MY 2012 DODGE JOURNEY STARTED HAVING POWER STEERING ISSUES AS SOON AS THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE BEGAN TO GET COLDER. IT NOW IS ON A DAILY BASIS THAT I KEEP PUTTING POWER STEERING FLUID IN. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THE RECALL IS NOT AFFECTING MY CAR AT ALL. I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR IN JUNE OF 2019 AND NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS UNTIL IT BEGAN TO GET COLD OUT. I CAN NOT AFFORD TO HAVE IT REPAIRED ON MY WON.
MY 2012 DODGE AVENGER IS CLICKING BEHIND THE GLOVE BOX AND BLOWING HOT AIR FROM THE DRIVER SIDE AND COLD AIR FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND HAD TO PAY $1200 FOR A HEATER CORE. AFTER 3 MONTHS SAME PROBLEM.. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD I WOULD HAVE TO PAY AGAIN... THIS IS A DODGE DEFECT AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED WITH A RECALL .
RADIATOR PLUG UNDERNEATH PEACOCK, APPROXIMATELY 6 FROM THE FROM OF THE CAR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE BEGAN LEAKING PROFUSELY WITHOUT WARRANT OR CAUSE. THERE IS NO REPLACEMENT FOR THIS PLUG AND HAVE BEEN ADVISED THE RADIATOR WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO FAULTY ENGINEERING OF THE COMPONENT. PICTURES ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST
ENGINE CYLINDER 6 , MISFIRE WITH CODE 0306. CAR HAS ONLY 126985 .TOOK SECOND TIME TO THE DEALER.REFUSE TO FIX ,SEEMS IT WAS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT, THEY COMPAINT HAT EVEN THUGH THE VEHICLE IS UNDER 5 YRS BUT THE MILEAGE IS OVER 125 K MANUFATURE DODGE WONT PAY OR FIX THE ENGINE EVEN THOUGH THE CARAVAN HAD THIS POWETRAIN PROBLEM
CHRYSLER 5.7 ENGINE HAS A VERY LARGE FAILURE RATE ON THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD BOLTS WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THEY USED SUBSTANDARD MAYERIALS AND CUSTOMERS ARE HAVING TO SPEND MONEY ON REPAIRS THAT ARE OUT OF THE NORM FOR VEHICLE COST. THIS PROBLEM IS SO WIDE SPREAD THAT IT IS TEFERRED TO AS "THE HEMI TOCK" BY AUTO TECHNICIANS, SERVICE PERSONAL AND CHAT GROUPS. THIS IS SO BAD THAT SOME REFER TO IT AS A MAINT FIX THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED ON A REGULAR BASIS.
THIS HAS BEEN OCCURING FOR 1.5 YEARS AND IS GETTING WORSE. 2006 DODGE CHARGER 3.5L HAS PROBLEMS IN WARM WEATHER STALLING BRIEFLY UPON TRYING TO ACCELERATE. THIS HAPPENS MORE WHEN GAS TANK IS FILLED COMPLETELY. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND COULD CAUSE ME TO GET REAR ENDED ON THE INTERSTATE TRYING TO MERGE WITH TRAFFIC THAT IS AT FULL SPEED. CERTAIN MODELS HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE FUEL TANK, BUT NOT ON MY VIN NUMBER. I RESEARCHED AND KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS (GAS TANK), BUT THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED OR AN EXTENDED WARRANTY NEEDS TO BE DONE FOR THE PART ON MY VEHICLE.
THE REVERSE LOCKOUT HAS FAILED TWICE IN MY 2013 DODGE DART. WHEN IT FAILS, INSTEAD OF PUTTING THE CAR IN FIRST GEAR THE CAR GOES INTO REVERSE. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM TWICE SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. BOTH TIMES I ALMOST RAMMED INTO THE CAR BEHIND ME.
CONTROL ARM AND BALL JOINT RECALL, PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN 2014, WONDERING IF THIS WAS FIXED BECAUSE THE FRONT LEFT SIDE STARTED MAKING MY STEERING VEER OFF THE ROAD, WAS TOLD TO LOOK FOR A RECALL THIS IS A 2000 DODGE DURANGO 4.7, 4X4
MY BRAKES ARE MAKING SQUEAKING NOISES AND LOUD RUBBING NOISES WHEN I MAKE A STOP. ALSO MY DRIVER'S WINDOW HAS TROUBLE OPENING AND CLOSING WHEN I PRESS THE BUTTON TO DO SO. I AM NOT SURE IF THE BRAKES OR ROTORS NEED REPAIRING. I HAD THE BRAKES OR ROTORS DONE A GEW MONTHD AGO. ALSO THERE'S A KNOCKING NOISE WHEN I TURN THSCAC/HEAT ON OR OFF
I HAVE A 2007 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN. WHEN I TOOK IT IN TO HAVE A NOISE CHECKED IT TURNED OUT TO BE A HUB ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, IT TOOK THEM A LONG TIME TO GET THE HUB OFF AND THEN AFTER THAT WHEN I HAD THE REAR BRAKES REPLACE THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT OFF EVERYONE TOLD ME THAT WAS NOT A REAL PROBLEM. BUT THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I HAD THAT CHECK AND THEY SAID IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH A PART THAT HAD TO DO WITH GAS MILAGE. I DID NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO GET THAT FIXED BUT WAS TOLD THAT WAS NOT A REAL PROBLEM. ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO OR SO I DROVE TO WORK AND CAR WAS FINE BUT WHEN I CAME OUT TO GO HOME THERE WAS A NOISE WAS NOT SURE WHAT IT WAS BUT WHEN I GOT HOME MY SON CHECKED THE OIL AND ALL THE OIL WAS OUT OF THE VAN THE OIL LIGHT NEVER CAME ON. NOW THE VAN IS NOT DRIVABLE AND THE ENGINE IS SHOT. THE OIL LIGHT DID WORK BEFORE THIS AND I HAD THE OIL CHANGED BEFORE THAT AND NO OIL ON THE GROUND.
2013 DODGE CHALLENGER. VEHICLE MALFUNCTION/COMPUTER SHUTDOWN. CAR COMPUTER SYSTEMS CUT OFF LEADING TO HAVING NO POWER AND NO OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE. CAUSING TO BE UNSAFE ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE DRIVING. THE RECALL WAS SENT OUT NOVEMBER 2014 AND THE PART IS STILL UNAVAILABLE. I VISIT THE DEALERSHIP AND THE AUTO REPAIR SHOP STATING THAT NO PARTS HAVE BEEN.SHIPPED TO REPAIR THIS VEHICLE. I WOULD LIKE A FULL REFUND FOR MY DAMAGES, LOSS WAGES AND STRESS. *TR
I HAVE A 2014 DODGE CHARGER SXT WITH THE 3.6 V6 ENGINE AND THE NEW 8 SPEED TRANSMISSION. THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY; WHEN IT IS COLD, THE ENGINE WILL REV-UP BETWEEN SHIFTS, AND IT HAS SEVERE DOWNSHIFTS. WHEN THE TEMPERATURE,(AMBIENT AND VEHICLE), IS NORMAL THE UP-SHIFT PROBLEM GOES AWAY BUT THE DOWNSHIFTING PROBLEM STILL REMAINS,(AT TIMES)! I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK FOR REPAIRS 3 TIMES ,(FOR THIS PROBLEM), AND NOTHING HAS HELPED. THIS IS A VERY NICE VEHICLE AND I WANT TO BE ABLE TO KEEP IT AND ENJOY IT , BUT THIS PROBLEM IS SURE RUINING AN OTHERWISE NICE VEHICLE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THIS TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN VERY TROUBLESOME SINCE IT`S INTRODUCTION AND I AM WONDERING IF A RECALL IS PENDING?? IF NOT, IT SHOULD BE!!!!!!! THE LAST TIME I LET THE VEHICLE WITH MY DEALER , THEY SAID THAT THEY "COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM", EVEN THOUGH THE TECHNICIAN THAT ALWAYS WORKS ON MY VEHICLES, ADMITS THAT HE HEARD AND FELT THE PROBLEMS THAT I DESCRIBE. I MADE A COMPLAINT TO CHRYSLER AND THEY BASICALLY TOLD ME TO GET LOST ! THEY SAID THAT THE SERVICE MANAGER, (AT THE DEALERSHIP), SAID THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE, THAT IS THE WAY THIS TRANSMISSION IS SUPPOSED TO OPERATE !!!!!!! UNBELIEVABLE !!!!! *TR

EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE MY 2005 DODGE RAM 2500 FRONT END WILL SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND JUST ABOUT CAUSE ME TO CRASH WHILE DRIVING A VARIOUS SPEEDS. I'VE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAVE REPLACED THE STEERING DAMPENER SEVERAL TIMES YET IT STILL HAS THE PROBLEM. I STARTED RESEARCHING IT ON THE INTERNET AND THERE IS A LOT OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME EXACT THING. IT IS DESCRIBED AS THE SHAKE OF DEATH OR DEATH WOBBLE. THERE IS NO FACTORY RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT ARE OPTIONS FOR REPLACING FRONT END PARTS FOR ABOUT $500-800 DOLLARS. SOMEONE SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS AS PEOPLE MAY HAVE DIED BECAUSE OF IT. ESPECIALLY IF IT HAPPENS AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 DODGE JOURNEY WHICH CAME EQUIPPED WITH A TIRE JACK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE A TIRE, THE CAR JACK FAILED AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO FALL BEFORE THE TIRE COULD BE INSTALLED. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE BUT DENIED ANY ASSISTANCE TO THE CONTACT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE CONTACT WAS UNAWARE IF THE VEHICLE SUSTAINED ANY DAMAGES. THE FAILURE AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 38,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.
2010 DODGE CHARGER HAD REPAIRS DONE AT DARCARS OF NEW CARROLLTON AND PRECISION ENGINE MACHINE COMPANY FROM 12/05/2011 TO 01/03/2012 AND NOW 01/11/2012 TO PRESENT. *TR
BRAKING SYSTEM OF 2009 DODGE JOURNEY IS DEFECTIVE, REPLACED ONCE AND REPLACING AGAIN AS ROTORS ARE WARPING DUE TO THIN MATERIAL. IF I DO NOT PAY TO REPLACE THE ROTORS, I WILL CERTAINLY LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE IF I NEED TO MAKE IMMEDIATE STOP BECAUSE THE VEHICLE SHAKES VIOLENTLY WHEN BRAKING. DODGE IS MAKING NO EFFORT TO RECALL OR REPAIR THE FAULTY ROTORS AND THERE IS NO OTHER MANUFACTURER THAT MAKES ROTORS FOR THIS VEHICLE. *KB
OVERHEATING. I HAVE HAD A NEW RADIATOR PUT IN. 2 NEW THERMOSTATS, COOLING SYSTEM FLUSHED TWICE, NEW RADIATOR CAP, NEW TOP AND BOTTOM RADIATOR HOSE, AND MY CAR STILL OVERHEATS. I BOUGHT THIS CAR THINKING IT WOULD BE A GOOD CAR. BUT I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE AT ALL. *TT

I HAD PARKED MY 2007 DODGE CHARGER R/T, AND LATER THAT NIGHT ABOUT TO LEAVE FOR WORK MY GEAR SHIFT WAS STUCK IN PARK. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING TO GET IT UNSTUCK WITH NO LUCK.

THERE HAVE BEEN HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS AND YET NO ONE HAS HELPED US. *TR
