What 1,153 owners told NHTSA about the 2013 Dodge Dart

THE PARKING BRAKE HAS FAILED ON TWO OCCASIONS, ONCE WHILE STATIONARY WHEN IT WAS AT THE DEALERSHIP. IT CRASHED INTO A CAR IN THEIR PARKING LOT IN 2016. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE DEALERSHIP OVER THE LAST FOUR YEARS. IT WAS IN THE DEALERSHIP IN 2015-2016 THIRTEEN TIMES FOR OIL LEAKS AND THE ENGINE EITHER DYING OR ALMOST SEIZING WHILE IN MOTION. THIS RESULTED IN MY VEHICLE STARTING ON FIRE IN LATE 2016 EARLY 2017. THE REPAIR FOR THE FIRE DAMAGE WAS COVERED BY MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND IT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY FIXED BY A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP AFTER THAT. MORE RECENTLY, IT WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY AND ROLLED INTO MY TRUCK AND DAMAGED THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE'S BUMPER WHILE STATIONARY WITH THE PARKING BRAKE WAS ENGAGED. THE SYMPTOMS WITH THE ENGINE HAVE ALSO STARTED TO REAPPEAR WHILE IN MOTION IN 3RD OR 4TH GEAR... IT STARTS TO ACT LIKE IT'S GOING TO COMPLETELY DIE. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I HAVE IT BACK IN THE DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSTICS. SOME OF THE RECALLS LISTED ON THIS WEBSITE SOUND LIKE THINGS I HAVE EXPERIENCED, PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERE IS ANYTHING I CAN DO. MY TIME IS THE MAIN THING I CARE ABOUT AT THIS POINT AND DON'T WANT TO SPEND ANOTHER 2 YEARS ENDLESSLY IN AND OUT OF THE DEALERSHIP. I JUST WANT A CAR THAT OPERATES NORMALLY.

I HAD TOOK MY CAR TO CHRYSLER IN BIDDEFORD IN MAY 2017 C/O THAT MY E-BRAKE WAS NOT HOLDING MY CAR. ONCE I GOT THE CAR BACK I COULD HARDLY LIFT THE BRAKE. I WENT BACK IN AND ASKED WHY IT WAS THAT WAY, THEY STATED THAT IT WOULD LOOSEN UP AS I USE IT. I USED THE BRAKE A COUPLE OF MONTHS LATER AND IT WENT UP ABOUT AN INCH. THE NEXT TIME I USED IT WAS IN FEBRUARY AND WHEN I PULLED UP ON THE BRAKE LEVEL IT WENT STRAIGHT UP. I CALLED AND LEFT NUMEROUS VM. NO ONE CALLED ME BACK. I WENT BACK IN ON A SATURDAY FOR MY OIL CHANGE. I TALKED TO A REP THERE AND THEY STATED THAT THEY WOULD LEAVE A NOTE FOR SOMEONE TO CALL ME BACK ON MONDAY. I NEVER RECEIVED A CALL BACK. I FINALLY GOT SOMEONE TO MAKE AN APPT FOR ME TO BRING MY CAR IN. ONCE THEY FOUND OUT I NO LONGER HAD THE B TO B WARRANTY THEY STATED THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY ALMOST $500. I CALLED AND LEFT A MSG FOR THE GM AND I GOT A CALL BACK FROM THE SALES MANAGER WANTING ME TO TRADED MY CAR IN. I STATED TO HIM I THOUGHT HE WAS CALLING ABOUT THE BRAKE. HE STATED TO BRING IT IN AND THEY WILL PUT IT ON THE LIFT WHILE I TALK TO SALES. THE REP CAME BACK AND STATED DO YOU KNOW THAT YOUR BRAKE DOES NOT WORK. MADE AN APPT FOR A DIAGNOSTIC WHICH I HAD TO PAY FOR AND THEY ORDERED A PART FOR MY CAR. I HAD TO TAKE MY CAR BACK TO BE LOOKED AT BILL DODGE AND THEY STATED THAT MY BRAKE WAS NOT WORKING AND THAT MY CALIPERS WHERE STICKING. I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK IN AND THEY STATED I NEEDED ONE OF MY CALIPERS CHANGED. I STATED I JUST CHANGED ONE THIS SUMMER MAKE SURE YOU GET THE RIGHT ONE. I PICKED UP MY CAR AND TOOK MY CAR TO MY FRIEND IN NH. HIS MECHANIC AGAIN STATED THAT MY BRAKE WAS NOT FIXED AND THAT THE E-BRAKE IS CAUSING THE CALIPERS TO STICK. I GOT MY CAR BACK AND A WEEK LATER (03/01/2019) I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT WHERE A CAR HIT MY DRIVER'S DOOR DOING ABOUT 35+. MY AIR BAGS NEVER WENT OFF. I HAVE 4 AIRBAGS AND NOT ONE WENT OFF. OTHER CARS DID.

I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK@ 0730 HRS, TRAVELING ON I 294 N/B, AT A SPEED OF APPROX 45/50 MPH WHEN I HEARD A LOUD POP. AS I ATTEMPTED TO REDUCE MY SPEED, TO MOVE OUT OF THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC, I NOTICED MY BRAKES WERE NO LONGER FUNCTIONING. I PULLED THE HAND BREAK UP, WHICH DID NOT RESPOND, I PUSHED IT DOWN AND PULLED IT UP A SECOND TIME, WHICH BARELY SLOWED MY VEHICLE, BUT DID ALLOW ME TO COAST TO A SLOW STOP ON THE SHOULDER. AT THIS TIME, THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. I EXITED THE VEHICLE AND A MAN WHO HAD BEEN TRAVELING BEHIND ME, PULLED OVER TO SAY THAT HE HAD SEEN FLAMES COMING FROM MY TAIL PIPE, BEFORE THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT BURST INTO FLAME. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED 911. I WAITED IN THE RAIN FOR ILLINOIS STATE POLICE AND THE FIRE DEPT TO RESPOND. STATE POLICE REPORT#IL 0229900 WAS MADE UPON THE TROOPERS ARRIVAL.

THE DARTS BREAKS STARTED TO FLUTTER AND THEN FEEL WARPED. UPON REMOVE THE ROTORS WERE IMPERFECT BASED ON POOR QUALITY MOLDING/CASTING.

WHEN BRAKING THE CAR DOES NOT SEEM TO STOP. ON SEPTEMBER 13,2013 , MY SON ACTUALLY HAD AN ACCIDENT. WHEN HE APPLIED THE BRAKES THE CAR CONTINUED TO RUN INTO THE BACK OF ANOTHER CAR. IT ACTUALLY TOOK OVER 6 WEEKS TO REPAIR THE CAR, AS PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. HIS CAR ALSO SHOWS THAT IT IS NOT IN THE SYSTEM WHEN I INPUT THE VIN NUMBER. I'M HOPING I DIDN'T MISS ANY RECALLS BECAUSE OF THIS. ORIGINALLY WHEN HE BOUGHT THE CAR, THE VIN NUMBER WAS WRONG ON HIS REGISTRATION. HE WAS IN THE PROCESS OF STOPPING THE VEHICLE WHEN I RAN INTO THE BACK OF IT. HE WAS ON A HIGHWAY AT THE TIME. IT CAUSED $8,847.31 DAMAGE TO HIS CAR.

I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED BETWEEN TWO VEHICLES. PUTTING MY BRAKES ON TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, THE BRAKES FAILED AND WENT TO THE FLOOR. THE CAR WENT OVER THE CURB, OVER BUSHES, BETWEEN TWO SMALL TREES AND STOPPED APPROXIMATELY 6 FEET IN THE SAND. IF THERE WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN SAND IT MAY HAVE GONE FURTHER. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER. THE REPRESENTATIVE SAID HE DID NOT DRIVE THE CAR. HE PUT HIS FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND ACCELERATED. THIS WILL NOT TELL YOU ANYTHING. THEN HE PROCEEDED TO ASK ME WHO PUT ON MY BRAKES OR CHANGED MY BRAKES. SINCE I HAD ONLY OWNED THE CAR FOR 2 WEEKS I SAID I DIDN'T KNOW AND ASSUMED THAT IT WAS CHRYSLER. THIS CAR HAS ISSUES. THE 2ND DAY I OWNED IT, IT DIED AT A RED LIGHT. WHICH THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS FROM VAPOR LOCK. THAT COULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED AS THE SALESMAN PUT GAS IN THE NIGHT BEFORE AND DIDN'T TOP OFF THE TANK. THEN THE 3RD DAY I HAD IT, IT WAS JERKING UP A BRIDGE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS HILL ASSIST. I CAN'T FIND THAT ANYWHERE IN THE DESCRIPTION OF THE CAR. HE SAID I WASN'T USE TO THE CAR. I WANT SOMEONE TO STEP UP AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FROM EITHER THE DEALERSHIP OR CHRYSLER. I DON'T WANT THIS CAR. IT HAS MECHANICAL ISSUES. *TR
