The Evaporative Canister was recalled for Dodge Challenger 2014 in 2021. The car was taken to the Chrysler Dodge Dealership and they confirmed the repair. November 2023 the engine light came on. Another mechanic completed a smoke test and determined the evaporative canister to be faulty. Both Chrysler Dodge Dealership and Chrysler Corporate office refused to remedy the issue, despite this being a recall. A faulty evaporative canister is a safety issue due to emitting additional pollution and adding to the green house effect.

On 2/25/23 we started noticing the smell of gasoline around the 2014 dodge challenger, so we stated looking around the gas cap and down around the gas tank and noticed a small few drops of gasoline on the ground near the gas tank. But Didn't notice exactly where the leak was coming from the tank or around the tank. So keep an eye out over the next week then we started noticing a bigger drip mark. We are not driving the vehicle due to leak from gas tank for fear of explosion and fire. We sent the car to our mechanics to check it out. He said the tank was leaking due to being warped, this was not the first time he had seen this problem in the 2014 dodge challengers. He said we will need to replace the tank. We are very concerned with this problem, we enjoy our dodge and are considering buy a new one when the time comes, but will have to reconsider with this type of problem looming. So we parked the car outside and away from the house for fear of fire danger.

Driving car and the gas pedal quit working and coasted in gas station parking lot. Waited for a family member, after 15 minutes I drove a 1/2 mile to work. Upon parking, I reversed to align better, and the throttle went out again along with horn going off and the windows going up and down. In this time all lights were flashing on dash. It was taken to mechanic, who worked for Dodge for 14 years and he said this is a problem with many chysler, Dodge, and Jeep vehicles. He is replacing the lipm to correct the problem. I believe this has been recalled in many other mopar vehicles and is unacceptable as this is my teenage's car. I pos to the CEO of Dodge to put his child behind the wheel of this car. What if this tipm burns/melts the board again? no warning, my child was on way to work on a busy road, speed limit 55mph and it a gas station was not to her right, who knows what the outcome could have been the car would not go and there was no shoulder either. You can do the speculation. I have not received invoice yet but the price for tow and fix is $751.

I have been trying to resolve recall UB4 for the evaporative emissions canister since 6/4/2020. Since that time I've been "put on an waiting list" for the part needed to resolve the recall. Initially I was told that it would be 3 or 4 months wait for my place in on the list. I began following up with the dealership on 9/22/2020 at which time I was told to call back in 2 weeks and they would be able to order the part and schedule the repair. On 10/2/2020 I called again and was told the same thing. On 10/3/2020 I called the number on the reminder card that I received on 102/2020 and was told the parts were in short supply and "it's a mess". I agree, I don't think Chrysler is taking this recall seriously because it shouldn't take 4 months, and counting, to resolve an issue. The dealership that I've been communicating with is chapman Dodge Chrysler Jeep, at 3175 E. sahara ave, las vegas, nv 89104. Phone 702-457-1061.

With less than 30,000 miles we noticed a strong gasoline odor inside and around the vehicle. Suspecting that the fuel odor was related to the UB4 recall for the evaporative emissions canister we took to vehicle to a local dealer ship. The problem was found to be a cracked plastic fitting that connects the fuel fill tube with the fuel tank. The remedy being replacement of the fuel tank at a cost of over $2600. The vehicle has never been abused or in an accident so, it is my opinion that the fuel tank and fill tube are a poor design and could fail causing extreme harm. The dealership did take photos of the cracked part but I do not have copies of them. The repairs were completed at chapman Chrysler Jeep, located at 930 auto show drive, henderson nv 89014. Phone 702-558-3000.

2014 Dodge Challenger srt with 17505 miles on it from new. Without warning, fuel pump cut out while driving on highway at 65 mph; motor died and the car shut down (including power steering). Luckily, was able to coast to stop on highway shoulder without crash. Had it not been a weekend with light traffic, could have been very bad. Fuel pump diagnosis provided by dealer two-days later after car was towed to shop.

Exterior lights flash constantly when car is parked and turned off. Sometimes the lights don't flash, they simply will not turn off at all after car is turned off. Has had a relay replaced 3 times since the car was purchased at the end of 2014, the issue described has killed the battery numerous times. Nowadays the interior lights flash constantly as well when the car is turned on. No recall has been issues on this VIN but this 4 year old car with 65000 miles has been worked on 6 times in just the last two years due to countless issues that include the worst and most persistent issue, being the faulty lighting. Other issues include the oxygen sensor malfunctioning resulting in the engine rattling when slowing down or accelerating and high fuel consumption ( a full gas tank would be empty within three days driving locally in a five mile radius) as well as traction control failing resulting in near accidents.

High speed/acceleration/and casual speed stalling. Freeway speed causes stalling/buckling hesitation, the engine light will go on, and the car will continue to reduce speed until it is stopped/off. After a short time (up to two days), the engine light will go off before I get to the service center, which leads to the dealership telling me "if we cannot re- create the problem, then we cannot fix it." The problem has happened over 10 times, and has now progressed to happened with a casual/ or isle speed as well. The level of severity has also increased as well as the time frame of the stalling

5 days after purchasing a brand new Challenger, while on the way to work the engine light came on and about 2 minutes after the car shut off while in the carpool lane going bout 63 miles/hr. The car was reading about 200 miles to empty. The fuel sensors /pumps were not working and had to be replaced. At idle it runs rough, was compared to like vehicle the idle is not correct. The mileage per gallon is way under the advertised. Advertised fuel economy showing 21 mpg combined city/hwy. We get about 16 mpg city/hwy. We had nothing but trouble since we purchased the vehicle and no one is taking responsibility for the issues as the car seems to be a lemon. We had it in the shop 4 times now. We purchased a brand new car so that we wouldn't have issues. Very upset, frustrated, unhappy.
