Challenger

  • 31,000 miles
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.

Challenger 6-cyl

  • 34,021 miles
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.

Challenger

  • 300 miles
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.
