MY CAR HAS BEEN AT DEWEY SINCE JULY 23RD FOR A SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT. WHEN I DROPPED MY CAR OFF, IT WAS PLUGGED INTO THE COMPUTER AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE CODE THAT POPPED UP WAS FOR A RECALL ON A TRANSMISSION MODULE AND ONCE THE SERVICE TECH LOOKED AT IT, I WOULD RECEIVE A CALL REGARDING ANY COSTS AND TIME OF REPAIR. AS I WAS LEAVING ON VACATION FOR THE WEEK, I WAS NOT TOO CONCERNED. SATURDAY 7/25 - I RECEIVED A CALL THAT A PART WAS ON ORDER AND THE CAR SHOULD BE READY MONDAY OR TUESDAY. AGAIN, AS I WAS ON VACATION, I SAID THAT WOULD BE JUST FINE. I STARTED CALLING AND TEXTING MY SERVICE ADVISOR, TRENT, THURSDAY (7/30) MORNING. I DID NOT HEAR ANYTHING FROM HIM UNTIL SATURDAY (8/1). HE STATED HE FORGOT TO CALL ME BUT THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH MY CAR. HE SAID THE MODULE WAS REPLACED AND WHEN THEY WENT TO START THE CAR, THERE WAS NO POWER. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS FRIED. HE SAID THAT THE LEAD TECH WOULD LOOK AT IT MONDAY AND WE WOULD GO FROM THERE. TUESDAY 8/4 - I RECEIVED A CALL FROM TRENT THAT THE LEAD TECH NEEDED TO REACH OUT TO CHRYSLER FOR ASSISTANCE. FRIDAY 8/7 - RECEIVED A CALL THAT CHRYSLER WAS SENDING ANOTHER MODULE AND IT SHOULD BE THERE MONDAY. MONDAY 8/8 - WE HAD THE STORM AND I DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING WHICH IS UNDERSTANDABLE. THURSDAY 8/6 - RECEIVED A CALL THAT THE MODULE DID NOT WORK. CHRYSLER DECIDED TO SEND A WHOLE NEW TRANSMISSION. IT WILL BE HERE MONDAY OR TUESDAY AND WILL KNOW MORE BY END OF THE WEEK. MONDAY 8/10 - EMAIL SENT TO GM AT DEWEY EXPRESSING CONCERN. SPOKE WITH HIM REGARDING TRADING IN CAR OR ADDITIONAL WARRANTY ON MY CAR. TOLD NO ADDITIONAL WARRANTY WILL BE GIVEN. TRANSFER TO SALES. THURSDAY 8/13 - TOLD MY CAR WOULD BE READY EARLY NEXT WEEK. WEDNESDAY 8/17 - CALLED SERVICE AGAIN. WERE TOLD NOT SURE THAT THE NEW TRANSMISSION EVEN ARRIVED. WILL CALL BACK. DRIVE THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP AND MY CAR IS JUST SITTING OUTSIDE IN THE LOT.

I PULLED IN PARKING LOT AND WENT TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, ALL THE GEAR LETTERS TURNED RED AND IT DIDN'T DISPLAY, BY THE FUEL GAUGE, WHICH GEAR I WAS IN LIKE IT USUALLY DOES. I DIDN'T ACTUALLY KNOW IF I WAS IN PARK BECAUSE ALL LIGHTS ON SHIFTER WERE LIT IN RED. WHEN I TRIED TO SHIFT UP TO PARK AS MUCH AS I COULD IT MADE A CLICKING NOISE EACH TIME. SO I TURNED THE CAR OFF...AND THEN BACK ON. HAPPENED AGAIN A WEEK LATER. I TOOK IT TO HAVE COMPUTER ANALYSIS RUN ON IT. INDICATED A FAULT IN THE TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT. CHECKED RECALL ON VEHICLE. SHOWS THERE IS A RECALL ON TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS POSSIBLE ON DODGE DARTS 2013-2015 MODELS.

SERVICE BRAKES
CAR IS EXPERIENCING A FLUCTUATING BRAKE PEDAL. AT TIMES, I WILL HAVE TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE DOWN TO THE FLOOR TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP PROPERLY. OTHER TIMES... IT IS FINE AND NORMAL PEDAL PRESSURE IS PRESENT. FLUID LEVEL IS FINE. IT IS A BIT DISCONCERTING WHEN YOU GO TO HIT THE BRAKES AND THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES TO THE FLOOR BEFORE YOU HAVE ENOUGH PRESSURE TO STOP THE CAR. MY FEAR IS THAT IN A SITUATION WHERE I NEED TO BRAKE QUICKLY, IT COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

WOULD NOT START FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES, THEN STARTED AND RAN FINE. ON THE WAY TO THE MECHANIC, TRANSMISSION WENT INTO NEUTRAL ON THE HIGHWAY. LUCKILY I WAS NEAR AN EXIT, I HAD TO COAST OFF THE HIGHWAY. THE TRANSMISSION SHOP AND AN AUTO ELECTRIC SHOP TOLD ME THE TCM AND THE VALVE BODY INSIDE THE TRANSMISSION WERE FAULTY AND NEEDED REPLACING. THE TRANSMISSION SHOP TOLD ME THEY CALLED CHRYSLER AND WERE TOLD THEY WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND THAT IT WAS A PROGRAM ISSUE AND REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION WOULD FIX NOTHING. THEN CHRYSLER TOLD THEM IF THEY FIGURE IT OUT, TO LET THEM KNOW. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
ON THREE OCCASIONS, MY CAR HAS COMPLETELY TURNED OFF WHILE THE CAR WAS ON AND IN DRIVE. ON ONE OCCASION, IN SEPTEMBER 2019, I DRIFTED TO SAFETY AND TRIED PUTTING MY CAR IN PARK, THE SHIFTER EFFORTLESSLY SLID TO PARK MODE BUT THE LIGHT WAS ON "D" AS IF IT WERE IN DRIVE. I COULD NOT TAKE MY KEY OUT BECAUSE MY CAR THOUGHT IT WAS IN DRIVE SO I WAS STUCK WITH MY FOOT ON THE BREAK, WITH A CAR THAT SHUT DOWN ON ME. I COULDN'T EVEN MOVE THE KEY TO TRY TO TAKE IT OUT AND RESTART THE CAR. I BROUGHT MY CAR IN AND "FIXED IT'. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A V34 RECALL AND THAT THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION SIDE SHIFTER CABLE BUSHING. HOWEVER, LESS THAN A YEAR LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN, TWICE TODAY (JUNE 2020). ONCE ON MY WAY TOO THE GYM AND ONCE FROM THE GYM, BACK HOME. ON BOTH OCCASIONS TODAY, THE ELECTRONICS ON THE TOUCH SCREEN AND THE DIGITAL DISPLAY THAT DISPLAYS THE SPEED WENT BLACK AND RESTARTED THEN MY CAR COMPLETELY DIED WHILE IN DRIVE. CARS PILED UP BEHIND ME. PEOPLE WERE HONKING AND ANGRY. I TRIED MOVING THE SHIFTER TO PARK SO I COULD TAKE MY KEY OUT AND RESTART BUT THE CAR LOCKED UP ON ME AND I WAS UNABLE TO MOVE THE SHIFT OR TAKE MY KEY OUT. I HAD TO WIGGLE THE KEY OUT FOR OVER A COUPLE MIN AND EVENTUALLY WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE KEY IN PARK AND TAKE IT OUT AND RESTARTED MY CAR. IT CAUSED A TRAFFIC DILEMMA AND WAS TERRIFYING THAT MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN IN A NOT SO SAFE AREA AND ON A REALLY BUSY ROAD DURING RUSH HOUR. HOW COULD YOU SELL A CAR TO SOCIETY THAT WILL SPONTANEOUSLY STOP? I COULD HAVE DIED! *TR

WHEN TURNING THE CAR OFF, THE KEY FOB GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION. THIS SOMETIMES CAN BE RESOLVED BY TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL, PRESSING ON THE BRAKE AND ADJUSTING THE SHIFTER FORWARD TO CLICK INTO PARK. IT'S AS IF THE SHIFTER IS NOT RECOGNIZING THE CAR IS IN PARK SO IT WILL NOT RELEASE THE KEY FOB. IT COULD USUALLY BY FIXED EASILY, NOW TAKES SOMETIMES 1-3 MINUTES; WHICH INCLUDES RESTARTING THE CAR AND PUTTING IT IN REVERSE OR DRIVE AND BACK INTO PARK. IT HAPPENS FREQUENTLY & THEN WILL STOP FOR A FEW DAYS. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP LAST WEEK FOR THIS ISSUE AND THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPING FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL WHILE I'M DRIVING AND THEY 'COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM' AS THEY STATED. HOWEVER, JUST THE PAST TWO DAYS IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN. THIS IS SIMILAR TO THE ISSUE FROM THE 2019 RECALL FOR THE BUSHING CABLES. THERE IS AN OBVIOUS ISSUE AS THIS IS NOT NORMAL. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO TO FIX THIS IF THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY CAN'T FIND A PROBLEM. IS THERE A NEW RECALL OR OTHER SIMILAR COMPLAINTS? ESPECIALLY FROM OTHER DODGE DART OWNERS WHO ALSO HAD A PART REPAIRED IN 2019 DUE TO THE LAST RECALL? *TR

ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS I HAVE GOTTEN INTO MY VEHICLE, STARTED IT AND DROVE OFF. NOW, IF I DO NOT LET IT WARM UP FOR A FEW MINUTES AND GET IN AND START IT AND TAKE OFF, IT WILL STALL OUT WHEN I SLOW DOWN OR COME TO A STOP ON A FEW OCCASIONS THIS HAS HAPPENED LEAVING MY DRIVEWAY ON A BLIND HILL, ALMOST GETTING ME HIT IN THE DRIVERS DOOR. YESTERDAY, 2/12/2020, THIS AGAIN HAPPENED AND IT STALLED OUT ON ME TWO TIMES, ONCE WHILE TURNING AROUND LEAVING ME SIDEWAYS ACROSS THE ROAD. IT HAS HAPPENED AT VERY BUSY INTERSECTIONS, IT IS JUST RANDOM.I FEEL IT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO. I DID LOOK IT UP AND SEE NUMEROUS PEOPLE ARE REPORTING THE SAME ISSUES. LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS ON 2/12/2020 WHILE LEAVING MY DRIVEWAY EACH TIME, THE CAR WAS IN DRIVE WHEN IT STALLED AND PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY OR INTERSECTION.
