TSB's are not Recalls. "Preventive" service repairs will normally not be performed under warranty if a vehicle is not exhibiting the particular symptom or problem.

For vehicles that are out of warranty, any TSB related work that is performed is usually charged at the normal dealer service rate.

On my 08 Challenger, the rubber gasket around the bottom of the windshield does not fit tight. It has gaps between the rubber and windshield. Is there a TSB or a recall for this?
 
#37 ·
Took our Challenger to the dealer where we purchased it. The body shop manager is ordering me a new part under warrenty. They have treated me right.:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Seat stitching color in 2010 B5

Brochure had stated that I would have blue stitching in seats for my 2010 B5 Blue Pearl? The center console stitching is blue, but the front seats and rear seat are gray? Any info? Picked up car lst friday eve...have not been to dealership r/t bad weather. I have other cars to drive in bad weather! :)

same here gasman last fri 10-30 picked mine up and i have blue threads in console lid none on seats, let me know what you hear

I just had the RRT-090018 - MyGig Screen Frozen update done. Not that I was having a screen problem, the dealer just opted to do that as well as replace the battery / cables. Now my Lockpick is not working and I'm not getting a return call from Coastal. :icon_evil:

Anyone else or did I just get 'lucky'?
 
#45 ·
Coastal has a track record of poor customer service. I would update to the latest MyGIG software. You have v1.220 which came out last March. v2.043 was just released and includes a lot of fixes and improvements. Dealer would not have it yet, but you can download and install it yourself.
 
#43 ·
I'll Check with dealer r/t warranty items

My R/T state plates just came in...I'll pick them up tommorrow, 5 Nov and ask service about stiching color?? I'll also ask about this front wheel spinle nut problem that chrysler knows nothing about? Hoping my 73 will be completed tomorrow aslo!

Thanks resumespeed for updating recalls...I'll print out page one and bring to dealer today! He had not heard of any recalls? Thanks again! This info is invaluable and may have saved a chally front end! :)

I just had RRT 09-073( improve drivability) done on Nov 6. Does anybody know what the improvement was. I noticed that when I push the pedal to the floor it now spins the tires. When I did this before I would just hear a chirp from the tires and gone. Does this effect traction control?
 
#51 ·
my 2010 B5 not involved in recall for hub nuts! Front end tight! I noticed the recall/bulletin on console fix for stitching color. I may just keep the blue stiching on my console:). Thanks again for valuable info!

I had trouble starting my 08 Challenger last month. I pushed the start button about 6 times before it finally started. I checked CSN J21 Hot start engine cranking and is for the 09. How about the 08 Challengers?

Hey Gang!

I have 775 miles on my 2010 rt...twice now the battery has drained completely down? The car is 2 months old...with the bad weather she sits in garage with big bro blue. Question!!! On the tach on the bottom a bunch of digital numbers come up 000039??? When i hook up the OBD II analyser there are no codes??? The battery checks out...all cells ok per battery tester!

I have not been to the dealer....I have a float charge attached now to maintain battery? Any one know why the battery is being drained? If the car sits 4 days it gets drained? I checked to ensure all is off? no lights on....ipod disconnected. When i have a day off and the weather is good I'll hit the dealership...unless someone has an idea!

You might try pulling down the back seat and seeing if the trunk light is broken and thus stuck on.

Just a thought.

USA Today is reporting the following:

WASHINGTON — Chrysler is recalling 40,131 2010 vehicles, including the Chrysler 300, Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger, Dodge Ram, Jeep Commander and Jeep Grand Cherokee to fix a faulty ignition switch module. The defect "could result in the potential for unintended vehicle movement and could increase the risk of a crash," says the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

"These vehicles may have been built with a wireless ignition node module exhibiting a binding condition of the solenoid latch," said NHTSA in its recalls summary of the problem. "The result of the defect could lead to a condition where the key may be removed from the ignition switch module prior to placing the shifter in park. This could result in the potential for unintended vehicle movement and could increase the risk of a crash."

Chrysler said it is "not aware of any confirmed accidents or injuries related to this issue," in other paperwork filed with the federal government.

Chrysler and Dodge dealers will replace the module for free. The recall is expected to begin in July. Owners may contact Chrysler at 800-853-1403.

Cuda,

Since it says "placing the shifter in park" can I assume this would only apply to automatic cars.

Challenger Recall - October 2010

Here the newest recall if anyone is interested.

Chrysler Recall 2010 Details and Contact Info

To avoid the possibility of engines catching fire, a recall has been announce for more than 26,000 Chrysler and Dodge vehicles. The Chrysler Recall includes model year 2010 Chrysler 300s, Chrysler Sebrings, Dodge Avengers, Dodge Challengers and Dodge Journeys, as well as 2011 Dodge Rams.
A defective power steering pressure hose can leak power steering fluid onto the engine, Chrysler said in their statement. A fire may occur if the engine is hot at that time. According to Chrysler officials, there are no reported incidents or accidents associated with the design problem as of late.
According to the defect report that Chrysler submitted to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), discovery of the issue occurred at a testing facility of the Yokohama Hydex (YH) in South Carolina, makers of power steering and air conditioning components. On a number of occasions, pressure hoses separated at the crimped end of the assembly during testing.
Around 26,397 Chrysler-manufactured vehicles produced between late June and late August of this are subject to the recall. Chrysler will notify the owners of affected vehicles. Afterwards, Chrysler dealers will replace the power steering pressure hoses free of charge.
Chrysler hopes to avoid customers suffering injuries and contacting a personal injury lawyer due to their miscue. Recall notices will be served to Chrysler owners this month. Customers may also contact the company at 1-800-853-1403.

@ResumeSpeed - Can you tell us where you got this TSB info? I see the links are to WKJeeps.com, but I can't seem to find a full listing for Challenger TSB's on that site. I'd like to find a site that lists all Chally TSB's so that I can setup an RSS feed in Outlook. That way I get notified when this site updates their TSB list. I'll post a how-to for others if I can do this, as I'm sure we'd all like to be aware of service bulletins & recalls for our cars.
