Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING HOME WITH MY 2011 DODGE CHALLENGER V6, THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS (ABS,TRACTION CONTROL, AIRBAGS, ETC) CAME ON. I WAS DRIVING AROUND 60 MPH AND SHORTLY THEREAFTER THE CAR LOST POWER. STEERING LOCKED, I SOMEHOW STAYED ON THE ROAD AND SLOWED DOWN WITH THE BRAKE POWER I HAD LEFT AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. SINCE I WAS ON A TURN I KEPT GOING TO THE SHOULDER. FINALLY STOPPED AND THE WHOLE CAR JUST DIED. I READ ABOUT ALTERNATOR FAILURE IN THIS PARTICULAR MODEL. THIS SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE THAT BUT, THE RECALL IS STILL 2 WEEKS AWAY. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A LOCAL CHRYSLER/ DODGE DEALERSHIP. NOW SADDLED WITH A BILL FOR REPAIRS THAT I HOPE I CAN GET REIMBURSED FOR. *TR
