CarComplaints.com Notes: The first year of the new Dodge Dart had a rough start, with owners reporting a disproportionate number of engine and transmission problems.

For transmission, the main complaints are transmission failure & rough shifting. So far, average mileage for transmission failure is 25,000 miles. Not good.

For engine problems, it usually starts with the engine light coming on for any number of reasons: bad sensors, ignition coil replacement, bad wiring, faulty gas cap ... dealers are replacing various components with varying degrees of success, or telling owners they can't duplicate the issue.

control panel won't work except for regular speedometer

I have been sick of being told not sure what is wrong or I have to go somewhere else because they don't have the right technician to take care of my car. 😠😤 I will be going to an actual Dodge Dealership here soon, cause the one I bought it from is over an hour away from me. And this one is in town. If I get any answers to the issues I will let you all know.

Dart Limited

  • Automatic transmission
  • 8,100 miles

manual gauges inaccurate, sensors going off

I am currently waiting for a cluster to be sent by Chrysler. It has been 47 days of waiting. The dealership claims to be trying but Chrysler does not want to send the part. This has been incredibly frustrating and I do not know what to do.
