I was driving to work and not even a mile from my house when i was coming to a stop at a stop sign my 2014 dodge dart sxt stalled. when it stalled the battery light came on and i shut it off. i was able to get it to start the next try. then 7 days later, i was driving no more than 30 seconds when i was coming to a stop at another stop sign and the car stalled again with the battery light coming on. i tried to start it again a few times but was not successful. i needed a jump. i drove it straight to a mechanic who ran a few tests on the car including checking the battery and charging system. he said everything looked good which i figured since i just changed the battery a year ago. i drove it home. 2 days later i was two blocks from my house when it stalled for a third time (mind you this has never happened before these occurrences). again, i was coming to a stop and the car stalled, the battery light came on, and i needed to have a jump since i couldn't get it to start. after researching a bit, this seems to be a very common issue. a few people said that changing the oil or adding more did the trick so i checked my oil and it was fine plus i changed the oil 3 months ago so it isn't that. most cases mentioned that this started to occur around the 50,000 mile mark, which is about where mine is. there really should be a recall on this car ' it's a death trap! when the car stalls the power steering goes out as well so if this happened on the highway it would be very dangerous. this issue could really hurt someone and dodge really needs to do something about it or find a solution. i took my car to the dealership in jenkintown, pa to get looked at and was informed of a few recalls but none that had to do with my issues. the fact that this is clearly a common issue is very concerning especially since there seems to be no clear solution.
Car not running properly or even functioning due to an issue with the body control module. running rough, screen to gps blacking out. no ability to even turn the heat off/on when malfunctioning. these are all things that occur either when idling or the car is in motion.
When putting the car in park, the car doesn't turn off. we brought it to the dealer to get a recall done, but the problem was never fixed. i think dodge just sent the notice and lied about how to fix the problem. the dealer, suresky, wanted to charge to have the diagnostics done on the car, but since the recall was never fixed, i don't want to pay for the diagnostics. the same problem still exists.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 dodge dart. while driving approximately 25 mph and depressing the clutch pedal to switch gears, the clutch pedal traveled to the floorboard and did not raise back up. there were no warning indicators illuminated. the vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. the vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 112,687.
I purchased my vehicle in july of 2014. in march of 2017, i was driving home from a trip out of town, when the vehicle lost the means to accelerate. the car would only rev, and not engage in any gear. i coasted into a gas station, where i had to wait for a tow truck to transport the car to the dealer. i was informed that the clutch master cylinder, reservoir, and clutch kit all had to be replaced, to the tune of > $2000. i escalated to fca under the x62 tsb, and my repairs, and a rental were provided. now yesterday, 9/9/19 at 9:00am, my clutch is coming disengaged while accelerating, in all 6 gears, 15-65 mph and i drove it straight to the dealer. i was informed that the warranty period on the previous repair expired 4 months ago. i was also informed that the parts which failed previously were replaced with original parts, which would lead to additional failure. in doing my own research, the 2014 dodge dart manual transmissions are equipped with a clutch delay valve. the intention of the cdv is to help inexperienced drivers, but in reality is makes launching jerky, quick shifting difficult, and premature clutch wear a real possibility.
My vehicle has a manual transmission, a couple of weeks ago without any warning while i was driving on the highway doing about 60-65 miles per hour, my clutch dropped to the floor and i started smelling my clutch burning. i did not have my foot on the clutch because i was already in sixth gear on the highway. my engine started bogging down and luckily i was near an off ramp and was able to safely get off the highway. i wasn't able to shift into any gear, my engine wouldn't even stay on it kept stalling. its been almost three weeks now and no one is giving my any answers as to what is going on, all i am being told is that the failure was due to my driving. my car has a little over 43,000 miles, nothing more and my clutch is now in pieces. some of my clutch is permanently on my flywheel now. i have been driving a manual transmission for over nine years and had driven several vehicles and have never burnt out my clutch. my warranty through car max will not cover it, no one wants to even look at my issue because all they hear is clutch failure and its automatically my fault.

It started back in april. my car wouldn't go into reverse. it started flashing the r on the dash then next to the gear shift. i took it into the shop. it then started not going into reverse or drive. not only would the lights flash at me but it would say place vehicle into neutral then drive or reverse. it ended up towed once because t wouldn't go anywhere. the service engine light popped up. it said all my gears were not found. it has been in and out of the shop 7 times for this same reason. it won't reverse and/or won't go into drive. the gear shift also popped into park going down the interstate. most recently i had a collision where it was suppose to be in reverse and ended up going forward and hitting a parked vehicle. my vehicle is still not fixed and i owe money on it. my brakes haven't been working correctly and i know they are still good because my mechanic dad and boyfriend have checked them. the cruise will go off randomly and the touch screen goes white, black and back on. there is an open recall with no remedy. i do not feel like this is the cause. also, i am having problems getting the ignition to release my key. dodge hired an investigator. it took my car being hit before they decided to take action. i feel like i'm driving a death trap that i can't get out of and usually have one to 3 kids in my car. i'd rather not have a serious accident because this car is a piece of (xxx).
In short i paid out of pocket and submitted work order and paid receipt three times. repair was done in june and they said they'd get back to me in august. all i'm getting is run around, i've been more than patient.. thank you
When i put my car in park and turn the key left to turn off car, it won't let me. so i have to restart my car move the gears from park to another and then back to park, wait for the click noise and then turn my car off.
Car will not go into park when trying to park. car says not i. park and will not turn off
2014 dodge dart. consumer writes seeking reimbursement for repairs made related to a safety recall 19v-293. *ld *js *js
I have been having difficulty shifting gears after the car has warmed up. this has been going on for about 2 months now.it has gotten so bad this past week that it almost left me stranded 40 miles from home when i had stopped for fuel. i had put it in neutral with the emergency break on, and it just would not go into any gear when i tried to leave.after cooling for about 20 minutes, i finally managed to catch a gear and go. sometimes, it will slip out of first or second gear into neutral, while in motion. this morning my husband attempted to move it into the garage due to a storm approaching and he could not get it into any gear and the clutch stuck to the floor. we have not driven it since yesterday, so it wasn't even warm. my husband and i pushed it into the garage.
Care starts overheating while the coolant is full and all other components are working. i have taken my vehicle to be repaired multiple times for the overheating and there is no sign of damage to be repaired. also occasionally the oil seems to disappear from the engine with no leak or visible damage.. car will occasionally stall out as well while i am driving. the car is in the shop and no one can tell me what is wrong with it. i have been driving 3 times and the car will turn off which is dangerous. the drive is extremely rough and is very uncomfortable it bangs really loud with any small bump. car has a bunch of flaws and i have had it less than 2 years.

2014 dodge dart recall unable to shift gears. chrysler advised that the remedy date is 8/8/2019. too long to be without a car. they state they will reimburse rental but not pay upfront for one. this is too long to be without my only vehicle.
On april 17, 2019, when arriving at destination, i attempted to shift gears into park. however, gears shifted into reverse permanently. i called my siblings to assist with getting the car out of reverse, the handle would move but the gears would not change. the only way we could get the car to stop was with the emergency break. we turned off the ignition, but all lights stayed on and we could not remove the key from the ignition. the only way to get the key out was to unhook the battery. i contacted the manufacturer the following day on april 18th, and they advised of a recall for shift cable bushing. i asked how long the process would take, they stated they would mail a letter to advise how to set up appointment, they would have to order parts. i called back on april 25th to inquire once again about how long the process usually takes, and they did not advise of a time frame. i advised the representative that my car cannot be driven at all, and asked if i were to get a rental car or get my car fixed myself would i be reimbursed. the representative advised that there is no guarantee. i've contacted the manufacturer once again on may 8, 2019. representative advised that the part has still not been ordered and there is no estimated time.

The basic of the issue are shifting roughly, over-revving before shifting, failing to shift, making a grinding noise on take off, running rough, exhibiting a burning smell, smoking and overheating. dash light comes on randomly when in traffic on my commute home from work "transmission getting hot press brake" and the car will start to smoke.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 dodge dart. while attempting to park the vehicle, it failed to shift into park. the contact called clay cooley chrysler dodge (1261 e airport fwy, irving, tx 75062) and was advised to tow the vehicle to their facility. the vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. two days later, the vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the shifter fractured and needed replacement. the contact also received a recall notice for nhtsa campaign number: 19v293000 (power train), but parts were not available to perform the recall repair. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 86,000. vin tool confirms parts not available.
I allowed my car to warm up at home for 10-15 mins and then went a mile to return something to the store left my car running until i got back and i went to put it in drive and it wouldn't go anywhere, so it told me to put it in nuterul and then put it back in drive and so i did just that and it still wasn't going anywhere. so i continued to try and put it in drive until it told me to service the transmission and so after about 10 mins it finally went into drive and so i started to leave and it wouldn't get out of first gear the whole way for 7 miles and so i called the dodge dealership and they told me to bring it in and so i drove 8 more miles to get my dodge dart areo looked at and they said that when the cars are cold the cars computer won't register the cars transmission's codes and said it was fine now but i personally don't believe it.
Issue began to occur where car will lose acceleration and must be turned off in order to work again. it has happened about six times now where the car must be pulled to the side of the road (if possible) and restarted. during restart, the engine hesitates/sputters for about 5 seconds before returning to seemingly normal operation. at no other time does the car act like this. normally it will have no problems starting up. just last night, i went to leave and was unable to take the car out of park. after a quick search i found that the car may have a loose or bad shifting cable. another issue that seems to be reoccurring in these cars. my 14 gt has 64k miles and has always recieved routine maintenance.
The entire car is shaking. the car is rough idling. i had my foot all the way on the gas and it wouldn't go above10 miles per hour. this happened before and the dealership fixed it and said the cylinders were misfiring
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 dodge dart. while driving approximately 35 mph, the vehicle suddenly stopped accelerating while the accelerator pedal was depressed. the driver discovered that the transmission shifter had erroneously switched from the drive position into neutral. the contact indicated that the failure occurred on two separate occasions. also, while driving approximately 65 mph, the vehicle suddenly stalled. the vehicle was towed from the scene. the failures were not diagnosed or repaired. the local dealer (frank fletcher dodge, 5922 warden rd, sherwood, ar) and the manufacturer were notified of the failures. the failure mileage was 99,000.
Upon first driving every time it deceleration and it a complete stop the car shifts into neutral and powers down. this has happened ten days in a row.
It became more consistent in 2017, my car would stall driving it anywhere from 25 mph -75 mph, some days the steering wheel would lock and the car would turn off and i'd have to wait until it was ready to be back on, just recently multiple times i have had my car turn completely off going 75mph, the dashboard turns off the steering wheel locks and the car shuts off, some times it turns off for not even a minute before it turns back on. other times i've put my car on cruise control and it's turned off minutes after being set. was told to change the oil more often which i did at maximum of 3000 miles, on a 2014?! this time (its been several several times already) my car turned off and wouldn't turn back on, tried jump starting it for almost 3 hours and it did nothing to the car, the car didn't budge. the dashboard would flicker on and off and all the switches would go crazy including my windshield wipers that weren't event on in the first place. used a car battery charger to see if it helped at all, 12 hours later still nothing. i have a two year old and this car is way to dangerous for me to feel safe in!!
As driving down the road after about a mile from home my car would no longer move but glide along. the engine was shut off and i had no control over speed. you can step on the gas and it will not move. rpm's drop and the motor turns off in drive. after this happens the car hesitates to start but will. there is no check engine light on and all statistics for the car were as they should be. the battery is showing correct voltage. the cause is unknown.
If i brake within 5 minutes of starting my vehicle, the next time i brake all of the dashboard lights will flash on, the battery light will stay on, and the car will stall. after waiting 5 to 10 minutes the car will start again. this happens within a week of when my car needs an oil change. this happened 10/24/2017, 10/25/2017, and 5/17/2018.
This is the third time this has happened. the engine will stall randomly while driving. the same issue happened again today. this has happened to a lot of people, but still no recalls. this is extremely dangerous. when the engine stalls, you loose power steering and brakes. this can cause a major accident. luckily, it's only happened on low rpm. this issue needs to be looked into and fixed.
2014 dodge dart aero approx. 59700 miles, automatic transmission transmission will shift into neutral. large clicking noise from left under hood. at times will loose gear, specific to first and reverse. burning smell. can reset, with a standard obdii but will not last long. this is not a recall vin but this car is very unsafe to drive with its constant transmission shifting, loss of power and potential road hazard. there needs to be an immediate recall based on potential life threatening accident.
After tcm replacement that was under recall, tcm is still failing causing vehicle to not shift into gear. several attempts have been made to correct the issue with dodge, however they refuse to do anything to remedy the problem
While driving the vehicle the car tries to shift to neutral. it seems to be a problem with the tcm. there is a recall for the tcm but it does not cover my vin number.
My vehicle unexpectedly loses power while driving as if it has shifted into neutral. this typically happens on city streets before i make it to the highway. it usually happens as i'm slowing down. my local dealership told me it was a battery problem in sept. 2017 and i paid over $600 to haven them replace the battery, which resolved the issue until now. there is a recall r42 for this very issue, however it doesn't apply to my vin number. the description of the recall fits exactly what i am experiencing.
The car will startle when shifting gears until one day it just stopped responding whenever i stepped on the accelerator. it will only drive no more than 5 miles an hour, making horrible noises and smelling burnt. i had to stop and pull to the side as i was driving.iit was so scary because i had my daughter with me and was in a high traffic street.
The car loses power and shuts off. the oil has to be topped off every 60 to 90 days or the car will not run or will shut down while driving on the expressway. when the vehicle comes to a stop, it may may not start at all. over the past year, i have had to have it towed 4 times. the last tow to the dealership cost over $500.00 for parts relative to the transmission.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 dodge dart. while driving approximately 50 mph, the transmission erroneously switched to the neutral position before the vehicle shut off. after restarting the vehicle, the check engine indicator remained illuminated. the contact indicated that the failure occurred on multiple occasions. the cause of the failure was not diagnosed or repaired. the local dealer (cowboys chrysler in shelby, texas) was notified of the failure, but the manufacturer was not notified. the failure mileage was 71,000.
My car doesn't seem to shift properly. it runs rough loses power then smell of something burning. while in motion car loses power n shifts late. when at a stop in drive thru put in park begins to idle n get hot.
When my car in the winter time warms up the fan doesn't work unless i open up my engine hood and it cools down now this can be anywhere from 2 minutes me running my car attendance doesn't matter when i turn on the air-conditioning it shakes my whole car i am told it is nothing i don't believe it my transmission when i press on the gas because very slow and jerks a whole car and emotion i told them about this since i had the car and my brakes on the first car that i had my brakes went out and it after i kept complaining about it for six weeks and then they traded me for the 2014 dodge dart my car has 22500 miles on it none of this should be happening when i take it to my dodge dealership they think that it's nothing in pretty much tell me i got what i paid for i'd like to know if there's been other complaints about the engine transmission and the brakes not to mention a whole lot of other things that i don't even want to go into it says below to put down a date i'm going to put down a date for this is just an ongoing thing always

Tl* the contact owns a 2014 dodge dart. while parking, the vehicle failed to shift into park. the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the gear shift cable needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired. the local dealer was not contacted. the manufacturer was notified of the failure, but did not offer any assistance. the failure mileage was 31,716. ... .updated 11/16/17 *bf the consumer stated the vehicle was repaired. updated 11/30/2017*js
Parked in my driveway, i started the car reversed out of the drive way and the gear shifter is now stuck in reverse, all i can do is apply my emergency brake because i can't shift the gear up or down therefore i can't remove my ignition key either. had to have it towed to dealer
My vehicle has stopped on two occasions while i was driving it. this is very dangerous and is an obvious safety concern. when i pulled out the oil stick there was absolutely no oil. this happened the second time as well. i took it into the dealership and did an oil consumption test. the oil went down about half a quart in 1000 miles. they sent me away and said that this was acceptable.the engine only holds about four quarts this is ridiculous and i will never make it into my next oil change without the car shutting off. the car shuts off due to a safety reaction to stop the engine from being damaged due to low oil. i have not made it to my oil change since i have been refilling the oil. dodge's guidelines say it is "acceptable" for the 2.4 engine to burn 1 quart every 750 miles. that is all the engine oil in the engine since it only holds 4 quarts every 3,000 miles. my oil change won't be due any time close to then. please do something about this. there are countless complains and threads of citizens with this safety concern. i am worried of when the car will stop on me again.
Clutch pedal will stick on the floor not allowing me to put the car in gear, change gears, or pull out of gear to stop without pushing through the brakes. it happens in the morning especially after sitting all night. also, i have experienced it on the highway during a long trip while staying in gear for a few hours.
The motor has had an oil leak that started at 3000 miles and they have not been able to resolve. i am worried that this might lead to an enine fire. i have had it at the dealer several times for this problem and it keeps happening. with the powertrain the vehicle will not move then surges forward. this started around the 5000 mile mark and continues to happen. it acts like the clutch slips but i have had it in the shop several times and every time i am told nothing is wrong. this issue is dangerous when sitting in traffice or taking off from a dead stop becaue the car does not want to move at first and then when it does lunge forward it is not controlable how far it will actuall go.
Engine stalls out and completely dies. this has happened to me several times already with my six year old in the car. i haven't taken it to the dealership twice already and this will be the third final attempt for repair. i've brought a new battery even after it passed successful testing, and the alternator passed as well. the first time it stopped on me i was on the highway (had the car toll to the nearest autozone for a new battery) had the dealership look at it they stated they could not diagnose the problem since the vehicle was working and could not find anything wrong with the car, 2nd time it stopped two days later on the interstate had the car (this time i had it toll to the dealership) and they put in the work order what i stated did nothing to the engine and only completed the recall on the brakes. the third time it stopped on me while driving was on the highway oct. 2017 had to get a jump and he kept stalling out before it completely stopped this time i contacted dodge roadside assistance to toll me to the nearest dealership for documentation. i have open a case with chrysler corporation and feel like i'm getting no where, and the dealership has not even bother to contact me. i'm going through all of this when the car is only 3 years old with 48,000 miles still covered under warranty. all the times i vehicle has stopped on me on dark roads, in traffic, on the instate my daughter has been in the car with me. this car is a danger to me, my, family, and anyone else on the road if i drive this car. for now it continues to be at the dealership while i drive the loaner car they gave me. but i'm still having to make car payments on a vehicle i'm not even driving.
Loud humming from the front wheel while making a long turn on the highway to the right. brought it into the dealer of purchase, they found out it was the rear wheel bearing, a day later i'm still experiencing the same issues with improved sound reduction from the rear, so the rear was fixed now i'm having the front wheel bearing replaced.
