At a glance
- Next to other model years
- Complaints filed before 2015 aren't in the files this site reads, so the 2015 count runs short and isn't compared with the model years next to it.
- Top problem
- Stalling leads with 130 of the 527 complaints (25%), ahead of brake wear at 68. A quarter of the 113 owners who gave a mileage for stalling saw it by about 35,000 miles, and half by about 48,000.
- Crash, fire and injury reports
- 40 of the 527 complaints (8%) report a crash, a fire or an injury, a little above the 6% typical of vehicles on this site. Counted separately (one report can carry more than one), 32 reports mention a crash, 7 mention a fire and 23 people were hurt. The most crash reports, 17 of 32, fall under airbag.
- Recalls behind the top problems
- No recall on file is on the same system as stalling, brake wear and misfire. For those, the complaints are all there is.
- When owners filed
- Filings peaked in 2019 at 130 (full calendar years only). In 2025 there were 28. So far in 2026, 54 more have come in. Filings on record start in 2015.

How this compares
527 complaints is 1.9 times the median 2015 model on this site and 2.0 times the median 2015 sedan. Among the 3 Dart model years here it ranks 1st for complaints. Counts follow sales volume as much as reliability, so a truck that sells 700,000 a year draws more reports than a sedan that sells 200,000.
