When heat is on, the passenger side blows cold (i live in wi so, when i say cold, i mean cold) air from every blowing port on the passenger side... occurs at all times, whether stationary or in motion. have tried a few things reccomended on multiple other pages by people who are experiencing the same exact issue. no help. the driver side vents do blow warm air but, not close to as hot as it should be. this has been occurring since right around 118,000 miles. i start my car 20 minutes before i leave my house at 5am to bring my young children to daycare and be to work by 6. when getting in after being started for 20 min... barely any difference in temp which, is frustrating when you drive with your babies 35 minutes in the cold cold cold along with several deer and a windshield that won't defrost completely. have purchased the extended warranty from dealer and, somehow (what a shock) there is no help for me as 'the issues being described sound like it was brought on by you, the vehicle owner or, enviorment factors'... it hurts knowing you are a loyal and honest human who works hard every day to barely make ends meet and then... to have your character slandered by the (several thousand dollars extra) lifetime warranty that the salesman so confidently swore by on the day of purchase. owner misuse? there are hundreds and hundreds of people having the exact same issues who own the exact same car... sorry but, safe to say that isn't coincidental. i have children and groceries and gas to get to work and school and life... it may sound ridiculous to some but, the $900-$1600 they are saying it would cost... doesn't come easily for just everyone. i'm just hoping that some people will choose to do the right thing and, stand behind the very words that lead them to where they are currently in life. faith in these humans will hopefully bring appropriate solutions.
Car will not accelerate. ets lights come on. car was in motion on highway.
There is no electrical power going to the passenger side head light on my vehicle. the interior lights flash on and off while the vehicle is in motion.
Heater blows air driver side but cold air on passenger side when heat is on. heater core blockage. also have a clicking noise from the actuator behind the glove compartment
My vehicle stalled, started shaking, shut down and lost power while driving. the following three warning lights came on; 1) malfunction indicator light (mil); 2) electronic throttle control (etc); and 3) electronic stability control (esc). i have noticed that the car seems to stall when i put it in drive and take off is slow. it takes me several blocks to just reach 30 mph. the car also feels as if it is lunging but resumes a slow pace. take off is extremely slow when i stop for traffic lights. the engine seems to lose pressure. the car will rev and accelerate on its own even with the brake pedal being pressed. my car started sputtering in traffic, the car revved up like i was pressing on the gas. then yesterday i experienced immediate loss of power in the vehicle & the inability to increase speed, almost causing me to be involved in an accident. my vehicle slowed to approximately 10 - 20 mph. the manufacturer has not addressed this faulty problem and needs to address immediately!!!!! my life matters and so does everyone else's life and those of their family!!!! what is really upsetting to me is that this is a known problem that has been reported repeatedly by others who have had this situation!!! my life matters and so does everyone else's life and those of their family!!!!
I've had a few issues recently with my 2013 dodge avenger over the past year. when my change oil warning indicator comes on, some of my warning indicator lights randomly come on as well. the first few times my airbag indicator light would come on and stay on. when i took my car for the oil change i asked them check the airbags but there was nothing indicating a problem and once the oil was changed the light would go off and stay off. the next time it was the abs & the tire pressure monitoring system; i got the oil changed they checked, nothing was found again. before this last time, my oil warning came on along with the emergency brake light, as if the brake was up and it stayed on even when i drove, again no problems were found. last night (5/09/18) change oil warning indicator came on. this morning (5/10/18) i started my car (automatic car starter) went out to my car and my tire pressure monitoring system warning light and my electronic throttle control warning light were lit. i tried to turn the car off and back on, however the car wouldn't shut off right away. when i restarted my car the light indicators were gone. but while driving to work if i were to stop at a light or stop sign my car would idle and feel as though it was about to shut down so i had to put it in park while stopped. also when i had to accelerate from the stop if i just drove like normal and took my foot of the brake and push the gas the rpm's would go to 7 then drop and my car would shake. i had to take my foot off the brake carefully then drift, and then press gently on the gas until i was able to pick up speed. this is my only vehicle in which i drive my children, please help!!
Vehicle stalling and shaking, shutting down and loosing power while driving. very unsafe and concerning
The following three warning lights have started to come on intermittently; 1) malfunction indicator light (mil); 2) electronic throttle control (etc); and 3) electronic stability control (esc). the malfunction and esc lights were the first warning lights to come on. the lights have activated while i am driving on dry payment without any hazardous conditions present. the etc warning light now comes on too. i have noticed that the car seems to stall when i put it in drive. take off is slow. it takes me several blocks of driving to reach 30 mph. the car will also feel as if it lunged but resume a slow pace. take off is extremely slow when i stop for traffic lights. the engine seems to be losing pressure. i have maintained the recommended oil change schedule. the aforementioned conditions represents a safety hazard. i found recall # n52 online which appears to be for engine stall and the loss of engine pressure.
Takata recall vehicle stalling and shaking, shutting down and loosing power while driving. very unsafe and concerning, as the vehicle will shut off randomly in traffic in the road. vehicle horn honks randomly, unable to shut off. interior lights flashing randomly.
It doesn't matter if the car is moving or if it is stationary, there is only warm air on the drivers side and there is cold air blowing out on the passenger side. only the drivers half of my windshield will defrost. i have replaced the actuator twice and it does not help. the clicking under the dashboard not only returns, but the heat (or lack-there-of) is not affected. it still only blows warm air on the drivers side of the car. the defrost only works on the drivers side of the car. i understand there are many complaints of this happening to avengers across the board, no matter the model type. all due it looks like to casting and sand issues. after flushing the car multiple times, there has been no change. replaced the heater core/thermostat ($850) and the heat worked for about a week then started blowing cold air again. i took it back and they replaced the heater control panel. ($275). cold air again......... there needs to be a recall of something to fix this issue. nothing is working and it's only costing a whole bunch of money.
Etc lights coming on car not safe to drive, part was replaced 6 months ago and returned again. taking to dealer but i am trying to get rid of this car for this issue. i have not found a solution to this issue yet. while driving car started sputtering in traffic, i had to pull over and try again to make it home. once i got there the car revs up like i am pressing on the gas so i am getting it towed to dealer.
The vehicle's heater blows cold air on the passenger side and warm air from the drivers side simultaneously. all vents ( foot area, face area, and windshield area) are affected.
While driving, electronic throttle control light as well as the traction control light illuminated on the dashboard. driver experienced immediate loss of power in vehicle & inability to increase speed, causing rear traffic to take cautious action. vehicle slowed to approximately 10 - 20 mph. car was parked for a day. upon starting again, no issue/ warning lights. one month later, same issue. upon restart, warning lights persist. vehicle at over 90,000 miles
Takata recall this car keeps burning out 15amp fuse. we've narrowed it down to some faulty wires connected to rampshift senor, but the connector to the senor is not at an auto parts store.
Car will rev and accelerate on its own even with brake pedal being pressed due to malfunctions in the electronic stability control i've even replaced the throttle body after reading forums about this similar problem and car continues to sporadically accelerate on its own at times while i'm driving or parked. *tr
Driving on interstate and car jerks and then shuts off ! cars swerve around to avoid hitting me. thank god! i could start the car back up to get off the road all i could do was cry and pray that no one hit me in the back! that someone would help me to the side of the road! that i would see my children again! called the tow truck and sat in my because i was not prepared to play frogger with my life! googling a how to. unfortunately, for me there was no option. what really, made me mad was that this was a known problem and others have had this situation! the manufacture has not addressed this faulty problem! *tr
While on the highway doing 75 mph, my 2013 avenger immediately dropped to 40 mph. it felt like a car had re ended me, after dropping to 40, my car lost all power. my rpms went to 0, and i had no control while steering. it left me stranded for 45 minutes and suddenly turned back on. this has happened 3 times already. also, before i had the dealership disconnect my horn, it would randomly blare. sitting in traffic and it would go off. sometimes it would beep once, other times it would last anywhere from 2-10 minutes. turning the car off wouldn't solve the problem, it would actually continue. the mechanics told me it was my tipm (total integrated power module) that caused this to happen, only seen in chrysler models. this problem has been ongoing starting with my horn since sep. 23rd, 2016.
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 dodge avenger. while driving various speeds, the accelerator pedal was depressed but the vehicle hesitated before moving forward. the failure recurred on numerous occasions. the electronic stability control warning indicator illuminated. the contact had to restart the vehicle to correct the failure. the vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the electronic throttle control sensor needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified. the failure mileage was 56,000.
I purchased my dodge avenger brand new in 2013. after two years of having my car, my car started to not want to turn on. i would continue to try and sometimes it would work and not other times. i went to get the battery checked and was told it was fine. i then went to a dealership and they said i probably needed to get a fuel injector done so i did this as well and my car still time to time will not start. 2nd my left side body panel one day just popped out of place and when i would go to shut my door it would make a clicking sound from me trying to shut it. i was not in a wreck, there is no explanation as to why my panel popped out of place. 3. my car is now not blowing heat out (and its winter right now) i only noticed this once it became cold out and needed to use it. first couple times i tried running the heat it would do so but only on the driver side. the passenger side was blowing out cold air. i had a auto shop look into this and they said they didn't see anything even wrong with any of it. but that they would need to do a diagnostic beforehand which is going to cost me $195 then i can go from there.. i keep seeing where a lot of avengers are having the same problems with there heating system.. could this be all from a manufacturing problem with the heater core??
I was driving from arkansas to texas and was approximately ten miles from my destination when the car pulled to the right on a narrow two lane highway hitting the approximately one foot tall concrete bride side. it was misting rain and the car kept pulling right and then started to go into a skid. i tried to steer to stop skidding and spun around into the ditch and rolled. only the passenger side curtain air bags and the passenger seat airbag deployed. no airbags deployed on the driver side or from the dash or steering wheel. the vehicle sustained major damage to the front, sides and top. there had been prior warranty repair to the driver seat airbag by orr dodge of searcy because the airbag system malfunction warning light had come on in the vehicle. *tr
