Tl- the contact owns a 2013 Dodge Avenger. The contact stated that the vehicle was at stand still at a traffic light, when depressing on the accelerator pedal and the vehicle began to hesitate. The contact stated the check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact stated he was able to continue driving but continued to experience the failure. The vehicle was taken to local dealer south chicago Dodge Chrysler Jeep located at 7340 s western Ave, chicago, IL 60636, (773) 476-7800, where it was diagnosed with needing throttle body assembly to be replaced. The vehicle had been repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of failure. The failure mileage was 128,000. Dp.
The issue occurs mostly while the vehicle is in motion, but occasionally when it is sitting still and idling. While driving, the car engine will suddenly stall. No warning lights or check engine lights turn on. No codes are found when scanning the obd2. There are no recorded miss fires for any of the cylinders either. This is an especially dangerous situation specifically when driving full speed on major highways or roads. When the engine stalls, power steering cuts out and I have to muscle the car off to the side of the road to put the car in park and start it up again. The engine has stalled while going in reverse, driving forward, and sitting idle. This has happened over a dozen times now.
While driving at hwy. Speed vehicle surged but no warning lights, etc. Next time started, warning lights came on indicating a p2173 code. Car was just at Dodge dealer for recalls. Car will idle fine for a couple of minutes then start surging, idling rough with no power and set warning lights, mil, etc, esc. These will go off when vehicle is turned off except for check engine light. We have replaced throttle body with no change. Cleared code and came back and did the same. Very disappointed that Dodge has not addressed this issue. It is not safe.
I bought this vehicle on 11-04-2015. After just one day the check engine light came on & obd2 scan revealed air leak in fuel system. New gas cap installed & check engine light continues to stay on. I plan to get the vehicle checked out by Dodge dealership if this issue continues. I would also like to know if there is any way to come back & edit this comment if problem is resolved. Thank you.
