Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2020 Jeep Gladiator and Jeep Cherokee, 2019-2020 Ram 1500 Pickup, Ram 2500 Pickup, Ram 3500 Pickup, Chrysler Pacifica, Dodge Durango, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep Wrangler, and Jeep Renegade and 2019 Dodge Challenger vehicles equipped with 8.4" or 12" radio displays. A software error can cause the rearview camera image to remain displayed after the vehicle has been shifted out of reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 111, "Rearview Mirrors."
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2019 Dodge Challenger and Charger vehicles. An incompatible front wheel and brake package was installed and may allow the front tire to contact the steering knuckle, causing tire damage.
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2019 Dodge Challenger and Charger and Chrysler 300 vehicles. The instrument cluster may not properly illuminate driver warnings. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 101, "Control and Displays."
I am filing a formal complaint regarding a premature, dangerous failure of the AC evaporator core on my 2019 Dodge Challenger R/T. The vehicle has only 22,000 original miles.An authorized service facility diagnosed the issue and confirmed that the evaporator core has suffered a complete internal failure and leak. This component is supposed to last the lifetime of the vehicle, and its premature failure at such low mileage points to a severe manufacturing, design, or material defect by Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA/Stellantis).This defect presents two distinct, immediate safety hazards to vehicle occupants:SEVERE VISIBILITY HAZARD / DEFROST FAILURE: Because the AC evaporator removes moisture from the cabin air, its total failure means the vehicle's defroster can no longer adequately clear the windshield. During humid or rainy conditions, the windshield suddenly, heavily, and completely fogs over, severely obstructing the driver's visibility. This creates an immediate risk of a collision as the driver is suddenly blinded while traveling at highway speeds, unable to clear the glass.TOXIC CHEMICAL EXPOSURE: Because the evaporator core is located directly inside the HVAC air box, the active leak causes chemical refrigerant (R-1234yf) and atomized compressor oil mist to blow directly through the climate control vents into the sealed passenger cabin. Occupants are forced to breathe in these chemical vapors, causing physical discomfort, headaches, and respiratory irritation. This is a well-documented failure pattern among late-model Dodge Challengers, and I urge the NHTSA to investigate this equipment defect before it results in a visibility-related crash or prolonged chemical exposure injuries. I request that a formal defect investigation be launched, and that FCA be forced to issue a safety recall to protect consumers from the extreme out-of-pocket costs and safety risks associated with this defective HVAC component.

the car shot up in RPM would not slow down spinning tires while holding the brake hard. had to go in neutral and kill the motor, when restarted it would continue to do the same thing

My vehicle was parked in the driveway with a car cover over it and it caught on fire. The fire appeared to have started by the driver side headlight area and quickly ignited and burnt the whole front end of the car. The fire department showed up to put the fire out and they did not see any foul play. Surveillance camera shows the car catching on fire on it own without anyone near it. The last time it was driven it was a week ago. No after market parts in the car either, it’s all stock with very low miles or 12K.
The factory-installed Uconnect infotainment system in my 2019 Dodge Challenger intermittently malfunctions by remaining stuck on the rearview camera display after the vehicle is shifted out of reverse and into drive or park. The rearview camera image does not disengage as designed and continues to display randomly during normal forward driving. This appears to be a failure of the Uconnect radio/software system rather than the camera itself. The issue occurs unpredictably and has happened multiple times without warning. Restarting the vehicle is sometimes required to restore normal screen function. This malfunction creates a safety hazard because the display obstructs access to navigation, climate controls, and other critical vehicle information while driving forward, causing driver distraction and reduced situational awareness. Backup cameras are federally mandated safety equipment, and failure of the system to disengage properly interferes with safe vehicle operation. Additionally, I am medically light-sensitive due to chronic migraines. When the rearview camera display remains active unexpectedly, the bright and high-contrast screen significantly worsens my symptoms, increasing pain, visual discomfort, and distraction while driving. This exacerbates the safety risk and makes the malfunction an extreme concern for me during vehicle operation. No warning lights or messages appear prior to or during the malfunction. The problem has not yet been repaired. The vehicle and system remain available for inspection upon request. This failure mode matches known Dodge/Stellantis rearview camera and Uconnect software defects reported on similar model-year vehicles, although my VIN is not currently included in an active recall.
