general problems of the 2014 Dodge Dart - part 2

Care starts overheating while the coolant is full and all other components are working. I have taken my vehicle to be repaired multiple times for the overheating and there is no sign of damage to be repaired. Also occasionally the oil seems to disappear from the engine with no leak or visible damage. . Car will occasionally stall out as well while I am driving. The car is in the shop and no one can tell me what is wrong with it. I have been driving 3 times and the car will turn off which is dangerous. The drive is extremely rough and is very uncomfortable it bangs really loud with any small bump. Car has a bunch of flaws and I have had it less than 2 years.

2014 Dodge Dart recall unable to shift gears. Chrysler advised that the remedy date is 8/8/2019. Too long to be without a car. They state they will reimburse rental but not pay upfront for one. This is too long to be without my only vehicle.

On April 17, 2019, when arriving at destination, I attempted to shift gears into park. However, gears shifted into reverse permanently. I called my siblings to assist with getting the car out of reverse, the handle would move but the gears would not change. The only way we could get the car to stop was with the emergency break. We turned off the ignition, but all lights stayed on and we could not remove the key from the ignition. The only way to get the key out was to unhook the battery. I contacted the manufacturer the following day on April 18th, and they advised of a recall for shift cable bushing. I asked how long the process would take, they stated they would mail a letter to advise how to set up appointment, they would have to order parts. I called back on April 25th to inquire once again about how long the process usually takes, and they did not advise of a time frame. I advised the representative that my car cannot be driven at all, and asked if I were to get a rental car or get my car fixed myself would I be reimbursed. The representative advised that there is no guarantee. I've contacted the manufacturer once again on may 8, 2019. Representative advised that the part has still not been ordered and there is no estimated time.

I pulled up into my driveway, I started to put my car in park, and it would not go in to park. It felt like the entire shifter was broken or loose, as it would freely move up and down without actively putting the car in park, neutral, reverse or drive. I could not pull my key out, I had no other option, but to pull the emergency brake, and unplug my battery. I finally figured out how to pull the key out of the fob, so that I didn't have to leave my keys in the car. This was in mid to late April. I went online to see if I could troubleshoot and found out that there was a recall on the shifter cable bushing, which is exactly what was missing from my car. I observed the shifter cable was no longer attached, and that is why the vehicle could not be shifted into any gears. It is now July 18th, and I still have not been able to use my vehicle. No one can fix it, due to the part not being available. The manufacturer recall number is v34, and the NHTSA recall number is 19v-293. The recall started April 11th 2019 and I have yet to see anything from Dodge. I have been put on a list to be made aware when a part is available, but now I am getting upset because I can no longer sustain not having a working car, especially one that I pay for every month.

I allowed my car to warm up at home for 10-15 mins and then went a mile to return something to the store left my car running until I got back and I went to put it in drive and it wouldn't go anywhere, so it told me to put it in nuterul and then put it back in drive and so I did just that and it still wasn't going anywhere. So I continued to try and put it in drive until it told me to service the transmission and so after about 10 mins it finally went into drive and so I started to leave and it wouldn't get out of first gear the whole way for 7 miles and so I called the Dodge dealership and they told me to bring it in and so I drove 8 more miles to get my Dodge Dart areo looked at and they said that when the cars are cold the cars computer won't register the cars transmission's codes and said it was fine now but I personally don't believe it.

Issue began to occur where car will lose acceleration and must be turned off in order to work again. It has happened about six times now where the car must be pulled to the side of the road (if possible) and restarted. During restart, the engine hesitates/sputters for about 5 seconds before returning to seemingly normal operation. At no other time does the car act like this. Normally it will have no problems starting up. Just last night, I went to leave and was unable to take the car out of park. After a quick search I found that the car may have a loose or bad shifting cable. Another issue that seems to be reoccurring in these cars. My 14 gt has 64k miles and has always recieved routine maintenance.

The local dealer (frank fletcher Dodge, 5922 warden rd, sherwood, ar) and the manufacturer were notified of the failures. The failure mileage was 99,000.

Upon first driving every time it deceleration and it a complete stop the car shifts into neutral and powers down. This has happened ten days in a row.

2014 Dodge Dart. Consumer writes in regards to motor defect. The consumer stated the gearshift cable and grommet failed.

It became more consistent in 2017, my car would stall driving it anywhere from 25 mph -75 mph, some days the steering wheel would lock and the car would turn off and I'd have to wait until it was ready to be back on, just recently multiple times I have had my car turn completely off going 75mph, the dashboard turns off the steering wheel locks and the car shuts off, some times it turns off for not even a minute before it turns back on. Other times I've put my car on cruise control and it's turned off minutes after being set. Was told to change the oil more often which I did at maximum of 3000 miles, on a 2014?! this time (its been several several times already) my car turned off and wouldn't turn back on, tried jump starting it for almost 3 hours and it did nothing to the car, the car didn't budge. The dashboard would flicker on and off and all the switches would go crazy including my windshield wipers that weren't event on in the first place. Used a car battery charger to see if it helped at all, 12 hours later still nothing. I have a two year old and this car is way to dangerous for me to feel safe in!!.

As driving down the road after about a mile from home my car would no longer move but glide along. The engine was shut off and I had no control over speed. You can step on the gas and it will not move. Rpm's drop and the motor turns off in drive. After this happens the car hesitates to start but will. There is no check engine light on and all statistics for the car were as they should be. The battery is showing correct voltage. The cause is unknown.

If I brake within 5 minutes of starting my vehicle, the next time I brake all of the dashboard lights will flash on, the battery light will stay on, and the car will stall. After waiting 5 to 10 minutes the car will start again. This happens within a week of when my car needs an oil change. This happened 10/24/2017, 10/25/2017, and 5/17/2018.

This is the third time this has happened. The engine will stall randomly while driving. The same issue happened again today. This has happened to a lot of people, but still no recalls. This is extremely dangerous. When the engine stalls, you loose power steering and brakes. This can cause a major accident. Luckily, it's only happened on low rpm. This issue needs to be looked into and fixed.

My vehicle unexpectedly loses power while driving as if it has shifted into neutral. This typically happens on city streets before I make it to the highway. It usually happens as I'm slowing down. My local dealership told me it was a battery problem in sept. 2017 and I paid over $600 to haven them replace the battery, which resolved the issue until now. There is a recall r42 for this very issue, however it doesn't apply to my VIN number. The description of the recall fits exactly what I am experiencing.

The car loses power and shuts off. The oil has to be topped off every 60 to 90 days or the car will not run or will shut down while driving on the expressway. When the vehicle comes to a stop, it may may not start at all. Over the past year, I have had to have it towed 4 times. The last tow to the dealership cost over $500. 00 for parts relative to the transmission.

Tl- the contact owns a 2014 Dodge Dart. The contact stated that while driving approximately 50 mph the transmission erroniously switched to the neutral position before the vehicle shut off. After restarting the vehicle the check engine light remained illuminated. The contact indicated that the failure had occurred on multiple occasions. The cause of the failure was not diagnosed or repaired. The local dealer cowboys Chrysler in shelby, texas was notified of the failure but the manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 71,000. Jft.

My car doesn't seem to shift properly. It runs rough loses power then smell of something burning. While in motion car loses power n shifts late. When at a stop in drive thru put in park begins to idle n get hot.

Dodge Dart uses 1quart of oil 1,000 miles #2 does not shift in corect gear #3 rubbing in the frount end when stearing.

The contact owns a 2014 Dodge Dart. While parking, the vehicle failed to shift into park. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the gear shift cable needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The local dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but did not offer any assistance. The failure mileage was 31,716.

My vehicle has stopped on two occasions while I was driving it. This is very dangerous and is an obvious safety concern. When I pulled out the oil stick there was absolutely no oil. This happened the second time as well. I took it into the dealership and did an oil consumption test. The oil went down about half a quart in 1000 miles. They sent me away and said that this was acceptable. The engine only holds about four quarts this is ridiculous and I will never make it into my next oil change without the car shutting off. The car shuts off due to a safety reaction to stop the engine from being damaged due to low oil. I have not made it to my oil change since I have been refilling the oil. Dodge's guidelines say it is "acceptable" for the 2. 4 engine to burn 1 quart every 750 miles. That is all the engine oil in the engine since it only holds 4 quarts every 3,000 miles. My oil change won't be due any time close to then. Please do something about this. There are countless complains and threads of citizens with this safety concern. I am worried of when the car will stop on me again.

The motor has had an oil leak that started at 3000 miles and they have not been able to resolve. I am worried that this might lead to an enine fire. I have had it at the dealer several times for this problem and it keeps happening. With the powertrain the vehicle will not move then surges forward. This started around the 5000 mile mark and continues to happen. It acts like the clutch slips but I have had it in the shop several times and every time I am told nothing is wrong. This issue is dangerous when sitting in traffice or taking off from a dead stop becaue the car does not want to move at first and then when it does lunge forward it is not controlable how far it will actuall go.

"engine stalls out and completely dies". This has happened to me several times already with my six year old in the car. I haven't taken it to the dealership twice already and this will be the third final attempt for repair. I've brought a new battery even after it passed successful testing, and the alternator passed as well. The first time it stopped on me I was on the highway (had the car toll to the nearest autozone for a new battery) had the dealership look at it they stated they could not diagnose the problem since the vehicle was working and could not find anything wrong with the car, 2nd time it stopped two days later on the interstate had the car (this time I had it toll to the dealership) and they put in the work order what I stated did nothing to the engine and only completed the recall on the brakes. The third time it stopped on me while driving was on the highway oct. 2017 had to get a jump and he kept stalling out before it completely stopped this time I contacted Dodge roadside assistance to toll me to the nearest dealership for documentation. I have open a case with Chrysler corporation and feel like I'm getting no where, and the dealership has not even bother to contact me. I'm going through all of this when the car is only 3 years old with 48,000 miles still covered under warranty. All the times I vehicle has stopped on me on dark roads, in traffic, on the instate my daughter has been in the car with me. This car is a danger to me, my, family, and anyone else on the road if I drive this car. For now it continues to be at the dealership while I drive the loaner car they gave me. But I'm still having to make car payments on a vehicle I'm not even driving.

Loud humming from the front wheel while making a long turn on the highway to the right. Brought it into the dealer of purchase, they found out it was the rear wheel bearing, a day later I'm still experiencing the same issues with improved sound reduction from the rear, so the rear was fixed now I'm having the front wheel bearing replaced.

Transmission overheating.

While I was driving my Dart on the street, it shut off into nuetral and the gear box lit up red. I tried pressing on the gas and it was just stalling not moving at all. I had to put car in park (in the middle of an intersection)turn it off and turn it back on a few times before I could get it into drive again. The next day, the same thing happened when I started the car the whole gear box lit up and when I put it into drive it was on neutral and was stalling the car would not move!.

Takata recall this 2014 Dodge Dart aero has now had multiple problems with the clutch and axles. It is currently in the shop to have the slave cylinder for the clutch as well as the axles fixed for the second time in 2 years. They are also in the process of checking in to why the check engine light came on for the mass air flow sensor. This makes 2 times that it has gone to the shop for clutch and axle issues. They also don't know what the real problem is for the check engine light. I have asked them to buy the car back and they wont. They also stated that I may be having to pay some out of pocket to get my car fixed this time. This car is nothing but problems. Like I mentioned before; twice for the clutch and axles, the engine light is on for a reason they don't know other that they think it is the mass air flow sensor, the third time I took it to Dodge for an oil change they told me that no oil came out of the engine and then tried to explain to me that my engine was "known" to do that. Now I have just gotten off the phone with the manufacturer customer service and they replied with they will cover all the costs except for $100. Seems kind of odd to settle on that amount. Plus they wont buy it back. Therefore, this car is known to have clutch and engine problems and Dodge expects me to drive around not having to worry about if my life is at risk. I should also mention that the tires that came on the car were faulty as well as I had to replace two of them already. The bands on the inside of the tire came loose and caused problems with the driving as well. This is junker car that I purchased new and Dodge could care less that it is falling apart.

While driving my 2014 Dodge Dart, the clutch dropped completely to the floor board in between shifting from second to third gear making shifting impossible, while I was driving up a 2 lane hill in my neighborhood. There was no shoulder to pull over to at the moment the clutch dropped, causing me to have to reach down and grab it with my left hand. I was unable to re engage the clutch, thus stayed in second gear until I reached the top of the hill where a shoulder became available. I gently used the brake to slow the car down while in the shoulder until the care stalled out. After sitting in the care for several minutes I tried to start my car but was unable to because of the clutch resting on the floor board, I was able to pull it up with my hand and upon release it would fall back to the floor board. After several more minutes the clutch seemed to correct itself, letting me stat my car and resume my trip home, approximately 1 mile further. While continuing my trip, the clutch seemed to loose "pressure" and had to press the clutch completely to the floor board in order to shift. This is the second time this issue has com up, the first time being repaired in July 2015.

Driver's side rear wheel bearing shot after 39,000 miles. Loud humming noise when driving on the highway at first. I drove on it for a couple weeks and the noise got louder. I jacked the car up one day and the wheel wiggled a pretty significant amount. Replaced both rear bearings in my driveway after calling the dealership and having them tell me the parts were not going to be covered under warranty.

While driving I began stopping at a stop sign the car lost power /stalled. The radio /dash board remained on . No lights to indicate there was a problem came on . . . It took three tries before the car would start. I took it to the dealership where they told me there is nothing they can do. This is the first time it happened to me I bought the car used in August 2015 and it is now November 2015 it has about 21000 miles on it.

I would like to voice my opinion on a safety issue involving these cars with the 2. 4 liter engine. These cars are using oil, way faster than they should. The cars stall out losing all power and steering if the oil becomes too low. There isn't any indicator light that you are low or any sign until it happens. Currently my car is using just shy of a quart of oil every 1k miles and this is acceptable in Dodge's eyes. They advertise these cars to go 6-8k miles between oil changes - no more than 10k miles! well, at 5. 5 qt capacity. . . You will always run out plus some before a change is due! I have seen many people commenting about their vehicle stalling out on highways, etc without any warning. Majority of people I'm sure are not thinking to check their oil on their new car with every gas fill up to be sure the level is ok. This is totally unacceptable! these cars use the 0w20 synthetic oil and it averages about $9 a qt. This is doubling the cost of oil changes since you need to fill it up several times in between. Plus where is this oil going? mine has recently started sputtering and will be taking it back to the shop . . Again. . Have a feeling this oil is pooling somewhere and now causing a clog in something!.
