Purchased a 2014 dodge dart used with a 6 speed. This incident happened just three weeks after I purchased it. I noticed it started to slip and while driving down the highway I heard a noise, car lost power and smoke started pouring out from under the hood. I had it towed to the dealership where I was informed that something failed in the clutch, blowing a hole through the transmission. This all happened within a minute or so while driving at highway speeds.
2014 Dodge Dart transmission complaints

The clutch pedal would stick to the floor in cold weather. Would easily stall because of poor engagement. Sometimes the car would buck or stutter because the clutch would not be able to effectively engage. Sometimes the vehicle would stall on engagement and have to sit for several minutes before the engine would start. After an attempted repair to the clutch hydraulics by corwin the clutch still has slop in it and poor worksmanship was found at another dealer. The transmission is now noisy and makes loud clunking or whining noises when the clutch is engaged or disengaged. The clutch will still partially stick to the floor in severe cold and is not safe to drive.
Went to shift from park into reverse and it didn't shift. Dash said r. Tapped the gas and still it didn't go. Tried 4 times from park to reverse before auto transmission caught with a bang. First time it happened around 16k+ miles it's happen two mornings now.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 dodge dart. While driving approximately 10 MPH, the clutch became stuck in the downward position and the gear shifter was stuck in first gear. The contact had to depress the clutch completely down to the floorboard to loosen the clutch, followed by aggressively pulling the gear shifter to get it out of first position. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The VIN was unavailable. The approximate failure mileage was 33,000.
