Here are some of the most common problems across its model years:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Excessive Oil Consumption<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan to buy a used 2015 Dodge Dart, you may want to watch out for excessive oil consumption. Many owners noticed that they had to top up their engine oil every 1,000 miles, while others determined that their Dart had been consuming 1-2 quarts of oil every 1,000-2,000 miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The solution for this problem will vary depending on your mechanic&rsquo;s diagnosis. Several owners had to swap out their faulty oil rings for new ones, while some had to get an engine replacement to resolve the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Engine Stalling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many 2014 Dodge Dart owners have complained that their engine suddenly stalls or dies while they&rsquo;re on the road. Some had to jumpstart their vehicle to get it running again. In most cases, mechanics found no issue with their car&rsquo;s battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/2014-Dodge-Dart-Rear-Wikimedia-1024x641.jpg\" alt=\"2014 Dodge Dart Rear Wikimedia\" class=\"wp-image-43428\" width=\"1024\" height=\"641\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/2014-Dodge-Dart-Rear-Wikimedia-1024x641.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/2014-Dodge-Dart-Rear-Wikimedia-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/2014-Dodge-Dart-Rear-Wikimedia-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/2014-Dodge-Dart-Rear-Wikimedia-1536x961.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/2014-Dodge-Dart-Rear-Wikimedia-150x94.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/2014-Dodge-Dart-Rear-Wikimedia.jpg 1700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><figcaption>Many 2014 Dodge Dart owners complain that their engine suddenly stalls or dies while they&rsquo;re on the road.

Mechanics have linked these drivability problems to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/low-oil-pressure-symptoms-and-faq\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"low oil pressure\">low oil pressure<\/a>, malfunctioning sensors, and faulty wiring. A software update for the engine computer also worked for some affected vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Suspension System Issues<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Problems with the suspension system top the list of 2013 Dodge Dart common problems. Some owners have reported that their front passenger side axle snapped without warning. What puzzled them was that most of them were not involved in a collision, which may have compromised the integrity of their suspension system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suspension system problems increase the risk of road accidents. Good thing replacing the faulty components solves most of them. There&rsquo;s no shortage of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/control-arm\/dodge\/dart\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"replacement control arms\">replacement control arms<\/a>, knuckles, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/axle-assembly\/dodge\/dart\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"axles\">axles<\/a> available on the market, so finding one for your Dodge Dart will be easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"article-search-widget\">\n<div class=\"cp-search\">\n<div align=\"center\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cld.partsimg.com\/image\/upload\/w_auto,dpr_auto\/carparts\/logos\/badge_wordmark\/full_color\/CP_LOGO_COLOUR_RGB\" alt=\"CarParts.com\" width=\"300\" height=\"56\">\n<\/div>\n<form id=\"cpsearchform\" name=\"cpsearchform\" action=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/search\" method=\"get\" target=\"_blank\" accept-charset=\"character_set\" aria-label=\"search CarParts.com\">\n    <input type=\"text\" class=\"keyword\" name=\"q\" placeholder=\"Search for parts on CarParts.com\" value=\"\" aria-label=\"Search CarParts.com\"><input type=\"submit\" class=\"btn-search\" value=\"Search\" aria-label=\"Search\">\n<\/form>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Malfunctioning Transmission<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another common issue reported by several 2013 Dodge Dart owners involves their vehicle&rsquo;s transmission. Owners shared that affected cars jumped out of gear a few times while they were on the road. In some cases, their Dart also made grinding noises and got stuck at neutral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&rsquo;re starting to notice transmission-related issues with your Dodge Dart, don&rsquo;t hesitate to bring it to an auto repair shop for proper diagnosis and repair. Replacing the whole transmission solved the issue on most affected vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Broken Sun Visor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some 2013 Dodge Dart owners have also complained about problems with their interior accessories. Several drivers said that their passenger side sun visor snapped even though they rarely use it. Some speculated that the plastic tube holding the visor in place isn&rsquo;t durable, causing the part to fall off easily. Thankfully, this issue can be solved by replacing the faulty sun visor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How To Remove Dodge Dart Sun Visor Passenger Side\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/s8IkmfU5L3I?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Battery Failure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to many owners of the 2013 Dodge Dart, battery failure is a common problem for the model year. Most of them had to replace their car&rsquo;s battery twice in two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drivers have reported that their battery died abruptly while they were driving. Most of them also had to deal with steering and braking issues. Owners of the affected vehicles had to replace their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/battery\/dodge\/dart\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"battery\">battery<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/alternator\/dodge\/dart\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"alternator\">alternator<\/a> to solve the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brake-related Issues<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) issued a recall to address the 2013 model year&rsquo;s brake problems. The recall covered Darts fitted with incorrect rear <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/brake-caliper\/dodge\/dart\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"brake calipers\">brake calipers<\/a>, which may cause the vehicle&rsquo;s parking brakes to malfunction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some owners also complained about unusual noises coming from their brakes. However, when they took their vehicle to an auto repair shop, mechanics found nothing wrong with the parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are only some of the issues that your Dodge Dart can develop as it racks up mileage. By doing your research before purchasing any car, you can save time and money by avoiding costly repairs. Once you&rsquo;ve chosen the right model year for you, stick to its maintenance schedule and replace faulty parts immediately to keep it in top shape for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to Get Auto Parts and Accessories for Your Dodge Dart<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A broken sun visor, a stalling engine, or a failing battery are some of the common issues that drivers have reported while driving their Dodge Dart.
