Dodge Recalls Electric Charger Over Missing Warning Sounds

Dodge Recalls Electric Charger Over Missing Warning Sounds



Dodge issued a recall for 8,390 Charger Daytona electric muscle cars from model years 2024-2025 because they don’t emit sounds required to warn pedestrians of their presence.

Electric vehicles (EVs) can be exceptionally quiet. Federal law requires them to emit sounds to warn pedestrians they’re present. But Dodge says some Charger Daytona models “may have been built with amplifiers with an incomplete software upload, which may prevent the emission of exterior sound.”

Dealers can fix the problem with a simple software update.

Recall repairs are always free.

Automakers recall many cars to fix safety defects, sometimes more than once. They try to contact every owner to ask them to bring the vehicle in for repair, but they rarely reach them all. Millions of vehicles on American roads need free recall repairs. To find out if your car is one of them, check the easy VIN tool at our recall center.
