| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: When my wife depressed the accelerator in reverse, the pedal went to the floorboard with no engine reaction. approxiamtely 3-4 seconds later, the car violently took off backwards, ramming another car in our driveway. this action was repeatable for months and it was documented by the insurance adjuster as a major mechanical malfunction. dodge did not address that there was a problem and every time said there are no problems. we have found others with the same problem on the internet. this cost our insurance compnay several thousand dollars. also, the factory tires had very premature tire wear. i had to replace them at 18,000 miles. dodge did replace suspension parts under warranty prior to the premature tire wear. again, dodge said there was no problems with the car attributable to the tire wear. |
