2015 Dodge Charger Speed Control & Cruise Problems

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR IT AUTOMATICALLY SWITCHED INTO PARKED WHILE THE GEAR SHIFT WAS STILL POSITIONED IN PARK. THE CAR WILL START AND THE AIR AND EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS FINE, THE GEAR SHIFT WILL EVEN MOVE INTO DRIVE. BUT WHEN I PUSH THE GAS IT SAY 'PLACE CAR IN P THEN SHIFT TO DESIRED GEAR' AGAIN THE CAR ISN'T RUNNING HOT OR HAS ANY OTHER PROBLEMS.

ON MY WAY TO WORK, MY ABS AND ESC LIGHT LIGHTS FLASHED ON THE DASH. ESC WAS IN RED AND ABS WAS IN YELLOW. I PULLED THE CAR OVER, CUT IT OFF, AND GOOGLED WHAT IT MAY BE AND ALL KINDS OF STUFF CAME UP IN REFERENCE TO WHAT IT COULD BE. ONCE I STARTED THE ENGINE AGAIN, IT WAS GONE. LET IT BE KNOWN, I TRAVEL ON THE INTERSTATE TO GO TO WORK, SO THIS WAS A VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE FOR ME. I PUT MY CAR IN DRIVE TOOK OFF ONCE I GOT UP TO 78, I PUT MY CRUISE ON AND THEN ABOUT 10 MINS LATER THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON AGAIN. THIS TIME, IT SHUT MY CRUISE OFF AND IT'S LIKE SOMEONE PULLED MY STEERING WHEEL FROM ME. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AGAIN AND CUT THE CAR OFF. I WOULD REALLY HATE TO BE DRIVING 75-79 MPH AND MY STEERING GOES OUT. PHONED DODGE AND WAS TOLD TO BRING IT FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND THEY COULD TELL ME WHAT IT WAS. I WENT AHEAD ON AND CONTINUED TO WORK AND IT DID NOT DO IT AGAIN, EVEN COMING HOME. I JUST DID NOT USE THE CRUISE. TIME HAS PASSED AND IT DID NOT COME BACK ON BUT NOW (TWICE) WHEN I USE MY BRAKES, IT FEELS LIKE THEY ARE SLIPPING. NOT TO MENTION AS OF 30 MINS AGO MY LIGHTS HAVE COME BACK ON. I WAS TOLD IT MAY BE A SENSOR BUT IT'S HARD TO TELL WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE NOT ON. THIS CAR IS MY LIFE.. MY MEANS TO TAKE CARE OF MYSELF AND MY FAMILY. I CANNOT FINANCIALLY GIVE HUNDREDS EVERY TIME A LIGHT COME ON AND THEN IT GOES OFF AND NOTHING CAN BE DONE. I WAS TOLD MY BREAKS AND ROTORS WERE FINE, YET I AM STILL GOING TO REPLACE THEM. I JUST NEED THIS TO BE INVESTIGATED FURTHER.. I AM A TRUE MOPAR FAN AND I LOVE MY DODGE, BUT IF I OR MY FAMILY IS IN DANGER DRIVING/RIDING IN THIS CAR, MYSELF AND SOMEONE ELSE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IT AND SEE IF SOMETHING CAN BE DONE. PLEASE ADVISE..THANK YOU! *TR

VEHICLE WAS AT DEALERSHIP (ACADIANA DODGE). AFTER BEING THERE FOR NEARLY A MONTH VEHICLE STILL HADN'T BEEN PROPERLY SERVICED. PASSED WORDS WITH SERVICE MANAGER AND THEY REFUSED TO COMPLETE SERVICE HAD TO TAKE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP AND PAY ANOTHER DEDUCTIBLE. I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE FROM THIS DEALERSHIP THEREFORE I FEEL AS IF THEY SHOULD'VE MADE IT AN PRIORITY TO MAKE SURE MY VEHICLE WAS SAFE TO DRIVE AND THAT I WAS SATISFIED AS AN CUSTOMER. THEY ALSO LISTED SERVICES COMPLETED ON INVOICE THAT HADN'T BEEN RENDERED. U DO NOT TRUST DEALERSHIPS. I FEEL AS IF I WAS DISCRIMINATED ON BECAUSE IF MY GENDER AND RACE AND WAS COMPLETELY TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF. PATHETIC!

OCCURS WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR STATIONARY. ALTHOUGH PROBLEM IS PRIMARILY OBSERVED WHILE IN MOTION. ACCELERATOR/BRAKE ASSEMBLY MOVES TOWARDS THE SEAT WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THIS CAUSES INCREASED PRESSURE ON THE PEDAL UNKNOWINGLY. IF DRIVING - THE CAR WILL SUDDENLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY ACCELERATE, IF BRAKING - INCREASED PRESSURE CAUSES UNPREDICTABLE DECREASE IN SPEED. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN ADDRESSED BY DEALER TWICE ON THE SAME VEHICLE. THE FIRST TIME THE SWITCH WAS REPLACED WHICH DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THE SECOND TIME THE ENTIRE ACCELERATOR/BRAKE ASSEMBLY WAS REPLACED WHICH DID FIX THE ISSUE. AFTER LESS THAN ONE YEAR THE PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED AGAIN. THE PROBLEM IS THAT EVEN A SMALL INCREASE IN PRESSURE ON THE GAS HAS A DRAMATIC EFFECT ON SPEED AND ACCELERATION. IT IS ALMOST IMPERCEPTIBLE THAT THE PEDAL IS MOVING TOWARDS THE DRIVER WHILE DRIVING. THE PEDAL WILL CONTINUE MOVING UNTIL AT FULL FORWARD (CLOSEST TO THE DRIVER) OR SWITCH IS USED. THE SWITCH LOCATED ON THE SEAT WILL STOP THE MOVEMENT AND STILL OPERATES TO MOVE THE PEDALS BACK TO THEIR DESIRED POSITION.

VEHICLE ACCELERATES ON ITS ON, AND WHEN BARELY PRESSING THE GAS WHILE IN MOTION ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAYS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE CHARGER. WHILE SITTING IN THE PARKED VEHICLE, THE CONTACT PLACED THE GEAR SHIFTER INTO DRIVE AND THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE PRECEDING VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,700.

FROM THE VERY BEGINNING OF PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE, THE THROTTLE RESPONSE HAS BEEN AN ISSUE. IF YOU SLOW DOWN TO AN ALMOST STOP, OR STOP WITHOUT WAITING A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME, THERE IS A DELAY IN THE VEHICLES ACCELERATION. I HAVE ALSO HAD ISSUES UPON TRYING TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY, SUCH AS TRYING TO PASS ON THE FREEWAY, THE RPM'S WILL RUN HIGH BUT THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE, THUS HAVING TO LET UP ON THE GAS PEDAL AND PUSH IT AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS ALMOST DAILY AND I HAVE HAD IT IN TO THE DEALER MORE THAN ONCE WITH NO RESOLUTION.
