When heat or ac is turned on either in motion or not there is a clicking noise coming from the passenger dashboard about five clicks and the clicks will stop and the heat will come out of driver side, but cool air on passenger side. If turned off and back on it will repeat the five clicking noise and the heat will kick on. Also this "heat" is lukewarm at best.

My Dodge Avenger recently started stalling/shutting down while in motion. It has happened 4 times in the last 3 months. I loose all power to the steering wheel and brakes, I cannot control the car. Thankfully this has only happened on local roads. I am terrified if it happens while I am on the highway which I travel everyday on my way to work and back.

I own a Dodge 2012 Avenger and had some issues here and there but this is the first time the vehicle just died for no reason. I was stopped in heavy traffic on a hill, ready to merge onto the freeway. The light turned green and I stepped on the gas peddle and nothing happened. I wasn't sure what was going on so I put on my hazard lights which thankfully worked. I could tell straight away that the car wasn't even on so I put it in park and turned the key and it started up. This is an issue that needs to be addressed by Dodge as it poses a major safety hazard especially if I'm in the middle of heavy traffic on a freeway.

Driving home less then 5 miles it died but started again.

Climate control blows cold air on the passenger side and warm air on the drivers side when heat is on and driving. Engine temperature does not reach normal operating temperature when driving in cold weather. Took to my local trusted mechanic and he diagnosed the heater core is plugged with debris. Looked online and the Dodge Avenger have numerous complaints with that same issue. Called Chrysler group and made a complaint and got a case number. I have an appointment later this week to have it diagnosed by a Dodge dealership for the record.

We have 2 of the exact same 2012 Dodge Avengers on our lot, we are needing a recall extension and possible refund on our expenses for the VIN I provided due to the fact that we have already had to replace this part on the other Avenger that we have. It is my understanding that campaign: 13V552000 and mfr campaign: N52 are on all Dodge Avengers, so to prevent our company for paying for a part that has a recall we are wanting to extend the recall so it covers the Avengers made for the year of 2013. Not just the ones made after the recall that was made half way during that year.

Heater only blows cold air on passenger side. I have been told this is casing sand clogging the radiator, heater core and the oil cooler. This happens as a result of the heater core being the wrong size and Chrysler fixing the issue by casting it in place. This is a safety issue for those of us who live in states where the winter gets bad. While driving in inclement weather the snow, ice, or sleet will begin to accumulate on the windshield and passenger window. The sad part is that this is the second Dodge Avenger I have had with this issue and on both occasions I have been told it is not covered under the powertrain warranty. The bumper to bumper warranty has expired both times before this has become an issue. Chrysler needs to take ownership of this defect and fix it before it causes a death. To have this repair done costs $2500 with no guarantee that it will last.

- Jefferson City, MO, USA

The heat does not blow hot air on the passengers side of the car. This includes the windshield, causing a safety issue as it only clears the fog on one side. Dodge service shop said the issue is a known Chrysler issue, requiring a new radiator, heater core, and coolant bottle. At an estimate of $2235. However Chrysler is refusing to do anything about it claiming it is not a known issue.
