In March of 2016 I was in a home depot parking lot, turned my vehicle on, and placed the vehicle in drive. I maintained my foot on the break and did not release. I then released the break and the vehicle began to accelerate very fast without pushing the accelerator, almost colliding into a family of 5 walking through the parking lot. Even after pushing on the break the vehicle kept accelerating until I moved the vehicle to the neutral position. The vehicle then kept accelerating until approximately 7000 RPM's then stopped. I took the vehicle to the Dodge dealership where the mechanic told me the car also accelerated on him even though he did not push on the accelerator.

My car has stalled while I am driving on public roads. After taking it into the dealership, they said there is nothing that they could do. It has now happened 4 times. The first time I was pulling out of my high school parking lot going about 10-15 mph. The second time was pulling out of the dealership servicing department going about 35 mph. The third time was in my driveway while going about 5 mph. The last time was on a straight away going about 45 mph the steering and brakes locked up and I had to forcibly turn the steering wheel to get the car to the shoulder. The car has also ben in the shop numerous times due to issues with the tire pressure sensors, the central computer, and the display screen. Overall, the car has over 30 pages of service done on it, ranging form 2,600 miles to 37,000 miles. I just was informed by the Chrysler resolution team that my car will not be bought back or no compensation will be given. I cannot drive the car, because it is unsafe to be N the road for myself and those on the road with me. If the car were to stall on the freeway, I could be killed or seriously injured.

Takata recall, my 2013 Dodge Dart is part of the 15V-800 NHTSA recall. I received notification that my vehicle was affected by the recall. I received notification at the beginning of 2015, I believe, that the recall had occurred. I took my vehicle to the dealership and was told that they do not have the current part to fix the issue and they would contact me. I went in several months later and was advised of the same issue. In June of 2016, the gauges flickered but the vehicle turned on. Later on that day the vehicle did not turn on and the battery was dead. I replaced the battery. I went in for my regular oil change in December of 2016 and was advised that they do not have the part to fix the issue at the moment and would contact me. I informed them that this is the second time that this occurred. The dealership stated that I could not get the oil change unless I was able to keep the vehicle there to fix the issue. I inquired about getting a rental due to the fact of me not knowing how long the vehicle would remain at the dealership. I was informed that the dealership does not provide rental vehicles. Yesterday, I contacted the dealership to schedule an oil change and maintenance on the vehicle to have the recall resolved. I was informed that it is on a first come first serve basis. I went to turn on my vehicle and the battery was once again drained. I do not understand how a dealership can tell its customers that they do not issue rental vehicles when it is part of a nationwide safety recall. The dealership blatantly disregarded the my safety.

I was coming home from church when my car stop and shut off all so I went to restart the car and it wouldn't. I notice smoke coming from underneath my hood so I popped the hood to see what was going on. When I went to open the hood I notice fire coming from underneath my hood so I ran to the corner and called the police which actually transfer me to the fire department. The fire department came and put out and the police officer took a police report. Report number is JA125391 and I only had 37,000 miles

I started having issues with my Dart 2 years after I bought it, tcm lost communication while traveling 70+ mph down highway had to tow car. Had tcm flashed(repair 1), drove 2-3K mile more, happened again, brought it to a different dealership said they replaced tcm (repair 2, before tcm recall was issued.) about 10K miles later had to bring it back, had tcm flashed again (repair 3), about 10K miles later tcm has problem again while traveling 40+ miles down a very busy city street and need to tow vehicle, this new dealership replaced tcm again (repair 4 after tcm recall is issued, 4K miles later car is now throwing check engine lights for BCM, and PCM which I am told is connected to the tcm. I am in the process of filing a lemon law claim against Chrysler, a three year old car that I paid almost $30,000 should not cause so much stress. I cannot allow my family to be in danger, I have been lucky that neither issue resulted in a car accident. Chrysler needs to buy my vehicle back. I do not wish to talk to them about servicing the vehicle again, or trading them for a newer vehicle as they have lost my trust as a company.

"dode Dart recall" I received a postage a few months ago about a recall for my Dart, everytime I have tried to contact Allstar about the recall they have informed me that the parts have yet to arrive., I have had my car a year and a half. Currently everytime I start my car it is saying service transmission on the dash. On several ocassions the car has automatically went into the neural shift, while driving causing me to completly stop in the middle of traffic!!!!!I have almost been into about 4 accidents because of the glitch with my transmission, the air also will work and blow out hot air on one side. Everytime I stop at a stop sign the car struggles to pull off causing my car to jerk tremendously I am destined to get this issued resolved. Allstar still have not contacted me back about the recall, I need my car fixed asap.

Right now I have issues with my evap system, transmission and engine. With the evap system I am not sure what is going on with it and I have replaced the gas cap as the system stated and I still have the issue. The engine issue now is that the car is very hesitant than from before. Especially in first gear. I have to rev the engine to get going sometimes. I almost was involved in an accident. Now the clutch goes to the floor with little resistance or sticks to the floor when I am on the road for a while or when it has been sitting for a while. I have had this car for a year and few months and it just gets worse. I really believe that this car is unsafe.

I have had my 2013 Dodge Dart only 2 years and am so frustrated with the purchase. It has been in the shop several times with multiple issues. Just yesterday I had to put it in the the shop to have the navigation system fixed. The dealership stated there was not a problem that I needed to subscribe to the navigation service. Are they kidding me, I called Chrysler and they said it was a faulty unit, due to the fact it goes completely out with a white screen and it just does not work. The check engine light comes on constantly, the engine is running rough. I have already had to replace the battery at my cost of $150 not happy about that one. The speedometer is incorrect, the interior light rattles and drives me crazy on long trips. I have had to taken it in for several front end alignments at my cost. It just will not stay aligned, its so frustrating and costly. But the real scary item is when it felt like I was in neutral while driving and had low to no engine power while driving, I slowly pulled over to the side of the ride and turned the key off and the engine was still going, I took the key out of the ignition and it was still cranked. I am praying that they get these cars off the road and put them in a buy back program because they are a danger to the public. I am so upset and disappointed with my Dodge that I will not purchase another.

The car won't start. Battery is completly dead. Won't even charge. (that's not the big deal) the big deal is when I try to reverse it's like it doesn't want to get in gear. Then whole car shakes, and then it feels like the transmission stops and is about to drop. Gear shift lights all turn red. Have to start car and turn back on to get it to go to normal. Engine light comes on too. Then eventually turns off.

Problems since day 1 with my 2013 Dodge Dart. The clutch would stick in and I would have to pop it up with my foot. I would take my car in and even left it for a couple days and they just told me they couldn't reproduce the problem. And the "specialist" said what I was telling them about the clutch was impossible! so I started videoing and posting my clutch issues on youtube. The radio switches stations by itself, it goes off or won't come on. I've had the radio replaced and it still does the same thing! I've had battery issues with the battery draining and ultimately being replaced. The cruise control works about half the time. Dealership ended up replacing the clutch, had my car back 2 days and the clutch went out again. June 11th 2015 took my car in immediately when the rear brake started sticking. They had my car two days and said they adjusted the brake but couldn't reproduce the sound I heard coming from my rear passenger tire. So two weeks go by and I take my car back again demanding they take another look at it. By now the right rear caliber is stuck in and has ruined my rotor and brake pad. Later my car starts spitting and sputtering. Take it to the dealership and they said the only thing they could find wrong is the air flow pipe to the turbo was loose and they tightened it. I decided to go to a new mechanic, he said one of my ignition coils blew. 8 months later my car starts doing the same thing and my mechanic says another ignition coil blew. And he cannot get one for my exact car because they are all on back order with Dodge! he also informs me that there are 3 computers in my car and they are not talking to each other. It took them a while to figure out it was the ignition coil because the computer did not alert that to their tester. Now my check engine light is on again and after 3 technicians looked at my car they said I need a new turbo.

When I am putting my car in gear I have my foot on the brake and the car accelerates at full speed while my foot is still on the brakes. I can also be at a stop light and the car will accelerate at full speed while stationary. My reverse also doesn't go backwards at a normal speed, it also stalls as I am attempting to reverse.
