What is your Charger doing?
Each one opens a sheet built from the owner reports of that problem on the 2014 model year.
Is the 2014 Dodge Charger reliable?
The 2014 Dodge Charger has 320 owner complaints on file with NHTSA, close to the median of 318 for 2014 sedans on this site. Of the 10 Charger model years since 2014, it has the most complaints. Complaint counts rise with sales as well as faults, so read what owners report below before deciding.
At a glance
- Next to other model years
- Complaints filed before 2015 aren't in the files this site reads, so the 2014 count runs short and isn't compared with the model years next to it.
- Top problem
- Two problems run close. Stalling has 40 complaints and dead battery has 36, out of 320 in all. A quarter of the 33 owners who gave a mileage for stalling saw it by about 30,000 miles, and half by about 55,000.
- Crash, fire and injury reports
- 45 of the 320 complaints (14%) report a crash, a fire or an injury. The typical vehicle on this site sits at 6%, so this one runs well above it. Counted separately (one report can carry more than one), 39 reports mention a crash, 7 mention a fire and 26 people were hurt. The reports record 2 deaths. The most crash reports, 14 of 39, fall under airbag.
- Recalls behind the top problems
- Dead battery has a recall on the same system (14V-634, 17V-435 and 2 others). Stalling and power steering loss have none. A recall on the same system doesn't always cover the failure owners describe, so compare its summary with the complaints.
- When owners filed
- Filings peaked in 2019 at 52 and have dropped every year since, to 6 in 2025. So far in 2026, 5 more have come in. Filings on record start in 2015.
When each problem shows up

How this compares
320 complaints is about the median for a 2014 model on this site and about the median for a 2014 sedan. Among the 6 Charger model years here it ranks 1st for complaints. Counts follow sales volume as much as reliability, so a truck that sells 700,000 a year draws more reports than a sedan that sells 200,000.
Service bulletins for the 2014 Dodge Charger
Dodge filed 251 bulletins and other notices with NHTSA that list the 2014 Dodge Charger. 27 of them deal with a problem owners have reported on this car. Newest first.
