The battery has to be replaced every year. The brakes are hard and has a vacuum leak noise. The radio, cd, bluetooth does not work. The cruise control does not work all the time and when it does it will stick on. The buttons on the steering wheel does not work all the time. The front 12V DC does not work. Dodge will not fix it because the warranty is gone, but these problems have been going on since I bought it in 2012. Is there some way I can get Dodge to fix these problems without having to pay. There is a lot of Dodge Dart owners with the same problems and Dodge won't recall or fix the problems.

This car has gone through cylinders, spark plugs, 3 batteries including the factory one, throttle control computer all in less than 50K miles. Never gets more than 10K miles before there is another issue, quite possible the worst vehicle I have ever purchased and there's no doubt in my mind after reading forum after forum of the exact same issues experienced by hundreds if not thousands of other owners and dealer responses that there was good reason to discontinue the production of this model and the model years thereafter. Unfortunately, we are all stuck with payments on cars that put us at significant safety risk because of frequent and random stall outs, including one that happened to myself at highway speed, and another on a dark desolate country road, and fca won't do anything about it other than offer a 5% discount on a brand new vehicle, for which comparable size and price no longer exists within the brand. This car is the definition of a lemon, we bought it certified used from Dodge after the car had a single owner and with neither the dealership nor the brand offering any sort of significant assistance in remedying this product defect other than repairs within warranty that keep us on the road for another month before the next breakdown, we are forced to pay for and drive a vehicle that puts our family at risk even more than in general. Unbelievable.

Have had to replace battery twice in four years and now none of the electronics are working in the interior of my car. It was bought brand with no other owner! this is very costly and unfair to be a new vehicle.

Takata recall: There has been multiple issues with this car including loss of power, rapid shifting, transmission failure, stalling, and overheating. The check engine light and transmission light have come on multiple times, the tcs and passenger airbag lights have come on and off at the same time. This car has had 2 PCM's replaced, 4 tcm's replaced, 2 transmissions (the last one replaced less than one week ago), 2 sets of spark plugs and coils replaced, timing belt, serpentine, and water pump replaced. The transmission, serpentine, timing belt, and water pump were all replaced on 7/21/17 and now the car is presenting with the same issues. These problems started with the first owner (and were not reported to me) on 8/6/13 and started with me on 4/16/15. As of 8/2/17 I have the same whining noise in the car (which has been diagnosed as the transmission multiple times now), the transmission is unable to shift or lags or shifts too quickly, I can floor the gas peddle and the car will not accelerate, when I let off the brake the car surges forward, the check engine light is back on, and the cruise control is not functional. This car has been in the shop more than I have driven it and Dodge keeps repairing it and those repairs last less that one month and the same problem happens again and again. This car is unsafe to drive and Dodge has yet to remedy the situation. The car is set to be back in the shop this week and it is currently not drivable and a hazard to myself and others on the road. I would not be able to accelerate to move out of the way of anyone or anything due to the transmission and issues with this vehicle.

Intermittent battery light coming on and off. I am on battery number three and my second alternator and nobody can tell me what is wrong with it. As I was driving, the battery light came on, then the service ABS, then the ac went off, and then the service power steering came on. This caused me to lose my power steering while traveling on the highway. I have had multiple diagnostics, all stating that the battery was testing fine, along with the alternator and starter. After installing a new battery and alternator, battery light still intermittently comes on. When the light is on, the alternator is reading around 6V and when it is off, it is reading between 13-14V. Whenever the light comes on, there is the sound of a relay or something happening. Not sure what else to do. The vehicle is 4 years old and I am scared to drive it anywhere or have my children in it. I have looked online and numerous people are complaining about the intermittent battery light and issues associated, so I do not think that there is wiring damage to every single one of these vehicles.

"engage parking brake to prevent rolling" alert comes on after about 10-15 minutes of driving and coming to a complete stop. The alert subsequently comes on every time the car stops after this initial phase. On occasional, when the car comes to a complete stop and is put into "park" and the alert comes on, it will not shift into any other gear. To correct this issue the car must be turned off and allowed to sit for at least 10-15 seconds, restarted, and will then allow you to shift to another gear. The alert will then again come on whenever the car is brought to a complete stop.

While driving, experiencing intermittent issues with low power during acceleration, back firing, misfiring, check engine light & traction control comes on, stays on. Cruise control will not work when this happens. After a few days, corrects itself and is ok for a day or so but continues again. Very concerning in traffic. Clutch went all the way to floor, took to dealership and so far not reoccurring (recall). Electrical issue, possible something staying open, draining battery. After sitting all day, car would not unlock, had to enter car with actual manual unlock. Upon opening, the dash lights were all flashing, the display screen was flashing unreadable images. All instrument panel lights came on, stayed on. When door shut, panel lights went off and the fuel and speedometer gauges starting jumping, opened the door, gauges stopped and lights came on. Wiper blades activated on their own, very slowly. Could not unlock any door or open trunk during this time. Jumped the car, started very quickly. Will need to replace the battery as it is not charging fully. Rear brakes are not wearing properly.. car mileage 35,500.. very unhappy with this car's performance.

There was already a recall on my vehicle. Then I have had two brand new starters put into my car at the Chrysler dealership and both times the starters were burned to a crisp in less than 48 hours. Now I'm having transmission issues and no one knows what's going

A few things has been occurring regarding my car. The first thing is my check engine light has come on several times and when I got it checked, the car wouldn't start right at the dealership. The dealership was finally able to get the car started, however, they reported nothing was wrong with the car. The second thing and most scariest is my brakes. My brakes are totally messed up as they constantly lock and it's hard to press on the breaks. Therefore I do not drive long distances because I am afraid I won't be able to stop in time. I've taken my car to get diagnosed and they told me the my brakes and rotars are severely damaged and infact it won't pass the safety check in the state of NY.

There are two issues that I have returned my vehicle to the dealership for repairs multiple times and paid significantly for the non-repair. The first is the centerstack display. The display will intermittently go blank typically following a left hand turn. The vehicle has been in twice for this condition and still displays the failure. The second is the transmission. Based on a fca recall, the vehicle was taken to the dealership for a transmission reflash! at that point there had never been an issue with the transmission while driving. Since that event however, the vehicle has never performed as expected. The vehicle was returned to the dealership only to learn there was a problem with the transmission module so that was replaced. Unfortunately, the problem is now worse. The vehicle shifts so rough, that it feels like the vehicle could stop at anytime. This is very concerning because I am not comfortable that I can accelerate into traffic which could cause an accident.
