  Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) I have two children and the vehicle has left me stranded about a dozen times because it will not even start. Upon research, this faulty part can also cause the vehicle to just stall at highway speeds. I have taken it to a 3rd-party mechanic, a Dodge dealership, contacted my 3rd-party warranty company, and called Chrysler Customer Care. Nobody can source the part needed because it is no longer manufactured. Stellantis' recommendation was to trade it in and pawn it off on someone else. It has popped about 10-15 CEL's while just driving down the road. Nobody can source the part and rebuilders will not touch it. No remediation or offer to make this right by Stellantis.

  The manufacturer's label under the hood states only add 134y refrigerant to the cooling system but the service port is not the correct size. I bought an adapter and added the 134a refrigerant and my cars cooling system isn't working correctly and my car ran hot as well as I had to replace a temperature sensor. After doing research others have had this issue because the system is made for r1234yf refrigerant.

  : The vehicle’s steering wheel intermittently hardens or "locks" while in motion, making it extremely difficult to maneuver and creating a severe safety hazard. This issue remains unresolved despite two separate professional repair attempts. The first attempt cost $600.00, and the second attempt at a different facility cost $1,500.00. Despite a total expenditure of $2,100.00, the steering failure persists. The defect appears to be a systemic failure within the Electric Power Steering (EPS) or associated control modules/wiring that is not being corrected by standard repair procedures. The vehicle remains dangerous to operate.

  Subject VIN sits in database as completed for Takata Airbag replacement completion during previous Passenger Air Bag NHTSA Recall; however, recent "Do Not Drive" warnings that include this year model now state that Driver Side Airbag has also been determined to now need replacement. Having been on the telephone for numerous telephone calls over this past week with Dodge's Takata Airbag Team, Dodger Service Departments, and NHTSA to inquire about what next actions I should take with the well-advertised "Do Not Drive" warning through a variety of media channels to include my 2014 Dodge Challenger have been frustrating at best. The ineptitude and inaction to move on this recall, reclassify vehicles as having an outstanding recall if both Passenger Airbags Assemblies (Driver- and Passenger- sides) have not been replaced. A requirement for the manufacturer (in this case, Dodge) to streamline complimentary towing of the unsafe vehicle to a dealership with a service department (while also ensuring respective Airbag assemblies are in repair parts inventory with technicians trained to conduct replacement maintenance correctly), and afford a complimentary temporary vehicle to use during day-to-day living until the reparations are executed to render the vehicle safe again and that vehicle is returned to the owner. The ineptitude to date by manufacturer (Dodge) and NHTSA to this juncture is unfathomable. All parties need recalibration and competency should be paramount in this safety crisis of the Takata Airbag debacle. Wake up . . . . immediately, if not sooner and get it all in one sock folks! The vehicle was taken to Southpoint Dodge in Austin, Texas under recall in March 2019 and had the Passenger Side Airbag replaced under the recall at that time; however, the Driver Side Airbag was not of concern when that recall was executed and the Driver Side Airbag is still stock from the manufacturing assembly line when the vehicle first became available for sale in late 2013.

  On August 7, 2025, at approximately 11:30 PM, my 2014 Dodge Challenger caught fire in the trunk area where the battery is located. I had just parked at my location and was about to get out of the car when I noticed a strong burning smell and smoke coming from the rear. Flames were visible inside the trunk. The fire damaged the trunk interior, wiring, and surrounding components, but the battery still functioned afterward. There were no warning lights or prior issues before the incident. This poses a serious safety hazard and could have caused injury or further damage if it had occurred while driving.

  The ABS system has failed on my 2014 Dodge Challenger SXT and has caused major electrical issues within the vehicle. The ABS part/computer module (part number 68210118AB) has been on back order for months with no estimate of when the part will be available from a Dodge/Chrysler/Ram/Jeep dealership. I have been without my vehicle for 4 months because nobody has this part available. This is a major issue affecting many vehicles under Dodge/Chrysler/Ram/Jeep. My safety was at risk because while I was driving the vehicle, every single light on my dashboard appeared and my brakes stopped working. Thankfully I was leaving my neighborhood and was only going 15MPH. The key fob is not detectable, the windows will not roll up, and the vehicle cannot hold a charge while in drive. There was an ABS warning lamp on prior to this all happening.

  I bought this vehicle after only having 28,000 miles on it required the water pump to be replaced. That should not be the case. The vehicle started running hot again after having the original water pump replaced about a year ago. At this point I had only put an additional 12,000 miles on the vehicle. Now the company that put the water pump on is saying I need a new engine on a vehicle that only has 40,000 miles on it. This should not be the case and I'd like the NHTSA look into this as a faulty engine from the manufacturer.

  On 2/25/23 we started noticing the smell of gasoline around the 2014 dodge challenger, so we stated looking around the gas cap and down around the gas tank and noticed a small few drops of gasoline on the ground near the gas tank. But Didn't notice exactly where the leak was coming from the tank or around the tank. So keep an eye out over the next week then we started noticing a bigger drip mark. We are not driving the vehicle due to leak from gas tank for fear of explosion and fire. We sent the car to our mechanics to check it out . He said the tank was leaking due to being warped, this was not the first time he had seen this problem in the 2014 dodge challengers. He said we will need to replace the tank. We are very concerned with this problem, we enjoy our dodge and are considering buy a new one when the time comes, but will have to reconsider with this type of problem looming. So we parked the car outside and away from the house for fear of fire danger.

  I was entering onto the highway and accelerating up to speed. When the car suddenly jerked multiple times, the vehicle did not accelerate, but the RPMs redlined. I then lost power while entering the highway. The vehicle would not restart, so I pulled onto the shoulder of the interstate. Almost being hit multiple times by other motor vehicles. I attempted to restart the car without any success. The vehicle was towed home to my residency, until I could have it towed to a mechanics shop for further diagnoise. The vehicle has not restarted in over 3 weeks now.

Yes my safety is at risk due to the fact the car can run hot at any given time. Yes the car has been inspected and no there hasn't been any warning lights. When I took the car in for another problem, the tech noticed that the part was cracked and needs replacing. I am not sure why Chrysler would make a plastic part this close to an engine and now it is causing problems for customers. The part is currently on backorder because so many have failed.

  Driving car and the gas pedal quit working and coasted in gas station parking lot. Waited for a family member, after 15 minutes I drove a 1/2 mile to work. Upon parking, I reversed to align better, and the throttle went out again along with horn going off and the windows going up and down. In this time all lights were flashing on dash. It was taken to mechanic, who worked for dodge for 14 years and he said this IS a problem with many chysler, dodge, and jeep vehicles. He IS replacing the lipm to correct the problem. I believe this has been recalled in many other mopar vehicles and IS unacceptable as this IS my teenage's car. I pos to the ceo of dodge to put his child behind the wheel of this car. What if this tipm burns/melts the board again? No warning, my child was on way to work on a busy road, speed limit 55mph and it a gas station was not to her right, who knows what the outcome could have been the car would not go and there was no shoulder either. You can do the speculation. I have not received invoice yet but the price for tow and fix IS $751.00.

• Desiccated Air Bag Inflator Rupture

  EA21002Opened Sep 17, 2021Open
  From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L.

  From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 Blomquist Report at www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.gov/files/documents/expert_report-hrblomquist.pdf.Consequently, all frontal inflators using propellant 2004 that do not contain a "desiccant" (a substance that traps and holds moisture) in US vehicles are under recall. These "non-desiccated" inflators either have been or are required to be replaced.In some cases, the remedy part for these recalled inflators was, or will be, an inflator using either propellant 2004 or 2004L that does contain a desiccant. None of these "desiccated" remedy parts (which were installed in older model year vehicles) are currently under recall for a degradation concern. Certain subsets of desiccated PSAN inflators using propellant 2004 for use as original equipment, however, have been recalled for a degradation concern. All Takata inflators produced with propellant 2004L contain desiccant, and none of these desiccated inflators using propellant 2004L are under recall for a degradation concern. There have been no reported field ruptures in any non-recalled desiccated PSAN inflators.It is understood that desiccants fully saturate at some threshold, at which point any additional moisture will not be captured. This means the degradation process observed in non-desiccated inflators using propellant 2004 may also occur in non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004, assuming additional moisture enters the inflator and high temperature cycling occurs. Based on available information, desiccant saturation can occur within the first five years in the worst environments, and the time required for full saturation is affected by multiple factors. While no present safety risk has been identified, further work is needed to evaluate the future risk of non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004.Three entities -- Takata (now known as TK Global), the Independent Testing Coalition, and Exponent -- have been studying the long-term behavior of Takata desiccated PSAN inflators using propellant 2004L (as well as 2004) in the presence of moisture and temperature cycling. The research efforts, which include development of predictive modeling techniques and field sample analysis, are ongoing. To date, none of the researchers have identified field evidence showing that propellant 2004L is undergoing a degradation process that leads to aggressive deployment and potential rupture. However, the time in service of such inflators remains short compared to that of the inflators using propellant 2004. Further study is needed to assess the long-term safety of desiccated inflators using propellant 2004L.The Office of Defects Investigation is opening this investigation to examine whether a safety defect related to propellant degradation exists in non-recalled desiccated PSAN frontal inflators manufactured by Takata. This investigation will require extensive information on Takata production processes and surveys of inflators in the field. Lists of recall actions that may have used desiccated PSAN inflators as remedy parts, as well as the makes and models originally manufactured with them, is available with the downloadable version of this document (see nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=EA21002 -- note this information is subject to change/revision as the investigation proceeds). This investigation does not supersede EA15-001, which remains open.

• 10229255Transmission Oil Pan, Heater (TMU), Tube or O-ring Applies to vehicles equipped with 8 speed transmissions only; if you have a leak that appears to be at the pan the use of proper leak detection is recommended. The fluid in the 8 speeds can be detected with a black light and there are aftermarket spray on leak detection materials to help ensure that the leak is properly diagnosed and not from another location such as cooler lines, heater tubes, or case porosity. Please note that the transmission pan gasket is available for many of the 8 speed applications FCA offers. Please review the available quick connect and transfer tube parts, as replacement of the TMU may not be required. If a TOC line connection is found to be the source, the quick connect may need replacement. If the leak source is coming from the connection of the TMU to the transmission, the transfer tube may need replacement. When parts are returned to the QEC the retaining clips (snap ring) for the quick disconnect fittings are missing. (This leaves a question as to whether the clips were missing from the assembly plant, or the technician removed them in order to make line removal easier.) Please return the clips with the transmission heater and note if they were not there to begin with. For any questions regarding transmission heater, contact FCA Redacted Content. If no response in 15 minutes, proceed with repair.
