DODGE Complaints

VEHICLE STALLS AFTER A GAS FILL-UP. I START MY TRUCK AFTER FILLING UP AT THE PUMP. PULL OUT OF THE STATION, GO A LITTLE WAYS DOWN THE ROAD, STOP AT A STOPLIGHT. SIT AT IDLE FOR MAYBE 30 SECONDS & THE TRUCK DIES. THE TRUCK ONLY DOES THIS AFTER FILLUPS. NO CHECK ENGINE. NO CODES. LOOKS LIKE THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME THING. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING CONSTANTLY AFTER EVERY FILL UP. THE TRUCK RUNS FINE AFTERWARDS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE CHALLENGER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 30 MPH, WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE PASSENGER FRONT SEAT SLID FORWARD. TRI LAKES MOTORS DEALER OF BRANSON, MISSOURI WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THE DEALER RECOMMENDED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT TRACK BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 50,000.

AIRBAG LIGHT ON WITHOUT A CRASH AND WHILE DRIVING MY CAR HORN GOES OF WITHOUT NOTICE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 DODGE CHARGER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE PERIODICALLY FAILED TO START INTERMITTENTLY UPON TURNING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. IN ADDITION, WHILE DRIVING AROUND A CURVE ON THE ROAD, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED AND RESTARTED. THE DEALER (MARK DODGE, 3777 GERSTNER MEMORIAL BLVD, LAKE CHARLES, LA 70607, (337) 474-2640) WAS NOTIFIED, BUT SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT IN MID DECEMBER OF 2017. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR INSPECTION, DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO BE DRIVEN SINCE IT WAS SERVICED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHO ALSO SERVICED AN ELECTRICAL RECALL WITHOUT THE CONTACT KNOWING UNTIL THE REPAIR WAS COMPLETED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 128,000.

I WAS TOLD THE CLOCK SPRING WAS THE CAUSE OF THE CLICKING NOISE. WHEN THE TECH GOT INTO THE STEERING TO REPLACE THE CLOCK SPRING IT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM WAS THE STEERING COLUMN. THIS COULD BE A SAFETY PROBLEM IF THE STEERING COLUMN SHOULD LOCK UP WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY TRUCK. THE ONLY WAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND MAKE MY TRUCK SAFE AGAIN WAS TO REPLACE THE STEERING COLUMN.

TAKATA RECALLS. ON 10/05/2016 TOOK MY 2003 DODGE RAM 1500 INTO GERRY WOOD AUTO GROUP, SALISBURY, NC, TO REPLACE A RECALLED AIR BAG ALONG WITH ADDITIONAL WORK. 10/07/2026 VEHICLE WAS RETURN ED TO ME. 10/05 1017 TOOK MY VEHICLE BACK TO GERRY WOOD BECAUSE THE WARNING AIRINF AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON. A CHECK FOUND THE SQUIB CIRCUIT AND AIR BAG SHORTED. 10/09/2017 RETURNED MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THE WARNING LIGHT WAS COMING ON AND 10/10/2017 THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO ME. I WAS TOLD IF THE CONDITION CONTINUED THE SHOP WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER (ORC). I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ORC. NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE ORC UNTIL THE MECHANICS REPLACED THE AIR BAG. ANY PROBLEM WITH THE AIR BAG THAT WERE NOT A PROBLEM PRIOR TO THE MECHANICS REPLACING THE PART SHOULD BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF GERRY WOOD DEALERSHIP. PLEASE ADIVISE HUBER R. IJAMES [email protected]

DODGE DURANGO LIMITED 4X4 ENGAGES 4 WHEEL DRIVE RANDOMLY ON THE FREEWAY AT HIGH SPEEDS, WITHOUT BEING TOLD TO. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUES AND I SEE MANY PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT IT ONLINE.

RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED BUT NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE - THIS HAS BEEN IN LIMBO FOR SOME TIME NOW. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN HAVING A LOT OF TROUBLE THE PAST TWO MONTHS - STALLING, JUMPING, TROUBLE SHIFTING GEARS ON ITS OWN, SHUTTING OFF AT STOPS, HARD TO MAKE A SMOOTH TRANSITION INTO DIFFERENT SPEED LIMITS. I AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND HAVE NOT HEARD OF WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE.

BRAKE RECALL: THE BRAKES GRAB OR SLOW TO STOP CAUSING IT TO NOT STOP IN A STRAIGHT LINE OR JUMP, FLUTTER OR HESITATE TO BRAKE. ENGINE RECALL: GOT CAR 6/2017 CLINGING NOISE, AFTER 70,000 MILES, ALL OIL CHANGES 1000 MILES BEFORE ITS DUE, STARTED AFTER THE 2 OIL CHANGE. SMALL OF BURNING WIRE SMELL. (OIL CHANGE 4 DAYS GO NOW ENGINE LIGHT ON) FUEL PROPUSION SYSTEM RECALL: CAR SEEMS TO SHIFT FUNNY WHEN PUSHING GAS, STRUGGLING FOR GAS TO FLOW WHEN PUSHING THE GAS.

DRIVING TO THE GROCERY STORE ABOUT 30 MPH NEEDING TO BRAKE AND THE FRONT BRAKES WERE GONE. RIGHT FRONT CALIPER BOLT BROKE THREAD AND THE CALIPER CAME OFF THE SPINDLE, STEERING CAUSED MORE GRINDING AND THEN I THOUGHT OF THE EMERGENCY/PARKING BRAKE. I HAVE REPLACED THE SAME SPINDLE BEFORE, BUT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE NOW OR BEFORE. I CAN';T FIND A USED/NEW SPINDLE TO REPAIR IT AND IT JUST PASSED INSPECTION.
