2014 DODGE DART Complaints

DRIVER'S SIDE REAR WHEEL BEARING SHOT AFTER 39,000 MILES. LOUD HUMMING NOISE WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT FIRST. I DROVE ON IT FOR A COUPLE WEEKS AND THE NOISE GOT LOUDER. I JACKED THE CAR UP ONE DAY AND THE WHEEL WIGGLED A PRETTY SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT. REPLACED BOTH REAR BEARINGS IN MY DRIVEWAY AFTER CALLING THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVING THEM TELL ME THE PARTS WERE NOT GOING TO BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2014 DODGE DART 2.4 TIGERSHARK ENGINE, THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. THE BATTERY INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON ALL ELECTRONICS INSIDE THE CAR WERE STILL OPERATIVE. I HAD A WRECKER TAKE THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. DIAGNOSTIC TEST SHOWED LOST COMMUNICATION WITH THE BODY CONTROL MODULE. LOOKED AT OIL AND IT WAS LOW. I WAS TOLD BY AUTO TECHNICAN THAT THE AUTO SHUTS IT'S SELF OFF WHEN IT IS LOW ON OIL. THIS IS A VERY ALARMING SITUATION IF IT WOULD SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY IN TRAFFIC I CALLED CHRYSLER AND REPORTED THIS. THE CALL CENTER STATED THAT SHE HAD 2 PEOPLE CALL THE DAY BEFORE AND 3 ON THE DAY I CALLED WITH THE EXACT PROBLEM. SHE SAID ALL THE CARS HAD OVER 20,000 MILES ON THEM.
