| 2008 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED FLASHING COULD NOT GO OVER APPROX 15-25 MPH. PULLED OVER SHUT CAR OFF AND RESTARTED AND WORKED FINE FOR THE 5 MIN DRIVE I HAD TO COMPLETE AFTER IT HAPPENED. 9 HOURS LATER WHILE DRIVING THE THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN WITH LOSS OF POWER INTERMITTENTLY THEN STAYED OFF FOR 5 MIN DRIVE I HAD TO COMPLETE. *TR |
| 2008 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | I PURCHASED THE 2008 DODGE AVENGER LAST YEAR AND I'VE NOTICED NOT EVEN ONCE THE BRAKES WERE NEWLY INSTALLED AT 20,000 MILES YOU CAN FEELING THE BRAKING SYSTEM THROUGH THE STEERING WHEEL. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THE SHIFTING. WITHOUT WARNING AFTER CLASS THE SHIFTER WOULD NOT MOVE FROM PARK. LEAVING ME STRANDED. THE ENGINE RUNS FINE, AND I FOLLOWED THE MANUAL AND OTHER SUGGESTIONS BY THE DEALER. WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE FOR THIS TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY? THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND DODGE NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. I HAVE BEEN TO MANY SITES REGARDING THIS ISSUE. ACCORDING TO DODGE THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE. AND WARRANTY DOESN'T COVER THIS ISSUE! *TR |
