, etc. Repair shop indicated an issue requiring replacement of the steering gear and power steering pump assembly. Based on other complaints and online research, it seems that this is a pervasive issue, known by Dodge, that can cause steering failure and auto accidents. As such, recall and replacement should be warranted.

2014 Dodge Charger electric power steering pump having issues turning steering wheel which I complain about 6 months ago after purchasing the vehicle for my son it a very serious problem concerning safety. They only recall 2014 Dodge Charger if the the power steering pump was install at specific Maufactured facilities, which is bs. Dodge should be responsible for any faulted power steering pump issue knowingly it exists. My son vehicle has this electric power steering pump issue and the manufacturer and Dodge dealer should replace due to safety issues. Please advise

The power steering pump was replaced because of on and off stiffness while driving. This was very frightening because the steering wheel will not release while turning. The dealership replaced the pump about 3 times and still cannot correct the problem.

My steering wheel when turning left or right is becoming difficult to turn and makes squealing noise when turned. When brought to the dealership it was told to me that nothing was coming up wrong with the steering on the cpu. I was told I would have to wait until the steering pump goes to make any fixes. After research many of other 2014 Dodge Charger users have had issues with their steering wheel completely locking or losing any control of the steering while driving at high speeds.

Power steering system failure.

My steering wheel has locked up on me while I'm driving at least 10 times if not more since I purchased my 2014 Dodge Charger in 2015. All these incidents where at different time periods and at different speeds ranging from 0 to 60 mph. The steering wheel would stay locked for a couple of minutes. Each time that it has happened, I've been close to having an accident either hitting someone else or running off the road. I would try to turn the vehicle off and on to see if it would loosen back up. Sometimes it would work, other times it wouldn't. I've taken the vehicle to multiple mechanics and they all have said it might have something to so with the power steering since the vehicle is electric. I've then taken it to the Dodge dealership to get it diagnosed and they said nothing comes up on their tests that shows steering wheel defects. I've also contacted the actual Dodge manufacturer but they weren't of any help either unless a recall pops up. I have no evidence to show the problem other than horrible past experiences I've had while driving.

I was driving down the city street and as I went to turn the corner the steering wheel was almost impossible to turn. It took all my strength and careful braking not to hit the car in the oncoming lane of traffic. I immediately took to a certified mechanic and they tell me the power steering pump is out. After doing a quick search online I find that this is a fairly common issue. It is so common of an issue that Dodge is in short supply of new power steering pumps with only like 3 in the state of Florida at the time of this writing.

Driving down the road at 58 mph and power steering went complety out! no warning at all! dash lights went crazy. Warning lights: Service shifter, service power steering, auto park disabled, check engine, then dash lights started blacking completely out. Very dangerous! I took to my mechanic and he says that the power steering pump has been fired. After reading the altenator recall, thia explained everything that happened! all recalls have been fixed on this vehicle. After contacting local dealerships I learned that there are 89 people just in my area needing this same pump and it is on back order. This tells me that there is a huge problem. This is extremely dangerous! now $1800 to fix an issue that never should have happened with altenator recall completed. I now have a car that I am still paying for, cant drive, cant afford to fix, and wont sell to someone else knowing how dangerous this is. Please investigate this issue. I cant imagine that with all of the complaints I have seen that this is not an all consuming issue and puts many lives at risk

Backing out of parking place power steering lights lit up on dash, car would not move. Steering completely failed, had I been on the road would have caused a terrible crash. Had to have the vehicle towed.

- Pawleys Island, SC, USA

All dash indicators started flashing and there was a message stating not to put the car in park or it will not go back into a gear. Service power steering light came on and power steering went completely out, almost causing an accident. If there were traffic, it would have. Parked car, started it a few hours later and everything seemed fine. Driving on residential street and power steering went out suddenly again. Service power steering message has remained and the power steering no longer works at all. This is a safety issue! I am thankful my 17 year old daughter was not driving any of the times it happened!
