2009 Dodge Avenger

Defect. CHRYSLER IS RECALLING 91 MY 2009 SEBRING AND DODGE AVENGER EQUIPPED WITH 2.4L ENGINE PASSENGER VEHICLES. A COMPATIBILITY ISSUE BETWEEN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER SOFTWARE AND FUEL PUMP MODULE CAN RESULT IN THE FUEL GAUGE OVERSTATING THE ACTUAL FUEL TANK LEVEL.

Risk. THIS CAN CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STALL AND CAUSE A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE PCM FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 10, 2008. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHRYSLER AT 1-800-853-1403.

The anti lock brake system malfunctioned, the ABS, ESP/BAS and traction control lights are on. It kicked a code C2116 which reads ABS pump motor supply low voltage. I took it to a brake shop and they said the pump motor needs replaces but I would have to find one since they don’t stock it. I call several Dodge dealers and was told the part is discontinued and no longer available. I searched on line for one and the only one available is a used one on eBay. Also if you research this it is a common malfunction on this year and other Dodge/ Chrysler vehicles. Anti lock brakes will not work until this is fixed and no parts available . Thank you

The contact owns a 2009 Dodge Avenger. The contact stated while driving at various speeds in the rain and snow, the windshield wipers shuddered and stopped working. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that there was corrosion detected and that the wiper motor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. While driving, the windshield wipers stopped in an upward position. The vehicle was taken back to the local dealer, who was unable to diagnose or repair the vehicle. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

I GOT THIS CAR MAY 13 2019 EVERY SINCE I HAD THIS CAR THE WIPER STOP WORKING WHEN IAM DRIVEING IN RAIN AND SNOW. I TOOK THIS CAR BACK TO DEALERSHIP IN 2019 2020 AND 2021 AND THEY SEND ME HOME AND SAY THERE NOTHING WRONG WITH THE WIPER. NOW IT 7/2022 IT RAIN AND THE WIPER STOP AGAIN WE COULD GOTTEN KILL ON HIGHWAY FROM COLUMBUS GOING BACK TO SPITZER MOTER TOMORROW FOR THE 4TH TIME

STARTED GETTING A OBD CODE 2017 AND 2004. AFTER REPLACING THE MANIFOLD RUNNER CONTROL VALVE THE LIGHT STAYED ON AND NOW CODE SAYS THAT THE CIRCUIT IS HIGH IN BANK ONE. I TOOK OFF THE RUNNER CONTROL AND TESTED IT SO IT IS A GOOD PART,

GOING HOME FROM WORK, APPROXIMATELY 1 HOUR AND 15 MINUTES FROM MY JOB, AND TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 40-42 MPH MY ENGINE JUST STOPPED....NO SOUNDS, NO WARNING LIGHTS, NOTHING. JUST TRIED TO UP MY SPEED TO GO UP A VERY SMALL INCLINE, AND NOTHING...HEADLIGHTS STILL WORKED, NO POWER STEERING, NO BRAKES.......MANAGED TO PULL OVER.........SHAKING LIKE A LEAF ON A TREE, BECAUSE I AM 65 YEARS OLD, ALONE, NO FAMILY TO CALL, NO ONE.....AND THIS WAS A LITTLE AFTER 9PM AT NIGHT ON NOV 2ND. CALLED MY MOBILE MECHANIC THE NEXT DAY AND HE GAVE ME THIS INFO TO FILE A COMPLAINT. HE SAID THIS IS VERY SERIOUS. I WAS ON BUFORD HWY <FOUR LANE ROAD> SPEED LIMIT 45 MPH GOING STRAIGHT AND APPROACHING A RED LIGHT ON A VERY SMALL INCLINE.

VEHICLE IN MOTION MOST ON HIGHWAY AND SOMETIMES CITY STREETS. SOMETIMES THE CAR WILL BOG DOWN USUALLY BETWEEN 40--65 MPH WHEN ACCELERATING AND ALSO WHILE NOT. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP THEY KEYED IT (TEST) AND SAID MANIFOLD SENSOR OR SENSOR ABOUT $1500.00 REPAIR. GOT THIS FIXED AND CAR STILL DOING IT. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR AT LEAST 5 YEARS THAT I KNOW OF. I DON'T DRIVE VEHICLE ALL THE TIME BUT WHEN IT GETS DROVE IT HAPPENS. THE LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS 2 WEEKS AGO. ITS WAS GOING ON AT ABOUT 50000 MILES

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT WAS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED DOWN TO A LOWER GEAR, THE ENGINE REVED UP AND THEN WITHIN A FEW MINS STALLED OUT. WITH NO WARNING ALSO ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE LIT UP. WHEN I TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR IT JUST CLICKED AFTER JUMP START BECAUSE OF TRYING TO START IT ...RESTARTED BUT STILL WAS "STUCK" IN THE LOW GEAR AND STALLED OUT AGAIN. I THEN CALLED A TOW TRUCK AND HAD IT TOWED HOME. I LOOKED UP RECALLS FOR THE YEAR OF THE MODEL AND FOUND THE RECALL #H33- TCM/PCM WAS RECALLED ON 712 MODELS BY VIN IT SAYS MINE ISN'T ONE OF THOSE BUT BY DESCRIPTION IT DID EXACTLY AS THE RECALL DESCRIBES. I WAS ON A VERY BUSY INTERSTATE ROAD DURING 4TH OF JULY TRAFFIC AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT TRYING TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AS MY CAR SUDDENLY SLOWED DOWN AND THEN STALLED

WHEN I'M DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY,RESIDENTIAL AREAS, ON A FREEWAY IT WILL STALL ON ME AND TURN OFF. WHEN I'M TURNING THE 2009 DODGE AVENGER TURNS OFF AS WELL THIS IS A REALLY BAD SAFETY HAZARD MYSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE CAN GET SERIOUSLY HURT. IT ALSO TURNS OFF WHILE I'M AT A STOP LIGHT.

AIR BAG LIGHT CONSTANTLY COMING ON AND OFF, BEEPING, AND SOMETIMES JUST STAY ON. BRAKE LIGHTS CONTINUALLY COME ON - EVERY FEW MONTHS FOR WEEKS AT AT A TIME. ALSO FEELS LIKE CAR WANTS TO GIVE OUT A LOT.

THERE IS A RECALL ON THE PCV ON THE YEAR MAKE AND MODEL AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS READING THAT IT IS BAD BUT THEY SAY THAT MY VIN DOES NOT MATCH FOR RECALL BUT YET MY YEAR MAKE AND MODEL DOES

THE 2008 DODGE AVENEGER HAD 6 RECALLS. MY 2009 DODGE AVENGER IS DOING EVERYTHING THE 08 WAS RECALLED FOR.

I WAS DRIVING OUT OF THE CITY ON A STREET THAT CHANGES FROM 25 TO 35 MPH, I BEGIN TO ACCELERATE AND THE CAR STALLS AND THE ETC LIGHT ILLUMINATES. THEN WITH MORE FORCE ON THE PEDAL IT ONLY GOES UP TO 10 TO 15 MPH. THE CAR SHAKES AND BEGINS TO ACT WEIRD HARD TO STOP TO MAKE A TURN INTO A PARKING LOT. I'VE ALMOST WAS FORCED WHILE BRAKING TO PULLED IN FRONT OF CARS OUT OF MY CONTROL DUE TO THE JUMPING AND SHAKING OF THE CAR. I THEN LET IT TURN OFF AFTER PARKING. I SHUT OFF ALL ELECTRIC DEVICES RUNNING ON THE CAR. I THEN TURN OF THE FAN FOR AC AND HEAT. I THEN CONTACT A LOCAL INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE CAR WAS DRIVEN BACK WITH NO STALLING NO LIMP MODE BUT THE LIGHT WAS STILL ONE. ONCE IN THE SHOP HE RAN THE CODES ALL 4 CODES CAME ON FOR ETC BUT THE LIGHT THEN GOES OFF. THEN IT WAS CLEARED FOR A SOLID 30 MINUTES. I THEN DRIVE HOME FROM THE SHOP NO LIGHT UNTIL 5 MINUTES AFTER AND NO STALLING AT THE TIME AND PARKED MY CAR IN MY DRIVEWAY. I CALLED THE MECHANIC TO LET HIM KNOW OF THE PROBLEM HAD OCCURRED AGAIN. WORKING ON PRICE FOR ME TO REPAIR. I'VE SEEN POSTED THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND HAPPENS RANDOMLY TO PEOPLE. I ALSO SEE THAT THE ONE PART WAS LATER UPGRADED. SUGGESTING THE ORIGINAL ETC IS FAULTY. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND WAS TOLD THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND THAT THERE IS NO RECALL CURRENTLY BUT I MAY OR MAY NOT GET A LETTER IN THE MAIL. I ASKED IF THERE IS AN INVESTIGATION OR A RECALL GOING ON AND WAS TOLD THAT SHE WOULD NOT KNOW OF THIS INFORMATION. YET THIS WAS THE RECALL NU

AIR BAGS BLEW UP WHEN PARRELL PARKING BUMPED A CAR IN FRONT OF ME AT 1 MILE PER HOUR AND BOOM.

WIPERS WILL STOP IN MIDDLE OF WINDSHIELD, OR BE JERKY WHEN MOVING. IF STOPPED, MOVING WIPER CONTROL TO NEXT POSITION, OR TURNING WIPERS BACK OFF, THEN ON, WILL MAKE WIPERS MOVE A BIT MORE. IN A RAIN STORM, HAVE TO CONSTANTLY MOVE WIPER SWITCH TO MAKE WIPERS MOVE. VISIBILITY IS A DISASTER. MAKES DRIVING IN A RAINSTORM VERY DANGEROUS.

I FEEL THESE. RECALLS SHOULD BE DONE ON MY CAR BECAUSE I DON'T FEEL SAFE AND WAS BEG INFORMED ABOUT ANY OF THEM AND MY CAR IS HAVING ISSUES DUE TO THEM

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 DODGE AVENGER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO ROLL DOWN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW WHEN IT SUDDENLY SLID DOWN INTO THE DOOR. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO ROLL THE WINDOW BACK UP. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A CERTIFIED MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE MECHANISM THAT HELD THE WINDOW UP FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE FAILURE RECURRED TO THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE WINDOW. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE CERTIFIED MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THE SAME FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000.

REAR SEATBELT BUCKLES. THE STITCHING THAT HOLDS THE LOOPS TO BUCKLE / CLASP DISINTEGRATED. MY SON WAS BUCKLED IN AND I HAD TO BRAKE HARD. SEATBELT BUCKET CAME OFF CLASP / AWAY FROM VEHICLE AND HE HIT BACK SEAT. CHECKED OTHER BUCKLES AND THERE WERE ALL WORN OUT AS WELL. I HAVE THE BUCKLES STILL / REPLACED THEM BUT DON'T HAVE PICTURES HANDY.*DT*JB

THE CAR STALLS WHEN AT A STOP. THE ENGINE CUTS OFF. NO WARNING LIGHTS AND THE DODGE DEALERSHIP CAN NOT FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. IT HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES.

IT BEGAN WITH THE AIR BAG LIGHT GOING ON AND OFF AS WELL AS THE AIR BAG SOUND. IT BECAME MORE FREQUENT AND OCCURRED MOSTLY WHEN TAKING A LEFT HAND TURN. CONCERNED THAT THE AIR BAGS MIGHT DEPLOY, I PULLED THE FUSE. WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL, THERE IS A SPRING NOISE BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL THAT PINGS IN EITHER DIRECTION.

MY CAR WAS PARKED OUTSIDE AND MY SUNROOF EXPLODED AND CAVED IN

RED LIGHTING SYMBOL APPEARS ON THE DASH WHILE I'M ON THE HIGHWAY. SUDDENLY MY CAR LOSES ITS HORSEPOWER AND I BEGIN TO COAST. I PULL OVER TO THE SIDE AND THE CAR BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY UNTIL I PUT IT IN PARK. WHEN IN PARK, THE CAR IDLES TO ABOUT 2500 RPM. I'VE DONE A BIT OF RESEARCH AND IT APPEARS COUNTLESS PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AT THE SAME MILEAGE WITH THIS VEHICLE. ACCORDING TO THEM, IT IS CAUSED BY THE ELECTRONIC TROTTLE CONTROL THAT SEEMS TO BE IMPOSSIBLE TO FIX.

2009 DODGE AVENGER RPMS WOULD RISE AND FALL 200-300 AT IDLE. EXHAUST/MUFFLER WOULD RATTLE. HAVE BEEN TO MULTIPLE SHOPS AND THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. IT IS TAKING LONGER TO START UP. THE ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED 2 MONTHS AGO. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED LAST WEEK. YESTERDAY, IT WAS CHECKED BY AN AUTOZONE EMPLOYEE FOR CODES AND NOTHING CAME UP. I STARTED THE CAR AND IT QUICKLY DIED THERE AFTER. DROVE IT AROUND ALL DAY AFTER THAT AND NOT A PROBLEM. TODAY IT HAD A VERY ROUGH START, RPMS WENT ABOVE 2000 AND BACK DOWN TO ABOUT 400, CONSTANTLY, AND CAR WAS SHAKING A LOT. I BACKED OUT OF THE GARAGE AND WHILE I APPLIED THE BRAKES, IT ALMOST DIED. I BARELY GOT IT IN PARK BEFORE IT DID DIE. THE WHOLE TIME THE CHECK ENGINE AND ETC LIGHTS STAYED ON. THIS IS A FIRST FOR BOTH TO STAY ON. ETC HAS CAME ON BEFORE AND STAYED, THEN NEVER SHOWED UP FOR ANOTHER 1-2 YEARS (NOW0. CAR HAS ALMOST 87,000 MILES.

I HAVE A 2009 DODGE AVENGER PURCHASED IN 2012. YESTERDAY I WAS IN A SCARY SITUATION AND COULD HAVE SERIOUSLY HURT A CHILD DONE THE DODGE. YESTERDAY MORNING THE CAR WAS DRIVING FINE I PARKED, TOOK THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION, AND STARTED TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. THE CAR STARTED ROLLING BACK I JUMPED IN THE CAR HIT THE BRAKE, BRAKES DID NOT WORK HAD TO PULL THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP. AT THE TIME THERE WAS A CHILD RIDING BY ON A BIKE THANK GOD THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WORKED. I PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE JUST IN TIME. TRUST ME THAT WAS REALLY SCARY TOO ME BECAUSE OUT OF ALL THE CARS I HAVE HAD THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED TO ME. AFTER I GOT THE CAR TO STOP I TRIED TO START THE CAR IT WOULD NOT START. I HAD TO CALL MY BROTHER IN-LAW TO LOOK AT THE CAR AT CHECKING SEVERAL THINGS AND WATCHING SEVERAL YOU TUBE VIDEOS WE NOTICED THIS HAS BEEN AND ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THE DODGE AVENGER. HE FIGURED IT WAS SOMETHING WITH THE SHIFT STICK AND OR ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. HE GOT THE CAR STARTED BUT IT WOULD ONLY GO IN REVERSE AND WHEN HE TURNED THE CAR OFF IT WOULD NOT CRANK BACK UP. HE TRIED TO RESET THE CAR BY UNHOOKING THE BATTERY CABLE BUT THAT DID NOT WORK. AFTER SEVERAL TRIES HE COULD NOT GET THE CAR TO CRANK BACK UP. I WAS STUCK AT THE ONE LOCATION FROM 9AM TO 9PM. I HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK AND GET IT TOWED TO MY HOUSE. I REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE, BECAUSE I DO NOT FEEL THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO COME OUT OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN AND ONGOING ISSUE AND IS A SAFETY H

I WAS TRAVELING DOWN A BUSY ROAD WHEN A TRUCK PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME WITH NO TIME TO STOP AND SMASHED MY WHOLE FRONT END IN MAINLY ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND I HAD NO AIR BAG DEPOLYMENT
