Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2010 DODGE Charger. It was discovered that there was a mileage discrepancy. The vehicle was a private sale. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 71,000 and at the time of registration, it was discovered that the mileage was 162,185.
While I am driving the vehicle it shuts off and the key seems to be loose. It has shut off multiple times while operating driving down the highway making it unsafe to get to the side of the road

Something wrong in the fuel system. Gas guage incorrect and when putting fuel in sometimes it spits it back out without having full tank.
The engine seizes up if you look at 2010 dodge chargers almost every one that has a problem is the engine seized up on them.
The contact owns a 2010 Dodge Charger. The contact stated that while attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle failed to start. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed; however, the cause of the failure was not yet determined. The contact stated that the vehicle would start occasionally. The contact researched and related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 10V200000 (Electrical System). The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and confirmed that the vehicle was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was unavailable.
Got rear ended day later hears a winding noise and engine light came on then Battery light came on. When driving next day all lights on dash board came on and car died. Thought was battery changed it then restarted car. Next day bring to get diagnosed and said altnator was testing bad so had that replaced but Battery light stayed on. Took to collision center dodge and they said pcm was bad so had that replaced. The mechanic stated common problem when altnator dies it burns up the pm module. So I had to wait 2 months for it to get replaced and now changed still the check engine lights and battery light is on.
2010 police charger fobik started falling out of ignition.. problem continues dealership says no big deal eventually the day came when I tried to turn the car off and I couldn't switch will no longer turn to the off position... Every time I want to turn the car off I have to pop the hood pull a fuse then get in the trunk and disconnect the battery. I went online did a recall search and found that I have no open recalls however I found hundreds if not thousands of people are having this same issue... Dealership said it was on me... I found online a recall notice k08 on cars built between Jan and March with this issue have a recall mines built in Feb but the vin number shows no recall wtf... Plugged in my scan tool which knows my vin and showed me the same recall notice on cars built at that time and on the notice it just has build dates nothin about vin numbers... Goin back to the dealership Monday.. this is an absolutely ludicrous situation that is potentially fatal that Chrysler needs to address!
Drove on hwy no problem made it into town Smelled gas & seen smoke coming from hood briefly(tank was half full )Turned car off got out seen smoke from under the hood, opened the hood as best as i could and seen flames coming from under the hood.CALL fire Dept. dash have no warnings of anything only the smell and being observant saves my life

Hi I have been trying to get my recalls fixed but everytime I call the dealership they take my information but they never call me back, it has been many months waiting and It says that my airbag can deploy shrapnel everywhere because of humidity.. I have a heart pump and I take many medications and one of them is a blood thinner. If I get hurt from flying shrapnel it could and most likely will kill me because while taking blood thinners it makes it so that you bleed very easily.. I really don't want to die so is there anyway I can get help with my recalls please.. The place that won't call me back is Lithia Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Grand Forks, ND
No-start after 10 yrs of driving service the engine light comes on from No-start.
Key falls out of ignition, key can be removed from ignition in any position including run, transmission does not need to be in park to remove key
Wireless Iginition Node(WIN) (RECALL) I have this problem my 2010 Dodge Charger. I've noticed it's a recall on this problem. Problems!
The contact owns a 2010 Dodge Charger. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the timing chain fractured. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer and the contact was informed that the parts to perform the repair was not available. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 113,000.
The "WIN" module on my 2010 dodge charger srt8 is having the defects associated on other 2010 regular chargers but isn't on the recall list .. Why is that ?
There's a open recall for my 2010 dodge charger r/t & I took it to cueter chrysler dodge jeep RAM. They had it for 8 days & had not touched the car since I dropped it off. They said they were waiting on parts now it's been 16 days & have not gotten any word back. What am I supposed to do. The recalls are for the passenger airbag & the engine timing chain which IS very serious in my opinion but must not be to them.
TL* the contact's wife owns a 2010 dodge charger. The contact stated that upon depression of the brake pedal, the shifter lever made an abnormal clicking sound when shifting gears, without warning. The contact linked the noise to a defective transmission shifter interlock lever. The vehicle had yet to be serviced or diagnosed. The contact had not experienced a failure however, if the vehicle was not repaired, the shifter interlock lever may become inoperable. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the vin was not under recall. The contact was then referred to nhtsa for assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 66,000.
I need assistance in having fca (fiat chrysler automotive) important safety recall p60/nhtsa 14v-634 alternator honored (vanished according to fca) to cover the cost of replacing my alternator and battery in my 2010/2011 dodge charger (manufactured in late 2010) which according to the dealership, are now in need of replacement. I have experienced variable electrical/power failures with my vehicle over the course of the summer/fall months of 2020 from reduced and random, temporary power failures, electrical system voltage drops, and lightning bolt sensors coming on which instantly reduced the acceleration of the vehicle on the highway and on occasion even led to complete power failure, shutting off the engine when idling at a stop. this issue came to a head around the end of november 2020 when my vehicle electrical sensor came on randomly while at a stop light and the engine died and made no sound; it would not start.
What IS he noticed that the car IS a 2010 charger and I regularly get my oil changed by the dealership and I start hearing some tapping up under the hood I didn't know what it was so I thought that the car was about to throw a rod and that my engine was going to lock up on me did I heard that this team called the hemi tick you can check it out online on youtube

NHTSA’s Office of Defects Investigation opened these reviews into vehicles including this one.
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.
