NHTSA Complaint #10670003 — 2008 DODGE AVENGER

STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND A SYMBOL ON MY DASHBOARD APPEARED. THE SYMBOL WAS A LIGHTENING BOLT IN PARENTHESIS WHICH I'VE FOUND OUT IS THE ETC SYMBOL. THAT ALONG WITH MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON TOGETHER. AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF THE ETC SYMBOL DID NOT REAPPEAR BUT THE CHECK ENGINE SYMBOL DID. FROM LOOKING THROUGH FORUMS I'VE SEEN THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH NUMEROUS DODGE AVENGERS AND TO FIX THESE PROBLEMS COST LARGE SUMS WITH NO REAL CONCLUSION OF THE REASON FOR THE SYMBOLS APPEARING IN THE FIRST PLACE. I WOULD LIKE TO REQUEST THAT THIS PROBLEM BE NOTED IN THE AVENGER LINE AND RECALLED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION. *TR
