2014 Dodge Dart complaints

While driving to town, going approximately 35-40 mph, I went to slow down and pressed the brakes and the brake pedal went to the floor. To stop, I had to engage the Emergency Brake. I was almost hit by another vehicle and had to jump the curb to avoid collision and potential injury to myself and my family. This incident was very traumatic and potentially fatal to me and my family. I started checking on the recalls, and investigations, complaints for my 2014 Dodge Dart SD. I found other people had made complaints to you for the same issue. Total brake failure. At this time I have not had my car towed to the dealership for inspection and repairs. But I will update you on the details and provide you with the inspection report from the dealership as soon as they complete the inspection. There were no signs that the brakes were not working properly, no lights, no alarms , nothing. Only a pedal that went completely to the floor of my vehicle, causing immediate panic and confusion as to what was happening. It took a moment to realize that the brakes were on the floor and not engaging while oncoming traffic through the traffic light barely missed me. The parking lot that I was attempting to turn into luckily had no one pulling out or there would most certainly have been a collision between two or more vehicles. I used the emergency brake to get the vehicle stopped so that I didn’t crash into the storefront. Myself and my son were traumatized when we realized that how lucky we were to

The contact owns a 2014 Dodge Dart. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle suddenly shifted into neutral. The contact was able to pull to the shoulder of the roadway, where the vehicle failed to shift back into drive. The contact also stated that the vehicle began to overheat and displayed a message to not start the engine. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed failures with the transmission control module, the PCM, and the catalytic converter. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related it to NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V542000 (Power Train) however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was 123,000.

Last Thursday, August 3rd, I reversed my car out of my garage. Upon putting it in Drive, the engine light came on as well as the PRND lights illuminated red. As I was driving, I noticed my car felt sluggish to my destination, but I did make it. When I parked, I noticed how jerky the car was when shifting from drive to park. After my appointment, the red PRND lights were gone, with the engine light still on. I had another appointment to get new tires, and the car ran fine this time, except engine light still on. Once my new tires were on, engine light also no longer lit. I took my car to get it diagnosed. It gave out 3 codes; po705-00, p1c86-92, and B1578-2B with the last code indicating problems with my antenna. I checked it, and it appears to be broken in 2 areas. The first code po705-00 indicates failure of the transmission control module; which is strange. There was a related recall in 2019, in which I did take my vehicle into a dealership, and it was supposed to have been taken care of. The code p1c86-92 has to do with the PRNDL Display Circuit Current Out Of Range. I now do not feel safe driving my car, and the dealerships can’t get me in to look at my car, so I’ve been calling all over the area to mechanics that specialize in transmission issues. I can’t in until Sept 6th, and that’s just for another diagnosis BEFORE ordering parts and giving me a quote. When I first had these issues, I began researching the codes. It seems that there are a LOT of people with Dodge Dart

In 2019 dodge had a shift cable bushing recall. I had it fixed in 2021 after owning the car for a few months (recall V34) . At this time, 2 years later, I’m experiencing the same problems that would be present with a faulty shift cable bushing which is a major safety concern. My car says it’s not in park when the shifter is indeed in park.

Car was towed into Dave's Corner Auto Care [XXX] . Customer complaint, had lost brake s ,pedel went all the way down to the floor.

Unknown, my car since ive got it has steadily ran way too hot for my comfort zone it does not redline. But it runs sometimes past 223-225 and i feel like i have to pull over and that is not safe. I have had it checked out NUNEROUS times and have been told nothing is wrong but genuinely that does not add up to me.

Driving down the highway my clutch started sticking, I was able to get it to keep driving at the time as it was unsafe and I was on 95 traveling south. My vehicle was looked at confirmed good and out of no where it entirely went, I then went ro a shop that refused to contact me napleton dodge in Florida while having my car in possession. Due to this entire out of no where no signs of issue on top of the company having ny car for a week and refusing to give me answers so I could try ro figure out ny car. My entire family was at risk as we were lucky to even make it safely to our location.

I've had 0 signs of clutch issues in my 2014 dart. All of a sudden. It went. A peice has some how out of no where just fell off resulting in barely able to move it. This went while on the highway out of no where while.driving.

There is oil coming from the brake booster vacuum pump into the brake booster. Caused the brake booster to fail. The recall stops in January but I think it should be extended

Parking Brake does not release caliper. Fault is in the caliper. The arm that the parking brake cable pulls does not return to the free position. I have replace 3 calipers on each side of the vehicle for the same issue. My wife had a 2015 Dodge Dart GT, I replaced 2 on hers before we sold it.

Less than 2 years after purchasing this vehicle brand new my car started consuming oil and actually caused my car to die in the middle of the road. Chrysler ended up completely replacing my engine due to scoring found in the pistons. In the last year I have done another oil consumption and feel just under the threshold of what Chrysler deems "bad enough". They did an update and it has not been a problem since. In the past few months I have been having issues with my car in park not releasing my key. My car will be in park and I can turn it back 1 notch and it gets stuck in the ACC position. Turns out my shifter cable was damaged and I have replaced that with a $500+ repair. Well unfortunately it didn't completely solve my problem and I will still occasionally have the issue and now they are stating I need to completely replace my shifter and knob assembly. The repairs don't seem to stop...

When placed into park the car does not register it's in park and therefore does not want to shut off. It can take up to 15 minutes to get it off. Seems dangerous since it keeps running and it starts to rev the engine.

When trying to park the car it doesn’t necessarily allow you to turn the car off without moving the shifter around until the car is satisfied and allows you to finally shut down. Also the radio seems to just shut off and on once and awhile.

Car has oil consumption issuwes wich will shut the entire car off.a recall fix was issued but the oil consumption still exists.a class action law suit was setteled but dodge is not extending engine replacement recall like they did once before.the care is a lemon and i feel unsafe to drive.i cant replace it or sell it due to this defect.

I had the V34 recall done on 1-2-2020 and now for the last 2 weeks 9-12 through 9-22-2022 my vehicle will not go into park properly. I am scared it will roll into a crash. I transport my grandchildren in this vehicle and I’m scared for their safety. Does this need another recall? I’m scared to drive this vehicle. I only have 45135 original miles on this vehicle! Is this vehicle a lemon?? I have had all recalls performed on this vehicle. Please let me know what is going to happen with this issue. Thank you in advance.

When driving vehicle at 40+ mph and making a turn the vehicle then stalls, loosing power and the transmission will not resume acceleration after turn is completed. We had to pull the vehicle off the road and out of traffic because of power loss. The vehicle check engine light was illuminated prior to experiencing problem. A dealership in Oklahoma City, OK confirmed a transmission malfunction code.

When I put my vehicle in park, the system doesn’t register that it’s in park and I cannot take out the key. It will show on the gear shift and the dash that my vehicle is in park but internally it doesn’t register.

1. Unknown, but podsibly the following: shifter mechanism, transmission linkage, and/or some other mechanism 2. The key is not releasing upon parking, this happens in dangerous areas and in compromising locations that have put my life at risk. I was unable to leave my car and a man with a knife approached me while I was facing this issue. It has happened several time and has happened another time with my husband also in the car and and a mentally ill man approached us as we tried to wait for the key to release. It is inconsistent and can take 0 seconds to 1 hour to release. 3. I showed the dealership near me during my recall repairs, and it happened once with them, but I'm unsure if they documented it. 4. The mechanism(s)/part(s) involved are not known, but the recent recall repair I had done involved a transmission bushing replacement. 5. It has not been inspected by any of the types of people stated, as I'm unsure how to even begin to have this checked out without it being an undue burden. This appears to be a massive issue with these vehicles, as there are many videos and forums online discussing the issue and no one has a consistent fix. Some say it's a plastic piece that must press a button to release the key. Some say it is a transmission linkage issue. No one has a universal answer for the same issue. 6. No signals, signs, or lights have ever appeared for this issue. It began in 2017 and I have had dozens of people look at it with no permanent solution. Today was the l

Unknown....transmission fluid reservoir was not holding the fluid and leaking it out and I didn't know of this til my car all of a sudden would not go as I pressed on the gas and then it jerk out of nowhere and it sped up all on its own and I almost rear ended the vehicle in front of me but I steered to side of road and it was still reving up and then stalled and I had no power steering power and brakes were hard to use. There was no pressure warning signs this car was running perfectly fine before this happened. No low fluid notification no check engine light or anything.

The passenger curtain air bags in the front and back seat exploded with no impact to the vehicle or an other vehicles involved in this incident. There were no issues of weather, street or road way hazard that could have interfered. I was driving normal, going straight and the air bags went off and the grab handle from the front seat hit me in the head when the air bag exploded and I passed out when I hit my head from the impact of the handle hitting me causing me to hit my head on my driver side window. I could have crashed and hurt myself and others from this incident. My windshield also cracked as well with no impact. My vehicle is available for inspection. I currently am having it inspected by my insurance. There were no light indictors or issues to the vehicle prior to this accident. Mercury Claims [XXX] Adjuster [XXX] ext [XXX] [XXX].

I was driving down a very steep hill when I lost all brakes in my vehicle. I took it to the shop and the said that oil had gotten into my my brakes master cylinder and it caused the brakes to go out. Luckily I drive a standard and I was able to stop by down shifting and using the hand brake. It was fixed. Not even a full year ago it happened again. I was at a stop light and I heard a very loud pop again and my brake light came on and an instant message flashed across my dash that I didn’t even have time to read that’s how quickly it happened. I once again took it to the same shop and it was the same issue. I have had Mopar in on this and reported it to them both times. I am afraid I will be driving my car and lose brakes at a high speed.

I was driving down a steep hill when I heard a loud pop and my brakes light came on and a message quickly flashed across my dash so fast I couldn’t even read it but I lost all brakes. Luckily I was driving a standard so I was able to down shift and use the hand brake to stop.

My engine is still shutting off randomly and they told me that there is a recall on my powertrain and all they did was reprogram it even though that is not helping my car it’s still shutting off or trying to shut off

Car engine is shutting off mid drive it car is not warmed up. And the parking mechanism is not going through when I try to park the car

The gear selected is saying that the car is park but it will not shut off . Had to move the shifter back and forward serval times before it stayed in park had this problem awhile don't think it was ever recalled. Thanks for your support in this matter

Clutch wouldn’t decompress and stuck to the floor. Couldn’t shift gear while I while driving and I had to pull over. Luckily there was no traffic at the time. Waiting for the dealership get back to me on a response. They haven’t checked it out yet. There was no warning lights or anything to indicate there was a problem.

Dodge has an active recall (R42) that matches the situation that happened to my car. My car switched into neutral while driving multiple times, at speeds 60+ and the dodge dealer diagnosed the issue as the tcm needing replaced. This happened several times, if there were people behind me they would have ran into me as my car jolted and decreased speeds rapidly, then shut off. My exact situation matches the recall except the vin is different, but it is the same make and model. However, dodge will not do anything about it, or warn customers.

I GOT A RECALL LETTER ON MY VEHICLE A FEW YEARS AGO REGARDING THE A POWERTRAIN ISSUE, AN ISSUE WITH THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE AND MOUNTING BRACKET. I AM SURE I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIRS. THE CAR IS NOW SHIFTING ITSELF INTO NEUTRAL WHILE I AM DRIVING, AND THE ONLY WAY TO GET IT TO DRIVE AGAIN IS TO SHIFT IT INTO REVERSE, THEN NEUTRAL AND BACK INTO DRIVE, YOU CAN SEE HOW THIS WOULD BE A PROBLEM WHEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. I HAVE CHECKED THE RECALL INFORMATION ON VEHICLE AND IT SAYS IT HAS BEEN REPAIRED, BUT THE ISSUES IS STILL VERY PRESENT. IT ALWAYS HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING, IT WILL SOMETIMES HAPPEN AS SOON AS I PULL THE CAR OUT OF PARK.

I PUT IN A COMPLAINT BACK IN 2019 ABOUT USING TO MUCH OIL AND MY CAR ACTING FUNNY. NOW THE CAR WILL JUMP/JERK WHEN YOU PUT ON THE GAS AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON AND THE ENGINE LIGHT.

SO WE WERE DRIVING THE ROADS WERE WET AND IT WAS SNOWING AS WE SWITCHED LANES WE LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY SPUN ABOUT 10 TIMES AND HIT A CEMENT BARRIER AT ABOUT 40 MILES HIT THE FRONT OF THE CAR AND THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AT ALL .

BAD MOTOR MOUNTS, VEHICLE WAS VIBRATING WHILE DRIVING. WHILE IDLING VEHICLE FEELS NORMAL BUT IF ACCELERATOR IS PRESSED THE ENTIRE VEHICLE SHAKES.

IT SEEMS WHEN IT IS COOL OUTSIDE WHEN WE CRANK OUR DODGE DART THAT IT SPUTTERS AND SOMETIMES DIES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY SOMETIMES FAILING TO RESTART NOBODY CAN SEEM TO TELL ME WHY IT DOES THIS AND I DON'T WANT A CAR I CAN'T TRUST NOT TO GET MY WIFE AND KIDS HURT OR KILLED

THE CLUTCH PEDAL BEGAN OCCASIONALLY STICKING, SOMETIMES ALL THE WAY IN TO THE FLOOR, OTHER TIMES HALFWAY AND MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SHIFT. AFTER TAKING IT TO THE DEALER THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER. THE ISSUE QUICKLY DETERIORATED, WHERE IT WAS HAPPENING ALL OF THE TIME. NOW WHEN I START THE CAR WITH THE CLUTCH IN, THE SAFETY ALLOWS ME TO START THE CAR, BUT THE CAR IMMEDIATELY BEGINS TO MOVE AS IF THE CLUTCH IS NOT DEPRESSED IF STARTED IN FIRST GEAR, AND THEN I CANNOT SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL AND NEED TO EITHER BE READY TO GO OR SHUT THE ENGINE OFF SO AS NOT TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THERE ARE NO REPLACEMENT PARTS AVAILABLE IN THE MARKETPLACE AND THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION TO HAVE THE CAR BEING TO MOVE AS SOON AS IT IS STARTED AND NOT BE ABLE TO SHIFT BACK INTO NEUTRAL. I FEAR THERE WILL BE SEVERAL ACCIDENTS CAUSED BY THIS FOR ANYONE NOT FULLY AWARE WHEN STARTING THEIR CAR.

P0706 TCM ISSUE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION GOING INTO LIMP MODE WON'T GO INTO DRIVE SOMETIMES.

2014 DODGE DART PURCHASED NEW. WAS DRIVING VEHICLE ON CITY STREET AND CAME TO STOP AND CAR JUST STALLED ON ME WITH NO WARNING WHICH WAS VERY SCARY. VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP STALLING SO TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND THE TECHNICIAN SAID IT WOULD COST AT LEAST A THOUSAND TO TAKE CAR APART AS THEY BELIEVE IT IS A INTERNAL ENGINE PROBLEM. IT SUCKS CAUSE NOW MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND BY DOING SOME SEARCHING LOOKS LIKE THIS IS NOT A NEW PROBLEM TO DODGE BUT NOTHING WAS EVER DONE ABOUT IT. MY CAR IS IN GREAT CONDITION WITH ONLY 60,000 MILES.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IDLING AT A STOP LIGHT BEHIND SEVERAL OTHER VEHICLES. I WAS FEELING HOT SO I TURNED OFF THE HEATER AND DIRECTLY AFTER SMOKE FLOODED THE CABIN. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I PROCEEDED FORWARD AS FAST AS POSSIBLE TO THE PARKING LOT AND THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE WHERE THE COOLING SYSTEM RESERVOIR WAS NEAR THE UPPER TOP CORNER OF THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS OFF AND IT SOUNDED LIKE THE FANS/ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING DESPITE THE KEY BEING REMOVED.

I NEED TO GET MY SHIFTER CABLE BUSHING REPLACED AND MY THERMOSTAT HOUSING IS MESSING UP CONSTANTLY

CAR SPONTANEOUSLY STALLED IN HIGHWAY DRIVING. SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE. 2013 DARTS WERE ACTUALLY RECALLED OVER THE ISSUE. INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS. DODGE SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO RECALL THE 2014S JUST LIKE THEY RECALLED THE 2013S.

VEHICLE STALLS WHILE DRIVING, HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES. PLENTY OF FUEL AND OIL LEVEL IS WITHIN OPERATIONAL STANDARDS.
