2015 DODGE DART Complaints

MY CAR HAS 34,000 MILES AND I CAN'T FILL UP AT A GAS PUMP. IT WILL FUEL FOR 2 SECONDS AND CLICK OFF. I CALLED DODGE BUT IT'S NOT LINGER UNDER THE FACTORY WARRANTY DUE TO TIME. THE CAR IS BRAND NEW AND IV NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH ANY OTHER VEHICLE. I'M NOT EVEN SURE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND FROM WHAT I'VE SEEN ONLINE NEITHER DO THE DEALERS AND I'M NOT GOING TO SPEND THOUSANDS GETTING THIS PROBLEM LOOKED AT WHEN IT BARLEY HAS ANY MILES ON IT.

BACKSEAT OF THOSE NOT WORK. I HAVE A LOT OF ELECTRICAL ISSUES. THE TRUNK OPENS EVERY TIME IT'S COLD OR RAINING BY ITSELF. WHEN I START THE CAR THE CAR JUST FLICKERS SOMETIMES IN THE ODOMETERS BOUNCE UP AND DOWN. MY CAR IS TELLING ME THAT MY PARK LIGHT IS OUT AND IT'S NOT. THESE ARE ISSUES I BROUGHT DIRECTLY TO THE DODGE LOT DEALER WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR

CONSUMPTION OF OIL. WHEN OIL IS CHANGED, I HAVE TO REPLENISH OIL AT AROUND 63-67% USEAGE ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS UNTIL NEXT OIL CHANGE. THERE WAS PREVIOUS LEAK REPAIRED..NO LEAKS BUT STILL BURNING OIL. ALSO, SOMETIMES WHEN STOPPED THEN START EXCELERATING, EXPERIENCE HESITATION AND A RATTLING OR PINGING SOUND. ALSO HAPPENS WHEN I SLOW DOWN TURNING AT CORNER THEN EXCELERATE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE I PURCHASED OVER 1 1/2 YEARS AGO.

I STARTED MY VEHICLE THIS MORNING AND IT STARTED ROUGH AND WAS SURGING. AT TAKEOFF THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING STRANGLY. SLOWED TO MAKE A UTURN, TURNED TO THE LEFT SLIGHTLY AND MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED, CAR SHUT DOWN AND WAS BARELY ABLE TO BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN. I ALMOST RAN A MAN OVER TRYING TO STOP AS I COULD NOT STEER. THE BATTERY SYMBOL POPPED UP ON THE DASH. I POPPED CAR IN PARK. REMOVED KEY. RESTARTED VEHICLE AND IT TOOK A GOOD 5-10 SECONDS BEFORE TURNING OVER. THERE WAS HESITATION UPON START. AFTER BEGINNING TO DRIVE IT SEEMED TO BE DRIVING NORMALLY..THIS SEEMS TO BE A BIT OF A TICKING TIME BOMB AND A VERY LARGE SAFETY ISSUE AND SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE ACROSS ALL MODELS

CAR HAS STALLED TWICE WHEN MAKING STOP AND BEGINNING TO TURN LEFT ON CITY STREET. WOULD NOT START FIRST TIME. RESTARTED AFTER A FEW MINUTES. CALLED AAA AND REPLACED BATTERY (IT TESTED SLIGHTLY WEAK, ALTERNATOR WAS STRONG). NEXT DAY, STALLED AGAIN TURNING LEFT ON CITY STREET. STARTED ABOUT A MINUTE LATER. *DT UPDATED 11/29/18*JB *DT*DT*JB THE CONSUMER STATED DEALER ADVISED THE ENGINE WAS KNOWN TO CONSUME OIL. THERE WAS NO KNOWN REPAIR OR RECALL. THE DEALER SUGGESTED TO CHECK THE OIL EVERY 500 MILES AND BE CHARGED A DIAGNOSTIC FEE EACH VISIT. *JS*DT

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD MY DODGE DART WITHOUT ANY INDICATION COMPLETELY DIES AND I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE WHEN IT DOES SO. WE WERE ON OUR WAY TO BRING OUR KIDS TO SCHOOL ON YADKIN ROAD IN FAYETTEVILLE NORTH CAROLINA AND ALMOST GOT HIT BY AN ONCOMING VEHICLE BECAUSE WE COULD NOT GET OUT OF THE WAY ON THIS SMALL STREET THE CAR IS A 2015 DODGE DART AND ONLY HAS 16,000 MILES ON IT AND IT WAS SERVICED BY THE DEALERSHIP FOR ALL FLUIDS

THE PARKING BRAKE KEEPS FAILING UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES. I HAD THE VEHICLE INSPECTED AT AROUND 32,000 MILES FOR A STICKING REAR BRAKE. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE RIGHT REAR CALIPER WAS DEFECTIVE. AFTER JUMPING THROUGH A FEW HOOPS, IT WAS REPAIRED. NOW AT 39,000 MILES IT'S DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN, IN ADDITION THE LEFT REAR CALIPER STARTED STICKING. ON MY 3 MILE DRIVE HOME FROM WORK RIGHT AFTER THE SYMPTOMS OF EXTENDED PARKING BRAKE HANDLE TRAVEL FOR PROPER ENGAGEMENT STARTED. I PULL IN MY DRIVEWAY AND MY REAR ROTORS ARE GLOWING. THERE WAS NO SMEL OF HOT BRAKE COMPONENTS AT ALL. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT THE PARKING BRAKE WORKS ON A STANDARD TRANSMISSION CAR, TO PREVENT ROLL SWAYS. LEAVING IT IN GEAR IS ABSOLUTELY NOT ENOUGH.

DART RECALL.....BOUGHT THE CAR AT 22500 MILES AND NOW AT 46000 THE CAR STUTTERS AND CHOKES IN THE COLD ROUGH IDLE AND KNOCKING SOUND COMING FROM ENGINE AND THE IDLE GOES UP AND DROPS AT HIGH STOPS AND WILL SHUT OFF THE CAR WHEN SLOWING DOWN KNOCK SOUND IS HEARD ONCE DRIVEN MORE THE ONCE THE KNOCKING GOES BUT THE STALL AT FAST STOPS STILL HAPPENS WHEN PURCHASED WASN'T INFORMED RECALL WAS PUT ON THE CAR OR VARIOUS OTHER DARTS

DODGE DART RECALL ....PCM IS ACTING UP NEEDS TO BE REFRESHED ENGINE IS CHOKING IN COLD WEATHER AND WILL SHUT OFF AT A SUDDEN STOP IN DANGEROUS SITUATIONS ENGINE REVS ARE COMPLETELY RANDOM BUT WILL DRIVE NORMALLY ONCE DRIVEN 4 TIMES AND ENGINE IS KEPT WARM BUT BRAKING SUDDENLY OR SWERVING AWAY SUDDENLY SHUTS OFF THE CAR
