Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Blind Spot Detection says 'unavailable'. The first time this happened, it was followed by the radio & heater randomly turning off & on and all things electrical flashing off and on every few seconds. It was taken to the dealership & found the turn signal socket to show a high resistance when hot. After just over a month of everything working normally, it has now gone back to square one, starting with the blind spot sensors, just as before. Uploads are from when I had the car at the dealership in May. Blind spot sensors acting up once again on 6/20/22. Which is the date I put for when the incident occured.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
On December 13, 2021 my 2016 Dodge Dart shut down while driving and would not start back up. Had it towed to a repair shop, they could not duplicate the problem. I contacted Chrysler and the agent who helped me said there is no known issues with this particular vehicle. I found at that was a lie with a little google search. Picked my vehicle up and immediately took it to the Dodge dealership. They checked the oil level and it was so low that the tech said that if it would have been driven much longer it would have completely disabled the engine. No oil light, oil was changed recently, no reason for this to have happened. Found out there was a campaign to update software to the PCM module so that was completed along with an oil change. This created a COMPLETELY unsafe situation, luckily there was very little traffic on the roadway at the time. Vehicles with this issue should be recalled or the engine needs to be replaced.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
This morning when backing out of the driveway, the car got stuck into neutral And I was stuck in the middle of the street unable to back up or drive. After pushing it into the driveway, I discovered the shift cable was no longer attached to the shifter lever. The bushing was no longer in the hole for the shifter cable and the bushing itself was still attached to the shifter lever bolt. In March of this year, I took my car to the dodge dealer to have the two recalled parts replaced. One was the shifter cable bushing. When I called the Dodge dealer, they told me to have the car towed to their service department and they would have it looked at and replaced as soon as possible. I verified with them the bushing was covered under the mopar 24 month part warranty. I had the vehicle towed to them. Later, someone from the service department called trying to tell me that I needed to pay a $277 diagnostic fee and I advised them I would not be paying them anything because I took photos and printed out the photos showing them that the bushing was missing inside of the shifter cable that they supposedly replaced 5 months ago. Either they never replaced it or they replaced it with another faulty bushing. In looking at the bushing currently broken on my vehicle, it is yellow in color. When I looked up the parts number on Mopar’s website, the photo of the new bushing is white.
