ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
THE BATTERY LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLICKERING ON AND OFF, AND THE VEHICLE STARTED IDLING AND DECREASING IN SPEED FOR NO REASON. WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE IT DID NOT WANT TO DO SO, AND AGAIN THE LIGHTS AND POWER STARTED FLICKERING TURNING ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY. UPON PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF, AT WHICH TRYING TO RESTART, THE ENGINE DID NOT TURN OVER ONLY CLICKING NOISES. INSTEAD STILL WHAT SEEMED LIKE A SURGING OF POWER WITH ALL RANDOM LIGHTS FLICKERING AND STEREO TURNING ON AND OFF. THIS ISSUE HAD NOT ONLY HAPPENED ONCE BUT NOW TWICE, AND I AM CURRENTLY LEFT CAR LESS AS THE ISSUE CANNOT BE FIXED OR FOUND. A TUNE UP WAS DONE ON MY CAR, WIRES REPLACED, THE BATTERY REPLACED TWICE, AND A MODULE REPLACED DUE TO THE FAN FOR AIR CONDITIONING INTERMITTENTLY TURNING OFF AND ON ON IT'S OWN FOR NO RHYME OR REASON. I HAVE RECEIPTS FOR ALL STATED ABOVE REPLACEMENTS. HOWEVER, I HAVE KEPT THEM IN MY CAR RECENTLY DUE TO HAVE TO REPLACE MULTIPLE PARTS WITHIN ONLY A COUPLE MONTHS OF THE PART BEING REPLACED. NO ONE SEEMS TO BE ABLE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS TAKING PLACE, AND I AM CERTAINLY TIRED OF PAYING FOR PARTS TO REPLACE THE PROBLEM WHEN THEY HAVE NOT HELPED IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM. IT SEEMS TO ME IT IS MORE OF A MANUFACTURING ISSUE THAN A MAINTENANCE ISSUE. MORE OVER THE FIRST TIME THIS ISSUE OCCURRED I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND COULD'VE BEEN SEVERELY INJURED DUE TO CARS DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS AND NOT PAYING ATTENTION. THIS ISSUE IS REALLY DANGEROUS AND COULD BE LIFE THREATENING IF NOT HANDLED APPROPRIATELY. I WOULD HIGHLY SUGGEST SOMEONE LOOKING INTO THESE FAULTS BEFORE IT COSTS A LIFE.

I PULLED UP TO MY JOB AND PLACED MY CAR INTO PARK. I FELT MY CAR START TO COAST BACKWARDS SO I PLACED MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE PLACED MY CAR IN WHAT IT FELT WAS REVERSE AND BACK INTO PARK. I NOTICED WHEN I CHANGED SHIFTS THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFT WERE NOT CHANGING AND IT FELT LIKE MY SHIFT HANDLE WASNT ATTACHED TO ANYTHING. I CONTACT DODGE DEALERSHIP IN REGARDS OF RECALL NUMBER V34 (NHTSA 19V-293) WAS ADVISED THAT THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE BUT DODGE HAS NOT MADE PARTS WITH RECALL NUMBERS LOCATED ON THEM. THE TWO LOCATIONS I HAVE CALLED AND SPOKE WITH BOTH ADVISED THEY ARE UNSURE WHEN THE PARTS WILL COME, BUT I HAVE THE OPTION TO PAY OUT OF POCKET ($500) AND GET REIMBURSED AT A LATER TIME.

STEERING, SUSPENSION
WHEN PUTTING THE CAR INTO GEAR, AND TURNING THE WHEEL AND STARTING TO MOVE, THERE IS A POPPING/SNAPPING SOUND COMING FROM THE FRONT END. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP THREE TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE. FIRST TIME WHEN IT WENT TO THE SHOP, THEY REPLACE FRONT STRUT MOUNTS. THIS LASTED ABOUT 6 MONTHS AND THE NOISE HAS COME BACK. SECOND TIME THEY SAID I NEEDED A NEW TIE ROD. REPLACED AND WITHIN A WEEK LATER, COULD HEAR THE NOISE AGAIN. TOOK IT BACK TO THE SHOP AND THEY COULDN'T DIAGNOSE IT. THEY LOOSENED ALL THE NUTS AND BOLTS ON THE FRONT END, RETIGHTENED/TORQUED THEM, AND WITHIN A FEW DAYS AFTER LEAVING THE SHOP, THE NOISE CAME BACK.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE DRIVING I TRIED TO DEPRESS MY BRAKES AND THEY WERE EXTREMELY HARD TO DEPRESS. I ALMOST SLAMMED INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. I HAVE A MESSAGE ON MY DASH TO SERVICE ELECTRONIC BRAKING SYSTEM. WHILE DOING SOME RESEARCH I NOTICE THIS IS A ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THE DODGE DART. I NOTICED RECALLS ON PREVIOUS YEAR MODELS BUT NOT ON THE 2015 MODEL. GARAGE WANTS ALMOST $1000 TO REPAIR. HOPEFULLY THIS WILL GET RESOLVED WITH A RECALL SOON BEFORE SOMEBODY DIES.
