2013 Dodge Dart Complaint Log

First is the cruise control - it sometimes work, sometimes does not. But when it does, it will at times kick on and off while in use. Scary at times. The next is the loss of power on the freeway. there are times when it will just bog down and not accelerate. other times it will catch and shift hard, other times will jerk. when these times occur, the check engine light comes on. But then will go off after a period of minutes.

While pressing down on the brake , it became very hard to fully pushed down . Makes a noise that sounds like air is being pushed through while the brake is being pressed down . Delayed stops due to it being so hard to press the brake down . Brake light comes on along with “Service Electric Braking System” on dashboard .

I was backing out of the driveway to go to work and my car suddenly stopped. All the lights on the shifter had turned red and moving the shifter did nothing. I restarted the car and everything worked normally but I am concerned about my car doing it again while driving on a busy road and put mine and other drivers safety in jeopardy. The car is available for inspection at any time. There were no other inspections or warning signs of this happening.

The contact owns a 2013 Dodge Dart. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked unattended it rolled down the driveway into the neighbor's property and crashed into a tree. There were no reported injuries, fire or police report filed. The vehicle is at the contact's residents. The contact called the local dealer who informed her about NHTSA Campaign number 19V293000 (Power Train). The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 145,000.

Car suddenly shuts off

The incident that occurred involved my clutch and transmission. I had purchased the car (8/17/2021)about 2 weeks before complete failure. Everything was going fine until I entered the freeway (8/26/2021)and after driving around 5 miles in 6th gear doing about 65 with no initial issues, I started to smell something burning. I immediately looked for the safest way to get out of traffic. While slowing, gears weren’t shifting and I was basically stuck in neutral. I only had control of brakes and steering wheel which caused me to have to make extremely dangerous evasive maneuvers. Once safe, I was able to find the source of the smoke. Which turned out to be dot 3 from where, what I think is the slave cylinder connects to the top of the transmission. I was able to remove it to check for damage/defection. It was dripping dot 3 and I didn’t see any noticeable defects. Plugged it back. Tried to drive and the clutch engages to start vehicle/change gears. But gears were able to change without clutch as well. Yet i couldn’t get out of neutral. Towed it home, next day clutch pedal was on the floor with no pressure. All components are available for inspection upon request, the safety of everyone involved was put at risk due to me not having any control of anything but the brakes and steering; with no warning or idea of what could be wrong due to the instantaneous nature of the disastrous incident. On a public highway with people going speeds of up to 85 mph. I have not been able to get confirmation or reproduction by anyone. I have not had any inspection due to my lack of knowledge on this process. There was no warning light or indication that the incident was going to happen until I had limited-no control.

A recall on the shifter cable bushing was said to be completed on 01/15/20 at Shelor Motor Mile, Christiansburg, VA. On 08/21/21, the bushing broke and came off the shifter cable, leaving the car stuck in gear. In between the time of the alleged recall repair and this happening (~18 months), my car was driven from 40,000 to 60,000 miles. I believe the dealer dishonestly said they fixed the recall to pocket money and banking it wouldn’t fail in my car. This was a safety issue to me and could have been much worse. A recalled part that was fixed should not have failed less than 2 years and 20,000 miles later. I am now left to fix the repairs on my own. This dealer should be investigated to ensure others are getting their recalls properly taken care of so it is not a threat to their life/property.

The contact owns a 2013 Dodge Dart. The contact stated that when the vehicle was stopped at a red light or stop sign, it loss motive power and the transmission would inadvertently shift into neutral. The dealer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that there was a recall repaired in 2018, for the transmission control module relating to the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 77,890.

Car in park with emergency brake on abs will not turn off. Says vehicle not in park. Took several times shifting back and forth to get the car to turn off.

The contact owns a 2013 Dodge Dart. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V800000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic) and 19V293000 (Power Train) however, the parts to do the recall repairs were unavailable. The local dealer confirmed that parts were not yet available. The contact stated that the brake pedal was soft while depressed and hesitated to respond while driving. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The dealer was notified of the failure and advised the contact that they would follow up with her once the parts were available. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 65,000. Parts distribution disconnect

Upon investigation, the contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V542000 (Power Train). The vehicle was repaired however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was informed of failure and told the contact that they were unable to assist. The failure mileage was approximately 105,000.

automatic shifter cable bushing failed causing me to be stuck in a parking lot in park (P) and not shift gears. gear shift moved but did not actually shift leaving me stuck. bushing under hood connected to trans when first investigated by myself, was in fact connected just fine with no issues to be seen. issued was identified to be the bushing failing under the actual gear shifter itself after the dealership tore my car apart. the tech manually put my car in drive so I could drive it to the dealership to have them fully diagnose the problem and just that is &100. dodge dealership tells me that the recall was completed in may of 2020 on only the bushing connecting to the transmission under the hood. dealership wants $620 to replace the full cable and bushings because the bushing under gear shifter was not replaceable nor does it pertain to the end under the hood end. I was told by the dealership the only fix is to have the entire cable was replaced which is ridiculous knowing there has been a recall on this same issue but now its the bushing at the shifter. I am very lucky to be parked and not moving. absolutely no known warning lights/messages/symptoms to be known this would happen.if there is a recall on one end of the bushing why is there no recall on the opposite end of cable connected to the gear shifter?

I have a 2013 Dodge Dart that's been having issues since i got the car. First my transmission goes out, get a new one 02/21 then 7/21 service transmission. Take my car to the shop the TCM needs to be replace. My car would start and move than all of sudden i can't move Auto Stick unavailable shift to N then D then my car is stuck. I can't move only can drift. This is crazy I see that the Dodge Dart has 6 recall and i only received recall postcard for bushel cords? My car is having the same problems the recall was inplace for but my car doesn't qualify? My life don't matter huh? The car doesn't have many miles on the car, i service my car (oil changes, tires rotated and replace) I just don't understand. Someone is going to get hurt driving these Dodge Darts.

I bought my 2013 Dodge Dart (I bought it used and out of warranty-it is now a little over 100,000 miles). My girlfriend was driving it down a four lane highway when all of a sudden the car came to a complete stop, it wouldn’t go into drive, reverse or parks, my girlfriend had to push the car off of a four lane highway and out of the way of oncoming traffic. The accelerator would not work, and it said "service transmission". I looked it up and it's a recall issue (recall R42) for Dodge Darts made between 2013 and 2015 Darts with a 1.4l engine and a dry dial clutch transmission (I have this model). I got it to a local dealership (who said the recall was fixed in august 2016) and they've had it for almost a week and called today and said there are no issues with the transmission and that it's driving fine that the only issue they see would be the spark plugs. (Spark plugs wouldn't cause all of that). This is a safety issue that could’ve caused an accident, my family was in the car and had they crashed and my family got hurt Stellantis/Chrysler wouldn’t hold any accountability. The recall customer service center claims it is their policy that after a recall there is a two year warranty and that I had passed that two year mark, regardless of the same parts malfunctioning from the previous recall I would be responsible to pay for the transmission control module being replaced. I work at the Belvidere Assembly Plant that produced the Dodge Darts, this is how they treat their customers and employees. I’ve taken good care of all the routine maintenance, The car is under 10 years old and the recall should be taken care of.

The windshield wipers do not turn off no matter what . Nothing was wrong with them before . It started all a sudden when I would signal. Then then they stayed on. I have read many others Dodge Dart owners have the same issue. . I have seen there is a recall for the 2016 but not the 2013 that has the same issues.

Failure in The transmission control module (tcm) causing the car to shift to neutral when driving and also not letting the car shift to any other gear past 2nd my safety and others are at risk because I can be rear ended due to it randomly going into neutral it has been confirmed by many mechanics and there are warning lights such as the check engine light confirming it

The failure was when i was shifting gear .so i shifted 5 to 4,3,2 and thats when it stayed in 2 gear .i exit the freeway and drove the street to my home .the vechicle at that point only travel 21 mph .2 years prior i had a similar issue on the freeway and my kids where with me at the time of the failure. So i had to pull to the shoulder and try to encounter the issue at a peaceful way .like i said i had my kids with me and 9:45 p.m. .so i tooked me 2 hours to move the vehicle to a safer place and had my friend give me a ride home .next day i have the tow truck picked up the vehicle and take it to dodge dealer .they fixed it with no charge towards me .but now this second time they are not trying to help out .either Toyota who sold the car .or dodge the dealer.or Chrysler the manufacturer wont help.and dodge is saying the vehicle requires a new motor at the cost of $13,000 dollars.

I was trying to use the windshield washer while driving home and the wipers turned on but no fluid came out. I assumed I was out of fluid and tried to turn the wipers off to find they stayed on while when I put them in the off position. I tried to change the speed of the wipers and they just stayed in the normal on speed no matter what setting I set them at including off. So for the next 40 miles I drove into the sun on a 90 degree day with the wipers on. There were no warning lights or anything. I took it to the repair shop and they assessed that it was the wiper functions on the multifunction switch malfunctioned, even though the turn signal and headlight functions remained intact, and the switch needed to be replaced, a part that costs $497.66. I decided against the repair at the time and they disconnected the wiper motor for me so the wipers were not continuously on and potentially ruining the windshield, although leaving me completely blind if it were to start to rain. I have since traded in the vehicle for another one so I can't offer it up for inspection but I can get you my records.

On June 16, 2021 I exited a parking lot and joined a line of traffic that was stopped for a stoplight. Traffic began to move and as I stepped on the accelerator the engine started ROARING and the car accelerated uncontrollably across the opposite lane and into a utility pole. It was totaled and I was left badly bruised by the airbag explosion; I have also found I have strange noises in my ears and am seeing an otolaryngologist for that. The car has ben disposed of and I don't know where it is. I am fortunate that there was no oncoming traffic, no one was on the sidewalk and I was the sole occupant of the vehicle. The only one who may have inspected the car was the insurance adjuster. There was no warning of any kind and I had never experienced this before.

The contact owns a 2013 Dodge Dart. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to accelerate and loss motive power with the accelerator pedal depressed. The vehicle is not drivable. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. Neither the manufacturer nor dealer was notified of the failure. The contact mentioned NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V542000 (Power Train), 13V238000 (Power Train) as possible solutions to the failure however, the Vin was not included. The failure mileage was approximately 77,286.

06/08/2021. My daughter stopped to gas up at Costco when a notice came up on the dash "Engage Parking Brake to prevent Rollback". She immediately called me to make me aware of it. Once home she again get this message. 06/09/2021. My daughter drove to school with no issues. However, leaving school she was going slowly over a speed bump when the car automatically shifted into PARK. She lost acceleration and the car rolled backwards off of the speed bump while she was wrestling with controlling the steering. The car shuts off and she was unable to start it again. She immediately called me and told me the message displayed again from yesterday "Engage Parking Brake to prevent Rollback". Now the car won't start. I am now on my way to the school when she calls me back to say it started and she is on her way home. I told her to be very careful. 06/10/2021. I drove the car while my daughter followed me to the dealership. On the way to the dealership at every stop the message displayed "Engage Parking Brake to prevent Rollback". While at the dealership I explained the problem and I had brought all repair documents that stated the same issue occurred in a repair with my son (twice), with me, and now with my daughter. It all stem from gear shift cable/bushings/TCM/transmission, which then was covered under warranty or recall. I emphatically didn't want to waste time with a diagnostic when I am sure its related to past repairs. The service tech was trying to convince me it could be something else and the diagnostics will tell them the true cause. I was reluctant but agreed for the diagnostic. I did state that what that diagnostic will show is that the transmission/recall is faulty. 06/11/21. The service tech called me to say the car coded P07B4 [Park Positioning Sensor]. However he never called it a Transmission Park Positioning Sensor because in my opinion this part should be covered under the transmission warranty (see Manual - Parts Covered - Transmission:).

FCA has issued Customer Satisfaction Notification (W20) regarding excessive oil consumption for vehicles equipped with the 2.4L MultiAir engine. It does not currently cover the 2013 model year Dodge Dart. I have a 2013 Dodge Dart that seems to have this problem. I have to continuously monitor the engine oil level and add as needed. The amount is inconsistent and you will never know if the level will fall low enough to stall the engine between the times that the level is checked. My complaint is that FCA should expand the notification to include all model years that are equipped with this engine. Attached is a copy of the W20 I received for my 2014 Dart which does not have the problem. I bought the 2013 without knowing it had this problem.

The contact owns a 2013 Dodge Dart. The contact stated the vehicle was shifted into park and the turned off however, the key remained stuck in the ignition. The contact stated that the failure recurred several times causing the battery to be drained. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the ignition switch was not making good contact and needed to be repaired. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000.

I have had repeated transmission problems with my 2013 Dodge Dart. The first time it went out was at 14k miles then again at 16k. Even after fixing it, it would downshift very violently at times. At 85k it went out again with no warning in the middle of a five lane highway. It took several times of the dealer trying to repair it for them to get it to drive without it just going into neutral and not move. The transmission worked but there was still a jerking when it downshifted. The shifter went out at 136K. They ended up replacing the whole shifting mechanism to make it work. Several times in the last four years it would go into neutral while driving and would rev up really high. I would ask at the dealership and they would say they couldn’t find anything. At 172K the transmission just stopped working and it says “gear not found”. The dealership says that the repairs are now more than the car is worth. So frustrating!

Despite saying there are no open recalls on my vehicle it does seem to malfunction the same as the last recall. The vehical got stuck in drive last week and had to use the emergency brake to keep it from rolling. After having it towed (friday) to my dealership and manual override to put it in park, it acted normal. The car was looked at the following morning and they could not get it to malfunction. I picked it Monday because I have a warranty that will cover it but they can't do anything unless it is acting up. Today I went to go to tue store and it is stuck in park. I just want to make sure that if any cars were missed in the last recall it can be addressed. Or if it is one of the included vehicles, figure out if it was actually repaired.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS CAME ON ONE DAY AFTER USING THE TURN SIGNAL AND HAVE NOT SHUT OFF. MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH HAS BEEN REPLACED AND ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED. CURRENTLY THE WIPER MOTOR IS DISCONNECTED TO PREVENT WIPERS FROM RUNNING CONTINUOUSLY. DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE HAS TOLD ME THERE IS NO RECALL AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. DEALERSHIP WANTS MONEY TO RUN DIAGNOSTIC AND THEN MORE MONEY FOR LABOR TO FIX THE ISSUE THEY FIND. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR DISTRACTION AND VISIBILITY FOR THE DRIVER.

I WAS DRIVING AND WHILE I WAS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC SO I TEND TO ALWAYS PUT IT IN THE N POSITION SO THAT I CAN REST MY LEG WHILE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IS ON AND ONCE TRAFFIC STARTED TO MOVE I ATTEMPTED TO PUT IT IN THE D POSITION TO MOVE FORWARD AND STARTED TO NOTICE A IT TO BE DIFFICULT TO MOVE THE AUTOMATIC STICK BUT DID NOT REALLY THINK MUCH OF IT BUT I KNEW ONCE I GET BACK INTO MY STATE I WOULD TAKE IT TO GET LOOKED AT. ONCE ON THE INTERSTATE HIGH WAY OF A 3-HOUR DRIVE, I STARTED TO WORRY SINCE MY CAR SOUNDED LIKE IF I HAD A ROCK BOUNCING IN MY TRANSMISION SO APROCHING TO A TOLL PAY STAND I DECIDED TO PUT IT ON N POSITION TO KEEP IT RUNNING BUY MAKE A STOP ON THE SIDE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO SO I TRY TO PUT IT ON D AGAIN TO SEE IF IT RESPONDED AND THAT WAS WHAT MADE US KNOW WE WERE IN TROUBLE. I COULD NOT CONTROL MY DODGE DART.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR MADE A LOUD NOISE AND JERKED REALLY HARD. MY CAR STARTED SLOWING DOWN AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE RPM'S JUST KEPT RIVING UP BUT CAR WAS NOT GOING ANY FASTER. IT HAS DONE THIS TWICE IN THE PAST WEEK. THE DEALERSHIP PUT IT ON THE COMPUTER AND RAN SOME TESTS AND CLEARED OUT ALL CODES AND UPDATED SOME STUFF AND TOLD ME TO LET HI KNOW IF THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. WELL ON THE WAY HOME THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND DID THE SAME THING AND JERKED REALLY HARD MAKING MY CAR SLOW DOWN AND NOT ACCELERATE. THE CODE SAYS THE PCM/TCM BUT IT FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING OUT. IT ACTS LIKE IT DOESNT WANT TO SHIFT INTO THE NEXT GEAR.

Car constantly stalls while driving and goes into neutral while driving as well. Recently, I was meeting up with my husband and I came to a red light and my car wouldn’t stop. My car finally stopped in time thank God; but when I went on to continue driving the car would not move or shift into other gears. Police came and car got towed, huge safety concern!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE DART. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE STOPPED ON AN INCLINE, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT PROPERLY ACCELERATE FORWARD.

I WAS DRIVING HOME WHEN I TURNED THE CORNER TO PROCEED ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR WOULD NOT SPEED UP. I TRIED SEVERAL TIMES AND IT WAS ONLY REVING UP THE ENGINE LIKE IT WAS STUCK. I WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY GAIN SPEED BUT NO MORE THEN 45 MPH. WHEN I WOULD TRY TO GAIN SPEED IT WOULD REACH HIGH RPMS BUT NOT GO ANYWHERE BUT THEN IT WOULD JERK HARD AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS MAKING LOUD CLANKING NOISES LIKE GEARS SHIFTING MORE THEN THEY SHOULD. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHICH IT GOES OFF AND ON ALL THE TIME. I HAVE ALSO BEEN PUTTING MORE OIL IN THE CAR THEN I'VE EVER HAD TO DO. IT IS USING OIL AND THE GAS FUMES ARE STILL HORRIBLE FROM MY LAST COMPLAINT AND I AM NOT GETTING GOOD GAS MILEAGE LIKE USUAL THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED, BUT THE FAILURE RECCURRED.

CLUTCH SLAVE/THROWOUT BEARING FAILURE 3 TIMES IN LESS THAN 100K MILES. EACH TIME CAUSES CONTIMINATION OF CLUTCH/FLYWHEEL AND 10 HOURS TO REPLACE. THE PART IS FAULTY AND HAS NOT BEEN REVISED WITH A PART THAT CAN SURVIVE REGULAR USE. ALSO TRANSMISSION FAILURE BEFORE 100K AS WELL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE DART. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE HESITATED AND WAS HARD TO STEER WHILE THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PEP BOYS (2903 US-1, FORT PIERCE, FL 34982) TO BE DIAGNOSED HOWEVER, THE DIAGNOSTIC RESULT WAS STILL PENDING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 90,000.

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS EITHER IN MOTION OR WHILE IDLE, THE CLIMATE CONTROL WILL PERIODICALLY NOT FUNCTION AT ALL. OTHER TIMES WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED ON, IT WILL ONLY FUNCTION AT A HIGH SETTING. THE SEAT WARMERS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND THE BLUETOOTH DOES NOT WORK AT ALL. OCCASIONALLY, THE CRUISE CONTROL BUTTON WILL WORK TO TURN THE FUNCTION ON, HOWEVER, SETTING OR RESETTING THE CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK AT ALL WHILE IN MOTION.

PARKING BRAKE ON MY 2013 DODGE DART 1.4L TURBO LIMITED DOES NOT HOLD MY VEHICLE IN PLACE. I HAVE ADJUSTED THE CABLE SEVERAL TIMES AND HAVE REPLACED BOTH REAR CALIPERS. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE PARKING BRAKE MECHANISM GETS STUCK IN THE LOADED/PARKED POSITION AND WILL NOT RETURN TO IT RESTING POSITION. I HAVE HAD TO APPLY LUBRICANT TO IT AND MANIPULATE BACK AND FORTH TO FREE IT, AFTER DOING THIS I HAD TO ADJUST THE CABLE UNDER THE CONSOLE. MY CAR IS A MANUAL 6 SPEED TRANSMISSION AND IT WOULD NICE TO HAVE A PARKING BRAKE THAT WOULD NOT HAVE TO ADJUST CONSTANTLY.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS OUT OF GEAR.

THE SHIFTER LINKAGE BUSHING BROKE AND FELL FROM THE HOUSING RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE TO BE STUCK IN REVERSE. VEHICLE WAS PARKED AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE.

AFTER RECEIVING MY CAR FROM THE DEALERSHIP THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SO I CONTACTED THEM ABOUT IT AND HE HOOKED IT UP TP MACHINE TOLD ME TO WATCH FOR THE LIGHT AGAIN AND LET HIM KNOW. I DONT DRIVE MY CAR MUCH SO IT WAS ABOUT A WEEK LATER WHEN I NOTICED THE ENGINE LIGHT AGAIN SO I TOOK IT TO OREILLEY'S AND THE CODE P2096 WHICH IS FUEL TO RATIO WHICH HAS BEEN A PROBLEM MORE THEN I CAN COUNT. MY CAR ALWAYS SMELLS LIKE GAS FUMES THAT'S WHY I TRY NOT TO DRIVE IT UNLESS I CAN KEEPS WINDOWS DOWN BECAUSE THE SMELL IS VERY STRONG. I WAS DRIVING TODAY AND IT KEPT STALLING AND WHEN II WOULD START TO GO FROM A DEAD STOP ONCE IT SHIFTED INTO 2ND IT WOULD JERK REAL HARD LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS MESSED UP AGAIN. THE LIGHT OF COURSE COMES BACK ON AFTER THEY CLEAR UT OUT AND IT MAY HAVE SAME CODE OR IT MAY BE DIFFERENT EACH TIME. I AM TIRED OF RISKING MY LIFE AND OTHERS BECAUSE NO ONE WANTS TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM I'VE HAD FOR 6 YEARS NOW AND HAVE SO MANY ODI COMPLAINTS WITH NHTSA AND COMPLAINTS WITH FCA I COULD HAVE MY OWN CAR COMPLAINT WEBSITE. I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THEM TAKE MY CAR IN FOR TESTING OF QUIALITY OF CARS AND PROVE TO EVERYONE THIS WAS A LEMON CAR NO IF, ANDS, OR BUTTS ABOUT IT. THERE IS 1 IN HOWEVER MANY CARS THAT ARE LEMONS AND THIS IS ONE OF THEM.550 DAYS IN THE SHOP BEING FIXED THAT MANY TIMES THAT FOR MORE THEN AN ENTIRE YEAR MY CAR WAS BEING WORKED ON. SHOULD THAT BE ENOUGH OR IS SOMEONES LIFE GONNA BE WHAT OPENS EYES. I'VE GOT ,MORE DOCUMENTS TO SHOW THE MANY MANY PROBLEMS I HAVE HAD AND HAVE PASSED THEM ALONG TO MY ATTORNEY SO IF SOMETHING HAPPENS IN RESULT OF THIS UNSAFE CAR THERE WILL BE ACTION TAKEN.

THE CLUTCH SUNK IN - GOT STUCK - AND IT DID NOT RETRACT. I HAD TO PHYSICALLY RETRACT THE CLUTCH WITH MY FOOT IN ORDER TO SUCCESSFULLY SWITCH GEARS WHILST I WAS DRIVING ON A FREEWAY WHERE THE COMMON SPEED IS 70+ MPHS. THIS CONTINUED AS I WAS TRYING TO REDUCE THE SPEED IN ORDER TO EXIT THE FREEWAY FOR SAFETY. THIS HAS NOT BEEN THE FIRST TIME AND IT HAPPENED TO ME - BUT THIS IS THE MOST RECENT ACCOUNT OF EVENTS. USUALLY WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION.

MY 2013DODGE DART CRANKS BUT WONT START THIS HAPPENED SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING

I WAS DRIVING OVER A MOUNTAIN PASS WHEN I GOT A MESSAGE "GEAR NOT AVAILABLE" AFTER PUTTING ON THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN. THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT GO THROUGH THE GEARS. I TURNED AROUND AND WENT HOME WITH VEHICLE BARELY GOING THROUGH GEARS WHEN SLOWED AND THEN SPEEDING UP. I HAD NO REVERSE WHEN STOPPED TO HAVE CHECKED AND LEAVING THE PARKING LOT. I HAD PROBLEMS GETTING BACK UP TO DRIVING SPEED AFTER SLOWING DOWN.

The contact owns a 2013 Dodge Dart. The contact stated that after releasing the parking brake, the rear passenger’s side brake vault release failed to return to its original position. The contact had to release the brake manually by going underneath the vehicle and using a crowbar. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where it was diagnosed that the actuator had seized, and the caliper needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigation, the contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 13V124000 (Parking Brake) however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 97,000.

JUST CALL ME PLEASE

MY DODGE DART WIPERS REMAIN TURNED ON, WITH NO ABILITY TO CONTROL THE SPEEDS OR USE WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID. AFTER INSPECTING, THE CONTROL RIBBON CABLE RUBS AGAINST PLASTIC WHENEVER BLINKERS ARE USED. THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE AND ALMOST CAUSED A CRASH WHEN DRIVING IN BAD WEATHER. DODGE NEEDS A RECALL BECAUSE OF THIS DESIGN. I CAN HAVE THE PART REPLACED, HOWEVER IT COULD JUST REOCCUR AGAIN. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 44,000 MILES

THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN REPLACED THE RECALLS ALL HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF MULTIPLE TIMES AND YET THE SAME PROBLEM I NEED A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE I'VE SPENT WAY MORE THAN THE VEHICLES WORTH

The seat belt warning light will continue to beep and flash when someone is in the seat and has the seatbelt on, also my car is unable to be parked for more than one day without starting it or it drains the battery and then has to be jump started with another car for it to run again and then the battery has to be replaced this seems like a serious defect the car should be able to sit for at least a couple days and be fine and this is during regular temperature times also so it's very strange it definitely seems like electrical issues.

MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND WASHERS WON'T TURN ON ANYMORE. AND I'VE SEARCHED UP THIS PROBLEM TO TRY TO FIX IT, BUT IT SEEMS THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WHO HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL OF CAR. IT CAN CAUSE MAJOR ACCIDENTS DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE DURING HEAVY RAINS BECAUSE THE I COULDN'T TURN ON THE WIPERS TO WIPE THE RAIN WATERS AWAY. DRIVING BACK FROM WARREN, IN TO FORT WAYNE, IN WAS A SCARY TRIP THROUGH THE I-69 SOUTH AND US 33 S ROUTE, THE HEAVY RAIN BLINDED AND COVERED EVERYTHING ON THE WINDSHIELD, AND THE ROADS AND OTHER MV WAS HARDLY ABLE TO SEE, ALL I CAN SEE WAS A GLIMPSE OF BLURRY YELLOW LIGHTS FROM THE SEMI TRUCKS. PLEASE HAVE THIS RECALL, IT'S VERY IMPORTANT.

THE CAR ONLY HAS 65,374 MILES ON IT AND IT NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION.
