2012 Dodge Dart brakes complaints
Page 4 of 11: complaints 71 to 100 of 281, newest first, as owners wrote them.
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.

The vehicle was taken to the dealer on several occasions where it was diagnosed that the brake booster was faulty. The brake booster was replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 35,000. Updated 09/28/16*lj updated 09/18/2017
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.

This vehicle is subject to safety recall r63. Went to paul bailey's,425 ten rod road, north kingstown ri. Informed that the parts were in to perform the safety recall. Appointment scheduled for 6/9/2016. At which time the service department informed us that the brake boosters had engine oil contamination and that the parts needed to be ordered. Told to come back once called. General manager stated that under this recall if the initial inspection revealed contamination then the parts were to be ordered and that a second appointment was necessary. Quite upsetting that the parts are only ordered if the first inspection reveals the need for further repair. This makes no sense, now driving a vehicle with a safety recall that could cause a loss of brake booster assist. The parts should be available if the appointment is for the recall. Now have to wait.
