2013 Dodge Dart Complaint Log

I PURCHASED MY DODGE DART AT 21,000 MILES. 30,000 MILES CAR SHUTS OFF ON HIGHWAY. TOTAL POWER LOSS. DODGE WAS ABLE TO LIMIT THE PROBLEM HOWEVER RAN ROUGH AND AT ABOUT 45000 MILES CAR SHIFTED HARD NOW AT 70000 DODGE TELLS ME IT'S THE TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY. 3,000 DOLLAR REPAIR. AT THIS POINT CAR IS NOT WORTH 3000. STILL SHUTS OFF COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING. TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE IS RECALLED FOR THE 2013 DART HOWEVER NOT MY VIN# ????? I SEE TONS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUES EVEN CASES AGAINST DODGE FOR THIS MODEL. HOWEVER THEY ARE UNWILLING TO HELP ME OUT WITH ANY ISSUES I BRING TO THEIR ATTENTION. UNFORTUNATE. FOR ME.

MY DODGE DART IT KEEP CLICKING WHILE PARKED IN ENGINE OFF!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE DART. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V800000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

MY TRANSMISSION LIGHT HAS CAME ON INTERMITTENTLY AND I HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR TWO MONTHS. MILAGE IS AT 24,000 AND ALREADY TRANMISSION ISSUES. I TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP AT THAT TIME THE LIGHT WAS OFF THEY TOLD ME NOT TO WORRY AND THAT IT WILL TAKE 6 WEEKS FOR THEM TO LOOK AT THE ISSUE. I AM VERY CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY. ALSO I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND IT WOULD NOT TURN ON I WAITED 7 MINUTES AND IT TURNED ON BUT THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT WAS ON.

I HAVE REPLACED THE HI/LO BEAM HEADLAMPS MULTIPLE TIMES, WHEN I WENT TO CHANGE IT THIS TIME, THE RECEIVER PLUG HOUSING ON THE WIRE HARNESS IS MELTED TO THE POINT THAT IT WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED, UNABLE TO ATTACH THE NEW BULB AND THE OLD BULB WAS NEARLY FUSED DUE TO THE HEAT WHEN IT MELTED, LUCKILY IT DID NOT CATCH ON FIRE

AT 40,000 MILES AFTER 3 YRS 5 MONTHS THE CAR HAD A STRONG FUEL ODOR. I REALIZED THE GAS IS LEAKING FROM THE TOP OF THE FUEL PUMP. IT TURNED OUT THE PLASTIC HOUSE OF THE FUEL PUMP WAS BROKEN AT THE CONNECTOR AND THE GAS WAS LEAKING WHILE THE SYSTEM WAS UNDER PRESSURE. WHICH MEANS WHENEVER THE CAR IS RUNNING AND THE IGNITION IS ON, THE FUEL IS LEAKING. THE SYSTEM PRESSURE IS 58 PSI (+- 5 PSI) SO YOU CAN LOSE A LOTS OF FUEL IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. ON THE ATTACHED PICTURE THE 2 STRAIGHT LINE IS NOT A CRACK. IT IS THE FUEL COMING OUT WITH A HIGH PRESSURE. DEFECTIVE PART NUMBER: 68084383AD (DODGE) REPLACEMENT PART NUMBER: 68166589AC (DODGE) MY CAR HAS NEVER HAD ANY ACCIDENT NOR A FENDER BENDER. IT IS IMMACULATE. DODGE SHOULD EVALUATE THE FREQUENCY OF THIS PROBLEM AND ANNOUNCE A RECALL. I CONSIDER THIS AS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY AND FIRE HAZARD.

TAKATA RECALL - ON 8/9/2016 I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM A USED CAR DEALERSHIP. THE GEAR SHIFT/CLUTCH SKIPS, STICKS, AND JUMPS, WHENEVER I MOVE IT FROM PARK TO REVERSE OR DRIVE. THIS HAPPENS CONSISTENTLY. ALSO, THE CAR WAS SOLD TO ME WITH A DRY CABLE BRAKE WIRE, WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO MAKE A VERY LOUD NOISE. I REPORTED THESE ISSUES TO THE DEALER THAT I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM, THEY LUBRICATED THE BRAKE CABLE WIRE, HOWEVER, THEY SAID THAT THIS IS NORMAL FOR DUAL CLUTCHES TO DO THIS - SKIP, JUMP, AND STICK. ALSO, THE VEHICLE HESITATES TO ACCELERATE, AND THE DEALER THAT I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE COME SAID THIS IS NORMAL. THIS CAR HAD LOW MILEAGE ON IT AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE (38,013), I HAVE FILED A CLAIM AGAINST DODGE, BECAUSE I THINK THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. ALSO, I DISCOVERED THAT THE PREVIOUS OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE HAD EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS PROBLEMS SINCE THE TIME THAT HE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE, WHICH THE VEHICLE HAD 0 MILES ON IT AT THAT TIME, AND EVEN HE FILED A CLAIM AGAINST DODGE FOR THE VERY SAME PROBLEMS, PLUS FOR OTHER COMPONENT FAILURES SINCE THE DAY THAT HE PURCHASED IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2013 DODGE DART. WHILE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE PROCEEDED THROUGH AN INTERSECTION DUE TO BRAKE FAILURE. AS A RESULT, A VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE FAILURE WAS NOT DUE TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V800000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,509.

MY AIR BAG LIGHT IS STAYING ON SAYING SERVICE AIR BAG SYSTEM. ALSO WHEN SOMEONE IS IN THE PASSANGER SEAT THE SEATBELT LIGHT IS STAYING ON WHILE THEY'RE WEARING THE SEATBELT. BOTH LIGHTS STARTED COMING ON AT THE SAME TIME. IT STARTED HAPPENING WHEN MY VEHICLE WAS ON AND IN PARK.

MY 2013 1.4L TURBO DART WAS IN SERVICE WITHIN THE LAST 2 WEEKS. WAS INFORMED THAT MY SLAVE CYLINDER, MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND WAS UNDER RECALL. ENDED UP IN AN ACCIDENT ON THE FREEWAY BECAUSE MY ABS FAILED AND MY CAR SLID. I WAS INFORMED THAT IT DOES HAVE TO DO WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER. WAS TOLD BY DODGE PARTS WERE ON ORDER, I CALL AND THEY HAVE NO RECORD AND THAT THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE. WHEN IT WAS INSPECTED WAS INFORMED THE THREE ABOVE PARTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THEY SAID IT WAS ALL RECALL PARTS. OF COURSE NO FORMS OR DOCUMENTATION WAS GIVEN AT THE APPOINTMENT.

I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT ISSUES WITH MY 2013 DODGE DART LIMITED. I PURCHASED IT WITH 36,900 MILES ON IT BACK IN JULY OF 2016. HERE WE ARE IN JULY OF 2020 AND THE CAR DOES NOT EVEN HAVE 67,000 MILES ON IT. MY PROBLEM LISTED WAS CREATED ONLY ROUGHLY A WEEK AFTER PURCHASING. THE ENTIRE UCONNECT SYSTEM MAKES MY VEHICLE UNABLE TO OPERATE SAFELY. WHETHER IT'S THE SCREEN GOING BLACK WHERE I CAN NOT CONTROL/CHANGE ANYTHING. THE TOUCH SCREEN IS EVERYTHING VOLUME, HVAC, BLUETOOTH, 'SUPPOSED TO WORK WITH REMOTE START. I HAVE HAD MY CODES CHECKED; CYLINDER 1 MODULE MISFIRE. AFTER DOING RESEARCH AND MY VEHICLE BEING STUCK UNABLE TO DRIVE BECAUSE IT SIMPLY WOULD NOT START(ACTED LIKE IT WOULD BUT WOULD NOT.) FOR THE ENTIRE WINTER OF 2018. COME SUMMER OF 2019 THE AIR WAS STILL HORRIBLEBUT MY INFANT WAS NOW IN THE VEHICLE. SEEING A POOR NEWBORN HAVE SWEAT ROLLING OFF HIS FACE ON A WAY TO A DOCTORS APPOINTMENT PROBABLY IS WHAT DONE ME IN THE MOST. THIS VEHICLE HAS SOME COOL UCONNECT BELLS AND WHISTLES BUT IT IS LIKE THEY ATTEMPTED TO PUT SOMETHING IN A VEHICLE THAT WAS NOT CAPABLE OF HANDLING ALL THE ADVANCEMENTS. I HAVE HAD MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES.I'VE REPLACED PARTS WITHIN THE HVAC TWICE! NOW MY ODOMETER IS BLINKING; RED FLAG.I AM SERIOUSLY SCARED TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. IT SITS FOR MOST OF THE TIME.IN THE LASR 2 YEARS I'VE MAYBE DRIVEN IT A TOTAL OF 5,000 IF THAT! I HAVE MY CAR ALMOST COMPLETELY PAID OFF AND HAVE NOT EVEN BEEN ABLE TO PUT OVER 31,000 MILES ON IT IN 4 FOUR YEARS!HOW ABSURD AND RIDICULOUS! THE DEALERSHIP ALWAYS WANT TO RUN A DIAGNOSTIC EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE MENTIONED THE ISSUES EACH TIME I'VE PAID FOR THEM PREVIOUSLY. THEY JUST HAVE 'QUICK FIX' AS THE GENTLEMAN TOLD ME FOR THIS. I AM A SINGLE MOTHER GOING TO COLLEGE THAT CANNOT FINANCIALLY AFFORD ALL THIS! THE CAR RANDOMLY AFTER BEING SHUT DOWN WILL NOT RESTART. BEEN STUCK FOR A COUPLE MONTHS NOW IN THE GARAGE.

EACH DEALERSHIP THAT I CONTACT TO TRY AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO FIX THE RECALL PROBLEM THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PART FOR IT AND I THINK THAT THEY SHOULD ORDER THE PART AND CALL ME WHEN IT COMES IN. I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR ALMOST A YEAR.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON ANYTIME THE OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE IS ABOVE AROUND 85 DEGREES. THE DODGE DEALERSHIP SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG, BUT THE LIGHT STILL COMES ON. MY CAR WAS IN THE SHOP MULTIPLE TIMES FOR ISSUES WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED 2-3 TIMES SINCE 2013. INTERIOR LIGHTS SOMETIMES FLICKER. THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM RESETS ITSELF RANDOMLY AND NOW IT CAN'T "FIND" THE MAPS. THEY ARE JUST GONE SOMEHOW. THE SD CARD SLOT WORKS SOMETIMES AND NOT OTHERS, SAME WITH THE BACKUP CAMERA. DODGE HAS BEEN COMPLETELY UNABLE TO FIX THESE.

"DODE DART RECALL" I RECEIVED A POSTAGE A FEW MONTHS AGO ABOUT A RECALL FOR MY DART, EVERYTIME I HAVE TRIED TO CONTACT ALLSTAR ABOUT THE RECALL THEY HAVE INFORMED ME THAT THE PARTS HAVE YET TO ARRIVE., I HAVE HAD MY CAR A YEAR AND A HALF. CURRENTLY EVERYTIME I START MY CAR IT IS SAYING SERVICE TRANSMISSION ON THE DASH. ON SEVERAL OCASSIONS THE CAR HAS AUTOMATICALLY WENT INTO THE NEURAL SHIFT, WHILE DRIVING CAUSING ME TO COMPLETLY STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC!!!!!I HAVE ALMOST BEEN INTO ABOUT 4 ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THE GLITCH WITH MY TRANSMISSION, THE AIR ALSO WILL WORK AND BLOW OUT HOT AIR ON ONE SIDE. EVERYTIME I STOP AT A STOP SIGN THE CAR STRUGGLES TO PULL OFF CAUSING MY CAR TO JERK TREMENDOUSLY I AM DESTINED TO GET THIS ISSUED RESOLVED . ALLSTAR STILL HAVE NOT CONTACTED ME BACK ABOUT THE RECALL, I NEED MY CAR FIXED ASAP.

**TAKATA RECALL**I HAD THE CLUTCH REPLACED MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED AUTO WITHIN WARRANTY. CLUTCH SLIPPED COUPLE OF TIMES LAST MONTH AND NOW IT STUCK TO FLOOR AND THERE WAS A LEAK IN THE AREA OF TRANSMISSION AND CLUTCH. MY BROTHER IN LAW AND SON WORK ON CARS AND ADVISED MY TO LET DEALER KNOW. I DID SCHEDULE AN APPT WITH DEALER PRIOR TO CAR FINALLY DID NOT MOVE. WHEN I DID TOW IT TO DEALER THEY ADVISED IT WAS DUE TO MY OVER RIDING OF CLUTCH. I HAVE HAD STANDARD CLUTCH AUTOS ALL MY LIFE AND I KNOW HOW TO DRIVE THEM. I CALLED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE, THEY CALLED DEALER AND WAS ADVISED NOW MY MILES IS OVER THE WARRANTY WHICH EXPIRES 11/8/2018 FOR X62 HYDRAULIC CLUTCH. SO, MY ISSUE IS, I DID NOT OVER RIDE MY CLUTCH AND WHAT DOES WARRANTY HAVE TO DO WITH MY CLUTCH ISSUED FOR THE 2ND TIME THIS HAPPENING. I HAVE HAD MY DODGE DART FOR ALMOST 3 YEARS COME THIS NOVEMBER. MY AUTO IS STILL WITH BUD CLARY DOGDE IN AURBURN, WA AND THEY ADVISED I NEED TO PAY THE DIAGNOSTICS TEST OF $136.88. FOR SAFETY, I WOULD LIKE TO THEM REPLACE CLUTCH OR BUY THE CAR BACK TO I COULD PURCHASE A CAR THAT IS SAFE. I DO NOT WANT TO PAY FOR A CAR THAT UNSAFE FOR MYSELF, PASSENGERS AND THOSE AROUND ME. CAR STOPPED AT TRAFFIC LIGHT AND WE PUSHED TO NEARBY GAS STATION . **MY CASE IS UNDER INVESTIGATION WITH CHYRSLER AND STILL AWAITING RESULTS....**CASE# 2990499**..HELP!!!!

AT TIMES THE CAR WILL NOT START BACK UP UNTIL YOU WAIT ABOUT 10 MINUTES AND EVERYTHING HAS TO BE OFF FOR IT TO DO SO. NEWEST PROBLEM IS IT SUDDENLY SLAMS ON BRAKES WHILE ALREADY STOPPED, THE CONTROL PANEL'S LIGHTS COME ON, IT WON'T GO INTO SECOND GEAR SOMETIMES PROBLEMS WITH THIRD GEAR. IN ORDER TO FIX THIS YOU HAVE TO KEEP TURNING THE CAR OFF AND WAITING ABOUT 7 MINUTES FOR THE COMPUTER TO RESET ITSELF THEN IT'S GOOD UNTIL MAYBE NEXT DAY.

I STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH MY DART 2 YEARS AFTER I BOUGHT IT, TCM LOST COMMUNICATION WHILE TRAVELING 70+ MPH DOWN HIGHWAY HAD TO TOW CAR. HAD TCM FLASHED(REPAIR 1), DROVE 2-3K MILE MORE, HAPPENED AGAIN, BROUGHT IT TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP SAID THEY REPLACED TCM (REPAIR 2, BEFORE TCM RECALL WAS ISSUED.) ABOUT 10K MILES LATER HAD TO BRING IT BACK, HAD TCM FLASHED AGAIN (REPAIR 3), ABOUT 10K MILES LATER TCM HAS PROBLEM AGAIN WHILE TRAVELING 40+ MILES DOWN A VERY BUSY CITY STREET AND NEED TO TOW VEHICLE, THIS NEW DEALERSHIP REPLACED TCM AGAIN (REPAIR 4 AFTER TCM RECALL IS ISSUED, 4K MILES LATER CAR IS NOW THROWING CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS FOR BCM, AND PCM WHICH I AM TOLD IS CONNECTED TO THE TCM. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF FILING A LEMON LAW CLAIM AGAINST CHRYSLER, A THREE YEAR OLD CAR THAT I PAID ALMOST $30,000 SHOULD NOT CAUSE SO MUCH STRESS. I CANNOT ALLOW MY FAMILY TO BE IN DANGER, I HAVE BEEN LUCKY THAT NEITHER ISSUE RESULTED IN A CAR ACCIDENT. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO BUY MY VEHICLE BACK. I DO NOT WISH TO TALK TO THEM ABOUT SERVICING THE VEHICLE AGAIN, OR TRADING THEM FOR A NEWER VEHICLE AS THEY HAVE LOST MY TRUST AS A COMPANY.

MY KEY FOB GETS STUCK INSIDE THE IGNITION. I HAVE REPORTED THE ISSUE TO DODGE IN JULY. THEY CLAIMED NOTHING WAS WRONG. WHEN I TOLD THEM I HAD TO KEEP TURNING MY WHEEL TO GET MY KEY TO RELEASE AND MY DAD CAME UP THERE AND LET THEM KNOW HE SAW IT WITH HIS OWN EYES AND WASN'T GOING TO ACCEPT THAT, THEY REEXAMINED THE CAR AND SAID THEY FOUND A BUR IN THE IGNITION BLOCKING THE KEY FROM RELEASING THE KEY. THEY KEPT MY CAR 5 DAYS TO ORDER A NEW IGNITION CYLINDER, SO THEY CLAIM WOULD RESOLVE THE ISSUE. LESS THAN A MONTH, I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I PHONED THE SERVICE MANAGER, HE TOLD ME TO PUT SHIFT THE CAR GEARS AND IT SHOULD RELEASE THE KEY. IT DID ON 8/13/16. HE SAID IT SOUNDS LIKE THE ELECTRICAL ISN'T RECOGNIZING THE CAR IS IN PARK. BUT I THOUGHT THE NEW IGNITION CYLINDER TOOK CARE OF THE PROBLEM BACK IN JULY I TOLD HIM. HE SAID IT COULD BE A STENOID PROBLEM BUT WON'T KNOW UNTIL I BRING THE CAR BACK. I DON'T HAVE MONEY TO KEEP SPENDING ON CAR RENTAL INSURANCE AND TIME TO KEEP BEING INCONVENIENCED BECAUSE DODGE FAILED TO INSPECT THE ELECTRICAL PART OF THEIR CAR.

I'M SENDING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE I WAS INVOLVED IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT WHERE I WAS GOING 70 MPH AND UPON IMPACT THE AIR BAG NEVER DEPLOYED AND I WAS HIT I'M MY CHEST BY THE STEERING WHEEL I THOUGHT THAT WAS THE PURPOSE OF AIRBAGS. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY

MY RADIO WITH THE TOUCHSCREEN HAS BEEN REPLACED 4 TIMES I BELIEVE DUE TO AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE-CONTINUED TO FLICKER ON AND OFF. THE VISOR FELL OFF, NOW THERE ARE NO INTERIOR LIGHTS. BRAKE RECALL REPAIR DONE, BUT NOW ENGINE LIGHT ON, STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP WHILE IN REVERSE, ALL SYSTEM LIGHTS CAME ON LOOKING LIKE FAILURE. CAR WAS ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN, BUT WHEN PUTTING FOOT ON GAS IT WOULD HAVE NO EFFECT. NOW THE CAR DOES NOT START OR EVEN TURN OVER INCLUDING WHEN JUMP STARTED. I HAVE DOCUMENTATION OF THE RADIO REPAIR AND BRAKE RECALL AND HAVE VIDEOS ON MY PHONE OF THE ACCELERATION WITH FOOT ON THE BRAKE.

I HAD MY CAR FOR 5 MONTHS BEFORE HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES. EVERY LIGHT IN THE DASH CAME ON MY CAR STARTED TO SLOW DOWN ON IT'S OWN UNTIL IT CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. EVERY GEAR ON THE SHIFTER TURNED RED AFTER PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK LEAVING ME WITH NOTHING ELSE TO DO BUT TURN THE CAR OFF. AFTER TURNING IT OFF I TRIED TO TURN THE KEY OVER TO RESTART BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T COME ON AT ALL. AFTER THAT I HAD MY CAR TIRED TO ONE DODGE DEALERSHIP, WHICH IT STAYED FOR 2 WEEKS UNTIL THEY DECIDED THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO SO THEY HAD ME YOU'RE IT TO ANOTHER DODGE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT STAYED 2 MONTHS. AFTER REPLACING THE HARNESS TWICE, THE ABS MODULE TWICE AND THE SHIFTER CABLE THEY TOLD ME IT WAS READY. I PICKED UP MY CAR THURSDAY AND GUESS WHAT TWO DAYS LATER (TODAY TO BE EXACT) IT HAS DONE IT AGAIN. I'M NOT ONLY AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR, I AM DOWN TO NO VEHICLE AGAIN.FYI THIS IS ABOUT $4000 LATER.

WHEN SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE THE SHIFTER WHET LIMP AND THE CAR WAS STUCK IN REVERSE. I WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT TO ANOTHER GEAR OR REMOVE THE KEYS.

PARKING BRAKE HAS BEEN INOPERABLE IN LIEU OF GALVANIC CORROSION ON THE REAR BRAKE CALIPER. THE STEEL SPRING LOCATED AT THE REAR BRAKE CALIPERS WHICH REGULATES THE OPERATION OF THE EMERGENCY BRAKE OR PARKING BRAKE HAS SEIZED WITH ITS ROTATING ARMATURE. THIS STARTED HAPPENING OVER A YEAR AGO AND AS OF TWO MONTHS AGO HAS COMPLETELY SEIZED. I FIRST CHANGED THE REAR BRAKE ROTORS AND PADS IN HOPES THAT WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM HOWEVER, IT ONLY CAUSED THE REAR EMERGENCY BRAKE CALIPER TO NOT RELEASE WHILE DRIVING. I HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND COMPLETELY RELEASE ALL OF THE PARKING BRAKE TENSION THROUGH THE HANDLE ADJUSTMENT BOLT. THEN I HAD PHYSICALLY PUSH AND PULL THE VEHICLE BACK AND FORTH AT WHICH POINT THE REAR BRAKE PADS SLOWLY RELEASED. I COULD NOT GET THE BRAKES TO RE-ENGAGE AFTER, AND HAVE SINCE DISCOVERED THE SPRING ASSEMBLY IS SEIZED ON THE REAR CALIPERS FOR THE PARKING BRAKE.

PROBLEMS SINCE DAY 1 WITH MY 2013 DODGE DART. THE CLUTCH WOULD STICK IN AND I WOULD HAVE TO POP IT UP WITH MY FOOT. I WOULD TAKE MY CAR IN AND EVEN LEFT IT FOR A COUPLE DAYS AND THEY JUST TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM. AND THE "SPECIALIST" SAID WHAT I WAS TELLING THEM ABOUT THE CLUTCH WAS IMPOSSIBLE! SO I STARTED VIDEOING AND POSTING MY CLUTCH ISSUES ON YOUTUBE. THE RADIO SWITCHES STATIONS BY ITSELF, IT GOES OFF OR WON'T COME ON. I'VE HAD THE RADIO REPLACED AND IT STILL DOES THE SAME THING! I'VE HAD BATTERY ISSUES WITH THE BATTERY DRAINING AND ULTIMATELY BEING REPLACED. THE CRUISE CONTROL WORKS ABOUT HALF THE TIME. DEALERSHIP ENDED UP REPLACING THE CLUTCH, HAD MY CAR BACK 2 DAYS AND THE CLUTCH WENT OUT AGAIN. JUNE 11TH 2015 TOOK MY CAR IN IMMEDIATELY WHEN THE REAR BRAKE STARTED STICKING. THEY HAD MY CAR TWO DAYS AND SAID THEY ADJUSTED THE BRAKE BUT COULDN'T REPRODUCE THE SOUND I HEARD COMING FROM MY REAR PASSENGER TIRE. SO TWO WEEKS GO BY AND I TAKE MY CAR BACK AGAIN DEMANDING THEY TAKE ANOTHER LOOK AT IT. BY NOW THE RIGHT REAR CALIBER IS STUCK IN AND HAS RUINED MY ROTOR AND BRAKE PAD. LATER MY CAR STARTS SPITTING AND SPUTTERING. TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THE ONLY THING THEY COULD FIND WRONG IS THE AIR FLOW PIPE TO THE TURBO WAS LOOSE AND THEY TIGHTENED IT. I DECIDED TO GO TO A NEW MECHANIC, HE SAID ONE OF MY IGNITION COILS BLEW. 8 MONTHS LATER MY CAR STARTS DOING THE SAME THING AND MY MECHANIC SAYS ANOTHER IGNITION COIL BLEW. AND HE CANNOT GET ONE FOR MY EXACT CAR BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL ON BACK ORDER WITH DODGE! HE ALSO INFORMS ME THAT THERE ARE 3 COMPUTERS IN MY CAR AND THEY ARE NOT TALKING TO EACH OTHER. IT TOOK THEM A WHILE TO FIGURE OUT IT WAS THE IGNITION COIL BECAUSE THE COMPUTER DID NOT ALERT THAT TO THEIR TESTER. NOW MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AGAIN AND AFTER 3 TECHNICIANS LOOKED AT MY CAR THEY SAID I NEED A NEW TURBO.
