What 1994 Dodge Shadow owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Cam shaft broke at 60,000 miles on a vacation trip.... Cost of on road repairs... $600.
On the belt pully, I was just pulling out of the drive and the belt blew apart, and the air bag light came on and stays on now, the lights, I have replaced the bulbs but that does not fix th e problem.
While driving at any speed vehicle will suddenly stall. There is no prior warning. Contacted dealer, and dealer is not willing to do anything.
Engine motor mounts broke. All four, front and rear mounts broke at 40,000 miles. Dealer has been contacted.
The temprature guage does not work properly causing the vehicle to run hot after the dealer repaired the vehicle.
Drive belt tensioner pulley progressively misaligned itself over time, causing the accessory drive belt to come off . This leaves the driver with no power steering, no charging system, and a damaged accessory drive belt. The first incident happened on 02/24/1997. The second incident happend on 1/14 2000. I believe a t.s.b exists concerning this issue. In my opinion, it should be a recall. This can result in a motorist with a weak battery stranded.
While driving vehicle overheats and shuts down whith no warning. The fan motor and the wirning harness has been replaced four times . Dealer has been notified.
Engine mount broke.
Camshaft broke.
