Safety score
46/100
Average recall-severity risk Lower recall-severity risk than 45% of makes we track.

Dodge scores 46 out of 100 (grade C) for recall severity, which ranks it 29 of 52 makes and about average across brands. The score is the recall-weighted average of its models, so the brands with the most do-not-drive and critical-safety recalls sit at the bottom. How the score works.

In total, NHTSA lists 145 Dodge recall campaigns across 13 models for the 2010-2025 model years. The single largest affected 4,815,661 vehicles. The system recalled most often is the electrical system.

A high recall count usually tracks how many cars a brand sells and how long its models have been on the road, not how dangerous they are. The safety score below adjusts for that by weighing how serious and recent each recall is. The table further down breaks every Dodge model out so you can see which ones drive the count.
