2015 DODGE DART Steering Problems

On my way home early morning I lost full function of my car. Luckily I was pulling into my home but my car would not go in any other gear but reverse. I could not properly put it in park or cut it off. Now it would turn on because it cannot shift into any gear. If I had made one more stop before heading home I could have been in a very bad accident or worse. This happened on 12/1/25. I immediately put on my parking break and chocked my wheels. I called the recall line for Dodge. We called several dealerships that are refusing to look at it the car because no repair is available. This recall notice was originally sent by email from CarFax in October and it's very serious. This recall notice should tell people not to drive the car but it doesn't. I finally receive...

The contact owns a 2015 Dodge Dart. The contact stated while driving at 70 MPH, the radio engaged on its own and the vehicle lost power steering. Several warning lights such as the brake system light, the battery light, the airbag light, and the engine light were illuminated. The steering wheel became difficult to maneuver but the contact was still able to drive the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and was diagnosed with the battery and alternator needing to be replaced, and was repaired. The failure reoccurred today while driving. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who was unable to diagnose the vehicle as the OBD reader failed to work. The vehicle was also taken to an unknown dealer who was unable to diagnose the vehicle for the same reason. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of...

CLUNKING NOISE WITH OR WITHOUT ENGAGING BRAKE PEDAL

THE RECALL FOR THE GEAR SHIFT HAS BEEN WORKED ON BY A DODGE SERVICE DEALER AND I'M STILL HAVING ISSUES IF THE GEAR STICKING INTERMITTENTLY WHERE I CAN'T SWITCH FROM DRIVE TO PARK AND I GET STRANDED IN THE HIGHWAY. I AM A SINGLE MOM WITH A 5 MONTH OLD AND I AM AFRAID FOR US. I HAVE TAKEN BACK TO SERVICE FOR A RECHECK AND THEY SAY EVERYTHING IS FINE. IT'S NOT FINE! THIS HAPPENS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE DART. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE STRUCK AN UNKNOWN OBJECT IN THE ROADWAY AND THE VEHICLE BECAME UNCONTROLLABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AN UNSPECIFIED PASSENGER'S SIDE WHEEL DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE RESIDENCE. AN UNKNOWN DEALER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED BY THE MANUFACTURER TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO SOUTH CHICAGO DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP LOCATED AT (7340 S WESTERN AVE, CHICAGO, IL 60636) WHICH WAS STILL PENDING. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 71. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

BATTERY LIGHT COMES ON. RECALL FOR SHIFTER WAS FIXED, BUT THE FUSE BOX IS NOW BURNT. IT'S IS A SPECIAL PART. I THINK THAT THERE IS A CORRELATION BETWEEN THE RECALL THEN PART IS INTER THE BATTERY AND NEAR FUSE BOX,

VEHICLE IS MAKING A RATTLING SOUND WHEN TURNING AT A SLOW SPEED. SOUNDS LIKE METAL SCRAPING. HAPPENS WHEN TURNING BELOW 10MPH ON A SLANTED OR STRAIGHT ROAD. AND SHIFTER CABLE BRUSHING IS WEARING. ACTIVE RECALL BUT NO REMEDY AVAILABLE.

AFTER VEHICLE HASN'T BEEN DRIVE. FOR FEW HOURS, IT WILL STALL WHILE IN MOTION. VEHICLE WILL BE IN MOTION THE. SHUT OFF AFTER RELEASING THE ACCELERATOR, THIS AFFECTS THE VEHICLE STEERING ALSO. RESTARTING THE VEHICLE BY TURNING THE KEY WHILE IN PARK AND THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO CYCLE THE STARTER AND EVENTUALLY START BACK UP AFTER THE STARTER CRANKING. WHILE THE BATTERY LIGHT IS ON. BATTERY HAS BEEN CHECKED AND NO ISSUES THERE. AFTER RESEARCH, THIS TENDS TO BE AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THESE MODELS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE DART. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE MADE AN ABNORMAL VACUUMING SOUND. THE SOUND BEGAN WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL MADE AN ABNORMAL SQUEAKING SOUND WHEN TURNED AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL FELT HEAVY WHEN DEPRESSED. ALL OF THE WARNING INDICATORS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DODGE COUNTRY (1902 E. CENTRAL EXPY, KILLEEN TX, 76541) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

I STARTED THE CAR MOVED THE SHIFTIER TO REVERSE TOOK FOOT OFF BRAKE STARTED TO REVERSE SLOWLY. THE CAR JUMPED FORWARD ON TO CURB AND GRASSY AREA DESTROYING UNDER BODY SHIELDS MAYBE BECAUSE OF RECALL 19V-293

TAKATA RECALL. MY CAR GEAR SHIFT CABLE CAME APART WHILE SHIFTING GEARS TO PARK. I AM UNABLE TO MOVE FROM DIFFERENT GEARS. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS OF REVIEWS CONCERNING THE GEAR SHIFT MALFUNCTION ONCE A CAR REACHES 70K MILES.

I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR. THE MAIN PROBLEM IS WHEN THE OIL GETS LOW, THE OIL LIGHT DOESN'T COME ON, AND THE CAR SHUTS DOWN. THIS CAUSES THE STEERING WHEEL TO LOCK UP, AND IT BECOMES HARD TO PROPERLY PULL THE CAR OVER SAFELY. WHEN WILL DODGE RECALL THIS ENGINE?!!

I STARTED MY VEHICLE THIS MORNING AND IT STARTED ROUGH AND WAS SURGING. AT TAKEOFF THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING STRANGLY. SLOWED TO MAKE A UTURN, TURNED TO THE LEFT SLIGHTLY AND MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED, CAR SHUT DOWN AND WAS BARELY ABLE TO BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN. I ALMOST RAN A MAN OVER TRYING TO STOP AS I COULD NOT STEER. THE BATTERY SYMBOL POPPED UP ON THE DASH. I POPPED CAR IN PARK. REMOVED KEY. RESTARTED VEHICLE AND IT TOOK A GOOD 5-10 SECONDS BEFORE TURNING OVER. THERE WAS HESITATION UPON START. AFTER BEGINNING TO DRIVE IT SEEMED TO BE DRIVING NORMALLY..THIS SEEMS TO BE A BIT OF A TICKING TIME BOMB AND A VERY LARGE SAFETY ISSUE AND SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE ACROSS ALL MODELS

WHEN STARTING THE CAR THE RPMS RACE ON THEIR OWN. IT ACCELERATES ON IT OWN. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. TAKING MULTIPLE TIMES TO START THE VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENED IN A PARKING LOT. THESE THINGS ARE HAPPENING RANDOMLY.

DRIVING ON THE OPEN ROAD THE CAR LOOSES POWER, CAN'T STEER CAN'T ACCELERATE. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN TRAVELING AT 70 MPH EVEN AT 35 THRU THE CITY. I HAVE NOTICED ONLINE OF ALL THE COMPLAINTS AND DODGE JUST SAYS I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO TELL YOU. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED AS SOME ONE WILL DIE DRIVING THESE CARS IN THIS CONDITION!! READ WERE NUMEROUS PEOPLE HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THIS. HAPPENS MORE WHEN TURNING IN MY CASE.

THE CAR JUST WILL RANDOMLY STALL. NO INDICATION IT IS GOING TO DO THIS. THIS CAR IS UNSAFE. I AM TO THE POINT I HATE DRIVING IT. I TOOK IT TO SHOP AND EVERYONE SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. I HAVE ONLY OWNED THE CAR SINCE 5/19

TAKATA RECALL WHILE DIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH I WAS TAKING A LEFT TURN INTO MY NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN CAUSING ME TO STRIKE MY DRIVERS SIDE FRONT WHEEL ON THE CURB DISABLING MY VEHICLE. THE MOTOR STILL CONTINUED TO REV AT A HIGH RPM FOR 10-15 SECONDS AFTER IMPACT WITHOUT THE ACCELERATOR BEING TOUCHED.

I BOUGHT A 2015 DODGE DART SXT WITH 32996 MILES ON IT.GOT THE CAR ON 4-4-2017.I HAD IT NOT EVEN A MONTH AND IT'S BEEN ONE THING AFTER ANOTHER WITH IT.FIRST IT DONT SHIFT PROPERLY IT GETS TO A HIGH RPM THEN IT SHOOT YOU FORWARD AT A FAST SPEED.THEN A VERY BAD KNOCKING IN THE FRONT END WHEN YOU TURN THE WHEEL FROM LEFT TO RIGHT WHILE PARKED.THE DEALERSHIP LOOKED AT IT 3 TIMES AND COULDN'T DIAGNOSE IT BUT DID TELL ME IT NEEDS TWO UP DATES THAT WOULD FIX THE SHIFTING ISSUE,THEN SAID I NEEDED A NEW RIGHT SHIFT AXEL AND I ASKED THEM TO CHECK THE RIGHT HUB CAUSE THE OTHER SHOP TOLD ME THE HUB WAS BAD. WELL THEY WERE RIGHT ON THAT. SO DODGE FIXED THOSE THINGS FOR ME.THEN SAID MY KNOCKING WAS FROM THE AXEL.TWO DAYS LATER ITS STILL KNOCKING I HAD ANOTHER SHOP...

THE STEERING WILL CATCH OR LOCK AT TIMES WHILE DRIVING. INCREASED EFFORT IS NEEDED TO TURN CAUSING OVER STEERING WITH POSSIBLE LOSS OF CONTROL. *TR

MY CAR KEEPS CUTTING OFF WHILE I'M DRIVING. THE BATTER LIGHT COMES ON WITHOUT ANY WARNING. AFTER THE BATTER LIGHT COMES ON THE ONLY THING I CAN DO IS STEER, THE CAR STARTS TO SLOW DOWN, I CAN'T EXCEL AT ALL, RAIDO AND ALL LIGHTS CUT OFF AS WELL. ONCE THE CAR COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP, I'LL START IT BACK UP SOMETIMES IT'LL START RIGHT BACK UP, OR I'LL HAVE TO HOLD THE KEY DOWN A FEW SECONDS FOR IT TO START. THE CAR HAVE STOPPED ON ME WHILE DRIVING MOVE THAN 5 TIMES. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR AND THE FIRST FEW TIME THEY SAID AFTER THEY RAN ALL OF THE TEST THEY COULDN'T GET THE VEHICLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. ANOTHER TIME THEY ASKED COULD THEY KEEP THE VEHICLE OVER NIGHT AND HAVE A MECHANIC DRIVE THE CAR HOME AND BACK...

I'VE HAD MY CAR FOR OVER A YEAR NOW AND I HAVE 9850 MILES ON MY VEHICLE. AROUND 1AM AFTER COMING BACK HOME FROM WORK GOING 60MPH, I HEARD A LOUD CLUNK IN MY STEERING WHEEL AND I DECIDED TO NOT PAY ATTENTION TO IT BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS THE ROAD. I TRIED TO SWITCH LANES, WHEN SUDDENLY I COULDN'T MOVE MY STEERING WHEEL AT ALL. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ONE BEHIND ME SO I STARTED TO SLOW DOWN AS SOON AS I HIT ABOUT 13MPH MY STEERING WHEEL BECAME UNSTUCK AND I WAS ABLE TO MOVE AGAIN. THE NEXT DAY I TOOK IT TO HUNTER DODGE IN LANCASTER CA AND WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN THEY TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE.

JUST BOUGHT THE 2015 DODGE DART ON 9/2/15 . I HAVE 71 MILES ON IT RIGHT NOW. WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND I COULD BARELY TURN THE WHEEL. TOOK A LOT OF EFFORT TO TURN THE WHEEL. I DID NOT LOSS ENGINE POWER AT ALL. I HAD A STEERING WHEEL LIGHT ON WITH AN EXCLAIMATION MARK. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND IT WAS FINE. STARTED DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND 5 MINS LATER IT DID IT AGAIN AND I COULD NOT STEER

WHILE DRIVING IN THE MORNING IN A NEIGHBORHOOD SPEED LIMIT OF 30, I DECREASE SPEED TO COME TO A FULL STOP AND SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF ENGINE POWER AND POWER STEERING AT APPROXIMATELY 10MPH. VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO START UNTIL THE 3RD ATTEMPT. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALER AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE UNTIL THE VEHICLE STALLED THE 2ND TIME. THEY UPDATED PCM/TCM, BUT STILL HAD STALLING ISSUES. THIS VEHICLE HAD STALLED OVER 5 TIMES AND THE DEALER WERE NOT ABLE TO PIN POINT THE ISSUE. MY VEHICLE IS NOW AT APPROXIMATELY 15,400 MILES. I FEEL LIKE I'M ON THE EDGE AND UNSAFE EVERY TIME I GET BEHIND THE WHEEL. ALSO HAD TROUBLE WITH THE AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS NOT TURNING ON AND AS WELL AS THE REAR PASSENGER WINDOWS NOT CLOSING.

VEHICLE HAD A DEFECTIVE, BROKEN CLASP SPRING WHICH COULD HAVE ALLOWED THE AIR BAG TO DEPLOY AT ANY TIME WHILE DRIVING....CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO THE DRIVER, PASSENGERS AND ALL OTHERS IN THE PATH OF THE VEHICLE DRIVING CALIFORNIA HIGHWAYS. THE VEHICLE WAS DEFECTIVE FROM THE MOMENT IT WAS DRIVEN OFF OF THE CAR LOT. *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2015 DODGE DART ON JANUARY 19, 2015. THE VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 1800 MILES ON IT. THIS MORNING WHEN BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY I TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL TO BACK INTO THE ROAD. WHILE TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL I HEARD A RUBBING AND A SLIGHT CLANKING SOUND. TO GIVE A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON MY EXPERIENCE. ONE OF MY JOB FUNCTIONS IS DRIVING NEW VEHICLE'S TO LISTEN FOR UNIDENTIFIED INTERIOR NOISES. I ALSO INSPECT NEW VEHICLE'S FOR ANY TYPE OF EXTERIOR PAINT DEFECTS, BODY PANEL FIT AND ALIGNMENT, PAINT SEEDS, CHIPS, ETC...I BASICALLY INSPECT THE VEHICLE'S BEFORE THEY ARE SHIPPED TO THE DEALER. I WORK FOR A TOP AUTOMOTIVE MAKER. WITH THIS SAID, I UNDERSTAND THAT WHEN VEHICLES ARE NEW QUITE A FEW OF THEM MAKE SUSPENSION SOUNDS SIMILAR TO WHAT I DESCRIBED BECAUSE, THEY ARE STILL TIGHT, NOT BROKEN IN , ETC...THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT THE...
