Son drove my car and lost control as it sprung out of control and he hit a tree. No airbags deployed during that impact. My insurance company totaled my car out but really didn’t give a reason as to why they didn’t deploy with such a hard hit. Police impounded my car and insurance company inspected my car for a settlement. I asked them why and I said I had to take it up with the manufacturer. He walked away with miner cuts. That could have resulted in his death.

Crash Fire 1 injured

My 2007 Dodge Magnum RT (5.7L Hemi) suffers from a dangerous engine stall immediately after refueling. The vehicle is equipped with the 19-Gallon Fuel Tank. When refueling, if the tank is filled to capacity, the engine stumbles and shuts off completely upon leaving the gas station. This stall occurs without warning in traffic, causing an immediate loss of power steering and power braking assistance, which creates a severe risk of a collision. This is the identical failure addressed in NHTSA Investigation PE13-016 and Chrysler Warranty Extension X53. The internal Multifunction Control Valve (MFCV) is defective; the float has swollen and remains stuck in the "open" position. This allows liquid fuel—not just vapor—to flood the EVAP system and the engine intake. I have already replaced the charcoal canister and purge valve, but the stalling persists, proving the defect is internal to the fuel tank assembly. Despite the 2007 models using the same defective tank design as the 2005-2006 models, Chrysler has excluded my year from the lifetime warranty extension. I am reporting this because it is a safety hazard.

Front passenger and driver airbag recall, stop driving recall. Called the FCA manufacturer to find my recall options, they claim the dealer I requested won’t tow to dealership?? Sounds absurd with the stop driving recall.

The contact owns a 2007 Dodge Magnum. The contact stated that while driving approximately 32 mph the vehicle crashed into a second vehicle causing severe damage to the front end but the front driver side air bag did not deploy and the front passenger-side airbag was partially deployed.

The cause of the failure was not determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were not contacted regarding the incident. The failure mileage was 111,000.

POWER TRAIN - "SHIFT INTERLOCK LATCH" - VECHILE STUCK IN PARK - DODGE WILL NOT PERMIT OUR VECHILE TO BE COVERED BY THEIR "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION NOTIFICATION K39 TRANSMISSION SHIFTER INTERLOCK LEVER."

I SAY IT IS THE SAME SMALL PLASTIC FLIMSY PART KNOWN AS THE "SHIFTER INTERLOCK LEVER "THAT BROKE. JUST AS IN THESE OTHER VEHICLES COVERED BY THIS RECALL.

WHY ARE THERE NO REPLACEMENT PARTS AVAILABLE WHEN THEY KNOW THERE IS A PRESENT DANGER TO THE DRIVERS LIVES? WHY SEND OUT NOTICES IF THERE IS NO RESOLUTION TO THE THREAT? DOES NO ONE CARE ABOUT SAVING DRIVERS LIVES?
