Buying a used 2020 Dodge Charger? Check these 3 recalls first
The headline item is a critical recall for curtain airbags that may rupture, and the same area dominates unverified owner reports to NHTSA, where 36 of 57 complaints are filed under air bags. Two lesser recalls cover a windshield that may not be glued properly and, on Pursuit police models, a backup camera that blanks in stealth mode. Electrical and engine complaints appear in single digits. Reported totals include 10 crashes, two fires and seven injuries.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Get dealer proof the curtain airbag rupture recall was completed
- Confirm whether this is a Pursuit model with the camera recall
- Inspect windshield edges for leaks, wind noise or resealing work
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Dodge dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
