DODGE Complaints

THE PCMCIA LIGHT COMES ON THEN GOES OFF.CAR WILL SOME TIMES CHUGS AND WANTS TO SHUT OFF IN MOTION

STRONG GAS SMELL INSIDE THE CAR WHEN PARKED OR DRIVING FOGS THE WINDSHIELD LEADING TO POOR VISIBILITY GOT A DIAGNOSTIC DONE BY MEINEKE TURNS OUT IT'S DUE TO CRACKED FUEL PUMPS HAD IT REPAIRED AT A COST OF $1000 TURNS OUT THERE ARE 8 SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THE WEBSITE I BELIEVE YOUR INSTITUTION SHOULD DO A RECALL SINCE IT'S A DANGER TO THE DRIVER AND THE PUBLIC

MY VEHICLE GET STALL ONCE ON A WHILE IT TAKES A FEW TURNS TO GET IT STARTED IT IT HAPPENED THREE TIMES ALREADY

I RECENTLY HAD A RANDOM DEPLOYMENT OF MY SIDE AIRBAGS. I WAS NOT IN A COLLISION AND HAD JUST DROVE OVER A POTHOLE IN THE ROAD. ALTHOUGH NO SERIOUS INJURIES, MY FAMILY AND I HAVE NECK SORENESS AND ARE SHAKEN. IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED SPONTANEOUSLY ON A FREEWAY OR BUSY ROAD, I AM NOT SURE I WOULD BE ABLE TO SAY 'NO SERIOUS INJURIES'.

IT WON'T START YOU HAVE TO GET A BOOST JUST PUT A NEW START ALTERNATOR AND A BATTERY THE CAR IS THERE STILL HAVING PROBLEMS ARE CRANKING UP

ALL THE SUDDEN MY DASH DEFOGGER ON PASSENGER SIDE AND PASSENGER DEFOGGER ARE BLOWING COLD AIR AND DRIVERS SIDE IS WARM. GOOGLED ISSUE AND IT SEEMS TO BE A BIG THING

AS I WAS DRIVING THE HEAD REST DEPLOYED ON THE DRIVERS SIDE AND SHOVED MY HEAD FORWARD CAUSING ME TO LOSE FOCUS

CYLINDER 2 MISFIRE CULMINATED IN A DIAGNOSES OF A CHEWED CAMSHAFT. KNOWN BUT UNACKNOWLEDGED ISSUE WITH POOR LUBRICATION TO THE LIFTERS -- OWNER NORMALLY FORCED TO PAY FOR CAMSHAFT AND LIFTER REPLACEMENT.

STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS NO LONGER WORKING, HORN WILL NOT WORK AND AIR BAG LIGHT IS RANDOMLY COMING ON AND OFF. I BELIEVE THAT THE CLOCK SPRING MECHANISM IS FAULTY AND HAS CAUSED WIRING TO BECOME WORN DO TO POOR QUALITY OF PART AND INSTALLATION DURING MANUFACTURING. THIS VEHICLE IS NOT EVEN 5 YEARS OLD,SO PROBLEMS WITH MAJOR SAFETY COMPONENTS AND CONTROLS ARE THE DIRECT LACK OF QUALITY CONTROL UPON INSTALLATION. OTHER RECALLS RELATED TO SIMILAR ISSUES AND VEHICLE TYPE ARE CONSISTENT FROM MANUFACTURER. DO TO THE OVER ALL SAFETY HAZARD OF THIS FAULT I WOULD EXPECT THE MANUFACTURE TO HELP ASSIST IN REPAIR TO AVOID POSSIBLE INJURIES AND LAW SUITS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND HOPEFULLY RESOLUTION TO A SERIOUS ISSUE!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 DODGE INTREPID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 30 MPH, THE AIR BAGS WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AS WELL AS THE HORN FAILED WHEN DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH THE CRUISE CONTROL FAILED TO ENGAGE AS HE HAD TO INCREASE HIS SPEED TO AVOID BEING REAR-ENDED.
