DODGE Complaints

THE CAR HAS 35,095 MILES ON IT AND MAKES A GRINDING NOISE WHEN IT'S SLOWING DOWN FROM SPEEDS OF 25 MPH TO 35 MPH AND COMES TO A SHAKY STOP. THEN WHEN AT SPEEDS OF 50 MPH PLUS IT SHAKES AND GRINDES EVEN LOUDER. I SEE THAT IT'S A RESCUE RING ISSUE FOR THIS VEHICLE

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, APPROXIMATELY 40 MILES PER HOUR, THE DRIVE SHAFT BROKE OFF COMPLETELY. TOWED TO FOWLER JEEP DODGE ON I-240 IN OKLAHOMA CITY. SERVICE ADVISOR INDICATED THE HEAT SHIELD BECAME LOOSE AND CAUSED THE DRIVE SHAFT TO BREAK. THIS IS A RECALL ISSUE FOR PRIOR MODEL YEAR 2007-2008 DODGE NITRO. I CALLED BOTH CHRYSLER AND DODGE HOTLINES RELATIVE TO THE N10 RECALL WITH FAULTY HEAT SHIELDS CAUSING THE DRIVE SHAFT TO SPONTANEOUSLY BREAK. I WAS TOLD IT WAS UP TO THE DEALERSHIP AREA MANAGER TO DECIDE IF THIS ISSUE WOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE DODGE HOTLINE AGENT CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEN INFORMED ME THAT THE MECHANICAL ERROR WOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED IN THE RECALL SO THE DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT EVEN CALL THE AREA MANAGER. I HAD THE CAR TAKEN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHO ALSO SAID A FAULTY HEAT SHIELD CAME LOOSE, WAS RUBBING ON THE DRIVE SHAFT CAUSING IT TO BREAK; WHICH IS THE EXACT N10 CHRYSLER RECALL FOR 2007-2008 DODGE NITRO. AS I HAVE A MODEL YEAR 2011, OBVIOUSLY THE ISSUE HAD NOT BEEN FIXED.

THE HORN BEEPS AT RANDOM TIMES WHEN IM NOT DRIVING AND EVEN WHILE DRIVING. MY WINDOWS COME DOWN ON THEIR OWN AT RANDOM TIMES AND SOMETIMES IT WONT START.

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINTER 2015-2016 I HAD TO REPLACE MY RADIATOR DUE TO A SMALL CRACK THAT DEVELOPED. MY HEAT STARTED TO MALFUNCTION THE FOLLOWING WINTER 2016-2017 IT ONLY WORKED PART OF THE TIME. STARTING IN THE FALL OF 2017 MY HEAT WENT OUT COMPLETELY. WE TOOK IT IN TO HAVE THEM CHECK THE HEATER CORE, COME TO FIND OUT THAT SINCE THE HEATER CORE IS INSTALLED AT AN ANGLE IT DOESN'T DRAIN THE SLUDGE PROPERLY. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT MY AIR CONDITIONING WILL TURN ON AT RANDOM. I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHEN THIS STARTED, BUT IT WILL TURN ON BY ITSELF. JUST THIS MORNING 8/13/18 MY AIR TURNED ON 15 TIMES, AFTER BEING SHUT OFF EVERY TIME. I'M WONDERING IF THIS IS SOMETHING WRONG ELECTRONICALLY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION ON MY 2012 DODGE JOURNEY.
