The brake booster failed mid drive leaving us without any braking assist, which means to stop the car, it took a lot longer to come to a stop which is a significant safety concern. There is a loud hissing noise only when applying the break. You can find air being blown out of the booster when you press the pedal. Brake assist is completely gone, so even keeping the car stopped while in drive requires significant pressure. Communicated with a local dodge dealership and they weren-??t able to give an answer on the issue. This car shows that it was manufactured 03/15 There was a previous recall for this same model, but a year earlier. There does feel as if there is oil on the plunger of the booster. This was part of the previous recall. And as it says in the previous recall, there are no parts available to repair this. Recall: [XXX] Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Dodge Dart vehicles manufactured February 27, 2012 to January 23, 2014 and equipped with either a 2.0L or 2.4L engine. In affected vehicles, engine oil from the vacuum pump may seep into the brake booster, damaging a component within the brake booster. Recall consequence Internal damage to brake booster could result in a loss of brake assist, lengthening the distance needed to stop the vehicle and increasing the risk of a crash. Recall action Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the brake booster grommet for the presence of oil. If no oil is found, the vacuum tube assembly will be replaced. If oil is found, the vacuum pump, vacuum tube assembly, brake booster and master cylinder will be replaced. Parts are not currently available to remedy the vehicles. Owners will be sent an interim notification and then will be sent a second notice when remedy parts are available. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION

I have a problem with my brakes and I took it to a shop. The mechanic told me I had oil in my vacuum line to the break booster causing it to fail. The 2013 and 2014 models of my car has a recall for this problem but the 2015 was not included.

Brake Booster failed, no ABS, no traction control, no electronic braking assist. I've read where this has been recalled in Darts in 2013 models. Master Cylinder and Vacuum pump may also be bad.

Electronic Braking System Failure, was approaching a stop sign at 60 mph, was unable to stop, towed to shop. Shop is replacing brake booster, had to pay out of pocket (same as recall R63, but my model year did not fall into it), just wanted to report in hopes that this model year will fall into the recall, and prevent this happening to others! " The brake booster on your vehicle may experience engine oil migration from the vacuum pump, through the vacuum supply tube, and into the brake booster. Prolonged brake booster diaphragm exposure to engine oil could cause the diaphragm to fail. This could lead to a loss of brake booster assist and/or an air leaking sound. A loss of brake booster assist could require the driver to apply additional brake pedal force to stop the vehicle. The lack of brake booster assist could change the braking characteristics of the vehicle and cause a crash without warning."

- Benton , AR, USA

Attempted to stop at a stop sign and the brake pedal sank with a hissing noise and then became very hard to operate. I had to maneuver to avoid colliding with the vehicle in front of me by diverting into the other side of the road where a turneing vehicle had to stop to avoid colliding with me. I was able to reverse into a nearby parking spot and apply the parking brake to stop the vehicle. Mechanic has suggested that the brake vacuum check valve, brake master cylinder, or brake booster has failed but cannot pinpoint which component specifically.

- Lawrence, KS, USA

The contact owns a 2015 Dodge Dart. The contact stated while driving at 70 MPH, the radio engaged on its own and the vehicle lost power steering. Several warning lights such as the brake system light, the battery light, the airbag light, and the engine light were illuminated. The steering wheel became difficult to maneuver but the contact was still able to drive the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and was diagnosed with the battery and alternator needing to be replaced, and was repaired. The failure reoccurred today while driving. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who was unable to diagnose the vehicle as the OBD reader failed to work. The vehicle was also taken to an unknown dealer who was unable to diagnose the vehicle for the same reason. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 125,000.

My 2015 Dart GT was at a gas station to fill the gas tank up. All was well until I went to start the car and pull away, when the brake pedal couldn't depress at all and the car had no braking at all. I immediately pulled the emergency/parking brake lever to stop the car and it did. The inhud display said "service electronic braking system" and the "brake" light was on at all times, regardless if my emergency/parking brake lever was pulled or not. My first thought was to check the brake fluid in the reservoir. I did so only to find it was murky, a redish orange color. I called and made an appointment with my closest dealership to have it diagnosed. I also called Chrysler customer service and inquired about current recalls on my car and there were none pertaining to the braking system, but that there was a recall on the 2013-2014 models (recall campaign # 15V800000) because "...engine oil from the vacuum pump may seep into the brake booster, damaging a component within the brake booster.",which "could result in a loss of brake assist, lengthening the distance needed to stop the vehicle and increasing the risk of a crash." When I dropped the car off at the dealership and received the diagnostic, they found "oil had soaked inside of vacuum booster causing the vacuum booster to go bad... vacuum line and master cylinder."

I have had the brakes replaced twice due to it shaking while trying to stop. I also have put on three sets of rotors due to the shaking and even with brand new rotors the bouncing and shaking will not go away. The newest problem now is the brakes not wanting to work. I have had them checked by mechanics and they say there's nothing to do but change them out again!

- Hickory, NC, USA

I was stopped on a street that was a steep hill checking my mailbox. When I went to go up the brakes went to the floor and did not work at all. Car started to go backwards. No warning on dashboard ever about a brake problem. I was able to with a lot of strength pump them up. Went up driveway and again would not stop when brake was applied. Very dangerous and scarey.

I've had my vehicle for barely 4 years and I've had to take it in for the brakes to be fixed twice. The brakes suddenly stopped working and became rock solid when when I tried braking on the highway. Luckily I swerve and used my emergency brakes. Other times, it worked but I would have to press it all the way down and once it reaches a certain point it has a kick back to it and the car doesn't stop smoothly instead it jerks about twice before stopping. On the second instance, it had a hissing sound coming from the brake pedal area. The first time this happened, the brake booster was replaced with an oem. Second time it happend (a yr later), the brake booster, vacuum hose, and vacuum pump were all replaced but it kept happening. $1,200 in on this second repairs and I am still waiting to get this fixed. A few Dodge dealers have confirmed this is a problem with the Dodge sedans in fact the previous years(2013 and 2014) models were all recalled for this same issue but the 2015 was not recalled despite it having the same issue.

While driving the Dodge Dart 2015, going downhill at about ~40mph, I was braking to decrease speed then the brake pedal lost pressure and was unable to use the brakes in order to slow down. Due to being a manual car I was able to downshift to slow down and pull over and avoided a dangerous accident. After getting it towed and serviced at a repair center they root caused the issue to a broken valve that caused a failure in the hydraulics system. Attached documents show report of valve malfunctioning causing failure in vaccum system.valve failure caused brake booster to be filled with oil causing that component to fail as well.

I drive a 2015 Dodge Dart. I was backing into a parking spot on a decline. Shifted to N, coasted with my foot in the break, until comfortable. When completely stopped, I set the E-brake. My brake pedal decompressed and pushed back at my foot. Now pedal is stiff and won't move. When leaving parking lot brake pedal halfway decompressed. I went to stop at the intersection stop sign. Pressed brakes to stop and couldn't.. the pedal was rock solid, stiff as a board. I then pulled my E-brake, only to come to a screeching stop half way into cross traffic. I pushed brakes to shift to reverse and the pedal was stiff with no play. I shifted to reverse and backed into a parking spot, had to, again, pull my E-brake to stop. Called a tow truck and had it towed. Brake booster failure. Dodge wanted 3K. My friends shop wanted $400. Had car towed to him. When he ordered the part, it was on national back order. So I asked myself why, looked into it and found out the '13-'14 models brake booster was recalled. My car was manufactured early 2015. When I checked the VIN, there was no recall. But seeing how the part is on national back order, and I've been without my car for nine weeks now, I'm starting to think it should be a recall. If it originally was 3 days to 3 weeks, and that's now tripled..

Hi on new years eve my brakes failed and I hit a dog going 45 mph then on Jan 5 a 18 wheeler came over on me and I hit my brakes going 70 mph on interstate but never slowed down it did make a mark in the road but no.sounds or anything. I got over as much as I could I hit the guardrail then spun in two lanes and hit the other guardrail. Not one airbag came out. A few months before that my brake booster went out. Also I have a recall on my transmission but they don't have the part to fix it so it could be throwed I to neutral without a notice.. I have pictures of the car the accident the brake booster and a police report. The car only has about 80,000 miles on it and the 2013 and 2014 all have brake problems and online alot of people complain about 2015 brakes and airbags. I feel these cars should be pulled off the market I still owe alot of money on this car and.forking out over another $500 or more to fix it so I can drive it.

- Hayden, AL, USA
