NHTSA Complaint #10682833 — 2007 DODGE CHARGER

THIS VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH DOWN THE ROAD SUDDENLY HAD THE BATTERY LIGHT COME ON THEN THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT THEN ALL THE WARNING GAUGES CAME ON AND STARTED BLINKING AS THIS WAS HAPPENING THE VEHICLES ENGINE WAS ACCELERATING AND DECELERATING, AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO PAST FIRST GEAR ROAD THE SHOULDER UNTIL I COULD GET SAFELY OFF THE ROAD. SHUT VEHICLE OFF IT SEEMED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. WENT TO HAVE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHECKED BOTH WERE FINE. SINCE THEN EVERY FEW DAYS THE BATTERY LIGHT WILL COME ON AND THEN GO OFF AFTER VEHICLE IS RESTARTED. TODAY 2/11/2015 THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND THE VEHICLE STARTED TO BUCK AROUND 40 MPH THEN STOP IF I ACCELERATED OR DECELERATED. AND AT ONE POINT WHEN IDLING AT A RED LIGHT IT STALLED AND THEN STARTED BACK UP. I HAVE HEARD A LOT OF SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THIS PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. WE AS THE CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT TO BE MADE TO SHELL OUT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR THINGS THAT THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD STAND BEHIND. WE PAY ENOUGH FOR THE CAR TO BEGIN WITH WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY MORE FOR SOMETHING THAT IS OBVIOUSLY NOT ISOLATED TO ONE OR TWO INCIDENTS. SOME OF THE PARTS THAT ARE RUMORED TO BE THE PROBLEM ARE FCM, TCM, AND ECM. ALL ARE SUPPOSEDLY FIXED WITH A COMPUTER UPDATE. WELL THEN SO BE IT DON'T CHARGE US THE CONSUMER. *TR
