SERVICE BRAKES
PARKING BRAKE ON MY 2013 DODGE DART 1.4L TURBO LIMITED DOES NOT HOLD MY VEHICLE IN PLACE. I HAVE ADJUSTED THE CABLE SEVERAL TIMES AND HAVE REPLACED BOTH REAR CALIPERS. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE PARKING BRAKE MECHANISM GETS STUCK IN THE LOADED/PARKED POSITION AND WILL NOT RETURN TO IT RESTING POSITION. I HAVE HAD TO APPLY LUBRICANT TO IT AND MANIPULATE BACK AND FORTH TO FREE IT, AFTER DOING THIS I HAD TO ADJUST THE CABLE UNDER THE CONSOLE. MY CAR IS A MANUAL 6 SPEED TRANSMISSION AND IT WOULD NICE TO HAVE A PARKING BRAKE THAT WOULD NOT HAVE TO ADJUST CONSTANTLY.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
AFTER RECEIVING MY CAR FROM THE DEALERSHIP THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SO I CONTACTED THEM ABOUT IT AND HE HOOKED IT UP TP MACHINE TOLD ME TO WATCH FOR THE LIGHT AGAIN AND LET HIM KNOW. I DONT DRIVE MY CAR MUCH SO IT WAS ABOUT A WEEK LATER WHEN I NOTICED THE ENGINE LIGHT AGAIN SO I TOOK IT TO OREILLEY'S AND THE CODE P2096 WHICH IS FUEL TO RATIO WHICH HAS BEEN A PROBLEM MORE THEN I CAN COUNT. MY CAR ALWAYS SMELLS LIKE GAS FUMES THAT'S WHY I TRY NOT TO DRIVE IT UNLESS I CAN KEEPS WINDOWS DOWN BECAUSE THE SMELL IS VERY STRONG. I WAS DRIVING TODAY AND IT KEPT STALLING AND WHEN II WOULD START TO GO FROM A DEAD STOP ONCE IT SHIFTED INTO 2ND IT WOULD JERK REAL HARD LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS MESSED UP AGAIN. THE LIGHT OF COURSE COMES BACK ON AFTER THEY CLEAR UT OUT AND IT MAY HAVE SAME CODE OR IT MAY BE DIFFERENT EACH TIME. I AM TIRED OF RISKING MY LIFE AND OTHERS BECAUSE NO ONE WANTS TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM I'VE HAD FOR 6 YEARS NOW AND HAVE SO MANY ODI COMPLAINTS WITH NHTSA AND COMPLAINTS WITH FCA I COULD HAVE MY OWN CAR COMPLAINT WEBSITE. I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THEM TAKE MY CAR IN FOR TESTING OF QUIALITY OF CARS AND PROVE TO EVERYONE THIS WAS A LEMON CAR NO IF, ANDS, OR BUTTS ABOUT IT. THERE IS 1 IN HOWEVER MANY CARS THAT ARE LEMONS AND THIS IS ONE OF THEM.550 DAYS IN THE SHOP BEING FIXED THAT MANY TIMES THAT FOR MORE THEN AN ENTIRE YEAR MY CAR WAS BEING WORKED ON. SHOULD THAT BE ENOUGH OR IS SOMEONES LIFE GONNA BE WHAT OPENS EYES. I'VE GOT ,MORE DOCUMENTS TO SHOW THE MANY MANY PROBLEMS I HAVE HAD AND HAVE PASSED THEM ALONG TO MY ATTORNEY SO IF SOMETHING HAPPENS IN RESULT OF THIS UNSAFE CAR THERE WILL BE ACTION TAKEN.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER
MY DODGE DART WIPERS REMAIN TURNED ON, WITH NO ABILITY TO CONTROL THE SPEEDS OR USE WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID. AFTER INSPECTING, THE CONTROL RIBBON CABLE RUBS AGAINST PLASTIC WHENEVER BLINKERS ARE USED. THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE AND ALMOST CAUSED A CRASH WHEN DRIVING IN BAD WEATHER. DODGE NEEDS A RECALL BECAUSE OF THIS DESIGN. I CAN HAVE THE PART REPLACED, HOWEVER IT COULD JUST REOCCUR AGAIN. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 44,000 MILES

THE CLUTCH SUNK IN - GOT STUCK - AND IT DID NOT RETRACT. I HAD TO PHYSICALLY RETRACT THE CLUTCH WITH MY FOOT IN ORDER TO SUCCESSFULLY SWITCH GEARS WHILST I WAS DRIVING ON A FREEWAY WHERE THE COMMON SPEED IS 70+ MPHS. THIS CONTINUED AS I WAS TRYING TO REDUCE THE SPEED IN ORDER TO EXIT THE FREEWAY FOR SAFETY. THIS HAS NOT BEEN THE FIRST TIME AND IT HAPPENED TO ME - BUT THIS IS THE MOST RECENT ACCOUNT OF EVENTS. USUALLY WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION.

I WAS DRIVING OVER A MOUNTAIN PASS WHEN I GOT A MESSAGE "GEAR NOT AVAILABLE" AFTER PUTTING ON THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN. THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT GO THROUGH THE GEARS. I TURNED AROUND AND WENT HOME WITH VEHICLE BARELY GOING THROUGH GEARS WHEN SLOWED AND THEN SPEEDING UP. I HAD NO REVERSE WHEN STOPPED TO HAVE CHECKED AND LEAVING THE PARKING LOT. I HAD PROBLEMS GETTING BACK UP TO DRIVING SPEED AFTER SLOWING DOWN.

VISIBILITY/WIPER, LANE DEPARTURE: BLIND SPOT DETECTION
MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND WASHERS WON'T TURN ON ANYMORE. AND I'VE SEARCHED UP THIS PROBLEM TO TRY TO FIX IT, BUT IT SEEMS THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WHO HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL OF CAR. IT CAN CAUSE MAJOR ACCIDENTS DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE DURING HEAVY RAINS BECAUSE THE I COULDN'T TURN ON THE WIPERS TO WIPE THE RAIN WATERS AWAY. DRIVING BACK FROM WARREN, IN TO FORT WAYNE, IN WAS A SCARY TRIP THROUGH THE I-69 SOUTH AND US 33 S ROUTE, THE HEAVY RAIN BLINDED AND COVERED EVERYTHING ON THE WINDSHIELD, AND THE ROADS AND OTHER MV WAS HARDLY ABLE TO SEE, ALL I CAN SEE WAS A GLIMPSE OF BLURRY YELLOW LIGHTS FROM THE SEMI TRUCKS. PLEASE HAVE THIS RECALL, IT'S VERY IMPORTANT.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS PUSH IT WAS HARD AS A ROCK AND NO BRAKES, HAD TO USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP ,ALMOST GETTING HIT IN A INTERSECTION. FOUND THAT THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER PUMP HAD SEIZED AND CHECK VALVE TO BOOSTER HAD FAILED INTRODUCING ENGINE OIL INTO BRAKE BOOSTER. DEALERSHIPS HAVE CLAIMED IT WAS NO PROBLEM WHEN RECALL WAS ISSUED AND ANOTHER SAID RECALL HAS EXPIRED. I THOUGHT THEY HAVE UP TO 8 TO 10 YEARS TO FIX SAFETY RECALLS.

WHEELS
WHEEL LUGS SWELL AND BECOME IMPOSSIBLE TO REMOVE FROM THE WHEEL HUB, MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO CHANGE A FLAT TIRE, A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS PROBLEM ON BUSY STREETS. VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE TOWED, WITH EXPENSIVE REPAIRS, SIMPLY TO CHANGE A TIRE. AN INTERNET SEARCH CONFIRMED THIS IS A PROBLEM FOR MANY DODGE DART OWNERS.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
BACK IN THE BEGINNING OF 2019 I STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION. IT WAS CAUSING A JERKING MOTION WHEN I ACCELERATED AND I BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP NOT ONCE BUT TWICE. I INITIALLY HAD A CODE COME UP STATING THAT I NEEDED TO SERVICE THE TRANSMISSION. IT WOULD COME ON AND CLEAR ITSELF BEFORE I COULD GET IT LOOKED AT. THAT WAS THE FIRST TIME I BROUGHT IT IN AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. IT CONTINUED TO HAPPEN OVER THE NEXT SIX MONTHS OR MORE AND WHEN I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THEM AND DISCUSSED THE RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION THEY DISMISSED ME AS THAT WASN'T THE ISSUE BUT, AT THAT POINT I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED INTO THE SHOP BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE SINCE I WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE IT. THEY STILL HAVE NOT FIXED THE TRANSMISSION RECALL AND I HAVE HAD TO HAVE MY CAR SITTING FOR THE LAST YEAR AND 2 MONTHS DUE TO MY INABILITY TO DRIVE IT BECAUSE OF WHATEVER ISSUES THAT WERE GOING ON THAT THEY NEVER FIXED. I AM UNSURE OF THE DAMAGE THAT THIS HAS CAUSED AND I AM HOPING THAT YOU GUYS WILL BE ABLE TO HELP ME FIGURE OUT WHAT I CAN DO TO HAVE THEM NOW FIX MY CAR. SINCE THERE IS POSSIBLY ADDITIONAL DAMAGE DONE TO MY VEHICLE DUE TO THEM DISMISSING ME I FEEL THAT IT IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX THAT DAMAGE AS WELL. THE DATE I GAVE WAS AN APPROXIMATE DATE SINCE IT HAS BEEN SO LONG I AM UNSURE OF THE EXACT DATE BUT CAN GET A COPY OF THE DOCUMENTS FROM THE DEALERSHIP IF NEEDED.
