* Dealership: Your local Dodge dealership will be able to get you the correct part, but it will likely be the most expensive option.
* Online Retailers: Websites like Amazon, eBay, and RockAuto are good places to search. Be sure to specify the exact year, make, model, and engine of your Charger when searching to ensure compatibility. Read reviews carefully to check for quality issues.
* Auto Parts Stores: Local auto parts stores such as AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, NAPA Auto Parts, and O'Reilly Auto Parts may have it in stock or be able to order it. Again, provide them with all your vehicle's information.
* Junkyards: If you're on a tight budget, checking local junkyards or salvage yards for a used dipstick is a possibility, but there's no guarantee of finding one in good condition.
Important Note: A 2009 Dodge Charger likely has an automatic transmission. Many modern automatics, including some in this model year, *don't actually have a transmission dipstick*. The transmission fluid level is checked differently, often requiring a specific procedure or tool. Before you start searching for a dipstick, confirm your Charger actually *has* one. Consult your owner's manual or a reliable online repair resource specific to your vehicle to determine the correct way to check your transmission fluid level. Replacing the wrong part can lead to additional problems and expenses.
