Positive Review

"Love the "get-up and go" in this car."

Previously owned a does edgfe, mice vehicle but didn't quite love it. The first time I heard the charger start with remote keyless entry, I had goose bumps all over. Before this, though, test drove a mustang and was not happy. Fell in love with my charger!

Critical Review

"Slow Money Pit"

If you drive this car like a normal human being on good roads, I'm sure it would be just fine, maybe even 9 or 10 out of 10 material. I'm a 19 year old kid that drives my car harder than I should and I drive on country roads often. I have a lead foot and this car is fun, but not thrilling. The power leaves more to be desired, although it will sound good with an aftermarket exhaust (I have a magnaflow cat back dual exhaust setup with chrome tips). I'm not sure if it's the mediocre roads I drive on regularly or the way I drive or just dodge / the car itself, but the front end on my car is absolute garbage. Replaced ball joints when purchased it for a pretty $1100 (dual ball joints both sides isn't cheap), and in the 25,000 miles I've had it, I've replaced three tie rods, a steering shaft, sway bar linkages, and brakes. The car drives oddly loose when everything is new and working well, and drives as if the suspension is pretty stiff because you rattle through every little bump in the road. Maybe the people that had it before me drove it roughly, but between three different mechanics I've worked with for different things, they all say everything checks out fine. The engine, I will say, is bulletproof. I don't hold anything back, and the charger just takes it and goes. Again, power is a little lackluster, but you can count on this car to get you there.

2006 Charger SXT

Original owner. 203,000 miles and still humming along. No major repairs except for the suspension. Replaced all parts at least once and some twice. Fortunately I have a buddy with a hoist who has done a lot of work, saving me hundreds. Still can't get rid of it. Runs well and no reason to give it away and spend 30-40 k on a new vehicle. Maintained properly and have had the five spoke wheels refinished twice. Car looks great and runs great. I guess I've been lucky as the trans and engine are fine. Suspension was a pain I'll have to admit.

Years of Excellent Performance!
Pros

I have received many compliments on this vehicle

Cons

It's a 2010 model, more frequent issues.

My personal experience with my 2010 Dodge Charger, which I purchased used in 2011.. was amazing! Along with regular maintenance checkups and smooth driving on my part, this vehicle gave me absolutely no serious issues at all from the time I've owned it. I'm still driving my Dodge Charger today at 97,521 miles. At this time though, it's beginning to show some signs of wear and tear on the engine and electrical system. I have a great mechanic whom I've known for several years. He suggested that it may be time to start thinking about purchasing another or new vehicle because of these very issues.

Reliable and Solid Vehicle
Pros

Powerful drivetrain

Cons

Poor on gas mileage

Bought this car used with 20K miles. It’s now over 90K and is still solid and reliable. I did have a radiator fan issue but after that was replaced no other issues. Love the SRT line of vehicles.
