NHTSA Complaint #11220893 — 2012 DODGE DART

THE BATTERY LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLICKERING ON AND OFF, AND THE VEHICLE STARTED IDLING AND DECREASING IN SPEED FOR NO REASON. WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE IT DID NOT WANT TO DO SO, AND AGAIN THE LIGHTS AND POWER STARTED FLICKERING TURNING ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY. UPON PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF, AT WHICH TRYING TO RESTART, THE ENGINE DID NOT TURN OVER ONLY CLICKING NOISES. INSTEAD STILL WHAT SEEMED LIKE A SURGING OF POWER WITH ALL RANDOM LIGHTS FLICKERING AND STEREO TURNING ON AND OFF. THIS ISSUE HAD NOT ONLY HAPPENED ONCE BUT NOW TWICE, AND I AM CURRENTLY LEFT CAR LESS AS THE ISSUE CANNOT BE FIXED OR FOUND. A TUNE UP WAS DONE ON MY CAR, WIRES REPLACED, THE BATTERY REPLACED TWICE, AND A MODULE REPLACED DUE TO THE FAN FOR AIR CONDITIONING INTERMITTENTLY TURNING OFF AND ON ON IT'S OWN FOR NO RHYME OR REASON. I HAVE RECEIPTS FOR ALL STATED ABOVE REPLACEMENTS. HOWEVER, I HAVE KEPT THEM IN MY CAR RECENTLY DUE TO HAVE TO REPLACE MULTIPLE PARTS WITHIN ONLY A COUPLE MONTHS OF THE PART BEING REPLACED. NO ONE SEEMS TO BE ABLE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS TAKING PLACE, AND I AM CERTAINLY TIRED OF PAYING FOR PARTS TO REPLACE THE PROBLEM WHEN THEY HAVE NOT HELPED IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM. IT SEEMS TO ME IT IS MORE OF A MANUFACTURING ISSUE THAN A MAINTENANCE ISSUE. MORE OVER THE FIRST TIME THIS ISSUE OCCURRED I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND COULD'VE BEEN SEVERELY INJURED DUE TO CARS DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS AND NOT PAYING ATTENTION. THIS ISSUE IS REALLY DANGEROUS AND COULD BE LIFE THREATENING IF NOT HANDLED APPROPRIATELY. I WOULD HIGHLY SUGGEST SOMEONE LOOKING INTO THESE FAULTS BEFORE IT COSTS A LIFE.
