SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AFTER APPROX A 50 MILE STRETCH OF CONTINUOUS HIGHWAY DRIVING (~60-70 MPH) I HAD TO MERGE ONTO ANOTHER HIGHWAY BUT FIRST CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP TO WAIT FOR A GREEN TO MAKE MY LEFT TURN. AS I SLOWED DOWN AFTER APPLYING NORMAL BRAKE PRESSURE MY WHEELS LOCKED AND I SLID TOWARD THE STOP LINE. I NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM THE SIDE WHEEL WELL. A FEW MONTHS LATER I WAS DRIVING APPROX A 2 HOUR DRIVE AND NOTICED A BURNING SMELL AGAIN. SOMETIMES I COME TO A STOP AFTER SIMILAR DRIVING SIMILAR DISTANCES AND GET THE SAME SMELL AGAIN. HAVE RECEIVED NOTICE 15V-800 REGARDING BRAKE BOOSTER CONTAMINATION BUT NO FOLLOW UP AS OF YET.

POWER TRAIN
BACKED OUT OF A PARKING SPOT THEN CAME TO A STOP AND SWITCHED GEAR TO DRIVE. THE CAR STAYED IN REVERSE YET THE SHIFTER WAS IN THE DRIVE POSITION. MOVED IT TO THE PARK POSITION AND NO CHANGE CAR WAS STILL READING AS REVERSE. LATER FIND OUT THAT THE CLIP HOLDING THE GEAR SHIFT CABLE TO THE LEVER HAD BROKE. AFTER APPLYING THE EBRAKE AND MANUALLY GOING UNDER THE HOOD TO SWITCH THE LEVER TO PARK OR NEUTRAL WAS THE CAR ABLE TO BE STOPPED AND TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP. THE ONLY OFFER TO FIX THIS PROBLEM WETHER IT IS THE PIECE CONNECTED TO THE LEVER OR THE ACTUALLY SHIFT IS TO GET A COMPLETELY NEW CABLE. THIS CABLE IS NOT PART OF THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY ALTHOUGH THE PRNDL POSITION SWITCH IS. A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF OTHER DODGE DART OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM OR PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (ONLY RECALLED IN 1.4L TURBOS). BOTH ARE SERIOUS PROBLEMS THAT AFFECT AND CAN HINDER THE DRIVABILITY OF THE CAR.
