2024 Dodge Hornet

We Purchased the Dodge Hornet GT on 04/17/2024 drove it home and parked it. My Husband tried to drive it on 04/18/2024 and the steering failed and the dash board lit up with: Service Power steering, Drive mode unavailable, Park sense disabled, Service Engine, Auto Dim High Beams unavailable, Service forward collision Warning and ESC Hill Start Assist with warning lights/Icons on the left side of the dash board. I Phoned Suburban Chrylser, Dodge, Jeep, Ram of Troy, where the vehicle was purchased, and they picked it up and loaned me a vehicle because they said, "Do not drive it". I was informed early the next morning that it was repaired and ready for pick up which I did about 10:30 a.m. on 04/19/2024. We got in the vehicle on 04/20/2024 and upon start some of the same lights flashed across the right side of the dash board, briefly, and then disappeared. No warning lights/icons remained like before. We waited then Drove out to visit our son, about 30 minutes away. After an hour and half visit we drove home at which time the "Service Power steering" flashed on the right side of the dash board and the vehicle lost steering while traveling 70 miles an hour the the expressway. This was brief and terrifying! There were no further instances for the next 15 minutes until right at the moment that we were trying to pull into our driveway and every single issue that popped up before popped up again, with the warning lights/icons on the left side of the dash board, losing the rear camera as well. I managed to park it and spent hours searching information about this issue and there are several complaints on line regarding, it seems, this exact issue. The car IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE! It has 117 miles on it. If they do manage to fix it I don't know if I will ever feel safe in it unless they can prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that I am not in danger. We waited four months and paid $12,000.00 down for a car we CAN NOT use. I have photo's of the dashboard too.

The car operates as if the start stop function is on when it has been turned off. The car idles erratically it launches when driving. The car pulls back while driving and putters. I have been scared to drive the car due to the way it erratically drives. The check engine light has come on twice. The coolant hose repaired, and now engine needs replacing due to piston, pin scoring cylinder walls, and spark plugs fouled. On both occasions, there was no oil found on inspection on the dipstick. No engine overheat warning, no low oil fuel or need for oil light ever comes on. Only indicator was initially performance how hot the car stayed afterwards the smells and the black soot coming out the back tail pipe before the engine light pops on while driving . I felt I was going to break down while driving. And this was after taking it out of the shop after two weeks. It was out of oil again. I happen to check it because I was scared and sure enough no oil. I have taken it back to the shop and I’ve been told now it needs a new engine. I could not make it to the break-in period of 7500 miles to perform an oil consumption test. But it is obvious the car was defective with a bad engine as can happen what I want now is a new car and a buyback from Dodge.
