On my way to work on 9/28/23 my 2019 dodge challenger hellcat Redeye engine just shut off at 65mph. I was in the left lane by the wall on I45 heading northbound. I instantly had a loss of power steering and braking. The engine just shut off. A check engine light came on and the dash said shift I to park to start. I was successfully able to get across 4 lanes of traffic to stop on the apron between o ram and side of freeway. When I shifted to park and to try to restart it would not start. Had to be towed to dealership where upon inspection they said the motor was locked. When broken down a valve just dropped into the cylinder and jammed into the piston and cylinder wall. Pieces also damaged the head and the supercharger and dealer says starter is fried. Mopar is digging in and acting like this isn-??t an issue but online there are several class actions and forums about defective valve system in these engines. Had I been a novice driver or my wife with children jn the car she would likely not been able to get off to a safe place and stalled dead in the fast lane of a very busy Houston roadway.

P1dab-00, U1412, P0716. Vehicle has shown codes above for 5 plus months. Codes cause vehicle to shift between gear randomly. I have taken vehicle to dealership but probably was not resolved; the dealership stated the problem was the speed sensor, so the switched them out only to find out later it was not the problem. Vehicle is unsafe; on one occasion the vehicle shift from the 8th gear to the 3rd while on the freeway almost causing an accident. Please resolve issue before someone is gravely injured.

My 2019 Dodge Challenger was hesitant to take off even when the accelerator was to the floor. A diagnostic test came back and it was a gear 6 shift incorrect ratio. My vehicle was in motion within busy traffic, almost causing a wreck.

If parked in gear, the vehicle will get stuck in the gear it was left in. It also has problems shifting into lower gears when cold. These issues have been reported in star center case #K38556860 and #S1021000004.

While driving on a city street received a transmission malfunction warning. Vehicle had been driven less than 300 miles. Vehicle stopped in middle of traffic and transmission would not engage. Luckily I was not rear ended. Engaged emergency flasher. After several efforts to start/stop the vehicle transmission did finally engage. This took about 15 minutes. Managed to get vehicle home and took it to dealership next day. It is my understanding that a transmission control module was replaced. Still leary about driving this vehicle.
