2012 DODGE AVENGER Unknown Or Other Problems

I was driving and I stopped at a stop sign. When I got ready to go, the car stalled and stopped and wouldn't start. After 30 minutes, it started but I ended up having it towed. My mechanic was able to replicate it after putting the car in the sun, running it for 10 minutes and then driving it. When the mechanic tried to look at it, he couldn't find anything to cause it to stop. I look it to the dealership. They were unable to replicate it or find the problem. It seems to happen when the car gets hot it stops without warning. Other people in the Dodge Avenger online group have experienced the same thing. The horn also keeps beeping without warning and the airbag sign is on. I think all of these items are connected. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA),...

My car has no heat on the passenger side causing window fogging this is the 3 time I have had the car in at the dealers and they say it's a clogged heater core I have the extended warranty. The dealer said the warranty is no longer covering heater cores when it should a recall with so many complaints. Barkau Chrysler Dodge jeep Ram at 700 East South Street Freeport IL 61032 1-815-232-5141. Please help as I have [XXX] and I can get frost bite and lose my feet or hands Not only is it a safety issue but a health issue can't upload my dealership note.

Was hit from the rear emd amd air bags did not deploy. Back bumper was totally destroyed amd brakes go out fast

Little to no heat coming from vent on passenger side of cabin. Good hot heat coming from vents on driver side of cabin. Over the last 3 yrs the heater core has been replace 3 times once each year. Hot air came from all vents when replaced but as another comes around, no heat again on passenger side. Good heat on drivers side. Charlies dodge doesn't want to work on it any longer even though there is a valid warranty on the latest heater core replacement. Charlies dodge is claiming something inside the engine is coming apart and clogging the heater core. This makes no sense.

Just got this car from the dealers used with only 97000 miles and first time I used the heat and I have no heat on right side of car just drivers side vent. Not even the center vents blow hot air. Please help

The right side of my cars heating does not work. There is only 1 vent (the driver left vent closest to the window) that actually blows luke warm air, but all the other vents blow ice cold air. This happens with the heater turn all the way up.

Was driving and horn just start going off

Drivers side head rest deployed. We were in no accident. Head rest popped out coming home from work.

Heater/Defrost, Yes it is available upon request. The defrost and passenger side heat only blows cold air I have changed everything possible and still the problem remains. I cannot see out of the windshield passenger side because it does not defrost. It has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance Etc. No warning I bought the car used it has always had this issue among many many others. I have read up on it and it seems like a significant amount of people that own this car have the same issue.

Window Defrost and Passenger Heat /Air. While either in motion or while driving, no heated air exits the passenger side of the windshield defroster, nor the passenger window defrost, lower and center console vents. Heated air only exits the driver's side windshield and driver's side dash vents. Problem persists through all cabin air modes, and circulations. This safety issue effects visibility and passenger safety by failing to defrost/defog windows and keeping cabin temperatures near or below freezing during cold weather (blowing cold air into the cabin).

The heater core went again this is the 2nd one, it's a very scary thing when you can't get your windows passenger side defrosted. I live in Michigan and I have to have heat. Thank you Tom smith

Power steering pressure line keeps breaking or coming off

Passenger side blows cold air. Looks like a known issue that needs recalled

MY CAR KEEPS BLOWING ROAD DUST OUT OF ALL THE VENTS WHEN I'M DRIVING DOWN A GRAVEL ROAD DOESN'T MATTER THE SPEED AND IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE HEATER AND A/C ARE ON OR OFF. WHEN I TURN ON MY HEATER/A/C IT RUNS THROUGH THE DEFROST, FACE VENTS, AND FLOORS VENTS, BEFORE IT WILL FINALLY SETTLE ON THE AREA I HAVE IT SET AT. DODGE REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THERE'S A PROBLEM AND REFUSES TO A RECALL. THEY KNOW IT STEMS FROM THE HEATER CORE NOT BEING PROPERLY CLEANED BEFORE INSTALLING IT IN THE VEHICLE.

I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM 2ND OWNER, I LIVE IN SOUTH GEORGIA, TEMPERATURES ARE MILD, BUT NEED HEAT DURING WINTER MONTHS SOMETIME. JHEATER ISSUES - I HAVE A 2012 AVENGER; THE HEAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR STOPPED BLOWING HOT AIR. I TOOK THE AVENGER IN FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND WAS TOLD THAT THE ISSUE WAS FROM CASING SAND CLOGGING THE RADIATOR, HEATER CORE AND THE OIL COOLER. SEVERAL INTERNET FORUMS OWNERS REPORT THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH ONLY LIMITED FIXES FOR ANY LENGTH OF TIME, DEALER PRICES AT $1000.00 OR MORE. DODGE SHOULD COVER THIS DEFECT WITH A RECALL, THIS IS A DEFECT CAUSED AT FACTORY LEVEL, NOT OWNERS.

NO HEAT ON PASSENGER SIDE. AFFECTS DEFROSTING AND CREATES A SAFETY ISSUE.

HEATER IS BLOWING WARM/HOT AIR ON DRIVER SIDE AND ON PASSENGER SIDE IS COLD AIR. TRIED DIFFERENT PARTS THAT EFFECTS HEATER AND STILL DOES NOT WORK

DRIVERS SIDE HEATER WORKS OKAY BUT THE PASSENGERS SIDE IS VERY COLD... I LIVE IN A COLD CLIMATE AREA AND THE WINDOWS ARE ALWAYS FROZEN 😩 IT'S SO HARD TO KEEP THE CAR WHEN THIS DOESN'T WORK IT'S VERY UNSAFE

THE HEADLIGHTS FLICKER AND DIM WHENEVER I ROLL THE WINDOWS UP AND THE CAR SEEMS TO PUTTER AT THE SAME TIME, THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE CAR DOESN'T BLOW HEAT WHEN THE CAR IS SET TO BLOW HEAT IT ONLY BLOWS COLD AIR ALL THE TIME, THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON A FEW WEEKS AGO FOR NO REASON AND WON'T GO AWAY AFTER ALL MAINTENANCE REPAIRS. THIS CAR HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP MULTIPLE TIMES AND SEVERAL MECHANICS HAVE TOLD ME THEIR IS NO SEVERE ISSUES WITH THIS CAR. BUT ALL ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS KEEP HAPPENING AND I'VE ALREADY HAD TO REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR AND JUMP START THE BATTERY TWICE. I'VE COME TO THE CONCLUSION OF JUST FILING A COMPLAINT ON THIS WEBSITE.

DEFROSTERS DOESN'T WORK BECAUSE HEAT ON PASSENGER SIDE DOESN'T WORK. I'VE HAD THE ACTUATOR REPLACED AND WAS TOLD IT WAS MY THERMOSTAT, AFTER I'VE GOTTEN THAT REPLACED I WAS TOLD IT WAS MY HEATER CORE! I CAN'T DRIVE MY CAR DURING RAINY DAYS BECAUSE DEFROSTERS DOESN'T WORK DUE TO NO HOT AIR.

DRIVER SIDE AIR BLOWS HOT AIR WHILE PASSENGER SIDE AIR ONLY BLOWS COLD AIR. A FLUSH FIXED IT SHORT TERM. DEALERSHIP ACKNOWLEDGED IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE BUT WAS UNWILLING TO FIX.

THE CAR RANDOMLY DIES AND JUST SHUTS OFF. VEHICLE HAS SHUT OFF BOTH WHILE BEING STATIONARY AND ON THE ROAD.

PURCHASED 2012 DODGE SXT PLUS AT AUCTION. RECHARGED A/C BUT LOSE COLD AIR AFTER 3 DAYS. EVALUATIONS BY 2 MECHANICS, DYE, PRESSURE TESTS, SHOWS NO FREON LEAKS. HEATER CORE IS LEAKING AND POSSIBLE EVAPORATOR ISSUE, SAME AS WHAT'S SEEN IN OTHER COMPLAINTS FOR AVENGERS. FRUSTRATING THAT THE HEATER CORE LEAK IS SO COMMON ON AVENGERS, MECHANICS ALL STATE IS MANUFACTURING ISSUE, BUT NO RECALL ON IT. EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE AND NO GUARANTEE THAT IT WON'T GO OUT AGAIN.

THE PASSENGER SIDE BLOWS COLD AIR. RESEARCHING I SEE THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. I LIVE IN MINNESOTA AND IN THE WINTER MONTHS IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AS THE WINDSHIELD FREEZES AND FOGS UP. VISIBILITY IS DECREASED AND DANGEROUS!!

MY CAR IS BLOWING COLD AIR OUT OF THE PASSAGE SIDE VENTS, THEN WARM ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE, WHEN I RUN THE AC, AT IDLE OR DRIVING. THE AC NOW ONLY BLOWS COOL AIR OUT THE PASSENGER SIDE, AND WARM OUT THE DRIVER'S SIDE. WHEN I TURN THE CONTROL KNOBS, THE FAN WILL BLOW HIGH ON NUMBER 1. I BELIEVE THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE AS WELL, WHEN I HAVE ON THE HEADLIGHTS, AND ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW, THE LIGHTS DIM, THEN RETURN TO REGULAR BRIGHTNESS. THERE IS A CLICKING NOISE FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS IN THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH FOR THE FIRST 10 SECONDS, WHEN STARTING THE CAR. MY BEST GUESS IS HEATER CORE OR ACTUATOR ISSUES. I KNOW THAT THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THESE CARS, PLEASE RECALL THE 2012 DODGE AVENGER SXT PLUS, TO FIX THE ISSUES AT HAND. THANK YOU

MY AC HAS STOP BLOWING COLD I HAVE CHANGED COMPRESSOR, ACTUATORS, N CONTROL MODULE AND STILL AIR ISN'T BLOWING COLD. CAR WAS IN MOTION WHEN AC STOP WORKING PROPERLY.

ALTERNATOR.. I BOUGHT USED AUG.12,2019.ON AUG.20,2019..8 DAYS AFTER I BOUGHT IT WENT TO VIRGINIA ON VACATION..LEFT ME SET IN 98 DEG HEAT OUT IN NO WHERE LAND. TOWING AND FIXING COAST OVER 700..NOW 10 MONTHS LATER IT WENT AGAIN.. I AM 71..RETIRED,LIVING ON WELFARE ( SOCIAL SECURITY ) WHAT DO I DO NOW?

HEAT ONLY ONLY ON DRIVER SIDE. PASSENGER SIDE HAS NO HEAT AND WILL NOT DEFROST IN THE WINTER TIME WHILE STANDING OR DRIVING. WINDSHIELD WILL FREEZE UP AS YOU'RE DRIVING. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR A FEW YEARS. VERY UNSAFE!!!!!! WILL NOT RECOMMEND DODGE TO ANYONE NOR WILL I BUY ANOTHER DODGE IF THEY DO NOT FIX THIS PROBLEM!

WHEN I FIRST WEEK I BROUGHT THE CAR THE TRANSMISSION WAS JERKING , THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WOULDN'T GO ALL THE WAY DOWN. WHEN I REPORTED IT TO THE CAR DEALER SHIP THEY SAID THAT IS WAS JUST BECAUSE THE CAR WAS A NEW CAR AND IT WILL GO AWAY. I'M STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS I HAD THE FIRST DAY I PURCHASE THE CAR. I ALSO CALLED THE DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS TIMES TO GET MY RECALLS FIXED . THE DEALER SHIP TOLD ME LAST AUGUST 2019 THAT THEY WAS ORDERING THE PARTS FOR MY RECALL AND THEY NEVER DID. *TR

I HAVE NO HEAT ON MY PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR. I'VE LOOKED UP WHAT COULD BE WRONG AND IT KEEPS SAYING DEFECT IN THE MODEL. I'VE LOOKED INTO GETTING HEATER CORE REPLACED BUT I KEEP READING THAT IT WILL ONLY TEMPORARILY FIX THE ISSUE AND NOT FULLY SOLVE [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

WHEN USING THE HEATER, DRIVER SIDE BLOWS HOT AIR AND ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IT'S COLD AIR. MAKES IT DIFFICULT FOR WINDOWS TO DEFROST DURING WINTER, WHICH MAKES IT A HAZARD FOR THIS VEHICLE TO BE ON THE ROAD SAFELY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET, ALL OF SUDDEN MY HORN, STARTS GOING OFF, I TOOK CAR TO MEINEKE SHOP, THEY TOLD ME THE BALANCE INSIDE THE STEERING WHEEL WAS BROKEN, TWO OF THE 3 SPRINGS WERE BROKEN. ORDERED THE PART FROM CHRYSLER, THEY PUT THE NEW PART IN, AND TWO DAYS LATER HORN STARTS BLOWING AGAIN WHILE DRIVING. THEY ARE STILL TRYING TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. THE HORN BLOWING WHILE DRIVING DOWN STREETS IN LOS ANGELES, CALIF, NOT GOOD IDEA FOR HEALTH REASONS. *TR

MY CASE# [XXX], SHOP WAS NOT ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND THERE APPEARS TO BE A SHORT SOME WHERE IN THE COLUMN OF THE STEERING WHEEL. MY HORN HAD TO BE DISCONNECTED JUST SO IT DOESN'T CONTINUE TO BLOW WHILE I AM DRIVING. MY NERVES HAVE GOTTEN VERY BAD, LISTEN TO THIS HORN CONTINUALLY BLOWING, CAR CAN BE PARKED, OR MOVING. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE ACTIVE HEAD REST BROKE AND DEPLOYED WITHOUT WARNING. THE INSIDE PLASTIC THAT HOLDS THE RETAINER ROD BROKE, CAUSING THE HEADREST TO DEPLOY. THE CAR WAS PARKED OVERNIGHT IN A PARKING SPOT OUTSIDE MY HOME WHEN THIS OCCURRED.

VEHICLE HEATING SYSTEM FAILS TO PRODUCE HEAT ON PASSENGER SIDE. PROPER OPERATION OF COOLING SYSTEM CHECKED: FAILED THERMOSTAT REPLACED, COOLANT FLUSH PERFORMED, AIR BLED FROM SYSTEM PROPER COOLANT LEVEL CHECKED. HEAT IS PRODUCED ON DRIVERS SIDE, BUT STILL NOT ON PASSENGER SIDE. VENTILATION FANS CHECKED AND ARE FUNCTIONING AND BLOWING AIR. FAILED AIR BLENDER MOTORS REPLACED, ALL WORK PROPERLY AGAIN. CABIN AIR FILTER REPLACED. CAR STILL ONLY BLOWS COLD AIR ON PASSENGER SIDE. WAS INFORMED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN HEATER CORE ISSUE. VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 90,000 MILES

HEATER NOT WORKS PROPERLY. IT DOES NOT BLOW HOT AIR.

WHEN HEAT IS ON DRIVER SIDE VENT BLOWS HOT AIR. PASSENGER SIDE AND FRONT WINDOW DEFROST DOES NOT.

THE HEADREST ON THE DRIVER SEAT SNAPPED AND HIT MY HEAD WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I CURRENTLY HAVE BACK NECK PAIN, FEELS LIKE A PRESSURE. IT WAS UNEXPECTED. IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO ? I AM GOING TO MY DOCTOR THIS WEEK, BUT ANYWAY OF FIXING?

THE PROBLEM THAT I AM HAVING WITH MY 2012 DODGE AVENGER IS THE CAR SHUTS DOWN SHE YOUR ARE DRIVING NO WARNING JUST SHUT DOWN .I WAS TOLD THERE WERE FOUR RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE I TOOK IT TO RALPH SELLERS A DODGE DEALERSHIP IN GONZALES,LA. THEY SUPPOSEDLY FIXED IT I GET OFF FROM WORK AND CAR SHUT DOWN THREE TIMES,BEFORE I MAKE IT TO MY HOME..THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM THAT THIS CAR IS HAVING.I DO NOT KNOW HOW LONG I CAN DRIVE THIS CAR WITHOUT SOMEONE PLOWING IN THE BACK OF ME AND HURTING ME.

THE HEAT DOES NOT WORK. COLD AIR. IT IS WINTER AND I AM FREEZING.

PASSENGER SIDE AIR CONDITIONING WILL NOT BLOW HOT AIR. DRIVER SIDE WORKS PERFECTLY FINE. I'VE READ EVERYWHERE THAT IT'S A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT WITH THE HEATER CORE ETC. THIS WILL BE MY LAST CHRYSLER PRODUCT IF NOT RECALLED AND FIXED FOR FREE.

THE PASSENGER SIDE HEAT DOES NOT WORK. THIS JUST STOPPED ONE DAY AROUND 110,000 MILES. THE DEALERSHIP LET ME KNOW THAT THIS WAS A MANUFACTURES DEFECT WITH THE HEATER CORE. THE ENTIRE COOLANT SYSTEM IS BEING ADVISED TO BE REPLACED. THERE IS ALSO A GOD AWFUL TICKING NOISE COMING FROM BEHIND THE GLOVE BOX WHEN THE HEAT IS TURNED ON. DODGE, I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH READING ALL THESE REVIEWS ON THE EXACT SAME ISSUES, THAT YOU ALL ARE NOT STEPPING UP AS A COMPANY AND CORRECTING THIS ISSUE. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE? SOMEONE WRECKING A DYING DUE TO THE UNSAFE CONDITIONS THAT YOU ALL KNOWINGLY PUT US INTO? I WILL NEVER OWN ANOTHER DODGE AFTER THIS CAR. I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND A DODGE TO ANYONE EITHER.

MY VEHICLE ONLY BLOWS HOT AIR ON THE DRIVER SIDE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE AMONG MANY OTHERS WITH THE SAME VEHICLE. WE TRIED TO FLUSH THE HEATER CORE AND IT DID NOTHING.

THE HEATER ON THE PASSENGER SIDE STOPPED BLOWING WARM AIR WHEN THE CAR IS EITHER IDLING OR ON THE FREEWAY. EVEN WITH PUTTING IT FULL BLAST THERE'S NOT HEAT COMING OUT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE, JUST THE DRIVERS SIDE.

PASSENGER SIDE BLOWING NO HEAT WHILE DRIVING OR STATIONARY

IN MY CAR THERE IS NO HEAT. AT FIRST IT STARTED WITH JUST HEAT BLOWING FROM THE DRIVER SIDE AND SLOWLY THE HEAT COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. THE CAR MAKES A LOUD TICKING NOISE BEHIND THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT WHEN THE HEAT IS TURNED ON, AND EVEN WHEN IT IS JUST SITTING IN THE PARKING LOT OFF.

PASSENGER SIDE HEAT NOT WORKING. ONLY BLOWING OUT COLD AIR. EVEN WHEN VEHICLE IS WARMED UP

YES I WAS ON I 85 CONNECTOR IN CHARLOTTE NC ON MY WAY TO WORK, MY CAR STARTED RUNNING HOT HAD TO GET IT TOWED, MISS TIME FROM WORK HAD TO CATCH UBER TWO DAYS WHICH COST OVER 40 BUCKS, COME TO FIND OUT THEY SAY IT WAS MY EMISSION SYSTEM TO CAUSE MY CAR TO RUN HOT, NOW I HAVE TO MISS MORE TIME FROM WORK TO TAKE IT TO GET REPAIRED, THE EMISSION SYSTEM HAS A RECALL ON IT.

HEATER BLOWS OUT COLD, HAS PLENTY OF ANTIFREEZE BUT THERE IS A SMALL LEAK SOMEWHERE ACTUATED ON LEFT SIDE MAKES CLICKING SOUND. CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHY NO HEAT AND IT'S COLD HERE.
