Dodge Dart owners have reported a total of 3,593 problems for their cars built in the 4 model years listed in the chart below. The chart shows the number of problems reported across all service years for each given model year of the Dodge Dart. The 2013 Dodge Dart cars have the most problems reported (1,928 problems).
The following chart shows the 27 most common problems for Dodge Dart cars. The number one most common problem is related to the vehicle's power train (927 problems). The second most common problem is related to the vehicle's engine and engine cooling (529 problems).
It would not be fair to compare the Dodge Dart of an older model year to newer model years since older vehicles have been in service longer and thus are expected to have more problems. In order to compare the reliability across Dart model years, we use the PPMY index which is defined as the problems reported per thousand vehicles per Year. A smaller PPMY index indicates greater reliability of the given model year cars.
PPMY = P / S / Y * 1000,
where P = total problems reported during the life of a Dodge Dart model year; S = total units sold of the model year; Y = years since the debut of the model year (the age of the vehicle).
The results are shown in Table 3.
Another way to measure the reliability across the model years of the Dodge Dart is to use the total number of problems reported during the vehicle's first year in service, as shown in the Table 4.
