Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD MY 2012 DODGE AVENGER FOR A LITTLE OVER A YEAR. THE HEAT DOES NOT WORK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND I WAS TOLD BY THE MECHANIC I PURCHASED FROM THAT IT WAS AN ISSUE WITH ALL THESE CARS AND NOTHING COULD BE DONE. ALSO IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS MY CAR HAS WENT DEAD WHILE DRIVING AND WOULD NOT CRANK FOR AT LEAST 3 TO 4 HOURS. I WAS JUST ON THIS INTERSTATE FRIDAY NIGHT GOING 60 AND MY CAR WENT DEAD AND HAD TO COAST OF THE INTERSTATE IN A REALLY BAD PART OF TOWN. I SEE THAT THERE ARE MANY ISSUES WITH BOTH OF THESE AND CANNOT BELIEVE THAT NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT THIS. THANKS DODGE.
