| Service Brakes problems |
Service electrical system came up in the car. Car wouldn’t start. After 30 minutes it did start, drove it 1/2 a mile to see if it would come back and rear brakes were on fire.
Update: I have been trying to work with gresham Dodge to return my car and trade it. They refuse to help me and stellantis refuses to help me. They want me to eat all the money. They refuse to meet me half way on a new car. Do not purchase a vehicle from this dealership. You will eventually regret it. I have filed a complaint with the bbb and the us consumer protection agency. Update: the car has now been serviced nine times! twice for the braking system, because we couldn’t stop, I almost got in an accident. Iit’s had many other issues! still have never heard back from anyone at gresham Dodge! not one person! stellantis refuses to take the car back. It’s been out of service over forty days all together over the six months I’ve had it. So, it sits in the driveway rotting. I will not drive it. I will not put my life or anyone else’s in danger. I’m making payments on a car I can’t drive! it’s imparitive that no one purchase from this slimly dealership! I’ll be reporting them to the bbb and the state attorney general. Do not purchase your vehicle here. Sales are not knowledgeable on the cars they are selling. They just want a sale and you gone, so they can move on to the next person. I didn’t even have my car 24 hours and it had to go back for service. I will say, they were attentive, but only because they wanted a sale. They know nothing about how the cars functions. I got a text from the service advisor saying if I needed anything to let him know. Then a week later another problem popped up. I have text from the service advisor saying he would get me in on a specific day. We took the car in and he turned us away and said they were too busy. We wanted a fully loaded car. Sales never told us of any upgraded packages that the car could come with. We asked. They were only interested in offing what they had on the lot. I love the car, but this particular model comes with an upgraded package that I didn’t know about until having to watch you tube videos to learn how to work.
While driving malfunctioning alert regenerative battery not available, servuce air bag system, audible ding sounds, parking brake alert, and I received alert the car " brake and suspension service required" I was told by ron tonkin Dodge service that car is not safe to drive; towed in.
I was returning home in my electric Dodge Charger daytona from work nearing an intersection when my vehicle's dashboard lit up with multiple warnings and entered "turtle mode" a limited power mode where the car no longer accelerates with the accelerator pedal but instead will slowly increase speed until breaks are applied. After getting the vehicle off the road and restarting the car there were no longer warnings and the accelerator pedal was working again, but I found on the remainder of the drive home that the regenerative breaking did not work in any of the vehicles 3 settings. This greatly alters the vehicles driving dynamics. I was fortunate to be already stopping when this incident occurred and was able to safely move the vehicle out of the motor way, but suddenly losing control of your vehicles acceleration is greatly concerning.
When using adas, the vehicle brake does not remain engaged after the vehicle is stopped, resulting in uncommanded rollback when the car autonomously stops in traffic on a hill. This occurred repeatedly without warning, and with adas remaining fully engaged and unaware of the rollback until driver intervention. In one instance, uncommanded rollback caused a near-miss where the vehicle was only inches from a collision at the time of driver intervention. This issue will ultimately result in collisions, likely injuries, and possible death.
I just had gotten my 2025 dayton r/t ev and I was on the highway in my first drive…. Enjoying the hell out of my experience. I had driven abt 12 miles. Even got a powershot in when I had a free right away in the highway and man… ?????? im so saddend to share that a car got over on my car and completely swiped the right side, then got over in front of me and slammed on their brakes…. All at 65 mph. Man… my car’s sensors didnt help at all and my airbags didnt deploy. My sensors never detected the car on the right getting close or that it slammed on brakes…. All my sensors are still green in the car, but my abs and other lights are on. Airbags didnt deploy crashing st 65 mph snd I stopped breathing for a few minutes the other driver snd passengers said. All I saw was the csr slam on brakes and then I woke up with 5 cops and 2 ems bombarding me with questions I had no clue to answer as my head was dizzy. Once I got to my senses they asked why my air bags didnt deploy and if it was a 2025 ev how did I get brake checked with security sensors and regen brakes. And I cant answer that only Dodge can… ?? man im devesated. My car is also still registered to Dodge… so when I went to the impound and shiwed them my info they told me I couldnt get the car out even with me showing them my welcoming emails apps etc. So now the car is stuck there. Racking up a crap ton of daily fees. Starting today. And I csnt even get the csr out if I tried. Now my payments. The storage fees. And to fix the vehicle as my deslership didnt add the car they switched me in because the one I signed for had problems to my policy. They left the one I never left the dealership with and I gave me the new one without asking or inquiring abt insurance for the new VIN… please help me guys. My lifes falling apart but im keeping my head up. . My right shouoder blade snd bsck is such a mess. Even after the hospital.
