DODGE Complaints

ENTIRE SUB FRAME IN FRONT IS ROTTED TO THE POINT VEHICLE IS NOT DRIVEABLE, DO OTHER RUSET IS VISIBLE IN FRONT. VEHICLE BEGAN TO SQUEAL WHEN DRIVING AND FRONT LEFT TIRE CLOSE TO FELL OFF

WHILE IN MOTION, WHEN YOU APPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE PEDAL WILL TRAVEL TOWARDS THE GAS PEDAL. THIS BRAKE PEDAL BUSHING SEEMS TO BE WORN OUT AND CAUSES THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLIGHTLY SLIDE FROM LEFT TO RIGHT (LIKE A PENDULUM ON A CLOCK). THE GAS AND BRAKE PEDALS ARE FAIRLY CLOSE TOGETHER AND IF YOUR FOOT IS OFF SET ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, YOUR SHOE WILL CATCH THE GAS PEDAL WHEN PRESSING DOWN ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS WILL CAUSE THE ENGINE TO SPEED UP WHILE YOU ARE TRYING TO STOP THE VEHICLE. TO REPLACE THIS BRAKE PEDAL BUSHING PART SEEMS TO BE NOT IN PRODUCTION ANY MORE AND THEREFORE NO REPLACEMENT IS AVAILABLE ACCORDING TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP. - WATERFORD, MI, USA

WHEN STARTING UP THE DEFROSTER OR THE HEATER ON THE CAR, THERE IS COLD AIR BLOWING ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE AND WARM AIR BLOWING ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. I AM NOT SURE IF THIS IS THE ACTUATOR OR ANOTHER ISSUE. I CALLED CHRYSLER A FEW YEARS AGO TO REPORT THIS AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL.

TURN SIGNAL, WINSHIELD WIPERS, AND SPEED CONTROL HAS A MIND OF THEIR OWN. HALF THE TIME NOT WORKING THE REST OF THE TIME THE WHEN SIGNALING TO TURN RIGHT THE RIGHT DONT WORK THEN WHEN SIGNALING LEFT THE RIGHT SIDE BLINKS INSTEAD OF THE LEFT. THE WINSHIELD WIPERS JUST RANDOMLY SWIPE SOMETIMES WHEN NOT EVEN CRANKED AND KEYS NOT EVEN IN THE IGNITION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 DODGE RAM 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY SHIFTED INTO FOUR-LOW, WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO LOSE FUNCTIONALITY OF VARIOUS ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS. IN ADDITION, THE FAILURE CAUSED THE BRAKES TO FAIL. THE FAILURE OCCURRED TWICE. THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE HOWEVER, THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE HOWEVER NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED DUE THE VEHICLE NOT BEING INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

LOSS OF HEADLIGHT ILLUMINATION NHTSA PRELIMINARY EVALUATION #PE10022 LOW BEAMS VERY DIM, HIGH BEAMS ONLY WORK WHEN TURN INDICATOR IS HELD IN A FORWARD LOCATION. WITHOUT HIGH BEAMS I CAN NOT DRIVE AT NIGHT, HOLDING THE HIGH BEAM ON VIA THE TURN INDICATOR CAUSES DANGEROUS DRIVING. IF DRIVING OR STATIONARY THE LOW BEAMS DO NOT WORK. WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED IN 2015, THE PROBLEM DID NOT HAPPEN UNTIL 2016, SO WE WERE NOT AWARE OF THE RECALL, AS THE RECALL WAS CONSIDERED CLOSED IN 2015.

CAR CUTS OFF WHILE IN MOTION. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT MANY OWNERS HAVE HAD. DEALERSHIPS SAY IT WAS "RELEASED TOO EARLY AND IT HAS A LOT OF BUGS IN THE SYSTEM" I HAVE HAD MY KIDS IN THE CAR EVERY TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED!!! WAS ALMOST IN A WRECK THIS TIME AT MY DAUGHTER'S SCHOOL. ALSO, CAR WILL NOT START SOMETIMES UNLESS I PUT IT IN GEAR AND "TRICK" IT. I HAVE REPLACED THE STARTER NUMEROUS TIMES THINKING THAT WAS IT....HAS CUT OFF WHEN ON THE HIGHWAY, RESIDENTIAL STREET, PARKING LOTS, IN MOTION AND STATIONARY...HAPPENS OFTEN.

VALVE STEM CORRODED AND CATASTROPHICALLY FAILED. I WAS LUCKY IT DIDN'T END UP EMBEDDED IN MY FACE.

TAKATA RECALL, THIS VEHICLE WAS TAKEN APPROXIMATELY 5 TIMES BACK TO DEALER BECAUSE AIRBAG LIGHT KEPT COMING ON 2014 THRU 2016. DEALER ALWAYS SAID NOTHING WRONG (I HAVE DOCUMENTATION FROM DEALER STATING SO. MY DAUGHTER WAS IN AN ACCIDENT NOVEMBER 7, 2017 HIT BY A TRACTOR TRAILER AIR BAGS NEVER DEPOLOYED.
