I was driving on the highway at about 55 mph then suddenly my car stalled. My car shut completely off. I saw that there was a recall for this but it was for the smaller engine which does not include my engine. I just took my car to the dealer and he said their was an oil pressure problem which caused the oil housing to leak.

2013 Dodge Avenger heater/defrost not properly working. It has begun to go out one vent at a time leaving only one vent blowing warm air all others blow cold. This is very hazardous when it does not defrost properly and when needing defrost while driving it only makes the windshield visible through the driver side with the heat. We have attempted to fix this issue by changing blend door actuators and flushing the heater core which came out clear.

2013 Dodge Avenger has randomly started honking the horn while stopped and in motion. The honking lasts anywhere from a quick honk to sounding like I am laying on the horn for minutes going down the freeway. I have tried pulling over and restarting the vehicle which did not help or stop the horn. This is very dangerous.

The issue occurs mostly while the vehicle is in motion, but occasionally when it is sitting still and idling. While driving, the car engine will suddenly stall. No warning lights or check engine lights turn on. No codes are found when scanning the obd2. There are no recorded miss fires for any of the cylinders either. This is an especially dangerous situation specifically when driving full speed on major highways or roads. When the engine stalls, power steering cuts out and I have to muscle the car off to the side of the road to put the car in park and start it up again. The engine has stalled while going in reverse, driving forward, and sitting idle. This has happened over a dozen times now.

Twice now I've had to have my heater core replaced as the passenger blows cold air when it should be heat just like the drivers side. This is a known issue by Dodge abd they won't fix the problem or even assist with it.

For the past couple of months my horn goes off on its own. Sometimes it goes off when I lock my car, other times it does not. It will sometimes click, and other times it will blare for 5 seconds. It is very startling especially while driving in traffic or sitting at a stoplight. Once I was driving in the rain, and it went off for about 8 seconds and at the same time my windshield wipers started to stall and not work properly. The horn does not work when I push on it like it should. It is very concerning since it can cause safety issues.

The passenger side heat blows cold air, therefore when trying to defrost my windshield my windshield frosted back up after being scraped of ice and began to spread to the drivers side which made it very difficult to see where I was going and could have caused an accident.

The heater will only come out on the driver side. With the heater on only cold air will come out

Went to the dealership on 12/19/2019 for two recalls on my car. The repair was stated that it would take 2-3 hours but took 5 hours. The next day the car started backing up out of the drive way on its on and now it does not start. Called the dealership to tell them the problem and they stated that I have to find a way to bring the car there and pay for the repair myself. My car was fine before they worked on it.

Car only blows heat on the drivers side

- Allendale, MI, USA

I bought this car brand new in June 2013 and about 3 years after purchasing the heat has gone out but the air works fine in summer, so I've been without heat because I can't afford the repair cost and I will definitely never buy another Dodge on account that after reading that so many other owners have had the very same problem but yet Dodge does not see the need to do a recall on this problem....so the customer service ends after you say I do!

The driver side blows hot air when heater is on, but passenger remains cold. Cannot get passenger side to defrost / defog because of this problem and has been happening since the day it was bought. Even when I was in warranty (bumper to bumper) I still would have to pay to fix it. This happens whether stationary / idle or driving.

- Kaplan, LA, USA

The heat only works on the drivers side the vents on the passenger side still blow air but it is ice cold whether the car is parked or in motion the passenger side does not blow out warm air this is an issues that needs to be recalled.

My car began clicking, approximately 30 seconds at a time, late winter early spring 2018-2019 when the heat was turned on. I came to realize the car did not need to be running for this to happen. During an oil change the following week I was told the clicking had to do with the vents and how common this clicking was and that repair eas not guaranteed. As I am the primary person/occupant in my car, I found out later the heat only produced warm air. This is my 1st time owning a Dodge and everyday my experiences with this car reaffirms I will never own another. I make it a point to tell any and everyone this fact. I have copied some of the complaints logged about this and my other issue, car stalling while turning left to enter the freeway with throttle indicator. I was on the side of the road alone and female until tow arrived at 9pm and the cost for an alternator which after reading this may not be the issue.... had I known how unresponsive Dodge is to their customers by putting their profit over our cost of repairs... again, I tell everyone what they are likely to experience if they purchase the Avenger. The complainants listed here and on other sites very likely agree. Attached pics were time stamped 6.39pm. I sat on the on ramp to the freeway approximately 3 hours.

I was driving my 2013 Dodge Avenger and the horn goes off by itself from 3 seconds to 3 minutes constantly. When I drive the car it cuts off. My car has only 85000 miles and I have read similar complaints regarding this vehicle around that mileage.

For the past year, my car randomly stalls while driving. There is no rhyme or reason for when it stalls, so I never know when it is going to happen. No lights ever appear on the dash. After sitting for a few minutes, my car usually starts back up again. In addition to the engine stalling, the windshield wipers stutter and the car horn randomly sounds from anywhere between a second to a full minute. I'm not sure if the two issues are related at all, but I've taken it to the mechanic several times and gotten various parts replaced to no avail. The problem persists, and no one can figure out what the issue is. After online research, I have found that there are two recalls for 2013 Dodge Avengers for an issue with the engine stalling, but for some reason my 2013 Dodge Avenger is not included--even though it has the same issue as described in the recall. I should not have to say how dangerous it is for one's engine to stall out on a highway. My husband almost got hit by an 18-wheeler as the engine stalled while he was driving in front of it. The steering-wheel locked, but luckily he was able to somehow steer off the road onto the shoulder. It is not safe to drive my car in this condition.

I have a 2013 Dodge Avenger. The issue is that the heat does not operate as expected. Thru hours of research the problem seems to be a faulty heater core. The issue is very common across many Dodge and Chrysler vehicles. The heater cores are defective and even after flushing, replacement and repairs the heater core will not produce heat as necessary. For most people this problem is an inconvenience but more importantly this issue can be hazardous to driving. Truly having optimal heat during winter months is crucial to keeping the windshield clean. Having the necessary heat is the only way in cold weather to keep the windshield from fogging and from being iced over in winter storms. I have experience this and had to pull over and clean my windshield otherwise the driving was dangerous. This problem occurs while driving and even when the vehicle is stationary because no heat comes out on the passenger side interior. This lack of heat caused ice and fog to be an issue on my car in numerous situations over the course of the 2018-2019 winter in Minnesota. I drove on hwy 169 for just 5-20 miles and was forced to pull over due to lack of heat and build up of fog and ice. I am very sure from reading other peoples experiences that other people have the same feelings. As mentioned, this problem is chronic and a simple part replacement wont solve the recurring problem. If there is any way a replacement heater core plus a new type of coolant can be brought forward as a recall fix, that is the only way that the consistent and chronic failure of the heater core can be fixed and lots of people need this. Please help, thank you.

The head gasket failed and was replaced despite protestations from the dealership. I learned the head gasket had a design flaw causing it to fail prematurely. Catalytic converter recalled, dealership advised it was unknown when it would repaired. Recall advised delay could damage engine. Finally repaired after complaint to dealership GM. Vehicle is making noises and losing power suddenly, then sudden increase of RPM while driving. Sudden loss of power could cause crash in traffic, same with sudden RPM increase. Fan wiring harness recalled, dealership advised of failure to fan when taken in for headgasket, nothing done. Multiple complaints made with Dodge hq.
