Most common problems:

Oil consumption

The 2011 Dodge Challenger with a V8 engine is known to have issues with excessive oil consumption. This can lead to low oil levels and potential engine damage if not monitored and maintained properly.

Timing chain issues

Some models with the 5.7L HEMI V8 engine may experience timing chain problems, which can cause poor engine performance and potentially severe engine damage if the chain breaks.

Engine misfires

Misfires can occur due to ignition coil or spark plug failures, which are relatively common in this model. This can result in rough idling, poor acceleration, and reduced fuel efficiency.

Cooling system problems

Cooling system issues, such as radiator leaks or water pump failures, are common in this model year. These problems can lead to engine overheating and significant engine damage if not addressed promptly.

Transmission problems

The automatic transmission in the 2011 Dodge Challenger can sometimes experience shifting issues or complete failure, which can affect the overall drivability of the vehicle.

Harmonic balancer failure

The harmonic balancer, which helps to reduce engine vibrations, can fail in these models. This can lead to engine vibrations and potential damage to other engine components.

Exhaust manifold leaks

Exhaust manifold leaks are a known issue with this model, causing a ticking noise from the engine bay and potentially allowing exhaust gases to enter the cabin.

Fuel system issues

Problems with the fuel system, such as fuel pump failures or clogged fuel injectors, can lead to poor engine performance, difficulty starting, and reduced fuel efficiency.
