My shifter cable has broke on my car. I'm being told there is a recall on this part but there is nothing Dodge can do about this until November due to not having a part yet. Therefore I am stuck with a undrivable 2014 car that cant be fixed and no one will do anything to help me fix it nor will they put me in a rental until the part comes in. I've also been told they cant do anything to get the car back on the road until the part comes in. I'm confused as to why I have even gotten a recall notice on a part Dodge can not fix or why they cant at least get my car fixed enough to be on the road until this part comes in. This will be my first and last Dodge and I will file a complaint with the BBB as well.

FOR OVER 2 YEARS MY DODGE DART 2014 BOUGHT BRAND NEW OFF A CAR LOT HAS BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION. MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING IT WOULD SHIFT INTO 1 ST GEAR AND READLINE THE RPM TACH METER AND WOULD NOT SHIFT BACK UP TO ITS PROPER GEAR. I HAVE TO RESET THE BATTERY AFTER DISCONNECTING IT FOR 15MINS AND THEN SOMETIMES IT WILL CONTINUE TO OPERATE PROPERLY. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER 2 YEARS. MY CAR HAS LESS THAN 40,000 MILES ON. DODGE IS JUST NOW DOING RECALLS FOR THIS PROBLEM WHICH IS RELATED TO THE TRASMISSION BUSHING CABLE. JUST NOW AFTER ITS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER 2 YEARS THEY ARE TRYING TO OFFER RECALLS. I STILL HAVE YET TO BE NOTIFIED OFFICIALLY REGARDING THIS MATTER THRU THE MAIL OR A PHONE CALL, EMAIL EVEN. I HAD TO CALL CORPORATE TO ASK. CORPORATE TOLD ME SOMETHING WOULD COME IN THE MAIL NEAR THE END OF AUGUST. ITS THE END OF AUGUST NOW AND STILL NOTHING. THEN THEY SAID TO CONTACT LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIPS AND INQUIRE ABOUT PARTS IF THEY HAD ANY IN STOCK. THEY DIDN'T. I DON'T EVEN DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. DODGE NEEDS TO COMPENSATE ME BACK IN FULL AND BUY BACK THE CAR OR BE SUED AND SHUT DOWN AND NO LONGER ALLOWED TO MANUFACTURE THESE PIECES OF [XXX]. THIS IS INSANITY. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER AMERICAN BRAND CAR EVER AGAIN. ALSO THE GAS CAP FELL OFF THE CAR AND THE ELECTRONIC MOTOR IS STRIPPED OR DEFECTIVE. EVERY TIME I PRESS THE BUTTON ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE DOOR TO OPEN THE GAS CAP TO REFILL IT MAKES A LOUD NOISE FOR THE ENTIRE DURATION OF HOLDING DOWN THE BUTTON. DODGE SAID THERE IS NO RECALL ON THAT. THE FRONT WINDOWS ALSO FOG UP FOR NO REASON WHEN ITS COLDER. I'M TALKING ABOUT ON THE INSIDE OF THE CAR. SHODDY CRAFTSMENSHIP AND SHOULD BE SUED.

I have been having difficulty shifting gears after the car has warmed up. This has been going on for about 2 months now.it has gotten so bad this past week that it almost left me stranded 40 miles from home when I had stopped for fuel. I had put it in neutral with the emergency break on, and it just would not go into any gear when I tried to leave.after cooling for about 20 minutes, I finally managed to catch a gear and go. Sometimes, it will slip out of first or second gear into neutral, while in motion. This morning my husband attempted to move it into the garage due to a storm approaching and he could not get it into any gear and the clutch stuck to the floor. We have not driven it since yesterday, so it wasn't even warm. My husband and I pushed it into the garage.

When the engine is shut off the key will not come out of the ignition until the gear shift knob is jiggled. This is reoccurring frequently over the last year.

Vehicle made weird noises as soon as it was put in drive shortly after being turned on. Was driving on a 45 mph road when I could no longer accelerate after the first gear while turning into the freeway. Was forced to pull over and restart the vehicle which was able to put into first gear and after second gear began to rev up an no acceleration happened. Was unable to make it to work and tried to test it 'out again, but unfortunately its still failing. My vehicle is undrivable and now need to pay out of pocket for repairs of a recall that is still "pending". mine & my children's safety was on the line. We were lucky it was not rush hour. I have attached the letter I received from the fac us llc stating this is a defected vehicle. Which is a letter in accordance with the ntmvsa.

My Dodge Dart has an issue where the battery light will turn on and then the car will turn off while it is in use. This issue began around 1 year ago and has been sporadically happening since then. My mechanic exchanged my battery but the issue persisted and he has been unable to find a cause. Upon doing some research this is a common problem with Dodge Darts. When the oil gets low the car will shut off when in use without an indicator light showing the oil is low and despite the oil life percentage not being critically low (it was 17% the most recent time it happened to me). This is extremely dangerous because it happens abruptly and the steering locks up while the car is shutting off.

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.

The back up camera and interior screen have both gone out. Out of nowhere. The screen fluctuates between working and turning itself off mid use (not only for the camera, but during driving as well.) the screen has been malfunctioning for quite some time now and the camera has gone down about 6 months ago.

The car started randomly shutting off, at a stop or wouldn't start all together. After about a week of random stalling and shut offs, I took it to a mechanic. He said that it has a manufacturers defect where the car thinks it has low oil, it doesn't even have to be low. Have been adding oil and checking consistently for about a month and recently it refused to turn on. Got a jump and the car started. Had the battery and alternator checked at auto parts store, car started up no problem, and both were fine, battery fully charged. Not more than 10 minutes after testing the car would not turn on. Jumped it and it started, drove home. Again, tried to start it a few hours later and nothing, needed another jump. Used a scanner to check for computer issues and nothing came up. After driving the car about 10 miles, shut it off and again needed a jump. The car seems to just shut off or not start for no real reason. One mechanic could not figure out the issue, the other had it a couple of weeks before blaming the oil issue and now this. No recalls on this car, already checked the VIN number. Not sure what to do about this car at this point without spending more on it than it is worth. 2014 Dodge Dart, 98,000 miles

My car was parked. I turned my car on and pushed the brake, my shifter would change to different gears on the lighted display but would not actually go into reverse, neutral, drive. My car was stuck in park. Upon examination from a mechanic my shifter cable was loose and this had to be repaired. I have seen numerous complaints with this same issue upon online research. I called the dealership and was told this was not part of my warranty. This would be a safety issue if this was to come loose upon my daily commute on a busy interstate. I am concerned for my safety if my vehicle was stuck in drive or reverse. I am thankful this time I was in park,

Purchased 2014 Dodge Dart from Subaru of cherry hill, NJ dealership 5/2019 @ 44,000mi. Used. Excellent carfax. Since ownership, vehicle has stopped twice; once while slowed down to make a left turn, and again while stopped at a red light. Battery light did not come on either time. 3rd time vehicle didn't start after being parked for approximately 10 hrs. Needed to be jumped. After first incident of stopping, vehicle was towed to mechanic; couldn't find problem. Battery checked out as ok. Oil change performed at 47,351mi. Also, since being purchased, a slightly sweet smell comes out of fan. Does not go away. Concerned that the vehicle will stop while on a highway, causing a multi-vehicle crash. This seems very unsafe. Upon investigation, no recall was noted. Dealership called to discuss further without response. This is a very dangerous situation and there needs to be a recall. Many other drivers seem to have the same issues when searched online. Please help! most recent episode was 2/13/19.

Transmission slips into neutral while driving causing the car to lose mobility causing a major safety concern.

I recently purchased my Dodge Dart 2014 in August of 2018. I purchased the car with around 26,000 miles on it. Great condition, excellent mileage, no accidents, and only one owner. I have only had the car for 5 months. I use it mainly as a commuter car. It started having issues almost as soon as we got it. They were first minor things. Until November 2018. My cars battery died and refused to start. I had to replace out of pocket due to it not being covered by warranty. It was having issues starting, I thought that it was due to it being cold (because it would be fine once it heated up), so at first thought nothing of it. It would start up and I would drive it less then a mile, I would start to slow down and everything would shut off. The heater and the lights would still be on but it would loose acceleration and the battery light would come on. It will do this multiple times until the car is warm(even then it will continue to do it afterward). RPM drops to zero, check engine, electronic throttle control, and battery light all come on. This is a safety hazard due to it stopping in traffic, on the highway, and in intersections. Something needs to be done about this issue. I have read up on this issue and see that I lot of people have this issue. My car is currently at 24% oil life, I will be testing to see if the issue is resolved(temporarily) like others have been. Due to fear of it not being covered under warranty I have not taken it to the dealer. They quoted me at $400 dollars for everything that could possibly be wrong (based off this information they have an idea of already what is wrong with the car. They still want me to come in and try to charge me for it because it most likely won't be covered by the warranty.

The car turns off when at a stop especially when making a right hand turn or slowing down. The car gives you no warning no lights come on it just turns off. The car has been at the mechanic for over a week and they can not diagnose the problem becomes it comes back on after 3-4 attempts. This is a extreme safety concern for that it turns off completely when at a stop or a light. This can cause a accident and the problem can not be diagnosed yet.

My vehicle is not listed under the recall for transmission control module failure although it did shift into neutral and caused my vehicle to be inoperable. If the transmission shifts into neutral, it can cause loss of motive power, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. My vehicle was stationary being shifted into drive, after the shifter was moved the vehicle immediately moved into the neutral positon and would not move up or down in order to park it. The emergency parking brake was pulled in order to keep the vehicle stationary and the entire side of the car where the issue was had to be removed, I.e the battery and the compartment that holds the battery in order to gain access to the faulty part and to be able to remove and install a new part. My vehicle however did this because of a faulty shift bushing part that has withered away after only 4 years. The cable unexpectedly released itself from the bushing.

Car keeps stalling on road and not starting. This is an issue that needs to be rectified. Several others have reported the issues as well as far back as 2016. Dodge needs to do something on behalf of customers to clear this horrible safety hazard.

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!!

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.
