“Love you drive for a few minutes and then it completely stops and it will not go. It starts shaking and will not go. It has been to the dealership and they said these cars are known for electrical issues. Had something electrical.”
“Shifter cable bushing failure - 1st recall in 2019, took to Dodge, was replaced in April of 2020. October 2025, safety recall replacement for the 1st recall fix as the shifter cable bushing failure, and as of May 12th 2026, there is NO remedy. My bushing broke April 2026 and I can't get it repaired. With no cable bushing, I cannot use my transmission gear shift in the car, every time I need to shift to either P, D, N and R, I have to manually get out of the car, open the hood, reach inside the hot engine to manually shift the gears.I contacted Stellantis Customer Service that handles recalls. The ONLY option they had for me for this October 2025 recall was to get my car fixed at a mechanic or Dodge dealership and send them the paid invoice so they could reimburse me for the money I spent. I told them that was unacceptable to me because 1.) how can you announce a national public recall in October 2025 and it's May of 2026 and STILL do and not have literally the small part (bushing size) that you've recalled? 2.) Dodge telling me to get the part fixed for $500 or more at a mechanic when the part that doesn't exist ANYWHERE that fits my Dart? Make it make sense!…”
“When I first got this car three years ago I had a shift problem in the transmission it got stuck in the gear and I couldn't pull the key out when I did some research I realize that there was a recall so of course I went to the dealership and have them take a look at it to fix it they said that I will still be charge in the problem wasn't even originally fixed they rigged it they just made it to where I could pull off but I was still charged and now a couple years later I am having transmission problems again and the dealership is saying that I need a transmission as I am doing a research I realize that my transmission again has a recall on it.”
“2015 DODGE DART (CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER) / (CLUTCH CABLE) PREMATURELY FAILED IN WHEREFORE THE HYDRAULIC CLUTCH SYSTEM IS DEFECTIVE THE 'CLUTCH PEDAL LOSES PRESSURE, STICKS TO THE FLOOR, AND FAILS TO ENGAGE/DISENGAGE GEARS." WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON MAY 22ND, 2020 THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ENGAGE IN CLUTCH SHIFTING AND WAS A RESULT OF POTENTIAL COLLISION IN OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE. THEREFORE, RESULT THE DODGE DART WILL STALL, FAIL TO ACCELERATE AND SUFFER FROM PREMATURE FAILURE OF THE CLUTCH COMPONENTS, INCLUDING THE "CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER AND RESERVOIR HOSE, CLUTCH SLAVE CYLINDER, RELEASE BEARING, CLUTCH DISC, PRESSURE PLATE AND FLYWHEEL.' *TR”
“WELL FIST THING EVER WENT OUT WAS AC COMPRESSER THE DEAL SHIP WANTED OVER1,200 TO FIX THAT . THEN MY GEAR SHIFT WENT OUT . NOW MY BREAKS ARE MAKING A NOISE BUT THEIR NOT BAD . THEN WHEN YOU GET 20 MILES PR CAR WANT SHIFT UNTIL YOU TAKE YOU FOOT OF GAS THEN IT WILL CHANG GEARS .”
“MY CAR SWITCHES GEARS WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. IT ALSO TAKES A LONG TIME FOR THE KEY TO BE RELEASED FROM THE IGNITION WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK. A GLITCH IN THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CAUSES MY LIGHTS TO GO DIM OR COMPLETELY TURN OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING.”
