I was at a traffic light the light turn green I went to accelerate black smoke came out the tail pipe the car stalled then cut off it was towed to the dealership in which it stayed for several days got a call that it was ready picked it up on february 11th drove home parked it till that friday which was the 13th driving to work it was driving funny I stopped to let a truck pass by after the truck passed went to accelerate car wouldn't move tried to accelerate again car wouldn't move it wouldn't go in park it wouldn't nothing by this time the engine light came on the dash read press clutch and push start well guess what there is no clutch then battery saver mode came on the retraction light came on and then it shut off then service park assist system came on as well.... I got out because it was in the middle of the road so for my safety I left it there finally a few guys stopped pushed it to safety till the tow truck arrived it was towed to the dealer again which they kept until friday the 20th I refused to drive it so the dealer had someone to drive it to my home at that time I pleaded with chrysler to let me keep the rental car because I had a funeral I had to attend on saturday 21st they told me no that my car was ready and if I didn't drive it they would consider it to be abandoned so I said ok but I would be very upset if I missed this funeral! So drove to the house as we lined up for the funeral everyone one was in place as we proceed to leave the house for the funeral guest I went to accelerate and my car would not move it cut off in the middle of the funeral line I was so embarrassed I didn't know what to do so needless to say I missed the funeral and the graveside service as well and as of today friday 27th my car is still at the dealership with no answers !!! It's simply just give me a new car if I wanted a lemon I would have brought one.

Battery saver message went on. Lights flickered.since there is an upcoming recall on alternator with the 2014 models manufactured april 22, 2010, to january 2, 2014 and my cars manufactured date is may of 2014 I hope you will include all 2014 models for the recall. Although my alternator has yet to completely fail the history of the current failures began with battery saver messages and electrical problems. I would like to get this resolved before my car loses power on the highway with my 3 children in it and possible getting hurt. Also if the alternator in this car is different than the recall and is showing problems in my car dodge might be replacing the current recall alternators with the alternator in my car.

Radio shut off and would not turn on while driving to destination. Once I got to my destination, I had the car in park, but the engine still turned on. All of the gauges in the dashboard started going crazy and then the inside lights started flashing. The car then shut off and had absolutely no power whatsoever. Could not even put my car in "neutral" to move it out of the middle of the road because it is "push to start" and has no way of getting power to the transmission to be able to put it in neutral. I was in the middle of the road waiting for dodge's roadside assistance to get there from 12:00 am until 5:30 am. The tow truck eventually came and took it to the nearest dealership to find out that my alternator went out and completely drained the battery as well. My car was only 3 thousand miles outside of the 36k bumper to bumper warranty and only 2 years old. Well timed, dodge!! Way to get out of paying for your mistakes!!
