At first I was unable to call out through my cars bluetooth, but if I used my phone to call out I could hear and speak through my car. However this did not last long since the speakers quit working. A loud clicking started in my dash. The radio turns on but no sound. When this happened I could not start my car after googleing the issue I found that others had the same issue and said that if you take the remote itself to push the start button their car started. I tried this and at this time my car will start this way. Also my trunk just opens on it's own. This happens constantly. I called dealership about it and they said it was not a recall. I'm a disabled person, and I need my car to get to and from doctor appointments. I do not have a lot of money and can not afford to pay to get these issues fixed. I feel that since there has been so many other people w ohth the same issues that these things should be recalled and customers have their vehicles taken care of. Thank you for your time. Donna carter these things happened over time so I have no certain dates.
Started driving my vehicle from work. When all of a sudden my whole dashboard lite up with the "abs light, power saver mode, and the traction control light. While attempting to pull over the vehicle my radio power off and the vehicle began making a "whining" noise. The engine shut off by itself. I pop the hood and while raising the hood white smoke appeared and I could smell something burning. My sister was present the whole time she was tailgating me in her vehicle. Let the car cool down and tried to restart it and the whining noise grew louder and upon starting it seem as if it did not want to start up but the dashboard was not lite up only the message on the dash about being in "power save mode". This was a scary situation for me and I do not feel comfortable driving my only means of transportation for me and my children. My sister gave me a ride home. I have contact the dealership and have an appointment for them to service the vehicle.
Car went into battery saver mode while driving. Took to dealership said nothing wrong. Drove next day where all lights and wipers going off. Radio cut off and abs, traction control and e-brake lights came on. Then car began having smoky smell. Completely shut off in intersection with no recharge or ability to start up. Could not even lock doors or open trunk.
At the red light the car shut off, did not have any power, and would not start. After jump starting the car it drove for about 30 minutes more, then all of a sudden the car started malfunctioning. The radio turned off, indicator lights started blinking, steering wheel begin to lock up, and the car began jerking uncontrollably. I then called a tow truck to jumpstart the car and proceeded to go home, the car never stopped jerking and was in power saver mode. I purchased a new battery the next day. Soon after the car begin to do all the same things, jerking, indicator lights, etc. My car has absolutely no power after completely charging the battery. It cannot get towed because I am unable to place the car in neutral due to no power. This has to be a manufacturers problem with the electrical system.
Morning of the incident, heard a "whining" noise when car started. Drive short distance to work and home. While driving on highway in traffic going 25mph at 6pm, lost power to radio, power steering, abs light flashed, brake light flashed, and strong electrical smell. When I finally got the car to the shoulder, itwas in battery saver mode and could not detect key for keyless entry. No electrical power. When I called Dodge dealer where it was towed, they said it would be $700 for parts and labor.
While driving on Sunday evening around 8:30 pm about 2 miles from my home going to get some cold medicines my car all of a sudden the radio stop working and it started stalling and my abs brakes light and traction control lights came on and was about to cut off and everything just stop working was able to get it off the road. Remember smelling something that was burning no smoke or fire have done research on the internet and there are several complaints about people having the same problem with the same amount of mileage as my car or lesser. Did call Dodge and they had no complaints they claim of this problem but it could have happen due to a recent recall they call a m10. No other assistance from the maker of this car but it needs to be investigated period. If it is the alternator and battery it is costing over $1000. 00 to get the repairs done and this is bad when the warranty just went out on it. Not including car note and car insurance.
The issue I am really complaining about is that the lug wrench supplied by the dealer doesn't fit the lug nuts. When I attempted to get a resolution from the dealer I was told that the cause was swelling of the lug nuts which is a "manufacturer defect" and that I better keep a 4 way in the car in case I were to break down. There is also electrical issues with the vehicle which cause the radio and dashboard not to light up or display periodically when you start the vehicle. Since these items are fully integrated with the so much with the vehicle it makes it very hard to travel safely when this occurs. The vehicle has had no modifications of any type.
