Worth knowing
- 2010: owner complaints spike (299, mostly the engine).

- 2012: owner complaints spike (253, mostly the electrical system).
- 2013: owner complaints spike (179, mostly the electrical system).
- It is heavy and feels more like a cruiser than a sports car. Modified or hard-driven V8 cars are common, so look for records.
The trim we'd park in our garage
Target the R/T: its 5.7-liter Hemi V8 is the value sweet spot over the V6 SXT. Choose 2015 or newer for the redesigned cabin, eight-speed automatic and larger touchscreen.
