NHTSA campaign 24V112000: Dodge Challenger parking brake recall
Chrysler (FCA US, LLC) is recalling certain 2023 Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, and Dodge Challenger vehicles. The parking brake may be improperly adjusted, which can result in a vehicle roll away.

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2022 Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger, and Chrysler 300 vehicles.

Consequence: Inoperative TPMS sensors will not alert the driver to low tire pressure.

Either of these scenarios can result in tire failure and increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy per NHTSA (as of 2026-08-27): Dealers will inspect and replace the TPMS sensors, as necessary, free of charge.

Other sports cars to weigh against the Dodge Challenger. Recall counts cover different model-year spans and are not a reliability ranking.
How many recalls does the Dodge Challenger have?
As of NHTSA records retrieved 2026-08-27, NHTSA lists 15 recall campaigns for the Dodge Challenger, model years 2016–2024. A recall applies to specific VIN ranges, variants, trims or build dates, so a particular vehicle may be affected by all, some, or none of them, and a campaign count is not a reliability ranking. Whether an open recall is a safety risk depends on the campaign, so read the NHTSA entry for the VIN. Each campaign below shows the remedy NHTSA records, which may be a dealer or service-center repair, an over-the-air software update, or, for some campaigns, a repurchase. This page details the most recent campaigns; the full record for any VIN is at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
What should an inspector check on a used Dodge Challenger?
Beyond the standard pre-purchase checks, the recall history for this model concentrates in: electrical system, power train, tires, engine and engine cooling, back over prevention, service brakes. An inspector documents the visible and operational condition of those systems without disassembly; internal parts, software-only issues and whether a recall remedy was performed are VIN-lookup questions, not inspection findings.
Can a pre-purchase inspection tell me whether a Dodge Challenger recall was done?
No. Whether a recall repair was performed is recorded against the VIN, so NHTSA's lookup at nhtsa.gov/recalls (or the manufacturer's own) is the authoritative check. Run it before you travel. The inspection covers what a VIN lookup cannot: the physical condition of the vehicle in front of you.
Can you inspect a Dodge Challenger at a dealer, a private seller, or out of state?
Yes. The inspector usually travels to the vehicle at the seller's location — a dealer lot or a private seller — and you do not need to be there. Vehicle Inspectors dispatches an independent inspector within 50 miles of any US ZIP code, widening to 150 miles if needed; more remote locations are quoted case by case. You get a photo-documented PDF report in 24–48 hours.
How much does a Dodge Challenger pre-purchase inspection cost?
A pre-purchase inspection of a Dodge Challenger through Vehicle Inspectors: Bronze $249 · Silver $349 · Gold $449. Your card is saved at booking, not charged. A hold is placed when an inspector schedules, and you are charged after the inspection is completed. If no inspector accepts within 72 hours, the request auto-cancels and nothing is charged.
