THE HEAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WENT OUT WHILE THE DRIVERS SIDE STILL HAD HEAT. WE WERE DRIVING IN SNOW AND ICE AND HAD VERY LIMITED VISIBILITY OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AS WELL AS THE SIDE WINDOWS WHEN CHECKING FOR TRAFFIC WHILE DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE IN DODGE AVENGERS. THE ACTUATOR WAS CHANGED WHICH DID NOT HELP. THE DRIVERS SIDE HEAT IS NOW VERY REDUCED WHICH IS CAUSING MORE VISIBILITY ISSUES IN DRIVING IN SNOW AND RAIN

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE DOING ABOUT 65MPH AT 5AM, I DISENGAGED THE CRUISE CONTROL ON MY VEHICLE, MY CAR ALL THE SUDDEN TURNED OFF AND LOST COMPLETE POWER, INCLUDING STEERING, BRAKES, AND ACCELERATION. THE KEY WAS STILL IN THE ON POSITION. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD! HAD I NOT BEEN ABLE TO COAST AND ENGAGE THE EMERGENCY BREAK, I WOULD HAVE CRASHED AND MOST LIKELY SUFFERED SERIOUS BODILY INJURIES OR DEATH. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME AND I HAVE READ THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHERS ALREADY AS WELL. THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILED BECAUSE MY ENGINE TURNED OFF AS WELL AS THE DASHBOARD COMPLETELY WENT DARK TO INCLUDE HEADLIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS, AND THE HAZARD LIGHTS. MY VEHICLE HAS STOPPED IN MOTION ALL THE SUDDEN FOR NO APPARENT REASON TWO TIMES IN ONE WEEK. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALERSHIP TO GET THE VEHICLE DIAGNOSED BUT I AM STILL AFRAID TO DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE IT MAY HAPPEN AGAIN WHILE DRIVING EITHER ON THE HIGHWAY, INTERSTATE, OR ON ANY STREET. I AM NOT 100% CERTAIN WHAT CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO TURN OFF WHILE IN MOTION 3 TIMES ALREADY IN ONE WEEK BUT IT HAS CREATED A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD FOR MYSELF AND OTHER MOTORIST ON THE HIGHWAY/INTERSTATE. I BELIEVE IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM OR ENGINE BECAUSE THE LOST OF COMPLETE POWER IS WHAT OCCURS EACH TIME.

My TIPM is failing. Due to this, my vehicle stalls randomly with no repair codes being shown after stalling. Everything from the battery to the catalytic converter has been replaced to no avail. I even almost was killed on the freeway coming home from work one morning because the vehicle stalled after running fine for a couple of weeks. This has been going on for almost a year and I have replaced so many things on this car I basically should have just cut my losses and purchased a new one.

It seems to be a common issue that I'm experiencing as well. When I turn the heat on it only blows hot on the driver side. So depending on the weather conditions, it may completely fog up the passenger side of my window. Making it dangerous for driving when you're trying to defrost a window with cold air.

The seats move around as if they are not bolted down properly. Any speed if you hit a small bump or so much as move other then straight it’s extremely noticeable. I don’t think it is safe and my kids are in this car daily and I was hoping a recall would have already been called on this because I know I’m mot the only one with this issue with both front seats moving around as if it’s a carnival ride. And the cruise control stopped working in 2016. Also has always made a weird sound under the hood and come to find out I have had a bad transmission the whole time I have owned this car, also a common issue I have heard from MANY People. Also these cars have several different censor problems that keep having to be replaced as well as energy draining batteries more than they should. The hoses and injectors also have been a major problem. I thought I just got unlucky with my car but everyone I know has soooo many problems with these cars it’s actually crazy they didn’t stop making them sooner. I’m the only driver and owner of this car and drive like a grandma I have been told so I do know it’s not how I have been with the car, also regular oil changes and maintenance as needed on top of thousands to keep her running as I bought it brand new and refuse to let it die on me after it’s paid off.

MY CAR KEEPS BLOWING ROAD DUST OUT OF ALL THE VENTS WHEN I'M DRIVING DOWN A GRAVEL ROAD DOESN'T MATTER THE SPEED AND IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE HEATER AND A/C ARE ON OR OFF. WHEN I TURN ON MY HEATER/A/C IT RUNS THROUGH THE DEFROST, FACE VENTS, AND FLOORS VENTS, BEFORE IT WILL FINALLY SETTLE ON THE AREA I HAVE IT SET AT. DODGE REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THERE'S A PROBLEM AND REFUSES TO A RECALL. THEY KNOW IT STEMS FROM THE HEATER CORE NOT BEING PROPERLY CLEANED BEFORE INSTALLING IT IN THE VEHICLE.

I HAVE A 2012 DODGE AVENGER WITH APPROXIMATELY 76200 MILES ON IT. WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP LIGHT MY TRANSMISSION MADE A CLUNKING SOUND AND MY VEHICLE WOULD ONLY GO ABOUT 30 MILES PER HOUR BUT THE RPMS BUT JUMP UP TO ABOUT 7000 AND STAY THERE. I WAS ON A FOUR LANE ROADWAY GOING THROUGH A CITY WHEN THIS HAPPENED. ENDED UP MY TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED WITH 76,000 MILES ON MY VEHICLE. TRANSMISSION ISSUES SEEM TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE DODGE AVENGERS. AND OF COURSE WHEN I CALLED DODGE CUSTOMER CARE THEY STATED THEY CAN DO NOTHING FOR ME ON ANY KIND OF REIMBURSEMENT. TRANSMISSIONS SHOULD LAST LONGER THAN 76000 MILES! VERY DISAPPOINTED IN DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE TEAM.

WHILE DOING THIS THE VEHICLE IS INCAPABLE OF PICKING UP SPEED OR MAINTAINS SPEED SAFELY OF OVER 20 TO 25 MILES PER HOUR. DIAGNOSTIC CODE IS P0882 ON MY CODE SCANNER STATING POSSIBLE LOOSE PIN CONNECTION OR CONNECTIONS, LOW VOLTAGE TO TRANSMISSION CONTROL TIPM ( TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE ), TCM ( TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE ) ETC., CAR WAS IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY AND WOULD NOT ACCELLERATE TO BEYOND 20-25 MILES PER HOUR MAX AS CAR WILL NOT UPSHIFT. AFTER CHECKING ALL CONNECTIONS I RESET AND ERASED CODE AND CAR DROVE A FEW MILES NORMALLY AND SHIFTING PROPERLY BEFORE DOING SAME AGAIN WITHIN 5 MINUTES. HAD CAR TOWED 25 MILES HOME AT NIGHT. SPOKE TO SERVICE TECH AT LOCAL DODGE DEALER. HE STATED THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THESE MODEL CARS ALL THE WAY THRU THE NEW DODGE CHALLENGER. AND MYSELF I STATE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS YOU UNEXPECTEDLY CAN NOT AVOID SLOWING DOWN AND YOU CAN NOT SPEED UP TO AVOID A REAR END COLLISION BY OTHERS DRIVING BEHIND YOU

THIS COMPANY NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE!
