2014 Dodge Dart Complaint Log

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE DART. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO LOSE POWER. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER AND NOTICED THAT THE BATTERY WARNING INDICATOR WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO START THE IGNITION AND HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,405.

WHEN PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK, THE CAR DOESN'T TURN OFF. WE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER TO GET A RECALL DONE, BUT THE PROBLEM WAS NEVER FIXED. I THINK DODGE JUST SENT THE NOTICE AND LIED ABOUT HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER, SURESKY, WANTED TO CHARGE TO HAVE THE DIAGNOSTICS DONE ON THE CAR, BUT SINCE THE RECALL WAS NEVER FIXED, I DON'T WANT TO PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSTICS. THE SAME PROBLEM STILL EXISTS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE DART. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH AND DEPRESSING THE CLUTCH PEDAL TO SWITCH GEARS, THE CLUTCH PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD AND DID NOT RAISE BACK UP. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,687.

STARTING AT AROUND 50,000 MILES MY VEHICLE HAS CONSTANT PROBLEMS WITH THE ENGINE OVER HEATING. I BOUGHT IT INTO THE SHOP IN AUGUST FOR THIS PROBLEM. THEY REPLACED SOME CLAMP AND SAID THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. IN SEPTEMBER THE CAR WAS OVERHEATING AGAIN. I NOTICED THE COOLANT WAS VERY LOW SO I FILLED IT AND THAT SEEMED TO WORK. THEN IN OCTOBER THE ENGINE TOO HOT LIGHT CAME ON, AGAIN. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE SHOP. THEY REPLACED THE RADIATOR CAP AND SAID THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. THEN ONE WEEK LATER THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON FOR A CYLINDER 2 MISS FIRE. I GET THAT REPAIRED AND THEN THE VERY SAME DAY THE ENGINE TOO HOT LIGHT COMES ON. REFILL THE COOLANT AGAIN. THERE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE A LEAK AND NO ONE CAN SEEM TO FIND ANY INTERNAL PROBLEMS OR SIGNS OF INTERNAL LEAKING YET THE CAR JUST KEEPS OVER HEATING AND NOW ITS JUST A GUESSING GAME AS TO WHEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN. EVERY TIME IT HAS HAPPENED IT HAS BEEN AT DIFFERENT AMOUNTS OF MOVEMENT. THE FIRST TIME I WAS STATIONARY. THE SECOND TIME I WAS GOING SLOW. THE THIRD TIME WAS ON THE HIGHWAY.

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE IN JULY OF 2014. IN MARCH OF 2017, I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM A TRIP OUT OF TOWN, WHEN THE VEHICLE LOST THE MEANS TO ACCELERATE. THE CAR WOULD ONLY REV, AND NOT ENGAGE IN ANY GEAR. I COASTED INTO A GAS STATION, WHERE I HAD TO WAIT FOR A TOW TRUCK TO TRANSPORT THE CAR TO THE DEALER. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER, RESERVOIR, AND CLUTCH KIT ALL HAD TO BE REPLACED, TO THE TUNE OF > $2000. I ESCALATED TO FCA UNDER THE X62 TSB, AND MY REPAIRS, AND A RENTAL WERE PROVIDED. NOW YESTERDAY, 9/9/19 AT 9:00AM, MY CLUTCH IS COMING DISENGAGED WHILE ACCELERATING, IN ALL 6 GEARS, 15-65 MPH AND I DROVE IT STRAIGHT TO THE DEALER. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE WARRANTY PERIOD ON THE PREVIOUS REPAIR EXPIRED 4 MONTHS AGO. I WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT THE PARTS WHICH FAILED PREVIOUSLY WERE REPLACED WITH ORIGINAL PARTS, WHICH WOULD LEAD TO ADDITIONAL FAILURE. IN DOING MY OWN RESEARCH, THE 2014 DODGE DART MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS ARE EQUIPPED WITH A CLUTCH DELAY VALVE. THE INTENTION OF THE CDV IS TO HELP INEXPERIENCED DRIVERS, BUT IN REALITY IS MAKES LAUNCHING JERKY, QUICK SHIFTING DIFFICULT, AND PREMATURE CLUTCH WEAR A REAL POSSIBILITY.

WHEN TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE, I EXPERIENCED SHAKING IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND A RUMBLE NOISE. I THOUGHT IT WAS A WHEEL BEARING BUT MY MECHANIC HAS DIAGNOSED IT AS THE RIGHT FRONT CV AXLE SHAFT, CENTER SUPPORT BEARING NEEDING REPLACED.

MY SHIFTER CABLE HAS BROKE ON MY CAR. I'M BEING TOLD THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS PART BUT THERE IS NOTHING DODGE CAN DO ABOUT THIS UNTIL NOVEMBER DUE TO NOT HAVING A PART YET. THEREFORE I AM STUCK WITH A UNDRIVABLE 2014 CAR THAT CANT BE FIXED AND NO ONE WILL DO ANYTHING TO HELP ME FIX IT NOR WILL THEY PUT ME IN A RENTAL UNTIL THE PART COMES IN. I'VE ALSO BEEN TOLD THEY CANT DO ANYTHING TO GET THE CAR BACK ON THE ROAD UNTIL THE PART COMES IN. I'M CONFUSED AS TO WHY I HAVE EVEN GOTTEN A RECALL NOTICE ON A PART DODGE CAN NOT FIX OR WHY THEY CANT AT LEAST GET MY CAR FIXED ENOUGH TO BE ON THE ROAD UNTIL THIS PART COMES IN. THIS WILL BE MY FIRST AND LAST DODGE AND I WILL FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THE BBB AS WELL.

MY VEHICLE HAS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION, A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO WITHOUT ANY WARNING WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY DOING ABOUT 60-65 MILES PER HOUR, MY CLUTCH DROPPED TO THE FLOOR AND I STARTED SMELLING MY CLUTCH BURNING. I DID NOT HAVE MY FOOT ON THE CLUTCH BECAUSE I WAS ALREADY IN SIXTH GEAR ON THE HIGHWAY. MY ENGINE STARTED BOGGING DOWN AND LUCKILY I WAS NEAR AN OFF RAMP AND WAS ABLE TO SAFELY GET OFF THE HIGHWAY. I WASN'T ABLE TO SHIFT INTO ANY GEAR, MY ENGINE WOULDN'T EVEN STAY ON IT KEPT STALLING. ITS BEEN ALMOST THREE WEEKS NOW AND NO ONE IS GIVING MY ANY ANSWERS AS TO WHAT IS GOING ON, ALL I AM BEING TOLD IS THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO MY DRIVING. MY CAR HAS A LITTLE OVER 43,000 MILES, NOTHING MORE AND MY CLUTCH IS NOW IN PIECES. SOME OF MY CLUTCH IS PERMANENTLY ON MY FLYWHEEL NOW. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING A MANUAL TRANSMISSION FOR OVER NINE YEARS AND HAD DRIVEN SEVERAL VEHICLES AND HAVE NEVER BURNT OUT MY CLUTCH. MY WARRANTY THROUGH CAR MAX WILL NOT COVER IT, NO ONE WANTS TO EVEN LOOK AT MY ISSUE BECAUSE ALL THEY HEAR IS CLUTCH FAILURE AND ITS AUTOMATICALLY MY FAULT.

THE PARKING BRAKE IS INOPERABLE. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE MECHANISM IN THE REAR CALIPERS HAS BECOME SEIZED AND PULLING THE E-BRAKE LEVER WILL NOT ENGAGE THE EMERGENCY BRAKES, WHICH ALLOWS THE VEHICLE TO ROLL FREELY. PRIOR MODEL YEAR (2013) ALREADY HAVE AN ACTIVE RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE, HOWEVER NEWER MODEL YEARS (2014-2016) DO NOT.

BUSHING RECALL APRIL 2019. CAR UNABLE TO DRIVE, STUCK IN GEAR AUGUST 19, 2019. NO PARTS AVAILABLE ACCORDING TO ANY DODGE DEALERS WITHIN A 50 MILE RADIUS. UNABLE TO DRIVE , THE CAR IS A LEMON NOTHING MORE THAN A YARD ORNAMENT. NEED TRANSPORTATION FOR WORK, NO PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION IN RURAL SOUTH, UNACCEPTABLE FROM MANUFACTURE. IF MANUFACTURE CAN'T FIX, THEY SHOULD PROVIDE FREE RENTALS UNTIL CAR CAN BE FIXED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE DART. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE IN REVERSE, THE VEHICLE SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL INDEPENDENTLY. ALSO, THE CHECK ENGINE AND GEAR SHIFTER WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. FURTHERMORE, THE BACK UP CAMERA WOULD NOT FUNCTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FEDERICO CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (1875 E EDWARDSVILLE RD, WOOD RIVER, IL 62095, 618-254-1000) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SHIFTER CABLE DETACHED FROM THE TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V293000 (POWER TRAIN). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,000. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE DART. -THE VEHICLE DID NOT ENGAGE IN DRIVE. -HAD TO TURN VEHICLE OFF/ON SEVERAL TIMES. -POWER TRAIN. -THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR NHTSA RECALL NUMBER: 19V293000 ( POWER TRAIN ), AND ALREADY WAS EXPERIENCING THE FAILURE. SEVERAL DEALERS CONTACTED INCLUDING SAN ANTONIO CHRYSLER/JEEP/RAM, 11910 I-35 FRONTAGE RD, SAN ANTONIO, TX 78233, ALL CONFIRMED PARTS NOT AVAILABLE TO PERFORM THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000. VIN TOOL CONFIRMED PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THIS MONTH MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, WHEN I WENT TO GET IT DIAGNOSED/REPAIRED, I WAS TOLD IT WAS A KNOCK SENSOR. I GOT IT REPLACED AND LESS THAN A DAY LATER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS BACK ON. I WENT BACK TO THE REPAIR SHOP, THEY REPLACED THE SENSOR AGAIN, BECAUSE IT WAS THE SAME CODE, BUT THIS TIME WITH AN OEM PART FROM DODGE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AGAIN A DAY LATER AND NOW I AM BEING TOLD THE PCM NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND THE 2013 MODEL OF MY CAR HAD THIS PROBLEM AND IT WAS A RECALL. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 77,000 MILES ON IT, I AM STILL PAYING FOR IT. THESE TYPES OF MAJOR REPAIRS ON A CAR IS RIDICULOUS. I USED TO WORK IN THE REPAIR SECTOR, SO I KNOW IT'S NOT UNHEARD OF, BUT THIS CAR SHOULD DEFINITELY NOT BE NEEDING A NEW COMPUTER ALREADY. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT THE CAR IS DOING. WHEN THE LIGHT IS CLEARED, IT COMES BACK ON WITHIN A DAY (I DRIVE ABOUT 14 MILES A DAY ROUND TRIP BACK AND FORTH TO WORK).

IT STARTED BACK IN APRIL. MY CAR WOULDN'T GO INTO REVERSE. IT STARTED FLASHING THE R ON THE DASH THEN NEXT TO THE GEAR SHIFT. I TOOK IT INTO THE SHOP. IT THEN STARTED NOT GOING INTO REVERSE OR DRIVE. NOT ONLY WOULD THE LIGHTS FLASH AT ME BUT IT WOULD SAY PLACE VEHICLE INTO NEUTRAL THEN DRIVE OR REVERSE. IT ENDED UP TOWED ONCE BECAUSE T WOULDN'T GO ANYWHERE. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT POPPED UP. IT SAID ALL MY GEARS WERE NOT FOUND. IT HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP 7 TIMES FOR THIS SAME REASON. IT WON'T REVERSE AND/OR WON'T GO INTO DRIVE. THE GEAR SHIFT ALSO POPPED INTO PARK GOING DOWN THE INTERSTATE. MOST RECENTLY I HAD A COLLISION WHERE IT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE IN REVERSE AND ENDED UP GOING FORWARD AND HITTING A PARKED VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE IS STILL NOT FIXED AND I OWE MONEY ON IT. MY BRAKES HAVEN'T BEEN WORKING CORRECTLY AND I KNOW THEY ARE STILL GOOD BECAUSE MY MECHANIC DAD AND BOYFRIEND HAVE CHECKED THEM. THE CRUISE WILL GO OFF RANDOMLY AND THE TOUCH SCREEN GOES WHITE, BLACK AND BACK ON. THERE IS AN OPEN RECALL WITH NO REMEDY. I DO NOT FEEL LIKE THIS IS THE CAUSE. ALSO, I AM HAVING PROBLEMS GETTING THE IGNITION TO RELEASE MY KEY. DODGE HIRED AN INVESTIGATOR. IT TOOK MY CAR BEING HIT BEFORE THEY DECIDED TO TAKE ACTION. I FEEL LIKE I'M DRIVING A DEATH TRAP THAT I CAN'T GET OUT OF AND USUALLY HAVE ONE TO 3 KIDS IN MY CAR. I'D RATHER NOT HAVE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT BECAUSE THIS CAR IS A PIECE OF (XXX).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE DART. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. AFTERWARDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD SOMETIMES RESTART AND OTHER TIMES IT WOULD TAKE MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO RESTART. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 70,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

FIRST OF ALL, WHEN STEERING TO TURN THERE IS A CRACKING NOISE. IT GIVES THE FEELING THAT THE STEERING SYSTEM IS GONNA BREAK. SECOND MAIN PROBLEM IS THAT CAR SHUTS COMPLETELY DOWN WITH NO REASON WHEN BREAKING. THIS JUST HAPPEN TO ME THIS MORNING. I WAS STOPING BECAUSE OF A RED LIGHT AND THE CAR SHUT DOWN THERE. I COULD NOT TURN IT ON AFTER A FEW MINUTES MIN WHILE I WAS COMPLETE STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THIS IS PRETTY DANGEROUS IF IT HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING IN THE FREEWAY...

I WAS COMING UP TO A RED LIGHT AT AN INTERSECTION. WHEN COMING TO A STOP, THE BRAKES LOCKED UP AND WAS UNABLE TO STOP AND REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE.

VEHICLE MADE WEIRD NOISES AS SOON AS IT WAS PUT IN DRIVE SHORTLY AFTER BEING TURNED ON. WAS DRIVING ON A 45 MPH ROAD WHEN I COULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE AFTER THE FIRST GEAR WHILE TURNING INTO THE FREEWAY. WAS FORCED TO PULL OVER AND RESTART THE VEHICLE WHICH WAS ABLE TO PUT INTO FIRST GEAR AND AFTER SECOND GEAR BEGAN TO REV UP AN NO ACCELERATION HAPPENED. WAS UNABLE TO MAKE IT TO WORK AND TRIED TO TEST IT 'OUT AGAIN, BUT UNFORTUNATELY ITS STILL FAILING. MY VEHICLE IS UNDRIVABLE AND NOW NEED TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR REPAIRS OF A RECALL THAT IS STILL "PENDING". MINE & MY CHILDREN'S SAFETY WAS ON THE LINE. WE WERE LUCKY IT WAS NOT RUSH HOUR. I HAVE ATTACHED THE LETTER I RECEIVED FROM THE FAC US LLC STATING THIS IS A DEFECTED VEHICLE. WHICH IS A LETTER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE NTMVSA.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR IN TOWN AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE DASH CLUSTER QUIT WORKING. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 30 MPH ON A SMALL TOWN CITY STREET. WHEN I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR THEY SAID THAT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. IF IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM THEY TOOK A WEEK TO GET THE PARTS BECAUSE THEY CAN'T MAKE THEM TO REPAIR THE CARS AS THE DASH CLUSTERS ARE FAILING.

MY GRANDMA WAS DRIVING HER CAR IN TOWN AND THE DASH CLUSTER QUIT WORKING. I TRIED CHECKING FUSES AND DID NOT FIND ANYTHING SIMPLE TO FIX THE DASH CLUSTER TO QUIT WORKING. SHE TOOK THE CAR TO THE LOCAL DODGE DEALER WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED. WHEN THEY ASKED WHAT HAPPENED EXPLAINED THAT THE DASH CLUSTER JUST QUIT WORKING. THEY SAID THAT IS VERY COMMON ISSUE. I THINK IT IS A SAFETY ISSUES BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SEE ANYTHING NO MPH, GAUGES OF ANY SORT FUEL, TEMPERATURE. WHEN OPERATING THE CAR YOU HAVE TO GUESS WHEN THE DASH CLUSTER IS NOT WORKING.

MY GRAND MOTHER WAS DRIVING HER 2014 DODGE DART AND HER ELECTRONIC DASH CLUSTER QUIT WORKING WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING. THE DASH CLUSTER IN HER CAR IS THE SPEEDOMETER AND ALL NECESSARY GAUGES AND DISPLAYS. WHEN WE TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER THE DEALER SAID THAT IT WAS A KNOWN ISSUE BUT THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I THINK THIS IS SIMILAR TO THE RECENT RECALL ON THE NEW DODGE'S THAT HAD A RECALL ON THE DASH CLUSTERS ALSO. THE DEALER ALSO SAID THAT THE DASH CLUSTERS WERE ON BACKORDER BECAUSE THEY ARE REPLACING THAT MANY OF THEM. MY GRANDMA WAS DRIVING IN TOWN LESS THAN 35 MPH ZONE. SHE SAID THAT THE DISPLAY WAS THERE THEN GONE. SHE WAS NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED. SHE WAS NOT SURE WHAT WAS WORKING OR NOT WORKING ON HER CAR SHE MADE IT HOME AND PARKED THE CAR.

IN SHORT I PAID OUT OF POCKET AND SUBMITTED WORK ORDER AND PAID RECEIPT THREE TIMES. REPAIR WAS DONE IN JUNE AND THEY SAID THEY'D GET BACK TO ME IN AUGUST. ALL I'M GETTING IS RUN AROUND, I'VE BEEN MORE THAN PATIENT.. THANK YOU

WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN PARK AND TURN THE KEY LEFT TO TURN OFF CAR, IT WON'T LET ME. SO I HAVE TO RESTART MY CAR MOVE THE GEARS FROM PARK TO ANOTHER AND THEN BACK TO PARK, WAIT FOR THE CLICK NOISE AND THEN TURN MY CAR OFF.

BRAKE PEDAL IS HARD, MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO STOP. WHEN PRESSED THE PEDAL MAKES A HISSING SOUND. THE DART WAS PRODUCED IN FEBRUARY OF 2014 ONE MONTH AFTER THE END OF THE OTHER BRAKE RECALL.

CAR WILL NOT GO INTO PARK WHEN TRYING TO PARK. CAR SAYS NOT I. PARK AND WILL NOT TURN OFF

MY DODGE DART HAS AN ISSUE WHERE THE BATTERY LIGHT WILL TURN ON AND THEN THE CAR WILL TURN OFF WHILE IT IS IN USE. THIS ISSUE BEGAN AROUND 1 YEAR AGO AND HAS BEEN SPORADICALLY HAPPENING SINCE THEN. MY MECHANIC EXCHANGED MY BATTERY BUT THE ISSUE PERSISTED AND HE HAS BEEN UNABLE TO FIND A CAUSE. UPON DOING SOME RESEARCH THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH DODGE DARTS. WHEN THE OIL GETS LOW THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF WHEN IN USE WITHOUT AN INDICATOR LIGHT SHOWING THE OIL IS LOW AND DESPITE THE OIL LIFE PERCENTAGE NOT BEING CRITICALLY LOW (IT WAS 17% THE MOST RECENT TIME IT HAPPENED TO ME). THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT HAPPENS ABRUPTLY AND THE STEERING LOCKS UP WHILE THE CAR IS SHUTTING OFF.

MY ETC LIGHT WILL TURN ON IF I TAKE OFF TOO QUICKLY TO GET UP TO SPEED WITH TRAFFIC. IT HAS ALSO STARTED TO TURN OFF WHENEVER I HIT THE BRAKES TOO ABRUPTLY. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND DODGE WILL NOT EVEN LOOK AT IT UNLESS I PAY THEM 125 DOLLARS. I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT IS CLEARLY NOT MY FAULT. IT IS A MANUFACTURER ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR SUED!

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. I TOOK IT TO HAVE IT FIXED LAST YEAR AT A SULLIVAN'S GARAGE AND HE CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. HE WENT A HEAD AND CHANGED THE OIL. AND MIND YOU I JUST HAD IT CHANGED AWEEK BEFORE. AND HE SAID I WAS ALREADY HALF A QUART LOW. MY CAR STILL WILL START JERKING/JUMPING AND STOP. ILL HAVE TO TURN THE KEY OFF AND TAKE OUT AND PUT THE KEY BACK IN AND START THE CAR. AND THE ENGINE AND AIRBAG LIGHTS WILL GO OFF.AND I JUST HAD A OIL CHANGE.IT HAPPENS WHEN I'M GETTING ON THE FREEWAY TO GO HOME FROM WORK AND ILL HAVE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF HIGHWAY!!! DRIVING TO THE STORE. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHEN CAR ENGINE IS RUNNING LIGHTS COME ON AND CAR IS MOVING STARTS DOING THE JERKS. PLEASE DO A RECALL ON THE ENGINE!!! I LOVE MY CAR!!! BUT THIS IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE HIT IN THE CAR. AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO DONE NOW!!!!!! MY HUSBAND THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY, UNTIL HE DROVE IT. YOU CAN CALL HIM [XXX] ASK FOR [XXX]. MY HUSBAND HAS SULLIVAN'S GARAGE PHONE NUMBER ALSO. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

2014 DODGE DART. CONSUMER WRITES SEEKING REIMBURSEMENT FOR REPAIRS MADE RELATED TO A SAFETY RECALL 19V-293. *LD *JS *JS

THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED 3 TIMES AND HAS BEEN TAKEN TO A MECHANIC EVERY SINGLE TIME TO GET FIXED. EVERY SINGLE TIME I AM DRIVING, I SLOW DOWN TO TURN AROUND A CORNER, MY ENGINE COMPLETELY STOPS, VEHICLE SPEED SLOWS DOWN, EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS FINE. WILL NOT RESTART, NEEDS JUMPED EVERY SINGLE TIME. EACH TIME I'VE BEEN LEFT IN THE ROAD HOPING NOT TO GET HIT. I'VE READ MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS EVERYWHERE. IF AN ACCIDENT OR A BIGGER PROBLEM COMES OUT OF THIS, I WILL BE SUING. I'VE ALREADY SPENT HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS ON THIS PROBLEM. SOMEBODY NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS BEFORE MY BANK ACCOUNT OR MY CAR IS WRECKED.

AT 44K THERE WAS A DEFINITE SWAY WHEN TAKING A CORNER. I ALSO NOTICED A DROP TO THE FRONT END. WHEN I TOOK IT TO MY GARAGE THE FIRST THING MY MECHANIC NOTICED WAS MY FRONT TIRES NEED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO CUPPING WHICH HE TOLD ME WAS FROM UNEVEN WEAR DUE TO MY SUSPENSION. HE ALSO SHOWED ME WHERE WATER WAS LEAKING INTO THE STRUTS ON THE FRONT END. DEFINITELY DUE TO PART FAILURE AND NOT NORMAL WEAR AND USE.

I HAVE BEEN HAVING DIFFICULTY SHIFTING GEARS AFTER THE CAR HAS WARMED UP. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS NOW.IT HAS GOTTEN SO BAD THIS PAST WEEK THAT IT ALMOST LEFT ME STRANDED 40 MILES FROM HOME WHEN I HAD STOPPED FOR FUEL. I HAD PUT IT IN NEUTRAL WITH THE EMERGENCY BREAK ON, AND IT JUST WOULD NOT GO INTO ANY GEAR WHEN I TRIED TO LEAVE.AFTER COOLING FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES, I FINALLY MANAGED TO CATCH A GEAR AND GO. SOMETIMES, IT WILL SLIP OUT OF FIRST OR SECOND GEAR INTO NEUTRAL, WHILE IN MOTION. THIS MORNING MY HUSBAND ATTEMPTED TO MOVE IT INTO THE GARAGE DUE TO A STORM APPROACHING AND HE COULD NOT GET IT INTO ANY GEAR AND THE CLUTCH STUCK TO THE FLOOR. WE HAVE NOT DRIVEN IT SINCE YESTERDAY, SO IT WASN'T EVEN WARM. MY HUSBAND AND I PUSHED IT INTO THE GARAGE.

CARE STARTS OVERHEATING WHILE THE COOLANT IS FULL AND ALL OTHER COMPONENTS ARE WORKING. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO BE REPAIRED MULTIPLE TIMES FOR THE OVERHEATING AND THERE IS NO SIGN OF DAMAGE TO BE REPAIRED. ALSO OCCASIONALLY THE OIL SEEMS TO DISAPPEAR FROM THE ENGINE WITH NO LEAK OR VISIBLE DAMAGE.. CAR WILL OCCASIONALLY STALL OUT AS WELL WHILE I AM DRIVING. THE CAR IS IN THE SHOP AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING 3 TIMES AND THE CAR WILL TURN OFF WHICH IS DANGEROUS. THE DRIVE IS EXTREMELY ROUGH AND IS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE IT BANGS REALLY LOUD WITH ANY SMALL BUMP. CAR HAS A BUNCH OF FLAWS AND I HAVE HAD IT LESS THAN 2 YEARS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE DART. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V293000 (POWER TRAIN). THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO BILL LUKE CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (2425 W CAMELBACK RD, PHOENIX, AZ 85015, 602-249-1234) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE DART. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V293000 (POWER TRAIN) AND STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. DAVE DENNIS DODGE/JEEP/CHRYSLER (4232 COLONEL GLENN HWY, DAYTON, OH 45431) CONFIRMED THAT PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE TO PERFORM THE RECALL REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NO AVAILABLE. *TR*JB

THE BACK UP CAMERA AND INTERIOR SCREEN HAVE BOTH GONE OUT. OUT OF NOWHERE. THE SCREEN FLUCTUATES BETWEEN WORKING AND TURNING ITSELF OFF MID USE (NOT ONLY FOR THE CAMERA, BUT DURING DRIVING AS WELL.) THE SCREEN HAS BEEN MALFUNCTIONING FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW AND THE CAMERA HAS GONE DOWN ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO.

2014 DODGE DART RECALL UNABLE TO SHIFT GEARS. CHRYSLER ADVISED THAT THE REMEDY DATE IS 8/8/2019. TOO LONG TO BE WITHOUT A CAR. THEY STATE THEY WILL REIMBURSE RENTAL BUT NOT PAY UPFRONT FOR ONE. THIS IS TOO LONG TO BE WITHOUT MY ONLY VEHICLE.

ON APRIL 17, 2019, WHEN ARRIVING AT DESTINATION, I ATTEMPTED TO SHIFT GEARS INTO PARK. HOWEVER, GEARS SHIFTED INTO REVERSE PERMANENTLY. I CALLED MY SIBLINGS TO ASSIST WITH GETTING THE CAR OUT OF REVERSE, THE HANDLE WOULD MOVE BUT THE GEARS WOULD NOT CHANGE. THE ONLY WAY WE COULD GET THE CAR TO STOP WAS WITH THE EMERGENCY BREAK. WE TURNED OFF THE IGNITION, BUT ALL LIGHTS STAYED ON AND WE COULD NOT REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE KEY OUT WAS TO UNHOOK THE BATTERY. I CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER THE FOLLOWING DAY ON APRIL 18TH, AND THEY ADVISED OF A RECALL FOR SHIFT CABLE BUSHING. I ASKED HOW LONG THE PROCESS WOULD TAKE, THEY STATED THEY WOULD MAIL A LETTER TO ADVISE HOW TO SET UP APPOINTMENT, THEY WOULD HAVE TO ORDER PARTS. I CALLED BACK ON APRIL 25TH TO INQUIRE ONCE AGAIN ABOUT HOW LONG THE PROCESS USUALLY TAKES, AND THEY DID NOT ADVISE OF A TIME FRAME. I ADVISED THE REPRESENTATIVE THAT MY CAR CANNOT BE DRIVEN AT ALL, AND ASKED IF I WERE TO GET A RENTAL CAR OR GET MY CAR FIXED MYSELF WOULD I BE REIMBURSED. THE REPRESENTATIVE ADVISED THAT THERE IS NO GUARANTEE. I'VE CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER ONCE AGAIN ON MAY 8, 2019. REPRESENTATIVE ADVISED THAT THE PART HAS STILL NOT BEEN ORDERED AND THERE IS NO ESTIMATED TIME.

I PULLED UP INTO MY DRIVEWAY, I STARTED TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK, AND IT WOULD NOT GO IN TO PARK. IT FELT LIKE THE ENTIRE SHIFTER WAS BROKEN OR LOOSE, AS IT WOULD FREELY MOVE UP AND DOWN WITHOUT ACTIVELY PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK, NEUTRAL, REVERSE OR DRIVE. I COULD NOT PULL MY KEY OUT, I HAD NO OTHER OPTION, BUT TO PULL THE EMERGENCY BRAKE, AND UNPLUG MY BATTERY. I FINALLY FIGURED OUT HOW TO PULL THE KEY OUT OF THE FOB, SO THAT I DIDN'T HAVE TO LEAVE MY KEYS IN THE CAR. THIS WAS IN MID TO LATE APRIL. I WENT ONLINE TO SEE IF I COULD TROUBLESHOOT AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SHIFTER CABLE BUSHING, WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT WAS MISSING FROM MY CAR. I OBSERVED THE SHIFTER CABLE WAS NO LONGER ATTACHED, AND THAT IS WHY THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE SHIFTED INTO ANY GEARS. IT IS NOW JULY 18TH, AND I STILL HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO USE MY VEHICLE. NO ONE CAN FIX IT, DUE TO THE PART NOT BEING AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER IS V34, AND THE NHTSA RECALL NUMBER IS 19V-293. THE RECALL STARTED APRIL 11TH 2019 AND I HAVE YET TO SEE ANYTHING FROM DODGE. I HAVE BEEN PUT ON A LIST TO BE MADE AWARE WHEN A PART IS AVAILABLE, BUT NOW I AM GETTING UPSET BECAUSE I CAN NO LONGER SUSTAIN NOT HAVING A WORKING CAR, ESPECIALLY ONE THAT I PAY FOR EVERY MONTH.

THE CAR STARTED RANDOMLY SHUTTING OFF, AT A STOP OR WOULDN'T START ALL TOGETHER. AFTER ABOUT A WEEK OF RANDOM STALLING AND SHUT OFFS, I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC. HE SAID THAT IT HAS A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT WHERE THE CAR THINKS IT HAS LOW OIL, IT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE TO BE LOW. HAVE BEEN ADDING OIL AND CHECKING CONSISTENTLY FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND RECENTLY IT REFUSED TO TURN ON. GOT A JUMP AND THE CAR STARTED. HAD THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHECKED AT AUTO PARTS STORE , CAR STARTED UP NO PROBLEM, AND BOTH WERE FINE, BATTERY FULLY CHARGED. NOT MORE THAN 10 MINUTES AFTER TESTING THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN ON. JUMPED IT AND IT STARTED, DROVE HOME. AGAIN, TRIED TO START IT A FEW HOURS LATER AND NOTHING, NEEDED ANOTHER JUMP. USED A SCANNER TO CHECK FOR COMPUTER ISSUES AND NOTHING CAME UP. AFTER DRIVING THE CAR ABOUT 10 MILES, SHUT IT OFF AND AGAIN NEEDED A JUMP. THE CAR SEEMS TO JUST SHUT OFF OR NOT START FOR NO REAL REASON. ONE MECHANIC COULD NOT FIGURE OUT THE ISSUE, THE OTHER HAD IT A COUPLE OF WEEKS BEFORE BLAMING THE OIL ISSUE AND NOW THIS. NO RECALLS ON THIS CAR, ALREADY CHECKED THE VIN NUMBER. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO ABOUT THIS CAR AT THIS POINT WITHOUT SPENDING MORE ON IT THAN IT IS WORTH. 2014 DODGE DART, 98,000 MILES

"THE BASIC OF THE ISSUE ARE SHIFTING ROUGHLY, OVER-REVVING BEFORE SHIFTING, FAILING TO SHIFT, MAKING A GRINDING NOISE ON TAKE OFF, RUNNING ROUGH, EXHIBITING A BURNING SMELL, SMOKING AND OVERHEATING." DASH LIGHT COMES ON RANDOMLY WHEN IN TRAFFIC ON MY COMMUTE HOME FROM WORK "TRANSMISSION GETTING HOT PRESS BRAKE" AND THE CAR WILL START TO SMOKE.

MY CAR WAS PARKED. I TURNED MY CAR ON AND PUSHED THE BRAKE, MY SHIFTER WOULD CHANGE TO DIFFERENT GEARS ON THE LIGHTED DISPLAY BUT WOULD NOT ACTUALLY GO INTO REVERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE. MY CAR WAS STUCK IN PARK. UPON EXAMINATION FROM A MECHANIC MY SHIFTER CABLE WAS LOOSE AND THIS HAD TO BE REPAIRED. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS WITH THIS SAME ISSUE UPON ONLINE RESEARCH. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THIS WAS NOT PART OF MY WARRANTY. THIS WOULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE IF THIS WAS TO COME LOOSE UPON MY DAILY COMMUTE ON A BUSY INTERSTATE. I AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY IF MY VEHICLE WAS STUCK IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. I AM THANKFUL THIS TIME I WAS IN PARK,

MY CAR POP IN TO NEUTRAL IT WANT GO INTO PARK OR DRIVE, IT'S STAYING IN NEUTRAL THE KEY WANT RELEASE BECAUSE OF THE CAR BEING STUCK IN NEUTRAL.

PURCHASED 2014 DODGE DART FROM SUBARU OF CHERRY HILL, NJ DEALERSHIP 5/2019 @ 44,000MI. USED. EXCELLENT CARFAX. SINCE OWNERSHIP, VEHICLE HAS STOPPED TWICE; ONCE WHILE SLOWED DOWN TO MAKE A LEFT TURN, AND AGAIN WHILE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. BATTERY LIGHT DID NOT COME ON EITHER TIME. 3RD TIME VEHICLE DIDN'T START AFTER BEING PARKED FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 HRS. NEEDED TO BE JUMPED. AFTER FIRST INCIDENT OF STOPPING, VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO MECHANIC; COULDN'T FIND PROBLEM. BATTERY CHECKED OUT AS OK. OIL CHANGE PERFORMED AT 47,351MI. ALSO, SINCE BEING PURCHASED, A SLIGHTLY SWEET SMELL COMES OUT OF FAN. DOES NOT GO AWAY. CONCERNED THAT THE VEHICLE WILL STOP WHILE ON A HIGHWAY, CAUSING A MULTI-VEHICLE CRASH. THIS SEEMS VERY UNSAFE. UPON INVESTIGATION, NO RECALL WAS NOTED. DEALERSHIP CALLED TO DISCUSS FURTHER WITHOUT RESPONSE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. MANY OTHER DRIVERS SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUES WHEN SEARCHED ONLINE. PLEASE HELP! MOST RECENT EPISODE WAS 2/13/19.

TRANSMISSION SLIPS INTO NEUTRAL WHILE DRIVING CAUSING THE CAR TO LOSE MOBILITY CAUSING A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN.
