Miranda is only if they are going to interrogate you. If they did and didn't read you Miranda, then the statements can be suppressed.

No the charges will not be dropped for that reason. The only result in a failure to give Miranda rights is the suppression of any inculpatory (guilty) statements made in response to interrogation while in custody.
