I hate this dodge dart. It was brand new when I purchased it in April 2014 I put the 11miles on it test driving it. I swear I pray day in day out that a bomb drops on this POS vehicle. If I knew this car was such crap I wouldn't have purchased it there is no way I can give this to my daughter when she graduates as I had planned. I tell everyone dodge has went to crap now. The gas mileage in this crappy little car is a joke I get 16 in town and if Im lucky 22 high way. My huge 1999 chevy Tahoe pulled better than that at 20 in town and 26 high way. The axles sound like they are going to break. The breaks sound like they are eating metal. The ac doesn't blow cold enough air in my opinion. It is a ugly little car that totally is a disgrace to the original Dodge Dart from back In the day. Dodge has made the Charger crap also who wants a 4 door sports car? oh yeah I forgot they made it family friendly lmao nobody wants their kids in their car. I am going to buy the Camaro its a beast n still looks like a muscle car. As I said I pray night n day a bomb drops on this crappy over priced car or a Tyson trucker smashes it while running one of the many red lights they always seem to run. I tell everyone to stay away from the dodge dart its a joke of a car with false advertising mpg. Oh and that Fiat tranny sounds like @%&^*@*@((@ lol as you can tell it is a very bad word I wished to use

There is absolutely no way you see 16 miles to the gallon. I beat on my 2.4L and still see 26 at a minimum. Second, only some Darts have Fiat transmissions; others use Hyundai sourced transmissions. I've driven two Darts, and both had quiet and smooth shifts. Sounds like you're just talking through your ***. My '14 Dart GT has been a great car so far; I'm actually rather impressed.
Did an ST owner get waxed?

Engine problem on 2013 gt 2.4 liter tiger shark
I bought my 1st new car, a 2013 dodge dart GT 2.4 liter tiger shark (yay!) HOWEVER, its been a disaster. I changed my oil at about 6,000 miles because i use synthetic. After 2,000 my engine stalled as I was driving. Everything locked; steering wheel, brakes etc. There was little to no oil left! my check engine light then popped up. I took it to the dealership and I learned there was a problem on the assembly line when the engine was made. Because of this problem I leak oil to all parts of the engine where it should not be. NEW ENGINE FOR ME!! In all seriousness, I love my car but not these headaches. I have had many more issues but I thought I would talk about my biggest, newest problem.

Hello
Hey everyone I'm an owner of a 2013 Dodge Dart which is obvious because of my username. I'm in love with my dart it's limited edition full leather interior and touch screen navigation. I'm currently enrolled into Lincoln technical institute my goal is to leave college with straight A's with my ASE (Automotive service excellence) and graduate as a master technician. If I can help anyone in any way I'll be happy to.

My 2013 Dart is a Lemon. Dodge doesn't care.
My problem with my 2013 Dodge Dart is that I have a lemon. For the last few years, regardless of the continuous repairs, back and forth, repeated and wrong repairs, still my car is not fully fixed. Repeatedly, Military Auto Sales requested dodge to buy back this lemon and they (Dodge) has refused.
From my windshield being replaced by a manufactured defect, to my current status of possible transmission issues or clutch bearing issues and my back-up camera not working. Things like my brake malfunctioning Christmas night two years ago couldn't be reproduced so there was nothing to "fix".
My car collectively has been in maintenance nearly 4 months last year and almost 2 months this year. Not counting the many trips and months waiting for parts just to have a repair done. I have been to 4 different repair shops. No matter this difficult purchase, Dodge will not budge to help a customer. Service member or not, there is no prerequisite for help.
I do not care for the absolute poor quality of this particular purchase, what bothers me is the lack of care for the customer with so many continuous issues by such a large company. I have been in 5 different rentals/loaners and many of the parts replaced were refused to be replaced on warranty. Military Auto Sales has been footing the bill. Even for a current $3000 part replacement just to get my back-up camera fixed.
If I was serving in the states, a lemon law lawyer would have already been hired. For my current living area (Korea) and personal family/medical financial obligations, I feel like Dodge is escaping Justice. This photo is simply a battery check, since the battery was defective and had to also be replaced.
If it wasn't for Military Auto Sales, my car would be "parked" for the length of my tour until I get a lawyer in the states.
I would love to hear what Dodge has to say.

fiat is discontinuing the dart and 200 due to poor sales. Can't say i like the dart but the 200 with the v6 is pretty awesome.
absolutely no way castillo73 gets 20/26 with a tahoe. I worked for chevy for 10 years, drive one and can't get those numbers with a 4.8 std trans using the imperial gallon. i call bs.
