NHTSA Complaint #10915058 — 2014 DODGE DART

TAKATA RECALL THIS 2014 DODGE DART AERO HAS NOW HAD MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH THE CLUTCH AND AXLES. IT IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP TO HAVE THE SLAVE CYLINDER FOR THE CLUTCH AS WELL AS THE AXLES FIXED FOR THE SECOND TIME IN 2 YEARS. THEY ARE ALSO IN THE PROCESS OF CHECKING IN TO WHY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON FOR THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR. THIS MAKES 2 TIMES THAT IT HAS GONE TO THE SHOP FOR CLUTCH AND AXLE ISSUES. THEY ALSO DON'T KNOW WHAT THE REAL PROBLEM IS FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I HAVE ASKED THEM TO BUY THE CAR BACK AND THEY WONT. THEY ALSO STATED THAT I MAY BE HAVING TO PAY SOME OUT OF POCKET TO GET MY CAR FIXED THIS TIME. THIS CAR IS NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. LIKE I MENTIONED BEFORE; TWICE FOR THE CLUTCH AND AXLES, THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON FOR A REASON THEY DON'T KNOW OTHER THAT THEY THINK IT IS THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR, THE THIRD TIME I TOOK IT TO DODGE FOR AN OIL CHANGE THEY TOLD ME THAT NO OIL CAME OUT OF THE ENGINE AND THEN TRIED TO EXPLAIN TO ME THAT MY ENGINE WAS "KNOWN" TO DO THAT. NOW I HAVE JUST GOTTEN OFF THE PHONE WITH THE MANUFACTURER CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY REPLIED WITH THEY WILL COVER ALL THE COSTS EXCEPT FOR $100. SEEMS KIND OF ODD TO SETTLE ON THAT AMOUNT. PLUS THEY WONT BUY IT BACK. THEREFORE, THIS CAR IS KNOWN TO HAVE CLUTCH AND ENGINE PROBLEMS AND DODGE EXPECTS ME TO DRIVE AROUND NOT HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT IF MY LIFE IS AT RISK. I SHOULD ALSO MENTION THAT THE TIRES THAT CAME ON THE CAR WERE FAULTY AS WELL AS I HAD TO REPLACE TWO OF THEM ALREADY. THE BANDS ON THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE CAME LOOSE AND CAUSED PROBLEMS WITH THE DRIVING AS WELL. THIS IS JUNKER CAR THAT I PURCHASED NEW AND DODGE COULD CARE LESS THAT IT IS FALLING APART.
