2013 Dodge Avenger complaints

I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH MY 2013 HEATING SYSTEM. MY DRIVER SIDE VENTS ARE BLOWING HOT AIR , THOUGH MY PASSENGER SIDE IS BLOWING COLD AND I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX THIS! BAD TIME OF YEAR FOR THIS PROBLEM, MY CHILD AND MYSELF WILL BE FREEZING THIS WINTER! ALSO IT HAS UNDER 100,000 MILES ON IT !! AND NO, IT HAPPENS PARKED OR IN MOTION .THANKS DODGE

PASSENGER SIDE DEFROST/VENT DEFECTS. THE DEFROST AND HEAT/AIR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ARE NOT WORKING DUE TO A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. I CANNOT SEE WHEN THE HEAT OUTSIDE THE CAR IS TOO HIGH OR LOW AND THE WINDOW DOESN'T PROPERLY DEFROST DUE TO COLD AIR ONLY COMING OUT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE. ONLY COLD AIR BLOWS FROM THE VENTS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IN BOTH HEAT/AIR AND REGARDLESS OF SETTINGS. THIS OCCURS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION, ON THE HIGHWAY AND WHILE TURNING.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WITH THROTTLE CONTROL SYSTEM LIGHT ON WHEN I GOT INTO CAR THIS MORNING. HAD NOT BEEN DRIVING VEHICLE. SHUT CAR OFF THEN TURNED IT BACK ON BECAUSE I WAS UNSURE WHAT THE LIGHT WAS FOR. LOOKED IT UP ON LINE TO FIND THAT IT IS THE THROTTLE CONTROL SYSTEM.

2013 DODGE AVENGER HEATER ISSUE. DOES NOT HEAT ON RIGHT SIDE. THE CENTER DASH VENT ON THE RIGHT BLOWS WARM BUT NOTICEABLY COLDER THE. THE LEFT ONE RIGHT NEXT TO IT THAT VENT IN THE DASH NEXT TO THE DOOR AND THE FLOOR VENT FOR THE REAR ARE NOT E EN WARM AL ALL. CAUSES RIGHT SIDE OF WINDSHIELD, RIGHT SIDE WINDOWS AND REAR WINDOW TO FOG UP WHILE DRIVING IN COLD WEATHER. I HAVE HAD THE RADIATOR AND HEATER CORE FLUSHED SEVERAL TIMES AND EVEN REPLACED, ONLY A TEMP SOLUTION, ABOUT 1 WEEK. I HAVE REPLACES THE HEATER CONTROL PANEL AND DOOR ACTUATORS, NO HELP. IN DOING SOME RESEARCH, INTERNET AND TALKING TO REPAIR SHOPS AND DEALER SERVICE EMPLOYEES. THIS IS A CHRONIC DESIGN PROBLEM THAT THERE IS NO SOLID SOLUTION FOR.

HEAD REST POPPED OUT OF PLACE WONT GO BACK IN

NO HEAT PASSENGER SIDE TOP OR BOTTOM ANY TIME WHEN DRIVING IN COLD WEATHER WHEN DRIVING OR STOPPED STARTED 2017 GETTING WORST TOLD BY DEALER IT IS PLUG HEATER CORE HAVE TALK TO SEVERAL OTHER OWNERS AND THEY SAID THEY HAVE SAME PROBLEM

THERE IS NO ELECTRICAL POWER GOING TO THE PASSENGER SIDE HEAD LIGHT ON MY VEHICLE. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS FLASH ON AND OFF WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION.

THE DRIVERS SIDE HEADREST SPLIT INTO 2 PIECES FOR NO REASON. MANUFACTURES SPECS STATES THAT IN A REAR COLLISION THE HEADREST DEPLOYS TO ENSURE THE DRIVER DOESN'T GET WHIP LASH. THIS VEHICLE HAS NO ACCIDENTS AT ALL AND WAS NOT BEING DRIVEN AT THE TIME THE HEADREST SEPARATED. I DID RESEARCH AND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE HEADREST IN THIS DODGE VEHICLE. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT MAY SEEM ITS NOT COVERED EVEN WITH THE 7 YR/100,000 MILE WARRANTY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE AVENGER. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO RETRIEVE A FAULT CODE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SANSONE CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE (LOCATED AT 90-100 US-1, AVENEL, NJ 07001, (888) 450-9685) WHERE IT WAS CURRENTLY BEING DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED THREE TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE AVENGER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FLUID LEAKED INTO THE CONNECTOR AND SHORTED OUT THE COOLING FAN MOTOR. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT NOTICED FLUID LEAKING IN THE AREA OF THE WIRING HARNESS AND THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT, WHICH COULD CAUSE A FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER (CRONIC CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM, 2515 N EXPRESSWAY, GRIFFIN, GA 30223, (770) 227-4271) STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED FROM RECALL G39: LEFT RADIATOR COOLING FAN MOTOR CONNECTOR.

WINDOW DEFROST AND PASSENGER HEAT /AIR. WHILE EITHER IN MOTION OR WHILE DRIVING, NO HEATED AIR EXITS THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER, NOR THE PASSENGER WINDOW DEFROST, LOWER AND CENTER CONSOLE VENTS. HEATED AIR ONLY EXITS THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDSHIELD AND DRIVER'S SIDE DASH VENTS. PROBLEM PERSISTS THROUGH ALL CABIN AIR MODES, AND CIRCULATIONS. THIS SAFETY ISSUE EFFECTS VISIBILITY AND PASSENGER SAFETY BY FAILING TO DEFROST/DEFOG WINDOWS AND KEEPING CABIN TEMPERATURES NEAR OR BELOW FREEZING DURING COLD WEATHER (BLOWING COLD AIR INTO THE CABIN).

THERES A CLICKING SOUND WHEN YOU USE HEAT OR AC UNIT. CLICKING SINCE WE GOT CAR 7/2016. SOMETIMES WHENS IGNITION IS OFF IT STILL DOES IT. SOMETIMES MY FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW WON'T WORK, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT STARTS WORKING AGAIN. HAPPENED TWICE IN NOVEMBER 2018. WAS PARKED AND STARTED DRIVING. WHILE LATER WINDOW WENT UP. ALSO I'VE NEVER RECEIVED ANY RECALL NOTICES. GOT CAR JULY 2016 IN KENTUCKY. NOW LIVE AT 8974 LOWMILLER RD MINERVA, OHIO 44657. HOW DO I KNOW WHAT ALL RECALLS THERE IS? WILL I HAVE TO PAY THESE RECALLS TO BE FIXED? THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

COLD AIR BLOWING OUT OF PASSENGERS SIDE WHILE DRIVERS SIDE BLOWS HOT, AND MAKES ANNOYING CLICKING SOUND. AND THE DASH MAKES THE CLICKING SOUND EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS OFF! THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WHEN YOU BUY A CAR TO TRANSPORT YOUR CHILDREN NOW MY CAR WON'T GET HOVER 35MILES AN HOUR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND GOES OFF-CAN'T EXCELERATE SOME DAYS AND OTHERS I CAN

COLD AIR BLOWING OUT OF PASSENGERS SIDE WHILE DRIVERS SIDE BLOWS HOT, AND MAKES ANNOYING CLICKING SOUND. THE ACTUATORS IN THE DASH KEEP GOING OUT!!! THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE NO HEAT BECAUSE CHRYSLER USED CHEAP PLASTIC IN THE ACTUATORS THAT ARE CAUSING THEM TO WEAR OUT EVERY YEAR. AND THE DASH MAKES THE CLICKING SOUND EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS OFF! THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WHEN YOU BUY A CAR TO TRANSPORT YOUR CHILDREN AND THERE ARE RECALLS THAT I AM NEVER GETTING NOTIFIED ABOUT.

WHEN FIRST STARTING CAR IT HEAT IS ON, THERE IS CLICKING FROM GLOVE BOX. NO HEAT ON PASSENGER SIDE OF CAR ONLY ON DRIVERS SIDE

WHEN VEHICLE IS AT OPERATING TEMPERATURE THE PASSENGER SIDE HAS NO HEAT AND WAS TOLD BY A MECHANIC THAT THE HEATER CORE NEEDS REPLACED DUE TO THE COOLANT THAT'S IN THE SYSTEM. THE DRIVERS SEE HAS HEAT BUT NOT THE PASSENGER SIDE

MY 2013 DODGE AVENGER THE PASSENGER SIDE BLOWS FREEZING COLD AIR AND THE DRIVERS SIDE BLOWS HOT

FAULTY ENGINE CAUSING TOTAL ENGINE FAILURE. ENGINE WAS PROPERLY SERVICED AND STILL BLEW WITH ONLY 57K MILES ON IT. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY WHEN ENGINE GAVE OUT. THUS RESULTING IN NO POWER TO GO FORWARD AND BREAKING DOWN ON HIGHWAY.

TAKATA RECALL...I HAVE A 2013 DODGE AVENGER.. MY REAR AIRBAG POP OUT WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. ALSO, MY FRONT VENTS ARE BLOWING OUT COLD AND HOT AIR AT THE SAME TIME.

THE PASSENGER HEADREST ACTIVATED WHILE SITTING IN A PARKING LOT OVERNIGHT. THERE WAS NO COLLISION BUT IT DEPLOYED AS IF THERE HAD BEEN A REAR COLLISION. A SMALL PLASTIC PIECE APPEARS TO HAVE CRACKED OVER TIME AND ALLOWED THE HEADREST TO DEPLOY. THIS COULD EASILY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF IT HAPPENED ON THE DRIVER'S SEAT WHILE IT WAS BEING DRIVEN OR INJURY TO SOMEONE SITTING IN THE SEAT AT THE TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE AVENGER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE HEAT WAS ACTIVATED, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR VENT BLEW OUT COLD AIR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEFROSTER WAS NOT AFFECTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 104,000.

THE HEAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF MY VEHICLE STOPPED WORKING WINTER 2017. IT STARTED BLOWING OUT COOL AIR. THIS HAS CAUSED MY WINDSHIELD AND WINDOWS TO NOT DEFROST PROPERLY CAUSING VISIBILITY PROBLEMS. FALL 2018, MY DRIVERS SIDE IS NOW BLOWING OUT COOL AIR. AGAIN, CAUSING AN EXTREMELY SERIOUS VISIBILITY ISSUE. THIS IS A MANUFACTURERS DEFAULT, NOT CONSUMER.

MY VEHICLE STALLED, STARTED SHAKING, SHUT DOWN AND LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING. THE FOLLOWING THREE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON; 1) MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT (MIL); 2) ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL (ETC); AND 3) ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC). I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE CAR SEEMS TO STALL WHEN I PUT IT IN DRIVE AND TAKE OFF IS SLOW. IT TAKES ME SEVERAL BLOCKS TO JUST REACH 30 MPH. THE CAR ALSO FEELS AS IF IT IS LUNGING BUT RESUMES A SLOW PACE. TAKE OFF IS EXTREMELY SLOW WHEN I STOP FOR TRAFFIC LIGHTS. THE ENGINE SEEMS TO LOSE PRESSURE. THE CAR WILL REV AND ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN EVEN WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL BEING PRESSED. MY CAR STARTED SPUTTERING IN TRAFFIC, THE CAR REVVED UP LIKE I WAS PRESSING ON THE GAS. THEN YESTERDAY I EXPERIENCED IMMEDIATE LOSS OF POWER IN THE VEHICLE & THE INABILITY TO INCREASE SPEED, ALMOST CAUSING ME TO BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. MY VEHICLE SLOWED TO APPROXIMATELY 10 - 20 MPH. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT ADDRESSED THIS FAULTY PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO ADDRESS IMMEDIATELY!!!!! MY LIFE MATTERS AND SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE'S LIFE AND THOSE OF THEIR FAMILY!!!! WHAT IS REALLY UPSETTING TO ME IS THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN REPORTED REPEATEDLY BY OTHERS WHO HAVE HAD THIS SITUATION!!! MY LIFE MATTERS AND SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE'S LIFE AND THOSE OF THEIR FAMILY!!!!

HEATING SYSTEM. PASSENGER SIDE DOES NOT BLOW WARM / HOT AIR WHEN HEATER IS ACTIVATED. HEAT ONLY COMES THROUGH DRIVER SIDE OF VEHICLE WHILE COOL / COLD AIR IS BLOWN THROUGH PASSENGER SIDE. NOT GOOD WHEN IT IS COLD OUT AND WE EXPERIENCE FROST OR SNOW CONDITIONS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE AVENGER. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO ACCELERATE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE SEEMED AS IF IT WOULD TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING. SAN ANTONIO DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (11910 INTERSTATE 35 FRONTAGE RD, SAN ANTONIO, TX 78233, (210) 702-2220) DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE'S BATTERY WAS FAULTY. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V552000 (ENGINE) WAS RECEIVED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000.

FRONT PASSENGER HEADREST EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING, JUST LUCKY NO ONE WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT. MY CAR HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR OVER 3 WEEKS STATING THAT THE HEADREST IS ON BACK ORDER AND SINCE IT'S NOT UNDER WARRANTY THEN I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT OUT OF MY POCKET I HAVE CALLED DODGE AND PUT IN AN INVESTIGATION 2 WEEKS AGO AND HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM THEM JUST WANT TO KNOW HOW THIS IS NOT A MANUFACTURE DEFECT AND IF 1 MALFUNCTIONS THEN WHAT ARE THE CHANCES THE DRIVER SIDE WON'T DO THE SAME?

HEATER WILL ONLY BLOW COLD AIR. AT FIRST THE HEATER WOULD BLOW HOT AIR ON ONLY THE DRIVER SIDE. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP IN JAN 2018 TO FIX. THEY FLUSHED THE SYSTEM AND REPLACED THE DOOR ACTUATORS. AFTER THIS IT BLEW WARM AIR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BUT ONLY LASTED FOR A FEW WEEKS. THE CAR WILL NOW ONLY BLOW COLD AIR ON BOTH SIDES. I TOOK MY CAR BACK TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP RECENTLY AND THEY'RE NOW SAYING WE'LL NEED TO REPLACE THE RADIATOR, RADIATOR CAP, RESERVOIR, ENGINE OIL COOLER, THERMOSTAT, AND HEATER CORE WHICH WILL COST ME $2700. NOTHING WAS DONE WRONG ON MY SIDE AND THIS IS SIMPLY A MANUFACTURE DEFECT AS THE DEALERSHIP HAS TOLD ME THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME WITH AVENGERS AND THERE'RE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ONLINE IN FORUMS SAYING THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED TO THEIR DODGE AVENGER. MY CAR HAS ONLY 81K MILES AND HAS BEEN WELL TAKEN CARE OF. CHRYSLER REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS AS A DEFECT WHEN THEY NEED TO STEP UP AND DO A RECALL. I PAID OVER $200 IN JAN 2018 FOR FLUSHING THE SYSTEM AND DOOR ACTUATORS. I PAID $103.96 TODAY FOR THE DIAGNOSIS. THEY QUOTED ME $2700 FOR REPLACING THE PARTS MENTIONED ABOVE. THAT WORK HASN'T BEEN DONE YET.

THE PASSENGER HEADREST DEPLOYED/ SNAPPED FORWARD ON ITS OWN WHILE DRIVING. THERE WAS NO PASSENGER, THEREFORE NO INJURY. I HAD THIS VEHICLE AT DODGE LIBERTY IN RAPID CITY, SD LAST WEEK AND REQUESTED THIS BE CHECKED, THE TECHNICIAN THAT CHECKED IT SAID HE "HAD NO IDEA, STATED IT LOOKS LIKE THE PLASTIC BROKE" WHEN I GOT HOME I CALLED THE DEALER BACK AND SPOKE TO THE PARTS DEPARTMENT, HE SAID, "I HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE AND THAT THE PART WOULD COST $454. IS THERE A RECALL OF ANY KIND BY CHRYSLER?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE AVENGER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 16V668000 (SEAT BELTS, AIR BAGS) AND 17V640000 (SEATS, AIR BAGS). THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO GET THE RECALL REPAIRS COMPLETED DUE TO LACK OF COMMUNICATION FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

HORN KEEPS GOING OFF AND ON WHILE DRIVING, WHILE PARKED OR TURNING CAR OFF. WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE HAD LOSS OF POWER AND STALLED THE SAME DAY THAT HORN WAS GOING OFF. WAS DRIVING ON THE STREET AT 30 MPH WHEN VEHICLE LOST POWER AND THE STALLED.

HEATER CORE PLUGGED DUE TO METAL FLAKES CLOGGING IT.

THE FOLLOWING THREE WARNING LIGHTS HAVE STARTED TO COME ON INTERMITTENTLY; 1) MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT (MIL); 2) ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL (ETC); AND 3) ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC). THE MALFUNCTION AND ESC LIGHTS WERE THE FIRST WARNING LIGHTS TO COME ON. THE LIGHTS HAVE ACTIVATED WHILE I AM DRIVING ON DRY PAYMENT WITHOUT ANY HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS PRESENT. THE ETC WARNING LIGHT NOW COMES ON TOO. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE CAR SEEMS TO STALL WHEN I PUT IT IN DRIVE. TAKE OFF IS SLOW. IT TAKES ME SEVERAL BLOCKS OF DRIVING TO REACH 30 MPH. THE CAR WILL ALSO FEEL AS IF IT LUNGED BUT RESUME A SLOW PACE. TAKE OFF IS EXTREMELY SLOW WHEN I STOP FOR TRAFFIC LIGHTS. THE ENGINE SEEMS TO BE LOSING PRESSURE. I HAVE MAINTAINED THE RECOMMENDED OIL CHANGE SCHEDULE. THE AFOREMENTIONED CONDITIONS REPRESENTS A SAFETY HAZARD. I FOUND RECALL # N52 ONLINE WHICH APPEARS TO BE FOR ENGINE STALL AND THE LOSS OF ENGINE PRESSURE.

HEAT WENT OUT ON PASSENGER SIDE. NOTHING SPECIFIC TRIGGERED IT. STARTED AROUND THIS TIME IN AUGUST 2017. BLOWER WORKS, AC WORKS JUST 0 HEAT!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE AVENGER. WHILE DRIVING UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADREST EXPLODED WITHOUT WARNING OR IMPACT. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43,000.

I PURCHSED THIS VEHICLE USED .AFTER 2 MONTHS THE ENGINE IS SPUTTERING WHEN GOING UP HILL. IT DOESNT FEEL OR SOUND RIGHT

HVAC SYSTEM HAS PROBLEMS. DRIVER SIDE BLOWS HOT AIR BUT PASSENGER SIDE BLOWS COLD AIR. THERE IS A LOT OF CLICKING BEHIND THE GLOVE BOX. I HAVE REPLACED THE ACTUATOR ONCE ALREADY. IT DID NOT FIX THE HEAT AND COLD ISSUE. THE PASSENGER SIDE BLOWING COLD AIR CAUSES THE WINDSHIELD TO FOG UP AND THE PASSENGER WINDOW TO FOG UP. BECOMES A SAFETY HAZARD TO DRIVE. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING IN TOWN, ON THE HIGHWAY, EVERYWHERE.

I WAS PARKED, WENT IN PHARMACY WITH SPOUSE LISTENING TO MUSIC UPON REENTERING VEHICLE I THOUGHT CAR WAS RUNNING SO I SHIFTED IN GEAR WITHOUT THE CAR BEING TURN ON WITH KEY IN OFF POSITION.

THIS CAR IS A 2013 DODGE AVENGER THIS CAR HAS GIVEN ME MORE PROBLEM THEN ENOUGH I HAVE REPAIRED ABOUT EVERYTHING ON THIS VEHICLE NOW THERE IS A RECALL ON THE AIRBAGS THIS CAR AIR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE AVENGER. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO ATLANTA WEST CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP AND RAM (1251 THORNTON RD, LITHIA SPRINGS, GA 30122) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE OIL PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 88,000.

THE HEATER ONLY BLOWS WARM ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, ALSO THE AIR CONDITIONER JUST STARTED THE SAME THING. THE AIR CONDITIONER ONLY BLOWS COLD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. WHEN I GOOGLED THE PROBLEMS THAT MY CAR IS HAVING THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL OF THESE AVENGERS THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THIS HAS GOT TO BE A MANUFACTURE ISSUE. VIN DOES NOT MATCH WITH ATTACHMENT, SEE ATTACHMENT.*JB

I'VE HAD A FEW ISSUES RECENTLY WITH MY 2013 DODGE AVENGER OVER THE PAST YEAR. WHEN MY CHANGE OIL WARNING INDICATOR COMES ON, SOME OF MY WARNING INDICATOR LIGHTS RANDOMLY COME ON AS WELL. THE FIRST FEW TIMES MY AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND STAY ON. WHEN I TOOK MY CAR FOR THE OIL CHANGE I ASKED THEM CHECK THE AIRBAGS BUT THERE WAS NOTHING INDICATING A PROBLEM AND ONCE THE OIL WAS CHANGED THE LIGHT WOULD GO OFF AND STAY OFF. THE NEXT TIME IT WAS THE ABS & THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM; I GOT THE OIL CHANGED THEY CHECKED, NOTHING WAS FOUND AGAIN. BEFORE THIS LAST TIME, MY OIL WARNING CAME ON ALONG WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT, AS IF THE BRAKE WAS UP AND IT STAYED ON EVEN WHEN I DROVE, AGAIN NO PROBLEMS WERE FOUND. LAST NIGHT (5/09/18) CHANGE OIL WARNING INDICATOR CAME ON. THIS MORNING (5/10/18) I STARTED MY CAR (AUTOMATIC CAR STARTER) WENT OUT TO MY CAR AND MY TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT AND MY ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL WARNING LIGHT WERE LIT. I TRIED TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON, HOWEVER THE CAR WOULDN'T SHUT OFF RIGHT AWAY. WHEN I RESTARTED MY CAR THE LIGHT INDICATORS WERE GONE. BUT WHILE DRIVING TO WORK IF I WERE TO STOP AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN MY CAR WOULD IDLE AND FEEL AS THOUGH IT WAS ABOUT TO SHUT DOWN SO I HAD TO PUT IT IN PARK WHILE STOPPED. ALSO WHEN I HAD TO ACCELERATE FROM THE STOP IF I JUST DROVE LIKE NORMAL AND TOOK MY FOOT OF THE BRAKE AND PUSH THE GAS THE RPM'S WOULD GO TO 7 THEN DROP AND MY CAR WOULD SHAKE. I HAD TO TAKE

MY AIRBAG SENSOR HAS BEEN ON HAD A MECHANIC HOOK IT UP TO THE DAIGNOSTIC MACHINE AND WAS TOLD IT STILL HAD TO DO WITH THE AIRBAG IN THE HEAD REST WHICH WAS ALREADY SUPPOSED TO BE TAKEN CARE OF. NOW I SEE THERE IS A RECALL ON THE CONTROL/ SENSOR BUT MY CARE IS NOT ON THE LIST.

WHAT TO DO AFTER A CAR RECALL?

GOOD AFTERNOON, TO WHOM THIS MAY CONCERN. MY VEHICLE HAS THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON AND I HAVE BEEN GOING TO THE DEALER SHIP TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF AND EVERY TIME I HAVE GONE TO THE DEALER THEY ARE TELLING ME I HAVE TO PAY FOR THEM TO REMOVE THE AIR BAG LIGHT WHEN A RECALL WAS IN PLACE FOR THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER, THEY FIXED THAT ISSUE BUT THE ISSUE OF THE AIR BAG STILL REMAINS. THEY ARE ASKING ME TO PAY $139.00 FOR THEM TO FIND THE ISSUE AND THEN PAY ANOTHER EXTRA AMOUNT TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER. THEY ARE REFUSING TO FIX THIS ISSUE WITHOUT A COST AND IT HAS BEEN WAY TOO LONG TRYING TO GET THIS RESOLVED.

VEHICLE STALLING AND SHAKING, SHUTTING DOWN AND LOOSING POWER WHILE DRIVING. VERY UNSAFE AND CONCERNING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE AVENGER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE INADVERTENTLY DECELERATED AND THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND POWERED OFF THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED, BUT FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 132,000.

THE "CHECK BRAKE" INDICATOR LIGHT CONTINUED TO ILLUMINATE EVEN AFTER WE GOT THE "OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER (ORC) RECALL FIXED. WE WERE TOLD THAT THE OCR WAS CONNECTED TO THE BRAKE SYSTEM IN TURN MAKING THE BRAKE LIGHT ILLUMINATE, AND IT WOULD GO OFF AFTER YOU DRIVE A COUPLE HUNDRED MILES. AFTER MANY MONTHS THIS PROBLEM STILL CONTINUED INTERMITTENTLY ILLUMINATING EITHER WHILE DRIVING - ON EITHER CITY STREET OR HIGHWAY OR WHEN COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AT A RED LIGHT OR WHEN IT WAS IN PARK. WE TOOK IT BACK TO HENDRICK DODGE IN CHARLOTTE, NC TO ULTIMATELY BE TOLD THAT WE NEED A MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER THAT COST $782.10. THIS CAR ONLY HAD 41,941 MILES ON IT AND ALL SERVICES WERE KEPT UP. THE SERVICE ADVISOR THEN TOLD US THAT THIS WAS DUE TO A "BRAKE BOOSTER WATER SHEILD DEFECT". WE WOULD LIKE TO REPORT THIS "DEFECT" THAT DODGE DOES NOT OFFER ANY "RECALL" ON OR ANY FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE WITH. WE WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE YOUR ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.

PURCHASED CAR WITH 61,000 MILES AND RIGHT WHEN I PICKED UP CAR NOTICED THAT PASSENGERS SIDE AIR WAS COLD AND DRIVERS SIDE WAS HOT. ALSO WHEN ADJUSTING AIRFLOW FROM VENT, DEFROST, FLOOR, FLOOR/VENT IT DOES NOT CORRECTLY HAVE THE AIR COME OUT AT THE SELECTED LOCATION. THIS IS A PROBLEM HAPPENING WITH THE DODGE AVENGER AND THERE IS NO ANSWER OUT THERE SAYING WHY THIS IS HAPPENING TO ALL YEAR NOT JUST ONE YEAR OF THE DODGE AVENGER. DODGE KNOWS THIS IS A RECALL ITEM BUT WILL NOT ADMIT THEY HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND ASSIST THERE CUSTOMERS. THERE ARE VARIOUS IDEAS OUT THERE SAYING WHY IT IS HAPPENING BUT AS PEOPLE TRY THOSE SOLUTIONS THE PROBLEM IS NOT FIXED OR IT COMES RIGHT BACK. DODGE NEEDS TO MAKE THIS A RECALL IT IS COSTING CUSTOMERS THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS AND KNOW ONE KNOW WHAT TO DO TO FIX 100% INCLUDING DODGE DEALERS. PLEASE HELP AND GET THIS ISSUE TO BE A RECALL. THE OWNER BEFORE ME HAD THIS PROBLEM AND COULD NOT GET IT CORRECTED AS I FOUND OUT AND THAT IS WHY THEY GOT RID OF IT AS I LOOK MORE INTO THE PROBLEM.
