My wipers stop in the middle of the windshield when it’s pouring outside. Now my horn won’t turn off! I was told that it’s the tipm and it’s a known issue with my car.

The lighting inside is very dim and sometimes blink on and off when in driving motion. My horn starts blowing on it;s on with out touching it in driving motion. Also my car makes a knocking noise coming from the glove box when the car is off on a city street and also when it's in driving motion.

The dash board lights started flashing. My engine light came on and the car turned off the steering was not working and the brakes were pressed to the floorboard . I almost hit a mailbox . Thank goodness there was no child near the school zone this has happened several times now . The mechanic says it could be the abs.

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.

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.

The dealership stated that the car tire's were check I than had to come back 2 days later because of the wheel shaking badly and making a loud noise . The dealership stated that the car had a bad wheel bearing and that they missed it . I than brought car to be fixed and was turned away because of the weather conditions which dealership was already aware of even after telling them I don't feel safe driving the car home on the rain I was still turned away and asked to come back at a convenient time for the dealers mechanics car was swerving on high way due to tire and rain and could have caused an accident.

While driving down the highway the lights start flickering and then the dash board lights start going dim.

Electrical issue. Odometer drops from 65 mph to 10 mph on the highway. Lights flicker . Abs light comes on during all this also. Enigine stalls on occassion. Loss of power to engine. All this happens at highway speeds!!!!!.

It started with the blinker shorting out the lights inside the car and the problem is persistently getting worse. Now the horn goes off without notice while driving, now the horn is no longer working at all. I was nearly in an accident because I couldn't warn a vehicle they were entering my lane. I am concerned that my car electrical system will completely malfunction while driving as the electrical system is essentially the brain of the vehicle. Numerous Dodger owners have expressed that it will only get worse, even to the point of completely cutting off while in traffic.

My electrical stability light and air bag light come on daily now for 1 week while driving. My interior lights flicker and my check engine light is on but not registering. The recalls and my VIN is not listed.

The dashboard console lights keeps going out and flickering at inconsistent times. All other interior lights are working fine. Vehicle has less than 40k miles on it. This issue occurs often.

Issues over the years since purchasing include happened many times: dummy lights flashing on/off at their pleasure, clock always being off time and having to be reset every couple of days, random accelerations not provoked by driving or incline while on cruise and off, warning lights come on while speedometer stops working yet rpm is correct, and car completely shut off while driving.

Electronic throttle system icauses a rapid change in speed.

My 2014 Dodge Avenger has a faulty tipm. This has caused my car to lose all electrical power including engine stalling, lack of power steering, and no lights while driving down a busy highway at night. This happened several times. Once it happened while I was turning through a busy intersection! now it has caused my wipers to stop working! this is and has been a safety hazard. Chrysler has known about this and has tried to ignore, deny, even cover it up since before 2008. Hundreds of thousands of owners have been dangerously affected by this. I don't know why this hasn't been front page news! as an uber and lyft driver I can't make a living now because of this. Chrysler has already been sued over this and need to be continued to be held accountable. They have given no effort to recall all of the affected vehicles yet, only a few models that were heavily mentioned in the lawsuit. This is an outrage. This part costs at least $1000 for the consumer to replace only to be endangered by it yet again. Chrysler has acted lazily and unscrupulously regarding this matter and I need my vehicle fixed. American consumers deserve better than this. This kind of behavior from a car manufacturer is unacceptable. We must have a no charge recall ASAP.

Takata recall 2010 Dodge Avenger. My lights blink on and off inside my car. My throttle control light came on. My car pauses at intersection like its going to just stop. Like it can't make it down the road. I'm worried for my childrens safety also my own.

My Avenger is very dangerous and I'm trying to get rid of it because I fear for mine and my children's safety. On several occasions the vehicle has stalled while at idle and even once while I was accelerating on a highway- doing over 60 mph. It also continuously has accelerated on its own, either when slowing down or speeding up it will jump rpms and take off on its own. While going through a school zone the car accelerated on its own and I came very close to hitting two 5 yr olds crossing the road. I've had electrical problems, as the check engine light will come on and off on its own and just recently the combination switch stopped working completely, almost causing me to be rear ended. I've called Dodge and they want $100 just to look at the car, which I cannot afford after dumping many dollars into trying to fix these life threatening issues. I've had it seen there before and they said nothing was wrong when I paid over $500 for repair work. I'm fearful for my life while driving and its caused me much stress and anxiety. I've spoke to several other Avenger owners that experience the same problems in which their only option was to trade it in because they couldn't afford to buy a new vehicle. I personally would junk it myself because I would never want to jeopardize another person or their children's life, however like everyone else I can't afford it and will probably have to trade the "problem" down to some unknowing of the risks and dangers of the vehicle. After spending thousands of dollars for what I thought was a reliable car I am left driving a lemon, taking prescribed ativan for anxiety because I am constantly in fear of driving the thing, and unable to sell because nobody wants it. This car had wrecked my life, and I only want Dodge to take responsiblity. It's a shame to know that I am putting everyone's lives in danger & it's taking a toll on my health.

I just purchased this car 1-2-16 and already having electrical issues with keyless remote, dome lighting, radio and blue tooth not working. .

I was driving to the store through my neighborhood and the airbag light kept coming on and going off. Even after I turned my car off and back on it did the same thing.

While approaching a stop sign, I did hit the breaks, I felt a jolt however the car never stopped. The car did skid across a highway, and land in a ditch. There was extensive front end damage, however no air bags deployed. Bothe me and my minor child were removed from the vehicle by emergency response teams. We did both sustain injuries. The vehicle was unable to be driven and was towed.

The contact owns a 2012 Dodge Avenger. The contact stated that all of the exterior lighting failed on the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to a mechanic who stated that the light power module was defective and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was 48,300.

Deer started out into road, turned back toward ditch, then ran back out into road, I did not have time to stop or miss. Hit deer all across front of car. Air bags did not go off, seat belt did not tighten up, whip lass on neck and sholder. Total damage to car $5841. 59, why did not safety items on car work?.

We hit a deer and the front of the car was demolished. Upon inspection the next morning, I noticed that an airbag sensor was shattered and just hanging by the wire harness. Airbags did not deploy, I was concerned about this and never got a straight answer from anyone. Now I get a recall notice saying faulty restraint system, I'm not too happy. . .

I had just merged onto 69 heading home from school. It was around 930pm. I start to pick up speed to blend in with traffic. There was a three car accident that occurred so we all slammed on our brakes to avoid from hitting it. Unfortunately I hit the back of a flatbed tow truck going between 45-50mph. To my surprise my air bags did not deploy. Even though I had a recall on my car a few months back for the airbags not working right, so I took it to my dealership to have my recall fixed. So when I got in this head on collision I was in shock my air bags still did not deploy.

The dash lights go on & of intermittently. Sometimes when I stop for gas, the dash lights wont come on when I restart the engine. Sometimes the will go off while driving and I hit a bump. I am unable to see the instrument panel when this happens.

Electronic throttle control (etc) warning light comes on speradictly. Still runs ok. The etc warning light did not come on for the dealership (so they claim). I had a coolant system leak and had to replace 2 thermostats, coolant housing and have the coolant system flushed and filled at dealership. Not covered under warranty. Not cheap. Picking up the car tomorrow.

Lights were in auto position, drove approx. 6 miles with them on and running. Mad a stop and shut the car off, when I restarted it and started to drive away I realized my lights were no longer on. Had to put them in the regular on position to run them. Stopped the car many times, restarted it trying to get the lights to work in auto but had no luck. Got home let the car set 30 minutes and restarted the car with the lights in auto and they came on fine. What happens if this happens while driving at a speed of 60mh? saftey issue!!! I am very leary of this car and its safety on many different levels!.
