POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
IT BECAME MORE CONSISTENT IN 2017, MY CAR WOULD STALL DRIVING IT ANYWHERE FROM 25 MPH -75 MPH, SOME DAYS THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD LOCK AND THE CAR WOULD TURN OFF AND I'D HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL IT WAS READY TO BE BACK ON, JUST RECENTLY MULTIPLE TIMES I HAVE HAD MY CAR TURN COMPLETELY OFF GOING 75MPH, THE DASHBOARD TURNS OFF THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS AND THE CAR SHUTS OFF, SOME TIMES IT TURNS OFF FOR NOT EVEN A MINUTE BEFORE IT TURNS BACK ON. OTHER TIMES I'VE PUT MY CAR ON CRUISE CONTROL AND IT'S TURNED OFF MINUTES AFTER BEING SET. WAS TOLD TO CHANGE THE OIL MORE OFTEN WHICH I DID AT MAXIMUM OF 3000 MILES, ON A 2014?! THIS TIME (ITS BEEN SEVERAL SEVERAL TIMES ALREADY) MY CAR TURNED OFF AND WOULDN'T TURN BACK ON, TRIED JUMP STARTING IT FOR ALMOST 3 HOURS AND IT DID NOTHING TO THE CAR, THE CAR DIDN'T BUDGE. THE DASHBOARD WOULD FLICKER ON AND OFF AND ALL THE SWITCHES WOULD GO CRAZY INCLUDING MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS THAT WEREN'T EVENT ON IN THE FIRST PLACE. USED A CAR BATTERY CHARGER TO SEE IF IT HELPED AT ALL, 12 HOURS LATER STILL NOTHING. I HAVE A TWO YEAR OLD AND THIS CAR IS WAY TO DANGEROUS FOR ME TO FEEL SAFE IN!!

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
AS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AFTER ABOUT A MILE FROM HOME MY CAR WOULD NO LONGER MOVE BUT GLIDE ALONG. THE ENGINE WAS SHUT OFF AND I HAD NO CONTROL OVER SPEED. YOU CAN STEP ON THE GAS AND IT WILL NOT MOVE. RPM'S DROP AND THE MOTOR TURNS OFF IN DRIVE. AFTER THIS HAPPENS THE CAR HESITATES TO START BUT WILL. THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND ALL STATISTICS FOR THE CAR WERE AS THEY SHOULD BE. THE BATTERY IS SHOWING CORRECT VOLTAGE. THE CAUSE IS UNKNOWN.

IF I BRAKE WITHIN 5 MINUTES OF STARTING MY VEHICLE, THE NEXT TIME I BRAKE ALL OF THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS WILL FLASH ON, THE BATTERY LIGHT WILL STAY ON, AND THE CAR WILL STALL. AFTER WAITING 5 TO 10 MINUTES THE CAR WILL START AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS WITHIN A WEEK OF WHEN MY CAR NEEDS AN OIL CHANGE. THIS HAPPENED 10/24/2017, 10/25/2017, AND 5/17/2018.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, WHEELS
MY 2013 DODGE DART HAS BEEN GOING THROUGH ISSUES FOR A YEAR. MY TIRES HAVE BEEN POPPING LEFT AND RIGHT BRAND NEW AND USED TIRES JUST POPPING WHILE I'M DRIVING WITH MY KIDS IN THE CAR. THE CAR NOW HAS A BCM PROBLEM AS WELL AS A SMALL GAS LEAK. I HAVE WENT THROUGH MULTIPLE DEALERSHIP THAT LOOKED OVER THE CAR AND CAN'T DETERMINE WHERE THE GAS LEAK IS COMING FROM IN WHICH MY CHECK ENGINE IS STILL ONE WHICH LEAVE ME TO NOT BE ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE INSPECTED OR REGISTERED AGAIN. THIS CAR HAS CAUSED ME AND MY FAMILY SO MUCH MONEY AND ISSUES. IT HARDLY WANTS TO DRIVE, MY KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION FOR SOME REASON AND I CAN'T TURN THE CAR OFF. THE DODGE AND RECALL PLACE TOLD ME THEY CAN NOT HELP ME BECAUSE MY VIN IS NOT RECALLED BUT I'VE BEEN HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AS EVERY OTHER 2013 DODGE DART.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I BOUGHT A USED 2014 DODGE DART ACT IN SEPTEMBER 2017, IN LATE DECEMBER EARLY JANUARY I BROUGHT CAR IN TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE IT KEPT STALLING OUT. THEY LOOKED AT IT AND SAID IT WAS BECAUSE THE OIL WAS LOW. FAST FORWARD TO MAY. I'M ON THE WAY TO THE STORE AND MY CAR STALLS OUT WHILE I'M DRIVING WITH MY 4YR DAUGHTER IN THE CAR. I GOT IT STARTED BACK UP AFTER A FEW MINS BUT IT STALLED OUT AFTER A MIN. THEN AGAIN LATER IN THE NIGHT 3 MORE TIMES IN LESS THEN A QUARTER MILE. THIS APPARENTLY IS AN ONGOING ISSUE AMONGST OTHER DADGE DART OWNERS. THIS PROBLEM COULD KILL PEOPLE AND DODGE IS DOING NOTHING TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION.

PARKING BRAKE (EMERGENCY BRAKE) CALIPER FAILURE REAR RIGHT. 33,062 MILES. WITHIN LAST WEEK OR SO HANDLE IS MUCH EASIER TO PULL UP. NOW, WHEN ENGAGED YOU FEEL LEFT SIDE OF CAR GOES UP AND RIGHT DOES NOT (LOPSIDED). YESTERDAY, I WAS DRIVING ON A LEVEL STREET AND LOUD CLUNKING NOISE CAME FROM RIGHT REAR WHEEL AREA. CALLED CHRYSLER DODGE HOTLINE TODAY AND TOLD IT WAS NOT IN THE BRAKE CALIPER RECALL. I MADE PRIOR COMPLAINTS TO DEALER THAT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WOULD POP OUT AND ROLL AND IT WAS DISMISSED THAT I WAS NOT PULLING UP BRAKE PROPERLY, BUT I WAS. CHYSLER SAW THERE WERE ONLY A FEW COMPLAINTS (46) REGARDING THE BRAKE CALIPERS FOR MY VIN SO IT IS NOT IN A RECALL.
