The passenger side of my avenger is blowing nothing but cold air. The heater and defrost on the drivers side works great. In winter driving the passenger side window will not defrost and this causes a very dangerous situation. I have read where many others have had the same problem and chrysler corp. Will do nothing about it. I believe it has something to do with debris coming from the water jackets around the engine. It is not the blender door as I have had it checked. Flushing or replacing the heater core is probably not an option since it will just clog the heater core again and this is very expensive. Until enough people complain this will just keep happening until dodge figures out how they can fix it permanently. This is dangerous in winter weather and it is a mystery, after spending 100's of dollars on a car you should expect to get what you paid for.

The drivers side window regulator is not working properly. Drivers side window will not go back up. Electrical problems random but always while in motion. Lights dim off and on. Tachometer has climbed to 70 miles per hour when only doing 40 miles per hour. Headlights brighten and dim. Safety gauges flash off and on. There is a recall for these problems with same make and model but not my VIN number. This car was purchased at enterprise in 2014. For some reason I am not receiving any recall notices. Could you please explain to me why my car is not included in these recalls. Thank you

Rolled the window down on the driver front door and there was a loud bang, the window would not roll back up. Thought the glass had broken. Went to a repair shop and was told the glass was not broken, the window regulator had broken. Had just pulled out of my parking space in front of my door.

The window regulators and motors continuously go out causing the windows to be unable to roll up or down. I have replaced them at least twice since 2010 and they now need to be repaired again, for a third time. This has happened while stationary, while driving on city streets, and while driving on highways.

More then (30) times intermittently electrical issues occur causing flashing (numbers/deck/fuse/blank) odometer, power for radio/time goes out, security system does not shut off or will not unlock the car, the car stalls while driving, the windows wont work, and starting the car can take several cranks. More importantly as a major safety issue, me and my daughter were stuck inside my car for an hour and a half because the electrical issue would not allow any of the doors to unlock. The 2008-2010 dodge avenger is known for electrical issues and electrical fires. Dodge is not covering these electrical issues under warranty. I did everything possible to unlock the doors such as the door panel button, turning on and off the car, switching gears, driving through the parking lot to trigger the auto speed lock, giving the key to someone through a small gap in the window to have them use the key manually, pressed the unlock on the key remote, none of this worked to unlock the car. I was even on the phone with the dodge dealership while this occurred and they could not tell me how to get out. We just had to wait out the electrical "fit" the car has. This issue has been impossible to diagnose because it is intermittent, however the car will be at the dealership this coming tuesday at my expense. It is a huge risk to drive this car due to the possibility of an electrical fire. I don't want my daughter, (still in a car seat) myself, or my husband to burn to death stuck in this car due to the lack of responsibility from dodge or manufacturer because its hard to diagnose. This should be recalled as there are thousands of complaints online specifically electrical with this car.
