Airbag lights turns on and off and I think it's a manufacturer problem with the harness behind or under the seat. I read it's a common problem.

The transmission began slipping on Saturday, July 23, 2022 with 120,000 miles on the odometer. The car was driving normally then suddenly went into neutral causing it to slow down and back up traffic until I manually changed to a lower gear. The car was also doing this change to neutral on its own while I was trying to park the car and then when I went back to my car to pull out of the parking space, it took several attempts to engage the gears to move. I limped home with the car and got it parked in my driveway. The transmission fluid reading was normal. The car started doing this shift change to neutral without warning.

While I was driving my car began to smoke, there was no warning lights on my dashboard & my temperature gage was in the middle, indicating my car was not overheated. I pulled over put the vehicle in park & it became completely engulfed in flames. My car is a total loss!

I was reversing out of a parking spot and when I tried to go forward, the car kept wanting to go in reverse. The shifter then became stuck in park and would not move to another gear. I was in the middle of the road now blocking traffic. The dashboard still showed I was in reverse even though the shift lever was stuck in park. I was forced to keep reversing until I found a safe spot to park. Later I looked up this problem on YouTube and found many videos posted with my same problem with the stuck gear shift. I would definitely say this is a manufacturing defect that needs to be recalled on all versions of the Dodge Avenger car.

THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE AIRBAG SYSTEM, WHICH I HAVE TAKEN TO GET FIXED. THERE IS A AIRBAG LIGHT NOW FLASHING ON AND OFF AND I AM TOO AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. WHEN I ASKED ABOUT THE DEALERSHIP SHIP SHEWED ME AWAY AND SAID MAYBE IT'S THE WIRING, WELL HELL I DIDN'T WIRE IT MYSELF. I WANT IT NOTED I CALLED ABOUT THIS ISSUE ALSO REPORTED IT WAS TOLD IT'S NOT PART OF THE RECALL. SO I GUESS THEY WAIT FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN FIRST, THEN RECALL IT?!?

A DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHT IS ON THAT INDICATES A PROBLEM WITH THE FRONT AIR BAGS. I HAVE A 2010 DODGE AVENGER. MY MECHANIC RECENTLY ADVISED ME TO GET THIS CHECKED OUT AS A RECALL.

I KEEP HAVING THE VEHICLE FIXED AND THEN THEY KEEP TELLING ME NOTHING ELSE NEEDS TO BE FIXED WITH IT. IT KEEPS PULLINGN WHEN I COME TO A STOP AND THEN DECELERATES WHILE I'M DRIVING AND I HAVE TO PULL OVER ON THE HIGHWAY OR PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY AND START THE CAR AGAIN. NO LIGHTS COME ON THERE'S OIL IN THE CAR I JUST HAD AN OIL CHANGE I JUST HAD TO BRAKE PADS FIXED EVEN THOUGH THE BRAKES KEEP SQUEAKING THE ROTORS ARE NEW XCETERA. THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME IT HAS DECELERATED I HAD TO HAVE A PART REPLACED A COUPLE YEARS AGO BECAUSE IT WAS DOING THE SAME THING. TRYING TO FIGURE OUT IF THERE'S ANY RECALLS ON THE CAR IN ORDER TO GET THOSE RECALLS FIXED. IT DID THE SAME THING LAST YEAR AND WHEN I TOOK IT IN THEY FIXED ANOTHER PART. IT'S NEVER THE SAME PART THAT THE MECHANICS FIX AND SAY IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM.
