SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY (55 MPH), DASHBOARD LIGHTS FLASHED ON AND VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER SUDDENLY WITHOUT NOTICE. ALL POWER STEERING, BRAKES AND ELECTRICAL POWER WAS LOST. THIS HAPPENED WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. VEHICLE LOSING ALL POWER SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING COULD HAVE CAUSED A FATAL ACCIDENT AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED WHY NO WARNING WAS GIVEN AS TO ANY ISSUES THE VEHICLE MAY HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I HAVE A 2010 DODGE AVENGER WHICH I PURCHASE IN APRIL OF 2015. AND IN 2015 I HAD TO PUT IT IN THE SHOP TO REPLACE THE THROTTLE CONTROL BODY BECAUSE I WAS LOSING ACCELERATION WHILE DRIVING. HERE WE ARE 1.5 YEARS LATER AND I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC THAT WAS WORKING ON MY CAR, AFTER 2 UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPTS TO FIX IT, THEY CONTACT A DODGE DEALERSHIP, WHICH STATED THIS WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE. AFTER DRIVING MY CAR FOR MORE THAN 10 MINUTES, THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE INDICATOR LIGHT BEGINS TO FLASH. I AM UNABLE TO ACCELERATE PAST 20 MPH. OR IF I AM STOPPED, THE CAR JERKS FORWARD WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE ESPECIALLY WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
TAKATA RECALL- I HAVE A VEHICLE THAT IS CURRENTLY ON RECALL, I CAN NOT SAFELY DRIVE THE VEHICLE SO IT HAS BEEN MOSTLY SITTING SINCE OCTOBER WHEN I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT MANY TIMES WITH THE PERSON WHO IS SUPPOSED TO HELP AND RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT I WILL BE AWARDED $40.00 A DAY FOR A RENTAL CAR UNTIL THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN FIXED AND I CAN HAVE MY CAR FIXED. HOWEVER I CAN NOT GET AN APPROPRIATE VEHICLE FOR $40.00 A DAY. PLUS I CAN NOT AFFORD TO PAY THE MONEY UPFRONT TO GET A RENTAL VEHICLE. IT WOULD BE MUCH CHEAPER TO JUST HAVE YOU GUYS PAY IT OFF. MY CAR WOULD OF ALREADY BEEN PAID OFF IF SOMEONE WOULD HAVE DONE SO IN THE BEGINING. I AM WRITE TO LET YOU KNOW THAT THE CAR IS NOW HAVING ISSUES; IT KEEPS MAKING A LOUD CLICKING NOISE WHEN IT FIRST STARTS AS WELL AS WHEN IT STOPS AND PERIODICALLY WHEN IT ISN'T EVEN BEING DRIVEN. IT ALSO LEAKS WATER INTO THE TRUNK WHEN IT IS WET OUTSIDE. I AM ASKING ONCE AGAIN FOR THIS CAR TO BE PAID OFF, I CAN NOT SELL OR TRADE THIS VEHICLE AND AM STILL MAKING PAYMENTS ON IT. I AM ASKING TO GET THIS PAID OFF, IF NOT I HAVE CONTACTED A LAWYER AND WILL PROCEED WITH A LAW SUIT, I REALLY DO NOT WISH TO PERSUE THIS HOWEVER IT HAS BEEN NINE MONTHS AND I NEED THIS RESOLVED.

DRIVE SIDE ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINT (AHR) TRIGGERED ON OWN WITHOUT ACCIDENT. I CONTACTED DODGE WHEN IT HAPPENED AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOT ANY ISSUES. RECEIVED PHONE CALL FROM DIFFERENT NAPLETON RECENTLY AND ASKED SERVICE ADVISOR ABOUT IT AND HE SAID HE HAS SEEN A FEW. CONTACTED DODGE AGAIN AT (800) 423-6343 (SPECIAL INVESTIGATIONS) AND THEY SAID VEHICLE IS BEYOND 3 YEARS/36K WARRANTY. I ORIGINALLY CONTACTED THEM IN JULY 2015 AND THEY SAID THEY NEVER SEEN IT AND NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. AFTER TALKING TO OTHER SERVICE ADVISOR AND FINDING OUT THAT THERE IS OTHER VEHICLES OUT THERE DODGE SHOULD LOOK FURTHER INTO THIS ISSUE. SOMEONE COULD GET SERIOUSLY HURT OR DIE DO TO THIS PROBLEM. RESEARCHING THE WEB THERE HAS BEEN CASES OF AHR DEPLOYING WHILE GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, THANKFULLY MY WIFE WAS IN PARK WHEN IT DEPLOYED. I APPRECIATE YOUR ASSISTANCE WITH THIS.
