Yes, the 2.7-liter engine in the 2010 Dodge Charger is an interference engine. An interference engine is one in which the pistons and valves occupy the same space within the combustion chamber but at different times. If the timing belt or chain were to fail or jump timing in an interference engine, the pistons and valves can collide, potentially causing severe engine damage. So, if the timing chain has let go and now the engine does not have compression there is a change the valves got bent as well. Here is how to change the timing chain out in case you want to give it a try. Check out the images (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem so we can see what's going on.
