The contact owns a 2015 Dodge Dart. The contact stated that while her husband was driving approximately 50 MPH on the way to the residence, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who determined that the failure was due to the powertrain control module. The contact stated that the key had seized in the ignition, and the vehicle was left overnight with the mechanic. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The towing company determined that the shifter cable had detached. The contact later became aware of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V674000 (Power Train). The contact had no other means of transportation and was unaware of the recall when the vehicle was purchased. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired by the local dealer. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately...
The dodge dealership had me to come in to reprogram my cars pcm(under Recall) because it was burning a quart of oil in less than 300 miles and getting extremely hot but now the engine has less oil burn as much as before but has less horsepower(tested by plugin meter) and has a ton of blowby that it blows oil out of drain plug there is no error codes or anything but the extended warranty test for a new engine isnt covered because they reprogrammed the pcm and to get a new engine under their extended warranty i would have to lose the amount of oil that i was previously before they touched the PCM they waited to show me the extended warranty after they reprogrammed it a year prior withholding that i could been eligible for new engine without catastrophic damage this car also has bcm 3 that has...
The electrical has a parasitic drain and it puts so much strain on the car that it will shut down on highways and in idle surging and it has no error codes popping up at all it originally started happening July 12th 2016 but a lot of these 2015 dodge darts are having these issues and having shut downs in the middle of intersections-highways and so on that this needs to be urgently recalled I desperately need help with this i take care of my disabled mother by myself and this has been a issue with this car for a while and well documented at the dealership with no help or recourse
Hello my car has so many safety and risks the engine electric and transmission very dangerous please help
The contact owns a 2015 Dodge Dart. The contact stated while driving on several occasions at various speeds, the engine revved up to an abnormally high RPM.

The contact owns a 2015 Dodge Dart. The contact stated while the vehicle was being serviced at Jiffy Lube, the mechanic became aware that coolant was leaking from the engine onto the radiator. The vehicle was then taken to AAMCO where it was diagnosed that the valve cover gasket was leaking oil into the engine and onto the transmission. The mechanic also informed the contact that there was a cord hanging from the bottom of the vehicle but could not determine where the cord needed to be connected. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 148,000.
I have a warning light on my car for P1065 and P1061 codes. These two codes comes and go away on their own. It usually occurs after starting the car and driving it for a few minutes. This causes the car to shake and slow down suddenly in the middle of the road. The car stops to shake only when I shut it off and turn it back on right away. Another issue is that my car key get stuck in the ignition sometimes after shutting it ofand I have to wait a few seconds for the key to come off or press the button on the gearshift handle a few times to make it come out. I wonder if this is related to the Transmission Shift Cable Bushing safety recall repair that was done a few years ago on dodge dart vehicles Lastly, I have been getting the "parking...
The ECM/Throttle Positioning System has been faulting for a while and only getting worse causing the car to just randomly steal with no power. Usually can shut off and restart car and itll be good for 1 min - 30 min you never really know. I got stranded in the middle of the highway and couldn't start my car after it died while driving down the road.
Message warm engine before start. Car won’t start message key fob damaged when it’s not. Engine clicks but no engine turn over.
I was driving the other day dropping off food for a customer and as I shifted my car from park to drive it wouldn’t change gears. Now let me remind u I’m stuck in the middle of these strangers driveway as they’re trying to leave their home and I cannot switch into reverse so I had to keep my foot on that break pedal the entire time. Thank god they were very understanding ( because who knows what could’ve happened) and said they were leaving for something that wasn’t very important and would go another day. Come to find out it was my CABLE SHIFTER WHICH I HAD ALREADY HAD REAPIRED PREVIOUSLY AS A RECALL. I haven’t even been able to drive the car because it will not shift into any gear. It’s currently just sitting across the street in my apartment complex as I have no way to work...
The contact owns a 2015 Dodge Dart. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was able to be restarted. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that there was no recall associated with the VIN. The failure mileage was approximately 66,499.
Car runs great when I bought it used then had check engine light come on for a P0420 trouble code and it has something to do with the converter on the car well now I see that there is a recall for this about the converter #u90 is there any way my car is having this problem due to the reclaa but when I put my vin in it says it doesn't have a recall but when u read online it says recalls are for 2014-2016 dodge darts but my vin is showing no recalls??
Sometimes I can smell like a gas or oil smell in the cabin of the car only happens when I take sharp turn or a bump in the road and sometimes by itself can't be good having this smell in the cabin and people breathing it.
The contact owns a 2015 Dodge Dart. The contact stated that the vehicle was initially taken to the dealer for an unknown recall repair related to oil consumption however, the contact stated that while driving, she constantly noticed a burning fuel odor throughout the vehicle. The contact also stated that the check engine warning light and tire pressure warning light were intermittently illuminated. Additionally, the contact stated that while driving, the temperature gauge increased rapidly and the engine overheated. The vehicle was towed to the residence where her father placed the vehicle on a diagnostic machine, but the cause of the failure could not be determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 143,000.
The car stalls completely at random speeds and consumes a huge amount of oil. This stalling is extremely dangerous as it happens at even highway speeds. This is not a unique problem as I have read hundreds of accounts of the exact same thing happening on the exact same vehicle type.
Unknown , I was driving down the road at 50 mph and my battery light came on then I lost my a/c my lights started flickering and I then lost power steering and brakes I had to use my emergency brake to slow down then all of my check engine and brake failure lights were flickering and my fuse box on top of my battery caught fire and was smoking and my car then shut off I could have crashed and or been hit and killed
The engine consumes a lot of oil and there is no warning light to inform you of this occurring. This can cause a fatality if the engine seizes, due to this consumption, on a highway.
My Dodge Dart with 2.4L engine was recalled for excessive oil consumption. On 09/09/2021 the vehicle was brought in for service and I was told the PCM was to be reprogrammed and that would fix the excessive oil consumption issue. I am now 3,000 miles after the PCM repair and I am still burning a quart of oil. I called the dealer, O'Daniel Automotive Group in Fort Wayne Indiana, on 01/28/2022 to speak with a service rep and was told they weren't available and I would get a return call. Today is 02/05/2022 and no one has returned the call.
I had to replace my engine, my transmission is slipping and not shifting gears properly. It has been doing it for almost 2 years now. The suspensions are horrible
My number 3 cylinder is the only problem. This had been the the third time I've had this problem in the last three years.
When the oil life in this vehicle gets low the vehicle randomly stalls. This week my vehicle stalled in the middle of an intersection putting me at risk of bodily harm. I had to have my car towed to the dealership because it would not start. After speaking with the service person at the dealership they said that this is a "safety feature" to protect the engine. This is not the first time this has happened, but it is the first time my vehicle wouldn't start at all.
Car's engine stops while driving. Has to be restarted. Engine use extra oil between oil changes.
WHEN STATIONARY, IN MOTION, OR DURING HIGH VOLUME TRAFFIC ENGINE TENDS TO OVER HEAT DUE TO COOLANT TRANSFER TUBE FROM THERMOSTAT TO EXPANSION TANK BY CRACKING OVER TIME CAUSING OVER HEATING ISSUES REAR TRUNK HARNESS TENDS TO SPLIT WIRES GOING TO HIGH CENTER LIGHT CAUSING FAILURE OF 12V
WHILE DRIVING DOWN MY STREET AND ACCELERATING, THE CAR STALLED OUT. NO WARNING LIGHTS ON DASH. HAD A HUNCH AND CHECKED THE OIL. IT WAS NEARLY BONE-DRY. ADDED TWO QUARTS AND IT APPEARS TO BE FUNCTIONING NORMALLY. I BELIEVE THE ISSUE TO BE EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. WITH THE LACK OF WARNING LIGHT, AND JUST UNUSUAL OCCURRENCE, I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. I'M JUST GLAD I WASN'T ON THE FREEWAY (AS OTHER DART OWNERS I'VE TALKED TO HAVE BEEN).
MY 2015 DODGE DART WITH 2.4L ENGINE CONSUMES LARGE AMOUNTS OF OIL. I HAVE TO CHECK THE OIL AN ADD FREQUENTLY TO MAINTAIN A SAFE LEVEL. (UP TO 1 QUART EVERY 2,000 MILES) I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FROM JULY 2018 TO THE PRESENT DAY AND HAVE HAD TO CHECK THE OIL LEVEL WEEKLY TO KEEP IT FROM DROPPING BELOW THE SAFE MARK. THIS IS A MAJOR HASSLE AND WORRY.
MY CAR KEEPS CUTTING OFF AT RANDOM. THERE ARE NO DASH LIGHTS.I AM REPORTING BECAUSE IT JUST HAPPEN TO ME ON THE HIGHWAY
THE VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY WOULD NOT ENGAGE GEARS, WAS EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTY SHIFTING. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO MECHANIC, FRED DRAKE AUTO WHOM INSTALLED NEW CLUTCH AND MASTER CYLINDER. A WEEK LATER, VEHICLE SHOWED IDENTICAL SYMPTOMS AND BECAME STRANDED ON THE HIGHWAY. A BURNING ORDER COMING FROM ENGINE, SHIFTER WOULD NOT ENGAGE GEARS. VEHICLE WHILE IN GEAR, PEDDLE DROPPED TO FLOOR AND WOULD NOT RELEASE. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO IG BURTON, DIAGNOSED COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE CLUTCH SYSTEM.
NO OIL LIGHT ON, NO ENGINE LIGHT, AND IT STALLED. THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH OIL CONSUMPTION WITH THE 2.4 ENGINE. MY CAR DIED AFTER BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND STARTING A TURN. Y CAR STALLED OUT TWICE IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS VERY DANGEROUS. BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON, MUSIC CONTINUED, BUT ENGINGE JUST DIED. THE STEERING WHEEL FROZE (NO MORE POWER STEERING), AND I COULDN'T PRESS MY BRAKE DOWN, IT JUST SAT THERE IN THE ROAD. I CHECKED THE LEVEL OF MY OIL AND IT DOESN'T EVEN COVER THE CURVED PART OF THE DIPSTICK, THAT'S HOW LOW IT IS.THE CAR STALLED OUT AGAIN, A FEW MONTHS AFTER THE OIL CHANGE. THE CAR IS NOT INDICATING WHEN IT NEEDS OIL, AND IS SHUTTING ITSELF OFF SO IT DOESN'T OVER HEAT WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS 70MPH+ AND IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS WHILE TURNING.
MY CAR IS RANDOMLY STOPPING WHEN I PRESS THE BRAKES. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ON AND HAD THE CAR LOOKED AT BY A MECHANIC AND HE SAYS IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE PCM.
I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING PRETTY MUCH EVERY RECALL THAT IS ON THE LIST NUMBER ONE IT STARTED WITH MY CAR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON. AND THE CODES THAT KEPT ON COMING UP OR FOR THE PLUGS AND COILS. I WOULD REPLACE THEM AND THEY WOULD JUST GO BAD AGAIN IN LIKE A WEEK IT IS CAUSING MY CAR TO DO WHAT SEEMS LIKE IT'S MISFIRING. MY TIRE LIGHT IS STUCK ON WHEN THE TIRES ARE FINE. THE SPEED CONTROL STOPS WORKING ON AND OFF. WHEN I STEER THERE'S A LOUD CLICKING NOISE. WHENEVER I TRY TO SHIFT HERE LATELY SOMETIMES IT WON'T GO INTO GEAR. WHEN I TURN ON THE AC IT WILL CAUSE THE CAR TO MISFIRE AND THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE IT STOP IS TO TURN OFF THE AC AND RESTART THE CAR SOMETIMES THREE TO FOUR TIMES BEFORE IT STOPS MESSING UP.TODAY THE SCARIEST THING...
SEVERAL DIFFERENT INCIDENTS, IN MOTION, ON HIGHWAY, ENGINE STALLED, NEARLY REAR ENDED BY TRACTOR TRAILER. ON CITY STREET, STOPPED AT RED LIGHT, LIGHT TURNS GREEN, ENTERED INTERSECTION, ENGINE STALLED, VEHICLE BEHIND ME HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID HITTING ME, 3 PASSENGERS, 2 CHILDREN. SEVERAL TIMES SAME ISSUE, ENGINE ALWAYS STALLS WITHOUT WARNING. *TR
MASTER CLUTCH CYLINDER / CLUTCH / CVC DELETE VALVE COMPLETE FAILURE, CAUSING VEHICLE WHILE IN OPERATION TO GET STUCK INTO GEAR AND CLUTCH TO DROP TO FLOOR. PREMATURE CLUTCH FAIL DUE TO THE CVC DELETE VALVE AND PLASTIC MATERIAL USED IN MASTER CYLINDER, THE CVC DELETE VALVE IMPACTS HYDRAULIC PRESSURE OF CLUTCH CAUSING A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE WHILE OPERATING VEHICLE AND DRIVER BECOMES STRANDED. THE CLUTCH, DUE TO THE MANUFACTURING OF THE PLASTIC FITTING DISENGAGES MAKING SHIFTING NOT POSSIBLE FOR DRIVER.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2015 DODGE DART. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND UNOCCUPIED, FIRE EMITTED FROM UNDER THE HOOD. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CALLED AND EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN UNKNOWN LOCATION. THE CONTACT'S INSURANCE COMPANY INVESTIGATED AND STATED THAT THE FIRE STARTED IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT DUE TO AN ELECTRICAL FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED A CASE WAS OPENED AND A FIELD INSPECTOR WAS TO INSPECT THE TO DETERMINE THE FAILURE CAUSE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,420. *LN *JS
CAR ENGINE TENDS TO IDLE FAST IN PARK AND ENGINE LIGHT READING FUEL CAP. I HAVE HAD THE CAR CHECKED AND PURCHASED FUEL CAP BUT INSPECTION IS READING AS FUEL LINE PROBLEM.
WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, IT COMPLETELY DIED WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND HAD A VERY DIFFICULT TIME GETTING IT STARTED AGAIN.
I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND WALKED INTO WORK AND WHILE I WAS GONE AND MY CAR WAS OFF IT CAUGHT ON FIRE IN THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT AND IS NOW TOTALED.
WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, BUT MAINLY AT LOWER SPEEDS AND WHILE AT A STOP, THE ENGINE WILL STALL AND ALL POWER IS LOST TO STEERING AND BRAKES WHILE SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS THEN APPEAR ON THE DASHBOARD - I HAVE READ ON CHAT ROOMS OF HUNDREDS OF THESE OCCURRENCES, AND MOST SEEM TO PINT TO A LOW OIL CONDITION THAT DOES NOT FIRST LIGHT THE OIL LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD, BUT SOME INDICATE OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE DART. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM BECAME DEFECTIVE AND DISPLAYED FALSE READINGS THAT THE TIRE PRESSURE WAS LOW. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V800000 (TIRES), BUT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING, WHICH SHE ASSOCIATED WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V113000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS ALSO NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000.
ON 10/24/19 WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SMOKE AND LOSE POWER. I HAD TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY EXIT OF FREEWAY ONCE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT TURN OVER INSTEAD IT MADE A THUMP SOUND. THE VEHICLE SMELLED LIKE GAS AND OIL INSIDE. LEADING UP THE THIS EARLIER IN THE WEEK THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL WHILE AT STOP SIGNS AND LIGHTS FEELING LIKE IT WAS GOING TO DIE. CAR WAS TOWED TO MY HOUSE THEN ON 10/25/19 VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO DODGE DEALER WHERE IT IS CURRENTLY STILL AT.
MY 2015 DODGE DART HAS STARTED TO OVERHEAT WHILE SITTING IN LIGHT TO HEAVY TRAFFIC GOING THROUGH SEVERAL STOP LIGHTS AFTER DRIVING 30 MINUTES NON STOP. I DID HAVE THE RECALL DONE ON IT FOR THE THERMOSTAT WHEN IT CAME OUT. I HAVE MY CAR SERVICED AND EVERYTHING CHANGED LIKE YOUR SUPPOSE TO SO WHY IS MY CAR OVERHEATED BUT WHEN I TAKE OFF IT COOLS DOWN? THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE NOW!!
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE DART. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR SUDDENLY ILLUMINATED, WHICH MEANT THAT THE ENGINE OVERHEATED. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS NO COOLANT IN THE COOLANT RESERVOIR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT COOLANT WAS LEAKING FROM THE THERMOSTAT. THE THERMOSTAT WAS REPLACED AND THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,000.
THE 2015 DODGE DART WAS PURCHASED IN SEPTEMBER OF 2018 WITH 35,000 MILES ON IT. IT HAS BEEN REGULARLY MAINTAINED HAD HASN'T HAD ANY ISSUES UNTIL NOVEMBER 9, 2019. THE CAR WAS STARTED THAT MORNING AND IDLED APPROXIMATELY 2-3 MINUTES, IT DROVE ABOUT 60 FEET AND STALLED, POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WHERE LOST. THE BATTERY LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH BOARD. WHEN TRYING TO RESTART IT STRUGGLED, BUT EVENTUALLY TURNED OVER. IT THEN DROVE FINE . ONCE AT HOME I RESEARCH THE ISSUE AND FOUND MULTIPLE REPORTS LIKE MINE OF ENGINES STALLING DUE TO EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION.
THE CAR IS USING OIL AND WILL COMPLETELY DIE WHILE DRIVING. WHEN IT BECOMES EMPTY IF I COME TO A STOP IT WILL COMPLETELY DIE AND I LOSE ALL POWER STEERING AND THE CAR STRUGGLES TO TURN BACK ON. DODGE IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE ON SO MANY DARTS AND NOTHING IS BEING FIXED. THIS ENGINE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED! TWICE BETWEEN OIL CHANGES THIS LAST TIME I HAVE BEEN COMPLETELY EMPTY. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE THE VERY BEGINNING THAT I HAD THE CAR.
SUSPENSION IS TOO EASILY ADJUSTED. THE LITTLEST BUMP WILL THROW OUT ALIGNMENT AND HAVE THE RECEIPTS TO PROVE. WHEELS BEND EASILY, SPECIFICALLY 18 INCH RIMS. ENGINE USED TOO MUCH OIL AND LEAVES YOUR CAR TO SHUT OFF AUTOMATICALLY WHICH IS ADDED AS THE ISSUE IS KNOW TO HAPPEN. I AM 2,500 MILES AWAY FROM AN OIL CHANGE AND I NEED TO ADD OIL BECAUSE THE CAR USES SO MUCH. THE ISSUE IS KNOW BY DODGE AND ONLINE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT IT.
THE CAR WILL RANDOMLY DIE WHILE DRIVING. WHILE PERFORMING A TURN AND THE CAR DIES IT LOCKS THE STEERING AND NO USE OF BRAKES. NOW THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START AT ALL. ALTERNATOR, BATTERY AND STARTER HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND STILL NOTHING. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. IT HAS ALWAYS EVENTUALLY STARTED UP UNTIL RECENTLY.
MY CAR CUT OFF TWICE THIS MORNING, AND ALMOST DIDN'T CRANK BACK UP. THEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, SO I TOOK IT BY O'REILLY TO GET THE ENGINE TESTED. IT SHOWED THAT MY THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL WAS BAD. PRIOR TO THIS IT SEEMED LIKE SOMETIMES WHEN I TRIED TO CHANGE GEARS THAT IT WAS STICKING OR SOMETHING. IT WAS ALMOST AS IF IT WAS SWITCHING GEARS PROPERLY. TO TOP IT OFF, I'VE HAD TO REPLACE ALL OF MY TIRES ONCE, AND A COUPLE OF THEM TWICE. NOW TODAY IT APPEARS I'LL HAVE TO REPLACE THE BACK TWO A THIRD TIME. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!!! I'VE BEEN WONDERING IF THEY JUST DIDN'T LET ME KNOW THAT THE TIRES THEY WERE PUTTING ON WERE BAD TIRES, POSSIBLY RECALL TIRES. I'M WONDERING BECAUSE I'VE REPLACED TIRES WAY TOO MANY TIMES, AND ONE OF THE LAST TIMES I WENT THEY TOLD ME...
CAR DROPPED OUT OF GEAR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. IT WAS TERRIFYING I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BUT WAS LUCKILY ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD SAFELY. DROPPED SPEED AND THERE WAS NO ACCELERATION.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE DART. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE SEIZED AND LOST POWER WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE VEERED TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED, IT RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GREENWAY DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (9051 E COLONIAL DR, ORLANDO, FL 32817, (407) 347-4929) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE OIL CONSUMPTION SEEMED LOW. THE OIL WAS CHANGED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 59514487. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NEED TO BE DRIVEN FOR 2,000 MILES IN ORDER TO DETERMINE IF THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 54,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE DART. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED PERIODICALLY WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER, RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, AND IT RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. RECENTLY, WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PLACE THE VEHICLE INTO PARK, IT CONTINUED TO MOVE WITHOUT WARNING AS IF IT WERE IN NEUTRAL. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE KEY WOULD NOT EJECT FROM THE IGNITION BECAUSE THE ENGINE WAS STILL IN NEUTRAL; HOWEVER, THE CONTACT WAS ULTIMATELY ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V293000 (POWER TRAIN), BUT THE CONTACT WAS UNAWARE OF THIS PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.
