2017 Dodge Challenger owner complaints

Two radios have gone out within 30k miles. I am getting my 3rd replacement at 31k miles. The screen is frozen and says Dodge. Not able to access climate controls. Going to try upgrading to the better factory radio, it only costs 1648 for parts and install!!! This is a consistent problem per the internet. Please recall this issue!!!

The touch screen on the 2017 dodge challenger radio is separating, which controls all systems on the car!! System is changing settings on its own. This is very dangerous.

Computerapps on display screen constantly resetting itself, freezes up constantly and cannot turn down or off radio or any other features until it resets itself . Back up camera terrible when in use at night screens blurry and bright red from back up or brake lights. Back up camera stays on after vehicle is put in drive happens at all times in the driveway, driving down the highway...etc

I was driving down the highway when my vehicle completely cut off on me forcing me to pull over the car lost power.very very unsafe. I pull over and was able to press the push start and the vehicle started again about 15 minutes late it cut completely off again losing all power I end up getting the vehicle towed. While the vehicle was being tow the power came back on then lost all power again. I thought it was my battery so I purchase a new battery however that was not the case traveling back how that same day it cut off twice on the highway scaring the you know what out of me. I managed to make home. The next morning I went to start the car and the power completely dead so I tried playing with the battery and power cut on so I cranked up the vehicle and proceeded to drive to work

The 8.4 Uconnect radio controls many aspects of the vehicle including hands free communications. When a communication device is paired to the system, at a random time, the device becomes unpaired and hands free communication becomes unusable. Additionally, at a random time, when the steering wheel communication button is pressed, the voice prompt announces "SIRI not connected". At that point, hands-free communication is not possible. It should be noted that SIRI is an Apple device feature. I have never used nor connected an Apple device to the system. The radio was dealership replaced in 2021 under partial goodwill coverage and partial cost to me. During my last dealership visit, I noted the issues and asked the service department to check the system software for updates. They verified th

Uconnect 8.4in screen started to become blurry, like the screen was peeling away or delaminating causing malfunction in touch controls, which includes controlling vehicle performance and settings. Dealer said screen was cracked, not of my own doing. They stated that was not covered under warranty, though vehicle was certified pre-owned with additional warranty purchased. Vehicle owned for 7mths and driven 6000 miles.

Jumping radio and start to turn up the volume , turn on and off the seats heater , change srt presets etc

While in park or driving radio glitches, changes heating cooling on seats and steering wheel changes also lights and display radio screen does not let you touch to change any information or display. Radio turns off and on, while backing up the back up camera stays on when putting in car in drive, also the car is now saying that it is a Chrysler when it is a Dodge challenger

Radio malfunctions, favorite song/ artists displays, will continue to show same song over and over again even when not on, freezes, and no volume. Does not matter if the car is in park, driving or ideling.this has been going on for about 2 months.

My 2017 Dodge Challenger has an 8.4 UConnect touch screen that is experiencing the common delamination defect. There are no warning lights or codes, and my car has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance. It is currently available for inspection, but as it has escalated to a safety concern I do not know how long I can keep it in the car. The screen started delaminating 4 years ago, conveniently months after the car was no longer under the 3 year warranty. In 2020 the dealer charged me the $150 diagnostic fee, and then told me the only thing to do was spend another $1500 to replace the unit. The delamination is happening due to known manufacturer errors in the glue used, and is not exacerbated by owner misuse. After 4 years, the delaminating has spread to over half of

They preyed on me, they overcharged me for the car in the 1st place, they lied to me and tried to cleverly extort me while victimizing me with their Predatory Lending. And in the midst of that, they broke several laws. Therefore, after gathering all of the evidence that I have... I really feel they have taken advantage of me. I work hard for my money ( being away from my family, driving from state to state ) to provide/pay for nice things for my family like this Big Beautiful Muscle car. Only to be victimized by the very company I purchased it from. Now... Any type of financing "ANYTHING" stresses me out. I worry will I be victimized again, from companies like Coast 2 Coast? And they have several locations just in the Houston area. Therefore, I'm wondering how many people have they done t

I took my car to the mechanic because the car was leaking radiator fluid. In testing the car he found that the head gasket had blown. He confirmed this with a hydrocarbon test. The car has 72,000 miles on it. I am the original owner. After saving the money to get the head gasket done. I was driving the car around when it began to to run poorly. At idle it was running very badly. I took it back to the mechanic to see what this issue was. After doing some testing they started to take the camshaft out of the car. It came out in 2 pieces. My car has the 3.6 in it. There is a class action lawsuit for this issue but because whatever part was linked to the lawsuit was not installed in my car I am not entitled to the fix. There are many more people with the same issue with the 3.6 liter Pentastar

Dear [NHTSA / Indiana Attorney General], I am filing a complaint regarding a serious safety issue with my vehicle, a 2017 Dodge Challenger, purchased on [XXX] from Wetzel Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, Richmond, Indiana). Six months after purchase, the steering column failed, leaving the vehicle unsafe to drive. The dealership confirmed the repair cost at $4,500 but refused assistance, and Stellantis has also declined support despite the fact that this is a critical safety component necessary to control the vehicle. This defect poses a significant risk of sudden steering loss while driving, endangering both myself and others on the road. I respectfully request that your office review this matter for potential manufacturer accountability, safety recall investigation, or consumer protection enf
