2016 Dodge Dart Brakes Problems

“Put my car into reverse as I was backing out brakes felt stiff and hard took time to slow down. I had to use the hand brake to stop the car. I have not driven my car since I have been away for work. I see a few other people have had this same problem”

“My Dodge DART was parked in my driveway after going to the store. I went inside to put down my things. When I went back into my garage to close it, I heard a loud popping noise. At this point my car began to roll down my driveway. The car rolled across the street and crashed into my neighbors 2 vehicles. After going back into my house and getting my keys, I unlocked the car and found the parking brake/emergency brake had been released.”

“Braking system failure when trying to stop . Brakes would press down but not slow the vehicular down. The brakes would randomly fail when stopping on both highway and in urban areas. Along with that the computer would fail and the ABS light,the engine light , and the traction control light would come on along with the battery light.

Brakes are hard to push often and vehicle is more and more reluctant to stop. The vehicle is always in motion. Stearing is harder when the vehicle slows or stops also. The issue began at the same time as the antilock brake issue. Check engine light also came on. All lights where cleared at my last service but came back on immediately from leaving the dealership I serviced it at. …”

“Takara recall I started noticed squeaking when pressing the breaks. This automatically making me assume that my brakes/brake pads were going bad. I took it to a local shop and after checking it out they suggested the brakes were fine and that I needed to take it to the dealership. Before I was able to do so, I had complete brake failure. I was attempting to come to a stop when the brake pedal was pressed all the way down and the vehicle was not slowing nor were the brakes catching. Thus resulting in an accident. The DART is a total loss. …”
