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 wife ran over a fist sized rock. It split the rim in the center. Did not damage the tire,the car only had 1700 mile on it. Darts sits lower then other similar compact cars. The rock did no under damage or body damage. Will hear from manufacture in 48 hours.
