Consumer Description
I LOVE MY CAR. I DO NOT LOVE HAVING TO DUMP A QUART OF OIL IN IT EVERY 1,000 MILES. WHILE DRIVING MY CAR IT SHUT OFF. EVERYTHING SHUT OFF! I MANAGED TO GET IT RESTARTED AND MAKE IT BACK TO MY JOB BUT THEN HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED BECAUSE IT SHUT OFF AGAIN AND WOULDN'T RESTART. AT THE TIME I HAD NO CLUE ABOUT THE OIL ISSUE AS I BOUGHT MY CAR BRAND NEW IN 2014. IT IS COSTING ME QUITE A BIT TO KEEP OIL IN IT. THE MANUFACTURER FLAW IS THAT THEY USED ALUMINUM PISTON WHICH BURN THROUGH THE OIL. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND MAY END IN DEATH FOR SOME UNSUSPECTING CONSUMER. ALSO, AFTER COMING TO A STOP AT A STOP LIGHT OR SIGN THE CAR SHIFTS OUT OF DRIVE AS SOON AS YOU RELEASE THE BREAK AND PRESS ON THE GAS. I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES AND HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT AS IT WILL MOVE SLIGHTLY IN TO THE INTERSECTION AND THEN ACTS LIKE IT ISN'T GOING TO GO ANYWHERE WHEN IT ALL OF A SUDDEN JUMPS BACK INTO DRIVE. THIS IS A MAJOR HAZARD AND I AM UNSURE WHY THIS ISSUE AND THE OTHER ISSUES WITH THE 2014 DART ARE NOT BEING INVESTIGATED AND NO RECALLS ARE BEING ISSUED FOR THIS VIN #. OBVIOUSLY, THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THESE ISSUES. SINCE THE ISSUES CAN END IN FATALITIES IT SHOULD BE LOOKED AT A LOT CLOSER THAN IT IS. THESE ISSUES ARE CONTINUAL, THERE ISN'T JUST ONE DATE FOR THEM.
