Car has issue shifting between neutral and gears while driving. While in drive and acceleration is added car stalls and will occasionally burn clutch shifting between gears as if in neutral. If any acceleration is added car will rev as if in neutral. This happens at all speeds 20-30% of the time and appears to be getting worse. When braking to a stop the clutch burns 20-30% of the time when down shifting and fills cab with smoke. At complete stop entered drive and let off of brake. Engine accelerated to 3k RPM's then grinded gears trying to automatically shift into the appropriate gear. After grinding abruptly grabbed gear and functioned again. Acceleration from complete stop, car stalls before finding gear.

Over the past month, braking action is declining. They have become stiff and must be depressed quite hard to stop. The brake pads, upon inspection, are almost brand new and there is no grinding. Several mechanics have suggested the brake booster as a possible issue. Upon my own research, this appears to be a very common issue with this vehicle. Thousands of 2013-2014 dodge darts were recalled to replace the brake booster, although the 2015 has not. I'm very concerned that eventually, the brakes will worsen or fail as has happened with many others who own this same vehicle, as written on several internet forums.
