STRUCTURE
I AM HEAVILY DISAPPOINTED. I WENT HOME TO LOUISIANA FOR EASTER AND IT RAINED QUITE A BIT. I WAS PACKING TO GO HOME AND PRIOR TO WENT TO CLEAN OUT MY VEHICLE TO INCLUDE MY TRUNK. WHEN I PULLED EVERYTHING OUT...LINERS AND ALL, THE LEFT SIDE OF MY TRUNK UNDERNEATH THE LINERS WAS SOAKED. THE GRAY PADDING ON EVEN ON THE SIDE OF THE TRUNK WAS WAS WET. I CAME BACK HOME TO KANSAS, YESTERDAY IT WAS THE SAME. WE HAD A STORM ROLL THROUGH AND AGAIN MY TRUNK WAS EVEN MORE SOAKED. I HAVE TAKEN EVERYTHING OUT AND DRIED IT OUT, HOWEVER W THE CURRENT RAIN, IT DOES NO GOOD. I NOW DO NOT HAVE A PLEASANT SMELL IN MY TRUNK. WHEN I READ REVIEWS, ITS APPARENT THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE WITH THE DODGE VEHICLE AS WELL AS A FEW OTHER PRODUCTS, HOW THEY HECK IS IT OK TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM YET MAKE NO EFFORT TO FIX IT AND NOW I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT? I SWITCHED FROM A NISSAN ALTIMA TO THIS CAR, BIG MISTAKE. MY NISSAN WOULD HAVE NEVER LET ME DOWN, AND NISSAN WOULD HAVE NEVER KEPT PUTTING THE SAME MISTAKE OUT THERE. I HAVE OWNED THREE TWO OF WHICH I BOUGHT USED AT, AT LEAST 3 YEARS OLD AND ONE BRAND NEW NO MILES AND NEVER ONCE ANY PROBLEMS. I WAS NEVER LET DOWN. I BOUGHT THIS DODGE 2/8/13, BARELY 60 DAYS OLD TO ME AND ALREADY PISSED OFF. WAY TO GO DODGE. *TR

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE IS THAT THE ENGINE SOUNDS LIKE A PEA THRASHER WHEN ITS STARTED ON COLD MORNING. (IT SOUNDS LIKE A LIFTER THAT HAS LOST ITS PRIME). ALSO, THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS HARD, SURGES (OVER REVS) WHEN COMING TO S ATOP, AND AT TIMES WHEN ITS DOWN SHIFTING WHILE GOING DOWN A HILL, IT SLAMS INTO LOWER GEAR.. THERE ARE ADDITIONAL BODY SOUNDS THAT I HAVEN'T ADDRESSED YET. I WAS TOLD BY MECHANICS AND SERVICE TECH'S THAT THIS WAS A COMMON SOUND FROM MY SIZE ENGINE. THE HAVE RAN UPDATES, YET THE NOISES ARE STILL THERE. I MENTIONED THAT AT IDLE WITH THE HEADLIGHTS ON, IF I WAS TO POWER ANY OF THE WINDOWS, THE HEADLIGHTS DIM AND THEN ENGINE DROPS FROM APPROXIMATELY 950 RPM TO BELOW 500 AND STALLED THE ENGINE. ...

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH MY THROTTLE BODY AND LOSING POWER IN MY CAR. ALL MY ATTEMPTS TO FIX IT HAVE FAILED. NOW MY CAR WILL ONLY GET UP TO ABOUT TEN MPH. WITH THE LIGHTING BOLT FLASHING ON MY DASH BOARD. I HAVE TALKED TO MECHANICS AT A DODGE DEALERSHIP AND THE SAY THEY HAVEN'T HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM AND THAT IS A FLAT OUT LIE. THEY JUST KEEP TRYING TO FIX THIS AND THAT AND IT DOES NOT WORK. THIS PART NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED AND DODGE TRYING TO COVER UP WHAT HUNDREDS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT IS NOT FAIR TO US AS CONSUMERS SPENDING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS OUT OF POCKET AND THERE IS ONLY TEMPORARY FIXES. *TR

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
EVER SINCE I PURCHASED MY 2008 DODGE AVENGER I HAVE BEEN BURDENED WITH A MULTITUDE OF ISSUES. MY CAR STALLED WHILE I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT, NO WARNING..IT JUST DIED. TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT WAS ALWAYS ON. VEHICLE LAUNCHES/ JERKS FORWARD WHEN CRUISING AT A SPEED OF 45 OR BELOW. (AND THIS ALL HAPPENED WITH MY FIRST YEAR OF OWNING THE CAR IN 2008) IN 2011 GEAR STICK GOT STUCK IN THE PARK POSITION..I CAN GO ON BUT SECTION IS FOR AIRBAGS, WHICH DID NOT DEPLOY DURING AN ACCIDENT I HAD LAST YEAR, 2012. I SLIPPED ON BLACK ICE, WHICH SENT MY CAR INTO A TAIL SPIN RESULTING ME HITTING...ACTUALLY BOUNCING OFF OF THE GUARD RAIL A FEW TIMES. PRIOR TO THE 2012 ACCIDENT I HAVE HAD INSTANCES WHERE THE AIRBAG LIGHTS WOULD RANDOMLY TURN ON, INDICATING A PROBLEM..THEN SHUTTING OFF BY ITSELF. I WOULD SCHEDULE APPOINTMENTS WITH THE DEALERSHIP, BUT BY THE TIME THE APPOINTMENT DATE ARRIVES, THE AIRBAG LIGHT WOULD MAGICALLY DISAPPEAR! I CALLED DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE TODAY, AS THE AIRBAG INDICATOR IS BACK ON AGAIN..I WAS TOLD BY THE REPRESENTATIVE THAT THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY CAN DO FOR ME. SHE BASICALLY TOLD ME THAT I'M FRESH OUT OF LUCK, EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A RECALL, AND I AM EXPERIENCING THE EXACT AIRBAG ISSUE AS DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL, OWN THE EXACT MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR VEHICLE. SHE SAID MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, SO THERE IS NOTHING DODGE CAN DO. I THINK THE ENTIRE 2008 DODGE AVENGER FLEETS ARE LEMONS AND IT IS ABOUT TIME DODGE OWN UP TO THEIR MISTAKES, THEY HAVE NO REGARD FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS SAFETY. WHEN YOU ARE NOT STALLING ON THE HIGHWAYS AND BYWAYS, YOU ARE LEFT STRANDED BECAUSE YOU CAN NOT SHIFT YOUR GEAR OUT OF PARK...OH AND THE AIRBAG ISSUE...ITS CRUCIAL, BUT UNFORTUNALELY DODGE DOES NOT THINK SO. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND COULD NOT GO OVER 30 MPH. THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE LIGHT CAME ON AND WAS FLASHING. I GOT OFF AT THE NEXT EXIT AND HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED. *TR A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER, TRIED THE VEHICLE AND IT DID RUN FINE AGAIN. AFTER A COUPLE MORE DAYS, THE SPEED WAS NOT WHAT IT SHOULD BE. MOVED VERY SLOW AND THE RPM WENT HIGH BEFORE IT WOULD CHANGE GEARS. LOST POWER ESPECIALLY GOING UP HILL. HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY. COULD NOT GO OVER 30 MPH. BARELY MADE IT UP A HILL AND TO WORK. HAVING THE VEHICLE TOWED AGAIN.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHEN FILLING UP GAS TANK, PUMP DOESN'T SHUT OFF PROPERLY. HAPPENS AT EVERY PUMP. HAD GAS TANK REPLACED ONCE BECAUSE FUEL TANK ROLLOVER VALVE HAD MELTED SHUT. WORKED FOR ABOUT 1,000 MILES WITH NEW TANK, ONCE AGAIN SHOOTS OUT GAS AND DOES NOT SHUT OFF AUTOMATICALLY. SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH DODGE AVENGERS 2008, HOWEVER DODGE DOES NOTHING ABOUT IT. EPA WILL GO CRAZY IF THEY FIND OUT, ALONG WITH THE FACT THAT IT IS OUTRIGHT DANGEROUS TO HAVE FUEL COMING BACK OUT OF THE TANK ONTO THE GROUND. GREATER THAN HALF A GALLON COMES OUT EACH TIME. SLOWING PUMPING, BURPING, FUELING FAST, HOLDING NOZZLES AT DIFFERENT DEPTHS DOES NOTHING TO ALLEVIATE ISSUE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AT A LOW SPEED WITH A TOTAL LOSS OF POWER. DIAGNOSTIC CODE INDICATED LOSS OF POWER TO THE THROTTLE BODY. COULD NOT LOCATE THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM. SINCE THEN HAVE EXPERIENCED SEVERAL MORE TIMES AT HIGHER SPEEDS SOMETIMES WITH A LOSS OF POWER SOMETIMES NO LOSS OF POWER. THROTTLE BODY CLEANED, SENSORS REPLACED, STILL CONTINUE TO HAVE ISSUES. HAVE NOT HAD ANY DIAGNOSTIC CODES COME UP IN THE RECENT EVENTS. TODAY THE ETC LIGHT CAME ON AT 65MPH AND WENT OFF, THEN CONTINUED TO COME ON AND OFF SEVERAL TIMES OVER 15 MILES AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ONCE I WAS ABLE TO STOP TRIED TO PULL CODES AND THERE WERE NONE, THE SYSTEM CHECKED OUT WITH NO PROBLEMS INDICATED. THROUGH RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH DODGE ETC EVEN AFTER OWNERS HAVE THE THROTTLE BODY REPLACED. *TR

STEERING, ENGINE
CAR WAS PURCHASED AT THE END OF OCTOBER WITH 17 MILES ON IT. VERY SHORTLY AFTER, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE DEALERSHIP TURNED THE LIGHT OFF AND IT CAME BACK ON A DAY OR SO LATER. THEY TURNED IT OFF AND SUPPOSEDLY CHECKED THE CAR. A WHILE AFTER NOISES STARTED TO BECOME MORE PREVALENT. THE MAIN NOISE IS COMING FROM THE STEERING COLUMN AREA. IT HAPPENS WHEN THERE ARE SHARP TURNS, BACKING AND TURNING, AND IF ITS COLD. THE NOISE IS HARD TO DESCRIBE. IT SOUNDS LIKE A THUMP/CLICKING TYPE OF NOISE. VERY ANNOYING AND SOMEWHAT ALARMING SINCE THE DEALERSHIP HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX IT IN SEVERAL MONTHS...ANOTHER NOISE IS COMING FROM A LITTLE TO THE LEFT OF STEERING COLUMN. THIS IS MORE OF A FAINT NOISE. SOUNDS LIKE SMALL CLICKING. ONE OTHER NOISE CAME FROM THE CENTER OF THE FRONT OF THE CAR. IT SOUNDED LIKE SOMETHING JUST DROPPED. LIKE SOMETHING JUST FELL DOWN. IT WAS VERY SCARY ACTUALLY. THE DEALERSHIP HAS WORKED FOR MONTHS TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR AND HAVE BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL. THIS WAS MY FIRST PURCHASE EVER AND I AM VERY UNHAPPY. I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE BUT I AM NOT CONVINCED. I THINK IT IS AN ISSUE THAT HASN'T BEEN BROUGHT UP VERY MUCH YET. THE CARS ARE BRAND NEW AND PEOPLE ARE STILL BREAKING THEM IN AND SUCH. I DO NOT FEEL AS SAFE AS I HAD IN THIS CAR. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE DODGE AGAIN. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE USED IN JANUARY 2012 AND EVERY SINGLE TIME I FUEL UP, NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION, ETC. THE FUEL SHUTOFF DOES NOT WORK AND GAS IS SPEWED ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR ALONG WITH ME OR ANYTHING ELSE CLOSE TO THE CAR. THE ONLY WAY TO AVOID THIS IT TO GUESS AT WHEN IT IS GETTING FULL AND STOP IT BEFORE IT GETS FULL. THIS HAS TO BE A SAFETY HAZARD AS IT IS SPEWING GASOLINE EVERYWHERE. I HAVE SEEN MANY REPORTS OF THIS PROBLEM AND ALL SUGGEST A FUEL TANK REPLACEMENT AT AROUND $1000. NOT MANY PEOPLE CAN AFFORD THAT AND THIS IS JUST AN ACCIDENT/EXPLOSION WAITING TO HAPPEN. THIS SHOULD DEFINITELY BE A RECALL. *TR

ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
ON 3/11/13, I REPORTED TO DODGE CASE # [XXX] THAT WHEN DRIVING ON WET / DAMP ROADS THE CAR WILL STALL OUT FOR NO REASON. THIS HAS HAPPEND TO ME WHILE STOPPED AT A LIGHT, SLOWING DOWN GOING THROUGH A TOLL OR EVEN WHILE TURNING IN AN INTERSECTION. I HAVE FELT IT TO START TO STALL WHILE DRIVING AT 65 AND HAVE HIT THE GAS TO STOP THE PROBLEM. I PHONED DODGE WHO TOLD ME ... SORRY THERE ARE NO RECALLS. I THEN PHONED MY LOCAL DODGE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHO IMMEDIATELY TOLD ME THAT YES THEY HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM IN THE PAST, THE SUGGESTED IS A SENSOR ON THE THROTTLE OR THROTTLE BODY. THE COST FOR REPAIR IS AROUND $750. I HAPPENED TO SEE THERE WAS ANOTHER COMPLAINT ON YOUR SITE REGARDING THIS. BECAUSE I FEEL AS THOUGH THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS DANGER HAZARD, I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION # [XXX]WHO SUGGESTED I CONTACT YOU. I THINK THIS IS A VERY LARGE CONCERN AND SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. I WILL BE PAYING THE MONEY TO GET MY VEHICLE FIXED OUT OF CONCERN FOR MY OWN AND OTHERS SAFETY. I DRIVE THE INTERSTATE EVERYDAY TO WORK 65 - 75 MPH AND HAVE TO DRIVE EITHER IN THE RIGHT OR LEFT LANE IN CASE MY CAR STALLS. I WAS LUCKY THAT WHEN MY CALL STALLED WHILE TRYING TO PULL AWAY FROM A RED LIGHT I WAS NOT REAR ENDED. I AM HOPEFUL YOU WILL SEE THE SENSE OF URGENCY AND PUSH DODGE TO DO A RECALL. I DO NOT THINK THIS SHOULD BE THE CONSUMERS ESPENSE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
