DODGE Complaints

TAKATA RECALL HAVE RECEIVED NOTICE THAT MY CAR HAS DEFECT AIR BAG INFLATORS.HAVE CALLED MY DEALER 2 TIMES AN SAY THAT THE MAKER HAS NOT PUT ANY INFOR FOR THEM TO FIX..HOW DO I MAKE MAKERS DO THIS SO THEY CAN FIX MY CAR

VEHICLE STOPPED RUNNING WHILE DRIVING. GOT THE VAN OFF THE ROAD AND WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO RUN AGAIN. VAN SPIT AND SPUTTERED FOR ABOUT A MINUTE OR TWO AND THEN DROVE FINE TO GET IT HOME, ABOUT TWO MILES. ONCE HOME CUT OFF AND STARTED WITH NO PROBLEMS. SAT OVER NIGHT AND THEN WOULD NOT START. ENGINE TURNED OVER BUT WOULD NOT RUN. CHECKED THE FUEL PUMP AND IT WAS NOT GETTING POWER. APPLIED POWER TO THE FUSE AND IT RAN. REMOVE POWER FROM THE FUSE, AND IT CUT OFF. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE TO HAVE IT HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY. IF THIS WOULD HAVE CUT OFF ON THE INTERSTATE IN THE FAST LANE, IT COULD HAVE BEEN VERY BAD NEWS.

MY CAR'S ENGINE STALLS WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING. I HAD PROBLEMS WITH THIS WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR WITHIN THE SAME WEEK FROM A USED CAR DEALER. IT NOW AFFECTS MY HEADLIGHTS BY MAKING THEM FLASH ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP FOR THE PAST YEAR AND NO ONE CAN SEEM TO FIND THE ISSUE. THERE IS A PAST TIME DEVICE INSTALLED WHICH INTERFERED WITH THE SECURITY SYSTEM. THE DEALERSHIP TOOK OUT THE SECURITY SYSTEM AND SHORTLY THEREAFTER THE ENGINE STALLS BEGAN. ENGINE STALLS OCCUR WHILE DRIVING OR STOPPED AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS. IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY BUT NOT OFTEN. THE HEADLIGHTS HAPPEN EVERYDAY AND IS GETTING WORSE. THE VEHICLE IS BECOMING UNDRIVABLE BUT NO SERVICE TECH CAN FIND THE ISSUE.

MY HORN STARTED GOING OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF NIGHT,CONSTANTLY. IT EVEN GOES OFF WHILE DRIVING. THEN MY LOCKS DON'T PULL DOWN SO ANYONE CAN OPEN MY DOORS AND NO ALARM SINCE I HAD TO DISCONNECT MY HORN. I'VE SEEN MANY YOUTUBE VIDEOS OF OTHER VEHICLE OWNERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND DODGE WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THIS ISSUE. VERY DANGEROUS TO NOT HAVE A HORN ESP. DRIVING IN NY. DON'T EVER BUY DODGE/JEEP/CHRYSLER..HORRIBLE COMPANY.

I WAS IN MY CAR I HAD JUST PULLED INTO THE DRIVEWAY WHICH IS ON AN INCLINE, MY CAR WAS IN DRIVE MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE WHEN YOUR FOOT COMES OFF OF THE BREAK AND YOU ARE IN DRIVE MY CAR WILL ROLL BACKWARDS IT IS DESIGNED THAT WAY. ON THIS PARTICULAR DAY MY CAR ROLLED FORWARD I NOTICED IT WAS ROLLING FORWARD AND I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AS I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND WAS STEPPING ON THE BRAKE THE CAR MADE A HIGH PITCHED NOISE AND THEN THE RPMS REVVED UP AND UP AND THE CAR ACCELERATED FORWARD AS IF I WAS PUSHING ON THE GAS AND IN DRIVE. THE CAR WOULD NOT LET ME GET IT OUT OF PARK AND IT KEPT GOING FORWARD ACCELERATING INTO THE HOUSE AND GARAGE OVER AND OVER. I HAD TO SLAM THE GEAR SHIFT AND HIT IT OVER AND OVER FROM PARK DOWN INTO REVERSE WHICH FINALLY HAPPENED AND THEN I WAS ABLE TO GO BACKWARDS AND STOP HITTING THE GARAGE. I TURN THE CAR OFF PUT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON AND GOT OUT OF THE CAR TO SEE THE DAMAGE. PICTURES ARE BELOW I HAVE SEEN OTHER FORUMS AND COMPLAINTS THAT THIS VEHICLE YEAR AND MAKE HAVE DONE THIS ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. IF MY LITTLE GIRLS WERE IN THE CAR AND THIS HAPPENED AT A INTERSECTION, WE WOULD HAVE BEEN THROWN INTO ONGOING TRAFFIC SERIOUSLY INJURED IF NOT KILLED!! THIS IS A KNOWN VEHICLE FAILURE WHICH HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN CARE OF WITH PROPER RECALL PRECAUTIONS. THIS IS A DANGEROUS AND LIFE-THREATENING PROBLEM. MY LIFE MATTERS AND SO DO MY CHILDRENS. FAILURE TO ACT IS MURDER.
