CarComplaints.com Notes: The first year of the new Dodge Dart had a rough start, with owners reporting a disproportionate number of engine and transmission problems.
For transmission, the main complaints are transmission failure & rough shifting. So far, average mileage for transmission failure is 25,000 miles. Not good.
For engine problems, it usually starts with the engine light coming on for any number of reasons: bad sensors, ignition coil replacement, bad wiring, faulty gas cap ... dealers are replacing various components with varying degrees of success, or telling owners they can't duplicate the issue.
I would park my car for more than four hours when I decided to use the car I would try to unlock with the key fob. Nothing happened tried to unlock trunk nothing. Tried to start the car nothing. I ended up having to use the emergency key to unlock the door then the key fob would magically connect and work again. I know weird right. I took it to the dealer and of course the stupid car wouldn't act up for them so I am stuck waiting to see if dodge comes up with a fix for this issue.
