The car stinks like gas, check engine light has been on. Independent service center advised me that the fuel tank has a leak. Check engine code is also detecting a fuel leak. We have bad headaches due to gas smells inside the car. Even my kids compliant of having headaches due to the gas smell. Puddle of gas above the fuel pump. Thank Can catch on fire due to the leak and strong gas smell. The smell wasn-??t to strong until year 2022

When I start my car and depart the car feels like it is gonna die and when I accelerate the gears slip and the engine revs up when I am pressing on the brake and sometimes when I come to a complete stop after exiting the freeway my car dies and the battery light turns on and I have to put it in park and start the car again....

The car stops unexpectedly. It smoked the other day. I don't know what fuel. The gas cap says 85 but the dealer never told me this. The lighting and inside above. Falls out like it has been tampered with. It doesn't run properly. Sometimes it just stops and won't stop. Like it's a bate car. Used by cops. But I wasn't informed when I was sold the car

All the lights in the vehicle vent out, the digital dashboard the touch screen everything that lights up went out. The motor almost died and started to sputter. When I accelerate it has no power then it will take off then no power. When I am stopped the idle is so low it almost dies and the entire car shakes very hard. This started while I was driving at about 30 mph.

The contact owned a 2016 Dodge Dart. While the contact's son was driving 10 mph, the motorists in the rear noticed an unknown liquid pouring from underneath the vehicle. The vehicle immediately burst into flames. The driver managed to pull over and exit the vehicle without injuries. The contact mentioned that driver stated it felt like something had fell from the front of the vehicle. The police and fire departments were at the scene and the fire department extinguished the fire. A police report was filed. The vehicle was totaled and was towed to a tow yard. The dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. The cause of the failure was not determined. The failure mileage was approximately 65,000.

Their were poisonous fumes coming out of the heater, coolant, and radio speaker systems, the vehicle burned too much gas, their was no acceleration in long distance {in ref to: A seaside university section 8 housing survey}, the dealership wouldn't offer diagnostic and warranty service; after I gave them alot of money they told me not to come back to their lot; I gave them the car back; and told the judges to tell them to return all the money I gave them back into my bank account: King county superior court case # 17-2-24602-6 sea filed in seattle.

The previous complaint was filed on September 15, 2016. Ihtsa id number 10906998. Originally the vehicle dying was said to be due to the oil needing to be changed and something with the turbo engine that my vehicle does not have. Since the previous complaint, the computer system was updated at the dealership. There were no other issues after the computer system update. April 10th the vehicle started making a loud rattling sound. The sound begins once you get over 50-55mph and gets louder the faster you go and the longer you drive. I recorded the sound so that the dealership could not find a problem. The service department said it sounds like a bicycle chain. It is scheduled for service for the rattling problem on June 21. Today while backing out of the driveway the vehicle tried stalling. After drive about 2 miles down the road, the vehicle died while pulling out from a stop sign onto the main road. A car swerved into the turning lane to keep from hitting me. This makes the 4th time that the vehicle has died while driving it. This issue is going to cause me or my children to be injured or killed. The vehicle currently has 14, 153 miles.
