While driving on an interstate highway the engine RPM increased and the car began to slow down. Moved to the side of the road to be out of traffic. The car would not move with the selector shift in the drive position but would move when manual selected in 1st gear. Recall R42 has been preformed that addressed the shiftier module. Information from the Chrysler dealership service shop stated that the shiftier module would have to be replaced. It appears that this module is a design problem that presents a safety issue while driving as in my case being on an interstate highway at high speed when the car began slowing.

I recently purchased the veh last year 3/2017, just started having clutch stuck to the floor issues recently. Just last week as a matter or fact, 6 days ago today (7/25/2018). Issues began 7/19 as I recall and have a text where I notified my spouse of the issue. The veh gets stuck w clutch to the ground unable to change gears therefor unable to take off, veh is currently parked at starbucks. Called dealership, it has 70100 miles, they said it's out of warranty. Not sure what to do but I have been doing some reading and I am not alone. Many and many other Dodge Dart owners are going and have gone thru same thing. My problem is I am not original owner and seems my warranty expired a few months ago before the issue began. I need direction or advise how to proceed. Dodge was well aware and replaced many master cylinders and are aware of the issue. I am just barely out of warranty and it's the same issue, not sure why it is not covered!!!

I pulled my 2013 Dodge Dart in to a parking spot and went to put it in park but it would not shift, I could not get the key out either, when I went to see what was wrong the transmission link cable was disconnected upon further investigation the pin the connects it fell out the car. I was able to shif the car into drive and take it to the dealership. I see this yet another common issue with this car. And a serious safety issue. Why hasn't Dodge been force to recall this and fox the problems.

Before starting vehicle, clutch pedal goes straight to floor and has to be pulled back up into position. Problem occurs multiple times a week. After clutch is pumped a few times, it regains pressure and is able to be driven. Vehicle has less than 35,000 miles but is over the 5 year warranty. Extended warranty will cover it with a $100 deductible. Dealership advised that I will probably have to pay for a clutch replacement even though there is an extended warranty/ known issue on the master cylinder and hydraulic fluid leaking throughout clutch components. Also had the turbo and exhaust manifold gasket replaced at 20,000 miles after check engine light kept coming on and vehicle lost power. At one point the check engine light came on and the vehicle lost almost all power while trying to merge onto I-95 in Washington DC, almost causing me to be rear ended by another vehicle. It took 4 trips to the dealership for the problem to be recreated and eventually fixed under warranty. The emergency brake stopped working at about 15,000 miles but I was told that my vehicle was not one affected by the caliper recall. Paid for caliper replacement out of pocket. Lots of problems with this car, but dealership keeps telling me they "cannot replicate the issue".

Rolling up to a stop sign and my clutch petal dropped to the floor and stayed there. Could not put it into gear.

Takata recall my car has been saying service transmission at least 2 or 3 times a week and it will happen as I'm driving so it'll say service transmission and then I'll feel like a pull and as I start pressing on the break the engine will rev and then when I park it and turn it off and try turning it back on it won't turn back on for at least a day so it leaves me stranded 2-3 times a week or I've been on the highway and it'll do that and I try to keep going and press on the gas and it won't work it just revs so I'll be going less then speed limit while everyone else goes speed limit and has almost caused me to get in an accident at least twice. It's super dangerous for me to drive this car around and I've taken it to the Dodge dealership and all they have told me was it's a safety feature my car has and they don't know why it's doing that.

Ive had the transmission replace 4 times still doing the same issue. It will give me a signal that the gears are not available at this time and then it would be like the RPM die down to a lower gear. It would then rev high in 1st gear not wanting to go into second but would catch as the RPM goes down. 2 gear would start under the 1000 RPM and struggle to get to the third gear.

I was driving my 2013 Dodge Dart on the highway when all of a sudden it would not go over 45 mph. This has happened before 3 weeks prior, but after turning the car off and back on it went away. I made it to my house pulled into my driveway and went to put it into park, but the gear shift would not go into gear. The key is now stuck in the ignition. I tried disconnecting the battery, but that did nothing. Also the service engine light has constantly been coming on periodically since I've bought the car in 2013. Yet the dealership and 2 other mechanics have never given me a reason why. I called the dealership and they wanted $150 to hook it up to a diagnostic. I do not have it so I'm still trying to figure out what to do.

The 2013 Dodge Dart with the 1.4L turbo engine was a vehicle made that was made in murphy's law (everything that could go wrong, will go wrong). Since purchasing this used vehicle in 2016 with 43,000 miles on the engine I have had multiple occurrences of mechanical problems. The first issue I have had was the turbo. I had to have the turbo replaced under warranty (common issue). Then, multiple instrument gauge failures. Next, several clutch problems (clutch sticking to the floor even when driving). This issue was not fixed as the dealer does not believe this to be an issue. If researched it will show that this is a common problem thousands have with this vehicle. Then, next set of issues began with multiple caliper seizings. The car was taken to a mechanic other than the dealership. They determined that these parts were faulty and suffered from a recall that effected several cars. When calling customer care for Dodge. They refused to do anything because my VIN was not involved with that specific group of cars. I paid for the repair out of pocket and then suffered through two additional caliper failures. All repairs out of my own pocket. This is also another common issue. Now, I am currently going through a valve cover gasket failure on a vehicle that has been maintained at 75,000 miles (common issue). Now that I am out of warranty on a 5 year/100,000 mile warranty. Dodge claims to have started the warranty in 2012 on a 2013 year vehicle. This vehicle should be listed as one of the most dangerous, expensive, and poorly made vehicles to exist. All of these issues have occurred while driving on a highway almost causing me to crash several times. Through Dodge-Dart.org you will see several dangerous and negligible choices made by Fiat Chrysler and how dangerous this car can be to the public. I believe Dodge should offer an extended warranty up to 10 year/200,000 miles.

I parked the car on the side of the street. An hour later, after starting the car and placing the gear in drive, I could not switch gears to reverse or park, and could not shut the car off and remove the key. The gear shift was stuck in drive, and would not disengage even when the battery was disconnected. The car had to be towed. Mobile technician found that the gear shift cable was broken.
