No heat on passenger side. Blows only cold air. Did research and several people have had this issue with the same make, model and year on this car. I've been told by mechanic that others had both cars of same to them with same issues. Also mechanic said it will cost thousands of dollars to fix problem. This should be a recall by manufacturer. I purchased my car new zero miles from dealer in 2012. The heat worked fine until last winter.

When starting up the defroster or the heater on the car, there is cold air blowing on the passenger's side and warm air blowing on the driver's side. I am not sure if this is the actuator or another issue. I called Chrysler a few years ago to report this and was told there was no recall.

I bought this vehicle October 22, 2014. After a week went back to dealership explaining the heat did not work on passenger side. He told me to bring it back it. Took it back in, service parts told me it wasn't covered -- manufacturer defect. Took the car in to thomas Dodge they said I needed a new radiator and the heater core was clogged -- cost to repair $1900. I bought the car with 60,000 mi. I've put @20,000 miles on it in 3 years. And bought a service contract. This is obviously a known problem -- I'm just stumped. I need something reliable.

For the past three years, I have been dealing with the heater only blowing warm air on the driver side of the vehicle and cold air on the passenger side. This is a little unbearable in the winter time. To offset the coldness I basically have to warm my car up for about 20 minutes with the passenger side vents closed to drive with a comfortable or reasonable temperature. Upon lifting the front hood to check my antifreeze level, I noticed my overflow tank has about 1 inch of brown sludge at the bottom. After taking my vehicle to 5 different mechanics, the general consensus is this is a heating core problem that is apparently a well-known and documented issue with the Dodge Avenger. To not recognize this problem as a something that should be addressed via a recall is very disturbing. The cost of having this repaired is somewhere in the range of $900 to $1800. While I could "trade" this car in for another I would really prefer to keep this vehicle.

1st complaint is the seatbelt will randomly lock and restrain you and and take several seconds to release. 2nd complaint is my driver side floor is constantly drenched with a fluid when it rains. 3rd complaint is the car shudders and vibrates when driving above 40mph. 4th complaint I was involved in a car accident and my air bags failed to deploy.

Takata recall- I have a vehicle that is currently on recall, I can not safely drive the vehicle so it has been mostly sitting since October when I received a recall notice. I have been in contact many times with the person who is supposed to help and resolve the problem. I have been told that I will be awarded $40 a day for a rental car until the problem has been fixed and I can have my car fixed. However I can not get an appropriate vehicle for $40 a day. Plus I can not afford to pay the money upfront to get a rental vehicle. It would be much cheaper to just have you guys pay it off. My car would of already been paid off if someone would have done so in the begining. I am write to let you know that the car is now having issues; it keeps making a loud clicking noise when it first starts as well as when it stops and periodically when it isn't even being driven. It also leaks water into the trunk when it is wet outside. I am asking once again for this car to be paid off, I can not sell or trade this vehicle and am still making payments on it. I am asking to get this paid off, if not I have contacted a lawyer and will proceed with a law suit, I really do not wish to persue this however it has been nine months and I need this resolved.

The metal coating on all of the door handles is defective. It is peeling up exposing a very sharp edge on all handles that causes deep lacerations on hand.

- Inman, SC, USA

No heat coming in on the passenger side vents. Lustine Dodge did a radiator and heater core flush then told me the heating core needed to be replaced and still want to charge for the flush. I have seen the heating core issue several times reported and needs to be recalled. I am also calling Dodge to register complaint and fraud since they know this is an issue.

I purchased my Dodge Avenger in the month of June and it has been running fine. The only problem that I have with my car is the fact that the passenger's side blows out cold air. I was not aware that the car did that until the weather changed and it was time to use my heat. I looked online before filling out this form and it turns out that almost everyone who purchased this particular vehicle has had the same problem as well. Also everyone says that they don't know why this problem occurs. I've only had my car for 4 months and everything else works fine.

Takata recall........while just sitting there or turning on car, theres a knocking noise is there a recall done research and many people have same issues

- Avondale, AZ, USA

The heater in the car now only blows out hot air on the drivers side. Which in turn only clears off half of the windshield, making the visibility of the road difficult. During the changes in the temperature outside and the humidity levels it is impossible to get a clear view of the road. This condition is happening all the time, the car can be in park idling or in motion. The passenger side of the car can only blow out cold air and does not change with the temperature dial.

Heater not working. (87,000 miles) took the car to the dealership where they gave me an estimate of $2500 to replace the entire coolant system (heater core, radiator, oil cooler, thermostat, water pump). The tech advised there was something restricting flow through the heater core. There is a 100,000 mile power train warranty on the car but they do not agree that the coolant system that cools the engine (power train) should be included. Where did the sediment/sludge come from? possibly oil contamination from the engine (power train)? this problem has been noted in numerous models and Dodge has released a statement to their techs to replace the entire coolant system because they know something they did is wrong. This is very similar to the problem GM had with dex-cool why is there not a recall for this problem the consumer should not be burdened with the failures of the manufacturer to provide a quality product. I hope this matter is taken seriously as it truly is a safety issue. If the heat does not work it is not just uncomfortable for the driver/passengers but it will also reduce visibility through the windshield since the defrost/heat does not work.

At the end of last winter I noticed my heat wasn't working right, and after a few cold days recently I have no heat coming from the passenger side. Pretty warm on the driver side. I see that this is pretty common in Dodge Avengers and would like to have the problem fixed so my family can be warm while we travel.
