NHTSA Complaint #11404074 — 2013 DODGE DART

I WAS DRIVING HOME WHEN I TURNED THE CORNER TO PROCEED ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR WOULD NOT SPEED UP. I TRIED SEVERAL TIMES AND IT WAS ONLY REVING UP THE ENGINE LIKE IT WAS STUCK. I WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY GAIN SPEED BUT NO MORE THEN 45 MPH. WHEN I WOULD TRY TO GAIN SPEED IT WOULD REACH HIGH RPMS BUT NOT GO ANYWHERE BUT THEN IT WOULD JERK HARD AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS MAKING LOUD CLANKING NOISES LIKE GEARS SHIFTING MORE THEN THEY SHOULD. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHICH IT GOES OFF AND ON ALL THE TIME. I HAVE ALSO BEEN PUTTING MORE OIL IN THE CAR THEN I'VE EVER HAD TO DO. IT IS USING OIL AND THE GAS FUMES ARE STILL HORRIBLE FROM MY LAST COMPLAINT AND I AM NOT GETTING GOOD GAS MILEAGE LIKE USUAL THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED, BUT THE FAILURE RECCURRED. THE CODES PROVIDED WERE FOR THE PCM/TCM.
