Production of rear-wheel-drive vehicles started at the beginning of 2004 with the launch of the Chrysler 300 and Dodge Magnum. Production of the Dodge Charger was launched in early 2005. Dodge Magnum production was discontinued in late 2007. The all-new 2009 Dodge Challenger SRT8 launched production in May 2008, with the Dodge Challenger following in August 2008.

On May 2, 2022, a $3.6 billion CAD ($2.8 billion USD) investment was announced to transform both the Windsor and Brampton Assembly Plants to support the Company’s Dare Forward 2030 strategic plan. Beginning in 2024, Brampton will be retooled and fully modernized. When production resumes in 2025, the plant will introduce an all-new, flexible architecture to support the company's electrification plans. Once the transformation is complete, the plant is expected to return to a three-shift operation.
