NHTSA Complaint #10626460 — 2012 DODGE DART

I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT WHILE MY 2013 DODGE DART WAS IN DRIVE ON AUGUST 14, 2014. THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN SO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME WENT. I ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE AND THE CAR ACTED AS IF IT WERE IN NEUTRAL. THE RPM'S OF THE CAR CLIMBED TO 6000 AND THE CAR WENT NOWHERE. I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE BECAUSE THE CAR WAS IN DRIVE AND THE RPM'S WERE STILL HIGH. THE RPM'S LOWERED AND AROUND 2500 RPM'S THE CAR LUNGED FORWARD AS IF IT CAUGHT GEAR. I DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME AND PARKED IT. I DROVE IT THE NEXT DAY TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS MAKING A CLICKING NOISE WHEN IT SHIFTED. THE DEALERSHIP KEPT THE CAR FOR FOUR DAYS. THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. I PICKED MY CAR UP ON AUGUST 18, 2014. I DROVE THE CAR HOME. ON AUGUST 19, 2014 I TOOK THE DODGE DART BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE IT SOUNDED AS IF THE CLICKING IN AND OUT WHEN CHANGING GEARS WAS HAPPENING. I LEFT THE CAR AT THE DEALERSHIP ONCE AGAIN BECAUSE I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING A CAR WITH TRANSMISSION ISSUES. *TR
