FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
TAKATA RECALL MY DODGE IS FAIRLY NEW. A 2010 AND THE GAS GAUGE HAS COMPLETELY STOPPED READING CORRECTLY. IT'LL DIE WHEN IT READS THERE'S A QUARTER OF A TANK LEFT OR EVEN WHEN IT SAYS THERE IS HALF A TANK LEFT. I'VE BEEN IN MULTIPLE SITUATIONS WHEN THE CAR HAS DIED AND I READ A LOT OF FORUMS WITH PEOPLE THE SAME MAKE MODEL HAVING THIS ISSUE.

TOWED MY CAR TO DEALERSHIP ON 1/24/2019 DUE TO LIFESAVING RECALLS AND WAS REFUSED THE LIFESAVING REPAIRS BASED OFF MY VEHICLE ALLEGEDLY NOT BEING ABLE TO START WHICH IS A LIE BECAUSE THE TOWING SERVICE JUMP STARTED THE BATTERY AT MY PLACE OF RESIDENCE AND DROVE THE CAR ONTO THE TOWING BED.HENCE MY VEHICLE STILL POSING A THREAT ON LIFE AND CLIENT SAFETY AS A WHOLE. WHICH WILL NOT BE ERADICATED UNTIL I FIX THE CAR WHICH IN THAT TIME THE AIRBAGS COULD EXPLODE AND KILL MYSELF AND OTHER INNOCENT PEOPLE.

STRUCTURE:BODY, ENGINE
MY 2010 DODGE CHARGER CAUGHT FIRE AND EXPLODED. I WAS SITTING IN IT WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER RUNNING, WAITING FOR MY SON. I SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING, BUT NOT LIKE PLASTIC OR THE SMELL WHEN IT'S OVERHEATING. I LOOKED AT MY DASH AND THE THERMOSTAT NEEDLE WAS STRAIGHT UP THEN I SAW A LITTLE PUFF OF SMOKE OUT OF THE CORNER OF MY EYE. I POPPED THE HOOD AND FLAMES SHOT ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD. I OPENED THE DOOR AND ROLLED OUT BECAUSE MY SEAT WAS RECLINED. I COULD SEE FIRE UNDER THE HOOD, I REACHED BACK IN AND TURNED THE ENGINE OFF THINKING MAYBE IT WOULD HELP. I GRABBED MY PHONE WHICH WAS STUCK TO THE DASH WITH A MAGNET AND I RAN LIKE HELL!
