Consumer Description

UNFAIR MONETARY HARM TO CUSTOMERS DUE TO DEFECTIVE PART. SAME ISSUE AS MANY HAVE MENTIONED ON HERE WITH DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW REPEATEDLY GOING UP AND DOWN WITHOUT STOPPING WHILE STATIONARY WITH CAR OFF, WHICH DRAINS THE BATTERY AND YOU CAN'T STOP IT. MY 2013 CHALLENGER HAD A BAD WINDOW LATCH, CAUSING THE BATTERY TO DIE (LEFT STRANDED). HAD TO PAY $300 OUT OF POCKET FOR DEALER TO REPLACE LATCH FOR 'SMART GLASS' THAT ISN'T NECESSARY. RECALL ALREADY ISSUED ON THE 2011S, YET RECALLS HAVEN'T BEEN ISSUED FOR NEWER MODELS DESPITE SAME PROBLEMS. I'M THANKFUL FOR NHTSA AND HOPING DODGE IS HELD ACCOUNTABLE.
