2015 Dodge Dart driver assistance problems

Filed Oct 19, 2025 · Driver assistance, Electrical · MI

I am the original owner of this vehicle and have used this vehicle as my primary vehicle that has been well maintained in excellent mechanical condition with no accidents. The issue is the continuous flexing of the wire harness routed from the truck to body opening which continues to wiring shorts and breakage resulting in failure of the rear back up lamps, rear taillamp lighting and back up camera operation. Failure of these critical safety related items provide increased risk of personnel injury and property due to loss of rear visibility to the vehicle operator along with disabling the back up light signature to warn surrounding vehicle traffic of intended backup maneuvering leading to personnel injury and vehicle collision. A caution signal of backup lamp outage appears on the instrument panel along with continued outage and flicking of the rear camera function. This wire harness has been repaired at the Chrysler Dodge dealership multiple times via a deductible warranty charged to vehicle owner, never resolving the failure from once again reoccurring. Recently the rear camera and backup lamps have again failed which the Chrysler dealership has identified as being within the previously repaired wire harness. Due to the multiple times the dealership has attempted to make repairs, the dealership service records now state the wiring failures can no longer be repaired due to the poor harness condition. These aforementioned safety lighting /rear lighting devices are no longer functioning and vehicle service being denied. Repairs to this wire harness have only been made at the Chrysler dealership. This wire harness is a well known problem area to owners and a "nuisance problem" to vehicle repair technicians. A more robust harness design and routing engineered to account for wire harness flexing to account for typical trunk open/closing to maintain the expected integrity and operation of these safety items.

Electronic Braking System Failure, was approaching a stop sign at 60 mph, was unable to stop, towed to shop. Shop is replacing brake booster, had to pay out of pocket (same as recall R63, but my model year did not fall into it), just wanted to report in hopes that this model year will fall into the recall, and prevent this happening to others! " The brake booster on your vehicle may experience engine oil migration from the vacuum pump, through the vacuum supply tube, and into the brake booster. Prolonged brake booster diaphragm exposure to engine oil could cause the diaphragm to fail. This could lead to a loss of brake booster assist and/or an air leaking sound. A loss of brake booster assist could require the driver to apply additional brake pedal force to stop the vehicle. The lack of brake booster assist could change the braking characteristics of the vehicle and cause a crash without warning."

My car is randomly stopping when I press the brakes. My check engine light has come on and had the car looked at by a mechanic and he says it has something to do with the PCM.

I have been experiencing pretty much every recall that is on the list number one it started with my car check engine light coming on. And the codes that kept on coming up or for the plugs and coils. I would replace them and they would just go bad again in like a week it is causing my car to do what seems like it's misfiring. My tire light is stuck on when the tires are fine. The speed control stops working on and off. When I steer there's a loud clicking noise. Whenever I try to shift here lately sometimes it won't go into gear. When I turn on the AC it will cause the car to misfire and the only way to make it stop is to turn off the AC and restart the car sometimes three to four times before it stops messing up.today the scariest thing of all happened I was pulling out of bronze and white smoke billowed out of the car tailpipes I'm not sure why. The car is also sporadically not going in gear when I am on the highway making me worry that me and my five kids are in danger due to someone raikkonen to me because my car will not go up to speed and will not shift into the right gear and misfires and will not go over like 30 miles per hour and putz. I replace parts and it seems to work well for a week or two but my car is not on the recall list they say that every single thing that is on the recall list is happening to my car. I don't know what to do about all of this I honestly you just think that dart needs to take the car back.. Like recall it completely. This car has been nothing but trouble after the first year of driving it.

While driving at various speeds, but mainly at lower speeds and while at a stop, the engine will stall and all power is lost to steering and brakes while several warning lights then appear on the dashboard - I have read on chat rooms of hundreds of these occurrences, and most seem to pint to a low oil condition that does not first light the oil light on the dashboard, but some indicate other electrical issues.

The right window no longer works as well as the driver side window. The trunk is also not wanting to open. Key gets stuck in ignition every time I try and turn the car off. Shift cables also broke, I was just getting home when it happened I heard something snap but didn't think much then I parked and tried to drive off again and the car wouldn't shift to drive I could move the stick.back and forth still,had it replaced a couple of days later they said the whole rod had come out and shot into something else in the vehicle had shift fixed. Also had motor mouths fixed the mouths became loss within a couple of days now I believe the AC compressor is messing up AC kicks on but no air comes out, but it only happens once in a while car also stays cold for a long while and makes a weird clicking noise when I start it up. Also smells like oil. Passage seat also is stuck. This all happened within 2years ive had the vehicle.

Battery light comes on. Recall for shifter was fixed, but the fuse box is now burnt. It's is a special part. I think that there is a correlation between the recall then part is inter the battery and near fuse box,

Power train recall....I was backing out of my driveway into the road and the recall item for transmission. The electronic device came off and the transmission would not shift into any gear and I got stuck in the middle of the road I live on while traffic was trying to get through. My car would not go in reverse or drive. I got it pulled back into my driveway and a nice gentlemen that helped looked at my car and realized that the power train was not attached.
