THE TPMS WARNING LIGHT CAME ON BUT TIRES WERE FINE. AT THAT TIME THE ENGINE WOULD STALL AT TAKE OFF AND FOR A FEW MILES AFTER. AS FOR THE AIRBAG, WHEN I ADJUST THE DRIVERS SEAT, THE AIRBAG LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND STAY ON DURING THE DRIVE. I CHECKED FOR RECALLS ON THIS SITE AND FOUND THAT BOTH OF THEM WERE ON BUT WHEN I CALLED THE WARRANTY THEY SAID THAT MY VIN WAS NOT LISTED BUT THE YEAR MAKE AND MODEL WAS. I TOOK IT IN AND THEY CHARGED ME $100.00 FOR DIAGNOSTICS! THEY SAID THEY FIXED IT BUT IT STILL STALLS AND THE LIGHT STILL COMES ON.

WHILE DRIVING INTO THE CITY I NOTICE THE SMELL AGAIN OF BURNING PLASTIC, THE AIR CONDITIONER SWITCH WAS HOT AND STUCK IN THE HIGH POSITION. I HAD TO BREAK AWAY THE KNOB TO THE LOWER POSITION OF THE FAN SPEED TO STOP THE BURNING SMELL AND THEN OFF. THIS IS THE SECOND SWITCH IVE HAD TO REPLACE SINCE I'VE HAS THIS CAR IVE ALSO FOUND OTHER PEOPLE ALSO HAVING THE HIGH POSITION OF THIS SWITCH FAIL DUE TO THE CONTACT GETTING HOT DUE TO ITS INABILITY TO CARRY THE CURRENT REQUIRED FOR THE FAN AT HIGH SPEED. THIS CURRENT CAUSED THE OLD SWITCH CONTACTS TO OVER HEAT AND MELT THE PLASTIC. I TOLD LANDERS DODGE ABOUT THIS THE FIRST TIME IT FAILED AND THEY SAID IT WAS JUST A BAD SWITCH,,AND NOW A SECOND ONE? NO THERES SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE DESIGN OF THE SWITCH CONTACTS THAT IT KEEPS BURNING THESE OUT! IVE ALSO HAD THE LIGHTER SHORT OUT, THE CENTER CONTACT MOVED AND SHORTED AGAINST THE NEGATIVE OF THE HOUSING , IT GOT HOT ENOUGH TO MELT THE CERAMIC ISOLATOR BEFORE WIRE FUSE WENT. IVE SAVED LL THE PARTS.

I'VE OWNED THE CAR SINCE IT WAS NEW. A COUPLE OF TIMES THIS PAST SUMMER WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK, THE FUEL OVERFLOWED BEFORE THE GAS NOZZLE AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS A FAULTY GAS NOZZLE. RECENTLY IT HAS BEEN OVERFLOWING EVERY TIME I FILL UP, REGARDLESS OF WHICH GAS STATION OR PUMP. THE PAST 5-6 TIMES IT HAS OVERFLOWED. IT IS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF FUEL THAT COMES BACK, AND IT DOESN'T JUST TRICKLE OUT. IF YOU ARE NOT STANDING OFF TO THE SIDE IT WILL SPRAY YOU. THEN IT RUNS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE CAR AND THE LEFT REAR WHEEL. I AM CAREFUL TO STOP THE PUMP BEFORE IT GETS FULL, BUT EVEN THEN IT SOMETIMES OVERFLOWS. I WOULD ESTIMATE THE AVERAGE AMOUNT OF FUEL SPILLAGE TO BE AROUND 12 OUNCES. *TR

I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH MY THROTTLE BODY AND LOSING POWER IN MY CAR. ALL MY ATTEMPTS TO FIX IT HAVE FAILED. NOW MY CAR WILL ONLY GET UP TO ABOUT TEN MPH. WITH THE LIGHTING BOLT FLASHING ON MY DASH BOARD. I HAVE TALKED TO MECHANICS AT A DODGE DEALERSHIP AND THE SAY THEY HAVEN'T HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM AND THAT IS A FLAT OUT LIE. THEY JUST KEEP TRYING TO FIX THIS AND THAT AND IT DOES NOT WORK. THIS PART NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED AND DODGE TRYING TO COVER UP WHAT HUNDREDS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT IS NOT FAIR TO US AS CONSUMERS SPENDING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS OUT OF POCKET AND THERE IS ONLY TEMPORARY FIXES. *TR
