DODGE Complaints

WHILE DRIVING HORN, WIPERS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS TURN ON AND REMAIN ON EVEN WHEN I TURN OFF CAR. DISCONNECTING BATTERY IS ONLY WAY TO GET IT TO STOP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE CHALLENGER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED AN INTERIM NOTICE AND A SECOND RECALL NOTICE CONCERNING NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V435000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE DEALER (KLEMENT CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM, 500 US-287, DECATUR, TX 76234, (940) 627-6700) WAS CONTACTED MONTHS AGO AND WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHEN THE MANUFACTURER WOULD PROVIDE THE REMEDY AND REPAIR PARTS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED TO DETERMINE WHEN THE REMEDY AND REPAIR PART WOULD BE SUPPLIED TO THE DEALER. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

I SEND A COMPLAIN ABOUT MY AIR BAG RECALL FOR MY DODGE TRUCK 1500 AND I RECEIVED A LETTER EXPALINING TO ME THAT I HAVE TO CONTAC THE DODGE DEALER,I DID FEW TIMES AND THEY SAID WE DON'T HAVE ANY MORE AIR BAGAS YOU CAN CONTINUE DRIVING YOUR TRUCK LIKE THAT. AND I SAID WHAT ABOUT MY SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND ME ??? I NEED TO REPLACED THIS AIR BAG BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPEN TO ME PLEASE CONTANC ME I TRY TO CALL BUT NOBODY ANSWER ME IM VERY WORRIED.THE DEALER LOOKS LIKE THEY ARE NOT WORRIED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BUT IM . WHAT CAN I DO NEXT. ???

I GOT A TAKATA NOTICE IN THE MAIL SAYING I'M A REGISTERED OWNER OF ONE OF THEIR VEHICLES WITH THE TAKATA AIRBAG AND MY AIRBAG ALERT IS RED ON MY DASHBOARD BUT THERE'S BEEN NO RECALL. PLEASE INVESTIGATE WHETHER THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL.

ON THE FIRST DRIVE OF THE DAY WITHIN THE FIRST MILE THE CAR SHUTS OFF. THE STARTER GRINDS WHEN TRYING TO RESTART AND AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES WILL TURNOVER AND THEN DRIVES FINE. HAS OCCURRED SIX TIMES MOST RECENTLY SAT 11-4 AFTER TURNING LEFT ON A LEVEL SURFACE THE CAR SHUT DOWN AND COASTED TO A STOP. TOOK THREE TRIES TO RESTART AND THEN DROVE FINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 DODGE DURANGO. WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL SET FOR 68 MPH, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY AN ADDITIONAL 20 MPH WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE CAUSED HER TO BE PULLED OVER BY THE POLICE. IN ADDITION, WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL CLUNK SOUND. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 299,000.

WHEN HITTING A BUMP OR DIP IN THE ROAD AT 65 MPH OR HIGHER THE STEERING WHEEL BEGINS SHAKING VIOLENTLY. I'M TOLD IT IS REFERRED TO AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE".

THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. *TT UPDATED 8/7/18*JB

I TOOK MY CAR IN TO HAVE A RECALL FIXED ON MY CAR. WHEN I GOT MY CSR BACK I LOOKED OVER THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND LINES AND THE ONLY THING THAT WAS CHANGED WAS THE SUPPLY HOSE. AFTER OIL HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY FOUND. YOU CAN SEE THE OIL STILL SOAKED IN PLACES. THE TECH PUT ON THE INVOICE THAT SHE CHANGED THE BOOSTER BUT YET THE BOOSTER WAS UNTOUCHED WITH FACTORY PAINT MARKS STILL IN TACKED. I LEFT MY CAR THERE AND WENT IN THE NEXT DAY TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE AND THEY TRIED SAYING IT WAS A MISUNDERSTANDING. I DONT SEE HOW SAYING YOU CHANGED A PART WHEN YOU DIDN'T IS A MISUNDERSTANDING. MI WAS COMPENSATED A FREE DETAIL THAT NEVER EXPIRES IN ORDER FOR MY BOYFRIEND TO TAKE DOWN HIS BAD REVIEW. SO THEY KEEP THE CSR ANOTHER NIGHT AND WHEN I GO TO PICK UP MY CAR I WANTED TO CHECK IT ALONG WITH A MECHANIC FROM A DIFFERENT BUSINESS. AT THIS TIME MY HOOD WILL NOT CLOSE DUE TO A BENT OR SNAPPED HOOD CABLE. THE TECH DID NOT DROP THE TRANSMISSION AND FORCED THE BOOSFER IN AND BOUND UP MY HOOD CABLE IN THE PROCESS. THE PUMP AND MASTER CYLINDER HACE STILL YET TO BE REPLACED AS THE R63 RECALL REQUIRES IF ENGINE OIL IS FOUND. WHAT MAKES ME FEEL UNSAFE AMD LIKE THEY WERE TRYING TO PKAY WITH MY LIFE AND SAFETY OF MY FAMILY IS THEY NEVER TESTED THE PARTS AFTER THEY INSTALLED THEM. THEY LIED ON BOTH INVOICES. EACH ONE SAYS THE CAR CAME IN AT 77491 MILES AND LEFT AT 77493 MILES AND I NEVERDROVE TGE CAR OFF THE LOT OR IN BECAUSE I DIDNT KNOW IF THE BRAKES WORKED. HOW CAN A CAR HAVE THE SAME MILES ON 2 DIFFERENT MAINTENANCE APPOINTMENTS IF THE PARTS WERE TESTED AFTER INSTALLATION? MY ODOMETER READ 77491. SAME AS WHEN I FIRST DROPED IT OFF ALMOST A WEEK AGO. SO EITHER THEY TURNED BACK A DIGITAL ODOMETER OR THEY NEVER TESTED THE PARTS THEY FORCED IN. I DONT KNOW IF THEY DAMAGED ANYTHING ELSE BY FORCING THE BOOSTE BUT I DOMT LIKE THE IDEA OF OTHERS PUTTING MY LIFR IN DANGER.

VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY AND RANDOMLY SHUTS OFF AT SPEED OR STATIONARY. HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES AT BUSY INTERSECTIONS AND ON HIGHWAY. POWER STEERING AND BRAKING POWER IS LOST.
