Typical suspension symptoms owners report
- Lower control arms reportedly fracture or break off during normal driving, sometimes at low mileage and occasionally a second time on the same vehicle.
- Tires develop sidewall bulges or blowouts, in some cases shredding at highway speed and leading to loss of control.
- Owners report the vehicle pulling to one side when braking, later traced to a fractured driver-side lower control arm.
- Front tires or steering components reportedly fail suddenly, including a steering axle breaking in half without any pothole impact.
- Some owners describe clunking noises while turning or accelerating after suspension components were replaced following curb impacts.

Tires:pressure monitoring and regulating systems
Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2015 Dodge Dart Aero vehicles manufactured August 24, 2014, to October 28, 2014. The affected vehicles were built with a premium instrument cluster and Lowline Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). The TPMS warning light may not illuminate when low tire pressure is detected. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 138, "Tire pressure monitoring systems."
Risk: A malfunctioning TPMS light will not notify an owner of an improperly inflated tire. An improperly inflated tire may experience a complete loss of tire pressure, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will reconfigure the vehicles from a lowline TPMS to a highline TPMS, free of charge. The recall began on January 27, 2015. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is P76.
