| Description |
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain model year 2016 Dodge Dart vehicles manufactured July 25, 2015, to December 16, 2015 and equipped with a 2.0L engine and a manual transmission. Additionally included are certain 2015 Dodge Dart vehicles similarly equipped and brought in for dealer service between September 15, 2015 and January 12, 2016. In the affected vehicles, the powertrain control module that monitors the engine torque output may be missing a backup layer of software. |

Without a backup layer of software, the control module may fail to prevent an un-commanded torque event, increasing the risk of a crash. |

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will update the Engine Control Module software, free of charge. The recall began on March 25, 2016. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is S10. |

Yes, I have a Dart rallye aero... my usband purchased for me in december 2014. I must say the car has some sort electrical problems. The instrument panel goes on and off randomly, the AC will be in the on position but isnt actually 'on' and blowing; when i choose MAX AC it's delayed for 45- 60 secs and the just blasts the air all of a sudden; the TPMS shows a false read VERY OFTEN! So, now i just check the tire pressure every morning. The gas fueling port is only secured with 1--YES ONE-1 little plastic pin! it moves in and out when i 'm filling the tank; these issues may seem petty, but to s widow with small children ;it's very serious and very real. it's a pain, but for these reasons i will be trading it within the next 30 days.
