DODGE Complaints

BATTERY LIGHT COMES ON, ONCE THAT OCCURS THE RADIO GOES PITCH BLACK AND WE LOSE TOTAL CONTROL OVER THE RADIO AND HVAC CONTROLS. THE DASH GAUGES SHUT OFF INCLUDING TURN SIGNAL BLINKERS AND CLICKING SOUND. AND WHETHER THE A.C. IS ON OR NOT THE HEATER DEFROST COMES ON FULL BLAST AND I CAN'T GET IT TO TURN OFF. UNTIL THE REAR DEFROST AND BATTERY LIGHT IS OFF. BUT IT WILL IMMEDIATELY DO IT AGAIN. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS WHETHER THE CAR IS IN PARK, IN DRIVE BUT IDLING, WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND WHEN TURNING LEFT.

TIRE CRACKING AND TREAD SEPARATION ON TOURMAX GFT SOLD BY ELDORADO. ITS NOT IN YOUR LIST. POOR WEAR CHARACTERISTICS. I TOOK MY CAR IN TO AN ALIGNMENT SHOP BECAUSE IT WAS PULLING TOWARD THE CENTER OF THE ROAD. I WAS INFORMED THAT A NEAR NEW TIRE HAD STRESS CRACKS AND TREAD SEPARATION AND THE ALIGNMENT AND INFLATION PRESSURE WAS OK.TWO MORE OF THE SAME TIRES ON THE SAME CAR WERE WEARING UNUSUALLY FAST WITH NO ALIGNMENT ISSUES. I FEEL THESE TIRES HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE UNSAFE. THE TOURMAX GFT FROM ELDORADO HAS NOT INSTILLED SAFETY CONFIDENCE.

LOW BEAM HID HEADLIGHTS FAIL (TURN OFF COMPLETELY) WHEN ON FOR PERIOD OF TIME REGARDLESS OF IF VEHICLE IS STOPPED OR IN MOTION. THERE IS AN EXISTING RECALL, RECALL NUMBER P08 DATED 04/2014 HOWEVER MY VIN AND OTHER VEHICLES WITH HID LOW BEAM LIGHTNING WERE "NOT INCLUDED" IN THE AFFECTED VINS FOR P08.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 DODGE CHARGER. WHILE STATIONARY, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START WHEN PROMPTED. THE CONTACT CONTINUALLY INSERTED AND RE-INSERTED THE REMOTE KEY INTO THE IGNITION TO START THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, IN EXTREMELY HOT WEATHER, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. THE DEALER (HUNTER DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM, 1130 AUTO MALL DR, LANCASTER, CALIFORNIA 93534, (661) 948-8411) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 186,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 15V879000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, INTERIOR LIGHTING) AND 17V572000 (SERVICE BRAKES, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE DEALER (SWOPE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM, 1012 N DIXIE AVE, ELIZABETHTOWN, KY 42701) WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THEY COMPLETED THE REPAIR FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V572000 (SERVICE BRAKES, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC); HOWEVER, THE PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V879000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, INTERIOR LIGHTING). UPON LEAVING THE DEALER AND CONDUCTING HER OWN RESEARCH, THE CONTACT FOUND THAT THE RECALL REPAIR COULD NOT BE COMPLETED WITHIN THE 15 MINUTE TIME FRAME AFTER DROPPING OFF THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RECALL WAS STILL OPENED PER THE VIN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE 7/13/2018 AND IT IS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A BACKUP CAMERA. DODGE IS ALSO ADVERTISING THAT THIS IS STANDARD EQUIPMENT ON THE VEHICLE. THEY ALSO DID NOT DISCLOSE THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT EQUIPPED. AS FAR AS I KNOW ALL VEHICLES ARE TO BE EQUIPPED BY MAY 1, 2018. THIS WAS PURCHASED FROM PEACOCK IN BRUNSWICK, GA

WHILE DRIVING AT APPROX. 40 MILES PER HOUR, THE DRIVERS SIDE HEAD REST EXPLODED CAUSING MY HEAD TO MOVE SLAM FORWARD. I THOUGH SOMEONE HAD HIT ME FROM BEHIND BUT LOOKED AND THERE WAS NO ONE THERE. PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO FIND THE HEAD REST APART. I CONTACTED A LOCAL DEALER AND THEY ASKED IF I RAN INTO A CURB, HIT A LARGE BUMP OR WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND WAS SORRY TO HEAR THAT HAPPENED. AFTER RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET, THERE ARE SEVERAL REPORTS OF THESE HEADREST EXPLODING RANDOMLY ON SEVERAL DODGE MODELS SPECIFICALLY THE DURANGO. MY VEHICLE IS A 2014 WITH 29K MILES ON IT, NEVER IN AN ACCIDENT AND BARELY DRIVEN.

CAR WILL NOT START, ONLY CLICKS. SOUNDS COME FROM THE STEREO. THIS HAS BEEN AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM FOR ABOUT 5 YEARS (I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW IN DECEMBER 2009). I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY TWICE. THIS PROBLEM HAS GOTTEN WORSE, AS IT HAPPENED YESTERDAY AND AGAIN TODAY. IT JUMPS EASILY.

WHEN I GO TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK TO TURN IT OFF TO GET OUT OF IT, IT TELLS ME IT ISN'T IN PARK SO I HAVE TO PUT IT BACK IN DRIVE AND SLAM THE SHIFTER AS HARD AS I CAN INTO PARK TO MAKE IT GO INTO PARK AND UNLESS THE CAR IS IN PARK IT WON'T SHUT OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED A FEW DIFFERENT TIMES TO ME.

VEHICLE ARRIVED AT OUR SHOP FOR A STANDARD OIL CHANGE AND ON INSPECTION WE DISCOVERED THAT THE SUB FRAME HAD ROTTED AND THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. WE CONTACTED THE DEALER FOR THE CUSTOMER AND FOUND THAT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. THIS IS A ROAD HAZARD AND SHOULD HAVE NO EXPIRATION DATE. PHOTO IS AVAILABLE IF THERE IS AN INVESTIGATION. *TR
