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.

The car after the start it smells like some electrical circuit is burning from inside and it comes mostly after 10 or 20 mins drive intensively and at the same time the car starts to jerk when accelerating.
While driving my car at times will shift into neutral, the car says service transmission, service shifter, autostick unavailable, gear not available and put car in reverse and try another gear and a lot of lights show up on the dash. The last time it happened was on Friday 12/20/19 I was at a stoplight and the car began to beep and stating service transmission etc. As stated before, I then had some people push me off the road since the car will just go into neutral no matter what gear it is in. After the car being left there until Sunday 12/22/19 it would still not work, I had the car towed to my home. And it started working again, I went around the block and once going 40 mph the car started beeping and went into neutral and saying all the things said before, I was pushed back home. This morning I tried it again and as soon as I turn it on it states the same service transmission etc. I have had my car towed 4 separate occasions within the last 6 months
