2009 DODGE CHARGER AWD
This model year
What the record shows
The 2009 Dodge Charger Awd is a large car, and the 3rd model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 2007 to 2023.
The EPA rated two configurations: engines from 3.5-litre six-cylinder to 5.7-litre eight-cylinder, 4-wheel or all-wheel drive only, a single transmission, Automatic 5-spd and running on regular gasoline.
Combined fuel economy ranges from 18 to 19 mpg depending on which one you have.
The federal record holds 1 owner complaint and 16 service bulletins for it.
Counts are reports, not rates. A complaint is something an owner chose to file; it is unverified and unadjusted for how many of these cars were sold, so the useful comparison is against other model years of the same car. Recalls and investigations carry more weight because a manufacturer or regulator acted on them.
Reading this report
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
