Would absolutely not recommend this car to anybody one.

Would absolutely not recommend this car to anybody one. Financed for this vehicle back in Jan 2020. Took a 5 day trip in March of that yr before covid, when I got back the car wouldn’t start. Car was constantly back and forth in the shop until one day in Oct 2021 the car completely stopped running. I was fed up and decided I wouldn’t pay another dime on this vehicle . You want to know how bad this vehicle is? I called the lien holder twice once in 2022, again in 2023 to get it voluntarily repossessed. Guess who still has possession of the vehicle? Not even the bank wants this vehicle back.

Best purchase

I bought my 2013 Dodge dart brand new in November of 2012. My kids called it my in life crisis car I called it My last car I'm ever going to buy 😂 it is now April of 2024 and I have 24,500 mi on the car and the only thing I've had to do was normal maintenance, change oil and replace tires. I love the Dodge dart and I checked the gas mileage last weekend after a trip and I got 32 mi to the gallon. Very happy! When I dye my grandson will be happy to have it also.

2013 Dodge Dart. Nothing but junk!

I have a 2013 Dodge Dart. It's been junk from almost day one. No car should have to have 3 trannys now they tell me it needs #4. 1st one went out with 25 thousand miles. 2nd one went out at 50 thousand miles. 3rd went out 102 thousand. Always other repairs when i took it in also. I told them not to put #4 trans. in even though it was under warranty. They wanted 3,800.00 for other repairs. I said forget it! Good ole chrysler cancelled my lifetime warranty out after putting in 3rd trans. along with repairs that they found. Said i exceeded the value of the car. Never again will i buy from chrysler!!

LOVE it!

This car is great. I discovered Its platform is based on an Alfa Romeo. If you want Alfa Romeo performance without the mega buck price, get a Dart!

Most finicky auromobile I've EVER owned!

I drove my Dart off the lot & within 3 months, the radio stopped working. Have had to replace the starter more than 3 times. "No start, '13 Dodge Dart" should be trending on Google as many forums & searches as their owners have done. I had mine towed home over 3 months ago because once again, "no start." O² and EMC (?)sensors have both been replaced several times. Also, there is some kind of linkage that kept breaking causing the gear shifter to have free play in it that results in....👩🏼‍🔧you guessed it! NO START!😂

it’s discontinued for a reason

just, no. issues are guaranteed to be endless after the first one happens. just, don’t even look at darts and if an agent tries to show you one - know they’re trying to sell you the least reliable and quality car present on the lot and choose someone else to show you behicles

13 Dart

The car was as advertised, test drove perfectly. My daughter loves the car, and I was very happy with price. Used cars are a risk, but the right dealer can make all the difference.

Reliable - never gives me a problem

I love my Dart - in 7 years only one problem that was taken care of by the warranty. Anything else was ware and tear related. I am so disappointed that Dodge is not making cars other than 2 that are overpriced sports cars.
