Description of the problem	The first time my 11 dodge challenger messed up was january 2014. Went to start it and it wouldn't. Got towed to dealership-was told the door handled shorted out. 2nd time was in april 2014 i smelt burning rubber turned my car off and then it would not start and windows rolled down. Got towed- was told bad battery. Now the 3rd time june 2014 i was driving about 40 mph the inside of my car looked like a casino slot machine with all the lights and sounds going off! Every light on my dash flashed over and over! My seatbelt light said i didn't have my seat belt on when i did! Then my seat warmer came on and was hot as fire, then i did have to unbuckle so i did not get burned! Radio was flashing on and off. Hot air came pouring in through my vents. I literally thought my car was on fire! My gas needle kept jumping from full to empty! Car stalled 2 times before my steering wheel locked up and i had to run up into my parents neighbors yard!! After car died my gas needled stayed at f as if it were on, and my temp needle stayed between cold/hot as if the car were running. I could not open my trunk. My trunk light on tail end was flashing on and off. Of course towed again and now they say it is the alternator! It has been 6 days and i still have not gotten my car back! Says it should be in tomorrow and it is no biggie to putting it on. But yet when i was there 5 days ago he says challengers go through alternators a lot that's why auto zone and dodge stock up on them, but yet i am having to wait for one to come in?? Bs as of today my car has 32,200 miles on it!
