I think that is enough to tell you this model has defects too many to mention. I think dodge should allow some sort of renumeration on repairs or a nice reasonable discount on future purchases since this is my second dodge.
All 4 weather strip seals for all 4 doors are too small. They did not shrink. They have been defective since the car was purchased and the dealership refuses to replace them. They are asking for over $300.00 and are stating that the weather strip seals shrunk. The seals did not shrink. They were too small to begin with.
While backing out of the driveway the front driver's side of the the bumper hit a snowbank and cracked. Vehicle was driven at about 5mph. The dealer replaced the bumper. Owner says it only happens during cold weather.
The consumer has been experiencing problems with trunk lid assembly. While trunk was in the air, it came down and hit consumer in the head on two occasions. The manufacturer has been contacted.
Hood latch failed to open when pulled due to poor assembly. The hood on this vehicle needs to be dropped in order to engage the hood lock. Nevertheless, the dealer felt that the hood latch mechanism broke "due to lack of maintenance" and not poor manufacturing practices. It is inherently dangerous to have an unreliable hood latch mechanism because it makes it nearly impossible to fix any emergency engine problems. This part should be fail-proof throughout the life of the vehicle as long as the hood has not been in an accident.
Metal bars located under hinges of rear doors are rusted causing doors to make a creaking sound.
Timing belt sprocket broke, causing engine to stall/fail.
Engine light came on due to a failed oxygen sensor.
Resurfaced front brake rotors; also, headlights are very dim, especially in rain/struts keep clicking/worn out door hinges replaced/windshield washers freeze up.
Thick frost on inside of all windows.
Trunk lid will drop with a heavy force when opened, causing injuries.
Left/front door seal failed.
Headlights do not provide sufficient lighting and are poorly adjusted, reflection off dashboard is obstructing visibility, vehicle's horn is hard to activate.
Trunk support bar does not hold the trunk lid up, resulting in injuring people. Tt
