SERVICE BRAKES
THE CAR HAS EXCESSIVE ROTOR WEAR AND INTERMITTENT BRAKING ISSUES. THE DEALER SERVICE CENTER DOESN'T SEEM OVER CONCERNED OR SUGGEST IT MIGHT BE COVERED UNDER OUR PREMIUM EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE PROBLEM WAS NOTICED EARLY IN JULY AND THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP FOR OTHER REPAIRS. MY WIFE STATES THAT THE CAR SOMETIMES HAS TROUBLE STOPPING, AND HAS TO PUSH THE BRAKES HARDER TO BRING IT TO A STOP WHEN THE BRAKING PROBLEM OCCURS.

STRUCTURE:BODY, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE PANEL THAT PROTECTS THE UNDERSIDE OF THE FRONT PORTION OF THE CAR RUBS AND DETACHES WITH CONTACT WITH STANDARD ROAD OBJECTS (SLOPES, PARKING STUMPS, SPEED BUMPS, ETC.). AS A RESULT THE PROTECTIVE COVER IS DESTROYED AND HANGS BENEATH THE CAR AND CAUSES A SAFETY HAZARD TO THE DRIVER AND TO OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD. POSSIBLE SAFETY HAZARDS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: FLYING DEBRIS ON ROAD WAY, EXCESS EXPOSURE OF CAR PARTS TO ROADWAY AND WEATHER ELEMENTS, FRONT BUMPER FALLING OFF, HOSES ON UNDERSIDE OF CAR BREAKING FROM IMPACT WITH ROAD AND MORE. SPECIFICALLY, THIS HAPPENED TO MY CAR WHEN I WAS ENTERING A PARKING LOT THAT HAS A SLOPE AND THE FRONT UNDERSIDE BECAME LOOSE. I BELIEVE THE UNDERSIDE BECAME LOOSE BECAUSE OF THE FIBER GLASS FABRIC THAT KEEPS IT IN PLACE WHICH RIPPED (SHOWN IN PICTURES). IT CONTINUED TO OCCUR EACH TIME I ENTER ANY PARKING LOT THAT HAS A SLOPE TO ENTER AND CONTINUALLY GOT WORSE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, STEERING
MY RADIO WITH THE TOUCHSCREEN HAS BEEN REPLACED 4 TIMES I BELIEVE DUE TO AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE-CONTINUED TO FLICKER ON AND OFF. THE VISOR FELL OFF, NOW THERE ARE NO INTERIOR LIGHTS. BRAKE RECALL REPAIR DONE, BUT NOW ENGINE LIGHT ON, STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP WHILE IN REVERSE, ALL SYSTEM LIGHTS CAME ON LOOKING LIKE FAILURE. CAR WAS ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN, BUT WHEN PUTTING FOOT ON GAS IT WOULD HAVE NO EFFECT. NOW THE CAR DOES NOT START OR EVEN TURN OVER INCLUDING WHEN JUMP STARTED. I HAVE DOCUMENTATION OF THE RADIO REPAIR AND BRAKE RECALL AND HAVE VIDEOS ON MY PHONE OF THE ACCELERATION WITH FOOT ON THE BRAKE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
THE CAR WON'T START. BATTERY IS COMPLETLY DEAD. WON'T EVEN CHARGE. (THAT'S NOT THE BIG DEAL) THE BIG DEAL IS WHEN I TRY TO REVERSE IT'S LIKE IT DOESN'T WANT TO GET IN GEAR. THEN WHOLE CAR SHAKES, AND THEN IT FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION STOPS AND IS ABOUT TO DROP. GEAR SHIFT LIGHTS ALL TURN RED. HAVE TO START CAR AND TURN BACK ON TO GET IT TO GO TO NORMAL. ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON TOO. THEN EVENTUALLY TURNS OFF.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
BOUGHT A 2014 DODGE DART 2 YEARS. HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH IT TILL RECENTLY WHEN CAR STARTED TO SHUT OFF WHILE RUNNING IN MOTION. I LOST POWER STEERING CONTROL AND POWER TO THE WHOLE CAR. INCIDENT HAPPENED ON FOUR DIFFERENT OCCASION. THREE TIMES ON RESIDENTIAL ROAD AND ONCE ON FREEWAY. COMPLETELY A SAFETY ISSUE AND HAS PUT MY LIFE IN DANGER MULTIPLE TIMES. ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT, AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON. CONTACTED CHRYSLER DODGE AND THEIR SOLUTION WAS TO HAVE ME TOW CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND PAY TO HAVE CAR SERVICED EVEN THOUGH CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. CAR HAS PUT MY LIFE AND THE LIFE OF OTHER PEOPLE IN DANGER MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE COMPANY SEEMS TO NOT CARE EVEN AFTER CONTACTING THEM FORMALLY WITH COMPLAINT.
