NHTSA Complaint #10535978 — 2010 DODGE CHALLENGER

ENGINE STALLED IN TRAFFIC. MY WIFE ,A NURSE LIVES 3 MILES FROM WORK. THE AIR CONDITIONING HAS ALWAYS BEEN POOR WHILE DRIVING IN THE CITY AN MORE EFFICIENT ON THE HIGHWAY BUT NEVER REALLY COLD. HER CAR HAS HAD THE WATER PUMP REPLACED FOR LEAKING SHAFT SEAL. ENGINE SHUT OFF IN TRAFFIC. THE ENGINE SHOWED HOT. TOOK TO DEALER, AND AGAIN THE WATER PUMP GASKET WAS LEAKING. THEY SAID THAT WAS THE REASON THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS NOT UP TO SPECIFICATIONS. NO CODES IN THE COMPUTER. AFTER CHANGING THE ORIFICE TUBE. STILL NOT COOLING. NOW CHANGING THE DRYER AN CONDENSER. STILL DOESN'T COOL. FREON HAS BEEN DRAINED AN REFILLED NOW 5 TIMES DURING TROUBLE SHOOTING. COME TO THINK ABOUT IT. THE CAR HAS STALLED TWICE ON ME TURNING OUT OF THE PARKING LOT AT MY LODGE. THIS ENGINE STALLING IS A CONCERN FOR ME BECAUSE SHE IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO HANDLE THE STEERING AN BRAKES. I SEE IT'S AN ISSUE WITH OTHER OWNERS. THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO BEFORE A MAJOR INJURY HAPPENS. *TR
