There are 6 owner-reported brakes complaints for the 2024 Dodge Hornetin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
Driving on the highway at 75 mph, slowing down to 55mph exiting the highway by braking manually, gently. The car started juddering slightly, we assumed it was the road and carried on, then the car following us started to flash for us to stop, we did, got out and all 4 wheels / brakes were on fire, we put them out and carried on driving assuming the brakes would be ok, but we had not put any other kind of brake on except the brake pedal. Then this past weekend a mechanic was trying to move the car and moved it only 5 ft before the brakes all came on and jammed the car. I have no files to upload as the car is currently with a Dodge dealer and they are inspecting it.
my dodge Hornet is involved in this recall. The area that the bolt is to be place to satisfy the recall looks like a bolt should have been placed there and it was left out!!! According to the service bulletin there is NO drilling required to add this solution. I feel that this situation should looked into further.
The contact owns a 2024 Dodge Hornet. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V752000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The dealer was made aware of the issue and confirmed that parts would not be available until January 2025. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.
I contacted my dealer to have the brake recall corrected as the Mopar site indicated the repair parts were available. I scheduled an appointment and the vehicle was taken into the shop this morning. However, the dealer advised that the repair couldn”t be completed as the parts wouldn’t be available from Mopar until January 2025. I’m concerned about the safety of this vehicle if the brake mechanism should fail while driving, especially at highway speeds. I’ve already had 2 electrical issues with the batteries that have caused the vehicle to become nonresponsive while parked. I’m unable to trade out of the vehicle as the dealer is saying there’s a substantial amount of negative equity due to the poor sales of the model for Dodge.
There is a recall on the breaks and parts will not be available until January.
Nothing on my personal vehicle has failed yet, but the fact that Stellantis has this recall issue with the Hornets and there is no immediate fix nor will they provide a loaner vehicle is absurd and unacceptable. The safety of many is put at risk by the brakes having the potential to fail. This issue could seriously injure or even kill people.
