DODGE Complaints

It’s been having trouble starting. It started with the air conditioning going out, then it would stall in the middle of driving there are some fuses that are burnt up. And some wires in vehicle that are burnt up. When we have trouble starting jumping the vehicle would start it but still would try to stall. Finally the vehicle started stalling on us the power steering is out and we had to pull over we thought jumping it would just kick it back on til we got home. But when we tried it wouldn’t start and where the electrical fuel is it started smoking like it was going to catch fire. And I am having to find a way to get it into shop. But for now it’s left where we got stalled out.

Sounds like a machine gun when trying to start. Have to turn key completely off to get the sound to stop. Not starting sometimes and cutting off when driving. Lost all power on a main highway including my brakes and power steering. Completely shut off. Also the back air AC doesn't work at times. Seems to not have enough power to roll down windows at times and you can only use one window at a time. Battery, alternator, and starter test fine. Replaced relays and still same problem. Throwing code for not reaching coolant temp. Replaced thermostat gasket still throwing code. No other codes or lights showing up. Heard of an ignition switch and power train recall but when I put my vin in it says there are none.

In August 2022, my 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan began having a hard time starting; the engine would not turn over. It took 2-4 times of inserting the key fob and trying to start the van. I took it to O'Rielly's where they checked the battery. It was bad, so I had it replaced. Sunday, Sept. 18, 2022, my van began having the same issue. At lunch today, I tried to start the van. It turned over, but immediately died. I took out the key fob and attempted to start the van again. It turned over. Leaving work this afternoon, I had to try 2 times to get the engine to turn over, but it immediately died. The third time it would not turn over. The fourth time, it turned over, so I pressed the gas pedal to keep it from dieing. This evening after the van had cooled down I went out to see if it would start. I tried 6 times and the engine never would turn over. There have also been multiple occasions where the van will idle low while waiting at a stoplight or for a train. I researched recalls and found that there is a P54 recall for the fuel pump relay for 2013 Dodge Grand Caravans, however my VIN is not part of the recall.

When the truck is loaded to approximately 75% - 100% GVWR and nose up on a moderate to steep incline upon releasing the brake and not depressing the accelerator immediately permitting the truck to roll back even slightly the engine will stall . Upon engine stall brake power assist is lost and brake pedal becomes very difficult to depress and is extremely difficult arrest the motion of the truck. This truck in question is equipped with a Cummins diesel engine & Asin automatic transmission.

Purchased my used 2019 Durango at the end of June 2022. Everything was fine, then after a month and a half the vehicle starts to act up. Had the "Service Electronic Stability Control" warning come on several times. "Stop/Start Unavailable, Service System" warning come on four or five times. Then, sitting at a stop light, the engine shut down and wouldn't turn on and a warning saying my "Hood Is Open" popped up. Put vehicle in Park. Tried again, same warning, third time was a charm it finally started. Took it to dealer, they say after a 'recall' fix is sent out, some of these problems (they say are related) will go away. Meanwhile, I'm paying for a vehicle that sits in my driveway while I drive one of my other vehicles. I can't drive a vehicle that may suddenly 'shut down' with my family in it. Vehicle only has 17, 900 miles on it too.

I had the V34 recall done on 1-2-2020 and now for the last 2 weeks 9-12 through 9-22-2022 my vehicle will not go into park properly. I am scared it will roll into a crash. I transport my grandchildren in this vehicle and I’m scared for their safety. Does this need another recall? I’m scared to drive this vehicle. I only have 45135 original miles on this vehicle! Is this vehicle a lemon?? I have had all recalls performed on this vehicle. Please let me know what is going to happen with this issue. Thank you in advance.

The contact owns a 2016 Dodge Charger. The contact stated that the front driver’s side door panel trim had separated from the door frame. The contact then stated that he was concerned that the separation of the door panel had started to rise towards the window, which might affect the air bag deployment in the event of a crash. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the contact was informed that the vehicle was not covered under warranty. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was advised to call the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

Truck making a whooping sound when driving and front tires wobbling and front suspension sloppy. Could be hub assembly, ball joints etc which can cause wheel to detach. All recalls for fwd and awd 2006 dodge ram 1500 but not for 4wd. My truck has every recall problem listed on the recall list for fwd and awd vehicles why weren't same recalls put out for the 4wdodels? Seatbelt won't latch, steering and front suspension a mess and electrical door locks don't work nor car alarm system

Car randomly stalls while driving. Does NOT show CHECK ENGINE light, nor have any codes been recorded as checked by dealer obd reader. 2 Dodge Dealerships unable to diagnose because of no codes. Both dealerships claim they have not heard of this problem before I appeared. I saw in online forums that other owners have been dealing with this issue since at least 2011, so it appears the manufacturer is ducking their responsibility.
