2014 DODGE DART Complaints

I'M EXPERIENCING LOST OF ENGINE TORQUE WHEN SHIFTING ON FIRST GEAR DUE TO CLUTCH OPERATION COMPONENTS PARTS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. IN ONE OCCASION I WAS MAKING A RIGHT TURN INTO THE INTERSECTION, WHEN I ENGAGED FIRST GEAR AND TRY TO SHIFT TO SECOND GEAR THE CLUTCH WOULDN'T DISENGAGE OR COME BACK TO AT-REST POSITION. IT FELT LIKE AIR GOT INTO THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM MAKING A LOOSE CLUTCH LINE CONNECTION DURING THE RELEASE OF THE CLUTCH, AFTER I HIT THE PEDAL WITH MY FOOT A FEW TIMES I WAS ABLE TO MAKE THE CLUTCH PEDAL TO COME BACK TO AT-REST POSITION. THIS WAS A VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE SINCE MY KIDS WERE RIDING WITH ME.

WHILE GAINING ACCELERATION ONTO THE FREEWAY, I WAS FORCED TO MAKE A SUDDEN STOP. I HAD PLENTY OF ROOM TO STOP SAFELY AND WAS NOT TRAVELING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE CAR DID NOT STOP IN TIME TO AVOID A COLLISION WITH THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. THERE WERE NOT BRAKE MARKS ON THE ROAD AND IT FELT AS IF MY VEHICLE HIT THE ONE IN FRONT OF ME AT FULL SPEED. I BELIEVE THE BRAKES COMPLETELY FAILED ME AND THE ACCIDENT WOULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF THE BRAKES HAD DONE WHAT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO. OKLAHOMA CITY, OK INTERSTATE 40 AND MCARTHUR.

TIGER SHARK MULTI-AIR 2 ENGINE CONSUMES 1QT OIL PER 1000 MILES. I WAS UNAWARE OF THIS CONSUMPTION ISSUE AND THE OIL WENT TO LOW AND ENGINE IS DESIGNED TO SHUT OFF. THIS STALLING HAS HAPPEN 3 TIMES TO AND 1 TO THE DEALERSHIP. NONE OF THE CARS WARNING INDICATORS COME ON WHEN PRESSURE IS LOW THE CAR JUST STALLS. DEALERSHIP RESOLUTION WATCH OIL LEVEL AND THERE IS FIX FOR THE CONSUMPTION OR ANY WAY FOR THE WARNING LIGHTS TO BE TRIGGERED. SO IF I FORGET TO CHECK THE OIL I AM GAMBLING WITH MY LIFE AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD IF THE CAR STALLS WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY.

I TAKE MI CAR TO THE DEALER WEN I FIRST BUY NEW MORE THAN 15 TIMES AND THEY FOUND NOTHING AND THIS CAR IT'S CONTINUE WITH PROBLEMS IN NORMAL DAILY DRIVE. IDLE PROBLEMS IN THE ENGINE SUSPENSION NOISE TRANSMISSION SHIFTING NOT NORMAL IN DRIVE POSITION TIRES WEAR TO FAST EXHAUST SMELL FUEL TO STRONG IN ENGINE COOL TEMP ALL THIS HAPPEN IN STATIONARY AND DRIVING IN MOTION AND NORMAL DRIVE IS HAPPEN ALL THE TIME

MY 2014 DODGE DART LOSES OIL. THE OIL INDICATOR LIGHT DOES NOT WORK. HOWEVER THE OIL IS NOT LEAKING ON THE GROUND AND ONCE THERE IS NO OIL AT ALL IN THE VEHICLE, IT SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAPPENS UPON TAKING OFF. THE CAR HAS TO PUT IN NEUTRAL IN ORDER TO START.

PURCHASED THE DODGE DART RALLYE IN JULY 2014. DEC 2014 THE ENGINE BLEW BECAUSE OF OIL SLUDGE IN THE ENGINE. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE ENGINE. THE CAR WAS IN THE SHOP FOR 30+ DAYS.FEB 2014 THE CAR WOULD NOT START. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS A LOUD NOISE AND WHITE PUFF OF SMOKE CAME FROM THE ENGINE AND THE CAR STARTED. DROVE IT DIRECTLY TO THE DEALERSHIP.THEY LOOKED AT IT AND SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG IT COULD OF BEEN CONDENSATION.A MONTH LATER THE ELECTRIC INSIDE THE CAR WASN'T WORKING. I TOOK THE CAR BACK AND THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. I ALSO BROUGHT THE CAR BACK BECAUSE THE ENGINE WAS VERY LOUD AND IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO SHIFT INTO GEAR.THEY SAID THE TIRES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THAT IS WHAT WAS CAUSING THE LOUD NOISE. I REPLACED THE TIRES AND STILL HAD THE LOUD NOISE AND DIFFICULTLY SHIFTING. EACH TIME I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH THESE PROBLEMS THEY MADE ME FEEL STUPID. THEN ON THE EVENING OF NOV 29, 2015 WITH MY 3 KIDS IN THE CAR, THE TRANSMISSION BLEW UP. CLUTCH WENT TO THE FLOOR EXTREMELY LOUD NOISES, METAL PIECES SHOOTING OUT EVERYWHERE. I PULLED OVER AND SHUT THE ENGINE AND WE RAN FOR OUR LIVES. THERE WAS LIQUID ALL OVER THE ROAD. HUGE WHITE PUFF OF SMOKE COVERED THE ENTIRE BLOCK. METAL BOLTS AND PIECES EVERYWHERE. WE TOWED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEN ON TUES THE SERVICE MGR CALLED ME AND SAID IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE IT WAS CAUSED BY DRIVER ERROR. SAID I WAS DRIVING THE CAR ROUGH OR SOMEONE WAS.. I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO DRIVES MY CAR. I AM A MOTHER OF 3 IN MY 40'S AND USE MY CAR FOR CLIENTS WHEN SHOWING HOUSES. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT HE MEANS BY ROUGH DRIVING. I ASKED HIM TO EXPLAIN AND HE SAID I DON'T KNOW POPPING THE CLUTCH??? NOT KNOWING HOW TO DRIVE A MANUAL. WHICH I LEARNED ON ONE AND HAD ONE EVER SINCE. THEY REFUSE TO PAY FOR RENTAL CAR AND REFUSE TO FIX THE CAR. THE CAR ALSO HAS BODY DAMAGE FROM THE SHOOTING BOLTS.
