2014 Dodge Dart engine complaints
Page 2 of 5: complaints 11 to 40 of 106, newest first, as owners wrote them.
I pull out in front of car don't know if car is going to or lag. Eats oil
The car dies while driving. Check engine light goes on. Will start back up but just dies and code read doesn't explain why or what might be needed. Have replaced battery, thermostat even though never ran hot, and oil+filter. Has gas
2 motor mounts and 1 transmission mount went bad. A rattling noise from the front of the motor. And the suspension is bad also.
I put in a complaint back in 2019 about using to much oil and my car acting funny. Now the car will jump/jerk when you put on the gas and the air bag light comes on and the engine light. I took it to have it fixed last year at a sullivan's garage and he can not find anything wrong. He went a head and changed the oil. And mind you I just had it changed aweek before. And he said I was already half a quart low. My car still will start jerking/jumping and stop. Ill have to turn the key off and take out and put the key back in and start the car. And the engine and airbag lights will go off.and I just had a oil change.it happens when I'm getting on the freeway to go home from work and ill have to pull to the side of highway!!! Driving to the store. This only happens when car engine is running lights come on and car is moving starts doing the jerks. Please do a recall on the engine!!! I love my car!!! But this is going to get someone hit in the car. And something needs to done now!!!!!! My husband thought I was crazy, until he drove it. You can call him [xxx] ask for [xxx]. My husband has sullivan's garage phone number also. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
So we were driving the roads were wet and it was snowing as we switched lanes we lost control of the car on the highway spun about 10 times and hit a cement barrier at about 40 miles hit the front of the car and the air bags did not deploy at all .
Bad motor mounts, vehicle was vibrating while driving. While idling vehicle feels normal but if accelerator is pressed the entire vehicle shakes.
It seems when it is cool outside when we crank our dodge dart that it sputters and sometimes dies in the middle of the highway sometimes failing to restart nobody can seem to tell me why it does this and I don't want a car I can't trust not to get my wife and kids hurt or killed
2014 dodge dart purchased new. Was driving vehicle on city street and came to stop and car just stalled on me with no warning which was very scary. Vehicle would not stop stalling so took to dealership and the technician said it would cost at least a thousand to take car apart as they believe it is a internal engine problem. It sucks cause now my car is out of warranty and by doing some searching looks like this is not a new problem to dodge but nothing was ever done about it. My car is in great condition with only 60,000 miles.
I need to get my shifter cable bushing replaced and my thermostat housing is messing up constantly
Car spontaneously stalled in highway driving. Seems to be a known issue. 2013 darts were actually recalled over the issue. Incredibly dangerous. Dodge should be required to recall the 2014s just like they recalled the 2013s.
Vehicle stalls while driving, happens multiple times. Plenty of fuel and oil level is within operational standards.
So I bought a 2014 dodgde dart gt a month gone I noticed that the motor would move on the right. So I bought the motor mounts and replaced it 1 week after I replaced it same thing keeps happening I took off the mount and replaced it w more expensive mount anther week passed and that same mount gave out making it 2 replaced. Plus the 3 the dealership had done took it too valors dealership and they told me it was the rear mount that was bad also so I replaced all motor mounts and now same 2 mounts iv replaced are doing the same thing the first 2 I contacted the dealership and told them their must something that wearing this mounts out so quick.cause I barly drive my car and I have to get this mount replaced for the 6th time.
My car has been at dewey since july 23rd for a service transmission light. When I dropped my car off, it was plugged into the computer and I was told that the code that popped up was for a recall on a transmission module and once the service tech looked at it, I would receive a call regarding any costs and time of repair. As I was leaving on vacation for the week, I was not too concerned. Saturday 7/25 - I received a call that a part was on order and the car should be ready monday or tuesday. Again, as I was on vacation, I said that would be just fine. I started calling and texting my service advisor, trent, thursday (7/30) morning. I did not hear anything from him until saturday (8/1). He stated he forgot to call me but that there was a problem with my car. He said the module was replaced and when they went to start the car, there was no power. The electrical system is fried. He said that the lead tech would look at it monday and we would go from there. Tuesday 8/4 - I received a call from trent that the lead tech needed to reach out to chrysler for assistance. Friday 8/7 - received a call that chrysler was sending another module and it should be there monday. Monday 8/8 - we had the storm and I didn't hear anything which is understandable. Thursday 8/6 - received a call that the module did not work. Chrysler decided to send a whole new transmission. It will be here monday or tuesday and will know more by end of the week. Monday 8/10 - email sent to gm at dewey expressing concern. Spoke with him regarding trading in car or additional warranty on my car. Told no additional warranty will be given. Transfer to sales. Thursday 8/13 - told my car would be ready early next week. Wednesday 8/17 - called service again. Were told not sure that the new transmission even arrived. Will call back. Drive through the dealership and my car is just sitting outside in the lot.
Unable to get car in park to shut off the car, and get key out. This happened where ever I park. It even happened at the garage.
On three occasions, my car has completely turned off while the car was on and in drive. On one occasion, in september 2019, I drifted to safety and tried putting my car in park, the shifter effortlessly slid to park mode but the light was on "d" as if it were in drive. I could not take my key out because my car thought it was in drive so I was stuck with my foot on the break, with a car that shut down on me. I couldn't even move the key to try to take it out and restart the car. I brought my car in and "fixed it'. I was told there was a v34 recall and that they replaced the transmission side shifter cable bushing. However, less than a year later it happened again, twice today (june 2020). Once on my way too the gym and once from the gym, back home. On both occasions today, the electronics on the touch screen and the digital display that displays the speed went black and restarted then my car completely died while in drive. Cars piled up behind me. People were honking and angry. I tried moving the shifter to park so I could take my key out and restart but the car locked up on me and I was unable to move the shift or take my key out. I had to wiggle the key out for over a couple min and eventually was able to move the key in park and take it out and restarted my car. It caused a traffic dilemma and was terrifying that my car completely shut down in a not so safe area and on a really busy road during rush hour. How could you sell a car to society that will spontaneously stop? I could have died!
I'm on the freeway driving my car and it stops in middle of the road . The power steering went out also. I almost got hit by a car behind me .
On numerous occasions I have gotten into my vehicle, started it and drove off. Now, if I do not let it warm up for a few minutes and get in and start it and take off, it will stall out when I slow down or come to a stop on a few occasions this has happened leaving my driveway on a blind hill, almost getting me hit in the drivers door. Yesterday, 2/12/2020, this again happened and it stalled out on me two times, once while turning around leaving me sideways across the road. It has happened at very busy intersections, it is just random.I feel it needs to be looked into. I did look it up and see numerous people are reporting the same issues. Last time this happened was on 2/12/2020 while leaving my driveway each time, the car was in drive when it stalled and pulling out of my driveway or intersection.
Every morning after I start my car I drive down the street and it stalls mid traffic. It does it multiple times. I have to drive around my neighborhood til vehicle stalls 4-5 times then drives ok. Safety issue. I have noticed that some of the cars have been recalled but not mine
Car is burning oil causing it to stall.
Vehicle engine shakes for no reason, back camera doesn't work. I wasn't able to shift my vehicle until a part was bought that would allow vehicle to change gear. Suspension went out on front and back around 50000 miles til this day car shakes on a regular basis
Car stalls without warning in all sorts of scenarios, just started, turning, stopping, up hill or down hill. Multiple inquiries with chrysler corporate and dealerships resulted in them telling me the car is engineered to allow 1qt of oil burned every 750 miles, per spec sheet I had to firmly demand to be able to see it. Was basically told there is no problem that my car dies in the middle of an intersection with my family in it, thereby the potential for a major catastrophic deadly situation is there. Chyrsler corporate cases were closed with no resolution and they nearly made me pay for the inquiry. This is all apparently hidden in the chrysler tsb - 09-001-12. My car had 25,000 miles and was needing about 7-8 quarts between oil changes according to the car's built in oil life meter which is intended to be used.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 dodge dart. While driving various speeds, the vehicle shut off without warning. Afterwards, the vehicle would sometimes restart and other times it would take multiple attempts to restart. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic, but they were unable to diagnose the vehicle. The manufacturer and dealer were not notified. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000. The VIN was unknown.
Starting at around 50,000 miles my vehicle has constant problems with the engine over heating. I bought it into the shop in august for this problem. They replaced some clamp and said that was the problem. In september the car was overheating again. I noticed the coolant was very low so I filled it and that seemed to work. Then in october the engine too hot light came on, again. I brought it back to the shop. They replaced the radiator cap and said that was the problem. Then one week later the engine light comes on for a cylinder 2 miss fire. I get that repaired and then the very same day the engine too hot light comes on. Refill the coolant again. There does not appear to be a leak and no one can seem to find any internal problems or signs of internal leaking yet the car just keeps over heating and now its just a guessing game as to when it happens again. Every time it has happened it has been at different amounts of movement. The first time I was stationary. The second time I was going slow. The third time was on the highway.
When my car in the winter time warms up the fan doesn't work unless I open up my engine hood and it cools down now this can be anywhere from 2 minutes me running my car attendance doesn't matter when I turn on the air-conditioning it shakes my whole car I am told it is nothing I don't believe it my transmission when I press on the gas because very slow and jerks a whole car and emotion I told them about this since I had the car and my brakes on the first car that I had my brakes went out and it after I kept complaining about it for six weeks and then they traded me for the 2014 dodge dart my car has 22500 miles on it none of this should be happening when I take it to my dodge dealership they think that it's nothing in pretty much tell me I got what I paid for I'd like to know if there's been other complaints about the engine transmission and the brakes not to mention a whole lot of other things that I don't even want to go into it says below to put down a date I'm going to put down a date for this is just an ongoing thing always
First of all, when steering to turn there is a cracking noise. It gives the feeling that the steering system is gonna break. Second main problem is that car shuts completely down with no reason when breaking. This just happen to me this morning. I was stoping because of a red light and the car shut down there. I could not turn it on after a few minutes min while I was complete stopped in the middle of the road. This is pretty dangerous if it happens while driving in the freeway...
Care starts overheating while the coolant is full and all other components are working. I have taken my vehicle to be repaired multiple times for the overheating and there is no sign of damage to be repaired. Also occasionally the oil seems to disappear from the engine with no leak or visible damage.. Car will occasionally stall out as well while I am driving. The car is in the shop and no one can tell me what is wrong with it. I have been driving 3 times and the car will turn off which is dangerous. The drive is extremely rough and is very uncomfortable it bangs really loud with any small bump. Car has a bunch of flaws and I have had it less than 2 years.
My dodge dart has an issue where the battery light will turn on and then the car will turn off while it is in use. This issue began around 1 year ago and has been sporadically happening since then. My mechanic exchanged my battery but the issue persisted and he has been unable to find a cause. Upon doing some research this is a common problem with dodge darts. When the oil gets low the car will shut off when in use without an indicator light showing the oil is low and despite the oil life percentage not being critically low (it was 17% the most recent time it happened to me). This is extremely dangerous because it happens abruptly and the steering locks up while the car is shutting off.
This has now happened 3 times and has been taken to a mechanic every single time to get fixed. Every single time I am driving, I slow down to turn around a corner, my engine completely stops, vehicle speed slows down, everything else works fine. Will not restart, needs jumped every single time. Each time I've been left in the road hoping not to get hit. I've read multiple complaints about this everywhere. If an accident or a bigger problem comes out of this, I will be suing. I've already spent hundreds of dollars on this problem. Somebody needs to do something about this before my bank account or my car is wrecked.
I bought this car brand from the dealer. It has stalled on me and on occasions, it does nothing when I turn the key to start. Total electrical defect. Sent lemon law form and only got a new battery from chrysler. The car still doesn't idle or run right. In the stalling scenario, the car was in motion. In the no start it was in park. I now have 117,000 miles on the car and feel defenseless to get a resolution. On occasions, the charging system light will come on as I turn the key off.
