Car Stall Problems of Dodge Dart - part 2

I purchased a 2015 Dodge Dart 3/19/18 from a dealership. I just had the oil change done which was recommended. The car just recently started to stall while driving. No warning lights went on. We checked the battery (which was a year old) and the alternator and they were fine. I went to auto zone to check it out. I called the dealership I bought it at and they said it could be a number of things. Never did they mention the oil being the issue. I get a call from the dealership that the because the oil was low the car will stale to protect the engine. First of all, it's a safety hazard if this can randomly stall, and second no lights came on for the warning. The cars meters showed that the oil quality was at 85% and good. This is very dangerous. I checked the owners manual and there is nothing that pertains to this car stalling.

Car stalls, jerks, or completely stops. Dangerous on highways or at high speeds. Car completely shut off on highway.

I bought a used 2014 Dodge Dart act in September 2017, in late December early January I brought car in to the dealership because it kept stalling out. They looked at it and said it was because the oil was low. Fast forward to may. I'm on the way to the store and my car stalls out while I'm driving with my 4yr daughter in the car. I got it started back up after a few mins but it stalled out after a min. Then again later in the night 3 more times in less then a quarter mile. This apparently is an ongoing issue amongst other dadge Dart owners. This problem could kill people and Dodge is doing nothing to rectify the situation.

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.

Driving car at 25 mph and it stalled without warning and without any clear indication what the problem was. After 10 minutes the car started and was driven home. A simple google search revealed low oil could be the problem. Oil was checked and noted that it was very low; there had been no indication that the car had low oil. We called the dealer to set up an oil change appointment and describe the stalling problem and they said "you must have a Dart", like it is a common problem. It is a very dangerous situation to shut off the engine without warning. Car has approximately 40,000 miles. . . . . . Weren't low oil indicators invented in the 70's?.

I was stopped at a 4way stop and when I tried to move forward the car stalled on me and did not move. I pressed on the brakes, let go and pressed on the gas again and it did the same thing but this time the dash read "gear not available, switch to neutral and then to drive or reverse. " I did that but it still stalled on me and then the dash read "service transmission" and the engine light came on as well. After one more try I managed to get it to move so I just parked it in an empty parking slot and called my dealerships service department. The car was towed to the dealership and as I type this I'm awaiting a call from the service department of my dealership so they can tell me what went wrong. I hope it can be fixed.

The contact owns a 2016 Dodge Dart. In October of 2016, while driving 25 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer (napleton Chrysler Jeep Dodge ram, 1460 e osceola pkwy, kissimmee, FL 34744) where it was diagnosed that there was inadequate oil in the vehicle during production, which caused the sensor to shut the vehicle down. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. While driving 40 mph, the oil indicator was flashing. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where a compression test was completed. The dealer diagnosed that the oil was evaporating and the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and denied the claim. The manufacturer advised the contact to add oil and refer to the owner's manual. The failure mileage was 15,638.

This car has gone through cylinders, spark plugs, 3 batteries including the factory one, throttle control computer all in less than 50k miles. Never gets more than 10k miles before there is another issue, quite possible the worst vehicle I have ever purchased and there's no doubt in my mind after reading forum after forum of the exact same issues experienced by hundreds if not thousands of other owners and dealer responses that there was good reason to discontinue the production of this model and the model years thereafter. Unfortunately, we are all stuck with payments on cars that put us at significant safety risk because of frequent and random stall outs, including one that happened to myself at highway speed, and another on a dark desolate country road, and fca won't do anything about it other than offer a 5% discount on a brand new vehicle, for which comparable size and price no longer exists within the brand. This car is the definition of a lemon, we bought it certified used from Dodge after the car had a single owner and with neither the dealership nor the brand offering any sort of significant assistance in remedying this product defect other than repairs within warranty that keep us on the road for another month before the next breakdown, we are forced to pay for and drive a vehicle that puts our family at risk even more than in general. Unbelievable.

My car has stalled while I am driving on public roads. After taking it into the dealership, they said there is nothing that they could do. It has now happened 4 times. The first time I was pulling out of my high school parking lot going about 10-15 mph. The second time was pulling out of the dealership servicing department going about 35 mph. The third time was in my driveway while going about 5 mph. The last time was on a straight away going about 45 mph the steering and brakes locked up and I had to forcibly turn the steering wheel to get the car to the shoulder. The car has also ben in the shop numerous times due to issues with the tire pressure sensors, the central computer, and the display screen. Overall, the car has over 30 pages of service done on it, ranging form 2,600 miles to 37,000 miles. I just was informed by the Chrysler resolution team that my car will not be bought back or no compensation will be given. I cannot drive the car, because it is unsafe to be n the road for myself and those on the road with me. If the car were to stall on the freeway, I could be killed or seriously injured.

When I am putting my car in gear I have my foot on the brake and the car accelerates at full speed while my foot is still on the brakes. I can also be at a stop light and the car will accelerate at full speed while stationary. My reverse also doesn't go backwards at a normal speed, it also stalls as I am attempting to reverse.

Car starting stalling/dying when driving in June 2016. Car was towed to the dealer (under warranty) the dealer replaced the battery. After 2 months the heater/ac stopped working and the car began stalling again. In November the car began stalling/dying while driving. The car is in motion when this happens. This is a serious safety hazard. The car dies leaving you with no power and stuck in traffic. It seems to happen during a turn on most occasions. I fear getting hit by another car when this happens. I have noticed several similar complaints with this. Why hasn't this been investigated. The average is 20,00-30,000 miles. Please do not wait until someone gets hurt or losses a life before an investigation on this car is made.

I bought a brand new 2014 Dodge Dart aero and about 3 weeks after purchasing my car stalled and shut off, the transmission light came on. I took it to Dodge and they said they did not have a code but they saw an issue with my anti-lock brake system. A part to my transmission was recalled, we waiting for over 3 months for the part and upon bringing my car to the dealership they reported my car not starting. About 3 weeks after my transmission recall was "fixed" my engine starting smoking upon starting the car at least 5 times and my engine was completely replaced, they again reported my car would not crank. My car was in the shop for 27 days, two days after picking my car up it was brought back to the dealor for the car feeling like the transmission was slipping at various speeds. It's been almost 2 weieks with no update. Dodge resolutions has sent an inspector. Initially the car was purchased with about 220 miles on it, the car is only at 17,000 now.

I have had multiple issues with my car since I got it. I have been through three radios, an entirely new turbo was installed one year after purchasing the car. Then things were going well until recently. I have had the car in the shop about 3 weeks in a row. First it was one of my coils that had become inactive. So while driving it the car shakes and stutters. While driving on the highway I try to hit the gas and the car starts slowing down and shaking. So I had taken it to another shop to look at it because for a new car it is not in my finances to be putting $400 into my car every week. Had to get the part ordered so I am currently driving my car around with one coil inactive. Then in the midst of all this happening, one week after the coil had officially went inactive, it was back in the shop because my emergency brake all of a sudden became really loose and when I wasn't moving the car would roll. Which means the emergency brake wasn't doing its job. So that night I took it over to the dealership to have them look at it yet again. They called me the next day and said that my left rear caliber had seized which is described to me that it wasn't grabbing and releasing the wheel like it should have which also caused my brakes and rotors to wear so much that they had to be replaced. Which this was something I could not just let go, or even drive the car with, I had to pay the dealership over $400 to just fix my car so that I could drive it. I cannot believe all the trouble that I am going through for a car that is not even 5 years old.

The car shakes very uruptly at idle. You can look at the engine and see it's shaking at idle. If you turn the air conditioner on it gets worse. Radio screen will not work sometimes. Blue tooth will work then cut off then turn back on when it feels like it. Automatic headlights work then randomly not work where I have to turn them manually on. Wipers do the same as the headlights but to correct the issue for the wipers it takes turning off the car and turning it back on and out them on low. Engine will die randomly while driving the car at any speed. Gps will not load sometimes. The back up camera works when screen works but also fails when screen is working and while backing up. During take off the car will stall like no gas then it will go like it's getting gas. During cold it shifts really rough like your using a standard slamming it in gear. I have also has 2 misfire in 2 different cylinders. One was a coil pack the other was supposedly a loose connection. Took car in for all this and dealer said if their is no check engine nothing they can do even though they feel the car chair and can see the engine shaking. They tell me to come back in when light comes on. Light switch has been replaced and still faults. Ecm and tcm habe been reprogrammed multiple times and problems still consist.

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!.

9/03/15 my transmission went out without warning while going approx 65 mph on the highway. Rpm's shot up and the trans went out instantaneously. I was able to pull over, engine and trans lights came on, car would not go in any gear. I shut the car off and was not able to restart it, meanwhile I sat like a sitting duck waiting for a tow truck, hoping that the speeding cars and semi trucks approaching would not crash into me. I had the car towed to a dealer. Dealer said the cause was a flashed pcm, it was reprogrammed I was told it fixed the problem. On 9/05/15 1 hour after coming home from work the car would not start again. Dealer was closed for the weekend so I let it sit for a while, 2 hours later the car started but would not go in reverse, an hour later, the car had reverse but no drive. The next morning the car started, all lights were off and all gears worked and I was able to drive it to the dealer. The dealer said codes were now showing it was the trans range sensor. Got the car back for the 2nd time on sept. 16. Sept. 19 I was driving home from work in the next state, the trans went out again while going 65 mph on the highway again! this time I was left stranded over 70 highway miles from home. After waiting a few hours I was finally was able to drive home, taking take side roads in case the car stopped again. What should've been a 1 1/2 hour ride home on the interstate took me over 5 hours driving on side roads. This car is going back to the dealer again for the 3rd time in 2 1/2 weeks! this is unacceptable, there are too many reports involving this issue on several websites I do not feel safe driving this car anymore or having my wife and kids in it. This is an extremely serious safety issue that needs to be addressed immediately! something needs to happen before (not after) this "known" transmission stalling issue causes a serious accident and kills someone!.
