My 2013 Dodge Dart is subject to a shifter cable safety recall. The vehicle has been at an authorized Dodge dealership in Texas since November awaiting recall repair. The dealership has confirmed the vehicle is unsafe to drive, but the repair has been delayed for several months. No reliable transportation assistance has been provided during this extended delay. This safety recall has left me without a usable vehicle for an unreasonable amount of time.

The transmission and powertrain were inspected due to concerns about the car possibly jolting in a different direction and causing an accident. The issue has been confirmed by the dealer, and the vehicle has been inspected by both the dealer and a mechanic. The car does indeed jolt unexpectedly.

My car transmission is shot, I'm requesting a recall, my car was recalled for transmission problems immediately after on market. I don't know what was all fixed , but sure wasn't fixed. When in gear the car would sometimes loose power and then rev up and the car would jerk. I replaced everything possible, I had bought a warranty extension and was continusing getting one part after another fixed, I called to report a claim after just getting a recall for the shift cable recall repair done to have my car diagnosis done again, and my warranty was up, the car has so many new parts and I love my car, I can't drive it, needs transmission rebuilt, I kept telling the warranty insurance and they ignored it. Now I can't drive it, I'm not pleased at all, I had to continue to make payments on my car for a year and couldn't drive i The transmission should have been replaced, they are responsible for my transmission. Wouldn't go in gear, would shoot off and switch gears, rev up why driving, then would have to have towed, fixed everything but the transmission which I reported non-stop, they did nothing about it, then told me, there's nothing we can do your warranty expired today. So I am requesting a recall, the transmission was recalled right after Market I don't think they fixed it right to begin with, it's a shame to have a vehicle that just sits in the garage and collects dust. The manufacturer and warranty insurance are responsible for repairing my transmission so I can drive the car , I paid for!
