DODGE Complaints

2015 DODGE DART SXT WITH 2.4L AUTOAMTIC STALLS WITHIN HALF MILE OF START-UP. IT TAKES QUITE A LONG TIME FOR STARTER CRANKING FOR IT TO RESTART. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF COLD WEATHER OR WARM. 99000 MILES

TAKATA THERE ARE SEVERAL THINGS THAT I HAVE SEEN AS A RECALL ON A DODGE STRATUS AND TRIED TO REPORT IT AND WHOMEVER I BE TALKING TO IS IN DENIAL ABOUT THAT MY CAR IS SHOWING ME THE SIGNS THAT IT'S NEEDS TO BE FIXED BECAUSE IT'S A MALFUNCTION MY BALL JOINT IS BAD BECAUSE OF THE FRONT RIGHT STEERING KNUCKLE HAS MESSED IT UP AND MY GAS GAUGE IS MESSED UP WITH THE ALARM AND TEMP CONTROL IS ALSO MESSED UP

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 DODGE JOURNEY. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE IGNITION SWITCH DELAYED TO START THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 200,000.

DRIVING TO WORK ON INTERSTATE 696 DRIVING THROUGH ROYAL OAK WEST BOUND, THE ENGINE JUST SHUTS OFF, AND SHOWS ON THE DASH ENGINE TROUBLE AND ELECTRIC SYMBOL AS WELL, LUCKY I WAS IN THE LEFT LANE AND WAS ABLE TO GET OVER, BUT IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS SINCE I GOT THE CAR , DEALER STATES THEY FIXED IT 3 TIMES STILL DOING THE SAME THING. I HAVE ALL THE PAPERS WORK SINCE IT STARTED AT 5000 MILES.

RUSTED SUB-FRAME , PAPER THIN MANY COMPLAINTS LISTED ALL OVER THE WEB, DRIVING IN A LOT HIT A SPEED BUMP FRONT RIGHT TIRE CAME ALMOST ALL THE WAY OFF THE CAR. CALLED CHRYSLER THEY DONT CARE IF MY CAR COULD HAVE KILLED ME AND MY CHILD, THEY HAVE NO RECALL SO ITS MY ISSUE NOT THEIRS.

IT CONSTANTLY HONKS HORN, FLASHES LIGHTS AND LOCKS AND UNLOCKS UNATTENDED WITH OR WITHOUT KEYS IN IGNITION.ITS SO BAD RUNS BATTERY DOWN. NOTICED IT'S TRIED TO STALL WHILE DRIVING GOING AROUND CURVES OR TURNS. IT'S BEEN DIAGNOSED AS THE TIPM AND WARRANTY WON'T COVER IT. I'VE DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY DUE TO ANNOYING OTHERS AS WELL PLUS RUNNING BATTERY DOWN.THIS IS GETTING TO BE A BIGGER PROBLEM.MORE AND MORE ISSUES .IT'S DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED BY CHRYSLER!

THE RACETRACK TAIL LIGHTING IS FILLING UP WITH WATER DUE TO LEAKING SEALS. THE WATER IS SHORTING OUT THE LIGHTING SYSTEM AND CAN COMPLETELY SHORT OUT LEAVING NO CENTER BRAKE LIGHT ON THE LIFT GATE, LEAVING YOU VULNERABLE TO A REAR END COLLISION. THIS AFFECTS THE WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. DODGE IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND THE FIX IS TO HAVE THE CONSUMER PAY $1100 TO REPLACE IT EVEN THOUGH IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN.

I GET REPEATED WEATHER ALERTS FROM U-CONNECT SCREEN SYSTEM. THE ALERTS COME FROM SERIUS SATELLITE TRAVEL LINK SYSTEM. THEY POP UP AND BLOCK WHATEVER IS DISPLAYED ON THE SCREEN LIKE RADIO OR MAPS. THEY CONTINUE TO BLOCK THE SCREEN UNTIL THE DRIVER REACHES OVER TO TURN THEM OFF - DISTRACTING THEIR EYES AND HAND FROM DRIVING! NEITHER SERIUS OR DODGE ARE UNWILLING OR UNABLE TO TURN THEM OFF. DURING A RECENT WINTER STORM THIS WAS VERY HAZARDOUS BECAUSE MANY ROADS WERE CLOSED AND I COULDN'T FIND A WAY HOME BECAUSE THE ALERTS WERE SO FREQUENT THEY CONTINUOUSLY BLOCKED THE MAP APP - AS I WAS TRYING TO DRIVE HOME.

A/C EVAPORATOR COIL WENT BAD AND RELEASED THE FREON INSIDE THE VEHICLE SINCE THIS IS IN THE DASH AREA INSIDE OF THE TRUCK CAB. THE RELEASE WAS OVER TIME AND WAS JUST REPAIRED. REPLACEMENT OF THE EVAPORATOR COIL, NEW FREON, HEATER CORE (WAS SUGGESTED TO REPLACE DUE TO THE ACCESS AND EASE TO REPLACE AN ITEM THAT WOULD GO OUT NEXT MOST LIKELY) AND THE VALVE - A/C. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THERE IS NO RECALL. TOTAL COST WAS JUST UNDER $2100.

EXHAUST MANIFOLD BOLTS HAVE BROKEN OFF RIGHT SIDE OF THE ENGINE. LEFT SIDE BROKE OFF IN 2015 AND WERE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. STATEMENT OF DEFECTIVE BOLTS WAS THE REASON AND WHEN ASKED TO REPLACE BOTH SIDES OF THE ENGINE WITH THE NEW BOLTS, THE DEALERSHIP STATED THEY WERE GOOD BOLTS. DEALERSHIP DETECTED THE EXHAUST LEAK AND BROKEN BOLT ON 5/09/18.
