2025 Dodge Charger Electrical Problems

Your 2025 Dodge Charger GT EV has experienced recurring electrical and operational failures since July 2025, including getting stuck in Park, dashboard malfunctions, and electronic failures—especially after charging. After multiple dealership repairs and a parts replacement, the problems persist, with new symptoms like loud knocking and ticking noises appearing after charging. The dealership's most recent service was only a hard reset, which did not address the underlying issue. Resolving this will likely require a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation and replacement of the faulty electrical or charging system components causing these failures.

Your vehicle's dashboard showed multiple warning lights and entered a limited power mode where the accelerator pedal stopped working normally and the car only slowly increased speed. After restarting, the accelerator worked again but regenerative braking (which normally helps slow the car when you lift off the pedal) stopped working in all three settings. While you were able to safely pull over, suddenly losing acceleration control is a serious safety concern that needs immediate diagnosis.

Your new 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona EV experienced dangerously overheated rear wheels that glowed red and produced steam after just 2 miles of normal driving with your infant in the car — this happened without hard braking or aggressive driving. Additionally, your vehicle has multiple electrical failures including a key fob that frequently won't unlock doors or open the trunk, and the vehicle sometimes stays powered on even after pressing the power button. You've stopped driving the car due to fire risk and thermal management concerns, and the manufacturer has delayed inspection for over 4 weeks. The issue likely involves the electric motor's thermal management system, cooling system components, or brake-by-wire electrical controls that may need complete diagnostic testing and potential replacement of cooling system components or brake hardware.

Your car is showing multiple warning messages about the electrical system, regenerative battery, and transmission, and it's shutting down unexpectedly and failing to start. The vehicle has been towed twice (at 807 miles and 2707 miles) and continues to have intermittent starting problems, but the dealership says they can't reproduce the issue. The problem likely involves diagnosing and repairing the electrical system, battery, or engine control modules that are causing these warning messages and shutdown events.

The trunk will fail after 3 to 5 attempts to open it. The car is available for inspection. Anything or anyone locked in the trunk cannot be retrieved by exterior trunk release for an undetermined amount of time. The issue has been confirmed by the Dodge dealer and the manufacturer Stellantis. The manufacture Stellantis has sent a representative and they have confirmed the issue. There are no warning signs the trunk will fail.
