I PULLED UP INTO MY DRIVEWAY, I STARTED TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK, AND IT WOULD NOT GO IN TO PARK. IT FELT LIKE THE ENTIRE SHIFTER WAS BROKEN OR LOOSE, AS IT WOULD FREELY MOVE UP AND DOWN WITHOUT ACTIVELY PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK, NEUTRAL, REVERSE OR DRIVE. I COULD NOT PULL MY KEY OUT, I HAD NO OTHER OPTION, BUT TO PULL THE EMERGENCY BRAKE, AND UNPLUG MY BATTERY. I FINALLY FIGURED OUT HOW TO PULL THE KEY OUT OF THE FOB, SO THAT I DIDN'T HAVE TO LEAVE MY KEYS IN THE CAR. THIS WAS IN MID TO LATE APRIL. I WENT ONLINE TO SEE IF I COULD TROUBLESHOOT AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SHIFTER CABLE BUSHING, WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT WAS MISSING FROM MY CAR. I OBSERVED THE SHIFTER CABLE WAS NO LONGER ATTACHED, AND THAT IS WHY THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE SHIFTED INTO ANY GEARS. IT IS NOW JULY 18TH, AND I STILL HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO USE MY VEHICLE. NO ONE CAN FIX IT, DUE TO THE PART NOT BEING AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER IS V34, AND THE NHTSA RECALL NUMBER IS 19V-293. THE RECALL STARTED APRIL 11TH 2019 AND I HAVE YET TO SEE ANYTHING FROM DODGE. I HAVE BEEN PUT ON A LIST TO BE MADE AWARE WHEN A PART IS AVAILABLE, BUT NOW I AM GETTING UPSET BECAUSE I CAN NO LONGER SUSTAIN NOT HAVING A WORKING CAR, ESPECIALLY ONE THAT I PAY FOR EVERY MONTH.

"TAKATA RECALL" ABOUT TWO YRS AGO MY LOST CONTROL AS I TRIED TO PUT IT IN REVERSE, IT APPEARED THAT THE SHIFTING CABLE CAME APART IN THE PARKING LOT OF A FAMILY DOLLAR IN MY HOME TOWN. AS I WAS BACKING OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE I WAS UNABLE TO STOP MY VEHICLE WHILE IT WAS IN REVERSE , I IMMEDIATELY HAD TO USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKES TO STOP IT. HAD IT REPLACE BY A PERSONAL MECHANIC. WAS OUT OF TRANSPORTATION FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS, BECAUSE HAS TO ORDER THE PART FROM THE DEALERSHIP.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
CAR WILL NOT START. IT WILL TURN ON BUT NOT START THE CAR. BATTERY AND STARTER WERE REPLACED. MECHANIC NOTED THAT THE FUSE BOX WAS HOT, EVEN THOUGHT THE ENGINE WAS COOL. HE FEELS THAT IT COULD BE THE COMPUTER OR FUSE BOX. THE CAR WILL SOMETIMES START. BUT, I HAVE BEEN STRANDED AND CANNOT RELY ON IT TO START. COMPUTER DIAGNOSIS DOES NOT COME UP WITH ANYTHING. REACHING OUT TO THE DODGE DART OWNERS COMMUNITY, THIS SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN PROBLEM. SO FAR, NO ONE KNOW WHAT TO DO. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS TO CHARGE A GREAT DEAL OF MONEY ON COMPUTER DIAGNOSTICS WHEN IT WON'T HELP.

I HAVE BEEN HAVING DIFFICULTY SHIFTING GEARS AFTER THE CAR HAS WARMED UP. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS NOW.IT HAS GOTTEN SO BAD THIS PAST WEEK THAT IT ALMOST LEFT ME STRANDED 40 MILES FROM HOME WHEN I HAD STOPPED FOR FUEL. I HAD PUT IT IN NEUTRAL WITH THE EMERGENCY BREAK ON, AND IT JUST WOULD NOT GO INTO ANY GEAR WHEN I TRIED TO LEAVE.AFTER COOLING FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES, I FINALLY MANAGED TO CATCH A GEAR AND GO. SOMETIMES, IT WILL SLIP OUT OF FIRST OR SECOND GEAR INTO NEUTRAL, WHILE IN MOTION. THIS MORNING MY HUSBAND ATTEMPTED TO MOVE IT INTO THE GARAGE DUE TO A STORM APPROACHING AND HE COULD NOT GET IT INTO ANY GEAR AND THE CLUTCH STUCK TO THE FLOOR. WE HAVE NOT DRIVEN IT SINCE YESTERDAY, SO IT WASN'T EVEN WARM. MY HUSBAND AND I PUSHED IT INTO THE GARAGE.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
"TAKARA RECALL" I STARTED NOTICED SQUEAKING WHEN PRESSING THE BREAKS. THIS AUTOMATICALLY MAKING ME ASSUME THAT MY BRAKES/BRAKE PADS WERE GOING BAD. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL SHOP AND AFTER CHECKING IT OUT THEY SUGGESTED THE BRAKES WERE FINE AND THAT I NEEDED TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO DO SO, I HAD COMPLETE BRAKE FAILURE. I WAS ATTEMPTING TO COME TO A STOP WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS PRESSED ALL THE WAY DOWN AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SLOWING NOR WERE THE BRAKES CATCHING. THUS RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT. THE DART IS A TOTAL LOSS. MY LIFE AS WELL AS MY CHILDREN'S LIVES WERE PUT IN DANGER. ALL AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND ANOTHER VEHICLE WAS HIT AS WELL. VIN NOT VALID *JB
