We bought our car new, it has been at the Dodge dealer for repairs for the same things over and over for 6 months total time in shop. 1. the battery saver mode comes on, and then the steering gets hard, the alt. Has been replace, extra wiring added to add more grounds. This affects the way the car drives. When the battery saver mode is on the power steering stops working or works less. The power steering pump and rack and pinion has been replaced twice. This problem happens every day, in town or on the freeway. 2. the radio keeps shorting out, it's been replaced 3 times. This happens daily, it quits, blew out the speakers, navagtion stopped working. 3. the heater keeps getting stuck on either 100% hot or 100% A/C on cold. Settings will not change. Controls have been replaced 3 times, the heat/cold door motor was replace twice. The car has spent 185 days in service this year. When they give the car back it acts up in about 5 mins. The car is going back in for the radio and battery saver mode and steering on Monday. I picked the car up Friday and it failed less than a mile from the dealership.

While driving on interstate at full speed a message appeared on vehicle instrument panel: Battery saver mode. Was concerned as I did not know what the message meant. Was not mentioned in the owner manual. Looked up message on Dodge Charger forum, realized that my vehicle falls within years for recall, with 160 amp alternator, but my particular VIN number is not included in recall nor have I been contacted. Perhaps it, along with others, should be to warn owners of potential issues. There was nothing in the message to indicate that the vehicle needed to be serviced, although to my understanding it can cause loss of power to the entire system.

My Charger is already chipping paint in the driver side door jam. I took it to the Dodge dealer boby shop and asked them to take pictures of it and send it out but the repair man said he was not going to and said that I just dont take care of my car. I offerred to show him the other Chargers on his lot that are slightly used and that have the same problem but he didnt want to.every excuse he has didnt make any sense and when I was done explaining to him that didnt happen he jumped to another theory of his. He did offer to touch it up with paint but I can do that myself. Just regular paint isnt going to fix that problem. The door end needs repainted. Over %90 of the Chargers are doing this. I could send you numerous pictures of different Chargers in my city at dealerships that have this problem or have been touched up by paint.
