Engine Clicking And Tapping Noises Problems of Dodge Avenger

The vehicle stalls and jerks violently during acceleration at take off after a complete stop. It struggles accelerating through intersections also at making left n right turns. At random times the vehicle stops in the middle of an intersection after take off and causes cars behind you and those who choose to proceed to run the red light going the intersection to hit you. The car is unsafe to drive making it a safety issue. Come to find out online that alot of Dodge Avengers are having the same issue. Car also does this while making left and right turns. It jerks n loses acceleration randomly no matter high roms or low rpms. On the highway or street you can't gain acceleration to pass or to get over without risking an accident due to not moving with the speed of traffic. Also am unknown oil leak appears had the car valve cover gasket and oil pan gasket replace and still looses oil. Oil is shooting all over the engine and engine making unknown sound that doesn't trigger a check engine light. But there is a ticking sound coming from engine. Took it to a Dodge dealership they found nothing wrong with the engine or transmission. I believe Dodge acknowledge these problems but refuse to fix what majority of their customers complaints about this same issue.

When heat or ac is turned on either in motion or not there is a clicking noise coming from the passenger dashboard about five clicks and the clicks will stop and the heat will come out of driver side, but cool air on passenger side. If turned off and back on it will repeat the five clicking noise and the heat will kick on. Also this "heat" is lukewarm at best.

My car is blowing cold air out of the passage side vents, then warm on the driver's side, when I run the ac, at idle or driving. The ac now only blows cool air out the passenger side, and warm out the driver's side. When I turn the control knobs, the fan will blow high on number 1. I believe there is an electrical issue as well, when I have on the headlights, and roll down the window, the lights dim, then return to regular brightness. There is a clicking noise for about 10 seconds in the passenger side dash for the first 10 seconds, when starting the car. My best guess is heater core or actuator issues. I know that there have been numerous complaints on these cars, please recall the 2012 Dodge Avenger sxt plus, to fix the issues at hand. Thank you.
