How reliable is a Dodge Charger?
My son really wants a Dodge Charger for his first car but I’m worried that it won’t be a very reliable choice for him. Do Dodge Chargers last for a long time without breaking down?

The
Dodge Charger
has a mediocre score in terms of reliability. While its reliability rating isn’t particularly low, it’s definitely rated near the bottom compared to other full-size cars.While most necessary repairs for the Dodge Charger are often more severe, it won’t require those repairs very frequently. As a result, the Charger has an average annual repair cost of $652, which is normal for a car in that class.
Unfortunately, the Charger probably isn’t the best choice for a first car. This is because the Charger has a high top speed, so your son will be able to drive very fast without practicing in a slower vehicle first. Additionally, the Charger doesn’t have much room for passengers, so any friends that he wants to drive around will have to squeeze.
Whether you choose the Charger or another vehicle, the
Jerry
app can help you find an insurance policy to protect your son. With Jerry, it’s quick and easy to find the best rate available on the coverage you need. Download the app to learn more.View full answer
