ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
CAR STALLED WHILE OPERATING UNDER FULL POWER ON THE INTERSTATE. IT TOOK APPROX. 3 MINUTES AND IT FINALLY RESTARTED. TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP. THEY STATE CAR IS NOT PART OF ANY RECALL BASED ON VIN #. THEY STATE STALLING WAS RESULT OF EXTREMELY LOW OIL. HOWEVER, THE CARE HAS NO LEAK AND DOES NOT BURN OIL. IT IS SYNTHETIC OIL AND IT SIMPLY BREAK DOWNS AND DISSIPATES. I DON'T BELIEVE THEM. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS CAR HAS DONE THIS AND THE FIRST TIME THEY RE-FLASHED THE COMPUTER WITH A SOFTWARE PATCH TO FIX PROBLEM.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STAND STILL ON TO A FREEWAY OR ANY ROAD WITH A SPEED LIMIT ABOVE 25 MPH IS VERY DANGEROUS IN THIS CAR. WHEN YOU STEP ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL THE CARS DOES NOT RESPOND VERY FAST AND TAKES A FEW SECONDS BEFORE IT ACTUALLY GETS UP AND MOVES TO A GOOD SPEED. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS EVERY TIME YOU ACCELERATE, THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. I HAVE HAD MANY CLOSE CALLS WHILE MERGING INTO TRAFFIC.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN THE FAST LANE, MY GAS PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND MY CAR LOST ALL ACCELERATION AND STEERING BECAME HARD TO TURN. WHEN THIS HAPPENED MOST OF MY CAR ENGINE LIGHTS WERE BLINKING AND WHEN I PLACED THE CAR IN PARK THE VEHICLE DIDN'T NOTICE IT WAS IN PARK. THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO GET OFF TO THE EMERGENCY SHOULDER. I TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS A RECALL NOTICE IN AUGUST 26TH WHICH WAS JUST SENT OUT TO DODGE DART OWNERS. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT WOULD COST ME 1,500-2,000 TO FIX THE PROBLEM, MONEY WHICH I DO NOT HAVE SO I TRADED IN MY CAR WITH NEGATIVE EQUITY, AND THE DEALERSHIP, I BELIEVE WAS VERY NON-PROFESSIONAL AND TOOK ADVANTAGE OF THE SITUATION. THEY ALSO SHOWED ME AN INCORRECT NADA PRICE CHART FOR THE TRADE-IN VALUE TO MY CAR.
