Tl* the contact owns a 2013 dodge dart. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled when the fuel tank was filled. The contact had to turn off and restart the vehicle. The contact took the vehicle to multiple independent mechanics, but they could not duplicate the failure. The contact recently attempted to fill up the tank and the tank stopped allowing fuel to enter, which caused a long delay. The vehicle was taken to jim cogdill dodge chrysler jeep ram (8544 kingston pike, knoxville, tn 37919, (865) 690-1611) where they attempted to diagnose the failure. The dealer had to order new parts for the fuel tank, which cost over $1,000. The contact authorized the repairs once the parts arrive. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 90,000.

The car keeps cutting off. I crank it back up and it runs for a little bit and cuts right back off. I have had the battery and alternator check and that's not the issue.

Recall r42 . This recall applies only to the transmission control unit and it states that the module could randomly get into neutral while driving. We had this called serviced at nyle maxwell in austin and it did not fix the problem. After taking the car in an leaving it in for them to fix it for weeks twice so far, they return it as "problem could not be found or duplicated" I have since then purchase, two more transmission control modules (TCM) to fix the safety issue I found a replica of what was put in at the dealer to service recall r42. Upon a failure! The TCM module does not recover and renders the car in mobile when the spare module is plugged in, the errors go away and the transmission starts to run correctly. The car can then be stop by turning of the car and the failing unit reconnected and the car starts to run correctly again without the service transmission error and the absence of gears. This proves it is not the transmission but the smarts in the TCM. As for the TCM that was put in, that one is still failing to operate the transmission without leaving us broken down on the side of the road without gears. So please help me investigate, what is the last and appropriate version that would fix r42 recall issues in this 2013 dart dodge ddtc 1.4l turbo model. Thank you so much for your help.

My 2013 dodge dart has been going through issues for a year. My tires have been popping left and right brand new and used tires just popping while I'm driving with my kids in the car. The car now has a bcm problem as well as a small gas leak. I have went through multiple dealership that looked over the car and can't determine where the gas leak is coming from in which my check engine is still one which leave me to not be able to get the vehicle inspected or registered again. This car has caused me and my family so much money and issues. It hardly wants to drive, my key gets stuck in the ignition for some reason and I can't turn the car off. The dodge and recall place told me they can not help me because my VIN is not recalled but I've been having the same issues as every other 2013 dodge dart.

The vehicle engine will buck and or stall immediately after a complete fuel fill-up. The issue can last anywhere from 5-13 miles after the fill up. Afterwards the vehicle operates normally. It occurs after every fill-up and started three fill-ups ago. This is very dangerous especially when on the highway.

There was already a recall on my vehicle. Then I have had two brand new starters put into my car at the chrysler dealership and both times the starters were burned to a crisp in less than 48 hours. Now I'm having transmission issues and no one knows what's going on

There are two issues that I have returned my vehicle to the dealership for repairs multiple times and paid significantly for the non-repair. The first is the centerstack display. The display will intermittently go blank typically following a left hand turn. The vehicle has been in twice for this condition and still displays the failure. The second is the transmission. Based on a fca recall, the vehicle was taken to the dealership for a transmission reflash! At that point there had never been an issue with the transmission while driving. Since that event however, the vehicle has never performed as expected. The vehicle was returned to the dealership only to learn there was a problem with the transmission module so that was replaced. Unfortunately, the problem is now worse. The vehicle shifts so rough, that it feels like the vehicle could stop at anytime. This is very concerning because I am not comfortable that I can accelerate into traffic which could cause an accident.
