NHTSA Complaint #11113213 — 2012 DODGE DART

THE CLUTCH SYSTEM AND TRANSMISSION IS DEFECTIVE IN MY DODGE DART. IT HAS BEEN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND HAS CAUSED INCIDENTS WHERE I WILL BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IN THIRD OR FOURTH GEAR AND IT WILL JUST SLIP INTO NEAUTRAL AND LOCK UP. I WAS GOING UP A HILL RECENTLY WHEN IT DID THIS CAUSING ME TO FLY BACKWARDS DOWN A HUGE HILL WITH NO BRAKES STEERING OR ANYTHING. IT WAS LIKE SOMETHING JUST DROPPED. IT IS BECOMING A HUGE ISSUE AS I HAVE THREE CHILDREN AND AM SCARED THIS WILL HAPPEN WITH THEM IN THE VEHICLE. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS HAPPENING IN OTHER DODGE DARTS YEARS 2013-2018. THE TRANSMISSION COMPONENTS ARE FAULTY. I HAVE HAD IT REPAIRED AND IT IS COSTLY JUST FOR IT TO FAIL AGAIN AND AGAIN. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO RECALL THE TRANSMISSION AND CLUTCH SYSTEMS IN THESE AND COME UP WITH A BETTER DESIGN THAT IS NOT A DANGER TO PEOPLE'S LIVES.
