2015 Dodge Dart lights 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.

I have a warning light on my car for P1065 and P1061 codes. These two codes comes and go away on their own. It usually occurs after starting the car and driving it for a few minutes. This causes the car to shake and slow down suddenly in the middle of the road. The car stops to shake only when I shut it off and turn it back on right away. Another issue is that my car key get stuck in the ignition sometimes after shutting it ofand I have to wait a few seconds for the key to come off or press the button on the gearshift handle a few times to make it come out. I wonder if this is related to the Transmission Shift Cable Bushing safety recall repair that was done a few years ago on dodge dart vehicles Lastly, I have been getting the "parking light out" warning messages on my car dashboard but all the light appears to be working fine. I have looked up these issues online and they appear to be common problems faced by Dodge Dart owners.

My check engine light is on. I had it checked it's not reading anything. My right turn signal light keep going out. I have paid firestone in east chase in montgomery al to replace the socket and I have had the bulb changed out at least 3 times. My trunk started out opening by it self. I had the battery replaced in the remote. Now the trunk will not open at all. The reverse lights are out. I replaced the bulbs. Still won't work, the trunk light is out. Now the car has started to beep beep like I have locked or unlocked the door when I have not touched it. I have to replace my battery every 3 months. Something is wrong. I have paid money at brewbaker and firestone in montgomery al. I still have the same problem. When I start the car up. The car beeps beeps when it is parked and the doors locked.

When pulling into the store a warning came on my screen stating that my turn signals were out when they weren't. Also stated that my low beams were out, they weren't. While driving in traffic a metallic burning smell came through the air vents every couple miles.

The racetrack tail light on my 2015 dodge dart has had a seal issue causing water to get behind the lense and causing the LED light to burn out. Not all of them. I've seen multiple dodge vehicles with the similar issue. Hopefully someone can get them motivated to get it fixed.

The headlights have been intermittent since I purchased the car, I ended up having to have both ballasts and bulbs replaced, still experiencing this issue intermittently. It is not something that is a recall or covered under any warranty past 40,000 this car has 50,000 and I'm already going to have a computer module replaced as it controls the headlights this will not be a cheap repair. This should be a recall as many dart owners are experiencing this issue. The fog lights are the only forward facing lights I have that work at times, stationary or moving, other times it's one or the other,

Nov 2016, loss of power while driving, went into neutral, would start a few minutes later, but loss of power again. Took to dealership & they replaced the engine. Feb 2017 key stopped working, changed battery still didn't work, changed it again & it worked. April 6, 2017 loss of power completed died, I could not jump it, could not lock my doors, could not do anything. Picked up car from dealership on april 10, they said that they changed the battery. While still there picking up my car, my blinker lights blew out, notification on the screen says right & left blinker light out. They switched out the bulbs. Got it home & notification said low beam lights out. The next morning had no lights. Taking to the dealership again tomorrow. I am forcing them to look at the electrical system I am close to my 36000 mile warranty.
