2013 Dodge Dart electronic stability control (esc) problems

“I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR A RECALL AND AS OF MAY 13TH I'M STILL WITHOUT MY VEHICLE AND STILL HAVING TO MAKE THE PAYMENT PLUS INSURANCE. I DON'T KNOW WHEN I WILL GET MY CAR BUT IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP ENOUGH TIMES I FILED FOR A BREECH OF WARRANTY BUT CHRYSLER ONLY OFFERED ME 4000 TAKE AWAY THE 2000 FOR ATTORNEY FEES SO 2000 IS WHAT I WOULD HAVE WALKED AWAY WITH. I DID NOT ACCEPT THE OFFER AND NOW I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO. MY CAR DOESN'T HAVE A REMEDY FOR THE ISSUE BUT IT'S HAD TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS SINCE DAY 1 HAD NEW ENGINE NEW TURBO NEW STARTER NEW GASKETS NEW RADIATOR AND MUCH MORE AND NOTHING HAS BEEN BECAUSE OF NEGLECT. I TRULY FEEL I HAVE A LEMON ON MY HANDS AND NEED HELP GETTING INTO A SAFE CAR. THE DEALERSHIP WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT TOLD ME TO GET A LAWYER SO I DID BUT UNLESS WE AGREED ON AN AMOUNT THEY WOULDN'T PROCEED. MY CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND I'M TRYING TO GET A LAWYER THAT CAN TAKE CARE OF THIS OR HELP ME GET A SAFER CAR FOR ME AND MY KIDS.*DT CONSUMER STATED PCM/TCM HAS BEEN A RECALL IN THE PAST ENGINE LIGHT BEING ON IS CODE P2096 WHICH CAUSED LEAK IN ONE OF THE HOSES.*JB *JS”

“'TAKATA RECALL' CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. HAVING ISSUES WITH TRUNK POPPING OPEN WHEN DRIVING OR JUST AT RANDOM TIMES. CAR WON'T START ALL THE TIME AND WHEN IT DOES IT'S REAL JUMPY AND SHAKES A LOT.”

“WHILE DRIVING THE SCREEN WILL RANDOMLY GO COMPLETELY BLACK AND THEN START FLICKERING WHITE - MY DASH IS NOW DOING THE SAME, SIMULTANEOUSLY. HOWEVER, THE SCREEN LIGHTS (SPEED, MILES, MPG, ETC) STAY DIM TO WHERE I CAN'T EVEN READ WHAT IS SAYS. MY SPEEDOMETER AND GAUGES WILL GIVE OUT AND THEN PROCEED TO QUICKLY FLICKER UP AND DOWN. AFTER ABOUT 30 SECONDS OF THIS HAPPENING, THE WHOLE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM RESETS ITSELF. THIS HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES WITHIN THE LAST TWO DAYS, WITHIN A MAXIMUM OF 4 TOTAL HOURS DRIVING TIME. WHEN STARTING MY CAR, IT HESITATES TO START - IT MAKES CLICKING NOISES PRIOR TO ACTUALLY STARTING. THE BATTERY IS FAIRLY NEW AS WELL. MY CENTER CONSOLE RANDOMLY STOPS WORKING, I HAVE ZERO CONTROL OVER THE RADIO / CLIMATE FUNCTION. EVEN AFTER DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY, THE PROBLEM RESUMES. THE UCONNECT DOESN'T WORK - NO PHONE SYSTEM, OR BLUETOOTH MUSIC. THE BACK-UP CAMERA HAS COMPLETELY GONE OUT. THERE SEEMS TO BE SEVERAL ISSUES WITH THE DODGE DART THAT GO UNSOLVED AND ARE A HUGE SAFETY RISK.”

“RECALL MAY BE THE PROBLEM. CAR RAN JUST FINE UNTIL WE SHUT IT OFF WAITED 30 MINUTES TRYING TO TURN IT BACK ON AND MESSAGE DISPLAYED SERVICE TRANSMISSION NO CURE FOUND AUTOSTICK NOT RECOGNIZED. VEHICLE RAN FOR 400 MILES DROVE PERFECTLY FINE WE STOPPED FOR A BITE TO EAT FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES AND CAR WOULD NOT START AGAIN.”

“THE BATTERY LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLICKERING ON AND OFF, AND THE VEHICLE STARTED IDLING AND DECREASING IN SPEED FOR NO REASON. WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE IT DID NOT WANT TO DO SO, AND AGAIN THE LIGHTS AND POWER STARTED FLICKERING TURNING ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY. UPON PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF, AT WHICH TRYING TO RESTART, THE ENGINE DID NOT TURN OVER ONLY CLICKING NOISES. INSTEAD STILL WHAT SEEMED LIKE A SURGING OF POWER WITH ALL RANDOM LIGHTS FLICKERING AND STEREO TURNING ON AND OFF. THIS ISSUE HAD NOT ONLY HAPPENED ONCE BUT NOW TWICE, AND I AM CURRENTLY LEFT CAR LESS AS THE ISSUE CANNOT BE FIXED OR FOUND. A TUNE UP WAS DONE ON MY CAR, WIRES REPLACED, THE BATTERY REPLACED TWICE, AND A MODULE REPLACED DUE TO THE FAN FOR AIR CONDITIONING INTERMITTENTLY TURNING OFF AND ON ON IT'S OWN FOR NO RHYME OR REASON. I HAVE RECEIPTS FOR ALL STATED ABOVE REPLACEMENTS. HOWEVER, I HAVE KEPT THEM IN MY CAR RECENTLY DUE TO HAVE TO REPLACE MULTIPLE PARTS WITHIN ONLY A COUPLE MONTHS OF THE PART BEING REPLACED. NO ONE SEEMS TO BE ABLE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS TAKING PLACE, AND I AM CERTAINLY TIRED OF PAYING FOR PARTS TO REPLACE THE PROBLEM WHEN…”

“SINCE MARCH 2019 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ONE 3 TIMES. MY CAR HAS EITHER STALLED IN MIDDLE OF INTERSECTION AND/OR HAS A BUCKING SENSATION AND THEN CHECK ENGINE TURNS ON. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT IT KEEPS OCCURRING. ONE TIME THEY REPLACED BATTERY, NEXT TIME RECALL V34 AND AGAIN TODAY. THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING GOING ON WITH THIS MODEL. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE.THIS HAPPENS WHILE I AM DRIVING.”
