Not What I Expected From Dodge...

2016 Dodge Dart Turbo 4dr Sedan (1.4L 4cyl Turbo 6M)
10 of 15 people found this review helpful
Being only 22 years old, this was the first car I have purchased brand new in 2017 as a 2016 leftover model. I purchased the car to be a dependable daily driver for my one hour commute to work everyday. I loved the look of the car, the 6-speed standard transmission, and deal I thought I got. I am a car and truck enthusiast and I am no stranger to working on vehicles. I have also been driving a standard transmission vehicle since I am 15 and I am a reasonable driver. I was very impressed with the car on my test drive for only having the 1.4L 4 cylinder engine and knew I wanted to take this car home. Bad idea. After three weeks of owning the car the interior already started to rattle and hasn't stopped yet, which is a huge pet peeve of mine. About a month a half into owning the car, third gear started to "hiccup" during my acceleration, of course the dealer "couldn't duplicate it" when testing it. At 20,000 miles on the factory tires were so choppy I had to put four brand new tires on. At the same time, my brakes also started fluttering as if the rotors were warped. All the dealer could tell me was the tires were bad AT 20,000 MILES! And also that my brakes were fine. After putting 4 brand new tires on, at about 25,000 miles I began to hear a light screeching sound coming from the front left wheel, kind of like a bearing starting to wear and I have such a bad vibration in the steering over 70MPH that my commute home on the highway is torture. I am currently just under 30,000 miles and am NOT looking forward to what else is to come. I am disappointed with the acceleration with the car now, as it is not like it was the first day I brought it home. When I open the door when its bitter cold out my dash lights flicker and the gauge pods act up. Not to mention the resale on this car is worthless. I am not the kind of guy to complain like this or bad mouth Dodge as I have sworn by them since before I could sit behind the wheel. But I am absolutely positively regretful I purchased this car. It has its benefits that I truly do enjoy, but after dealing with issues I should see until well after 50,000-100,000 miles, I can honestly say I made a mistake buying this car. It is truly a blessing they stopped making this cars.

I owned a Dodge Charger RT and a Dodge Challenger RT before buying this Dodge Dart GT. I bought it because I needed something that would do better in bad weather and get better gas mileage. It took some getting used to as far as the power difference but the car has plenty of power for it's vehicle class. I enjoy driving the car. It has great response and braking and is easy to get around in. I was happily surprised at how well it handles snow and ice. The car I bought is fully loaded and it certainly has everything that I need as far as technology goes. I have had no problems with the car at all and I am very happy with this purchase.

When Gladys D ( The Dart) and I met i wasn't quite sure. My options were between a Chevy Spark , Kia Soul , Hyundai Accent , Chevy HHR and a Hyundai Sonata ( once i arrived @ the dealer, the sonata was already sold, of course ) . The Dodge Dart just seemed in my head more logical, only because the other vehicles had already had 90 to 100000 miles and these were 11' to 18' models JEEZ! Gladys had Super Low Miles. I never had a Dodge so " What the Heck!"..Honestly thus far i have been really impressed. I feel like journalist and getting Payola from othe makers. This car has beyond non prombematic . I was informed once i was in the process that there were 2 outstandibg recalls, which was No Big Deal. Made appt and they were ✔.... I think the review on the Dart is biased. The Car is compared to other small cars like Corolla, Sentra, Impreza, Cruze... Yet the Dart has a more heaviness which i like because i feel solid. When i need to punch it..Gladys Goes!!. Gr8 Car....I was always taught if u take ❤ of your car it will take care of U...America can makeca good small car... America car markers just need to stay consistent and Stop giving up so Quickly
