In motion at random times my electronic throttle control light will flash at the same time I lose all power at any speed.....from coming into my driveway to highway speed 40-50mph to interstate speeds 65mph I was with my very I'll mom who has to travel with medical supplies and equipment and when she is in an accident, and left unable to get to her set destination, would suffer and did finally today ....we had to sit parked for longer that she medically is able to because of this problem with the electronic throttle control. It should be recalled & resolved before someone in my car, or myself, gets hurt or killed. I have had my avenger since february - march 2009 and today is december 2018 and it has happened for over 2 years to me just because I am still alive, don't mean it shouldn't be resolved. Again, this happened before I got to the mileage I am now and is still happening. My airbag light stays on and I don't know if it would even work......, if I was to impact from the loss of power that's caused from, the etc. Please recall & fix this.

When I bought the vehicle the check engine light was on. I asked the dealer and he said he was just sitting for awhile when I drove away it was off then 2 weeks later came back on. When I took it to eurozone they told me it was the heads need replaced that's 2900.00. I looked to see if this part was recalled and if it had been replaced on my vehicle I am unable to see where if at all this has been addressed by the dodge makers??? I love my vehicle I just want it to run like its suppose to also my tire light is on and have replaced all tires and still will not go off even after being reset. Also my car has an antifreeze smell like the car is hot but never shows that in the temp gauge it's getting hot at all. Please someone give me some info on what I can do to fix these problems???? Now the new light is my brake light illuminates when I am driving then shuts itself off.

When I first purchased this vehicle the engine light was on , I asked the sales person why and he said he hasn't been drove in a while . He took it for a ride and when he came back the light was off . A week later it came back on and I took it to auto zone they said it was the ignition coil . I fixed that and it still comes up randomly. Now my car still sounds horrible when I start it and I have to replace the starter and I've barley had the car since march . Also my car turns off randomly now while I'm in a reverse motion. Happens frequently. Also the tire pressure light is on and won't go away . I replaced tires and they say it's a sensor. A lot of problems and the sales person never told me there was any recalls on this vehicle.

Wednesday october 10th 2018 approximately 10:30 a.m. I was on my way to smoothie kind in cooper city located inside of a plaza. As I turned into the parking spot with my foot already on the brake to slow down into said parking spot the vehicle accelerated on its own. I pumped the brakes once nothing stopped the vehicle and it went over the medium between parking spots and hit a unoccupied vehicle on the left front. Then stopped just before hitting a tree. I'am not sure what happened but their seems to be an electrical malfunction because my mileage has disappeared since.

I was driving when I noticed the red lightning bolt light come on on the dash. Then the check oil light came on (and I don't need an oil change) . My tire pressure light had been coming on that day, I assumed bc it was colder that day. As I was driving I was getting into the left turn lane and as I got to the end of the lane and straightened my wheel I noticed I couldn't really turn my wheel. Once I got the green arrow to turn, I put my foot on the gas and I wasn't moving. I turned my hazards on put it in park and turned it off when I noticed my car was already off. I started it back up and the lights on my dash went away and it was fine. I've also been noticed the past couple weeks that my car revs up whenever it feels like it. I'll be parked and the car will rev up or I'll be driving a steady speed and my car will just speed up. Sometime even when I'm braking to come to a stop my car will start zooming forward.

Tire pressure monitoring system indicator light came on. Every since I have been having various problem with this car. Such as engine rough idling/stalling, transmission issues, tire pressure monitor don't work, engine won't start/dead battery. Just a lot of unusual problems. I be driving the vehicle city or highway. Don't matter whether I am driving straight or turning. This vehicle will stall in the middle of the road. Yet stall right back up. All started after the tire pressure monitoring light came on. I believe it has something to do with the tire monitor system. I have been taken chances, hoping that it will go away like it started. My repair service can't fine the problem and said to check for recalls. These unsafe conditions have been going on for a while. Help needed

Windshield wipers failed on several occasions while driving in the rain. Had the wiper motor and switch replaced and the problem persists. Wipers will stop in the middle of the windshield and inch up and down but never going back to original position. I have to physically push the wipers back down each time. Also, headlight flicker. Vehicle has also started by itself without the key or remote starter function. This all points to the tipm since it controls all of these functions.
