I have a 2008 dodge avenger. Right now it is stuck in park. I also had the motor for the windows replaced and still having problems with the drivers side. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't

I purchased my 2008 Dodge Avenger from Drivetime in 2010. It stalls at stop signs,the AC has stopped working, their is a loud sound like it is coming from the radiator,a hissing sound. The brakes go bad quickly. One of the worst cars ever made.

Well it isn't reliable. I've had with my car almost catching fire twice and lots of other problems. They can take it and shove it. Never again. It's going.

Do you drive a 2008 DODGE AVENGER?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
