ENGINE
I HAVE A 2005 DODGE MAGNUM AND I WENT INTO THE CLEANERS TO DROP MY CLOTHES OFF. I WENT IN THE CLEANERS AND CAME OUT AND ATTEMPTED TO START MY CAR AND IT WOULDN'T START. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP. I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO THE SHOP AND THE MECHANIC STATED IT WAS MY ENGINE WAS OUT. I THINK ITS THE TIMING CHAIN. I SEEN RECALLS FOR MY ENGINE BUT THEY STATE ITS FOR THE NEWER VERSION OF THE HEMI BUT I THINK ITS ALL THE SAME RECALL. I GET MY CAR MAINTENANCE AT THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AND I HAVEN'T HAD ANY ENGINE PROBLEMS, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS , LOSS AF POWER. THERE WERE LITERALLY NO SIGNS. I HAD GOT MY OIL CHANGED AT THE DEALERSHIP WITHIN A MONTH OF THE INCIDENT.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE CAR STALLS SOON AFTER REFILLING THE FUEL TANK, THE FILLING WAS STOPPED WHEN THE PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A STREET, AND ALSO WHILE TURNING ONTO A HIGHWAY. THE CAR BECOMES DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER DUE TO THE LOSS OF POWER ASSIST PROVIDED TO THE STEERING AND BRAKES BY THE ENGINE. THIS APPEARS TO BE CAUSED BY A LACK OF FUEL TO THE ENGINE. THE CAR HAS RESTARTED, SO FAR, AFTER A FEW SECONDS SITTING STILL IN THE TRAFFIC.

I AM THE SECOND OWNER. THE CAR IS USED VERY LITTLE. THE FIRST TIME I FILLED IT UP , NOT OVER FILL THE CAR STARTED STALLING OUT. IT IS AN ISSUE WHEN ALL THE POWER STEERING IS NOT WORKING AND IT STALLS AT LOW SPEED. THE SECOND TIME IT DID IT I SPENT OVER 700.00 DOLLARS TO CHECK EVERYTHING OUT. CAR HAS 69000 MILES. IT'S STILL STALLING AFTER I FILL UP. I CALLED AND MY CAR IS NOT COVERED UNDER A FEB.19,2014 RECALL. SAME PROBLEM THAT STARTED THE RECALL. OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. HAPPENS AT LOW SPEED AND WHEN TURNING AFTER A FILL-UP. I WILL NOT LET MY WIFE DRIVE THIS CAR, TOO DANGEROUS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
OUR DODGE MAGNUM HAS FLICKERING HEADLIGHTS AS WELL AS DASH LIGHTS ALSO FLICKER. WE OUR CURRENTLY UNABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE SAFETY AT NIGHT. DODGE SAYS IT COULD BE 2 POTENTIAL PROBLEMS,FIRST TRY REPLACING THE LIGHT SWITCH WHICH HAS BEEN DONE. THE PROBLEM STILL EXIST,NEXT TO REPLACE THE FCM [FRONT CONTROL MODULE]. THE FCM IS ON BACK ORDER WITH NO RELEASE DATE AVALIABLE. OK SO THEY SAID TO REPLACE THE PCM WHICH INCLUDES THE FCM WHICH IS ALSO NOT AVALIABLE. THE LIGHS ONLY FLICKER WHEN THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING AND AT NIGHT. MAKES NO DIFFERENCE WHEN TURNING OR SPEED. WE HAVE CONTACTED MULTIPLE DEALERS AN ALL HAVE THE SAME RESPONSE. THE DEALERS SUGESTED WE TRY A JUNK YARD FOR A USE FCM, BUT HOW CAN WE BE SURE THAT SOLVES THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM STARTED AROUND JANUARY 2018. WE PURCHASED THE CAR NEW 2005. WE FEEL THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESS ASAP. PLEASE HELP US
