The horn on my vehicle continues to beeps while driving, the radio no longer turns on and the car shuts off while driving without any warning almost causing accidents. I was told the power module needs to be replaced and there are many complaints online from other customers regarding the same issue with this make/model vehicle.

2013 Dodge Avenger has randomly started honking the horn while stopped and in motion. The honking lasts anywhere from a quick honk to sounding like I am laying on the horn for minutes going down the freeway. I have tried pulling over and restarting the vehicle which did not help or stop the horn. This is very dangerous.

The issue occurs mostly while the vehicle is in motion, but occasionally when it is sitting still and idling. While driving, the car engine will suddenly stall. No warning lights or check engine lights turn on. No codes are found when scanning the obd2. There are no recorded miss fires for any of the cylinders either. This is an especially dangerous situation specifically when driving full speed on major highways or roads. When the engine stalls, power steering cuts out and I have to muscle the car off to the side of the road to put the car in park and start it up again. The engine has stalled while going in reverse, driving forward, and sitting idle. This has happened over a dozen times now.

For the past couple of months my horn goes off on its own. Sometimes it goes off when I lock my car, other times it does not. It will sometimes click, and other times it will blare for 5 seconds. It is very startling especially while driving in traffic or sitting at a stoplight. Once I was driving in the rain, and it went off for about 8 seconds and at the same time my windshield wipers started to stall and not work properly. The horn does not work when I push on it like it should. It is very concerning since it can cause safety issues.

My car began clicking, approximately 30 seconds at a time, late winter early spring 2018-2019 when the heat was turned on. I came to realize the car did not need to be running for this to happen. During an oil change the following week I was told the clicking had to do with the vents and how common this clicking was and that repair eas not guaranteed. As I am the primary person/occupant in my car, I found out later the heat only produced warm air. This is my 1st time owning a Dodge and everyday my experiences with this car reaffirms I will never own another. I make it a point to tell any and everyone this fact. I have copied some of the complaints logged about this and my other issue, car stalling while turning left to enter the freeway with throttle indicator. I was on the side of the road alone and female until tow arrived at 9pm and the cost for an alternator which after reading this may not be the issue.... had I known how unresponsive Dodge is to their customers by putting their profit over our cost of repairs... again, I tell everyone what they are likely to experience if they purchase the Avenger. The complainants listed here and on other sites very likely agree. Attached pics were time stamped 6.39pm. I sat on the on ramp to the freeway approximately 3 hours.

While driving the engine will throttle down or cut the acceleration off making it dangerous to drive on the highway. I have to pull over repeatedly to turn off the vehicle and restart it to make it to a safe place to look at the engine.

2013 Dodge Avenger 3.6L will need to placed on safety recall P60 / NHTSA 14V-634 the alternator is allowing current back to the battery. The battery is cooking and the alternator is smoking. This happened while driving and destroyed the battery. After the vehicle was stopped I put in a new battery and the alternator started smoking and the new battery became very hot while the vehicle was off, we did not even have the key in the ignition. This could have caused the battery to explode and could have been a fire if I did not remove the battery and the new battery.

Faulty tipm. I was in motion driving on the city street. I had my cellphone charging in the cigarette lighter port and my windshield wipers on at the same time. My windshield wipers started freezing up in the middle of my window until I unplugged my phone. I had to pull over and wait for the rain to stop. It even does it when I turn on the air condition. Sometimes when I push the lock button on my driver side door, all 4 doors will lock. Btw, I know it's not the battery because, I just had a brand new one installed 1 month ago.

I have an issue with my 2013 heating system. My driver side vents are blowing hot air, though my passenger side is blowing cold and I do not have the money to fix this! bad time of year for this problem, my child and myself will be freezing this winter! also it has under 100,000 miles on it !! and no, it happens parked or in motion.thanks Dodge

Passenger side defrost/vent defects. The defrost and heat/air on the passenger side are not working due to a manufacturers defect. I cannot see when the heat outside the car is too high or low and the window doesn't properly defrost due to cold air only coming out of the passenger side. Only cold air blows from the vents on the passenger side in both heat/air and regardless of settings. This occurs stationary and in motion, on the highway and while turning.
