ENGINE
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE DART. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE ENGINE MADE A KNOCKING SOUND AND THE VEHICLE OPERATED ROUGHLY, JERKED, HESITATED, AND DID NOT IMMEDIATELY RESPOND WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL UNKNOWN DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LOW ON OIL, ALTHOUGH THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS ROUTINELY TAKEN TO IN FOR OIL CHANGES. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 500.

THIS IS THE THIRD COMPLAINT I HAVE FIELD ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM. MY CAR IS TURNING OFF WHILE DRIVING. AT 50,281 MILES MY CARS MOTOR TURNED OFF WILE I WAS DRIVING. USUALLY IT WILL GO ABOUT 1000 MILES OR SO BEFORE IT TURNS OFF AGAIN. THIS TIME WAS A BIT SOONER. WHILE LEAVING MY HOUSE TO TAKE MY BROTHERS INHALER TO HIS SCHOOL, MY CAR TURNED OFF. I HAD JUST GOT DOWN TO THE END OF THE STREET AND STARTED TO TURN OFF OF SUNNYSLOPE LN AND ONTO 95TH AVE AND MY CAR TURNED OFF. THIS TIME A LADY IN A WHITE LEXUS SUV ALMOST HIT MY CAR BECAUSE I WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE QUICKLY. THANK GOD FOR THAT LADYS LEXUS BEING ABLE TO STOP IN TIME.

SERVICE BRAKES, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
VACUUM PUMP LEAKING OIL AND A BURNING SMELL COMES THROUGH THE VENTS WHEN BRAKES ARE PUSHED, ALSO CAUSED THE O2 SENSOR TO GO BAD AND A/C TO NOT WORK LIKE IT SHOULD. THIS HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING AND YOU PUSH THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN OR COME TO A STOP.

THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME. WHILE DRIVING, THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF. COULD BE GOING AS SLOW AS 15MPH TO AS FAST AS 70 MPH. THIS TIME IT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN CALIFORNIA WHILE ON VACATION. I GOT TO THE END OF THE STREET AND BOOM ENGINE SHUTS OFF. TO RESTART THE CAR YOU HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, CHANGE GEAR INTO NEUTRAL OR PARK AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED AND I HAVE SINCE STARTED RECORDING THE MILEAGE WHEN IT HAPPENS. MILEAGE WAS AT 49,218

THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED THE LAST TIME MY MILEAGE WAS AT 49,218 THIS TIME MY MILEAGE WAS AT 51,068. BASICALLY WHAT HAPPENS IS: WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE (MOSTLY ON CITY STREETS) THE CARS ENGINE WILL RANDOMLY SHUT OFF. IN ORDER TO RESTART THE CAR YOU HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN PARK OR NEUTRAL AND RESTART THE CAR. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE CAR BUT I NEED IT FIXED BEFORE MY WARRANTY EXPIRES.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
IN MOTION - ON I-75 EXPRESSWAY, ENTRANCE RAMP MERGE. COULD HAVE BEEN LIFE THREATENING OR FATAL TO STALL WHILE MERGING ONTO EXTREMELY BUSY EXPRESSWAY. WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT WILL STALL AT DIFFERENT TIMES, NO WARNING, NO WARNING LIGHTS, ETC.. VERY DANGEROUS. GRANDDAUGHTER WAS ENTERING THE EXPRESSWAY AND JUST AS SHE WAS MERGING THE CAR STALLED. SHE WAS STILL ROLLING AND SWERVED OFF THE EXPRESSWAY ONTO THE EMERGENCY STRIP AND THEN GRASSY AREA. SHE BARELY AVOIDED A SEMI SIDESWIPE/COLLISION. BEFORE TAKING CAR TO DEALERSHIP, WAS TOLD OVER THE PHONE IT COULD BE CAUSED BY A DROP IN OIL PRESSURE. THAT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THEY WANTED TO JUST DO AN OIL CHANGE TO SEE IF THAT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM, BUT I INSISTED THE CHECK FUEL PROPULSION, BECAUSE IT SEEMED LIKE FUEL PUMP/INJECTORS OR FUEL LINE WAS CAUSING PROBLEM. COME TO FIND OUT IT HAS A FAULTY THROTTLE BODY. WE JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR IN APRIL 2018 AND IT ONLY HAS ABOUT 40,000 MILES ON IT. WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME TYPE OF ISSUE, SHOULD THE THROTTLE BODY BE CHECKED FOR PROBLEMS AND POSSIBLE RECALL??? I SPENT 3 HOURS ON THE SIDE OF THIS EXPRESSWAY WAITING FOR A TOW BECAUSE THE CAR WAS NOT DRIVEABLE.
