NHTSA Complaint #10519923 — 2006 DODGE CHARGER

AS PULLING INTO BUSINESS PARKING LOT, NOTICED SUDDENLY INTERNAL CAR TEMPERATURE RAISED SUDDENLY. AS I PULLED INTO PARKING SPACE NOTICED THE TEMP. GAUGE WENT FROM MED. TO HOT WITHIN SECONDS SIMULTANEOUSLY THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND BEEPED. IN REVIEWING THE MANUFACTURER MANUAL, WAS ADVISED TO SHUT OF ENGINE IMMEDIATELY AND TAKE IN TO DEALER FOR SERVICE. I CONTACTED MY SALES REPRESENTATIVE THAT I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM FOR ADVISE. WE DETERMINED DUE TO NATURE OF PROBLEM, THE VEHICLE SHOULD NOT GO FAR. I TOOK TO LOCAL MIDAS SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHOM ADVISED THERE WAS A GENERAL RECALL NOTICE. I CALLED LOCAL DEALERSHIP THAT DENIED COMPLAINTS OR LIABILITY FOR MY VIN. I THEN CALL CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT ALSO DENIED KNOWLEDGE OF ANY SAFETY NOTICES. I REQUESTED THE COST FOR REPAIR; HOWEVER, 1.5 LATER NO ESTIMATE. I DECIDED TO CHECK ONLINE MYSELF THOUGHT IT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF CURRENT/FUTURE DODGE OWNERS TO INITIATE AN INVESTIGATION COMPLAINT. *TR
