2012 DODGE DART Complaints

AS SOON AS YOU PUT THE KEY IN AND TURN THE VEHICLE ON TO ACC THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE ALWAYS ON. SITTING STILL OR MOVING.

ROLLING UP TO A STOP SIGN AND MY CLUTCH PETAL DROPPED TO THE FLOOR AND STAYED THERE. COULD NOT PUT IT INTO GEAR.

TAKATA RECALL MY CAR HAS BEEN SAYING SERVICE TRANSMISSION AT LEAST 2 OR 3 TIMES A WEEK AND IT WILL HAPPEN AS I'M DRIVING SO IT'LL SAY SERVICE TRANSMISSION AND THEN I'LL FEEL LIKE A PULL AND AS I START PRESSING ON THE BREAK THE ENGINE WILL REV AND THEN WHEN I PARK IT AND TURN IT OFF AND TRY TURNING IT BACK ON IT WON'T TURN BACK ON FOR AT LEAST A DAY SO IT LEAVES ME STRANDED 2-3 TIMES A WEEK OR I'VE BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY AND IT'LL DO THAT AND I TRY TO KEEP GOING AND PRESS ON THE GAS AND IT WON'T WORK IT JUST REVS SO I'LL BE GOING LESS THEN SPEED LIMIT WHILE EVERYONE ELSE GOES SPEED LIMIT AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO GET IN AN ACCIDENT AT LEAST TWICE. IT'S SUPER DANGEROUS FOR ME TO DRIVE THIS CAR AROUND AND I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AND ALL THEY HAVE TOLD ME WAS IT'S A SAFETY FEATURE MY CAR HAS AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHY IT'S DOING THAT.

I AM TOLD THAT THE WIPER SWITCH IS BAD AND IT COSTS $852.00 TO REPLACE IF YOU CAN FIND ONE AND THEN DODGE WANTS $400.00 LABOR TO INSTALL THIS PART

MY 2013 DODGE DART HAS BEEN GOING THROUGH ISSUES FOR A YEAR. MY TIRES HAVE BEEN POPPING LEFT AND RIGHT BRAND NEW AND USED TIRES JUST POPPING WHILE I'M DRIVING WITH MY KIDS IN THE CAR. THE CAR NOW HAS A BCM PROBLEM AS WELL AS A SMALL GAS LEAK. I HAVE WENT THROUGH MULTIPLE DEALERSHIP THAT LOOKED OVER THE CAR AND CAN'T DETERMINE WHERE THE GAS LEAK IS COMING FROM IN WHICH MY CHECK ENGINE IS STILL ONE WHICH LEAVE ME TO NOT BE ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE INSPECTED OR REGISTERED AGAIN. THIS CAR HAS CAUSED ME AND MY FAMILY SO MUCH MONEY AND ISSUES. IT HARDLY WANTS TO DRIVE, MY KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION FOR SOME REASON AND I CAN'T TURN THE CAR OFF. THE DODGE AND RECALL PLACE TOLD ME THEY CAN NOT HELP ME BECAUSE MY VIN IS NOT RECALLED BUT I'VE BEEN HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AS EVERY OTHER 2013 DODGE DART.

IVE HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPLACE 4 TIMES STILL DOING THE SAME ISSUE. IT WILL GIVE ME A SIGNAL THAT THE GEARS ARE NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME AND THEN IT WOULD BE LIKE THE RPM DIE DOWN TO A LOWER GEAR. IT WOULD THEN REV HIGH IN 1ST GEAR NOT WANTING TO GO INTO SECOND BUT WOULD CATCH AS THE RPM GOES DOWN. 2 GEAR WOULD START UNDER THE 1000 RPM AND STRUGGLE TO GET TO THE THIRD GEAR.

CLUTCH IS STICKING IN THE 1.4L TURBO DART WHILE STATIONARY. CAR WOULDN'T START RIGHT AWAY BUT DID EVENTUALLY. HARD TO GET INTO GEAR WHILE STATIONARY. EMERGENCY BRAKE HAS FAILED AND IS NOT WORKING. AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON, ON THE DASH.

PARKING BRAKE (EMERGENCY BRAKE) CALIPER FAILURE REAR RIGHT. 33,062 MILES. WITHIN LAST WEEK OR SO HANDLE IS MUCH EASIER TO PULL UP. NOW, WHEN ENGAGED YOU FEEL LEFT SIDE OF CAR GOES UP AND RIGHT DOES NOT (LOPSIDED). YESTERDAY, I WAS DRIVING ON A LEVEL STREET AND LOUD CLUNKING NOISE CAME FROM RIGHT REAR WHEEL AREA. CALLED CHRYSLER DODGE HOTLINE TODAY AND TOLD IT WAS NOT IN THE BRAKE CALIPER RECALL. I MADE PRIOR COMPLAINTS TO DEALER THAT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WOULD POP OUT AND ROLL AND IT WAS DISMISSED THAT I WAS NOT PULLING UP BRAKE PROPERLY, BUT I WAS. CHYSLER SAW THERE WERE ONLY A FEW COMPLAINTS (46) REGARDING THE BRAKE CALIPERS FOR MY VIN SO IT IS NOT IN A RECALL.
