NHTSA Complaint #11011793 — 2012 DODGE DART

INTERMITTENT BATTERY LIGHT COMING ON AND OFF. I AM ON BATTERY NUMBER THREE AND MY SECOND ALTERNATOR AND NOBODY CAN TELL ME WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. AS I WAS DRIVING, THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON, THEN THE SERVICE ABS, THEN THE AC WENT OFF, AND THEN THE SERVICE POWER STEERING CAME ON. THIS CAUSED ME TO LOSE MY POWER STEERING WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE DIAGNOSTICS, ALL STATING THAT THE BATTERY WAS TESTING FINE, ALONG WITH THE ALTERNATOR AND STARTER. AFTER INSTALLING A NEW BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR, BATTERY LIGHT STILL INTERMITTENTLY COMES ON. WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON, THE ALTERNATOR IS READING AROUND 6V AND WHEN IT IS OFF, IT IS READING BETWEEN 13-14V. WHENEVER THE LIGHT COMES ON, THERE IS THE SOUND OF A RELAY OR SOMETHING HAPPENING. NOT SURE WHAT ELSE TO DO. THE VEHICLE IS 4 YEARS OLD AND I AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT ANYWHERE OR HAVE MY CHILDREN IN IT. I HAVE LOOKED ONLINE AND NUMEROUS PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE INTERMITTENT BATTERY LIGHT AND ISSUES ASSOCIATED, SO I DO NOT THINK THAT THERE IS WIRING DAMAGE TO EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE VEHICLES.
