2013 Dodge Avenger owner complaints

My husband a I were driving down the highway and all of a sudden a loud sound a bam the air bag in the passenger seat blew open and dang near gave my husband whiplash. Also I have had the thermostat replaced 3 times in 2 years and the car is still overheating. The ABS sensor will not go off and its like the emergency brake is stuck. I can be driving and when I try to stop it is like its locking up.

Takata recall air bag light won't go off I'm afraid the airbag won't deploy

The passenager head restraint system is throwing an error they cannot figure out. The local service department, and Chrysler's star team (engineers) cannot figure out the problem. They have had my car for five weeks. It's time for them to replace the defective vehicle.

Tl* takata recall. The contact owns a 2013 Dodge avenger. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 16v668000 (air bags, seat belts); however, the parts to do the repair were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

Air bag light illuminated. VIN not in recall range

When I was driving to work, 2 nights in a row, the car just stops. I am pressing on the gas but it stops as if I'm not accelerating. I was driving at approx 45 MPH when it happened. This is not the first time this has happened. It happened a handful of times. I have taken it to the dealer and was told that they couldn't tell me what was wrong because it wasn't doing it right at that time. I have a friend that had the same kind of car and actually got a rid of it through the lemon law because it did the same thing. This is a safety issue because the car just stops and the way I go to work there is rarely somewhere to pull over leaving me sitting in moving traffic but I'm not moving. There is no correlation regarding the speed or the type of road I am traveling. It just happened to be this t

Went to the dealership on 12/19/2019 for two recalls on my car. The repair was stated that it would take 2-3 hours but took 5 hours. The next day the car started backing up out of the drive way on its on and now it does not start. Called the dealership to tell them the problem and they stated that I have to find a way to bring the car there and pay for the repair myself. My car was fine before they worked on it.

Airbag in seat headrest deployed while vehicle was parked for no reason.

I bought this car brand new in june 2013 and about 3 years after purchasing the heat has gone out but the air works fine in summer, so I've been without heat because I can't afford the repair cost and I will definitely never buy another Dodge on account that after reading that so many other owners have had the very same problem but yet Dodge does not see the need to do a recall on this problem....so the customer service ends after you say I do!

Passenger side air vents do not blow heat while driver side vents will blow heat. Also, while the heat met is on and driving combining to a stop the heater makes a grinding noise and bubbling sound. I have heard this is a common issue that Dodge refuses to acknowledge to fix. This needs to go on review for a recall

When it is raining the wipers will get stuck as it is pour and you try to drive. It has happened several times and the dealership finds nothing wrong. Also the fuse box is faulty, the charge light will appear on dashboard and will cause the car to not turn on or for it to stop working. The horn will sound on it's own and I have to wiggle fuses for it yo stop

I have an issue with my 2013 heating system. My driver side vents are blowing hot air , though my passenger side is blowing cold and I do not have the money to fix this! Bad time of year for this problem, my child and myself will be freezing this winter! Also it has under 100,000 miles on it !! And no, it happens parked or in motion .thanks Dodge

I purchased my Dodge avenger brand new in 2013. After two years of having my car, my car started to not want to turn on. I would continue to try and sometimes it would work and not other times. I went to get the battery checked and was told it was fine. I then went to a dealership and they said I probably needed to get a fuel injector done so I did this as well and my car still time to time will not start. 2nd my left side body panel one day just popped out of place and when I would go to shut my door it would make a clicking sound from me trying to shut it. I was not in a wreck, there is no explanation as to why my panel popped out of place. 3. My car is now not blowing heat out (and its winter right now) I only noticed this once it became cold out and needed to use it. First coup

Tamara recall. Ok I have a problem with the heater core in my 2013 Dodge avenger. I've taken it to the dealership and they tell me that the heater core is plugged after further investigation on the internet I learned I'm not the only consumer with this problem. The dealership tells me it a defect in the manufacturing of the heater core from the factory but no recall has been issued at this time and there is several complaints about this. I have heat on the drivers side but blows cold on the passenger side not allowing the defrost to melt the ice on the windshield. This is a very dangerous situation and could cause traffic accidents. Upon your investigation you will find its not just one make and model it's several and the manufacturer and the dealership know it a problem but will not corre

No heat on passenger side of vehicle. Cold air on passenger side when using defrost, so in winter months, passenger side of windshield remains foggy.

I have a 2013 Dodge avenger, given to me as a gift may 2013. The car was only about 4 years old(10/13/2017) and I started hearing a strange clicking sound, coming from under the glove compartment. Sometimes the heat/ ac wouldn't kick on for a few minutes. It ended up being the mode door actuator,it cost me over $ 400 ,I also needed front pads and rotors. The vehicle only had 18,000 miles on it. I also had to have the hood of the car replaced (sept. 5,2017) because the paint started peeling, this at least was covered by Dodge , because they said mine was not the only vehicle to have this same issue, not because of the warranty. Now I just had all 4 tires, and brakes done , between 7/2018 and 11/2018. The car only had about 22,000 miles. Here we are in december of 2018, I just had to replac
