Most common problems:

Faulty dynamic brake support (dbs)

DBS may fail to activate properly, leading to reduced braking assistance in emergency situations.

Engine knocking

High-performance V8 engines like the one in the 2017 Dodge Challenger are prone to knocking, especially if not maintained properly or if low-quality fuel is used.

Oil consumption

V8 engines can consume more oil, requiring frequent oil level checks and top-ups.

Cooling system issues

High horsepower engines generate a lot of heat, which can strain the cooling system, potentially leading to overheating.

Ignition coil failure

V8 engines with high output can experience ignition coil issues, leading to misfires and reduced performance.

Fuel efficiency

The powerful V8 engine tends to have poor fuel efficiency, which can be a concern for some owners.

Exhaust manifold leaks

The exhaust system on high-performance engines can develop leaks, leading to increased noise and potential performance loss.

Timing chain wear

Over time, the timing chain can wear out, leading to engine performance issues and potentially catastrophic failure if not addressed.

Transmission issues

The high torque from the engine can put extra strain on the transmission, leading to potential issues such as slipping or delayed shifting.

Electronic throttle control (etc) problems

Issues with the ETC can lead to unresponsive or erratic throttle behavior.

Differential wear

The powerful engine can lead to increased wear on the differential, especially if the vehicle is driven aggressively.
