BOTTOMING OUT AT LESS THAN 5 MPH UNDER NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS, SEVERE GRUNTING/GROANING WHEN BACKING OUT OF PARKING SPOT AND HITTING BRAKES, FREQUENT ALIGNMENT NEEDED (EVERY 2 - 3K MILES), FRAME BOLTS NEED PERIODIC TORQUING. MULTIPLE SERVICING UNDER WARRANTY ON SUSPENSION. CAR NOW HAS 57000 MILES AND AGAIN HAS WARRANTY REPAIRS FOR SUSPENSION ISSUES AND NOW THEY TELL ME THAT REAR FRAME NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE BUSHINGS ARE SHOT - PRICED AT SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS - STATING BUSHINGS ARE NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THESE ARE SERIOUS DEFECTS.

I HAVE NOT HAD A COMPLETE FAILURE. WAITING ON THAT TO HAPPEN. I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2005 DODGE MAGNUM SXT WITH V6, AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION IN 2005 FROM A DEALERSHIP. IT HAD APPROXIMATELY 36 MILES ON IT. I HAVE NOT HAD THE PULLING TO THE RIGHT EVERYONE ELSE HAD, BUT IT DOES MAKE A FUNNY SCRUBBING SOUND WHILE DRIVING AS IF THE TIRE WAS RUBBING AGAINST THE CAR ON THE RIGHT REAR PASSENGER SIDE AND SEVERAL OTHER PROBLEMS THAT ARE COMMON. I HAVE DEPRESSED THE BRAKE AND FELT VIBRATIONS FROM PEDAL ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE CAR DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ABLE TO STOP COMPLETELY. I EVEN GOT OUT TO LOOK,THINKING I HIT SOMETHING. A FEW MONTHS AGO, THE POWER OUTLET LOCATED INSIDE THE ASTRAY STOPPED WORKING. IT BLEW A FUSE, I REPLACED IT. THEN, TWO WEEKS AGO, THE POWER OUTLET IN THE CONSOLE STOPPED WORKING. JUST TWO DAYS AGO, THE BATTERY WENT DEAD FOR THE SECOND TIME IN THREE MONTHS. I REPLACED THE BATTERY AGAIN. NOW ALL THE SUDDEN THE AC/HEATER STOPPED WORKING. YOU CAN HEAR IT TRYING TO COME ON, BUT THE FAN MOTOR DOESN'T SEEM TO BE COMING ON. WE'VE NOTICED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS SEEM TO SURGE AT NIGHT. I WILL BE TAKING OUR CAR IN TO THE DEALERSHIP, ALONG WITH COPIES OF COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER CONSUMERS.

IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING IS ABOUT TO FALL APART EVERY BUMP FEEL LIKE ITS HITTING THE FRAME AND POPPING SOUND WHEN THE WHEEL IS TURNED ALL THE WAY. I BOUGHT NEW TIRES BECAUSE OF THE SHORT LIFE THEY SHOWED AT 30,000 MILES IT SOUNDED BETTER AND FELT BETTER FOR ABOUT A 3 WEEKS OR SO AND BACK TO THE SAME PROBLEMS.

2005 DODGE MAGNUM, AT 40,000 THE TIE RODS WENT ON MY CAR. KIND OF STRANGE BECAUSE OUT OF ALL THINGS TO GO ON A CAR, THE TIE RODS AREN'T USUALLY ONE OF THEM, ESPECIALLY AFTER 40,000 MILES. SO I WENT TO THE INTERNET TO CHECK IT OUT AND I FOUND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE MAGNUM TIE RODS BEING DEFECTIVE. WHY WASN'T THERE A RECALL ON THIS? I HAD THEM REPLACED WITH A SUPERIOR AFTER MARKET TIE ROD. I DIDN'T WANT TO USE OEM FOR THE FEAR OF THIS HAPPENING AGAIN AFTER 40,000 MILES. IT'S A KNOWN FACT THAT THE TIE RODS ON THESE CAR, AND THE FRONT SUSPENSION IN GENERAL, ARE DEFECTIVE. YET CHRYSLER DID NOT DO A RECALL. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. WHAT CAN I DO?

THE FRONT TIRES ARE CUPPING EVERY 3,000 MILES. DEALER HAS CHECKED ALIGNMENT, ROTATED THE TIRES AND REPLACED THEM FOR FREE 4 TIMES WITH 2 DIFFERENT BRANDS OF TIRES. I NOW HAVE 30,000 MILES AND THE TIRES ARE WORN OUT AGAIN AND THE DEALER HAS TOLD ME THAT IS JUST THE WAY IT IS AND TO STOP COMING TO THEM TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. IT HAS BEEN QUITE RAINY WHERE I LIVE AND I FEEL THAT THE TIRE DAMAGE IS NOW PUTTING ME AT RISK. THE ABILITY OF THE TIRES TO PERFORM IN RAIN SOAKED ROADS HAS DIMINISHED SIGNIFICANTLY BECAUSE OF THE UNUSUAL WEARING AND I FEEL THAT IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE IN ANY INCLEMENT WEATHER. I REALLY HOPE THIS ISSUE CAN BE RESOLVED BEFORE THERE IS A FATALITY. SINCE THE TIRES ARE SO BADLY WORN ON THE OUTER EDGES THE VEHICLE VIBRATES AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND SEEMS QUITE UNSTABLE. ANY LITTLE BUMP IN THE HIGHWAY CAUSES THE STEERING WHEEL TO JERK VIOLENTLY. I AM NOT SURE IF THIS IS CAUSED BY THE WORN TIRES OR AN INHERENT DESIGN FLAW IN THE FRONT END. I KNOW FROM RESEARCHING THE INTERNET THAT THERE ARE MANY OWNERS THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.

NO FAILURE, WAITING FOR THE EVENT. VEHICLE PULLS TO THE RIGHT AND CONTINUES TO DO SO AFTER REPEATED FRONT END ALIGNMENTS PER CHRYSLER SPECIFICATIONS. THIS VEHICLE HAS A SERIOUS POTENTIAL PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED PROACTIVELY RATHER THAN AFTER INCIDENT OCCURS. I WOULD RECOMMEND SEARCHING THE INTERNET FOR HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. I'VE USED MAY 2005 AS THE INCIDENT DATE WHEN I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. WHAT LEAD ME TO THIS SITE - FRUSTRATION!

I PURCHASED MY NEW 2005 DODGE MAGNUM R/T ON 12/20/04. MANUFACTURER DATE 9/04. VEHICLE CONTINUES TO PULL RIGHT. HAS PULLED TO THE RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING. MUST KEEP CONSTANT PRESSURE TO THE LEFT ON THE STEERING WHEEL. IF I LET UP, VEHICLE TRAVELS RIGHT. LANE DOES NOT MAKE DIFFERENCE. WITHOUT CONSTANT PRESSURE TO LEFT, VEHICLE WILL TRAVEL ACROSS 3 LANES TO RIGHT AND KEEP GOING RIGHT. FIRST COMPLAINT AT 4400 MILES 5/05. DEALER REALIGNED. SECOND COMPLAINT 7900 MILES. DEALER REALIGNED. THIRD COMPLAINT 15900 MILES. BOTH FRONT TIRES SHOWING EXTREME WEAR ON OUTSIDE. TREAD IN THAT AREA ON DRIVER FRONT ALMOST GONE. REQUESTED TIRE REPLACEMENT. DEALER TOLD ME THEY CONTACTED DAIMLER CHRYSLER ABOUT MY COMPLAINT. TWO NEW TIRES WERE MOUNTED, AT NO CHARGE TO ME, ON REAR OF VEHICLE. OLDER REAR TIRES MOVED TO FRONT. REAR TIRES DID NOT SHOW ANY ABNORMAL WEAR. VEHICLE CAME WITH CONTINENTAL TIRES. REPLACEMENT TIRES ALSO CONTINENTALS. VEHICLE ALIGNED AGAIN. ON DRIVE HOME, VEHICLE CONTINUED TO PULL TO RIGHT. TOOK VEHICLE TO REPUTABLE, NATIONAL COMPANY FOR A COURTESY ROAD TEST. THEY CONFIRMED VEHICLE PULLS TO THE RIGHT. RETURNED TO DEALER A COUPLE OF HOURS LATER WITH THE COMPLAINT THAT THE VEHICLE STILL PULLING TO RIGHT. MANAGEMENT IS CONTACTING THE "DODGE TECHNICIANS" TO SEE WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT MY VEHICLE. I WAS TOLD BY THIS DEALER THAT THEY HAD EXPERIENCED SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH ANOTHER 05 MAGNUM, THAT THEY WERE TOLD BY THE "DODGE TECHNICIANS" THAT THE VEHICLES ARE WITHIN SPECS AND WITHIN TOLERANCES." WITHIN TOLERANCES OF WHAT? I KNOW THAT IF I LET GO OF THE WHEEL, OR DO NOT APPLY CONSTANT PRESSURE TO THE LEFT, THIS VEHICLE WILL RUN OFF THE ROAD! THE EXTREME TIRE WEAR I EXPERIENCED WAS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE FRONT END OF THIS VEHICLE. AT PRESENT MY VEHICLE HAS 16000 MILES ON IT. LEFT FRONT TIRE THAT WAS REMOVED WAS EXTREMELY SCARY AS TO HOW IT HAD WORN SO BADLY. I AM NOT IN POSSESSION OF THE REMOVED TIRES.
