I have a 2016 V6. Very quick and durable. The extra cooling systems keep it that way . My husband is a mechanic, so he new what to look at. Always check the underbody pinch rails and integrated sub frame. A lot of these cars have stress damage. They are unibody after all. Wich is why they go to auction at half the mileage of a equivalent crown vic.
own two crown vics 08 and 10 .. absolutely love them. one has 9000 idling hours and 150,000 miles and the other 6000 idling hours and 155,000 miles no issues so far. Basically a light duty truck with a car body.. chargers are faster though....thank you for the content!

2006 - 2010 had the worst suspension issues. 2006 - 2008 5.7 hp was 345 2009 - 2015 5.7 hp was 370 2016+ 5.7 hp was 363. All engine and suspension problems were permanently cured by March of 2016, when Dodge instituted a number of extreme durability changes. The A580 transmission has been absolutely bulletproof in these cars, which is why they still use it after the retail cars went to 8-spd autos. The *only* problem they had was a fill tube o-ring failure in 2007, which resulted in a TSB. That's it.

@@jerryjefferson9933 the retail cars use either the 845 or 850RE in V6 models, and the 8HP90 or 95 in V8 models. The A580 5-spd became fleet - only in 2015. As far as durability, the A580 was used behind all V8 engines from 2005 - 2014. The 8HP-90 is currently behind the 5.7 and 6.4 engines, and the 8HP95 is behind the Hellcats, including Demon. It is also used in the new Durango V8 Pursuit, so I think we can expect to see the V8 Charger Pursuit get that transmission in 2020.

@@jrftworth fastest LT1 was the '94 at 141 mph (Michigan tests). The V8 Charger Pursuits from 2011+ are governed to 152 mph with the OEM rubber. The V6 is at 141 mph. CHP did have Chrysler test an '06 V8 and a 2013 with the limiters removed. The '06 was good for 165 mph, and the '13 managed 176 mph (both at Chrysler Chelsea, MI proving grounds). Much too fast for public roadways. In fact, a few years after the V8 Dodge reappeared, Chrysler Fleet had an article in one off the LEO periodicals that stated the agencies replying to a query from the Chrysler Police Advisory Board indicated that agencies using the V8 Dodge were averaging a 95% collar rating in pursuits. The last results I'm aware of were from 2016, and confirm the success of the Charger Pursuit program - with the additional abilities of the AWD Pursuit, the average collar rating notched up to almost 97%. The next highest numbers were 89% for the Exploder and 93% for both the Taurus and Caprice (the Exploder has lower top speed, and I suspect the Taurus and Caprice suffered from more understeer).

Mine is a 5.7L Non-Hemi Pursuit vehicle. It still is super fast and good, lol.
5.7l Hemi has plenty of power, just not a very good engine as far as reliability. The 08 and down can drop valve seats and destroy the engine. The 09+ wear out camshafts and the roller part of the lifter gets sloppy causing noise. Heads have to come off to mess with the lifters.

I got a Dodge Charger 2010 police v8 5.7 Hemi. When I got it, it had 77.000 miles on the dash, now it has 111.538 with no issues to report. The good: Extremely good power ratio, with police configuration, meaning no speed limiter. Scaring people always gives me a kick. The bad: This is a service vehicle. The past owners treated the car like shit. I found food envelopes to all sort of things when I got mine. The suspension was torn to shreds, I had to rebuild my entire front and rear suspension with shocks, pads, rotors, tie rod ends, control arms, flushed all fluids, new radiator, new hoses, tune up. It was roughly 2k on expenses doing all the work myself. Plus get 4 brand new all season tires. If you are not willing to keep with the maintenance, do not get one. I pay 5k for mine.
