What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 dodge challenger. While driving at approximately 20 MPH attempting to engage the brakes, the vehicle made a grinding sound and failed to stop. As a result, the contact's vehicle crashed into a parked vehicle and the air bag failed to deploy. A police report was filed and the contact sustained unknown injuries that required medical attention. The vehicle was towed to a body shop, where it was determined that there was no brake fluid in the reservoir causing the brakes to seize.
Car turned off while driving for the 9th time. Rapid automatic down shift of gears while turning left then to right. Green light, aprox 45 MPH, taking left turn. Wrong way. Hit brakes hard, turned wheel to right. Car died after wheel began turning to right/during turn. Lost power steering and power brakes. Very difficult to: turn, stop, and restart. Vehicle did not store any codes. Dodge/chrysler says this is "not serious" because there are no error codes saved in the car and they cannot duplicate the failure.
