Auburn Hills, MI – June 27, 2025 – Stellantis (NYSE:STLA), which owns the Dodge brand, is recalling 8,390 2024-2025 Dodge Charger electric cars that may fail to emit sound alerts to warn pedestrians and other vehicles. The defect increases the risk of a crash and injury.
Recall summary
The affected electric cars are equipped with exterior amplifiers that generate a sound to warn nearby pedestrians and vehicles of their otherwise silent approach. Due to a software error, this safety feature may fail to engage when needed.
Recall risks
If the electric vehicle does not emit a warning sound, the surrounding pedestrians and motorists may not notice it, which ups the chances of a crash.
Other Dodge recalls
In May 2025, Dodge Hornet SUVs were recalled because their rearview cameras could fail to show an image while backing up.
In December 2024, Stellantis recalled more than 300,000 RAM pickups due to inoperable safety features.
The repair
The dealers will update the amplifier’s software free of charge.
The owners should receive their notifications by July 10, 2025.
