Why the 2013 Dodge Dart?

Why Not the 2013 Dodge Dart?

Powertrain performance

Transmission is rough and plagued with issues. Transmission had to be flashed at 5,000 miles for lurching at low speeds. No when coasting downhill the transmission will shudder and car speed will increase.

Ride smoothness

18 inch wheels transmit every single road imperfection.

Audio & nav systems

Bluetooth works whenever it pleases. Will cut out in the middle of a song for no reason. Same thing during a phone call.

Materials & workmanship

Had the center dome lamp replaced for exessive rattling. Fuel door replaced for not sitting flush with body. Interior rattles in other places especially in the cold. Trunk creaks upon closing.

Brand reputation & image

The entire Dodge, Jeep, and Chrysler brand was saved from bankruptcy by Fiat who does not have a good track record for reliability, hope they improve.

We have a 2015 and the car's been nothing but problems from day 1. Transmission is starting to slip already the car has 8k miles on it. The satelight and bluetooth just freeze constantly and the interior is falling apart. The headliner and carpet have been replaced because the glue holding them gave out. Worst issue is the brakes though, the car just doesn't want to stop.. Like you I love the look and MPG of the Dart but , that's where it ends. Would never recommend this car. Dodge wanted to give us a jeep in place of the instead we've called a lawyer and are attempting to lemon law the car.
