NHTSA Complaint #11196429 — 2014 DODGE DART

THE CAR STARTED RANDOMLY SHUTTING OFF, AT A STOP OR WOULDN'T START ALL TOGETHER. AFTER ABOUT A WEEK OF RANDOM STALLING AND SHUT OFFS, I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC. HE SAID THAT IT HAS A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT WHERE THE CAR THINKS IT HAS LOW OIL, IT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE TO BE LOW. HAVE BEEN ADDING OIL AND CHECKING CONSISTENTLY FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND RECENTLY IT REFUSED TO TURN ON. GOT A JUMP AND THE CAR STARTED. HAD THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHECKED AT AUTO PARTS STORE , CAR STARTED UP NO PROBLEM, AND BOTH WERE FINE, BATTERY FULLY CHARGED. NOT MORE THAN 10 MINUTES AFTER TESTING THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN ON. JUMPED IT AND IT STARTED, DROVE HOME. AGAIN, TRIED TO START IT A FEW HOURS LATER AND NOTHING, NEEDED ANOTHER JUMP. USED A SCANNER TO CHECK FOR COMPUTER ISSUES AND NOTHING CAME UP. AFTER DRIVING THE CAR ABOUT 10 MILES, SHUT IT OFF AND AGAIN NEEDED A JUMP. THE CAR SEEMS TO JUST SHUT OFF OR NOT START FOR NO REAL REASON. ONE MECHANIC COULD NOT FIGURE OUT THE ISSUE, THE OTHER HAD IT A COUPLE OF WEEKS BEFORE BLAMING THE OIL ISSUE AND NOW THIS. NO RECALLS ON THIS CAR, ALREADY CHECKED THE VIN NUMBER. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO ABOUT THIS CAR AT THIS POINT WITHOUT SPENDING MORE ON IT THAN IT IS WORTH. 2014 DODGE DART, 98,000 MILES
