Failure Date: 09/07/2015

Takata recall. The contact owns a 2013 Dodge Avenger. The contact stated that there were several failures that progressed, such as the front passenger side door handle fractured. The dealer replaced the door handle. The brake system was serviced several times and, while driving, the vehicle overheated and was pulled into a refueling station. The contact looked under the hood and noticed that the hose fractured from the radiator. The vehicle was unable to be driven due to the failures and had to be towed to a dealer.

4 Door problem of the 2008 Dodge Avenger

Failure Date: 09/22/2012

I was traveling Saturday afternoon and the driver's door open during travel. I was only going about 30 miles per hour and I had my seat belt on when this happened so no physical harm or damage occurred just very shaken up. I got out of my car to check the door and noticed that the latch was in the open position and would not lock or latch on. I was forced to drive home holding the door trying to keep it closed by placing my hand through an opened window while I drove. I called the dealership they were not aware of the previous recall and was told that I would have to pay out of pocket. I also contacted contact Chrysler at 1-800-853-1403 and was told that my car had already been repaired so I would have to pay out of pocket to have it repaired again. .
