NHTSA Complaint #10983835 — 2012 DODGE CHALLENGER

TRACKTION LIGHT CAME ON(LITTLE CAR WITH TIRE TRACKS) THEN DEAD, WON'T HOLD A CHARGE.EXCACT SAME THING IS HAPPING TO THOUSANDS. ALTERNATOR REPLACED @ DODGE/$1,000. THERE'S A RECALL, (P60) 2011-2014/DODGE CHALLENGER'S THE ALTERNATER 160 AMP IS DEFECTIVE! SO WHY DID I HAVE TO PAY???? BECAUSE (THEY) ARE ONLY REPLACING THEM ON 3.6 L ENGINES NOT 5.7 L LIKE MINE!SO I GUESS IT'S ONLY DEFECTIVE WHEN U HAVE A SMALLER ENGINE? I PAID MORE$ FOR MY ENGINE SO I GUESS THEY THINK A DEFECTIVE ALTERNATOR IS GOING TO SOME HOW WORK? WELL IT DOSNT! MY QUESTION IS DID THEY PUT THE NEW AND IMPROVED ALTERNATOR ON MINE? OR DO I JUST HAVE TO PRAY THIS ONE DOSNT GO OUT AGAIN, ON THE FREEWAY AGAIN AND CAUSE A HUGE ACCIDENT! EVER BEEN COMING DOWN THE GRAPEVINE AT 70 MPH AND YOUR CAR GOES DEAD? NO STEERING NO BRAKES, IT'S LIKE AN E TICKET RIDE AT DISNEYLAND😳SO IF U BUY A CHALLENGER MAKE SURE U GET 3.6L BECAUSE THEY REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE ALTERNATOR FOR FREE! IF YOU DON'T CAUSE AN ACCIDENT FIRST! NO ONE SEEMS TO B WORRIED ABOUT THIS, BUT IF U OWN A CHALLENGER BE CAREFUL....... I CAN'T REALLY ANSWER THE QUESTIONS ON FORM, THEY ARE YES AND NO,,,,,,,,, THIS WHOLE THING IS VERY GREY.
