TAKATA RECALL- I HAVE A VEHICLE THAT IS CURRENTLY ON RECALL, I CAN NOT SAFELY DRIVE THE VEHICLE SO IT HAS BEEN MOSTLY SITTING SINCE OCTOBER WHEN I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT MANY TIMES WITH THE PERSON WHO IS SUPPOSED TO HELP AND RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT I WILL BE AWARDED $40.00 A DAY FOR A RENTAL CAR UNTIL THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN FIXED AND I CAN HAVE MY CAR FIXED. HOWEVER I CAN NOT GET AN APPROPRIATE VEHICLE FOR $40.00 A DAY. PLUS I CAN NOT AFFORD TO PAY THE MONEY UPFRONT TO GET A RENTAL VEHICLE. IT WOULD BE MUCH CHEAPER TO JUST HAVE YOU GUYS PAY IT OFF. MY CAR WOULD OF ALREADY BEEN PAID OFF IF SOMEONE WOULD HAVE DONE SO IN THE BEGINING. I AM WRITE TO LET YOU KNOW THAT THE CAR IS NOW HAVING ISSUES; IT KEEPS MAKING A LOUD CLICKING NOISE WHEN IT FIRST STARTS AS WELL AS WHEN IT STOPS AND PERIODICALLY WHEN IT ISN'T EVEN BEING DRIVEN. IT ALSO LEAKS WATER INTO THE TRUNK WHEN IT IS WET OUTSIDE. I AM ASKING ONCE AGAIN FOR THIS CAR TO BE PAID OFF, I CAN NOT SELL OR TRADE THIS VEHICLE AND AM STILL MAKING PAYMENTS ON IT. I AM ASKING TO GET THIS PAID OFF, IF NOT I HAVE CONTACTED A LAWYER AND WILL PROCEED WITH A LAW SUIT, I REALLY DO NOT WISH TO PERSUE THIS HOWEVER IT HAS BEEN NINE MONTHS AND I NEED THIS RESOLVED.

THE METAL COATING ON ALL OF THE DOOR HANDLES IS DEFECTIVE. IT IS PEELING UP EXPOSING A VERY SHARP EDGE ON ALL HANDLES THAT CAUSES DEEP LACERATIONS ON HAND.

RECALL WAS NEVER DONE FOR S6 1ST OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER. EVERY TIME I CALL CHRY. ABOUT IT THEY SAY THEY DO NOT KNOW WHEN THEY WILL HAVE A REMEDY.

NO INCIDENT! JUST TAKING TOO LONG TO FIX A RECALL PROBLEM THAT COULD RESULT IN DEATH OF DRIVER AND/OR PASSENGERS

WE HAVE 2 OF THE EXACT SAME 2012 DODGE AVENGERS ON OUR LOT, WE ARE NEEDING A RECALL EXTENSION AND POSSIBLE REFUND ON OUR EXPENSES FOR THE VIN I PROVIDED DUE TO THE FACT THAT WE HAVE ALREADY HAD TO REPLACE THIS PART ON THE OTHER AVENGER THAT WE HAVE. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT CAMPAIGN: 13V552000 AND MFR CAMPAIGN: N52 ARE ON ALL DODGE AVENGERS, SO TO PREVENT OUR COMPANY FOR PAYING FOR A PART THAT HAS A RECALL WE ARE WANTING TO EXTEND THE RECALL SO IT COVERS THE AVENGERS MADE FOR THE YEAR OF 2013. NOT JUST THE ONES MADE AFTER THE RECALL THAT WAS MADE HALF WAY DURING THAT YEAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE AVENGER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED BEHIND A COMMERCIAL VEHICLE. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, THE TRUCK IN FRONT SUDDENLY MOVED AND ALLOWED THE CONTACT TO NOTICE ANOTHER VEHICLE HEADING TOWARDS THEM AT HIGH SPEEDS. THE CONTACT SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL, RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, BUT WAS UNABLE TO GAIN CONTROL. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE LANDED IN A DITCH ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE'S FRONT FENDER WAS DAMAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TOWED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT DID NOT RECEIVE ANY INJURIES. APPROXIMATELY SIX MONTHS PRIOR TO THIS FAILURE, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 106,013.

HEATER ONLY BLOWS COLD AIR ON PASSENGER SIDE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS IS CASING SAND CLOGGING THE RADIATOR, HEATER CORE AND THE OIL COOLER. THIS HAPPENS AS A RESULT OF THE HEATER CORE BEING THE WRONG SIZE AND CHRYSLER FIXING THE ISSUE BY CASTING IT IN PLACE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR THOSE OF US WHO LIVE IN STATES WHERE THE WINTER GETS BAD. WHILE DRIVING IN INCLEMENT WEATHER THE SNOW, ICE, OR SLEET WILL BEGIN TO ACCUMULATE ON THE WINDSHIELD AND PASSENGER WINDOW. THE SAD PART IS THAT THIS IS THE SECOND DODGE AVENGER I HAVE HAD WITH THIS ISSUE AND ON BOTH OCCASIONS I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED BOTH TIMES BEFORE THIS HAS BECOME AN ISSUE. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THIS DEFECT AND FIX IT BEFORE IT CAUSES A DEATH. TO HAVE THIS REPAIR DONE COSTS $2500 WITH NO GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL LAST.

COMPLAINT REGARDING NHTSA RECALL S61: POSSIBLE SHORT CIRCUITING FOR AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT AND THERE IS NOT REMEDY FOR IT. WHY AM I DRIVING AROUND A CAR WHERE THE AIR BAGS COULD NOT DEPLOY? THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE AND THE PERSON WHO I TALKED TO REGARDING THE RECALL COULDN'T BE BOTHERED WITH IT. I DON'T AGREE WITH THIS.

MARCH 12, 2017 HEADING SOUTH, DOWN VETERAN PARKWAY SPRINGFIELD IL. WHEN I NOTICED MY CAR RED 2012 DODHE AVENGER R/T TURNED OFF MID MOTION AROUND 45MPH. NO WARNING!! NO ACCELERATION, NO BRAKES, NO POWER STEARING!? NO CONTROL OF THE CAR! STAYING CALM BUT CLUELESS, I WAS ABLE TO TURN TO A SIDE ROAD AND CAUTIOUSLY TURNED INTO A PARKING LOT NEXT TO OFFICE MAX AND WAITED 1 HR FOR A TOW.STREET NAME ILSE AVE. TOWED TO GREEN DODGE SPRINGFIELD IL THE SAME DAY. MONDAY, MARCH 13 THE TECH DIAGNOSES FUEL PUMP NOT WORKING, (2CD DIAGNOSIS OF FUEL PUMP FAILURE THIS YEAR. 1ST TIME IN JANUARY 2017 TECH DIAGNOSED SHORTAGE IN WIRE TO FUEL PUMP FRIED THE FUEL PUMP. DO THEY ORDERED THE PART AND FIXED THE PROBLEM ( SO THEY THOUGHT) NOW THIS 2CD DIAGNOSIS WAS NEW FUEL PUMP. SO THEY ORDERED THE PART. WELL THE FUEL PUMP WORKED BUT CAR DID NOT RUN. FURTHER DIAGNOSIS BY THE TECH FROM GREEN DODGE, IS FAULTY TIPM MODULE! NOT THE FUEL PUMP, NOT A SHORTAGE IN WIRE FROM PREVIOUS DIAGNOSIS THEY DID. SHOULDN'T THE TIPM SHOULD HAVE BEEN NOTICED THE FIRST TIME. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH ON THE TIPM SETTLEMENT FOR CHRYSLER LAWSUIT FOR INSTALLING FAULTY TIPM MODULES IN THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES AND I BELIEVE THIS INCLUDES MY VEHICLE HERE RED 2012 DODGE AVENGER R/T, AND I BELIEVE GREEN DODGE TOOK ADVANTAGE OF ME AS A VALUED CUSTOMER AS THEY SAY , MY MONEY , AND MY TIME IN NEED OF HELP! I HAVE PAYED 1400$ ALMOST TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED AND ALMOST 3 MONTHS TIME SPAN FOR SAME ISSUE THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED THE FIR

NOTHING HAS HAPPENED YET WITH MY VEHICLE IN REGARDS TO THIS RECALL, BUT AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED IN REGARDS TO THE SAFETY FEATURES (AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER) THAT WERE DETERMINED AS DEFECTIVE BY THIS RECALL. ONE OF THE PRIMARY REASONS THAT I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE WAS DUE TO THE GOOD SAFETY RATINGS IT RECEIVED, SO I AM VERY UPSET THAT THIS IS NOT BEING FIXED IN A TIMELY MANNER. I DON'T FEEL LIKE I SHOULD BE FORCED TO BUY A NEW VEHICLE DUE TO THIS RECALL, BUT WITHOUT ANY ESTIMATE ON WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE, I DO NOT APPRECIATE THE PREDICAMENT I AM IN WHERE I DO NOT HAVE A SAFELY DRIVABLE VEHICLE AND AM ESSENTIALLY ROLLING THE DICE BY DRIVING AROUND IN A DEATH TRAP ANY TIME I DO USE IT. I AM HOPING THAT I DO NOT HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL A BAD THING HAPPENS BEFORE I CAN GET MY VEHICLE REPAIRED PROPERLY. ANY INFORMATION AND ASSISTANCE WOULD BE APPRECIATED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION OF THIS REQUEST TO EXPEDITE THE RESOLUTION OF THIS ISSUE.

WE HIT A PATCH OF SLUSH AND ICE, THE REAR TIRES LOCKED AND THE CAR SLAMMED HEAD-ON INTO A CONCRETE PILLAR. THE CAR'S BUMPER, GRILLE, SUPPORT BAR ETC WERE SEVERELY DAMAGED AND THE CAR WAS DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS. THE RADIATOR WAS FOLDED INTO A "V". THE DRIVER'S HEAD HIT THE STEERING WHEEL RESULTING IN A CONCUSSION. THE AIRBAG NEVER DEPLOYED. BEFORE THE ACCIDENT, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WAS FLASHING ON/OFF WHEN WE USED THE TURN SIGNAL. THE CAR DIDN'T START OR SHUT OFF AT TIMES. THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM/AIRBAG. (RECALL RELATED INCIDENT) TS

ACCORDING TO THE RECALL INFORMATION ON YOUR SITE, MY CAR HAS A SERIOUS SAFETY RECALL WHICH IS INCOMPLETE, AND STATES I SHOULD FILE A COMPLAINT.

I WAS INFORMED OF THE RECALL IN OCTOBER OF 2016 AND I HAVE JUST RECENTLY BEEN TOLD THAT DODGE WILL NOT HAVE A PART TO FIX THE RECALL UNTIL AT THE EARLIEST JUNE 2017. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE BECAUSE WE HAVE ALREADY WAITED FIVE MONTHS FOR A FIX AND MY WIFE IS PREGNANT AND WE ALREADY HAVE A TODDLER.

THE HEAT DOES NOT BLOW HOT AIR ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE OF THE CAR. THIS INCLUDES THE WINDSHIELD, CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT ONLY CLEARS THE FOG ON ONE SIDE. DODGE SERVICE SHOP SAID THE ISSUE IS A KNOWN CHRYSLER ISSUE, REQUIRING A NEW RADIATOR, HEATER CORE, AND COOLANT BOTTLE. AT AN ESTIMATE OF $2235.00. HOWEVER CHRYSLER IS REFUSING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT CLAIMING IT IS NOT A KNOWN ISSUE.

SUMMARY: THE VEHICLES MAY EXPERIENCE LOSS OF AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER DEPLOYMENT CAPABILITY IN CERTAIN CRASH EVENTS DUE TO A SHORTING CONDITION RESULTING IN A NEGATIVE VOLTAGE TRANSIENT THAT TRAVELS TO THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER VIA THE FRONT IMPACT SENSOR WIRES. SAFETY RISK: THE POTENTIAL LOSS OF AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER DEPLOYMENT CAPABILITY IN SUCH CRASH EVENTS MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY IN A CRASH.

MY SON WAS IN A HEAD ON COLLISION AND THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT DID NOT LOCK IN PLACE AND IT FULLY EXTENDED ALLOWING MY SON'S HEAD TO SLAM INTO THE WINDSHIELD. HE HAS HAD A HEAD ACHE, IN THAT EXACT SPOT FROM THE IMPACT, FOR 7 DAYS CONSECUTIVELY. - (RECALL RELATED INCIDENTS) TS

I RECEIVED NOTICE STATING THAT THERE IS A CURRENT SAFETY RECALL FOR : THE POTENTIAL LOSS OF AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER DEPLOYMENT CAPABILITY IN SUCH CRASH EVENTS MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY IN A CRASH. IT WAS RECALLED IN OCT2016 WE ARE IN JAN2017 AND I HAVE YET TO HEAR ANYTHING AND WE HAVE TWO OF THESE SAME VEHICLES. WE HAVE YOUNG CHILDREN RIDING IN THESE VEHICLES AND WE COMMUTE FOR WORK DAILY. THIS IS A GREAT CONCERN.

THE HEAT BLOWS HOT ON THE DRIVER SIDE BUT BLOWS COLD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE CAUSING THE WINDOWS AND WINDSHIELD TO FOG UP AND REDUCE VISIBILITY NOT TO MENTION POSSIBLE FROSTBITE FROM SITTING ON THAT SIDE.....GETS PRETTY COLD HERE IN MINNESOTA. BOUGHT THE CAR NEW AND THE HEAT HAS NEVER REALLY BEEN GREAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE,BUT NOW IT'S LIKE TURNING THE A.C. ON. I HAVE READ SOME INTERESTING ARTICLES ABOUT PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AND IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S A MANUFACTURES DEFECT AND PRETTY EXPENSIVE TO FIX,DOESN'T MATTER IF THE CAR IS AT IDLE OR GOING DOWN THE ROAD. *TR

AT AROUND 100,000 MILES MY PASSENGER SIDE HEAT STOPPED WORKING WITH ONLY MY DRIVER SIDE HAVING SOME WARMTH. THIS WAS VERY SUDDEN. NOW, 3 WEEKS LATER THERE IS NO HEAT IN MY 2012 DODGE AVENGER SE. IT'S THE MIDDLE OF WINTER AND I CANNOT SEE BECAUSE WITHOUT HEAT I HAVE NO DEFROSTER. THE CAR IS NOT OVERHEATING, AND MY COOLANT LEVELS HAVE BEEN FINE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WHICH SHOULD WARRANT A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE. I AM TAKING IT TO THE AUTOMOTIVE SHOP THIS WEEK, BUT WORRY BECAUSE I HAVE SEEN PEOPLE STATING THEY HAD TO PAY HUGE SUMS OF MONEY FOR DODGES MANUFACTURING DEFECT. PLEASE RECALL THIS DEFECT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE AVENGER. THE CONTACT OBSERVED THAT THE DEFROSTER FAILED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE SAND CASTING AND RADIATOR CORE FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 90,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE AVENGER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, AN UNKNOWN ANIMAL WAS HIT BY THE VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN UNKNOWN LOCATION AND WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V668000 (AIR BAGS) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83,000.

NO HEAT COMING IN ON THE PASSENGER SIDE VENTS. LUSTINE DODGE DID A RADIATOR AND HEATER CORE FLUSH THEN TOLD ME THE HEATING CORE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND STILL WANT TO CHARGE FOR THE FLUSH. I HAVE SEEN THE HEATING CORE ISSUE SEVERAL TIMES REPORTED AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. I AM ALSO CALLING DODGE TO REGISTER COMPLAINT AND FRAUD SINCE THEY KNOW THIS IS AN ISSUE.

PASSENGER HEATER SIDE BLOWS COLD AIR. WHEN CHANGING AC/HEATER TO/FROM FRESH AIR AND RE-CIRCULATION A LOUD CLICKING NOISE HAPPENS. P0306 CYLINDER MISFIRE WHEN IT RAINS WATER GETS INTO THE TRUNK THOUGH THE SPOILER.

THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THAT I ONLY HAVE HEAT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM IS CAUSED BY CASTING SAND THAT WAS IN THE ENGINE WHICH CAUSES THE RADIATOR, HEATER CORE, AND OIL COOLER TO PLUG UP. NOT A CHEAP FIX AND I HAVE SEEN COMPLAINTS FROM MANY OTHERS WITH SAME ISSUE. MANUFACTURER AWARE OF PROBLEM.

I WAS MAKING A RIGHT TURN ONTO A STREET COMING FROM A PARKING LOT. BECAUSE THIS IS A BUSY STREET THERE IS A TRAFFIC LIGHT AT THIS LOCATION. I HAD A GREEN LIGHT TO TURN. ANOTHER DRIVER TRAVELING ABOUT 40 MPH OR MORE IN A PICK-UP TRUCK, RAN A RED LIGHT AND SLAMMED DIRECTLY INTO MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR. MY HEAD AND MY SHOULDER TOOK THE BRUNT OF THE IMPACT. MY COLLARBONE WAS FRACTURED AT THE TIP WHERE IT CONNECTS TO MY ACROMION BONE, AND MY CAR WAS TOTALED. NONE OF MY AIRBAGS, NOT EVEN THE SIDE IMPACT AIR BAGS, DEPLOYED.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE AIRBAGS AND SEAT BELTS IN MY AVENGER. THEY ARE SAYING THAT THE RESTRAINTS AND PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT MAY OR MAY NOT WORK PROPERLY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. I FREQUENTLY CARRY MY CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN IN THAT VEHICLE. CHRYSLER IS SAYING THAT THERE IS NO FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM AT THIS TIME. THEY ARE SAYING THAT THE PARTS ARE NOT EVEN DESIGNED - OR AVAILABLE, AND WILL NOT BE UNTIL THE SECOND QUARTER OF NEXT YEAR. I AM IN CONTACT WITH CHRYSLER - AND THEY HAVE OFFERED TO PAY FOR A RENTAL VEHICLE USING MY CREDIT CARD - AND THEN REIMBURSE ME. HOWEVER, THIS COULD GO ON FOR MONTHS AND MONTHS. I DO NOT THINK THAT THEY HAVE PROPERLY NOTIFIED THE AMERICAN PUBLIC OF THE DANGERS OF THE FAILURE OF THE SAFETY EQUIPMENT. I DO NOT THINK THAT I SHOULD HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR PROVIDING THEM WITH MY CREDIT CARD TO OBTAIN A SAFE VEHICLE WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN GOOD FAITH THAT IT WAS SAFE AND SOUND. PLEASE HELP ME.
