DODGE Complaints

VEHICLE STARTED HAVE HESITATION WITH STARTING. ONCE STARTED AFTER MANY ATTEMPTS, DURING ACCELERATION THE VEHICLE STILL CAN BE HESITATE IN MOVING. I RECENTLY REPLACED BATTERY WHEREAS THE ISSUE IS THE EXTERNAL FUEL PUMP RELAY WITH THE VEHICLE NOT RECEIVING PROPER AMOUNT OF VOLTAGE WHICH CURRENTLY IS 1. YOUR OTHER VEHICLES SUCH AS JEEPS WERE RECALLED BUT NOT THE DODGE VANS ESPECIALLY THIS PARTICULAR YEAR WHICH IS 201 WHEN IT SHOULD HAVE. CURRENTLY MY VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP FOR ME TO INCUR COST OF THE RELAY PACKAGE WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN UNDER SAFETY RECALL P54. PART #CBP4P541AN. UNFORTUNATELY, I CAN NOT WAIT DUE TO FAMILY NEEDS THE VAN DONE IMMEDIATELY BUT REIMBURSEMENT WILL BE NECESSARY. MANY OF YOUR VEHICLES HAVE THIS SAME PART AND ALL SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED ESPECIALLY WITH MANY MOTHERS WITH THEIR FAMILIES UTILIZING YOUR VEHICLES SO HEAVY.

VAN STALLS WHILE DRIVING, THE ENGINE COMPLETELY CUTS OUT WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE JANUARY 2020. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING, WHILE STOPPED AT A LIGHT AND AT IDLE WHEN IN PARK. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THERE IS NO WARNING, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO GET OUT OF HARMS WAY. SOMETIMES THE VAN WOULD START BACK UP AND OTHER TIMES IT REQUIRED A JUMP START. I HAVE CHANGED MY BATTERY AND STARTER, AND DO NOT HAVE ANY OTHER KEYS ON MY KEY FOB. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE TIPM ( TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE) AND THE IGNITION SWITCH. I HAVE CALLED THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AS WELL AS CHECKED SEVERAL WEBSITES TO SEE IF MY VEHICLE WAS RECALLED. IT IS NOT BASED ON MANUFACTURE DATE AND VIN. I AM AFRAID FOR MYSELF, MY FAMILY AND OTHER INNOCENT DRIVERS. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE THAT WILL CAUSE A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR FATALITY. I CANNOT SELL OR TRADE IN THIS VEHICLE KNOWING THAT IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE.

WHEN EXITING THE FREEWAY, THE POWER GAVE OUT AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. HOWEVER, THE CAR DID NOT SHUT DOWN IT WAS STILL RUNNING BUT WAS UNABLE TO STEER. THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON, HAD IT CHECKED OUT AND THERE'S ISSUES WITH THE HEADS. THERE HAS BEEN EXTENDES WARRANTIES FOR THIS ISSUE BUT VIN IS NOT INCLUDED.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN I HEARD A LOUD NOISE. I LOOKED IN MY MIRRORS AND SAW A PIECE OF MY CAR IN THE MIRROR. IT WAS THE PLASTIC PIECE OFF MY DOOR. I COULDN'T STOP BEING ON THE HIGHWAY LUCKY THAT IT DIDN'T HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, SAM LEMAN IN MORTON ILLINOIS WHERE I WAS TOLD THIS HAPPENS WITH DURANGOS, BEING BLOWED OFF. TO ME THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO OTHER VEHICLES, ESPECIALLY IF A MOTORCYCLE WAS BEHIND ME. I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH LACK OF CARE FROM THE DEALERSHIP, BUT OTHER THAN THAT, THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED FROM DODGE AS IT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT.

DODGE CHARGER SCATPACK 2018 HAS A ISSUE WITH THE RADIO WHERE IT'S CONSTANTLY PRESSING BUTTONS BECAUSE OF THE SCREEN HAVING AIR BUBBLES/ DELAMINATION. IT TURNS ON THE HEATED SEATS, HEATED STEEEING WHEEL AND MESSES WITH MY SPORTS MODE WHERE IT'S CHANGING MY STEERING FROM NORM TO SPORT. IT IS A DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO CONSTANTLY CLICK THE X BUTTON.THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT COULD CAUSE MANY ACCIDENTS.

WENT TO DRIVE THE CAR ON TUESDAY (11/24/2020) AT 11:30 CST AND THE HEAD REST RESTRAINT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT SEAT HAD DEPLOYED. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF THE VEHICLE BEING STRUCK WHILE PARKED.

1. RECENTLY 2 WEEKS BACK MY CAR DURING STARTING IT CRANKS MORE TIME AND AFTER SWITCH OFF AND SECOND ATTEMPT IT STARTS. WHEN STARTING WITH REMOTE THE ENGINE STARTS NORMAL WITH NORMAL CRANKING. BATTERY VOLTAGE EVERYTHING CHECKED ALL OK. DEALER IS TELLING MAY BE FUEL PUMP TO CHECK EVEN THEY ASK MORE MONEY. MY CONCERN IS MY FRIEND ALSO BOUGHT SAME MODEL CAR ON SAME WEEK PURCHASED AND WHEN I CHECKED WITH HIM HE ALSO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND PROBLEM CAME SAME TIME. THAT MEANS THE COMPONENT HAVE SOME MANUFACTURER DEFECT WHICH WILL RESULT IN SAFETY. MANUFACTURER SHOULD LOOK INTO THE MATTER AND RECALL FOR THE DEFECT AND FIX DUE TO SAME BATCH CAR HAVE SAME FAULT OR DEFECT. 2. MY CAR ENGINE HAVE SOME TICKING NOISE WHICH WAS NOTICED JUST AFTER FINISHED THE WARRANTY. SO WHEN CHECKED WITH DEALER HEY TOLD WARRANTY FINISHED THIS IS VALVE LIFTER ISSUE AND IT SHOULD BE CHANGED WHICH THE PRICE IS TOO HIGH AND I ASKED FOR JUST CROSSED WARRANTY KILOMETER OF 60000, IT CAME AROUND 65000 KM AND WHEN I TOLD DEALER THEY ADVISE TO CHANGE AND NOTHING CAN BE REPORTED I HAVE TO PAY FULL AND IT WIL NOT HARM YOU CAN DRIVE, NOW CAR DROVE AROUND 118000KM WITH THAT SOUND AND NOW I CAN HEAR THE SOUND IS MORE THIS ALSO SOME MANUFACTURER ISSUE WHICH DEALER DID NOT NOTIFY THE MANUFACTURER TELING JUST CHANGE THE PARTS VALVE LIFTER AND MAY BE CAMSHAFT ETC. IF THIS ISSUE US COMING JUST AFTER WARRANTY PERIOD THE COMPANY SHOULD TAKE UNTI ACCOUNT THE ISSUE AND FIND SOLUTION BY RECALLING AND FIXING THE ISSUE.

REAR SLIDING DOORS GET STUCK ON THE LOCK POSITION AND CAN'T BE OPENED (DEFECTIVE ACTUATOR). THE DEALER WILL NOT REPLACE IT. IF REAR-END CRASH OR FIRE POSSIBLE DEATH MAY OCCUR.
