2012 Dodge Challenger Steering problems

My car has come to a complete halt several times when I pressed the gas trying to get onto the speedway it will just have no power to it like it's in neutral and I will have to hurry up and get over to the side and turn it back into park and then back into drive and pray that it goes. It doesn't kick into gear like it should all the time my battery is always a hit or miss. I just spent $1000 on repairs and my power won't even work. It's an electric. and pray that it goes. It doesn't kick into gear like it should...

All of a sudden my power steering went out it's hard to steer the vehicle while making a left turn, on a city street with a lot of traffic and pedestrians. The road was dry. No indications that the car was having an issue prior to that. I checked the power steering fluid and the belt I don't hear a sound. I've asked several people about this issue and a lot of people have reported this as being a problem with the vehicle. I was in the middle of a turn and the power steering went out which caused me to almost hit...

I initially got my alternator changed by my own mechanic before there was any recall on the alternator. Then some time last year 2018 I took my car in for the recall on the air bags. While my car was at dodge they notified me that the recall on my alternator still hadn't been cleared since I never changed it with dodge so I was like what the heck why not just get a brand new one through dodge this time while they're repairing whatever needed to be done with my air bags. Fast forward to july of 2019 I took my car in...

Battery was replaced because it went dead. Lost power steering. Windows going up and down on their own running down new battery. Found fuse that runs side mirrors and power steering to be good but is showing the fuse box to be grounding out when fuse is removed. I have heard of alot of issues with the windows on this car. Nobody can seem to locate the problem. The car was sitting still and engine not turned on. If I leave windows open, weather damage is done. Dangerous to drive without power steering. Afraid it might catch on fire due to the grounding out. There are no recalls referring to this issue. Why and what can I do about getting this resolved when mechanics can't find the problem?

Replace hydraulic power steering pump after the storm now my car is hard to turn it is bad in parking lots. I have to use two hands and I'm a guy

Pulling out of my driveway, steering became very tight turning to the left,with a sound of rubber on rubber in the front end and steering column. When car was straight and accelerating forward the steering became normal. Progressively, the steering upon slowing down and turning corners was still to the right and less stiff to the left. My car has the electronic hydraulic power steering system. I was told that I needed a new ps pump at a cost of $1,434 for the part alone.

Heavy rust on steering and control arms and other structural joints and welds. *Tr

I was driving in the rain in the middle of downtown houston texas, when I heard something pop/snap then my car started pulling very heavy to the right (extremely hard to steer). When I pulled over, I got out of my car and saw that the passenger side front end was almost touching the ground. When I was finally able to take a good look behind my tire, I saw that the strut plate and strut rod had snapped into, making my car inoperable. This malfunction could be due to a weak weld or something of the sort. But I do...

While driving home with my 11yr old son my car started making a high pitch sound. Then all the dashboard lights came on and the car stalled. Due to no electrical power, I couldn't use my emergency lights. To prevent rear end crash, I had to hand signal to cars to go around. Vehicle was towed to my home. Had the car diagnosed and was told the alternator had went bad. The cost for parts and labor is 900-1000$. I have not had the vehicle fixed. I contacted chrysler and was told the list was still being compiled of vin's affected and they would begin to notify customers dec 5th. Chrysler is not reimbursing for any towing or rental car expenses due to this recall. *Tr

I had observed a whining sound for several weeks before the incident. It was like a power steering pump without any fluid in it. I tried to listen under the hood to locate the sound but it seemed like it was coming from low in the engine bay on the left side, looking at it. My wife left for work and as she pulled off, the noise was very loud and worse than before. I hoped she was going to be alright and make it to work. She called me just as she was getting to work, when the vehicle abs and traction control...

I have a hard time steering my car. I have the electrical hydraulic power steering on my car. The owner manual does not match the car. I have after market wheels on my car and they have been on there for over two years now. Never had any problems until now. The dealership say its my after market rims but a lot of dodge have after market rims and does not have any problems and have a lot more miles on there car than I have on mines. I think its a issue with the power steering and dodge will not take owner ship of it. *Tr

I was driving down the road and my instrument panel started going crazy, lights were coming on, the speedometer was jumping up and down, then my radio and air conditioner shut down, then I lost power steering, and about 30 seconds later the car died in traffic on a busy highway. It was towed to the dealership and the next day I was told that first I needed to authorize the purchase for a battery so they could get it to come on, which I did. They called back later and told me my problem was that my ignition...

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 dodge challenger. The contact stated that while driving 30 mph, the steering failed causing the vehicle to veer into oncoming traffic. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where the failure could not be replicated. The failure recurred several times and was taken to the dealer where the front hub bearings and rack and pinion were replaced. The contact also stated that while driving, a snapping sound could be heard and steering control decreased. The vehicle was returned to the dealer and is...

Squeaking or electric motor whirring noise at low speed maneuvers such as a parking lot or backing out of a garage.. I took my car in for it's 1st oil change and tire rotation mainly because of the low price & I wanted to check on the steering noise too. I also had a clicking noise in the passenger wheel when making a left turn into the carport also which they claimed they never heard anything, even though I was looking around the lot while they were and heard my car running and one of the techs outside the car...

At slow speed I can hear a winding noise, (noise sounds like powering steering fluid is low, even though it is full and no leaks). You can hear the noise at low speed for example backing up and turning the wheel (even if the wheel is only turned a quarter of a turn) or when you have to turn in to a driveway. *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 dodge challenger. The contact stated that the front passenger side wheel detached from the vehicle. The contact had the vehicle towed to the dealer. The dealer would not inform the contact of what caused the failure, but the tow truck driver advised the contact that the tie rod was fractured. The failure and the current mileage was 14.

The components causing issue are suspension and steering components, such as the struts, strut plates, control arm, bushings and tie rod ends, the axles, rear suspension arms, and the u-joint connectors for the drive shaft, photographs have been taken by criswell dodge in gaithersburg, md. *Tr
