2015 DODGE DART Complaints

PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN LATE JANUARY AND APPROX 6 MONTHS LATER WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE MOTOR WILL RANDOMLY STALL. THESE ARE INTERMITTENT EVENTS.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE WILL RANDOMLY STALL. INTERMITTENT EVENTS THAT OCCUR WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY.

ON EVENING OF FRIDAY NOVEMBER 9, 2018, THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO SLIP AND WAS VERY SLUGGISH. THE NEXT DAY NOVEMBER 10, 2018 AT 12:15 PM WHILE DRIVING ON HWY 485 IN CHARLOTTE NC AND BEFORE I COULD TAKE IT TO THE DEALER FOR A CHECK; THE CLUTCH BRAKE EXPLODED LIKE A GRENADE, SENDING SCHRAPNAL THROUGH THE TRANSMISSION. WE WERE LUCKY IT DIDN'T COME THROUGH THE CAB OR MY FAMILY WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THE TRAFFIC WAS VERY HEAVY DUE TO THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND, WE WERE ALSO LUCKY THAT WE DIDN'T GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE DRIVEN STANDARD TRANSMISSIONS ALL MY LIFE AND THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED. TO SAY THE VERY LEAST I AM UPSET THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE UNDER WARRANTEE DUE TO THE LOW MILEAGE AND SINCE I BOUGHT IT ON JAN 29, 2016, IT IS UNDER 3 YEARS. HOWEVER, I AM LOOKING AT A $3500 BILL TO REPAIR OR REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE, THE CLUTCH BRAKE SHOULD NEVER EXPLODE LIKE THAT. CHRYSLER IS SELLING WEAK MANUFACTURED PARTS TO THE PUBLIC. THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND CHECKED OR REPLACED WITH A BETTER CLUTCH BRAKE BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED.

TAKATA RECALL: THE VEHICLE LOW AIR PRESSURE LIGHT WILL CHIME WHEN MAKING A LEFT OR RIGHT TURN AND THE CAR WILL LOOSE POWER AND SHUT OFF. THE CAR WILL TAKE 5 MIN TO START UP THE ENGINE AND WHEN GOING OVER A SPEED BUMP WILL TRIGGER THE VEHICLE TO LOOSE POWER AND SHUT DOWN AS WELL.

DAUGHTER WAS REAR ENDED IN THE DODGE DART AT 50 MILES AN HR AND AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY

WHILE DRIVING AT A FAIRLY HIGH SPEED WITHIN THE SPEED LIMIT MY CLUTCH JUST DROPPED TO THE FLOOR AND THE MANUAL STICK SHIFT SHIFTED INTO GEARS ON IT'S OWN JUMPING AND NOT NEEDING THE CLUTCH TO SHIFT. LED TO TOTAL IMMOBILIZATION WITH CARS BEHIND ME, I LUCKILY MADE IT OVER TO A DIRT AREA BETWEEN THE ROAD AND A DITCH SAFELY.

VEHICLE STARTED STALLING LAST WINTER AFTER REMOTE START THOUGHT IT WAS REMOTE START ACTING UP BUT NOW IT STARTED STALLING RANDOMLY AT IDLE AND TURNING NOW IT HAS STALLED DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND SOMETIMES WILL NOT RESTART RIGHT AWAY, IT IS SCHEDULED TO HAVE AN OIL CHANGE IN 4 DAYS SO I STARTED SEARCHING WHY IT WOULD BE STALLING AND READ ABOUT EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. I JUST CHECKED MY OIL AND IT IS BARELY READING ON DIPSTICK. THIS IS BS THERE IS NO WAY IT SHOULD BE CONSUMING THIS MUCH OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW AND IT ONLY HAS 33,000 MILES ON IT.

DART RECALL I BROUGHT THE DART IN TO DO A REFLASH FOR MY CAR TO STOP THE HARSH IDLE, CHOKE AND KNOCK .ALSO THAT THE CAR SHUTS OFF FROM A ROLLING STOP TO ACCELERATION AFTER THE REFLASH 2 DAYS LATER THE CAR CONTINUES TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS SEVERAL WEEKS LATER TODAY 11/17/18 THE CAR SHUT OFF AS USUAL BUT IN A INTERSECTION HAD TO TURN ON THE CAR AND HOPE WHEN PUTTING IT IN DRIVE THE ENGINE DOESN'T SHUTOFF AGAIN IN COLD WEATHER THE VEHICLE HAS A KNOCKING GRIND SOUND AND OCCASIONALLY WILL TURN OFF IF THE IDLE DROPS LOW TO 500 AND THEN IMMEDIATELY APPLYING LITTLE GAS AND THE WARM WEATHER COMES BY OR AFTER FIRST DRIVEN THE GRINDING NOISE IS GONE BUT SAME ISSUE WHEN THE IDLE DROPS TO LOW THE ENGINE JUST DOES AND BATTERY LIGHT TURNS ON THE BATTERY IS GOOD BUT THIS ISSUE HASN'T BEEN FIXED AND WHEN I WENT THE SAID IT'S NORMAL BUT THEY DID A REFLASH

MY 2015 DODGE DART ENGINE RANDOMLY SHUTS OFF WHEN I DRIVE IT , I'VE BRUNG IT TO MULTIPLE REPAIR SHOPS AND THEY HAVE ALL SAID THAT MY CAR IS FINE NO CODES SHOWS UP ON DIAGNOSTIC. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE IF NO AUTO SHOP KNOWS WHAT'S TO DO AND IS KEEP SAYING MY ENGINE IS FINE WHEN OBVIOUSLY IT ISN'T IF IT KEEPS ON RANDOMLY SHUTTING DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET.
