FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I BOUGHT A NEW 2005 DODGE DAKOTA FROM HERITAGE DODGE (REISTERTOWN MD)PARTIALLY BECAUSE OF THE GAS MILAGE ADVERTISED AT 16MPG CITY/20MPG HIGHWAY. I HAVE BEEN MONITORING THE MPG AND FOUND OUT THAT I AM GETTING 9 MILES PER GALLON NO MATTER WHERE I DRIVE(CITY OR HIGHWAY). THIS IS A MID-SIZE TRUCK AND SHOULD BE GETTING BETTER MPG. I HAVE CONTACTED MY SALESPERSON(TIM) AND HE REFERRED ME TO CALL ROB SCHMIDT(SERVICE DEPT.???) WHO HAS NOT RETURNED ANY OF MY NUMEROUS PHONE CALLS TO CHECK ON THIS PROBLEM. MY SALESPERSON(TIM) TOLD MY WIFE ON THE PHONE THAT THE TRUCK SHOULD BE GETTING BETTER MILAGE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW DODGE CAN ADVERTISE ON THE STICKER THESE FALSE MILES PER GALLON WHEN THEY KNOW THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY FALSE. TOM

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS
I OWN A 2005 DODGE DAKOTA WHICH I PURCHASED IN AUGUST. WITHIN THE LAST TWO WEEKS, I'VE EXPERIENCED SEVERE BRAKE SHUTTER. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE VEHICLE DOES NOT FEEL SAFE. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER I BOUGHT IT FROM FOR SERVICE ON THE BRAKES. I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE SERVICE ADVISOR THE SAME DAY STATING THAT THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING TO FIX THE BRAKE PROBLEM. HE ALSO STATED THAT DODGE IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND IS WORKING ON A KIT TO REMEDY IT. THIS STATEMENT LEADED ME TO RESEARCH WHO ELSE MAY BE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. TO MY SURPRISE I FOUND THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN KNOWN, BY DODGE, FOR AT LEAST SIX MONTHS. THEY HAVE A TSB #05-004-05 FOR THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS BY OTHER DAKOTA OWNERS ABOUT THEIR FRUSTRATION WITH RESOLVING THE BRAKE PROBLEM. THEY'VE HAD THEIR TRUCKS IN THE SHOP MULTIPLE TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM WITH NO RESOLUTION. I UNDERSTAND THEIR FRUSTRATION. WHEN YOU EXPERIENCE THE SHUTTER WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES, IT IS FRIGHTENING. VEHICLES SHOULD NOT MAKE YOU FEEL UNSAFE, ESPECIALLY A NEW ONE. WHY CAN'T DODGE REMEDY THIS PROBLEM AND WHY IF THEY HAVE KNOWN OF THIS PROBLEM, WHY DID THEY NOT INFORM ME OF THIS WHEN I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK TWO MONTHS AGO? I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND ALL THE DEALER CAN DO IS LET ME KNOW WHEN DODGE HAS ISSUED A KIT TO FIX THE PROBLEM. SO MUCH FOR CUSTOMER CARE! *NM

AIR BAGS
I WAS INVOLVED IN A SINGLE CAR ACCIDENT WITH MY 2005 DODGE DAKOTA TRUCK. IN WHICH I HIT A POLE. I WAS DRIVING THE SPEED LIMIT WHICH WAS 35 MPH. WHEN I HIT THE POLE MY AIR BAGS DID NOT GO OFF. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER THEY SAID THAT THERE ARE SENSORS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BUMPER. WHEN I TOOK PICTURES OF THE BUMPER THEY SHOW THAT I HIT IT WITHIN INCHES OF THE CENTER OF THE BUMPER. WHEN I TOOK THOSE PICTURES TO THE DEALER THEY SAID THAT THE SENSORS ARE ON THE SUPPORT BEAMS. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY THEY DIDN'T GO OFF AND IF THERE WAS OR IS ANY RECALLS ON THIS. *JB

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DRUM:DRUM
AT 470 MILES, MY 2005 DODGE DAKOTA CLUB CAB DEVELOPED A BAD SHIMMY/VIBRATION WHENEVER THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. THE DEALERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT DETERMINED THAT THE REAR BRAKE DRUMS WERE DEFECTIVE. THEY REPLACED THEM UNDER WARRANTY AND SEVERAL DAYS LATER THE PROBLEM RETURNED. THEY MACHINED THE REAR DRUMS AND PUT THEM BACK ON THE VEHICLE. AT 1472 MILES I HAD TO RETURN TO THE DEALER AGAIN. THE SAME VIBRATION UPON APPLICATION OF THE BRAKES HAD RETURNED, ONLY WORSE. THEY CONFIRMED THE PROBLEM AND MACHINED THE DRUMS ONE LAST TIME. THIS FIX ONLY WORKED FOR A FEW MORE DAYS. THE SHIMMY/VIBRATION WAS GONE, ONLY TO BE REPLACED BY A LOUD THUMPING NOISE FROM THE REAR END WHENEVER BRAKES WERE APPLIED. AT THIS TIME, THE VEHICLE HAD JUST OVER 1700 MILES ON IT. I RETURNED TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT ON 13 SEPTEMBER 2005 AND THE SERVICE TEAM MADE 6 MORE ATTEMPTS TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM, INCLUDING BRAND NEW DRUMS, MACHINING OF SAME AND TRYING DRUMS FROM ANOTHER 2005 DAKOTA IN THEIR INVENTORY. NOTHING WORKED. THE PROBLEM IS WORSE THAN EVER. THEY HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 10 DAYS AND COULD NOT FIX IT! IT WAS RETURNED TO ME STILL DEFECTIVE ON 22 SEPTEMBER 2005. I SENT A CERTIFIED LETTER TO DAIMLER CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CENTER ON 23 SEPTEMBER 2005 NOTIFYING THEM OF MY INTENT TO INVOKE MY RIGHTS UNDER ALABAMA LEMON LAW SECTION 8-20A. I WANT A FULL REFUND. THIS IS RIDICULOUS! *JB

POWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLY
BRAND NEW 2005 DODGE DAKOTA HAS THE WRONG AXLE ON IT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. WHEN I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IT ONLY HAD 9 MILES ON IT. I PUT IT IN THE REPAIR SHOP FOR THE AXLE AND NOW IT HAS 1,000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS FRAUDULENT. *JB

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
DT: THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DAKOTA LARAMIE. THE CONTACT STATED WHEN IT RAINS WATER IS SUCKED UP THROUGH THE AIR INTAKE AND FORCED TO THE BACK OF THE ENGINE, CAUSING IT TO GO INTO THE PISTONS. THERE WAS NO PLACE FOR THE WATER TO GO SO IT BROKE THE NUMBER FIVE PISTON. THE CONSUMER WILL HAVE TO COVER THE EXPENSE OF HAVING THE VEHICLE REPAIRED BECAUSE THE REPAIR WILL NOT BE COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. THE DEALERSHIP WILL HAVE TO PULL THE HEAD AND REPLACE THE NUMBER FIVE PISTON. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AND THE VEHICLE STARTED MISSING.*AK

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:COOLING UNIT AND LINES
ALL 2005 DODGE DAKOTAS WERE BUILT MISSING SOME OF ITS TRAILER TOW PACKAGE OPTIONS, FIRST IS THE AUX. TRANS COOLER, SECOND IS THE HEAVYDUTY COOLING SYSTEM, I COMPARED MINE TO EVERYONE ON THE LOT AND THEY WERE ALL BUILT THE SAME WAY. I FELL AS IF CHRYSLER IS MISS LEADING THE CONSUMER. I CONTACTED CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE SEVERAL TIMES ONLY TO GET THE RUN AROUND AND I WAS ALWAYS REFERRED BACK TO THE DEALER WHO IN MY OPINION WAS NOT ONLY RUDE, REFUSED TO RETURN MY PHONE CALLS, ALTHOUGH I AM VERY UNSATISFIED WITH THE DEALERS RESPONCE IN THE MATTER, I IM VERY UPSET WITH CHRYSLER DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE THE COMPANY WHO MADE AND ADVERTISED THE VEH. AND LISTED IT'S OPTIONS. THE LOVE THE TRUCK BUT I JUST WISH IT HAD THE OPTIONS I PAID FOR.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
DT: THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE DAKOTA. THE CONTACT STATED IMMEDIATELY HE BEGAN EXPERIENCING THE BRAKE PEDAL PULSATING. THE SERVICE DEALER DID NOT RECOGNIZE THE PROBLEM. THE CONTACT STATED HE KEPT EXPERIENCING THE PROBLEM, AND IT DID GET WORSE. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE FRONT BRAKE ROTORS, BUT THIS DID NOT REMEDY THE PROBLEM. ALSO, THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE REAR BRAKE DRUMS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THIS DID ALMOST FIX THE PROBLEM, BUT AFTER A WEEK OF DRIVING, THE PULSATION APPEARED AGAIN. THE SERVICE DEALER EXAMINED THE VEHICLE, AND STATED THEY DID NOT FEEL THE PULSATION. THEY WERE DOING THE BEST THEY COULD FOR THE CONSUMER.*AK *NM UPDATED 07/25/06. *JB

I PURCHASED MY 05 DODGE DAKOTA QUAD CAB IN MAY 2005. APPROX. 1 MONTH AFTER PURCHASE I STARTED EXPERIENCING SEVERE VIBRATION WHEN TRYING TO COME TO A STOP OR SLOW DOWN ESPECIALLY OVER 40 MPH. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP IN WHICH I PURCHASED (SERVICE DEPT) AND THEY TOLD ME THE REAR AXLE IS OUT OF FACTORY SPECS. THEY REPLACED MY REAR AXLE & DRUMS. THIS TOOK 5 DAYS.

(IT IS STILL THERE AND IT HAS BEEN 12 DAYS) THEY TELL ME THEY HAVE REPLACED THE AXLE 5 TIMES AND THE VIBRATION IS STILL THERE. I CONTACTED DIAMLERCHYSLER AND THEY ARE SENDING A REP. FROM THEIR OFFICE TO TRY AND REPAIR. I HAVE ALREADY FILED FOR THE LEMON LAW (DEFECTIVE VEHICLE FORM) AS I HAVE BEEN WITHOUT MY VEHICLE FOR MORE THAN 15 DAYS. STILL HAVE NOT HEARD A THING FROM THE DEALERSHIP OR FROM DAIMLERCHRYSLER.

VISIBILITY:REARVIEW MIRRORS/DEVICES:EXTERIOR
DT: CONTACT STATES THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW WITHIN THE 2005 DODGE DAKOTA WITH THE TRAILER TOWING PACKAGE. THE OUTSIDE MIRRORS THAT ARE MOUNTED ON THE DOOR ARE SO BIG THAT THEY HINDER THE VIEW OF THE RIGHT SIDE OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE CONTACT STATES HE HAS TO LOOK OVER OR AROUND THE MIRROR TO SEE IF THERE IS ANY ONCOMING TRAFFIC. ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS THE CONSUMER ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE HE COULD NOT SEE BEHIND THE MIRROR. THE CONSUMER FEELS THAT THERE COULD BE A BETTER DESIGN WITH THE MIRRORS. HE SUGGESTS FIRST THAT THE MIRROR MOUNTING COULD BE DESIGNED WITH AN OPENING OR MOUNTED LOWER ON THE VEHICLE. THE SALESMAN AT THE SERVICE DEALER STATED THIS WAS NOT THE FIRST COMPLAINT ABOUT THE MIRRORS. *AK *NM

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS
WE BOUGHT A NEW 2005 DODGE DAKOTA QUAD CAB V-6 FROM MAGNUSSENS IN ABURN CALIFORNIA. WHEN PARKING FROM OUR RETURN TRIP 200 MILES AWAY WE NOTICED A RUBBING NOISE, ALMOST AS IF THE TIRES ARE RUBBING. MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DODGE DEALERSHIP IN OUR AREA FOR JULY 19TH. THEY INSPECTED THE TRUCK AND SAID THAT THE SERPENTINE BELT AND TENSIONER WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THIS, IF NOT FIXED COULD CAUSE LOSE OF POWER STEERING, AC ETC. AS STATED IN THE OWNERS MANUALLY. HOWEVER, THEY COULD NOT PERFORM THE WORK UNTIL THEY CALLED CHRYSLER CORP AND GET AUTHORIZATION. THIS TOOK 1 WEEK. I CALLED MAGNUSSENS OF AUBURN TO LET THEM KNOW. DID NOT GET A FOLLOW UP. DIDN'T EVEN GET THE REPORT CARD ON THE BUSINESS THE WERE SO ANXIOUS FOR US TO GET AND FILL OUT REGARDING THERE SERVICE. SPORT CHRYSLER REPAIRED THE TRUCK. ALSO AT THIS TIME THE BRAKE LINES WERE ADJUSTED THE BRAKE HOSES WERE EXTREMELY TIGHT, THIS COULD CAUSE THE BRAKE LINES TO ABRUPT. SEE OTHER COMPLAINT REGARDING ROTORS, AND SUSPENSION. *** WC
