NHTSA Complaint #11081233 — 2012 DODGE AVENGER

ON MY 2012 DODGE AVENGER, I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY ALTERNATOR AND HAD TO REPLACE IT 3 TIMES, 2 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 YRS. I HAVE GOTTEN IT CHECKED AND THE WARNING WAS DETECTED THAT IT WAS THE CHARGING SYSTEM, AND WIRING SYSTEM. THE FIRST TIME I EXPERIENCED THIS, MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR STALLED IMMEDIATELY WITH ALMOST NO WARNING EXCEPT THE LIGHT POPS ON DECELERATION AND STALLED ON THE INTERSTATE. THE NEXT TIME I EXPERIENCED IT WAS WHEN I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK BATTERY LIGHT THEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THEN THE NEXT DAY I NEEDED A BATTERY BUT I WAS TOLD AT THE DODGE DEALERSHIP THAT THE CODE WAS FOR THE CHARGING SYSTEM NOT CHARGING PROPERLY MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT ONE OF THE VINS THAT IS A RECALL FOR MY CAR, HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE WHEN I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS TIME AFTER TIME. I SEE WHERE SEVERAL CUSTOMERS HAVE REPORTED FOR THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL. WHY IS THIS NOT A RECALL FOR MY VIN AS WELL. SEE ALSO 11081253
