2016 DODGE CHARGER — Complaint #1840015
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about STRUCTURE:INTERIOR PANELS:DOOR filed September 12, 2022
NHTSA complaint #1840015 (ODI reference 11483954) concerns a 2016 DODGE CHARGER and was filed on September 12, 2022. The owner reports the failure occurred on March 12, 2022. The vehicle had 130,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Virginia based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as structure:interior panels:door, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same DODGE CHARGER cohort independently describe similar structure:interior panels:door failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2016 DODGE CHARGER shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
