I purchased my dodge dart at 21,000 miles. 30,000 miles car shuts off on highway. Total power loss. Dodge was able to limit the problem however ran rough and at about 45000 miles car shifted hard now at 70000 dodge tells me it's the transmission valve body. 3,000 dollar repair. At this point car is not worth 3000. Still shuts off completely while driving. Transmission control module is recalled for the 2013 dart however not my VIN# ????? I see tons of people with the same issues even cases against dodge for this model. However they are unwilling to help me out with any issues I bring to their attention. Unfortunate. For me.

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

My car randomly will not start thinking that it is not in park. This also causes the diagnostic electronics to go haywire. I'm told there is a bushing that will fix this problem, but dodge refuses to provide this part to my local dealer. The bushing is designed to cause the car to know it is in park so it will start. I'm also told this is a recall issue, but I received no recall notice from dodge.

There's an active recall on my 2013 dodge dart aero for the shifting cable bushing. I was driving home from work and my traction control light came on, I lost the ability to accelerate, my car wasn't registering it was in park so I couldn't turn it off. I had it towed to a dealership on main street in norristown, pa. Mopar said the part won't be shipped to dealers for the recall until the end of august so they want to put another faulty part in. They are telling me I have to pay for it and mopar says they are not doing at repayments. They have also refused to give me a loaner car in the mean time. I don't feel as a consumer that I should have to pay for this or a rental because this is a recall issue. It is not safe to drive this car. I was very lucky no one else was on the road when mine failed, and that I was able to pull over safely without harming myself or anyone else.
