I was driving down the interstate when my cel light came on. I barely made it to the side of the road o investigate it. My car would not run, and I had to get towed home. . . . . . Turns out the my upper radiator hose was broken where the fitting goes into the hose. After trying to find the fitting I was told I had to buy the entire assembly. Confused as to why I had to buy the entire assembly I looked at the new part and it had been redesigned where the fitting is now held on by a more permanent heat-shrink looking tube instead of hose clamps. Well, seeing that the upper radiator hose is a very important part of the radiator I was also a little confused as too why you would want consumers to have to spend 100. 00 for just the part , if they are lucky enough to be parked and find it, but if they are unlucky like myself then they also receive a tow bill on top of that. Seems to me that it is an ongoing problem because it has already been rediesigned. I believe that this should be under recall because if/when the fitting decides to break not only did my car cut off but there is a big likleyhood that it could lock up or even damage your water pump , engine, etc.

Defrosters doesn't work because heat on passenger side doesn't work. I've had the actuator replaced and was told it was my thermostat, after I've gotten that replaced I was told it was my heater core! I can't drive my car during rainy days because defrosters doesn't work due to no hot air.

My vehicle was recently stolen and the color of my vehicle was very rare light blue and recently I have come across a vehicle that's for sale even though it does have a different VIN number in different mileage the possibility of the same vehicle color been in my area for sale end it was stolen out of my driveway after it was returned back from a car shop I know the russians are pretty legit and stealing vehicles in our area and putting them and doing different things I just wanted to know if this vehicle was actually my vehiclethey have been switched up and if there's anyway that I can look at it.

All the sudden my dash defogger on passenger side and passenger defogger are blowing cold air and drivers side is warm. Googled issue and it seems to be a big thing.

Drivers side heater works okay but the passengers side is very cold. . . I live in a cold climate area and the windows are always frozen 😩 it's so hard to keep the car when this doesn't work it's very unsafe.

Vent doors keep failing, driver side vent gets hot while one of the vents in the middle is warm and the other is cool. Passanger side is cold as can be. This is while using the heater. I have seen many people online talk about this problem. I have also seen reports on NHTSA about the same issues. I also have replaced them multiple times.

Just bought this car yesterday. The heat does not work blows out cold air all the time. The heat just quit working right before winter is about to start. I've been reading this exact problem with many others.

The car randomly dies and just shuts off. Vehicle has shut off both while being stationary and on the road.

Replaced heater core and air door actuator 12/13 months ago because passenger side blew ice cold air driver side hot air. Also defogger/defrost did not work. No visibility throughout windshield on passenger side due to ice build up. Same problem after just 12-13 months. Now it includes a thumpng noise under the dashboard when ac is turned on.

Cannot get the car to shift into gear. When in reverse it wanted to got forward and when it drive still going forward. I had to cut the car off, to avoid crashing. Now it will not start nor will my trunk open.

A known issue with 2011 doge Avenger where the heater core goes bad . It's a known issue and should be covered by Dodge. I shouldn't have to pay $1k out of pocket . I have read hundreds of forums stating the problem and it has never been addressed . Ridiculous by Dodge.

My car stalled 3xs has to replace ignition control switch. My heat doesn't work on passenger side. My lights flicker as I accelerate on expressway or even on the street now. Motor on passenger window went out.

The headlights flicker and dim whenever I roll the windows up and the car seems to putter at the same time, the right side of the car doesn't blow heat when the car is set to blow heat it only blows cold air all the time, the traction control light came on a few weeks ago for no reason and won't go away after all maintenance repairs. This car has been in and out of the shop multiple times and several mechanics have told me their is no severe issues with this car. But all electrical problems keep happening and I've already had to replace the alternator and jump start the battery twice. I've come to the conclusion of just filing a complaint on this website.

Passenger headrest restraint deployed spontaneously, without accident or crash being involved, striking passenger in head and neck resulting in head and neck injury. . Automobile was in motion traveling approximately 40 mph on a city street.

Hot air from driversss side and cold air in passengers side. Hot air seems to be coming from the floor at my feet. I just started my car for first time in day and this was happening.

I keep having the vehicle fixed and then they keep telling me nothing else needs to be fixed with it. It keeps pullingn when I come to a stop and then decelerates while I'm driving and I have to pull over on the highway or pull off the highway and start the car again. No lights come on there's oil in the car I just had an oil change I just had to brake pads fixed even though the brakes keep squeaking the rotors are new xcetera. This isn't the first time it has decelerated I had to have a part replaced a couple years ago because it was doing the same thing. Trying to figure out if there's any recalls on the car in order to get those recalls fixed. It did the same thing last year and when I took it in they fixed another part. It's never the same part that the mechanics fix and say is causing the problem.

The car engines lights came on while driving the electric throttle body light and ecs lights came on. The car is losing oil and overheating while driving. I took the car to a shop and they found an oil leak but don't know exactly where the oil leak is coming from. Oil is spilling all over the transmission. I contacted Dodge since the car has 89,000 miles on it and they ignored the problem. The car sputters in the middle of intersection it drives at 2000 rpms without gas pedal being press. The brakes depress on their own. Why is there no investigation done on these Dodge Avengers. Do someone have to lose their life in order to fix these issues?.

Alternator. . I bought used Aug. 12,2019. On Aug. 20,2019. . 8 days after I bought it went to virginia on vacation. . Left me set in 98 deg heat out in no where land. Towing and fixing coast over 700. . Now 10 months later it went again. . I am 71. . Retired,living on welfare ( social security ) what do I do now?.

Purchased 2012 Dodge sxt plus at auction. Recharged a/c but lose cold air after 3 days. Evaluations by 2 mechanics, dye, pressure tests, shows no freon leaks. Heater core is leaking and possible evaporator issue, same as what's seen in other complaints for Avengers. Frustrating that the heater core leak is so common on Avengers, mechanics all state is manufacturing issue, but no recall on it. Expensive to replace and no guarantee that it won't go out again.

I was driving down the highway this has happened I believe atleast 3 times now, all of a sudden while driving not sure if a specific speed but I was going atleast 50 mph each time, the steering wheel seems to lock up for a good second or two which is a long time when your going that speed. It's extremely scary and the first time it happened I didn't know if it happened or not than it happened again not sure how long after and that's when I was like ok maybe that steering wheel did lock up before than when it happened again I knew for sure it was really happening cause I had a friend in passenger seat who witnessed this . Now it's been a while and my car all of a sudden won't start and my steering wheels will not lock . I've replaced sensors tried deleting codes . The codes I got were wrong immobilizer key and low voltage . Doing as much research as I have for the last week buying and trying things I've seen a major problem with these cars is a security issue and it can shut your car off as your driving normally. Thia is dangerous and for as many complaints how is there no recall on this.

The vehicle was slowing down while driving on the freeway. Etc, esc, and check engine lights went on. The dome light in the car was flickering and the lights in the dashboard went dark and the speedometer was not visible. This happened in broad daylight.

I was driving on the highway at about 55 mph then suddenly my car stalled. My car shut completely off. I saw that there was a recall for this but it was for the smaller engine which does not include my engine. I just took my car to the dealer and he said their was an oil pressure problem which caused the oil housing to leak.

Water leaking into trunk running risk of shorting out the break light system. Have a warranty and mopar refuses to fix the problem under my bumper to bumper warranty.

When using the heater, driver side blows hot air and on the passenger side it's cold air. Makes it difficult for windows to defrost during winter, which makes it a hazard for this vehicle to be on the road safely.

My ac has stop blowing cold I have changed compressor, actuators, n control module and still air isn't blowing cold. Car was in motion when ac stop working properly.

While driving down the street, all of sudden my horn, starts going off, I took car to meineke shop, they told me the balance inside the steering wheel was broken, two of the 3 springs were broken. Ordered the part from Chrysler, they put the new part in, and two days later horn starts blowing again while driving. They are still trying to repair the problem. The horn blowing while driving down streets in los angeles, calif, not good idea for health reasons.

My case# 11323410, shop was not able to fix the problem and there appears to be a short some where in the colum of the steering wheel. My horn had to be disconnected just so it doesn't continue to blow while I am driving. My nerves have gotten very bad, listen to this horn continually blowing, car can be parked, or moving.

The passenger side blows cold air. Researching I see this is a huge problem with this vehicle. I live in minnesota and in the winter months it is dangerous to drive as the windshield freezes and fogs up. Visibility is decreased and dangerous!!.

Heat works on driver side and cold on passenger side srationary.

Heater/defrost, yes it is available upon request. The defrost and passenger side heat only blows cold air I have changed everything possible and still the problem remains. I cannot see out of the windshield passenger side because it does not defrost. It has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance etc. No warning I bought the car used it has always had this issue among many many others. I have read up on it and it seems like a significant amount of people that own this car have the same issue.

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.

The heater core is working and the bend door actuators are working but the heat only works on the driver side and not the passenger side. I've seen many forums of people saying the same things about 2012-2014 models. This seems to be a big issue with this car. It is winter now and only half the heat works, as well as only half the defroster as well. The car only has 105k miles on it and I've had no issues till this and other recalls. Dodge should recall these as it's a issue with many Avenger models. The vehicle does it just idling in a park spot or driving. Not sure if it's defective actuator bending doors or the heater core itself?! plz look further into this and hopefully this issue can be considered for a recall.

The headrest on the driver seat snapped and hit my head while I was driving. I currently have back neck pain, feels like a pressure. It was unexpected. Is there anything I can do ? I am going to my doctor this week, but anyway of fixing?.

2013 Dodge Avenger has randomly started honking the horn while stopped and in motion. The honking lasts anywhere from a quick honk to sounding like I am laying on the horn for minutes going down the freeway. I have tried pulling over and restarting the vehicle which did not help or stop the horn. This is very dangerous.
