Major problems

I got this car in April of 2016 and within a week the engine light came on and it went to the shop, turns out it had a cracked cylinder wall and the engine had to be replaced and that took a month. About a month later the light came on again and it was for bad o rings, had to get the injectors replaced. two months after that the transmission sensor went bad. Just recently the light came on again and I'm taking it to get fixed today. Thankful for warranty at this point. The climate control buttons do not work in mine either. Other than the numerous problems is has had it is a fun car to drive and is a pretty comfortable ride.

I have a 2014 GT with 30,000 miles and it has been/is a fun, great small car that is not so small in comparison to some midsized cars. The 2.4 is a solid and reliable four that is a touch rough but has good response and decent gas mileage. I find it far more sporting and fun to fling through twisty curves ( thanks to is Alfa chases and suspension). A great replacement for the old Neon and not given time to grow in popularity...A shame the plug was pulled. Update: at 45,000 miles, the clutch died and had to replace. Seems the Fiat/Alfa-Romeo 6-Speed manuals are not known for longevity. But no other issues.

A Worthy Commuter Car

I bought my 2014 GT (pitch black with hyper black wheels, automatic transmission,) new in April of 2014 and over a year and 17000 miles later I have very few, very minor complaints. Overall it's a great car and gets me to work on time with good MPG. Outward visibility is good, but as with most new cars the A and C pillars are quite thick and hard to see around. Thankfully my car has blind spot monitoring which has helped me more than once! The whole infotainment system works exceptionally well. All the menu's are extremely easy to navigate and operate, but the touch sensitivity should be adjustable. More than once I've found myself tapping the same button multiple times trying to get it to register. Navigation, radio controls, climate controls, they're all very user friendly. There are two features that I found annoying. The rain sensing windshield wipers don't work very well. They tend not to be very intuitive and I ended up disabling it. The other feature I dislike is the rear parking sensors. They work very well, but I disabled them because while backing out of my garage they would go insane. Not a fun thing first thing in the morning. Interestingly even after the sensors have been turned off, they still sometimes sporadically work. Sometimes while backing out of a steep driveway the sensors will go off at random. Sometimes they'll sense something extremely far away, something it wouldn't sense if the sensors were turned on. And sometimes they do nothing at all. The other complaint I have is the ride quality. I didn't really know what I was getting myself into when I bought the GT. It rides like a rock in a washer, but that's what it's supposed to do. It corners really well and rides fairly quietly, but due to the terrible roads in my town, the car takes a bit of a beating and I feel most of it too. As a result the plastic panel above the rear view mirror rattles against the windshield and tends to drive me nuts.

I have the 2014 rallye dodge dart. So far I have had VERY few issues. The only proble. I've had didn't stop me from driving. My wheel bearing went out and had to be replaced. After that I haven't had any issues. I've been reading the other reviews about it breaking down at 20,000 miles. Mine is at 39,000 and it is still going strong.

There are not enough characters allowed on this to describe my distain for this vehicle. Engine malfunction light came on in 200 miles. It is a faulting oil pressure sensor, they replaced and the light is still coming on. They are waiting for a software update that they "hope" will fix the problem. Computer sometimes prohibits the car from accelerating over 4000 rpms. No fix. They don't know what is wrong. Again hope for a software fix. This is a real safety concern to me. In cold weather the battery light dings and flashes on the dash annoyingly, again they hope a software updated can fix it.. We are now going through the lemon law process. I refuse to pay over $18k for a broken new car.
