so....ehhh.....whats......uhhhhhhhhhhh..........happening?

 

[IDAFC21]

Seriously tho. Thats horrible.

 

[FrenchLicker]

No fucking clue, check engine light flashed, went off, was making a left and boom, shit shut down and I had to make a left slowly coasting with no power steering.... So not only do I get to miss more work due to a dodge pos.... It doesn't even have 1500 miles and my first statement hasn't come.......

Sounds like you might be overreacting just a bit... Call dealer, get rental, car gets fixed.. You wash the sand out and the world keeps spinning.
I mean, it's brand new... You have the best warranty coverage with a new ride ..

 

[IDAFC21]

I would light that thing on fire and roll it thru the dealers front window.

The dart was out of commission over 50 days.
I don't wanna fuck around with paying for a rental deposit and then have to fight chrysler to pay for the rental, dealer in Dixon fucked me and I had to pay for the last week and then wait for chrysler to reimburse me, I'm just tired of dealing with shit.

I bought a Dodge back in 94. Blew the trans twice, rear end three times, bent the drive shaft etc.
It was a Dakota, and warranty paid for it all. Warranty ended up being a thousand bucks less than I paid for the truck. I had fun and it was the last Dodge I've owned.
I hope it works out for you

 

[FrenchLicker]

Soooo take out the phone to video the dash while it happens and the van doesn't fucking flinch. What. The fuck.

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

Fis It Again Tony

 

[bikrboy128]

why the hell would you buy another dodge after getting fucked by your dart

what "RT" do you have anyway? charger? challenger?

 

[Mook]

Why did you buy a Dodge again?

Is this new? Used? More details.

 

[TonzKnock-G]

Chrysler sucks donkey balls!!!

 

[TonzKnock-G]

I'm thinking 200 with the 20 speed transmission.

Took the phone out last night to try to record the cluster in the parking lot. It ran fine so I made a quick run to grab milk. No problems.

This morning driving to work aand I check the fuel economy, somehow I'm getting 5-6 mpg per readout more than before. I took a trip 99% highway over the weekend and managed a hair under 23 and am now seeing 27-29.... what the???

Why did you buy a Dodge again?

We had A town and country as a rental and the wife loved it. So I did some research and thr biggest recall/issue I found was that some of the rear window switches have issues with moisture, no big deal. Ended up getting 0% for the Van and the RT at a fair price with trade inmore than anyone should get for a dart. But it'sa brand new, 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan RT.

Lesson is, if anyone wants to buy a new car, let me test drive one and tell you if I would buy it. Because if I would buy it, it's probably a piece.

Funny thing about amazing dodge and chrysler...... their new vehicle B2B warranty excludes rental. So they say thank you for buying our 20-80 grand vehicle depending what car or truck you buy.... and when it breaks down you pay for the rental while we fix it! Thanks for your business!

 

[Bru]

You bought a Caravan R/T?

 

[Euro]

That thing weighs 4,500 pounds??

 

[FrenchLicker]

Only RT model heavier is the Durango.

and yea, because racevan.

sad thing is I drive it like a freaking grandma... the dart may have been driven spiritedly

 

[syP]

this is why i have more than 1 car.

My warranty covers rental cars like I told you a bazillion times... Find a new Fucking dealer that will take care of you! I'm beginning to think half the drama you speak of of brought on by yourself not listening to others and lack of common sense... I've had my dart in for 3 warranty visits (all stupid little shit) and never once did I have to pay for a rental!

The dealer was being nice and doing good will to you. The photo below is from dodges website for a dodge dart incidentals are not covered by the basic new vehicle warranty

I love how our mini cooper (which is notoriously a problem child for many people and rated poorly in surveys) hasn't been in for a single visit outside of its oil changes in the 20k HARD miles [MENTION=4700]Miss Esa[/MENTION] and I have had it, and yet I keep reading horror stories about the new dart.
