2012 Dodge Dart complaints

TURBO/SUPER CHARGER UNDERBOOST

WHEN SHIFTING CAR FROM PARK TO REVERSE OR REVERSE TO DRIVE VEHICLE MOVE TO NEUTRAL. WHILE DRIVING CAR SHIFTS GOING 30MPH INTO NEUTRAL. CURRENT VIN NUMBER NOT UNDER RECALL BUT OTHER MAKES AND MODEL OF THIS VEHICLE ARE ON RECALL FOR THIS

I HAVE TAKEN THIS VEHICLE INTO ELK GROVE DODGE 4 TIMES FOR THE TRANSMISSION SAFETY RECALL. EACH TIME THE TRANSMISSION GOES OUT. JUNE 15, 2018 WAS THE LAST TIME THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. ELK GROVE DODGE REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION.WITH APPROXIMATELY 59,893 MILES ON THE CAR. APPROXIMATELY 1.5 MONTHS AGO 6 MONTHS LATER I WAS ON THE FREE WAY AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE JUMPED OUT OF GEAR AND WENT INTO NEUTRAL. I THEN LOST POWER TO THE ENGINE AND ALMOST CRASHED INTO THE CENTER DIVIDE. I CONTACTED ELK GROVE DODGE WHEN I FINALLY GOT HOME WITH THE VEHICLE. THE SERVICE MANAGER ADVISED ME THAT THEY WERE NOT GOING TO HONOR THEIR WARRANTY EVEN IF IT WAS UNDER SAFETY RECALL. I CONTACTED DODGE RESOLUTIONS DEPT. SPOKE TO A GUY BY THE NAME OF CHANCE. THIS GUY IS TAKING HIS DEAR SWEET TIME IN HELPING ME. THIS VEHICLE IS A LEMON AND CHRYSLER IS STARTING TO REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM.

TAKATA RECALL TRANSMISSION ISSUES AND BLIND SPOT DETECTOR ISSUES WHILE IN MOTION MY RIGHT BLIND SPOT DETECTOR WILL TURN EVEN IF NOBODY IS IN THE PROPER PARAMETERS OF THE VEHICLE

MY DAUGHTER JUST PURCHASED A 2013 DODGE DART 4 MONTHS AGO AND THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE HAS ALREADY BEEN FAILING. I KNOW SEVERAL OTHER 2013 DODGE DARTS HAVE HAD A RECALL FOR THIS AND UNFORTUNATELY MY DAUGHTERS CAR HAS NOT BUT IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THEY WONT PAY FOR IT WITHOUT THE RECALL ON THAT VIN # . I THINK IF THERE IS A DEFECT ON THESE 2013 DARTS THEY ALL SHOULD BE RECALLED

THE PARKING BRAKE WILL NOT ENGAGE. DOES NOT HOLD CAR IN POSITION WHEN APPLYING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. CAR ROLLS WHEN PARKING BRAKE IS APPLIED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE DART. WHILE DRIVING UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED TO SHUT OFF. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HOOVER DODGE (195 MARYMEADE DR, SUMMERVILLE, SC 29483, (843) 873-1114) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE WIPER MECHANISM NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE DART. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION ERRONEOUSLY SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND COULD NOT BE TURNED OFF IMMEDIATELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HENDRICK DODGE (81 MCKNAN DR, CARY, NC) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V542000 (POWER TRAIN).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE DART. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE AND THE CHECK ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND POWERED OFF THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE NORMALLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LARRY H. MILLER CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM ALBUQUERQUE (8528 LOMAS BLVD NE, ALBUQUERQUE, NM 87110, 505-404-0108), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE APPROVED FOR RECALL CONCERNING (MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH) WHICH IS THE WINDSHIELD WIPER CONTROLLER AS ITS COMMUNICATING CABLES ARE TOO FRAGILE TO WORK UNDER REGULAR TURNING SIGNAL USAGE AS CABLE WITHIN COMPONENT GETS PULLED BY IT'S OWN REGULAR MOTION AT USAGE. THIS CAUSES THE CABLES WITHIN THE SWITCH TO GET CUT AND BROKEN MAKING IT TO BREAK COMPLETELY. BECAUSE THE PART IS NOT BEING PRODUCED BY MOPAR THE PART IS NOT FOUND AS DODGE DEALERS MAKE YOU WAIT IN LINE NEXT TO 400 OTHER DODGE DRIVER OWNERS IN ORDER TO GET THE PART (WHEN THEY START PRODUCING THE PART) WHICH THERE HAS BEEN NO CONFIRMATION OF BEING PRODUCED BY MOPAR.

IT APPEARS THERE IS AN ALARMING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE WHEN I START THE CAR AT DEGREES LOWER THAN 40. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE BUT WHEN IT OCCURS I LOOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD RESULTING IN MY RPM'S TO JUMP HIGHER THAN NORMAL ACCOMPANIED BY VIBRATION AND RATALING COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD OR TIRE (ITS HARD TO TELL) . FROM MY RESEARCH, THE COLD START ISSUE WAS A RECALL FOR 2013 DODGE DART BUT IT IS NOT SHOWING FOR MY VIN. COULD SOMEONE PLEASE REACH OUT TO ME REGUARDING THIS COMPLAINT??

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY TO WORK THE CAR WILL STALL AND BEGIN TO JERK. THE ENGINE LIGHT WILL BEGIN TO FLASH WHILE IN MOTION AND THE CAR WILL SLOW DOWN IN SPEED AND THEN PICK BACK UP AFTER A WHILE. AFTER CRANKING THE CAR IT WILL SHUT OFF WHILE STILL PARKED. THE CAR WILL ALSO SHUT OFF WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO TURN ONTO ANOTHER STREET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE DART. WHILE DRIVING 15 MPH, THE GEAR SHIFTED OUT OF DRIVE AND INTO NEUTRAL ON ITS OWN. ALSO, THE TRANSMISSION SERVICE AND CHECK ENGINE INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 37,000.

DURING COLD WEATHER OF 20 F OR LOWER REMOTE START, PUSH START, AND MAIN DASH/TOUCH SCREEN WILL NOT WORK CORRECTLY. CAR WILL NOT CORRECTLY START BY REMOTE/PUSH START AND STALLS OUT PERIODICALLY DESPITE HAVING BEEN SERVICED FOR RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH THIS ISSUE. MAIN DASH/ TOUCH SCREEN WILL NOT TURN ON AT CAR START WHICH MAKES HEAT/COOLING/RADIO/REAR CAMERA/ SEAT HEATING INACCESSIBLE AND UNCONTROLLABLE. MULTIPLE RESTARTS DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AND WHILE DRIVING IT WILL NOT COME ON. ANYTHING CONTROLLED BY DASH/TOUCH SCREEN IS LOCKED TO THE SETTINGS THEY WERE LAST TIME THE DASH/ TOUCH SCREEN WAS ACCESSIBLE. ACTUAL CONTROLE KNOBS DO NOT WORK WHEN DASH/TOUCH SCREEN IS NOT FUNCTIONAL. IF SYSTEMS DO NOT WORK CORRECTLY AT START THEY DO NOT WORK CORRECTLY AFTER DRIVING AND 'WARMING' UP THE ENGIN. THIS CAR IS LOCATED IN MICHIGAN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE DART. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE HAD BEEN MULTIPLE FAILURES PERTAINING TO THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND TURBOS. ALSO, THE VEHICLE MISFIRED AND FAILED TO START SEVERAL TIMES. WHILE ON AN INCLINE, THE VEHICLE REVERSED WHEN THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS APPLIED. THE DEALER (BAXTER CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OMAHA (17950 BURT ST, OMAHA, NE 68118, (402) 800-1230) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES AND DIAGNOSED THAT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED A THIRD TIME BECAUSE A PORCELAIN PIECE SURROUNDING THE CENTER ELECTRODE FRACTURED AND A PLUG CAME OUT OF A PISTON TOP ASSOCIATED WITH THE CYLINDER WALLS, WHICH DAMAGED THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER, THE TURBO, AND THE LONG BLOCK. THE DEALER REPLACED THE PARTS. THE CONTACT WAS UNCERTAIN IF THE OEM PARTS THAT WERE REPLACED CAUSED THE FAILURES BECAUSE, AFTER THE REPAIRS, THE FAILURES CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDED THAT THE VEHICLE BE TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.

VEHICLE "BUCKING" BETWEEN 1500 AND 2000 RPM. PROBLEM MULTIPLE PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING. SEEMS TO BE EITHER CLOGGED FUEL FILTERS, FUEL PUMP, SPARK PLUGS, OR IGNITION COILS WITH THE LAST TWO BEING THE PRIMARY. CONTINUOUS ISSUE FOR OVER A YEAR. TOOK TO DODGE. SAID IT WAS FIXED, BUT PROBLEM CONTINUED. THEY WOULD NO LONGER LOOK INTO ISSUE BECAUSE VEHICLE HIT 100,000 MILES.

I WAS INVOLVED IN CAR ACCIDENT 12/20/2018, MY AIRBAG ON DRIVER SIDE DID NOT DEFLATE. I RECEIVED BRUISE AND PAIN ON MY LEFT SIDE OF THE BODY. *DT *TR

CAR WENT INTO NEUTRAL AUTOMATICALLY WHILE DRIVING , WARNINGS SIGNS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL SAID BLIND SPOT UNAVAILABLE , AUTO STICK UNAVAILABLE , GEAR NOT AVAILABLE THEN FOLLOW BY A SERVICE TRANSMISSION. COULDN'T GET THE CAR STARTED BACK WHEN I HAD TO WAIT 10 MINS , FINALLY GOT IT START BACK UP AS A RESULT HARD SIFTING OCCURRED.

I HAVE HAD 5 DIFFERENT PLACES CHANGE MY OIL AND AT EVERY ONE THE FILTER HAS EITHER COME OFF IN MY HAND OR CREATE A GAP IN THE FILTER SEAL WHICH IS CAUSED OIL TO START SPRAYING ALL OVER THE CAR AND LEAKING ALL OVER THE GROUND. ALL FIVE TIMES THIS IS HAPPENED THE FILTER IS EITHER GOING OFF IN MY HAND OR HAD THE SEAL OF THE FILTER START LEAKING OIL. SPRAYING OIL ALL OVER IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND CAUSING ME TO LOSE ALL OF MY OIL ON THE GROUND AND ALL OVER THE ENGINE UNKNOWN IF THIS IS CAUSED ANY OTHER PROBLEMS INSIDE THE ENGINE YET EVERY TIME THIS IS HAPPENED I WAS JUST ABOUT TO GET ON THE FREEWAY I WAS ABLE TO GO SOMEWHERE ELSE AND HAVE IT TAKEN CARE OF WITH MINIMAL DRIVING WITHOUT OIL . THIS IS HAS HAPPENED FIVE TIMES NOW AT DIFFERENT LOCATIONS CHANGING THE OIL EVERY TIME IT'S HAPPENED WHEN YOU JUST CHANGE THE OIL AND ALSO WHEN IT'S ALMOST TIME TO CHANGE OIL AGAIN OR ANYTIME IN BETWEEN THAT. IF I HAD MADE IT ON THE FREEWAY WITH ANY OF THESE TIMES THAT THIS IS HAPPENED IT COULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC TO MY ENGINE AND CAUSE ME TO CRASH

WAS DRIVING THE CAR DOWN THE FREEWAY WHEN ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH LIT UP. THE CAR LOST POWER STEERING AND STARTED TO SHUT DOWN. I HAD TO FIGHT TO GET IT OFF THE ROAD SINCE THE POWER STEERING WAS GONE. ALL THE LIGHTS REMAINED LIT UP. I BELIEVE IT'S THE PCM DO TO OTHER RECALL BUT MY CAR IS A MANUAL AND THE RECALL IS FOR AUTOMATICS ONLY.

I GOT IN MY CAR, STARTED IN, PLACED IT IN DRIVE AND PULLED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. I GOT NO MORE THAN 4 FEET AND THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL ON ITS OWN FROM DRIVE AND THEN STOP MOVING. I PUT THE BRAKE ON, MOVED THE GEAR STICK INTO PARK AND ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE CAR. IT WOULD NOT TURN OVER. I LOOKED DOWN AT THE GEAR SHIFT AND REALIZED IT WAS STILL IN DRIVE AND SAID THE SAME ON THE DASH. REPEATED TRIES PROVED TO BE FRUITLESS. THE CAR IS NOW ENGAGED IN DRIVE AND PREVENTS ME FROM REMOVING MY KEY FROM THE IGNITION.

MY 2013 DODGE DART SXT WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL NOT TURN OFF! THIS IS BECAUSE OF THE SWITCH NOT WORKING OR IT'S AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. TURN SIGNALS STILL WORK BUT THIS IS A HAZARD THAT CAN GET DRIVER HURT. IT ADDS AN DISTRACTION.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND ON CITY STREETS, THE DASH BOARD LIGHTS WENT OUT AND THE NEEDLES FOR THE SPEED AND RPM WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE BOTTOM LIKE THE CAR WAS CUT OFF. THE CAR WAS STILL IN MOTION. THE DASHBOARD SAID SERVICE ELECTRICAL BREAKING SYSTEM AND THE ENGINE LIGHT ELUMINATED. IT DID THIS MORE THAN ONE TIME. IT WILL FLICKER THE WARNING ON THE DASHBOARD AND THEN AT ONE POINT THE CAR CUT OFF WHILE ON CITY STREETS. AT ANOTHER TIME WHEN THE MESSAGE FLICKERED ON THE DASHBOARD THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY IN THIS CAR AS WELL AS MY CHILDREN. THE RADIO CUT OFF AND THE EVENTUALLY CUT BACK ON.

THE EMERGENCY BRAKE FUNCTION ON THE REAR BRAKE CALIPERS ON THE MANUAL VERSION OF THE 2013 DODGE DART 1.4L MULTIAIR TURBO SEIZE OVER TIME. IT HAPPENED FIRST WITH MY BACK RIGHT REAR CALIPER. I WAS DRIVING AFTER HAVING PARKED USING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THE CAR WAS PULLING HARD TO THE RIGHT AND WAS RESISTING ACCELERATION. I PULLED OVER TO FIND MY BACK RIGHT WHEEL SMOKING AND THE ROTOR RED HOT. THE EVENT WAS DANGEROUS. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO MY LOCAL AUTOSHOP AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THERE WAS GALVANIC CORROSION ON A SPRING THAT WAS INTENDED TO RELEASE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WHEN DISENGAGED. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THIS WASNT THE FIRST TIME THAT THEY HAD SEEN THIS ON THIS MODEL OF CAR, AND THAT I SHOULD EXPECT FOR IT TO HAPPEN ON THE OPPOSITE ASSEMBLY AS WELL. I DID NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO REPLACE BOTH AT THE TIME, SO I ONLY REPLACED THE DAMAGED CALIPER, ROTOR, AND PADS. SLIGHTLY OVER ONE YEAR LATER, THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED TO THE OTHER ASSEMBLY. I ATTEMPTED TO FIX IT MYSELF. TO MY SURPRISE, UPON GETTING UNDERNEATH THE CAR AND COMPARING THE TWO BRAKE ASSEMBLIES, THE ASSEMBLY THAT HAD BEEN REPLACED WAS VISIBLY DIFFERENT. THERE APPEARS TO BE A COATING ON THE RELEASE SPRING. TO ME, THIS SIGNIFIES THAT DODGE IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND HAS MADE A REVISION, HOWEVER THERE IS NOT A RECALL IN PLACE. CONSIDERING THE IMPORTANCE OF BRAKES AND THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE EMERGENCY BRAKES TO MANUAL VEHICLES, I CONSIDER THIS UNACCEPTABLE. I HAVE SEARCHED FOR RECALLS AND NOT FOUND ANY, AND I HAVE REAC

ENGINE BEGAN TO RUN ROUGHLY AND THEN STALLED IN TRAFFIC WHILE AT A LIGHT. MANAGED TO RESTART AFTER SEVERAL TIRES WITH GAUGES CLICKING AND DASH LIGHTS FLICKERING AND DROVE HOME. CAR WILL NOT START NOW ALTHOUGH LIGHTS AND RADIO FUNCTION NORMALLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE DART. WHEN THE CONTACT STARTED THE VEHICLE, THE WIPER BLADES ACTIVATED AND WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DETERMINED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WIPER SWITCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,000.

BRAKE-BOOSTER VACUUM-TUBE IS LETTING OIL HIT MY BRAKES AND WHEN I STOP THE CAR IT SMOKES AND A REALLY BAD SMELL IS SUCKED IN BY THE A/C INTO THE CABIN AREA. THIS PROBLEM IS ALSO NOT LETTING MY CAR STOP IN A SHORT DISTANCE ESPECIALLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS IS WORD FOR WORD ON THE FCA WEDSITE ABOUT THE PROBLEM "BRAKE-BOOSTER VACUUM-TUBE ROUTING MAY INADVERTENTLY ALLOW OIL TO REACH THE BRAKE-BOOSTER DIAPHRAGM IN THE EVENT THAT THE VACUUM-PUMP CHECK VALVE FAILS; OIL MAY DEGRADE THE DIAPHRAGM AND LEAD TO A LOSS OF BRAKE ASSIST, LENGTHENING STOPPING DISTANCES AND INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH." I HAVE GONE TO EVERY DEALERSHIP IN MY AREA AND BECAUSE MY CAR IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST I CAN'T HAVE THE PROBLEM FIXED. MY FEAR IS ONE DAY I MAY BRAKE AND THE CAR GOES UP IN FLAMES..

THE CAR KEEPS CUTTING OFF. I CRANK IT BACK UP AND IT RUNS FOR A LITTLE BIT AND CUTS RIGHT BACK OFF. I HAVE HAD THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHECK AND THAT'S NOT THE ISSUE.

CAR RECENTLY DIED. SHOWED SIGNS OF A BAD ALTERNATOR- LIGHTS, SENSORS, RADIO SHUT DOWN, POWER STEERING WENT OUT. REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR AND THE BATTERY. DROVE FINE FOR A FEW WEEKS AND ONCE AGAIN THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I AM NOW ON ALTERNATOR FOUR AND BATTERY NUMBER THREE. HAD THE NEW ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY PUT ON, STARTED THE CAR AND THE BATTERY LIGHT COME ON. HAD THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR TESTED, BOTH PASSED AS LONG AS RADIO AND HEAT WAS NOT ON. DROVE THE CAR FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES AND THE CAR DIED AGAIN LIKE THE ALTERNATOR WAS BAD EXCEPT IT'S NOT BECAUSE IT WAS TESTED. DEALERSHIP WAS OF ZERO HELP AND STILL CAN NOT FIGURE OUT THE ISSUE. THIS CAR IS A COMPLETE HAZARD WHILE DRIVING DUE TO IT DYING IN TRAFFIC.

I WAS DRIVING AND HAD MY WIPERS ON OF COURSE BECAUSE IT WAS RAINING AND IT STOPPED RAINING SO I WENT TO TURN THEM OFF BUT IT NEVER TURNED OFF. SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE RIBBON INSIDE WAS BROKEN AND THAT IT WAS GOING TO BE OVER 500$ TO FIX IT. SO I LOOKED UP THE FUSE TO TAKE IT OUT SO IT WOULD TURN OFF BUT TURNS OUT THERE ISN'T ANY FUSE FOR IT. I'M LOOKING THROUGH THE INTERNET TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM AND THERE ARE ACTUALLY A LOT OF PEOPLE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. I BELIEVE DODGE SHOULD FIX THIS AT NO COST. IT'S HAPPENING TO A GOOD CHUNK OF PEOPLE

MY CAR IS TICKING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. IN RESEARCHING EVERYONE WITH THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE HAVING TO REPLACE THE CV JOINT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. SUPER FRUSTRATING THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ON THIS AS IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE. WHEN TRYING TO PURCHASE THE PASSENGER CV JOINT EVERYONE IS SELLING USED CV JOINTS FOR DRIVERS SIDE AND THERE IS NOT OPTIONS FOR PASSENGER SIDE.

I PURCHASED THE CAR JULY 2017 AND HAS BEEN AT THE DEALER 5 TIMES DUE TO PROBLEMS. I HAD A REOCCURRING ISSUE WITH THE BATTERY LIGHT COMING UP, THE DEALER FOUND NO ISSUES WITH THE BATTERY. MARCH 2018 THE BATTERY SIGN LIT UP FOLLOWED BY A SLEW OF OTHER SIGNALS, INCLUDING A POWER STEERING LOCK SIGNAL AND THE CAR STARTED SHAKING. I WAS DRIVING WHEN THIS HAPPENED, THEN THE POWER STEERING LOCKED. I WAS ABLE TO PULL THE STEERING WHEEL HARD ENOUGH AND LUCKILY FOUND A PARKING LOT WHERE I COULD PARK THE PARK SINCE I WAS IN A HEAVILY TRANSITED AREA. ATTACHED IS A PICTURE I TOOK AFTER I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PARK THE CAR. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY FOUND NO ISSUES WITH THE CAR, I HAD TO PAY $250+ FOR THIS. NOVEMBER 2018, THE BLUETOOTH DOES NOT CONNECT, THE ODOMETER IS BLINKING CONTINUOUSLY AND THE CAR SHAKES WHEN AT A STOP. TURNS OUT TO BE THAT THE BLUETOOTH CONSOLE NEEDED TO BE CHANGED ($900+ COST), A TUNE UP WAS NEEDED 'BADLY' ($400+) AND THERE WAS BELIEVED TO BE A PROBLEM WITH A PIECE OF THE TRANSMISSION THAT WAS CAUSING THE CAR TO SHAKE. THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY WOULD COVER THE COST OF THIS LAST ISSUE IF IT WAS FOUND TO BE THAT THIS WAS THE PROBLEM. IF IT WAS FOUND THAT THE TRANSMISSION PART WAS NOT CAUSING THE SHAKING, WE WOULD NEED TO COVER THE $600+ COST FOR THE LABOR. WE ARE IN PROCESS OF DEALING THIS MATTER WITH A MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP, SINCE WE DO NOT WANT TO KEEP THIS CAR.

BRAKE BOOSTER VACCUM PUMP IS LEAKING OIL, CAUSING CAR TO SMOKE AND HAVE A BURNING SMELL. IT WAS RECALLED ON OTHER MODELS OF THE DODGE DART BUT NOT THIS ONE, AND IT'S HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. WHEN TURNING, PARKING, OR BRAKING.

WHEN TURNING INTO MY DRIVEWAY TO PARK MY CAR. THE GEAR SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL WHEN I THOUGHT I PARKED MY CAR I TRIED TO PUT IT IN DRIVE, REVERSE, AND PARK BUT IT WOULD NOT SHIFT TO ANOTHER GEAR. ALSO MY KEY IS STUCK IN THE IGNITION BECAUSE IT'S STUCK IN NEUTRAL.

MY SON WAS DRIVING HIGH WAY 280 EAST BOUND MP15.1 WHEN A VEHICLE IT US FROM BEHI D THEN HIT US A SECOND TIME ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR BETWEEN THE PASSAGERS FRONT AND BACK DOOR BUSTING THE BACK PASSENGER WINDOW OUT AND DENTED THE WHOLE PASSAGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE TOTALLING THE VEHICLE OUT WE ENDED UP HITTING AND DAMAGING THE DIVIDER WALL BEFORE COMING TO A STOP ALONG THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD FACING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION....IT WAS RAINING CATS AND DOGS... REALLY HARD

THE CLUTCH STAYS STUCK TO THE FLOOR, THEN PRESSURES UP AT TIMES .I SEE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ONLINE.

CAR WOULDN'T START THEN WHEN IT DID THE GEAR INDICATOR LIGHTS TURNED RED AND SHIFTS REALLY HARD THEN YOU CAN SHUT CAR OFF AND WIGGLE THE SHIFTER AND IT WILL START BACK UP AND RUN FINE FOR A WHILE THEN WHEN SITTING AT A LIGHT IT MIGHT GO BACK TO THE RED LIGHTS AND START SHIFTING HARD AGAIN WAS TOLD ITS THE TCM (TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE) YOU REALLY NEVER KNOW WHEN ITS GOING TO DO THIS HAS DONE IT IN THE MIDDLE OF TURNS WHEN IT STARTS OR JUST SITTING IN PLACE

CAR'S ENGINE COMPARTMENT BURST INTO FLAMES DURING COMMUTE TO WORK 0700 IN THE MORNING 10/09/2018, 65 DEGREE DAY IN 35 MPH ZONE. 54,000 MILES ON CAR. CAR WAS MOVING AT 30MPH WHEN ENGINE DIED AND CAR STARTED TO SMOKE FROM UNDER HOOD, WITHIN 60 SECONDS FLAMES APPEARED FROM HOOD, MY DAUGHTER DRIVING THE CAR GOT OUT JUST IN TIME SHE WAS THE ONLY PASSENGER. LOST ALL BELONGINGS IN CAR.

CAR ACCELERATES TO 7000 RPMS WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PULL OUT OF A STOP CAR DOESN'T MOVE. IT HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES AT DIFFERENT INTERSECTIONS ALMOST GOT HIT FROM BEHIND. DEALER CANT DUPLICATE ERROR MY FEAR IS AN ACCIDENT.

AUTOMATIC TRANS SHIFT LINKAGE BUSHING HAS FAILED. LEAVING CAR UNSERVICABLE. DEALER STATES TO ORDER BUSHING THEY DON'T HAVE ANY. 2013 50K

WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL NOT CUT OFF RAINING OR NO RAIN. WHEN YOU START THE VEHICLE THEY JUST RUN.

SO THIS IS LIKE THE THIRD(3) TIME THAT MY BATTERY HAS GONE DEAD. AT FIRST IT WAS THE STOCK BATTERY. THEN I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW ON AT MY LOCAL AUTO ZONE FOR $200 AND SOMETHING. THEN THE SAME THING KEEPS HAPPENING. ONCE IT HAPPENS THE STIRRING WHEEL BEGINS TO GET REALLY REALLY TIGHT UNTIL YOU CAN'T REALLY MOVE IT. ONE DAY MY GIRLFRIEND WAS DRIVING IT AND SHE GOT STOCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE SHE COULDN'T MOVE IT. BUT IT IS REALLY SCARY BECAUSE YOU HAVE CARS BEHIND YOU DRIVING 60+MPH AND YOU PRAY THAT YOU DON'T GET HIT BECAUSE YOU DON'T WANT NOBODY TO GET INJURED SPECIALLY YOU. HOPE DODGE DOES SOMETHING ABOUT. REALLY STARTING TO DISLIKE THE CAR I LOVE. :/

SHIFTING STICK IS STUCK, THE CAR APPEARS TO BE STUCK IN REVERSE BUT ACTUALLY IS STUCK IN NEUTRAL, THE KEY IS STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND CAR WON'T TURN ON. DAY PRIOR TO THIS CAR WAS PARK ALL DAY, LATER IN THE EVENING IT WAS DRIVEN FOR ABOUT 3-5 MILES AND PARKED WITHOUT AN ISSUE. NOTHING WAS OUT OF THE ORDINARY UNTIL THE NEXT DAY WHEN I TRIED TO DRIVE IT AGAIN.

THE CLUTCH CABLE BECAME DISCONNECTED JUST AS I WAS PULLING INTO A GAS STATION
