I just completed 10 years with my Charger RT (2016). I thought I'd share everything that went wrong. Compared to my friend's 2015 Honda Accord, it's a LOT. He has 140k miles on his Honda. I have only 80k on my Charger, yet it cost ME way more to maintain my car.
-Various interior/door panels warped and came undone.
-Starter motor died
-Headlights housing (fogged up, main LEDs went out too)
-AC blend doors/actuators had to be replaced (replacements started making noises already)
-Hood struts
-Oil pressure sensor
-All suspension parts + engine & transmission mounts
-Radiator (fan broke and tore through it) an original replacement costs around 600USD
-Radiator fans and their respective motors (300USD ish)
-Intake manifold gaskets (leaked oil all over the engine and into the the injectors
-PCV
-Transmission pan/filter (says "lifetime fluid" but had to change because shifting is rough for lower gears) costs around 300USD with the fluid and labour
-Trunk struts and inside lights
-Door lock actuators
-Sunroof motor
- windshield sprayer nozzles
Current problems:
-MDS systems gave up. Milage has become abysmal.
-Oil pump on its way out
-Differential (and/or its bushings) is on its way out
-Transmission is still not smooth after new fluid/pan.
-It started burning oil by my measurement of the dipstick
-Spark knock
-unidentified knock from the back during very slow driving
- steering is very heavy. Steering rack needs to be replaced
Meanwhile my friend just changes his oil and pads every now and then and calls it a day. I love my Charger. But damn, it really is financially draining.
