2013 DODGE DART Complaints

I OWN A 2013 DODGE DART AND HAVE SENT IN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION AND THERE STILL NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. MY CAR WILL NOT TURN OFF AND WILL NOT GO INTO PARK WITHOUT HAVING TO MESS WITH IT FOR 10 MIN OR MORE AND SOME DAYS I HAVE TO JUST LEAVE THE KEYS IN IT AND DO WHAT I GOTTA DO BECAUSE THE KEYS WONT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION WHEN THIS HAPPENS. SO NOT ONLY AM I TAKING RISK OF GETTING MY CAR STOLEN BUT WHAT IF A KID GOT IN THE CAR JUST PLAYING AND STARTED THE CAR , WHO KNOWS WHAT COULD HAPPEN THEN. I HAVE REPORTED THESE ISSUES SO SO SO MANY TIMES AND EVEN SENT IN MORE INFO WHEN NHTSA CONTACTED ME WANTING TO KNOW MORE INFO ABOUT A COMPLAINT I HAD SUBMITTED BUT STILL NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT THESE CARS EXCEPT IN CALIFORNIA AND MICHIGAN I BELIEVE AND I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY IF THERE IS CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN THOSE STATES FOR THE SAME PROBLEMS OTHERS FROM DIFFERENT STATES ARE HAVING WHY CAN THEY NOT DO A NATIONWIDE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. THESE CARS WERE ALL MANUFACTURED FROM THE SAME PLACE SO IT SHOULD NOT MATTER WHAT STATES ARE STRICTER ABOUT THE LEMON LAWS THEN OTHERS WHEN IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THAT MAKES IT SEEM LIKE CERTAIN STATES LIVES MATTER AND SOME STATES DO NOT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD I HAVE REPEATEDLY SENT IN COMPLAINTS TO SO,SO,SO MANY SAFETY SITES AND ALL VEHICLE CONSUMER PROBLEM SITES AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE. I WILL CONTINUE TO DO MY PART AND LET THEM KNOW HOW UNSAFE THESE CARS ARE AND JUST HOPE THAT SOMETHING IS DONE BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPENS THAT COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED HAD THEY JUST INVESTIGATED THE ISSUES. THE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS WITH THE VERY SAME ISSUES THAT THEY RECEIVE DAILY IS UNBELIEVABLY INSANE THAT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. *TR

THE WINDOW WIPERS WON'T STOP EVEN WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO TURN IT OFF. IT WON'T TURN OFF. THEN I REPLACED WITH A NEW WIPERS, IT WON'T STOP. THEN RAINING, THE WINDOW IS HARD TO SEE DURING THE RAINY. WHEN I TURN THE LIGHT SIGNAL ON TO TURN RIGHT; THE WIPERS TURNS ON BY ITSELF. IT'S FRUSTRATING AND SAFETY CONCERNS. IT'S GETTING WORSE. *TR

ON 3 OCCASIONS. MY CLUTCH BROKE. I HAD IT REPAIRED 2 TIMES AND CURRENTLY IT WENT OUT AGAIN. I WAS DRIVING DURING THE TIME AND LOST POWER TO MY CAR. I ALSO HAD REPLACED WITH THE DEALER MY BRAKE BOOSTER THAT WENT OUT 3 TIMES.FRUSTRATED. *TR

THE REAR BRAKES ARE LOCKED UP AND WONT RELEASE. THE FIRST TIME THE CALIPERS HAD TO BE CHANGED OUT. THIS HAPPENED WITH IN THE FIRST 3 YEARS. THIS MOST RECENT TIME THEY LOCKED UP AGAIN I HAVE NOT YET TAKEN IT IN TO THE SHOP YET BUT IT FEELS LIKE THE SAME PROBLEM AND IT HAS ONLY BEEN 3 YEARS OR SO SINCE THEY WERE LAST CHANGED. THE CAR ONLY HAS ABOUT 40 THOUSAND MILES ON IT. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM. THIS COULD CAUSE THE BRAKES TO CATCH ON FIRE OR EVEN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THIS REALLY NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

I WAS DRIVING AND I NOTICED THAT THE CAR LOOSE POWER AND GEARS INDICATORS WE'RE ALL IN RED. P,R,N,D WE'RE IN RED. I HAVE TO STOP IN A SAFETY PLACE. FIRST I TRIED STARTING AND MOVING THE GEAR SHIFT AROUND, THEN I HAVE TO TURN OFF AND ON THE CAR AND BACK TO NORMAL AGAIN. I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN MY CAR ALONE OR WITH MY FAMILY ON IT . THERE'S A LOT OF PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR I DON'T FELL SAFE ANYMORE. *TR

2013 DODGE DART LIMITED WAS MOVING, STOPPED AT LIGHT, LOST GEAR COMPLETELY. DEALERSHIP COULDN'T RECREATE. HAD EVERY TRANS RECALL AVAILABLE APRIL 2019. JANUARY 2020 CAR STARTED TO STALL AND SHIFT OUT OF GEAR AGAIN. APRIL 17 2020 BROUGHT DART IN DUE TO STALLING IN ROAD AND SAME DASH SCREEN AS RECALL, TOLD ME TO SHIFT INTO N THEN BACK INTO D OR R. CAR WOULDN'T MOVE. DEALERSHIP COULDN'T FIND CODE OR ANYTHING WRONG AND ALLOWED ME TO LEAVE WITH THE VEHICLE. GOT THE CAR HOME, WENT TO SHOW MY HUSBAND AND THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. APPARENTLY NOT INVOLVED WITH RECALL, YET I DON'T SEE HOW. SAYS SOMETHING IN TRANSMISSION SLEEVE NEEDS FIXED AND I AM LIABLE. I BEGGED THEM TO KEEP THIS CAR BC THE TRANSMISSION WAS ACTING UP, NOW HERE I AM BEING TOLD I OWE FOR AN ENTIRE TRANSMISSION WHEN I TRIED TO HAVE IT FIXED FIRST. VIN ISN'T LISTED UNDER ANY CURRENT RECALLS, YET A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH WILL SHOW QUICKLY THAT THE 6 SPEED TRANS ARE NOTHING BUT RECALL ISSUES REPEATEDLY, UNTIL IT ACTUALLY DIES.
