IT STARTED BACK IN APRIL. MY CAR WOULDN'T GO INTO REVERSE. IT STARTED FLASHING THE R ON THE DASH THEN NEXT TO THE GEAR SHIFT. I TOOK IT INTO THE SHOP. IT THEN STARTED NOT GOING INTO REVERSE OR DRIVE. NOT ONLY WOULD THE LIGHTS FLASH AT ME BUT IT WOULD SAY PLACE VEHICLE INTO NEUTRAL THEN DRIVE OR REVERSE. IT ENDED UP TOWED ONCE BECAUSE T WOULDN'T GO ANYWHERE. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT POPPED UP. IT SAID ALL MY GEARS WERE NOT FOUND. IT HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP 7 TIMES FOR THIS SAME REASON. IT WON'T REVERSE AND/OR WON'T GO INTO DRIVE. THE GEAR SHIFT ALSO POPPED INTO PARK GOING DOWN THE INTERSTATE. MOST RECENTLY I HAD A COLLISION WHERE IT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE IN REVERSE AND ENDED UP GOING FORWARD AND HITTING A PARKED VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE IS STILL NOT FIXED AND I OWE MONEY ON IT. MY BRAKES HAVEN'T BEEN WORKING CORRECTLY AND I KNOW THEY ARE STILL GOOD BECAUSE MY MECHANIC DAD AND BOYFRIEND HAVE CHECKED THEM. THE CRUISE WILL GO OFF RANDOMLY AND THE TOUCH SCREEN GOES WHITE, BLACK AND BACK ON. THERE IS AN OPEN RECALL WITH NO REMEDY. I DO NOT FEEL LIKE THIS IS THE CAUSE. ALSO, I AM HAVING PROBLEMS GETTING THE IGNITION TO RELEASE MY KEY. DODGE HIRED AN INVESTIGATOR. IT TOOK MY CAR BEING HIT BEFORE THEY DECIDED TO TAKE ACTION. I FEEL LIKE I'M DRIVING A DEATH TRAP THAT I CAN'T GET OUT OF AND USUALLY HAVE ONE TO 3 KIDS IN MY CAR. I'D RATHER NOT HAVE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT BECAUSE THIS CAR IS A PIECE OF (XXX).

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN, STEERING
I BOUGHT A DODGE DART 2013 LIMITED EDITION (OR WAS TALKED INTO IT BY YOUR SALESPEOPLE) I WANTED THIS TO BE MY LAST CAR AND I ACTUALLY REALLY LIKED IT. THEN I STARTED HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR SHIFTING INTO NEUTRAL RANDOMLY. I TOOK IT TO A DODGE DEALER BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. THIS HAPPENED THREE TIMES AND THEY SAID THEY DID EVERYTHING THEY COULD. A LEMON LAW FIRM CONTACTED ME AND SAID THEY COULD REPLACE THE CAR IF I HAD 3 OCCURRENCES WITH RECEIPTS WHICH I SUBMITTED TO THEM. THEY SAID CHRYSLER WAS GIVING ME $3900. I WAS CONFUSED BECAUSE I THOUGHT THEY WERE GIVING ME ENOUGH TO REPLACE THE CAR. THEY EXPLAINED CHRYSLER DIDN'T WANT TO DO THAT. I ACTUALLY FORGOT ABOUT IT (THAT WAS 2016) AND THOUGHT THE ISSUE HAD BEEN FIXED SO I WAS HAPPY. NOW THIS PAST JULY 4TH 2019 MY TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS HAVE RETURNED. MY CAR HAS 48,000 ONLY AND NOT EVEN THE DODGE EXTENDED WARRANTY (WHICH I WANTED TO NOW PURCHASE) DO NOT COVER 2013 MODELS. THAT SPEAKS VOLUMES TO ME. THEY KNOW THEY SOLD ME A LEMON AND ONE THAT IS NOT SAFE. I CAN'T AFFORD A NEW CAR AND HAVE NOW LEARNED THAT LEMONS ARE BOUGHT AND SOLD BACK TO THE PUBLIC. I WILL NEVER BUY OR SPEAK WELL ABOUT CHRYSLER AGAIN. YOU ARE A FRAUDULENT COMPANY. I WANTED A HONDA ORIGINALLY BUT WAS TALKED OUT OF IT BY NEIGHBORS WHO WORK FOR CHRYSLER. I WILL BE CALLING DEENA CENTOFANTI FROM CHANNEL 2 FOX TO TELL HER I WAS SOLD AN UNSAFE CAR AND I AM STUCK WITH IT. THEY ALREADY KNOW THAT CHRYSLER KNEW THE SYSTEM DESIGN WAS FAULTY IN 2012 BUT RELEASED THE 2013 ANYWAY. SHAMEFUL.

CAR WILL CUT OFF GOING DOWN ROAD AND WILL NOT CRANK BACK FOR AT LEAST 3 MIN. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT BY OTHER TRAFFIC ON VARIOUS OCCASIONS. THIS STARTED BACK IN JULY 2016.DEALERSHIP SAYS IT'S A SAFETY TO KEEP CAR FROM BLOWING UP WHEN IT HAS LOW OIL. THE CAR BURNS EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL. PROBLEM IS I HAVE OIL CHANGED ON A REGULAR SCHEDULE AND BETWEEN OIL CHANGES TO PREVENT CAR FROM CUTTING OFF IN MIDDLE OF THE ROAD I HAVE TO PUT ANY WHERE FROM 15 TO 25 QUARTS OF OIL IN. IT'S GETTING WORSE. IT'S NOT LEAKING ANYWHERE. ALSO SOMETIMES OUT OF NO WHERE WITH MY FOOT NOT ON ACCELERATOR IT SEEMS TO ACCELERATE ON IT'S ON. THE CAR ALSO HESITATES ON TAKEOFF OFTEN.

IN THE MORNINGS WHEN I FIRST START THE CAR MY CLUTCH PEDAL STICKS DOWN AND I HQVE TO PULL IT UP USING MY FOOT/HAND. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE FOR MANUAL TRANSMISSION DARTS. HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER ABIUT THE ISSUE AND THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. FOR THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE PAID OUT OF POCKET SAY THAT IT IS A SLAVE/ MASTER CYLINDER ISSUE AND IF NOTHING IS DONE DURING EARLY STAGES LIKE STARTING YOUR CAR IN THE MORNING. IT DOES START TO HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND DOES CAUSE FURTHER DAMAGE. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A HUGE SAFTEY CONCERN THAT THEY SHOULD FIX.

MY PROBLEM PERTAINS TO RECALL 19V-293 MY SHIFT CABLE BUSHING BROKE TODAY WHILE I WAS SHIFTING FROM DRIVE TO PARK IN A PARKING GARAGE AND ACCORDING TO THE DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP DEALERSHIP IN TALLAHASSEE, FL CHRYSLER HAS NOT PROVIDED ANY PARTS OR REMEDY FOR THE ISSUE WHICH WAS RECALLED IN APRIL. THEY TOLD ME OVER THE PHONE THAT THEY WOULD CHARGE ME AT LEAST $450 TO REPAIR THE ISSUE AND THAT THEY COULD NOT GIVE ANY ESTIMATE AS TO HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF REPLACEMENT PARTS AVAILABLE. I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PERSONALLY SEEK REIMBURSEMENT FROM CHRYSLER AFTER THE REPAIR WAS COMPLETED. I FEEL THAT THIS IS COMPLETELY UNREASONABLE GIVEN THAT A RECALL WAS ISSUED NEARLY THREE MONTHS AGO AND AM REPORTING WHAT I BELIEVE IS A FAILURE TO ADEQUATELY PROVIDE REMEDY FOR THE ISSUE IN A TIMELY MANNER.

I HAVE BEEN FINANCING THIS CAR SINCE 2013,AND SO FAR IT'S BEEN ON THE RECALL LIST TWICE, HOWEVER THIS TIME IT'S BEEN LABELED DAMAGED GOODS BY THE INSURANCE COMPANIES AND GEICO RECENTLY TERMINATED MY POLICY AS A RESULT OF THIS, AND NO OTHER INSURANCE COMPANY IS WILLING TO TAKE A RISK AND INSURE THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE, SO I'M STUCK PAYING FOR A CAR I CAN'T EVEN DRIVE,THE FCA SENT ME ANOTHER LETTER TELLING ME THAT THERE'S ANOTHER DEFECTIVE ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE AND AS SOON AS THE PART COMES INTO STOCK THEY'LL LET ME KNOW SO I CAN TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVE THE ISSUE ADDRESSED,BUT BECAUSE MY INSURANCE COMPANY HAS TERMINATED MY POLICY I CAN'T EVEN DRIVER THE CAR THERE,AND I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE IN THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE ANYMORE BECAUSE IT HAS TOO MANY DEFECTS AND KEEP WINDING UP ON THE RECALL LIST, IT POSSIBLY FALLS UNDER THE LEMON LAWS AND I DON'T THINK IT'S FAIR TO HAVE TO CONTINUE MAKING PAYMENTS ON A DEFECTIVE VEHICLE THAT I CAN'T EVEN DRIVE,SO I'M LOOKING FOR A LOGICAL RESOLUTION OUT OF CONCERN FOR ME AND MY FAMILY SAFETY,LIKE BEING ABLE TO TRADE IT IN FOR A SAFER CAR
