NHTSA Complaint #10543227 — 2012 DODGE DART

CLUTCH PEDAL DOES NOT ALWAYS COME ALL THE WAY BACK UP. I HAVE TO PULL IT UP WITH MY FOOT. I CAN TELL IT DOES NOT HAVE THE CLUTCH ENGAGED TO BURN IT OUT. JUST A IRRITATING THING TO HAVE TO DO ON A BRAND NEW CAR. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR ANOTHER ISSUE AND HAD THEM CHECK IT. THEY COULD NOT GET IT TO STICK. AND SINCE CHRYSLERS SYSTEM WAS DOWN THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO LOOK AT. THIS HAPPENS AND RANDOM TIMES. THIS MORNING IT HAPPENED. WHEN I WENT TO PUSH THE CLUTCH DOWN I COULD TELL THERE WAS NO RESISTANCE FOR A FEW INCHES. WHEN I RELEASED THE CLUTCH IT ONLY CAME PART WAY UP AGAIN. BIGGEST FRUSTRATION IS THE TECH'S CAN NOT PROBLEM SOLVE ANYTHING WITH OUT A COMPUTER TELLING THEM WHAT TO DO. I MADE A FEW SUGGESTIONS ON WHAT TO CHECK BUT THEY HAD NOT CLUE. SINCE THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR FOR THIS CAR I DO EXPECT BUGS IN THE SYSTEM. HOWEVER THEY SHOULD BE PREPARED TO PROBLEM SOLVE THIS PROBLEMS. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO MAKE SUGGESTIONS OR PROBLEM SOLVE IT MYSELF. *TR
