Power train, manual transmission, column shift assemblyNov 23, 2022
Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2022 Dodge Charger and Durango vehicles. The shifter assembly was not properly heat-treated, which can prevent the shifter from properly engaging in the "drive" position.
An improperly engaged shifter assembly may slip out of the "drive" position, resulting in a sudden loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash.
Dealers will replace the shifter assembly, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 17, 2023. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC customer service at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US, LLC's number for this recall ZB3.

Tires, pressure monitoring and regulating systemsOct 27, 2022
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2022 Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger, and Chrysler 300 vehicles. The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensor battery may fail prematurely and cause the sensor to become inoperative. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems."
Inoperative TPMS sensors will not alert the driver to low tire pressure. In addition, a TPMS warning light that is already illuminated from a failed battery sensor will mask an actual tire pressure failure issue. Either of these scenarios can result in tire failure and increase the risk of a crash.
Dealers will inspect and replace the TPMS sensors, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 10, 2022. Owners may contact FCA US, LLC at 1-800-853-1403. FCA US, LLC's number for this recall is ZB5. This recall is an expansion of previous recall number 22V-504.

Exterior lighting, Sep 19, 2026
The center read “race track” light has water intrusion which will short the circuit and there is no way to drain or dry the light. It appears to be a widespread issue based on what I’ve seen online similar to the Durango.
Electrical system, Exterior lighting, Sep 18, 2026
I am submitting this complaint regarding a recurring right turn signal malfunction on my 2022 Dodge Charger SXT, VIN [XXX]. The vehicle is experiencing a failure involving the right turn signal. This is concerning because the turn signal is required safety equipment used to communicate turns and lane changes to other motorists. When the signal is not functioning properly, other drivers may not receive adequate warning of the vehicle’s intended movement, increasing the risk of a collision. I am particularly concerned that this may not be an isolated failure. I have observed numerous reports from other Dodge Charger owners describing similar turn signal problems. The apparent pattern raises concern that there may be a common component, electrical, lighting assembly, or other defect affecting these vehicles rather than an isolated maintenance issue. The malfunction also creates a compliance concern for owners. Georgia law requires vehicle turn signals to be maintained in good working condition. An owner experiencing this apparent defect may therefore be placed in the position of operating a vehicle with required safety equipment that is not functioning properly and could potentially be subject to a traffic stop or citation. I am requesting that NHTSA review available consumer complaints, manufacturer reports, warranty claims, technical service information, repair data, and other relevant information concerning turn signal failures in Dodge Charger vehicles to determine whether a broader safety-related defect exists and whether further investigation is warranted. I am willing to provide photographs, videos, dashboard warnings, diagnostic information, repair orders, dealer communications, or other documentation regarding the failure if needed.
