The center support carrier bearing for the driveshaft has failed, causing the driveshaft to drop, rub the heat shield causing a bad noise, the rear end is swaying, and there are mobility issues. I know of other people that have the same problem. You cannot replace the center bearing. You have to purchase the WHOLE driveshaft/driveline, which becomes an even bigger problem when they are on NATIONAL BACKORDER! My challenger has less than 98,000 miles. I have no other vehicle. This is a widespread problem. The whole part costs over $1100.

I purchased a 2015 Challenger, upon driving the vehicle home noticed the axles making a noise. A week later the noise becomes worse I alert the dealership and bring the car in. They tell me that it's covered under warranty and they promise that when I finalize financing the will fix it. Upon finalizing financing the car fails inspection and the warranty is removed due to the preexisting issues with the car. Thus resulting repair cost coming out my pocket for a car I hadn't had a week. Next I run into a issue the with engine. I take it to get a diagnostic and the technician shows me the history of the car stating that it had a replacement engine installed in the past. The dealer never mentioned the repairs to me before finalizing the deal once so ever. Now I brought it to their attention and they're telling me that I can trade it in but there's nothing they can do. The dealership is rick hendricks Chevrolet in duluth Georgia, 3277 satellite blvd. The dealership goes up and beyond to avoid me, even while the car was in their possession for repairs for weeks. They never fixed anything in the car. I have video proof of them messing up the car and just leaving it for me to deal with. I also have voice recorded conversations with sales associate managers at the dealership who lied to me and my father in our faces about certain information regarding the deal.

The right shifter paddle on the steering wheel will intermittently downshift several gears instead of upshifting when the paddle is pressed. The system will also downshift unexpectedly when the right paddle shifter is held down to change over to the automatic drive system. This has been occurring since I started using the paddle shifters around 30,000 miles on the vehicle. The unexpected downshifting consistently slams the vehicle to almost a stop, abruptly forcing any occupants in the vehicle into the seatbelts. There have been many occasions where vehicles have almost hit my vehicle because the car shifts down several gears at once and slows suddenly without brake lights. The vehicle has also slid in wet conditions when it has occurred. Due to safety concerns, I have not been able to operate the paddle shifters at high speed in fear of my own safety and the safety of others. If the vehicle was to downshift several gears at speed in wet conditions, the vehicle would likely slide out of control. Additionally, the hard shifting is likely causing premature wear and tear on the transmission, drive components and tires. The vehicle has now been in the shop for this issue 8 times with no permanent fix. There are many articles and forum reports addressing this issue with Dodge Challenger vehicles, but Dodge refuses to acknowledge the forums and claims they only address issues separately with each customer. This issue has left me without my vehicle for months at a time and is a constant safety hazard if the paddle shifters are operated. This issue is a major safety hazard to the occupants and other drivers since downshifting 2-3 gears at once can be the same as slamming on the brakes, especially in wet conditions. Here is an article that pertains to this issue: Https://www.hotcars.com/charger-Challenger-defect-paddle-shifters/ thanks for your help!

My cars temperature gauge flickers up and down while driving. I took it in once for repair but it still continues doing this. The car does this whenever the engine is on whether it's running or stationary. Also the right headlight has electric problems. It turns off and on whenever it wants to. But it stays off more than it stays on.

After driving the car for several miles, my wife pulled into a shopping center from the right lane of traffic when the car's transmission seemed to just shut off. The dash display informed her to put the shift lever into park and then select the disire gear. Luckly there were no cars directly behind her when the car came to a stop. Shei selected 'park' and then 'drive' which seemed to resolve the issue after this unwarrented and scarry insident. The car has 13816 miles and is still under warenty. She has made a dealer appointment, but was told they have no prior knowledge of such events making it unclear if the dealer will be able to resolve such incident.

I was traveling to work on a busy, 3-lane road. I was in the far-right lane sitting at a red light, waiting to continue straight. When the light turned green, my car just shut off and the display informed me to put my car in P (park) and then back into the desired gear. I put my flashers on and coasted into the closest parking lot of the right side of the road, where I turned my car off and then started it back up again. After restarting the car, there seemed to be no further problems. This was an extremely scary situation for me and I was thankful to be in the far right lane when it happened, thankful I was at a complete stop when it happened, and thankful nobody was injured. This is a serious problem that Dodge needs to address and get fixed. A recall needs to be placed for the safety of those on the roads.

Issue #1 vehicle loses all power while stationary on a city street with no indication or warning. This has happened twice while waiting to enter the intersection. The car turns off completely and says to place car in park. Issue #2 this issue always occurs while accelerating from a stationary state; vehicle jumps with little pressure on gas, then power dips down, then back up over and over. The car resembles a bucking rodeo horse when this happens. It has happened several times while making a left hand turn across oncoming traffic and is a safety issue in that a power dip in the middle of an intersection inhibits the cars ability to clear an intersection safely.

Car makes clunk noise when the 8 speed automatic gears down or up. I taken it to the dealership twice and they can't determine what is wrong. I'm afraid that warranty will run out before anything is done by Fiat.Chrysler.

When driving and trying to accelerate the car does not go at all. It's like it's the gear is stuck. Also when sitting at a red light the car RPM is accelerating by itself.the car has jumped from the 1st gear to 4th gear without little acceleration.car has been taking numerous times to dealership since purchased it in 2-2015 the only thing the dealership will do it relearn on the transmission and it works fine for month and then I'm back again.

The dealership has just made sure the radio was update to the latest version and the problem still happens. The door handle have been replaced numerous times due to an electrical issue.

The vehicle looses all acceleration when coming from a complete stop. The D on the gearshift flashes red and digital readout on the dashboard instructs driver to come to a complete stop and place vehicle in park and then shift to drive. This means that while in the middle of traffic or an intersection you must come to a complete stop and place the vehicle in park and then shift to drive. I have provided Dodge with two videos of this happening and they still cannot fix the vehicle.

The transmission has very harsh downshifts when lightly braking or coasting to a stop. The transmission stays engaged and bogs down the car, then frees up suddenly, causing the vehicle to lunge forward. There is an audible clunk from the rear end when this happens. On several occasions it's almost led to fender benders with the cars in front of me.
