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'm not sure what the hell the deal is with the awful noise especially when I first start the car leaving work or home. Its so annoying and embarrassing but does anybody know what it is?
Grinding noise in steering wheel/column when turning going 5-10Mph (such as parking in lot) when weather is cold. Noise isn't there when temperature outside is warmer than 50 deg F.
