EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE RACETRACK TAIL LIGHT ON MY 2015 DODGE DART HAS HAD A SEAL ISSUE CAUSING WATER TO GET BEHIND THE LENSE AND CAUSING THE LED LIGHT TO BURN OUT. NOT ALL OF THEM. I'VE SEEN MULTIPLE DODGE VEHICLES WITH THE SIMILAR ISSUE. HOPEFULLY SOMEONE CAN GET THEM MOTIVATED TO GET IT FIXED.

THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT CABLE ON MY CAR STOPPED WORKING WHEN I WAS LEAVING MY GARAGE TO GO IN A ROAD TRIP. THIS PROBLEM ALREADY HAVE A SAFETY RECALL ISSUED, HOWEVER A REMEDY FOR THIS CONDITION IS NOT CURRENTLY AVAILABLE. THE CAR HAS BEEN TOWED TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP, AND THEY ADVISED THAT A PART HAS BEEN ORDERED TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND I HAVE CONTACTED FCA THAT ADVISED ME THAT THEY WOULD SEND APPROVAL TO THE DEALERSHIP TO PROCEED WITH THE REPAIR. HOWEVER, AFTER MULTIPLE CALLS FROM ME AND FROM THE DEALERSHIP, FCA STILL HAVEN'T GIVEN THE APPROVAL TO THE DEALERSHIP TO PROCEED WITH THE REPAIR.

POWER TRAIN
I WAS NOTIFIED ON 04/18/2019 OF THE MANUFACTURER SAFETY RECALL ISSUED NHTSA #19V-293 #V34 2013-2016 DODGE DART PF SHIFT CABLE BUSHING. IT IS NOW 08/18/2019 4 MONTHS LATER AND THERE IS STILL NO REMEDY AVAILABLE. WHILE I HAVE NOT HAD A MISHAP AND THE PART HAS NOT FAILED YET I FEAR IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME. MY SON IS NOW AT COLLEGE ON HIS OWN WITH THE 2015 DODGE DART AND I HAVE TO REMIND HIM TO TRY AND BE GENTLE WITH THE SHIFTER AND MAKE SURE THAT HE SETS THE PARKING BRAKE IN CASE THE BUSHING FAILS AND THE VEHICLE DOESN'T GO INTO PARK. I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING FROM FIAT/CHRYSLER SINCE THE INITIAL RECALL NOTIFICATION. THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE AND THEY OWE US ANSWERS OF WHEN OUR VEHICLES WILL BE FIXED OR THEY SHOULD START A VEHICLE BUYBACK PROGRAM IF THEY CAN'T FIX THE PROBLEM.

ENGINE, WHEELS
MY CAR CUT OFF TWICE THIS MORNING, AND ALMOST DIDN'T CRANK BACK UP. THEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, SO I TOOK IT BY O'REILLY TO GET THE ENGINE TESTED. IT SHOWED THAT MY THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL WAS BAD. PRIOR TO THIS IT SEEMED LIKE SOMETIMES WHEN I TRIED TO CHANGE GEARS THAT IT WAS STICKING OR SOMETHING. IT WAS ALMOST AS IF IT WAS SWITCHING GEARS PROPERLY. TO TOP IT OFF, I'VE HAD TO REPLACE ALL OF MY TIRES ONCE, AND A COUPLE OF THEM TWICE. NOW TODAY IT APPEARS I'LL HAVE TO REPLACE THE BACK TWO A THIRD TIME. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!!! I'VE BEEN WONDERING IF THEY JUST DIDN'T LET ME KNOW THAT THE TIRES THEY WERE PUTTING ON WERE BAD TIRES, POSSIBLY RECALL TIRES. I'M WONDERING BECAUSE I'VE REPLACED TIRES WAY TOO MANY TIMES, AND ONE OF THE LAST TIMES I WENT THEY TOLD ME THEY NO LONGER HAD THE TYPE OF TIRES THAT WERE ON MY CAR, BECAUSE THEY DECIDED TO STOP BUYING THAT BRAND. WHEN I ASKED WHY, HE FUMBLED AROUND THAT AND TOLD ME THE PLACE THEY (DEALERSHIP) GOT THEM FROM (PEP BOYS) NO LONGER USED THOSE COMPLAINTS.
