Recall Service & Dealership Highlights
Safety Concerns
NHTSA recall information identifies five safety recalls affecting four components of the 2018 Dodge Charger. A backup-camera software issue may leave the driver without a rear display in Reverse, while an electrical-system defect may cause a stall or no-start condition. Another electrical-system defect may keep cruise control from disengaging, creating a risk of unintended acceleration or maintained speed. Certain all-wheel-drive V8 pursuit vehicles may experience front driveshaft separation, and an incorrect park lock rod may allow unintended movement. Waiting can leave these hazards unresolved. Stop using cruise control until the applicable update is completed and schedule service promptly.
