I took my car in for a recall and as of may 13th I'm still without my vehicle and still having to make the payment plus insurance. I don't know when I will get my car but it has been in the shop enough times I filed for a breech of warranty but chrysler only offered me 4000 take away the 2000 for attorney fees so 2000 is what I would have walked away with. I did not accept the offer and now I'm trying to figure out what to do. My car doesn't have a remedy for the issue but it's had transmission problems since day 1 had new engine new turbo new starter new gaskets new radiator and much more and nothing has been because of neglect. I truly feel I have a lemon on my hands and need help getting into a safe car. The dealership won't do anything about it told me to get a lawyer so I did but unless we agreed on an amount they wouldn't proceed. My car is unsafe to drive and I'm trying to get a lawyer that can take care of this or help me get a safer car for me and my kids.*dt consumer stated PCM/TCM has been a recall in the past engine light being on is code p2096 which caused leak in one of the hoses.*jb

While driving the screen will randomly go completely black and then start flickering white - my dash is now doing the same, simultaneously. However, the screen lights (speed, miles, mpg, etc) stay dim to where I can't even read what is says. My speedometer and gauges will give out and then proceed to quickly flicker up and down. After about 30 seconds of this happening, the whole electronic system resets itself. This has happened 5 times within the last two days, within a maximum of 4 total hours driving time. When starting my car, it hesitates to start - it makes clicking noises prior to actually starting. The battery is fairly new as well. My center console randomly stops working, I have zero control over the radio / climate function. Even after disconnecting the battery, the problem resumes. The uconnect doesn't work - no phone system, or bluetooth music. The back-up camera has completely gone out. There seems to be several issues with the dodge dart that go unsolved and are a huge safety risk.

'takata recall' check engine light came on. Having issues with trunk popping open when driving or just at random times. Car won't start all the time and when it does it's real jumpy and shakes a lot.

The battery light and engine light started flickering on and off, and the vehicle started idling and decreasing in speed for no reason. When trying to accelerate it did not want to do so, and again the lights and power started flickering turning on and off intermittently. Upon pulling to the side of the road I turned the engine off, at which trying to restart, the engine did not turn over only clicking noises. Instead still what seemed like a surging of power with all random lights flickering and stereo turning on and off. This issue had not only happened once but now twice, and I am currently left car less as the issue cannot be fixed or found. A tune up was done on my car, wires replaced, the battery replaced twice, and a module replaced due to the fan for air conditioning intermittently turning off and on on it's own for no rhyme or reason. I have receipts for all stated above replacements. However, I have kept them in my car recently due to have to replace multiple parts within only a couple months of the part being replaced. No one seems to be able to figure out what is taking place, and I am certainly tired of paying for parts to replace the problem when they have not helped in any way shape or form. It seems to me it is more of a manufacturing issue than a maintenance issue. More over the first time this issue occurred I was on the highway and could've been severely injured due to cars driving at high speeds and not paying attention. This issue is really dangerous and could be life threatening if not handled appropriately. I would highly suggest someone looking into these faults before it costs a life.

Since march 2019 check engine light has come one 3 times. My car has either stalled in middle of intersection and/or has a bucking sensation and then check engine turns on. This is unacceptable that it keeps occurring. One time they replaced battery, next time recall v34 and again today. There has to be something going on with this model. I do not feel safe.this happens while I am driving.

I have a 2013 dodge dart aero 6 speed manual, dual dry clutch, multi air turbo. I purchased vehicle in february 2017. 4 months later I had brought my vehicle into carsense for an oil change. Meanwhile I asked them to check the brakes also due to braking issues and my ebrake was not working properly and had a mind of it's own. It worked when it wanted to, but yet everything is in "great condition" says carsence.mind you that I had just purchased this vehicle in february and it was recently inspected in january 2017. Service dept. Inspected my brakes and gave me the current measurements of existing brake pads left. About june 2018 I was coming up to a stop sign in a 25 MPH side street with light traffic. I had trouble slowing down to a complete stop. When I managed to come to a complete stop I heard a loud bang. Here my driver's side rear rotor was severely smoking and I noticed my rotor was redhot. My rotor snapped completely in half. My shifter would randomly pop out of gear or the clutch would lightly stick, smelling exhaust odor I'm now pushing 62, 000 miles and what do you know. I am coming home into my development. I'm in second gear turning onto my lane and doing maybe 10 MPH well it decides to pop out of gear and accelerates, redlining second gear(I'm assuming it thinks it's in second) and all dashboard lights are flashing steering wheel it locked. Car is now doing 80 MPH in a 15 MPH zone. My brakes are not working at all brake pedal is harder than hard. I have no control of this vehicle!! Engine finally cuts out after I removed the key from the ignition. Comes to a screeching halt. Thank god. It wont start still to this day..oil in turbo and up the hose. Battery plays dead along with my instrument panel and my transmission needs a computer upgrade that's not even available for the 1.4l turbo engine...it needs a TCM, new master cylinder.
