2012 Dodge Durango SUV 4WD

Hard, front collision with deer, spun several times before rolling over a couple times down a small hill. Side air bags deployed but front did not deploy resulting in severer and additional driver injuries including but not limited to chest contusions, spleen hematoma and concussion. He was hospitalized and has a long road ahead. Car was totaled and towed. Insurance company has it now. They and responders are aware front air bags did not deploy.

I had just picked my car up from getting brakes and an inspection (obviously passed). I was driving home and there was smoke from under the hood with an electrical fire smell. My dash went crazy then I completly lost power. I had no stearing or brakes- couldn't even put on my hazards or roll down the window down to tell cars behind me to pass me. I immediatly called the garage that had just done the work to get it towed. They called today and told me that the alternator blew up and fried the battery and possible the computer (tip module??) I looked up recalls and noticed that there has been problems with this happening but my VIN didn't come up for this. I just wanted to check into the recall before I spent thousands of dollars.

I purchased my 2012 Dodge Durango two years ago and it has been one of the most stressful issues I have ever hadz. Two days after purchasing it all the lights lit up my dash board the head lights wouldn’t go on the heater or air wouldn’t work and my windows in front would not roll down. This usually happens when I start it in the morning but it also will happen when I’m driving I almost got into a accident on the HWY at 530 in the morning coming to work when my head light just shut off. It has been back to the deal shop I bought it 3 dodge dealer ships and my personal mechanic and they can not find out what the issue is. Over the past two years it has been in the shop bout 10-15 times It has been parked more than I have been able to drive it. I am in a loan I can not get out of.

Had the recall for shutting down repair again and still having the same problem. I've spent over $2000 In diagnosed fees with dealership and private shops and still having the same problem. Yes the fuel pump relay was replaced 2 times. Still having the same problem it will start back up but locks the steering wheel to where you can't turn it. Which almost was in a accident but was able to stop before. It's happens every month but was told not to bring it back to the dealership as they cant find the problem as all recalls were repaired.

My power locks and windshield wiper fluid pump stopped working. I took the vehicle to the nearest dealership over an hour away. After many days and an expensive car rental, the TIPM needed replacing. After researching this issue, it is DIRECTLY correlated to a dangerous issue that resulted in a lawsuit in 2015. Additionally, the recall associated with the TIPM is not fixable at this point because Dodge doesn't have parts. So, the TIPM I was given in this repair is dangerous. This was a $1067 repair for a vehicle that has 80k miles.

Was driving on Hwy at 65 mph. Rear drivers side tire blew out. Sidewall split and cause the tread to detach. Caliber Collision has pictures of the damage. I had to immediately pull to the side of a busy hwy at dusk. Just managed to get off the road. Called 911 but they didn’t stop to talk to us. AAA towed me to Caliber Collision. Total damages were $10,587.67. Car was totaled by USAA insurance. No warning ahead of time and the tire was 3 years old. Less than 25,000 miles put on it. Warning came on as I was pulling over after the flat but it was too late. Now I have an accident on my record when I only collided with the ground by the flat.

I am trying to submit a report that a Dealer is not providing me service for a recall but there isn't a link to do so, only a missive telling me that i should. I am being told by the dealer that the parts to fix the Fuel pump relay problem on the 2012 Dodge Durango are in a National shortage at the moment but they will not provide me with documentation that proves this so i am unable to ship my vehicle home.

Vechile stalls and unable to shift to drive freely

Lifter and limp mode problems. There is noise comming from engine. Took to shop and found out reason for noise and low power was lifters and is a very common problem.

Thought was just a fluke and had damage repaired and noticed a ticking and power problems immediately after accident repair. Took to dodge dealer and found out common problem with the lifters cam and limp mode. Had at same repair shop for other recall 2 months prior for recall and inspection with no noise or issues.

WE PUT OUR DURANGO AWAY EACH WINTER AND DOESN'T GET DRIVEN UNTIL WE BRING IT OUT IN THE SPRING. 2 YEARS AGO I PULLED IT OUT IN THE SPRING. I FOUND 2 OIL PUDDLES WHERE THE REAR WHEELS SAT. ALL THE OIL HAD LEAKED OUT OF THE REAR SHOCKS. I HAD THEM REPLACED BY MY MECHANIC AT A COST OF $450 EACH, USING DODGE ORIGINAL PARTS. I WENT INTO OUR GARAGE A WEEK AGO (FEB 18TH 2021) AND FOUND THE LEFT REAR SHOCK HAD LET GO AGAIN, ANOTHER PUDDLE ON THE GARAGE FLOOR. IF THESE LET GO WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE BOUNCES VIOLENTLY. I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I HAVE DRIVEN IT THAT WAY FOR ABOUT 10 MILES TO OUR MECHANIC, I HAD ALL I COULD DO TO HANG ONTO IT.

I HAD JUST MADE IT THROUGH AN INTERSECTION AND WAS A FEW MILES FROM HOME. SOMETHING SMELLED A LITTLE "HOT" EVEN THOUGH I DIDN'T HAVE THE RADIO, HEAT OR ANY EXTRA CONTROLS. SUDDENLY, ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH BEGAN FLASHING AT ME AND I BEGAN LOSING POWER OF THE VEHICLE. I COULDN'T EVEN PUT MY WINDOWS UP. I PULLED TO THE SIDE AS FAST AS I COULD BEFORE LOSING ALL POWER, INCLUDING MY BLINKERS TO WARN OTHER CARS. I HAD TO CALL AAA FOR A TOW AND THEY HAD TO USE A BYPASS TO GET THE CAR IN NEUTRAL TO EVEN TOW IT. THEY ATTEMPTED TO CHARGE THE CAR AND THE CHARGING PACK GOT EXTREMELY HOT AS IF IT WAS GOING TO CATCH FIRE TO THE POINT HE HAD TO DISCONNECT IT. MEANWHILE, A LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENT CREW WAS RETURNING TO THEIR STATION WITH AN AMBULANCE AND STOPPED TO HELP SLOW DOWN TRAFFIC ON THE BUSY ROAD. ONE OF THE FIREMAN NOTICED SPARKS COMING FROM THE ALTERNATOR AREA. THAT'S WHEN EVERYTHING WAS DISCONNECTED AND TOWED FOR REPAIRS. FAST FORWARD, THE ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY WERE REPLACED AND THE VEHICLE IS STILL NOT FUNCTIONING. THE MECHANIC HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET THE CAR RUNNING AGAIN.

DODGE HAS ISSUES A RECALL TO THE FUEL PUMP RELAY. IN THE RECALL LETTER IS STATES "A VEHICLE ENGINE STALL WHILE DRIVING CAN CAUSE A VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING".

DECEMBER OF 2020 DODGE FINALLY CAM UP WITH A FIX FOR THE LATEST V62 RECALL AND WE HAD THE VEHICLE FIXED. 2 WEEKS LATER IT STARTED HAPPENING AGAIN. I WOULD THINK 3 RECALLS AND REPAIRS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM WOULD BE ENOUGH TO REMEDY THE SITUATION. THIS 3RD FIX TOOK 12 MONTHS!! I WANTY DODGE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS VEHICLE OR BUY IT BACK SO NOBODY ELSE GETS KILLED WHILE DRIVING IT. THIS VEHICLE HAD A NO SELL ORDER ON IT SO I AM STUCK WITH IT.

I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 45 MPH ON A DRY 2 WAY ROAD, WHEN ANOTHER VEHICLE PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME AND I WAS UNABLE TO AVOID A COLLISION.

THIS IS IN REFERENCE TO THE RECALL ON DODGE DURANGO FUEL PUMP RELAY. SINCE THIS RECALL HAS STILL NOT BEEN OPENED TO BE FIXED, I AM AT THE POINT WHERE MY VEHICLE IS NOT STARTING BECAUSE OF IT. IF IT DOES START I AM WORRIED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF IT CAUSING VEHICLE TO STOP WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE FOUR CHILDREN AND THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. LIKE MANY OTHERS IN THIS TIME OF COVID, I DO NOT HAVE THE FUNDS TO FIX THIS EXPENSIVE RECALL. IS THERE ANY UPDATE ON WHEN THIS CAN BE FIXED? I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT IS STILL NOT APPROVED. THIS STARTED ABOUT 3-4 WEEKS AGO AND NOW IS GETTING WORSE. CAR WOULDN'T START AT ALL YESTERDAY. I HAVE SCANNED AND CHECKED EVERYTHING WITH MECHANIC. HE SAYS IT IS RECALL ITEM HE BELIEVES.

THE RECALL V62 HAS BEEN KNOWN FOR 2 YEARS. NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO FIX THE RECALL. MY VEHICLE IS NON-DRIVEABLE AT THE DEALERSHIP WAITING ON A PART TO FIX IT THAT IS "UNAVAILABLE". NO RENTAL WAS OFFERED NOR ANY TIME FRAME OF WHEN THE PART WOULD BE AVAILABLE WAS GIVEN.

MY CAR IS CURRENTLY ONE OF THE CARS IN AN OPEN RECALL WITH DODGE FOR THE FUEL PUMP RELAY. I HAD THE FUEL PUMP RELAY REPLACED LAST WEEK 8/10/2020 SINCE THAT TIME THE CAR WAS DRIVEN MAYBE 4 TIMES. THE CAR WAS PARKED FOR THE LAST FOUR DAYS IN MY GARAGE I TRIED TO DRIVE IT TODAY AND IT STALLED AFTER 15 MINUTES WHILE I WAS DRIVING THANKFULLY IN A PARKING LOT. I ATTEMPTED TO PUT A NEW RELAY ON THE FUEL PUMP RELAY WIRING HARNESS BUT IT STILL WOULD NOT START. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES I WOULD ASSUME THE WIRING HARNESS COOLED ENOUGH I COULD GET THE CAR STARTED AND THANKFULLY I WAS ONLY 2 MINUTES AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP. MY CAR HAS BEEN AT A DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES SINCE JUNE 10 AND TWICE IN ALMOST 2 WEEKS. THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT HELPING AND IS TELLING ME I HAVE TO WORK WITH THE DEALERSHIP. THEY ARE AT A LOSE FOR WHAT TO DO SINCE DODGE IS NOT GIVING THEM ANY DIRECTION. THE CAR IS NOT RELIABLE NOR DEPENDABLE AND CURRENTLY HAS A RECALL ON THE FUEL PUMP RELAY TO FIX THE RECALL THAT DID NOT WORK. I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE SOME ASSISTANCE I CANNOT BE THE ONLY ONE WITH A DODGE VEHICLE FROM THIS RECALL THAT IS NOT HAVE ISSUES!

MY DURANGO HAS STALLED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE RECALL FOR THE FUEL PUMP RELAY RECALL HAS BEEN PERFORMED AND REPLACED AND TWO NEW RELAYS HAVE BEEN INSTALLED. THE LAST RELAY LASTED TWO MONTHS AND FAILED COMPLETELY YESTERDAY. MY CAR HAS BEEN TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP. THERE IS AN OPEN RECALL ON THIS ISSUE WITH NO TIMELINE FOR A FIX. I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH YESTERDAY TO GET THE CAR TO A PARKING SPACE INSTEAD OF PULLING INTO TRAFFIC ON A BUSY ROAD BEFORE IT DIED.

I WAS INFORMED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THE FUEL PUMP RELAY GOT TOO HOT AND CAUSED THE CAR TO FAIL. HOW DOES A PERSON KNOW WHEN OR IF THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN AND IS THIS NOT A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER STOPPING THE VEHICLE THE WARNING MESSAGE DISPLAYED INDICATING A FAILURE WITH THE BATTERY AND SMOKE WAS PRESENT COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE.

THE VEHICLE WAS LATER TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR WERE REPLACED AND THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED.

FUEL PUMP RELAY RECALL STILL NOT FIXED. THIS IS ONE OF THE VEHICLES THAT IS FAILING. IT IS A DANGER TO DRIVE. IT STALLS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, TAKES A VERY LONG TIME TO START. WHEN IT STALLS THE BRAKING FAILS (MY MAIN CONCERN). CONTACTED CHRYSLER MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY TELL ME KEEP DRIVING THE CAR, NO FIX ANYTIME SOON. THE RECALLL STARTED LAST YEAR. A DEADLINE OR ANOTHER TEMPORARY VEHICLE SHOULD REALLY BE PUT IN PLACE.

I PURCHASED MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO, USED, WITH APPROXIMATELY 75K MILES. SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, I'VE EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS PROBLEMS THAT BEGAN WITH THE TRANSMISSION. ADDITIONALLY, THE CAR GOES INTO "LOW GEAR" EVEN WHEN YOU DON'T TURN THE KNOB. OVER THE PAST YEAR, THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP MORE TIMES THAN I CAN COUNT FOR THE DOORS LOCKING AND UNLOCKING ON THEIR OWN. I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS WHEN IN PUBLIC. MY KEY FOB HASN'T WORKED EVEN AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY INSIDE. THE CAR HAS SET THE ALARM OFF EVEN WHEN UNPROMPTED. IT WILL LOCK/UNLOCK WHILE DRIVING.THE CAR HAS STALLED, WHILE DRIVING, AT LEAST 3 TIMES SINCE NOVEMBER 2019. FOR EACH OCCURRENCE, THE VEHICLE WAS SLOWING/EXCELLING WITH A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR TO TURN INTO A PARKING LOT. ON ONE OCCASION, THE CAR WOULD NOT CRANK OVER AND A RED LIGHT WAS BLINKING ON THE DASH. THE LOCK ISSUE BEGAN HAPPENING AGAIN AND I COULD NOT GET IT STARTED. IT HAD BEEN STATIONARY. WHEN I CAME BACK TO THE VEHICLE LATER, IT WORKED FINE WITH NO RED LIGHT. THE MECHANICS NOTICED THE TEMPERAMENTAL PROBLEMS BUT COULD NOT GET THE VEHICLE TO CONSISTENTLY REPEAT THE PROBLEM. I'VE ALSO REPLACED THE WATER PUMP AND HAD ISSUES WITH THE AIR CONDITIONING. AT THIS MOMENT, IT DOESN'T WANT TO WORK FOR THE DRIVER'S SPOT ONLY.

RECALL 19V-813 IS FOR SAFETY AND HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED SINCE THE ENGINE BEGAN STOPPING IN 2013 NOR SINCE THE FIRST RECALL OR SINCE THE SECOND RECALL IN NOVEMBER 2019. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I HAVE HAD THE CAR STOP WHILE DRIVING AND NOT RESTART. SOMETIMES IT DOES NOT START IN THE GARAGE. I HIT THE FUEL PUMP RELAY WITH A HAMMER AND IT WILL WORK FOR A LITTLE WHILE. DODGE DOES NOT ALLOW ME TO FIX THIS MYSELF. CAN I HAVE A NEW CAR?

VEHICLE HAS STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES. EITHER RIGHT AFTER START UP OR WHILE DRIVING. IN ALL CASES I HAVE FOUND THAT THE 20 AMP FUSE THAT WAS INSTALLED FOR RECALL R09 FROM 2015 IS MELTING AND CAUSING THE FUEL PUMP RELAY TO FAIL WHICH IS CAUSING THE STALL CONDITION. THE FUSE IS EASILY REPLACED BUT THE STALLING IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE FREQUENT, HAPPENING AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK. DODGE SAYS THERE IS NO REMEDY FOR THIS AND THERE ARE NO PARTS TO JUST REPLACE THE CURRENT SET UP. SO NOW I AM STUCK WITH THIS ISSUE UNTIL DODGE FIGURES OUT WHAT IS WRONG. EACH INSTANCE OF STALLING HAS OCCURED AT 25 MPH OR LESS BUT ITS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE IT HAPPENS AT A HIGHER SPEED.

DURING SUMMER 2017, 5.7L HEMI STARTED TO MAKE A NOTICEABLE CLICKING NOISE AT 70,000 MILES ALTHOUGH IT HAD BEEN METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED. IN SEPT 2017 AT 72,000 THE ENGINE FAILED WITH A GRINDED CAMSHAFT DUE TO A ROLLER/LIFTER FAILURE. THE ENGINE HAD TO BE REPLACED OUT OF WARRANTY BY SPECIALTY HEMI ENGIEN SHOP PRO ENGINES LLC IN ELON, NC. TODAY, I AM REALIZING THAT THIS WAS NOT A RANDOM OCCURRENCE. I HAVE FOUND MANY TESTIMONIES ONLINE AND IN PERSON OF 5.7L HEMI OWNERS HAVING EXPERIENCED SIMILAR DRAMATIC AND COSTLY FAILURES OF THEIR ENGINE CAMSHAFT DUE ROLLER / LIFTER FAILURE AS EXPLAINED CLEARLY FOR EXAMPLE IN THESE VIDEOS: HERE (HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=INPUZ3PCHA0), HERE (HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=LG5QX9QOJGO) OR HERE (HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=_2CX11TUTIC) LUCKILY THIS ENGINE FAILURE DID NOT CAUSE INJURY AS IT FAILED WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, BUT I CONCUR THAT IT COULD HAVE IF THE FAILURE AT HAPPENED AT THE WRONG MOMENT AND I THINK THAT DODGE IS WELL AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND THAT IT IS TRYING TO HIDE IT I CONCUR THAT THE CAMSHAFT FAILURE IS AN ENGINEERING ISSUE THAT DODGE SHOULD CORRECT AND FIX UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY AS REPLACING THE ENGINE WAS VERY EXPANSIVE AND IS TOTALLY OUTRAGEOUS FOR A LESS THAN 6 YEARS OLD AND 72,000 MILES PERFECTLY MAINTAINED TRUCK. I WISH THAT NHTSA RECEIVES ENOUGH COMPLAINS TO BOLSTER CONSUMERS IN RECEIVING TECHNICAL AND FINANCIAL HELP FROM THE MANUACTURER BEST, [XXX] REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CC

I WAS DRIVING 65 MPH WHEN I NOTICED THE 4WD LOW LIGHT COME ON WITHOUT HAVING SWITCHED TO THAT SETTING. THE CAR ENGINE WAS RACING. I CAME TO A STOP AT A SAFE SPOT, SHIFTED INTO PARK AND SWITCHED THE 4WD LOW KNOB TO THE NORMAL POSITION OF AWD. I DIDN'T NOTICE ANY ISSUES FOR SEVERAL MONTHS; THE CAR WAS OPERATIONAL. THEN, I WAS DRIVING LESS THAN 10 MPH IN 2WD ON A GRAVEL DRIVEWAY. THE CAR SHIFTED INTO AWD FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS ON A MUDDY SPOT, THEN THE AWD OFF LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH, ALONG WITH THE SERVICE AWD LIGHT. I TOOK THE CAR TO A REPAIR SHOP TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THE CAR WAS RUNNING IN 2WD AND I DIDN'T SWITCH IT TO 4WD LOW. THE REPAIR PERSON SHIFTED IT INTO 4WD LOW AND IT GOT STUCK THERE. THE REPAIR PERSON SAID IT WAS THE TRANSFER MOTOR CASE OR A SENSOR, WITHOUT 100 CERTAINTY. I'M CONCERNED THAT, EVEN IF REPLACED AND REPAIRED WITH CURRENT MODELS OF THE TRANSFER MOTOR CASE, THE CAR WILL UNEXPECTEDLY SHIFT INTO 4WD LOW WHILE DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE AND CASE DAMAGE TO THE CAR AND AN ACCIDENT.

IT HAS HAPPENED ON BOTH HIGHWAY AND SIDE ROADS. I AM UNAWARE THAT THE CAR HAS LOST POWER UNTIL I REALIZE THAT MY POWER STEERING AND BRAKES DON'T WORK.

THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WENT BAD 10/2018. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE DEALERSHIP PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND IT INDICATED THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS BAD AND NEEDS REPLACEMENT ASAP. WITHIN THE STATE OF PA. IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE EMISSION SYSTEM UPDATE WITHIN STATE STANDARDS. THE COST WAS ABOUT $1,400. I CHECK THE RECALL STATUS AND THERE IS NO RECALLS LISTED.

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD PROBABLY ABOUT 40 OR 45 MPH WHEN SHE HEARD A LOUD POP AND THE CAR BEGAN TO HANDLE WEIRD AND MAKING ALL KINDS OF NOISE. SHE GOT IT TO A NEARBY PARKING LOT WHERE I MET HER TO LOOK AT IT. AT FIRST GLANCE I COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG EXCEPT FOR THE EXHAUST APPEARED TO BE BROKE SO I HAD HER DRIVE IT HOME SINCE SHE WAS ONLY A MILE FROM THE HOUSE. WHEN I GOT IT HOME UPON FURTHER INSPECTION I FOUND THAT THE REAR SUBFRAME FOR THE REAREND HAD RIPPED OUT OF THE UNIBODY FRAME. THERE CRACKS AND RUST IN THE FRAME. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE DODGE DEALER FOR THE LAST MONTH AND HALF AND DODGE IS REFUSING TO TAKE FAULT FOR THE MANUFACTURING DEFECT. INSURANCE HAS ALSO REFUSED TO PAY FOR IT AS THERE WAS NO SIGNS OF AN IMPACT. I AM LOOKING AT A 6000 DOLLAR OR MORE REPAIR FOR A 12,000 DOLLAR CAR THAT STILL HAS OVER 10,000 OWED ON IT. I'M AT A LOSS AS TO WHAT DO WITH THE SITUATION. THE DEALERSHIP HAS ALSO SAID THAT THERE'S NOTHING MORE THEY CAN DO FOR ME AND THAT I JUST NEED TO COME GET MY CAR

WHILE DRIVING LOST ALL STEERING - STEERING WHEEL SPINNED WITH NO CONTROL TO THE WHEELS. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON ROAD LOST ALL CONTROL OF STEERING. WAS ABLE TO STOP VEHICLE BEFORE VEHICLE VEERED INTO OTHER LANE OR DITCH. HAD TO CALL TOW TRUCK TO MOVE VEHICLE OUT OF ROADWAY AND TOWED TO DEALERSHIP.

RECALL HAS BEEN MADE BUT VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED EVEN THOUGH THE RECALL SPECIFICALLY STATES THE 2012 DODGE DURANGO MODEL

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE CAR LOST ALL POWER AND I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET IT OFF THE ROAD TO A PARKING LOT BEFORE I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT.

I HAVE HAD THE TIPM REPLACED BEFORE THE MANDATED RECALL ON THE ISSUE AND THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. I ALSO HAVE HAD THE FUEL PUMP RELAY WIRING HARNESS ADDED AND REPLACED WITHIN THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. YESTERDAY I WAS TOLD MY BATTERY WHICH WAS 19 MONTHS OLD, THE OLD ONE LASTED ME 6 YEARS, NEEDED TO BE REPLACED WHEN I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE. I REPLACED THE BATTERY EVEN THOUGH IT TESTED PERFECTLY FINE AT THE REPAIR SHOP IT WAS PURCHASED THROUGH.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 126,000.

THE 2012 DURANGO WILL RANDOMLY STALL PUT DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. WHEN IT DOES SO I LOOSE POWER TO EVERYTHING INCLUDING POWER STEERING WHICH IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES NOW AND SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. I WILL NO LONGER BE DRIVING THE CAR BUT CAN NOT AFFORD THE $300 DIAGNOSIS FEE FROM DODGE.

TALKED TO A MECHANIC WHO SAID THAT MY LIFTERS ARE RUINING MY CAMSHAFT AND THAT THEY NEED TO BE REPLACED. MY FATHER IN LAW ALSO HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO HIS 5.7 HEMI.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN THE STREET I SAW SOME WHITE SMOKE COMING OUT FROM THE HOOD I PARKED AND OPEN THE HOOD AND NOTICE THAT IN BACK OF THE ENGINE THERE WAS A FIRE. LUCKILY I CAUGHT ON TIME AND I WAS ABLE TO STOP IT BUT SOME OF THE WIRES GOT ALL BURNED UP.

WELL THERE'S SEVERAL ISSUES MAIN ONES BEING THE SELF ACCELERATIONS, NOT TO MENTION MAJOR FACTOR SCARY ONE IS MY VEHICLE GOES FROM P TO D WITHOUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE FOUND THIS OUT WHILE CAR WAS OFF MY 3YR OLD MOVED THE SHAFT FROM PARK TO NEUTRAL WHILE CLIMBING ACROSS TO ME AND CAR BEGAN TO ROLE.

HATCH WILL NOT STAY UP. GO TO OPEN IT AND IT FALLS CLOSED

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A 2 LANE HIGHWAY THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND ONCE PULLED OVER ON THE SHOULDER WE NOTICED A FUNNY SMELL AND FLAMES COMING UNDER THE HOOD. THE CAR BURNED UP AND ITS TOTALLED. LUCKILY NOONE IS HURT. *DT PHOTOS ATTACHED *JB

ENGINE STALLS WHEN STARTED FOR NO REASON. ENGINE ALSO CYCLES MULTIPLE TIMES WITH OUT STARTING. THEN WILL FINALLY START. THIS HAPPENS WITH THE KEY, OR USING HE PUSH BUTTON START. NO WARNING LIGHTS COME ON AND NO CODES TO READ AT DEALER. HEAD LIGHTS, INTERIOR LIGHTS FLICKER. LIKE NO POWER GETTING TO ENGINE. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING PERIODICALLY FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS. WE HAVE MONITORED DIFFERENT EVENTS TO TRY TO NARROW IT DOWN, HOWEVER THERE IS NO COMMON THREAD.

VEHICLE CUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING OR WANT START AT ALL WITHOUT A JUMP OFF CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID WITHOUT WARNING.

CAR SHUTS OF SUDDENLY AT ANY SPEED, IT CAN BE RESTARTED WHILE IN NEUTRAL. HOWEVER IT WONT GO BACK INTO GEAR EVEN THOUGH IT LETS ME PUT IT IN DRIVE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS IT'S VERY DANGEROUS AS ALL OF THE CARS FUNCTIONS GO DEAD POWER STEERING LIGHTS GAUGES, DOOR LOCKS WINDSHIELD WIPERS. IT CAUSES A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION ESPECIALLY AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE I CAN'T ALWAYS GET OVER TO A SAFE LANE TO PULL THE CAR OVER TO RESTART AND REENGAGE THE TRANSMISSION. DODGE NEEDS TO FIX THIS FREE OF CHARGE TO THE CUSTOMER

TIPM IS MALFUNCTIONING CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STALL WHILE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ALL EMERGENCY WARNING LIGHTS COME ON AND GAUGES WILL NOT FUNCTION. DODGE SAYS THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE A RECALL ON THE HIS ITEM EVEN THOUGH THEY DO ADMIT THAT IT HAS BECOME A MAJOR PROBLEM. IT IS NOT SAFE TO BE DRIVING WITH SUCH A MALFUNCTIONING PART.

DRIVING AT 35 MPH CAME TO A SLOW DOWN TO TURN VEHICLE SHUT OFF AND CAUSED ME TO GO INTO A DITCH AS NO BREAKS, NO STEERING, AND ALL POWER LOST. ONCE PUT INTO PARK STARTED BACK UP IMMEDIATELY. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THAT HAS HAPPENED FIRST TIME WAS AT A STOP LIGHT AND I WAS ABOUT TO TAKE OFF. NO WARNING OR ANYTHING. THE FIRST TIME I DIDN'T HAVE MY KIDS IN THE CAR AND THE SECOND TIME I DID AND WE COULD HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY HURT. I IS NOT SHOWING ANY CODES TO LET US KNOW WHAT I COULD POSSIBLY BE.

I PARKED MY CAR AT HOME. IN THE MORNING WHEN I PRESSED THE START SWITCH TO START THE CAR CRANK, AND IT DOES NOT START. I WAIT A MINUTE PRESS THE START SWITCH AGAIN AND THE CAR KEEPS CRANKING NO STOPPING UNTIL I MOVE MY GEAR FROM PARK TO REVERSE. I REMOVE THE SWITCH AND I ADD MY CAR KEY AND TRY AGAIN WITH CAR KEY. AFTER 3 TIMES THE CAR STARTS. I KNOW THERE'S A RECALL OR LAWSUIT FOR THIS ISSUE. I WANT MY CAR FIXED WITH NO COST FOR ME. I MAINTAIN MY CAR IN GOOD SHAPE AND URGE TO GET THIS DONE. THIS STARTED THIS WEEK 12/17/18

THIS IS THE 3RD TIME IN THE PAST 3 MONTHS I'VE BEEN TAKING THIS VEHICLE TO SERVICE FOR DIFFERENT SERVICE ISSUES. THE MOST RECENT ONE IS THE DASH AND WHIPERS STARTED GOING CRAZY, A SUDDEN SMELL OF BURNT WIRES/ELECTRIC BURN. THE VEHICLE SHUT DOWN WHILE IN MOTION LOCKING THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE GEAR SHIFTER DIDN'T WANT TO ENGAGE. I TRIED STARTING THE VEHICLE BUT IT WOULDN'T START. THE VEHICLE IS NOT COMUNICATING WITH THE STARTING KEY. THE VEHICLE GOT TOWED TO THE DEELSRSHIP AND AFTER TWO DAYS THEY CALLED ME BACK SAYING THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOT COMUNICATING WITH THE TIPM (TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE) THEREFOR THE CAN'T MAKE A DIAGNOSIS. THEY WILL HAVE TO CHECK EACH WIRE ONE BY ONE ABD THAT CHECK UP IS GOING TO COST 4 HOURS OF WORK AT A COST OF APPROXIMATELY $400 BEFORE THEY CAN RUN A DIAGNOSIS.

I FILED A COMPLAINT RECENTLY ABOUT MY VEHICLE STATING I THOUGHT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH MY TRANSMISSION SOLENOID BUT I TOOK IT TO A TRANSMISSION REPAIR SHOP TODAY AND WAS TOLD MY TRANSMISSION WAS FAILING. I'M FILING THIS COMPLETE CAUSE I BELIEVE THIS ISN'T SOMETHING THAT JUST HAPPENS OUT OF THE BLUE. I TAKE MY CAR IN FOR REGULAR CHECK UPS AND INSPECTIONS AND HAVE ALWAYS FIXED ANYTHING THAT WAS WRONG WITH IT. MY CAR IS STUCK IN GEAR 4 AND IT'S AN AUTOMATIC AND THIS IS A SUDDEN MISHAP THAT HAS ME WONDERING WHY THIS WOULD HAPPEN WITHOUT WARNING OR HAVE BEEN TOLD ABOUT THIS PROBLEM PRIOR TO IT HAPPENING.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO I NOTICED MY GEAR WOULD SHIFT TO MANUAL IN THE 4TH GEAR WITHOUT ME HAVING TO MOVE THE GEAR STICK. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THIS WAS COMMON IN A LOT OF DODGE/JEEP/CHRYSLER VECHILES. I TAKE MY CARE IN FOR REGULAR INSPECTIONS AND MAKE SURE MY CAR IS RUNNING. I THINK THIS IS A MANUFACTURING MISHAP AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. I WAS TOLD IT WAS MY TRANSMISSION CYCLOID.

SECOND ISSUE WITH AIR BAG. GOT 2012 DURANGO IN JAN 2013 - IN 2014 HAD TO PAY $635 TO FIX ANGLE SENSOR IN STEERING COLUMN AS IT WAS FAULTY. IT WAS NOT COVERED NOR RECALL. NOW DECEMBER 2018 NEED TO REPLACE AIR BAG AND WIRING. NO RECALL. HOW ARE THESE ITEM NOT SAFETY ISSUES AND RECALLED. EXTREMELY UPSET WITH CUSTOMER SERVICE AT CORPORATE. THIS PARTICULAR TRUCK HAS HAD NOTHING BUT TROUBLES SINCE I PURCHASED IT BRAND NEW.... WE PURCHASE NEW ONLY TO AVOID ISSUES BUT HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE!

"TAKATA RECALL". VEHICLE SHUT DOWN WHILE IN MOTION LOCKING THE STEERING WHEEL. DASH AND WIPERS STARTED GOING CRAZY THEN A SUDDEN SMELL OF BURNT WIRES/ELECTRIC BURN. THIS RESULTED ON COMPLETELY DEAD BATTERY DUE TO ALTERNATOR FAIL.

2012 DODGE DURANGO CREW WITH 5.7L HEMI ENGINE. 10/23/18 - VEHICLE THROUGH ENGINE ERROR CODE RELATED TO CYLINDER 8 MISFIRE. PULLED THE PLUGS AND CYLINDER 8 PLUG WAS BURNT. SINCE THE LAST PLUG CHANGE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN, I REPLACED ALL 16 SPARK PLUGS. VEHICLE STARTED AND RAN FINE. ERROR CODE CLEARED AND DID NOT REAPPER. 11/7/18 - WHILE DRIVING AT ~60MPH THROTTLE FLUTTERED AND VEHICLE THEN DIED. NO CHECK ENGINE OR WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. TRIED TO RE-START ENGINE SINCE NO WARNINGS WERE VISIBLE. ENGINE MADE GRINDING NOISE AND SEIZED. DETERMINED BY LUTHER BROOKDALE DODGE IN BROOKLYN PARK THAT THERE IS A HOLE IN THE BLOCK, ENGINE IS SEIZED AND THE ENGINE NEEDS REPLACEMENT. MILEAGE WAS 114,XXX. SAFETY ISSUE IS THAT VEHICLE DIED AT HIGHWAY SPEED, LEADING TO A LOSS OF POWER STEERING, AND ASSISTED BRAKING ABILITY. NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH SO THERE WAS NO VISIBLE INDICATOR OF ENGINE FAILURE.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE VEHICLE JUST SHUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING. SOMETIMES ITS JUST ALL THE LIGHTS AND ELECTRICAL GO OUT BUT THE VEHICLE STAYS RUNNING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND MAKING LEFT TURNS ONLY, THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE HOWEVER, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WOULD FLICKER WHILE STARTING THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE PASSENGER'S FRONT SEAT MELTED ALONG WITH THE REAR DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S HEATED SEAT ALSO SHOWED HEAT DAMAGE. ADDITIONALLY, THE REAR BACK-UP CAMERA WAS INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED. MASSEY YARDLEY JEEP CHRYSLER DODGE RAM (777 NORTH STATE ROAD 7, PLANTATION, FL 33317, (954) 327-4000) WAS CONTACTED AND NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 133,430. *TT*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER (CROWN DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM FIAT, 2707 SHORTCUT RD, PASCAGOULA, MS 39567, (228) 769-1660) DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT BUCKLES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKARA RECALL - LOUD CLICKING SOUNDS FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. TOOK IT LOCAL TRANSMISSION MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE TRANSFER CASE MOTOR. DID NOT GET A SAFETY WARNING LIGHT. AFTER CHECKING INTERNET NOTICE THAT I WAS THE FIRST WITH THIS PROBLEM. SEEMS DODGE HAS A HISTORY CONCERNING TRANSFER CASE MOTOR. THE CLICKING SOUNDS HAPPENED EVEN AFTER TURN VEHICLE OFF AND WHEN STARTING OR SHIFTING FROM P TO D,R OR N.

DRIVING, SUDDENLY CHARGING STATION LIGHT FLASHED ON SCREEN AND VEHICLE WAS MAKING REVING ENGINE SOUND. PULLED OVER AND SMOKE WAS EXITING FRONT GRILL. ALL ELECTRICAL DIED AND COULDN'T GET KEY OUT OF IGNITION. CALLED TOWING TO AUTO SHOP THAT WAS AVAILABLE IMMEDIATELY. DIAGNOSIS WAS ALTERNATOR HAD IGNITED COMPUTER SYSTEM THEREFORE ALL ELECTRICAL POWER OUTAGE.

BEGINNING IN DEC 2017, WE'VE HAD SPORADIC ISSUES WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAYS AND LOCAL ROADS WITH SOME PORTION OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THE CENTER LCD DASH SCREEN POWERS OFF, AND WE LOSE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. DASH LIGHTS, EXTERIOR LIGHTS, RADIO, A/C ALL STAY ON. TYPICALLY WE HAVE TO PULL OVER AND TURN THE CAR OFF & BACK ON FOR IT TO RETURN. FROM DEC-OCT, ITS HAPPENED APPROX 5-6 TIMES. THE DEALER WASN'T ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE FOR THE DAYS THEY HAD IT, AND NO ERROR CODES WERE WRITTEN. A FRIEND ALSO WITH A DURANGO DESCRIBED TO ME SIMILAR ISSUES WITH HIS, AND SAID HIS TIPM WAS FAULTY. WE HAVE LIFETIME WARRANTY, AND THE TIPM IS COVERED, BUT THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE IT UNTIL THE DEALER CAN REPLICATE THE ISSUE AND GET AN ERROR CODE POINTING TO THE TIPM. I BELIEVE BECAUSE WE LOSE POWER STEERING, THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE REPLACED REGARDLESS.

WHILE DRIVING 55 MILES AN HOUR ON A STATE ROAD DRIVING STRAIGHT THE CAR COMPLETELY STARTED GOING CRAZY. THE DASHBOARD WAS BLINKING INDICATING THAT MY SEATBELT WAS NOT BUCKLED WHICH IT WAS, THE CAR WENT FROM DRIVE TO PARK TO NEUTRAL THE WIPERS STARTED AND IT WASN'T RAINING AND THE CAR THEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN STOPPED DEAD. THE DEALER SAYS MY SPECIFIC CAR VIN IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL WHERE THIS EXACT PROBLEM WAS STATED IN TWO PRIOR RECALLS. THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS EVENT AND I COULD HAVE BEEN HURT OR SOMEONE ELSE HURT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE JERKED BACK AND FORTH. IN ADDITION, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND CODE: P0303 (MISFIRE) DISPLAYED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SJ DENHAM CHRYSLER JEEP FIAT (772 N MARKET ST, REDDING, CA 96003, 530-241-1756) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CAM SHAFT AND LIFT WERE FRACTURED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 73,850.

MY DURANGO HAD BEEN REPAIRED PER RECALL R09, AND NOW THE VEHICLE IS DOING THE SAME THING AS IT WAS BEFORE THE REPAIR, WHICH IS HAVE FAILED STARTS, AND THE ENGINE SHUTTING DOWN WHILE DRIVING ( VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY ON THE FREEWAY).

REGARDING SAFETY RECALL R09 / NHTSA 15V-115 FUEL PUMP RELAY - 2012-2013 DODGE DURANGO & JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE THIS RECALL WAS PERFORMED ON MY VEHICLE A FEW MONTHS AGO, THE OTHER WEEK THE FIX FAILED SEVERAL TIMES STARTING THE CAR AND ONCE WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION. I TOOK IT BACK IN TO THE DEALER TO GET THE FIX REDONE, IN THE TWO DAYS SINCE THE REDO THE CAR HAS ALREADY NOT STARTED SEVERAL TIMES AND STOPPED SUPPLYING POWER TO THE FUEL PUMP WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION ONCE. SO IN SHORT, THE FIX FOR THE ORIGINAL SAFETY ISSUE DOES NOT WORK AND IS EVEN WORSE THAN BEFORE THE FIX. SEARCHING ONLINE SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE ALSO HAVE HAD THE FIX FAIL ON THEM AS WELL.

I HAVE A 2012 DODGE DURANGO WITH 110000 MILES ON IT. TOOK IT TOO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE OF A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE ENGINE FELT LIKE IT WAS RUNNING GOOD. IT TURNED OUT THAT THREE OF MY LIFTERS WERE BAD WHICH ALSO MESSED UP THE CAMSHAFT. HAD TO REPLACE THE ENGINE BECAUSE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE SAME PRICE TO FIX IT, IF THE OTHER SIDE WE'RE BAD TOO. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH DODGE AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT

WE PURCHASED A CAR IN MARCH 2018, CAME TO FIND OUT IT HAD AN OPEN RECALL ON THE ALTERNATOR. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY FIXED IT BUT THEY INSTALLED AN ALTERNATOR THAT ALSO HAS AN OPEN RECALL SO WE ASSUME THEY TOOK THE PART FROM ANOTHER VEHICLE INSTEAD OF REPLACING IT WITH A NEW ONE.

THIS VEHICLE HAS A LOT OF ELECTRICAL ISSUES. THE PUSH START DOESN'T ALWAYS WORK AND STALLS OUT. THE CAR HAS ALSO LOST POWER WHILE I WAS DRIVING LUCKILY IT KICK BACK ON BEFORE SOMETHING SERIOUS HAPPENED. IT ALSO TENDS TO SHIFT GEARS VERY HARD AT TIMES.

3 YEARS AFTER HAVING MY FUEL PUMP RELAY RECALL PERFORMED ON MY 2012 DURANGO CREW THE SAME EXACT SYMPTOMS ARE HAPPENING. STALLING OUT WHILE DRIVING AND THE CAR WILL TRY TO CRANK BUT NOT FULLY TURN OVER. PUT THE DURANGO IN THE SHOP AND IT'S THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN THE FUEL PUMP RELAY AND WE HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THE REPAIR. THIS PART SHOULD NOT BE FAILING AGAIN AFTER A 30,000 MILE 3YEAR DIFFERENCE ON A 70,000 MILE CAR. WHAT EVER PARTS THEY USED FOR RECALL ARE FAULTY AND EVENTUALLY FAIL. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO HAVE MY FUEL PUMP RELAY CHANGED AGAIN ON THIS CAR. DODGE NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND FIX THE ISSUE THE FIRST TIME AND NOT PUT BURDEN ON THEIR CUSTOMERS OF THEIR DEFECTS. I'M PUTTING THIS OUT THERE FOR ANYONE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AFTER THEIR RECALL WAS FIXED. COMPLAIN! SO WE AREN'T RESPONSIBLE FOR DODGE MISTAKES.

ONCE AGAIN IM DRIVING TO WORK ON 7/30/18 AS I GO TO GET OFF MY EXIT MY TRUCK SHUTS OFF AND ALMOST GOT STRUCK BY A TRACTOR TRAILOR. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS APPRANTLY MY TRUCK ISNT ON IT BUT ITS DOING EXACTLY WHAT THE RECALL EXPLAINED. THIS TIME I WAS LUCKY THAT THE TRUCK DRIVER WASNT FOLLOWING TO CLOSE OR I PROBLY WOULDNT BE HERE TO TYPE THIS PROBLEM, I HOPE YOU GUYS CAN TAKE THE TIME OUT AND HELP ME WITH THIS SITUATION BEFORE IT BECOMES A BIG PROBLEM WHERE AS I MIGHT DIE DUE TO NOTHING IS BEING DONE. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR TAKING THE TIME OUT TO READ MY EMAIL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH AND DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY DECELERATED AND SHUT OFF. AFTER APPROXIMATELY TEN MINUTES, THE ENGINE WAS RESTARTED AND THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE A SECOND TIME BEFORE IT WAS TAKEN TO MOHAVE MOTORS (631 W. MAIN ST, BARSTOW, CA). THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000. **TR CONSUMER STATED THIS IS WHERE I INQUIRED ABOUT ANY RECALLS. THIS IS WHERE I WAS MEANT BY SUPPOSEDLY BY HEAD MECHANIC, WHO WAS REDO, OBNOXIOUS, AND INCOMPENTENT. MY DURANGO WAS NEVER TAKEN THERE, WHEN I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALLS AND THEY WOULD TINKER WITH IT, WITH A SMIRK, I LEFT NEVER TO GO THERE AGAIN. 7/30/18 MANUFACTURE WAS CALLED SAME ANSWER NO RECALLS. I THEN TOOK IT TO VICTORVILLE MOTORS. THE HARNESS THAT WAS ATTACHED TO THE RECALL RELAY PUMP, BURNT TO A CRISP. PART REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A PERMANENT REMEDY FOR THIS CONDITION IS CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE.UPDATED 10/22/18*JB

BAD CAMS IN LESS THAN 100,000 MILES. ENGINE MISFIRE ON 5TH CYLINDER, UNABLE TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHING. $4,700 REPAIR.

OK, SO WHILE I'M DRIVING TO WORK ON A BUSY HIGHWAY GO TO GET OFF MY EXIT LIKE ALWAYS MY TRUCK AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING PROBLEM. I TAKE MY TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT, THEN I READ ABOUT A RECALL ON THE ALTERNATOR AND THE PROBLEM IT IS CAUSING WHICH SOUNDS LIKE WHAT I AM EXPERIENCING AT THE MOMENT. I AM AFRAID THAT THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN WHILE I HAVE MY FAMILY IN THE TRUCK WITH ME AND GET REAR ENDED. SO I PRAY THAT YOU GUYS CAN COME UP WITH THE RIGHT SOLUTION FOR MY TRUCK. HOPEFULLY WE CAN TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM BEFORE IT KILLS ME AND MY FAMILY, THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ MY SITUATION

THERE IS A RECALL ON 2012 DODGE DURANGO ALTERNATOR BUT I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY INFORMATION ON THIS RECALL. AS I'M DRIVING MY TRUCK SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING, I'M AFRAID THAT IF MY WIFE DRIVES MY TRUCK AND THIS HAPPENS TO HER OR MYSELF WITH OUR KIDS IN THE VEHICLE AND SOMEONE SLAMS IN THE BACK OF US I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'LL DO. SO I TOOK IT TO LIA DODGE WHERE I PURCHASED IT BUT THEY SAY IT'S NOTHING COMING UP WHEN THEY SCAN IT. BUT ONCE AGAIN LIKE I STATED IT KEEPS SHUTTING OFF AT LEAST 2_3TIMES PURE MONTH. SO I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THIS PROBLEM CAN BE TAKEN CARE OF FAST. THANK YOU IN ADVANCED

HANKOOK ROADHANDLER H/T TIRES ON AN SUV -SEVERE TIRE DEFECT THIS TIRE WAS NOT LISTED IN CHOICES SO I CHOOSE ROADHANDLER SPORT -MY TIRES ARE ROADHANDLER H/T , THEY ARE SUV TIRES, UNSURE OF SIZE CAR WAS NOT HANDLING WELL AND FELT FUNNY AT TIMES WHEN DRIVING, I HAD SOME OTHER ISSUES WITH THE CAR SO BROUGHT IT TO GARAGE AND THEY NOTIFIED ME OF THE SEVERE TIRE DEFECT

THE REAR LIFT GATE CLOSES WITHOUT WARNING RAPIDLY AND WITH GREAT FORCE. IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. IT COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THE STRUTS ARE BAD. I WAS ALSO TOLD I SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM IN THE SUMMER. I DO NOT THINK IT IS EVER ACCEPTABLE THAT THUS OCCURS. I HAVE FOUR CHILDREN AND THIS US UNACCEPTABLE. I CONTACTED DODGE AND THEY WILL NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY SINCE I AM NOT THE ORIGINAL OWNER. I CAN PROVIDE VIDEO OF THIS OCCURRENCE.

THE BATTERY GETS DRAIN OUT WITHOUT WARNING IT HAPPENS ONCE OR TWICE A MONTH LATELY IT'S HAPPENING MORE OFTEN, MY TRUCK WON'T START EVEN IF THE DAY BEFORE WAS RUNNING BATTERY WAS CHECK AND IT'S FINE. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IT'S ON NOW ONCE THE TRUCK DIDN'T WANT TO TURN ON. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND HE SAID IT WAS A RELAY ISSUE. BRAKES ARE IN THE RECALL VIN CHECK LIST ALONG ONE OTHER RECALL. THE LIGHTS INSIDE TURN ON AND OFF AS WELL AS IF THERE IS A SHORT GOING ON WHILE IN DRIVING MODE IT FEELS LIKE THE TRUCK IS LOOSING POWER EVEN THOUGH IT HAS GAS. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT.

REPAIRD BRAKE BOOSTER SHIELD IN 2016 UNDER RECALL P14 NHTSA 14V-154 AT THE DEALERSHIP, NO I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM BECAUSE THE BOOSTER SHIELD WAS INSTALLED INCORECTLY AND THERE IS ANOTHER RECALL T59 BUT DEALER IS TRYING TO TELL ME LAST TIME T WAS N ALTERNATOR AND HAVING ME WAIT OVER A WEEK FOR APT TO FIX IT, TOTALLY IRRESPONSIBLE AND RIDICULOUS. I WAS GOING ABOUT 20MPH AND COULD NOT STOP THE CAR.

USING THE PUSH BUTTON START SYSTEM, WITH THE ENGINE OFF, THE BRAKE PEDAL NOT DEPRESSED, AND THE TRANSMISSION GEAR SELECTOR SET TO P(ARK). WHEN THE PUSH BUTTON START IS PRESSED TWICE, THE VEHICLE ATTEMPTED TO START UP, AND STARTED TO MOVE ON IT'S OWN. THERE WAS NOBODY IN THE DRIVER SEAT, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS NOT DEPRESSED, THE TRANSMISSION WAS IN PARK. BLUE WATER CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP IN FORT GRATIOT, MI HAS VERIFIED THIS TO BE HAPPENING AND REPRODUCIBLE.

SUNDAY, JUNE 3, 2018, MY AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WITH THE INTERMITTENT AND ANNOYING 'DING' TO SIGNAL AN ISSUE. THE VEHICLE WAS WORKING FINE WHEN I PARKED IT THE NIGHT BEFORE WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS ON. LIGHT WILL PERIODICALLY GO OUT BRIEFLY AND THEN COME BACK ON WITH THE 'DING.' I WAS DRIVING THE CAR THE FIRST TIME I NOTICED IT. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE HAD AN ISSUE WITH THIS LIGHT COMING ON. PREVIOUSLY, IT WAS 'TAKEN CARE OF' WHEN I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN FOR RECALL WORK.

WE HAVE TAKEN MY SUV IN FOR THIS STARTER ISSUE FOR ALMOST AS LONG AS WE HAVE HAD IT. IT ACTS AS THOUGH IT IS STARTING BUT WONT TURN OVER. WE HAVE TO POP OUT THE PUSH TO START BUTTON AND MANUALLY TURN THE CAR OFF FOR IT TO STOP. IT DOES THIS MULTIPLE TIMES IN A ROW BEFORE STARTING. FINALLY AFTER 4 OR 5 VISITS FOR THE ISSUE, DODGE SAYS ITS SOME FUEL PUMP RELAY SO THEY FIXED THAT, BUT THE PROBLEM RETURNED. THE CAR COMPLETELY STALLED ONE DAY WHILE WE WERE DRIVING, AND IT STOPPED TURNING ON. WE LOST ALL POWER, NO POWER STEERING, AND EVERY LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH BOARD. THIS HAPPENED AS WE WERE EXITING THE DALLAS NORTH TOLLWAY... LUCKILY WE WERE EXITING! WE WERE ABLE TO PULL OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WE HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS OCCURRED IN NOV/DEC 2017. OVER A PERIOD OF ABOUT 4-6 WEEKS, THEY REPLACED THE PCM AND CAT CONVERTER (BOTH) AND ALTERNATOR. NOW 4.5 MONTHS LATER THE PROBLEM HAS RETURNED WITH STARTER CONSTANTLY TURNING OVER, ITS HAPPENED 2 DAYS IN A ROW NOW. WE HAVE TO TRAVEL DAILY 20 MILES EACH WAY DOWN THE I30 CORRIDOR IN THE DFW AREA . WE ARE AFRAID THAT THE CAR WILL JUST STALL GOING DOWN THE FREEWAY. ALL SIGNS POINT TO A TIPM PROBLEM, BUT THE DEALERSHIP IS UNWILLING TO REPLACE.

BLIND SPOT DETECTION SYSTEM FAILED. LOCATION OF MODULES CAUSE IT TO DETERIORATE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V435000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) AND WAITED MONTHS TO SCHEDULE A RECALL REPAIR. THE DEALER (DAVE DENNIS CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM, 4232 COLONEL GLENN HWY, DAYTON, OH 45431, (937) 429-5566) WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHEN THE PART WOULD BE SUPPLIED FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THE CONTACT WAS UNCERTAIN AS TO WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD BE REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS ALSO CONCERNED THAT HE WAS EXPERIENCING A FAILURE DUE TO THE RECALL BECAUSE THE CD PLAYER WAS WARM WHEN EJECTING A CD. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS WAITING TO DETERMINE A RESPONSE FROM THE MANUFACTURER CONCERNING PART AVAILABILITY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

2012 DURANGO SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (AIRBAGS) LIGHT STUCK ON. APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AS THERE ARE OTHER COMPLAINTS. WHAT WE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IS, WHILE DODGE SAYS TO HAVE THE VEHICLE SERVICED IMMEDIATELY UPON THE LIGHT COMING ON, WHAT HAPPENS IF IMMEDIATE SERVICING IS NOT POSSIBLE? ARE THE BAGS GOING TO DEPLOY AT ANY TIME? WILL THEY NOT DEPLOY WHEN THEY SHOULD? AS THERE ARE A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT AIRBAGS IN THE VEHICLE, IS ONE BAG MORE AFFECTED THAN ANOTHER? HELP NHTSA! AIRBAG SYSTEMS SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO FAIL IN ANY WAY. MANUFACTURERS SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE! THE OTHER COMPLAINTS LISTED ON THIS SITE SOUND HORRIFYING. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM!

THE CHECK ENGINE BULB IS FUNCTIONAL (LIGHTS UP INITIALLY WHEN TURNING ON THE VEHICLE), BUT DOES NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN THERE IS AN ENGINE CODE REPORTED. I'VE ENCOUNTERED 2 DIFFERENT PROBLEMS WHERE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DIDN'T ILLUMINATE. THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL WAS MALFUNCTIONING, AND THE CAR OCCASIONALLY WENT INTO LIMP MODE, USUALLY ON HIGHWAYS WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT, SOMETIMES AT HIGH SPEEDS, RISKING A REAR END COLLISION. FORTUNATELY THE THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT ILLUMINATED, BUT THERE WAS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE CRUISE CONTROL IS MALFUNCTIONING, DISENGAGING AT RANDOM TIMES AT HIGH SPEEDS ON A HIGHWAY, AGAIN RISKING A REAR END COLLISION. NO INDICATOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATE, AND THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. AN ENGINE CODE READ REPORTS ERROR P0572, WHICH INDICATES A PROBLEM WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL, BUT THERE IS STILL NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED.

ON OCTOBER 2,2012 I PURCHASED A DODGE DURANGO WITH LESS THAN 100 MILES.. I HAVE ALWAYS KEPT UP WITH SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE. I'M STILL SEARCHING FOR ALL MY PAPERWORK.. I FOUND PAPERWORK WHERE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AT 81,552 -02/21/15--12/31/15--10/14/17--10/14/17---10/17/17--04/02/18.. I HAVE SPENT OVER $3,000 DOLLARS TO REPAIR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, NOW IM TOLD THAT THIS VEHICLE THAT I HAVE PAID APPROXIMATELY OVER $40,000 NOT INCLUDING ALL THE REPAIRS WILL NOT BE FIXED AND PERHAPS I NEED TO TRADE IT IN FOR ANOTHER VEHICLE.. I AM EXTREMELY OUTRAGED WITH THIS COMPANY AND FEEL I HAVE BEEN RIPPED OFF. THIS VEHICLE HAD AND HAS A LOT OF RECALLS ALL WHICH I HAVE KEPT UP ON AND STILL IM NOT ABLE TO ENJOY MY VEHICLE..I DONT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE ANYMORE.. ENGINE SHUT DOWN AND EVEN AFTER ALL THE MONEY INVESTED IM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS..I HAVE ALL THE DOCUMENTS RELATING TO THIS ENGINE PROBLEM. I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER.. THANK YOU

THE ORC MODULE NOT WORKING I JUST DRIVING AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT TURN ON

CAR NOT STARTING ACTS LIKE NOT GETTING ANY FUEL OR MAY START AND DIE LIKE NOT GETTING ENOUGH FUEL. AUTO HEADLIGHTS WILL SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING OR MAY NOT COME ON AT ALL

WE HAD AN EXHAUST LEAK, AND WE DIDN'T THINK THAT IT WAS A BIG DEAL MAYBE A BROKEN SEAL. I NOTICED THE LEAK WHEN I USED MY REMOTE START IN THE MORNING.TURNS OUT THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD WARPED AND BROKE BOLTS! THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED SOME SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE IF IT HADN'T BEEN LOOKED INTO. I LOOKED AT OTHER DODGE DURANGO OWNER SITES AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AMONGST OWNERS OF THIS MAKE AND MODEL.

I HAD A PASSENGER SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT MOVING THE SEAT BACK WITH POWER CONTROLS AND THE HEADREST DEPLOYED WHILE I WAS DRIVING LESS THAN 30 MPH IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA, DID NOT KNOW WHAT IT WAS AT FIRST, IT WAS LOUD POPPING SOUND...ONCE I LEARNED WHAT HAPPENED I LOOKED UP TO SEE HOW TO RESET IT AND ATTEMPTED SO..WITH NO SUCCESS. THE BRACKETS THAT HOLD THE PIN IS/WAS BROKEN. I ALSO LEARNED THIS IS NOT SUPPOSE TO HAPPEN UNLESS YOU ARE HIT FROM BEHIND AND IT SHOULD DEPLOY TO AVOID WHIPLASH, THIS WAS NOT THE CASE, LUCKILY MY PASSENGER WAS NOT INJURED FROM THE HEADREST DEPLOYING PREMATURELY. I CONTACTED THE DEALER TO LEARN THIS WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY PLAN I HAVE. THE REPAIR COST IS 911.85 THAT I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR, I PAID 135 JUST TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT, WHICH WILL GO TOWARDS REPAIRS IF FIXED WITHIN 30DAYS, THIS COST IS NOT WITHIN REACH FOR ME. I HAVE ALSO READ OTHER DODGE MODELS WITH THE SAME ISSUE IN THE PAST. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS AS THIS IS NOT UNCOMMON BUT VERY COSTLY TO THE CAR OWNER. THANK YOU. MILEAGE THIS OCCURRED AT 52000

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE DECELERATED AND THEN STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALTERNATOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT CALLED SOUTH COUNTY DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM AT (314) 487-1010 (7127 S LINDBERGH BLVD, ST. LOUIS, MO 63125) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THEY WERE NOT ACCEPTING RECALLS. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V435000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 109,850.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER, THE VEHICLE SLID ON ICE, INTO AN EMBANKMENT, WENT AIRBORNE, AND CRASHED INTO A TREE. THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED WITH FORCE, BUT FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. NONE OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED A FRACTURED BACK IN TWO PLACES AND A RUPTURED LEFT BREAST IMPLANT, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL TREATMENT. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY TO A FACILITY AND A YARD, BUT WAS NOT INVESTIGATED BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY OR A DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 15V115000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM), 17V435000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM), AND 17V572000 (SERVICE BRAKES, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE REPAIRS HAD NOT BEEN COMPLETED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AFTER THE CRASH TO INQUIRE ABOUT THE AIR BAGS NOT DEPLOYING. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT YET ISSUED ANY TSBS OR RECALLS FOR THE AIR BAGS. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 186,000. *BF *TR *BF *BF *TR

AT LESS THAN 73,000 MILES ON VEHICLE AND JUST SIX YEARS OLD THE AIR BAG LIGHT WILL GO OFF AND ON. THE LIGHT WILL BLINK ON AND OFF AT ALL TIMES THEN WILL GO OFF FOR WEEKS THEN COME BACK ON AND STAY ON. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT MUST GET FIXED BY MANUFACTURER.

AFTER PRESSING THE VEHICLE IGNITION BUTTON TO TURN OFF, IF YOU PRESS THE BUTTON TO TURN IT BACK ON, IT CONSTANTLY TRIES TO TURN OVER. THIS HAPPENS ALSO WHEN YOU PRESS THE IGNITION BUTTON AND IT DOESN'T TURN OVER. IF YOU PRESS THE IGNITION BUTTON, IT DOESN'T START, PRESS THE BUTTON AGAIN, IT CONSTANTLY TURNS OVER. THE ONLY WAY TO SUCCESSFULLY START IT AFTER THAT IS TO GET OUT OF VEHICLE, CLOSE THE DOOR, AND GET BACK IN. THIS HAS HAPPENED A NUMEROUS AMOUNT OF TIMES.

WHEN ATTEMPTING TO TURN THE HEAT ON IN THE DURANGO, DRIVER'S SIDE HEAT WORKS WELL, BUT PASSENGER AND BACKSEAT HAVE COLD AIR BLOWING OUT. DURANGO WAS PLACED ON SYNC TO HAVE THE WHOLE VEHICLE WARM TO THE SAME TEMP. I HAVE HEARD AND READ ABOUT MANY COMPLAINS OF THIS SAME ISSUE.

2012 DURANGO HAS CONTINUED TO PERIODICALLY STALL WHEN COMING TO A STOP. VEHICLE IS ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY RESTART AFTER PUTTING IN PARK. PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ALMOST A YEAR AND HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP CONTINUOUSLY TO FIND AND FIX PROBLEM. PROPER SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE HAVE BEEN PREFORMED FOR THE DURATION OF THE OWNERSHIP OF THIS VEHICLE. DEALERSHIP STATES THAT NO CODES FOR THE STALLING ARE PRESENTING AND ARE NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM, SO THEY ARE UNABLE TO PROCEED WITH FURTHER INVESTIGATION. THERE ARE CONCERNS FOR SAFETY OF FAMILY AND SAFETY OF DRIVING THIS VEHICLE WITH NOT KNOWING WHEN ANOTHER STALL WILL OCCUR. SO FAR, THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN ON A CITY STREET DECELERATING INTO A STOP AT LOW SPEEDS WHEN THE STALLING OCCURS. MOST RECENTLY, VEHICLE WAS SLOWING DOWN TO YIELD FOR A TRAFFIC CIRCLE WHEN THE STALLING OCCURRED MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO FULLY BRAKE AND MANAGE THE STEERING WHEEL. SOME OF THE SERVICES COMPLETED TO HOPEFULLY RECTIFY THE STALLING WERE; FUEL PUMP RELAY REPLACED, EVAPORATE SYSTEM INTEGRITY MONITOR REPLACED, BOTH FUEL PUMPS REPLACED, TRANSMISSION SERVICE PERFORMED. STALLING IS STILL OCCURRING PERIODICALLY WITH NO RESOLUTION AT THIS TIME. FIRST TIME THE VEHICLE STALLED WAS IN THE BEGINNING OF 2017 (NOT SURE OF SPECIFIC DATE). IT STALLED A FEW TIMES BEFORE WE BROUGHT IT IN TO BE CHECKED OUT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH EXITING THE FREEWAY, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO ACCELERATE AND THE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CONTINUED DRIVING AND DID NOT COAST OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE SHOOK VIOLENTLY WHILE DRIVING. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TURLOCK CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (1600 AUTO MALL DR, TURLOCK, CA 95380) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SOFTWARE NEEDED TO BE UPGRADED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. WHILE AT A STOP SIGN, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, RESTARTED THE ENGINE, AND WAS ABLE TO RESUME DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. A TWENTY SEVEN POINT INSPECTION WAS PERFORMED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE UNTIL THE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,599.

WITH THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH IN THE AUTO POSITION THE LIGHT SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING A SLIGHT PANIC TO GET THEY SWITCH TO THE MANUAL POSITION

RECALL R09 DID NOT FIX ISSUE WITH CAR SHUTTING OFF AND IGNITION STICKING. CAR SHUTS OFF ON FREEWAY AND OFF-RAMPS REGULARLY. PROBLEM CONTINUED AND NOW TIPM FAILURE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT OCCASIONALLY HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED. IN ADDITION, WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WAITED A FEW MINUTES, AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT RESUMED DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TUTTLE-CLICK CHRYSLER DODGE (40 AUTO CENTER DR, IRVINE, CA 92618) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE RECALL REPAIR WAS COMPLETED AND THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT A SECOND RECALL WAS OPENED; HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V115000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 133,000.

COMPUTER FAILURE: BAD ALTERNATOR (FOR WHICH THERE IS A RECALL) MALFUNCTIONED, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, AND AT THE SAME TIME, DAMAGED THE COMPUTER, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO SHUT DOWN. WHILE DRIVING, MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS (SEAT BELT, OIL, ALTERNATOR, ETC.) WOULD FLASH ON AND OFF. I WAS TURNED INTO A PARKING LOT AND TURNED INTO A SPACE, BUT THE ENGINE DIED AND I COASTED TO A STOP. CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER THAT.

WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE, AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS EACH TIME THE PROBLEM OCCURRED, AND APPLYING THE BRAKES, THE VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF AND THE STEERING WHEEL WILL LOCK. REQUIRING THE VEHICLE TO BE RESTARTED EITHER ROLLING IN NEUTRAL OR FULLY STOPPED IN PARK.

THE FAILED TIPM IS DANGEROUS AND COULD LEAVE YOU STRANDED FROM ASTALLED ENGINE. THE FAILED ALTERNATOR MAY HAVE BEEN A BY PRODUCT OF THE FAULTY TIPM. THIS PART SHOULD BE PART OF A RECALL.

MY VEHICLE BEGAN HAVING THIS ISSUE IN 2015. MY VEHICLE HAS A LONG CRANK AND SOMETIMES DOES NOT TURN OVER. IT WILL ALSO TURN OVER, THEN SPUTTER OUT AFTER RUNNING FOR 20-30 SECONDS. IN 2015, I BEGAN TO HAVE THE ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE NOT TURNING ON/NOT TURNING OVER. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED DEALER AND THE TIPM MODULE WAS REPLACED. THE VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY HAD THE ISSUE TURNING OVER, BUT WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD THAT THE ISSUE COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. IN 2016, MY VEHICLE SHUT OFF ON ME WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. THE HAZARD LIGHTS WOULD NOT WORK, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT TURN ON, AND THE GEARS WOULD NOT CHANGE TO FACILITATE A TOW. UPON OPENING THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE, IT APPEARED AS THOUGH THERE WAS A MALFUNCTION WITH THE ALTERNATOR AND FUSES (OF WHICH I HAVE VIDEO). I HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER AND WAS CALLED BY A SERVICE ADVISOR THE NEXT DAY. I WAS TOLD THAT MY WIN MODULE HAD TO BE REPLACED, WHICH I PAID FOR. IN ADDITION, MY BATTERY HAD DIED, AND I PAID TO REPLACE THAT. I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP I HAD VIDEO OF THE ALTERNATOR AND FUSES MALFUNCTIONING AND THEY STATED THEY DID NOT NEED THE VIDEO AS THE COMPUTER DIAGNOSIS POINTED TO AN ISSUE WITH THE WIN MODULE. SEVERAL MONTHS LATER, I BEGAN TO HAVE THE ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE NOT TURNING OVER. I REQUESTED A TOW AND THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER SUGGESTED I USE THE ACTUAL KEY INSTEAD OF THE PUSH BUTTON IGNITION, WHICH I HAVE BEEN DOING. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN AGAIN IN OCTOBER, AS THE VEHICLE AGAIN BEGAN TO HAVE THE LONG CRANK ISSUE AND WOULD INTERMITTENTLY NOT START. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY ALTERNATOR, BUT A REPLACEMENT WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED MY ALTERNATOR, BUT INFORMED ME THAT IT STILL WOULD NOT BE THE IMPROVED/RECALL PART. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE BACK IN THREE (3) MORE TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND EVERY TIME, I AM TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE REQUIRED A SOFTWARE UPDATE.

VEHICLE STALLED TWICE IN THE PAST MONTH WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH. LOST POWER STEERING CAPABILITY WHICH CREATED A DANGEROUS SITUATION IN AN ATTEMPT TO PULL THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOULDER. SECOND INCIDENT HAPPENED YESTERDAY. VEHICLE DID RESTART AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS. VEHICLE RECALL R09 WAS ALLEGEDLY ADDRESSED BY ROUTE 46 DODGE IN NJ IN 2015.

T38 RECALL: I'VE TAKEN MY VEHICLE INTO PRESTIGE CHRYSLER DODGE, LAS VEGAS ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS CONCERNED ABOUT LOSS OF POWER AND STALLING WHILE TURNING AND HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM FOR THE T38 RECALL. YESTERDAY I WAS ALMOST REAR-ENDED BECAUSE MY VEHICLE LOST POWER DURING A TURN OFF THE INTERSTATE. THEY HAVE HOWEVER, CHARGED ME FOR OTHER ISSUES LIKE AN OIL PRESSURE SENSOR (SEE ATTACHED) THAT HAS NOT FIXED MY LOSS OF POWER. I CALLED FCA RECALL AND THEY HAVE SENT ME TO AN ALTERNATIVE DEALERSHIP FOR A REPLACEMENT ALTERNATOR. PRESTIGE CHRYSLER DODGE OF LAS VEGAS IS REFUSING TO FIX KNOWN SAFETY ISSUES AND ADVISED ME THAT THEY HAD TESTED MY ALTERNATOR AND KNEW IT WAS FAULTY, YET COULD NOT REPAIR IT WITHOUT THE RECALL PARTS. THEIR DEALERSHIP IS PLACING PEOPLE'S LIVES AT RISK BECAUSE THEY DO NOT WANT TO DO THE TEMPORARY FIX AND THEN HAVE TO COMPLETE THE RECALL AGAIN WHEN THE REPLACEMENT ALTERNATORS ARE ISSUED. THIS IS UNETHICAL, IRRESPONSIBLE, AND NEGLIGENT. THE RECALL WAS ISSUED IN JULY--THEY HAVE HAD MY DURANGO 3 TIMES, KNOWN ABOUT THE STALL AND REFUSED TO ASSIST ME. I ALSO HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AND ASKED TO HAVE THE ALTERNATOR REPLACED WITH THAT--THEY REFUSED AGAIN SAYING THE WARRANTY WOULDN'T TOUCH A KNOWN DEFECT. PLEASE TAKE ACTION BEFORE THIS DEALERSHIP PLACES ANOTHER FAMILY IN DANGER FOR REFUSING TO COMPLY WITH NHTSA SAFETY REGULATIONS.

LEAKING POWER STEERING FLUID IDENTIFIED DURING OIL CHANGE. ONLY 65000 MILE ON THE VEHICLE.

RECALL T36/NHTSA 17V-435 FCA STILL HAS STATUS AS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE AFTER ALMOST 6 MONTHS.

I WAS DRIVING MY DURANGO IN THE CITY GOING 30 MILES PER HOUR ON 10/05/17 AND MY BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON, I PULLED OVER TO CHECK THE BATTERY AND THE ALTERNATOR WAS SMOKING. I THANKFULLY PULLED OVER AT A AUTO PARTS STORE AND THEY WERE ABLE TO HELP ME GET MY BATTERY DISCONNECTED SO THAT THEY FIRE IN THE ALTERNATOR WOULD STOP. I CONTACTED DODGE AND THEY ORIGINALLY TOLD ME THAT MY ALTERNATOR WAS NOT RECALLED. I FOUND THIS WEBSITE AND ENTERED MY VIN NUMBER AND IT CAME UP WITH THE T36 RECALL WHICH IS THE ALTERNATOR.

BRAKE BOOSTER HAS A LEAK IN IT SOMEWHERE. WHEN THE VEHICLE FIRST STARTS UP, THERE IS NO BRAKING ASSIST, ONCE THE CAR RUNS FOR A FEW MINUTES THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY. IF THE CAR SITS FOR A WHILE, IT HAPPENS AGAIN ON STARTUP. I KNOW THERE WAS A RECALL IN A NUMBER OF 2012 DURANGOS FOR A FAULTY BRAKE BOOSTER AND THINK MAYBE IT SHOULD BE EXTENDED TO COVER THIS ONE AS WELL.

JUNE 2017, RIGHT HEADLIGHT WENT OUT, REPLACED THE BULB, HARD THEY HARNESS AND WIRES CHANGED AND IT STILL SHORTS OUT. HEADLIGHT COMES ON AND GOES OFF WHILE IT IS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION.

THERE'S THIS WEIRD LOOKING ALUMINUM TUBE ABOUT 7 FEET LONG THAT TWISTS AND TURNS UNDER THE VEHICLE THAT CARRIES THE FREON THAT SUPPLIES THE COLD AIR CONDITIONING IN MY TRUCK. SO EXACTLY WHERE THE TUBE GOES NEXT TO THE MUFFLER IT GOT CORRODED AND I HAD TO REPLACE IT WITH A NEW ONE. ALMOST $1K IN PARTS AND LABOR AND TRUCK ONLY HAD ABOUT 60,000 MILES ON IT AND I HAD ONLY USED THE AIR CONDITIONING SELDOMLY DURING 3 SUMMERS. THE NEW ALUMINUM TUBE THAT WAS BOUGHT HAD A THICKER PART RIGHT BY THE MUFFLER, MEANING ENGINEERS KNEW THE ORIGINAL PART WAS TOO THIN IN MY OPINION.

MY POWER STEERING STARTED TO GO OUT INTERMITTENTLY ABOUT A MONTH AGO. WE WERE SURE IF IT WAS A GLITCH SINCE THE CAR CAN SOMETIMES BE GLITCHY,LIKE THE RADIO FUNCTIONS NOT WORKING OR THE CAR CUTS OFF BUT IS SOMEHOW STILL RUNNING. ANYWAY, ON 18 AUG, I NOTICED THAT THE POWER STEERING WOULD GO OUT IF YOU DON'T PRESS THE BREAK PADDLE. AGAIN, IT DIDN'T START OUT THAT WAY, BUT PROCEEDED THE MOVE I DROVE. BY 26 AUG, IT WAS GOING OUT JUST ABOUT FROM THE TIME I STARTED THE CAR UNTIL I STOPPED FOR THE DAY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP ON28 AUG AND HAD THE PUMP REPLACED. I GOT MY CAR BACK ON 29 AUG. SO FAR, NO ISSUES. THE INCIDENTS TOOK PLACE MAINLY WHILE SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A TURN, PARKING. I NOTICED THAT IT A LITTLE WHEN I WAS DRIVING THAT THE WHEEL WOULD STIFFEN BUT IT WAS NOT TOO BAD SINCE I COULD JUST PRESS THE GAS PADDLE AND IT WOULD LOOSEN.

MY DODGE DURANGO STOPPED WORKING ONE WEEK AGO. AT THAT TIME I LOOKED ONLINE TO FIND THE ALTERNATOR RECALL BUT THAT THEY WOULD BE NOTIFYING PEOPLE AT A LATER DATE. FOR A WEEK THEY HAD MY CAR AND REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR KNOWING DODGE HAD BAD ALTERNATORS AND MADE ME PURCHASE A BATTERY. MY CAR AGAIN DIED THE SAME DAY AFTER MY PARTNER LEFT THE LOT. AFTER IT WAS AGAIN TOWED FOR THE SECOND TIME THEY FOUND THAT MY CAR WAS NOW UNDER THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH I HAD ALREADY TOLD THEM THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH MY CAR. THE WEBSITE STATES THERE IS NO SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM AND NOW I AM STUCK WITH A BROKEN CAR WITH MY CAR VALUE DROPPING SIGNIFICANTLY. DODGE NEEDS TO REFUND ME THE MONEY I HAVE ALREADY SPENT PLUS MILEAGE AND GAS COMMUNITING TO AND FROM VIERA TO TITUSVILLE FLORIDA DRIVING MY PARTNER TO WORK AND PICKING MY SON UP FROM SCHOOL AND GOING BACK AND FORTH AND EMOTIONAL DISTRESS. THIS COMPANY SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES. I AM NOW STUCK WITH A RENTAL CAR AND LEFT IN THE DARK AS TO WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MY CAR. IN A SEPARATE INCIDENT I PAID OUT ALMOST 1,000 TO GO OUT TO MY CAR AT THE DEALERSHIP TO FIND IT DID NOT WORK. AT THAT TIME THE MAN WALKED INSIDE AND CAME BACK OUT WITH A PIECE FOR THE FUEL RELAY RECALL. I AGAIN WANT TO KNOW WHY THIS DODGE DEALERSHIP CONTINUES TO CHARGE ME AND PLAY ME FOR A FOOL. DODGE SHOULD BE EMBARRASSED. HOW DOES SOMEONE NOW CHECK FOR RECALLS BEFORE OPERATING ON A VEHICLE?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND WHEN THE DRIVER ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE, IT FAILED TO START WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL PUMP RELAY FAILED AND NEEDED TO REPLACED.

THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. TEST RAN. DETECTOR-EVAPORATIVE SYSTEM ISSUE. DETECTOR VALVE FAULTY. LEAK COMING FROM GAS CAP AND ESIM CORRECTION. REPLACED ESIM SEAL AND GAS CAP. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR SIMILAR ISSUE.

THE CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. WHETHER I AM DRIVING STRAIGHT OR MAKING A TURN, THE CAR HAS SHUT OFF NUMEROUS TIMES. DODGE CLAIMED THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE SPARK PLUGS AND SENSOR SO I HAD THAT FIXED. THE FOLLOWING DAY THE CAR SHUT OFF. THEY HAVE YET TO FIX THE STALLING ISSUE EVEN AFTER RECEIVING DIAGNOSTIC CODES. IT HAS SHUT OFF ON MAIN STREETS, SIDE STREETS AND HIGHWAYS. I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 2016 AND THE PROBLEM AND I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM EVER SINCE. *TR

I WAS DRIVING THE DURANGO AND THE AIR WENT OFF, BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON, OTHER WARNINGS SENSORS AND BELLS WENT OFF. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT BACK HOME AND REPLACE BATTERY. INSTALLED THE NEW BATTERY AND DROVE AROUND BLOCK. THE ALTERNATOR STARTED SMOKING BAD AND YOU COULD SMELL THE BURNING WIRES. TOWED IT TO THE SHOP, THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY AGAIN AND ALTERNATOR AND STILL HAVE ISSUES. THEY HAVE ELECTRICAL BEING CHECKED OUT. SAY IT MAY HAVE ISSUES WITH THE COMPUTER. WE ARE OVER $1200 SO FAR AND CLIMBING.

LIKE SO MANY OTHERS, WAS DRIVING WHEN BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON WITH AN ELECTRICAL SMELL. CONTINUED DRIVING TO A MIDAS WHEN ALL LIGHTS AND BELLS WERE GOING OFF. EVENTUALLY TRIED TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN AND STEERING WAS GONE AND I WAS LUCKILY ABLE TO COAST INTO MIDAS. THEY DIAGNOSED AS A FAILED ALTERNATOR. MY MECHANIC TOWED THE CAR TO HIS SHOP AND REPLACED ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY BUT THAT WAS NOT THE SOLUTION. IT ENDED UP BEING THE PCM. EXPENSIVE FIX THAT MAY PUSH ME TOWARDS PURCHASING A DIFFERENT VEHICLE INSTEAD.

WITHOUT WARNING MY ALTERNATOR HAS FAILED ON MY DURANGO, I WENT TO START IT UP FOR WORK AND I GOT ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I LOOKED UP RECALLS, BECAUSE IT FRIED MY BATTERY AS WELL, AND I SEE A RECALL ON SOME MODELS WITH THE 160 AMP ALTERNATOR, BUT NOT MINE BECAUSE IT IS 180 AMP. THIS MATTER NEEDS TO BE FURTHER INVESTIGATED, BECAUSE I HAVE HAD AN ALTERNATOR GO OUT BEFORE ON OTHER VEHICLES, BUT THERE ARE WARNING SIGNS, AND THERE WERE NONE WHICH WOULD LEAD ME TO BELIEVE THERE IS A FAULTY DEVICE OR HOOK UP. TH8S IS COSTING ME ALMOST $1000, WHICH AS A MILITARY SPOUSE WITH 2 CHILDREN AND A DEPLOYED HUSBAND WE DO NOT HAVE FOR SOME ERRONEOUS PART.

ALTERNATOR SHORT, SERIOUS SUDDEN LOSS OF ALL ELECTRICAL AND ENGINE CONTROL. SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD HAVE POTENTIALLY CAUSED FATAL CRASH.

FAILED ALTERNATOR ALTERNATOR FAILED AND THE CAR STALLED AND WENT DEAD ON A ROAD. COULD NOT RESTART THE CAR AND WAS BLOCKING TRAFFIC. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE CONDITION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE BATTERY LIGHT SUDDENLY ILLUMINATED AND AN ELECTRICAL BURNING ODOR WAS PRESENT INSIDE THE CABIN.

THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

DRIVING LOCALLY AND ALL OF A SUDDEN A WHIZZING SOUND FROM UNDER HOOD. I PULLED OVER NOISE STOPPED. CONTINUED DRIVING ON 40MPH ROAD AND BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON, RPM INDICATOR ERRATIC. NOT TOO FAR FROM HOME AN ELECTRICAL FIRE SMELL COMING FROM UNDER HOOD. MADE IT HOME SAFELY. CALLED DODGE DEALERSHIP TO CHECK ABOUT RECALL, SPECIFICALLY THE 2015 ALTERNATOR RECALL TO SEE IF SOMEHOW MY VEHICLE WAS MISSED ON THAT RECALL. VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED SO TOOK TO MECHANIC. HE HAS HAD AN EXTREMELY TIME CONSUMING AND COSTLY FEW DAYS TRYING TO REPAIR. SEEMED JUST LIKE THE ALTERNATOR NEEDED REPLACING BUT THEN HE SAID BATTERY WAS DEAD. REPLACED WITH NEW BATTERY AND THAT WAS KILLED. HE CHARGED BATTERIES SEPARATELY AND THEY WERE FINE, SOON AS THEY WERE PUT INTO CAR THEY WERE QUICKLY DRAINED. HE SUSPECTED COMPUTER SYSTEM WAS SHOT. CALLED IN SPECIALIST TO CONFIRM. MEANWHILE I SEE THERE IS AN UPCOMING RECALL T36 FOR THIS EXACT SUDDEN ALTERNATOR FAILURE ISSUE (WHICH MINE SHOULD FALL UNDER) BUT NOTICES NOT GOING OUT UNTIL 8/24/17. ABSOLUTELY CRAZY!!! I'VE READ THE RECENT COMPLAINTS AND SOME PEOPLE WERE DRIVING WHEN THEIR WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING AND CAR SHUT DOWN. I'M FORTUNATE ENOUGH THAT I WASN'T DRIVING WHILE MY COMPUTER SYSTEM FAILED AND ALSO LUCKY THAT I WAS CLOSE TO HOME WHEN SMELL STARTED, BECAUSE ACCORDING TO THE RECALL THESE ALTERNATORS CAN START FIRES. HOW CAN THEY ANNOUNCE THIS RECALL MID JULY BUT NOT NOTIFY AFFECTED CONSUMERS FOR 7 WEEKS? RIGHT NOW MY VIN IS STILL NOT LISTED UNDER ANY RECALL. IT MOST BETTER BE OR IT WILL BE HANDLED IN A LEGAL MANNER. SO FAR I HAVEN'T HAD MY PRIMARY VEHICLE FOR 3 DAYS, AND IS GOING TO BE AT LEAST 2-3 MORE. NOT TO MENTION THE THOUSANDS THAT I HAVE TO COME UP WITH FOR PARTS, HOURS WORTH OF LABOR, AND SPECIALIST TO REPROGRAM NEW COMPUTER.

LATER, THE CHECK ENGINE, TRACTION CONTROL, AND ABS WARNING INDICATORS ALSO ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE AIR CONDITION AND RADIO FAILED TO FUNCTION, AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FUNCTIONED SLOWLY. WHILE EXITING THE HIGHWAY, THE POWER STEERING SEIZED AND MADE IT DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY EXCESSIVE FORCE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. ALSO, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT PLACED THE GEAR SHIFTER INTO PARK, BUT IT FAILED TO GO INTO NEUTRAL. THE CONTACT CALLED THE POLICE AND TWO OFFICERS ASSISTED IN PUSHING THE VEHICLE OFF THE RAMP INTO A PARKING LOT. THE CONTACT WAITED FOR HOURS THEN HAD THE VEHICLE JUMPSTARTED; HOWEVER, IT FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE PARKING LOT OF SAM'S CLUB (1025 E BLACK HORSE PIKE, PLEASANTVILLE, NJ 08232). TWO DAYS LATER, THE CONTACT CALLED THE MOTOR WORLD DEALER LOCATED IN WILKES BARRE, PA 18702 AND WAS INFORMED THAT FIAT CHRYSLER WAS INITIATING A RECALL ON FAULTY ALTERNATORS. THE DEALER DID NOT KNOW IF THE VIN WAS INCLUDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL AND, IF THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE REPAIRED, THEY WOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR, EVEN IF THE VIN WERE AFFECTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED AT THE TUTTLE CLICK TOFTIN CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM DEALER FOR TAKING A LONG TIME TO CRANK. AFTER UNKNOWN REPAIRS WERE PERFORMED, THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. ON ONE OCCASION, WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED FREQUENTLY AND, IN ORDER TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, THE GEAR SHIFTER HAD TO BE PLACED IN NEUTRAL OR PARK. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND IT BEGAN TO PULL TO THE RIGHT, VEERED OFF THE ROAD, AND CRASHED INTO A BRIDGE WALL. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE SHIELD OVER THE WHEEL WELL DETACHED, AND THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE, SPOILER, AND RIM WERE DAMAGED DUE TO THE CRASH. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE TUTTLE CLICK TOFTIN CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM DEALER, BUT IT WAS NOT REPAIRED DUE TO THE REPAIRS BEING AT THE CONTACT'S EXPENSE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND AUTHORIZED THE DEALER TO PROVIDE A SECOND REPAIR; HOWEVER, IT WAS NOT VERIFIED IF THE REPAIR WOULD BE FREE OF CHARGE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED A SECOND TIME AS OF YET. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 124,000.

HUSBAND THOUGHT THE LIGHTS SEEMED DIM WHEN WE WERE COMING HOME TONIGHT THEN THE BATTERY LIGHT WENT ON. ADVANCE AUTO WAS ABLE TO RUN THE DIAGNOSTIC AND SAID MY BATTERY SHOULD HAVE 700 COLD CRANKING AMPS BUT WAS REGISTERING 373 (OR SOMEWHERE CLOSE TO THAT) BUT IT WASN'T SHOWING ANYTHING FOR THE ALTERNATOR AFTER TWO TESTS. HUSBAND AND I HAD NOTICED A FUNNY SMELL IN THE ENGINE AFTER WE HAD GOTTEN HOME. WELL, WHEN I LEFT ADVANCE AUTO, THERE WAS A FUNNY BUZZING SOUND, MY INDICATOR WAS SAYING MY SEATBELT WAS UNBUCKLED WHEN IT WASN'T, MY TRACTION CONTROL, ABS BREAK LIGHT, AIRBAG LIGHT AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE STARTED COMING ON. THE BUZZING SOUND GOT WORSE SO I PULLED OVER TO A DAYCARE PARKING LOT FROM A WELL TRAVELED ROAD AND JUST AS I DID, THE CAR SHUT OFF AND SEEMED TO LOCK UP. EVERYTHING THAT SHOULD HAVE LIT UP WAS DARK. NO LIGHTS WHATSOEVER INSIDE OR OUT, AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS WON'T WORK, ETC. I CAN'T GET THE KEY OUT, I COULDN'T PUT IT IN NEUTRAL, BRAKE PETAL WOULDN'T GO DOWN...NOTHING. TOW TRUCK WAS CALLED TO TAKE MY CAR HOME UNTIL I COULD CONTACT REPAIR SHOP.

SUDDEN ELECTRICAL FAILURE WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. ALTERNATOR FAILED AT 62,000 MILES.

CHECK BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON, BATTERY LOST CHARGE, REPLACED BATTERY AND IT LOST CHARGE AGAIN BEFORE ABLE TO TEST ALTERNATOR. ALTERNATOR WAS RED HOT. WILL NEED NEW BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR. WAS A RECALL IN 2014 FOR ALTERNATOR AS WELL (APPEARS THAT RECALL WAS ALREADY DONE ON THIS CAR). CAR DIED AT INTERSECTION WAITING TO TURN.

THE BATTERY LIGHT INDICATOR ILLUMINATED IN THE DRIVER'S INFORMATION PANEL. WITHIN ANOTHER MINUTE THE DRIVERS SEAT BELT WARNING BEGAN CHIMING & FLASHING IN THE DISPLAY ALSO, EVEN THOUGH THE DRIVER'S SEATBELT WAS BUCKLED. AT THIS TIME ALL OF THE INDICATORS IN THE DRIVER'S INFORMATION PANEL BEGAN SPORADICALLY FLASHING. WITHIN THE NEXT FEW MINUTES, THE POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING & THE CAR SHUT COMPLETELY DOWN. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A MECHANICS SHOP. THERE, THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY & ALTERNATOR. UPON REPLACING THE PARTS, THE MECHANIC LISTED "MORE ISSUES EXIST, VEHICLE STILL DOES NOT STAY RUNNING. POSSIBLE ISSUE WITH ECM AND/OR CAC". THE MECHANIC ALSO POINTED OUT TO ME SAFETY RECALL P60/NHTSA WHICH WAS FOR A 2012 DODGE DURANGO (SAME MODEL YEAR AS MINE). WHEN I CONTACTED THE DODGE DEALER ABOUT THIS RECALL, HE INSTRUCTED ME THAT IT WAS ONLY FOR THE 160 AMP ALTERNATOR. MINE CONTAINED THE 180 AMP ALTERNATOR & WAS BUILT ABOUT A MONTH BEFORE THE RECALLED VEHICLES. HOWEVER, BOTH THE 160 AMP & THE 180 AMP ALTERNATOR SEEM TO SUFFER FROM THE SAME PROBLEMS. WITH ONLY A SHORT CHECK OF THE INTERNET, I WAS ABLE TO IDENTIFY OVER 100 CASES OF 180 AMP DODGE DURANGO SUDDENLY LOSING POWER WHILE BEING DRIVEN & CAUSING CATASTROPHIC ELECTRICAL FAILURE; SOME TRAVELING AS FAST AS 40-50 MPH. LUCKY FOR ME, I WAS ONLY GOING 10-15 MPH WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS OF BLOOMINGTON, ILLINOIS. ALTHOUGH IT WAS AROUND A CURVE THE ISSUE BEGAN WHILE I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A 6 LANE BYPASS DRIVING BETWEEN 40-45 MPH. I CAN NOT BEGIN TO EXPLAIN HOW UNBELIEVABLY FRUSTRATING IT IS FOR THE AUTOMAKER TO DENY THEIR CULPABILITY ON AN ISSUE THAT IS PUTTING THOUSANDS OF FAMILIES IN GRAVE DANGER & EQUALLY AS DISAPPOINTING TO FORCE THEIR OWN CUSTOMERS TO FOOT THE BILL FOR THEIR OWN CARELESS MISTAKE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE STALLED IMMEDIATELY AFTER STARTING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD START UP AFTER FIVE MINUTES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO SEVERAL INDEPENDENT MECHANICS TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT ADDY'S HARBOR DODGE INC, LOCATED AT 4849 HIGHWAY 501, MYRTLE BEACH SC, 25979, DIAGNOSED THAT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND BRAKE PEDAL WERE BEING SIMULTANEOUSLY DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED BY THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC THAT THE CX5 MODULE IN THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY BEING REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT DID NOT OFFER ASSISTANCE WITH HAVING THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 17,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, EVERY INDICATOR ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ILLUMINATED, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ACTIVATED INDEPENDENTLY, THE POWER STEERING FAILED, AND THE VEHICLE STALLED AND LOST ALL POWER. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO CROSSROADS CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (4510 WHITEHILL BLVD, PRINCE GEORGE, VA 23875) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALTERNATOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE CONTACT WOULD NEED TO PAY OUT OF POCKET BECAUSE THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V634000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,000.

AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET I APPROACHED A STOP LIGHT AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. ONCE THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I PROCEEDED TO GO.I NOTICED THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO TAKE OFF AND LOOKED DOWN AND REALIZED THE VEHICLE WAS IN 4TH GEAR. THIS IS THE 3RD TIME I HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AND EACH TIME I HAVE HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO GET MY VEHICLE FIXED. I HAVE REPLACED THE SHIFT SOLENOID PACK 3 TIMES AND REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION ONCE. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT BECAUSE I LAST HAD THIS SERVICE DONE 2 WEEKS AGO THEY WILL COVER THE PARTS BUT I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE LABOR.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A RESIDENTIAL STREET THE VEHICLE JUMPED INTO 4TH GEAR. I WAS GOING ABOUT 10 MPH BECAUSE I WAS APPROACHING A STOP SIGN. AFTER I STOPPED I PROCEEDED TO TAKE OFF AND THE VEHICLE HESITATED. ONCE IT STARTED TO MOVE I NOTICED THE VEHICLE JERKED A LITTLE AND MOVED REALLY SLOW BUT THE RPM WAS REALLY HIGH. I PARKED THE VEHICLE AND HAD IT TOWED TO A DODGE SHOP NEAR MY HOUSE. THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND TOLD ME THEY HAD TO CHANGE THE SHIFT SOLENOID PACK IN THE TRANSMISSION. I AGREED TO THE REPAIR AND PAID $639.65 FOR THE REPAIR TO BE DONE. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME I HAVE HAD THIS REPAIR DONE WITHIN A YEAR.

DRIVING 50MPH WITH MY FAMILY WHEN THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AND I LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. LUCKILY WE WERE ABLE TO STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

AS VEHICLE WAS BEING PARKED IN DRIVE WAY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. AS DRIVER WALKED PAST VEHICLE ON THE WAY IN HOUSE HE SMELLED SOMETHING SO POPPED HOOD AND NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM WHAT APPEARS TO BE ALTERNATOR AND NOTICED BURN MARKS. POWER SEEMED TO BE GONE AS REMOTE WOULD NOT WORK TO LOCK DOORS. ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE CAME AND WHEN HE CONNECTED A LITTLE BATTERY PACK TYPE THING TO BATTERY TO TRY AND CHARGE THERE WERE SPARKS. WHEN HE ATTACHED JUMPER CABLES, THEY GOT FRIED TO THE POINT THE HANDLE WAS SEPARATED FROM THE CABLE AND JUST SHORT OF CATCHING FIRE BUT THE OTHER CAR WAS TURNED OFF TO AVOID THE FIRE. TRUCK WAS TOWED TO SHOP. THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT GET CAR TO EVEN JUMP OR START USING BATTERY PACK AND WHEN THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY ALL TOGETHER WHATEVER THE ISSUE IS FRIED THAT BATTERY. AGAIN WAS ABLE TO SMELL SOMETHING. WAS ADVISED IT APPEARS TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE WIRING. ON 5/10 CAR WAS TAKEN TO DODGE DEALER FOR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND WAS TOLD FUEL PUMP WAS ISSUE SINCE RELAY HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY REPLACED AS PART OF RECALL BUT WHEN THEY TOOK RELAY OFF THEY FOUND BURN MARKS ON IT AS WELL AND REPLACED IT.

WHILE DRIVING, THE ALTERNATOR FAILED CAUSING A NEAR CRASH WITH MYSELF, MY DAUGHTER, AND TWO GRANDDAUGHTERS IN THE VEHICLE. I NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT HAVE NEVER HEARD OF AN FAILED ALTERNATOR ACTUALLY SHUTTING DOWN A CAR WHILE DRIVING! WITH A LITTLE RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THERE IS, IN FACT, A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE, ON THIS YEAR VEHICLE, AND YET SOMEHOW MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL?? IT'S A $1700 REPAIR. . BESIDES THE EXPENSE, IT'S A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. MY ALTERNATOR FAILED, EXACTLY AS WARNED IN THE RECALL -- THE REPAIR SHOULD NOT BE AT MY EXPENSE. THIS IS NOT OK!

I CAME TO A STOP AT A STOP LIGHT TO TURN RIGHT AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO RECORD IT BECAUSE THERE WERE CARS COMING DOWN THE EXIT BEHIND ME. I IMMEDIATELY KEPT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND PLACED THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTARTED IT. THE MILEAGE IS AT 93,322. THE FLIGHT RECORDER THE DEALERSHIP PLACED ON THE VEHICLE DIDN'T WORK SO THERE WAS NOTHING TO CAPTURE.

OUR DODGE DURANGO STALLED AS I WAS TURNING LEFT. WHEN I WENT TO PUSH THE TRIGGER BOX, IT DID NOT WORK AND WILL NOT COME BACK ON. I RESTARTED THE CAR AND WAITED, BUT THE TRIGGER BOX NO LONGER WORKS. THIS IS OF COURSE STRANGE BECAUSE ONCE AGAIN, NOTHING CAN BE RECORDED. THE KEY FOB BATTERY IS BRAND NEW AND THE PUSH BUTTON WAS IN USE. I HAVE A VIDEO FOR DOCUMENTATION. THE MILEAGE IS 94,017. WE HAVE RECORDED VIA TRIGGER BOX DAILY JERKS WITH THE DURANGO AND NOW THE MAJOR ISSUE WE NEEDED DOCUMENTATION OF CAN'T BE CAPTURED BECAUSE THE DEVICE NO LONGER OPERATES.

AS I TURNED RIGHT, THE VEHICLE ONCE AGAIN STALLED. THE ENGINE TURNED OFF, BUT ALL THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS CONTINUED TO WORK. I PLACED MY FOOT ON THE GAS TO DEMONSTRATE THAT IT WOULD NOT MOVE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STILL IN DRIVE. THEN I DID THE SAME WITH THE BREAK TO DEMONSTRATE THAT IT WOULDN'T RESPOND. I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND THE VEHICLE RESTARTED. MY CHILDREN WERE IN THE VEHICLE AND MY OLDEST SON RECORDED UNTIL WE REACHED THE INTENDED STOPPING POINT. THE MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE WAS 94,624. THE VEHICLE HAD A TRIGGER BOX / FLIGHT RECORDER, BUT IT QUIT FUNCTIONING THE PREVIOUS WEEK WHEN THE CAR ALSO STOPPED LAST WEEK.

WE HAD A RECALL FIXED ON THE FUEL PUMP RELAY AND SINCE THEN THE VEHICLE STALLS WHILE DRIVING.DIDN'T DO THAT BEFORE THE WORK

CAR COMPLETE SHUTDOWN WITHOUT WARNING. SMOKE WAS COMING OUT. ALTERNATOR IS NOT WORKING AND DRAIN BATTERY LIFE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE EXITING THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND VARIOUS WARNING INDICATORS FLICKERED. THE VEHICLE WAS COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND THEN TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE CONTACT REPLACED THE BATTERY AND DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALTERNATOR ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V879000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, INTERIOR LIGHTING). THE CONTACT NOTIFIED THE MANUFACTURER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE BATTERY WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESTART AND WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STARTER AND PCM BOX FAILED. AN UNKNOWN WIRE RELATED TO THE PCM BOX BURNED AND THE STARTER AND PCM BOX NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,377.

MY BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. WITHIN MINUTES ALL THE OTHER LIGHTS ON MY DASHBOARD CAME ON, MY AIR STARTING BLOWING HOT AND THEN IT STARTED TO STALL. LUCKILY I WAS ON A SMALL ROAD AND WAS ABLE TO COAST OFF ONTO THE GRASS. THE CAR WAS DEAD AND SMOKE WAS POURING FROM THE ALTERNATOR. I WENT AND BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR. WITHIN IN 2 MINUTES OF INSTALLING BOTH, MY CAR DID THE SAME EXACT THING. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR. I EXPLAINED THAT I HAD ALREADY REPLACED IT AND THINK IT COULD BE MORE SEVERE. THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR WITH LABOR I'M LOOKING AT $1200. THAT'S NOT INCLUDING IF THAT DOESN'T FIX THE ISSUE. THEY SAIS IT COULD HAVE FRIED MY (PCM) POWER CONTROL MODULE WHICH COULD COST ME AT LEAST $1000 MORE PLUS LABOR. HOW IS IT THEY AREN'T RECALLING THE 2012 DURANGO WITH 180 AMP ALTERNATOR BUT ALL THE OTHERS? THIS CAR IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD, I SHOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR GOING ON 3 TIMES NOW. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY SON IN THIS CAR ANYMORE. I'VE SEEN ENOUGH COMPLAINTS SAYING THIS CAUSED ACCIDENTS SINCE THE CAR JUST DIES WHILE DRIVING.

MY DURANGO DIED WHILE DRIVING. I HAD JUST HAD THE BATTERY TESTED AND WAS TOLD IT WAS PROBABLY THE ALTERNATOR. I DID NOT MAKE IT HOME 2 MILES AWAY. IT WAS TOWED TO A FIRESTONE WHO REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY TO DISCOVER THE PCM WAS RUINED. THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR A 2012 DODGE DURANGO BUT IT WAS FOR THE 160 AMP ALTERNATOR AND NOT FOR HTE 180 AMP ALTERNATOR. THEY SAID THE RECALL NUMBER WAS P60 AND EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED TO MY DURANGO MATCHES THE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF THE RECALL. MY DURANGO WAS LATER TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO REPLACED THE BATTERY, ALTERNATOR AND PCM.

UPON ARRIVING HOME, A STRONG ODOR OF ELECTRICAL BURNING WAS PRESENT COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE ELECTRICAL LIGHT CAME ON AND SMOKE WAS VISIBLE COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE CAR WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE AND WAS IMMEDIATELY TURNED OFF. SIMILAR TO RECALL P60; HOWEVER OUR CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL BECAUSE OF A DIFFERENT ALTERNATOR AND SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT ENGINE TYPE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG INDICATOR ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER ADVISED THE CONTACT TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE DIAGNOSED AND THE MANUFACTURER WOULD POSSIBLY ASSIST WITH THE COST. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,044.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V634000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000.

THE VEHICLE DOES NOT START WHEN YOU PRESS THE KEYLESS IGNITION SWITCH. THIS HAPPENED LAST NIGHT IN A PARKING LOT, THIS MORNING IN MY GARAGE, AND TWICE TODAY IN PARKING LOTS. IT ALSO HAS HAPPENED INTERMITTENTLY OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS, BUT I DIDN'T THINK ANYTHING ABOUT IT UNTIL IT HAPPENED FOUR TIMES IN A ROW. I HAVE HAD TO PRESS THE SWITCH SEVERAL TIMES TO GET THE VEHICLE TO START AND REMOVE THE KEY FOB FROM MY PURSE. THIS WAS NOT THE CASE PREVIOUSLY. THE BATTERY IN THE FOB IS FINE, AS THE REMOTE START, REMOTE LIFT GATE AND REMOTE LOCK/UNLOCK ALL WORK. LAST NIGHT THE VEHICLE DID NOT WANT TO UNLOCK THE DOOR USING THE KEYLESS METHOD AND I HAD TO PRESS THE REMOTE UNLOCK BUTTON ON THE KEY FOB. ALSO THE EASY EXIT SEAT DOES NOT MOVE WHEN YOU TURN OFF THE VEHICLE. THIS FUNCTION HAS NOT BEEN WORKING FOR AWHILE, EVEN THOUGH IT IS SET TO MOVE. I FEEL THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITHIN THE KEYLESS IGNITION MODULE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V879000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, INTERIOR LIGHTING); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE.

BREAK BOOSTER FAILURE WITH SAME PROBLEM AS THE RECALL BUT MY VEHICLE WASNT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL

MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO HAD A BREAK BOOSTER FALILURE DUE TO CORROSION CAUSING BREAKS NOT TO WORK PROPERLY THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2011 THRU 2014 BUT THE DEALER SAYS MY VIN ISNT IN THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH ITS THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE RECALL

MY DODGE DURANDO 2012 HAVE TO MANY PROBLEMS MY CAR STOP WITHN IS RUNNING SEVERAL TIMES A TAKE TO DEALER THE CHANGE THE FUEL PUMP AND THE NEX DAY HAVE ENEGINE LIGTH TAKE BACK TO DEALER NOW THE SAID IS CATALYST , AND ARENT BUT MY CAR 2012 I BELIEVE IS NOT TO OLD TO HAVE TO MANY PROBLEMS I BELIEVE IT'S ALL FACTORY DEFAULT.

THE VEHICLE STALLS WHILE DRIVING (VERY INTERMITTENTLY). DOES NOT LOG ANY ENGINE CODES AND MAINLY HAPPENS ON DECELERATION. BUT HAS HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHEN EXITING THE FREEWAY AND ALSO AT LOW SPEEDS WHEN COMING TO A STOP SIGN. WHEN THE ENGINE STALLS YOU LOOSE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES BUT ALL OF THE ELECTRONICS KEEP WORKING RADIO, LIGHTS, ETC... I HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER CARE OPENED A CASE, WHICH THEY ASSISTED IN SCHEDULING AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE VEHICLE AT THE LOCAL DODGE DEALER. THE CASE WAS CLOSED BY CHRYSLER SINCE THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. WE BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE WITH 50,000 MILES ON IT AND IT NOW HAS 76,000 AND HAS STALLED ON US SEVERAL TIMES I WOULD SAY (12) OVER THE 26,000 MILES WE HAVE POUT ON IT. IF YOU GOOGLE THIS COMPLAINT/PROBLEM WITH THE 2011/2012 DURANGO IT IS WIDELY KNOWN AND A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE TO BE IGNORING, SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND VARIOUS INDICATORS FLICKERED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP.

REPEATED ELECTRICAL FAILURES AT START UP. SEPT 8 2014- ELECTRICAL FAILURE AT START UP: ENGINE LIGHT ON, STABILIZATION LIGHT ON, TURN SIGNAL NON-OPERATIONAL, UNABLE TO ACCESS THE MILAGE/TEMPERATURE MENU/COMPUTER, WINDSHIELD WIPER ACTIVE EVEN THOUGH THE SWITCH WAS IN THE OFF POSITION. RESULT: ONE WEEK IN THE SHOP AND THE STEERING CONTROL MODULE WAS REPLACED. - DEC 23- LEFT TAIL LIGHT BURNT OUT AND WAS REPLACED -JAN 15 2015- SECOND ELECTRICAL FAILURE AT START UP: ENGINE LIGHT ON, STABILIZATION LIGHT ON, TURN SIGNAL NON-OPERATIONAL, UNABLE TO ACCESS THE MILAGE/TEMPERATURE MENU/COMPUTER, WINDSHIELD WIPER ACTIVE EVEN THOUGH THE SWITCH WAS IN THE OFF POSITION. RESULT: ONE WEEK IN THE SHOP AND THE STEERING CONTROL MODULE WAS REPLACED. APRIL 1 2015- THIRD ELECTRICAL FAILURE AT START UP: ENGINE LIGHT ON, STABILIZATION LIGHT ON, TURN SIGNAL NON-OPERATIONAL, UNABLE TO ACCESS THE MILAGE/TEMPERATURE MENU/COMPUTER, WINDSHIELD WIPER ACTIVE EVEN THOUGH THE SWITCH WAS IN THE OFF POSITION. THE DEALER KEPT THE CAR FOR A WEEK AND CLAIMED THERE WAS "NOTHING WRONG" WITH THE CAR. THEN I CALLED CORPORATE AND WAS SENT OVER TO THE RESOLUTION TEAM. THEY ARRANGED FOR ME TO DROP OFF THE CAR FOR TESTING ON APRIL 14. I PICKED UP THE CAR ON MAY 15- THEY CLAIM THERE WERE NO FIXES WERE MADE AND THAT THEY "COULDN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM". FEB 3 2017- FOURTH ELECTRICAL FAILURE AT START UP: ENGINE LIGHT ON, STABILIZATION LIGHT ON, TURN SIGNAL NON-OPERATIONAL, UNABLE TO ACCESS THE MILAGE/TEMPERATURE MENU/COMPUTER, WINDSHIELD WIPER ACTIVE EVEN THOUGH THE SWITCH WAS IN THE OFF POSITION. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS A BLOWN FUSE BUT THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THIS SHORT TO HAPPEN REPEATEDLY.

I WAS IN LINE TO TURN LEFT UNDER THE UNDERPASS. WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. THE WHEEL LOCKED UP AS I TRIED TO MOVE FORWARD. I HAD TO TURN ON MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND SIGNAL OTHER TO GO AROUND ON THE RIGHT BECAUSE NO ONE COULD PASS ME ON THE LEFT. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND RESTARTED IT. THERE WAS NO DASHBOARD LIGHT TO INDICATE THAT ANYTHING WAS WRONG. MY SON WAS ABLE TO RECORD AND SHOW THAT THE VEHICLE WAS STILL IN DRIVE AND NOT MOVING. I CONTACTED THE AREA MANAGER TO ASK IF THIS KNOWN, UNSAFE VEHICLE COULD BE BOUGHT BACK AT THE HIGHEST NADA VALUE. HIS RESPONSE WAS, 'I'M NOT OFFERING A REPURCHASE.' HE SHARED THAT HE WOULD GET ANOTHER TECHNICIAN PERSONALLY INVOLVED. WE JUST RECEIVED THE CAR FROM THE SHOP ON WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 25, 2017 AFTER THE ENTIRE TIPM WAS REPLACED AND IT STOPPED AGAIN! *TR

I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF TURNING LEFT AT AN INTERSECTION. AS I TURNED THE WHEEL LOCKED UP AND THE CAR SLOWED DOWN AND EVENTUALLY STOPPED. I HAD TO VEER TO THE RIGHT AS MUCH AS I COULD. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND WHEN I STARTED IT AGAIN, IT SHOOK. I PROCEEDED TO DRIVE HOME. DUE TO IT BEING NIGHT AND WHERE I WAS POSITIONED, I COULDN'T RECORD THE ISSUE, BUT I DID DOCUMENT THE MILEAGE.

AROUND 7:20 AM I HAD JUST EXITED A RAMP TO GO BENEATH THE UNDERPASS TO TURN LEFT. THE MILEAGE CHANGE WAS 60 MPH TO 35 MPH. BEFORE THE CAR COULD COME TO A COMPLETE STOP APPLIED BY BRAKES, IT STALLED. THERE WERE OTHER VEHICLES BEHIND US WHO HAD TO GO AROUND. MY CHILDREN WERE WITH ME AND ONE RECORDED TO SHOW THAT THE VEHICLE WAS STILL IN DRIVE AND THAT THE BRAKE AND THE GAS WOULD NOT RECEIVE A RESPONSE FROM THE CAR. THIS IS THE THIRD DAY IN A ROW THAT VEHICLE HAS STALLED SINCE WE RECEIVED IN BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP.

MY 10 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WENT TO PUT ON HER SEAT BELT (2ND ROW PASSENGERS SIDE) I WAS IN PARK CAR TURNED OFF. THE SEAT BELT FELL FROM THE WALL IN WHICH IT WAS CONNECTED. ALL DAMAGE SEEN WAS LOCATED WITHIN THE WALL. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATING OF ALL OTHER SEAT BELTS I FOUND THE 3RD ROW PASSENGERS SIDE WAS ALSO DAMAGED. I CAN COUNT ON 1 HAND HOW MANY TIMES SOMEONE HAS SAT IN THE 3RD ROW. I TOOK MY CAR DOWN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND I WAS TOLD THIS WAS DUE TO "NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR" SINCE I NO LONGER HAVE A SERVICE WARRANTY THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE BELTS. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER DIRECTLY (REF #30773827 AND EMAIL CASE# 3424728) AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE THE BELTS BECAUSE IT WAS CAUSED BY AN "OUTSIDE INFLUENCE AND NOT MANUFACTURE DEFECT." NOT ONLY AM I NOW OUT 2 SEAT BELTS, BUT I AM WORRIED MY FAMILY AND I ARE NO LONGER SAFE IN THIS CAR. ATTACHED ARE PICTURES AND EMAILS. THE LAST PICTURE IS THE 3RD ROW SEAT BELT AND THE DAMAGE TO IT.

AS I WAS TURNING LEFT INTO A COMMUNITY THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STILL IN DRIVE. I IMMEDIATELY PUT THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON. I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE FOR SAFETY WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STILL IN DRIVE. I LIFTED MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE AND THE CAR REMAINED STILL. I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL AND THE CAR REMAINED STILL. I THEN PLACED MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AGAIN AND IT WAS STIFF. WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T MOVE WHILE STILL IN DRIVE. I PLACED MY FOOT BACK ON THE BRAKE AND PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK. I PRESSED THE ENGINE BUTTON AND THE VEHICLE ENGINE CAME ON. I TURNED THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS OFF, PUT THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE AND CONTINUED MY DESTINATION. I HAVE A VIDEO, BUT IT EXCEEDS THE UPLOAD SIZE FOR THIS SITE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 10 MPH, THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT OF VEHICLE ALONG WITH A SMOKE ODOR. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO PULL THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY AND TURN THE IGNITION OFF BUT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S HOME WHERE AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND STATED THAT THE ALTERNATOR NEED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V634000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,600.

I HAD JUST EXITED AN UPHILL RAMP AFTER COMING OFF THE HIGHWAY FROM ABOUT 65 MPH TO 35 MPH. AFTER ENTERING THE RAMP I HAD TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT. WHEN IT WAS TIME TO TURN RIGHT, THE GAS WOULD NOT ACCELERATE THE CAR AND THE STEERING WHEEL HAD LOCKED UP. I HAD TO RESTART THE VEHICLE IN ORDER TO PROCEED WITH MY ROUTE. THIS IS THE SIXTH TIME THAT THIS HAS OCCURRED WHILE THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN EITHER IN MOTION OR TURNED ON IN THE PROCESS OF DRIVING. *TR

I WAS TAKING MY SON TO TUTORIALS. I TURNED RIGHT AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. TO KEEP FROM HAVING AN ACCIDENT, I HAD TO SLOWLY VEER TO THE LEFT UPON THE MEDIAN. I TURNED ON THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS. THE RADIO WAS STILL PLAYING, BUT THE CAR HAD SIMPLY STOPPED MOVING. I PRESSED THE ENGINE BUTTON TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. THEN I PRESSED IT AGAIN TO RESTART IT. IT STARTED WITH NO PROBLEMS AND I CONTINUED TO TAKE MY SON TO TUTORIALS. *TR

WE WERE DRIVING ABOUT 65 MPH AN WERE APPROACHING A MAJOR HIGHWAY INTERSECTION. THE AIR IN THE CAR BEGAN TO GET WARM AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. WE WERE BLESSED TO BE NEAR A SHOULDER WHERE WE COULD PULL OVER. I TURNED ON THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND WE PULLED OVER TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE FREEWAY. WE TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF, WAITED A MOMENT AND THEN TURNED IT BACK ON. THE ENGINE SHOOK WHEN THE VEHICLE RESTARTED. WE WERE ABLE TO DRIVE HOME WITHOUT ANY ADDITIONAL STOPPING. *TR

MY SON AND I WERE DRIVING TO A FRIEND'S HOME. WE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND THE AIR IN THE CAR BECAME WARM. WHEN I TRIED TO PUSH THE GAS PEDAL, NOTHING HAPPENED. THE STEERING WHEEL ALSO LOCKED UP. WE TURNED ON THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND RESTARTED THE CAR. THE CAR CONTINUED NORMALLY. *TR

I WAS TAKING MY CHILDREN TO SCHOOL. I HAD JUST EXITED THE FREEWAY AND SLOWED DOWN TO ABOUT 25 MPH. AS I SLOWED DOWN THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. THERE WAS NO WHERE TO VEER OFF IN THIS SITUATION BECAUSE WE WERE IN THE FARTHEST LEFT LANE THAT HAD TO TURN BENEATH THE UNDERPASS. BECAUSE WE WERE AT A STOP LIGHT, I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON, TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON. THE CAR SHOOK A LITTLE AND WE CONTINUED TO SCHOOL.

I WAS TAKING MY CHILDREN TO SCHOOL. WE WERE IN MORNING TRAFFIC ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY GOING NORTH. WE WERE IN THE SECOND FARTHEST LEFT LANE. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 65 MPH WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN ON ITS OWN. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. THIS TIME WE WERE IN A BULK OF TRAFFIC AND AN 18 WHEELER WAS BEHIND US. I TURNED ON OUR EMERGENCY LIGHTS, LOOKED TO THE LEFT AND HAD TO STICK MY LEFT ARM OUT THE WINDOW TO SIGNAL TO THE OTHER CARS BEHIND US TO LET US OVER TO THE LEFT SHOULDER. I WAS ABLE TO GUIDE THE VEHICLE TO THE LEFT SHOULDER. THE RADIO WAS STILL PLAYING. I TURNED THE CAR OFF, SAT FOR A MOMENT TO CALM DOWN AND CALLED MY HUSBAND. I THEN RESTARTED THE CAR AND CONTINUED TAKING MY CHILDREN TO SCHOOL. *TR

2012 DODGE DURANGO. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO ALTERNATOR SHORTED OUT AND CAUSED THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TO FAIL. CONSUMER VIN# NOT LISTED FOR ALTERNATOR RECALL NOTICE INFORMATION. *SMD THE CONSUMER REFERENCED RECALL # 14V630000. HOWEVER, HE WAS INFORMED HIS VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. *JB

MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO WAS PART OF THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 15V115000. THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT IN FOR THE REPLACEMENT PART IN SEPTEMBER OF 2015. THE REPAIR TEMPORARILY FIXED THE ISSUE. OVER THE LAST 4 MONTHS THE VEHICLE HAS HAD MANY ISSUES WITH STARTING AND/OR STAYING ON AND HAS BEEN TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP WHEN IT WOULD NO LONGER START. THERE WAS A LOOSE WIRE FOUND FOR THE EXTERNAL REPLACEMENT PART INSTALLED AS THE RECALL. THE VEHICLE THEN RAN NORMALLY FOR A WEEK BEFORE IT STARTED TO SHOW ISSUES WITH STARTING AND STAYING ENGAGED. THE PROBLEM QUICKLY ESCALATED WITH THE VEHICLE STALLING OUT ALMOST DAILY UPON BEING STARTED AND SOMETIMES THE ISSUE COULD ONLY BE RESOLVED BY THE EXTERNAL FUEL KIT RELAY MODULE BEING TAPPED. TODAY, 11/02/16 THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, LUCKILY IT WAS IN A SCHOOL ZONE WITH LITTLE TRAFFIC SO ANY POSSIBLY ACCIDENTS WERE AVOIDED. AN HOUR LATER THE VEHICLE STARTED ACTING AS IF LOSING FUEL PRESSURE WHILE TURNING AND THE GAS PEDAL HAD TO BE PUSHED TO THE FLOOR TO STABILIZE THE VEHICLE. THE LOCAL DODGE/CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN CONTACTED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE THIS ISSUE HAS PERSISTED AND WE WERE ADVISED THAT THEY HAD FULFILLED THEIR DUTIES UNDER THE RECALL AND WE COULD BRING THE CAR IN WHEN THERE WAS AN OPENING BUT THEY WERE NOT SURE WHAT THEY COULD DO UNLESS THE ISSUE HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS THERE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V115000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM), BUT THE REMEDY FAILED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO STALL AFTER THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

MY ALTERNATOR SUDDENLY FAILED CAUSING ALL SYSTEMS IN THE VEHICLE TO FAIL. MY ABS LIGHT CAME ON BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON RADIO POWERED OFF HEAT CAME ON AND IT SMELLED LIKE SMOKE THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS CAME ON WHEN I WAS AT A LIGHT THEN I TURNED AT LIGHT AND HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF SINCE I SMELLED SMOKE. THEN NO SYSTEMS IN THE VEHICLE WORKED HAD TO USE SHIFT OVERRIDE TO TOW THE VEHICLE. THERE IS A P60 RECALL ON THE 160 AMP ALTERNATOR WHICH ISN'T THE ALTERNATOR IN MY CAR BUT SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL AS MY CAR WAS RECALLED. THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS THAT RECALL HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THAT THE RECALL SHOULD BE APPLIED TO THE SAME AMP ALTERNATOR THAT IS IN MY CAR AS WELL.

CAR WOULDN'T START FROM BEING PARKED, SMELLED BURNING UNDER HOOD. WAS ABLE TO TAKE A BATTERY JUMP, BUT COULD ONLY GO HALF MILE BEFORE STALLING WITHOUT WARNING. HAD ALTERNATOR TESTED BAD. REPLACED IT TWICE& STILL HAVING PROBLEMS ALL TESTING BAD. HAD NO WARNING EXCEPT BATTERY ICON FLASHED ON BRIEFLY & THEN WENT OFF PRIOR TO INCIDENT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ALL POWER, STALLED, AND WOULD NOT RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALTERNATOR HAD BURNT WIRES, WHICH CAUSED THE SHUT DOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TOWED TO A DEALER FOR THE REPAIR, BUT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V634000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.

I SMELLED BURNING WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. THE CAR JUST DIED. I GOT OUT RAISED HOOD. SMELLED BURNING AT ALTERNATOR. CAR IS COMPLETELY DEAD. CALLED TOW TRUCK.. NEXT DAY. CAR TOWED TO ALL TECH AUTO. DIAGNOSIS- 180AMP ALTERNATOR BAD AND CAUSED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO TIPM AND PCM. PAID 760.00 FOR REPLACED ALTERNATOR. TOWED TO DEALERSHIP - TIPM AND PCM SHORTED OUT, 2066.00 TO REPAIR. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP WAITING FOR ME TO EARN THE MONEY TO REPAIR. IM PRAYING THAT I WILL HAVE AN ADDITIONAL 2066.00 IN TWO WEEKS SO I CAN GET REPAIRS COMPLETED. FCA RECALLED 160AMP AND 220AMP. HOW DO THEY SKIP OVER THE 180AMP IN THE DURANGO CREW? YOU WON'T HAVE AS MANY COMPLAINTS BECAUSE THERE WEREN'T AS MANY MANUFACTURED AS THE OTHER MODELS - UNFAIR! SEND SOMEONE TO INVESTIGATE BEFORE REPAIRS ARE MADE. *TR

IN DECEMBER 2011 I PURCHASED A NEW 2012 DODGE DURANGO CITADEL FROM NORTHTOWN DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (NDCJR), IN TONAWANDA, NY. I AM HAVING AN ISSUES WITH PERIODIC STALLING WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING. IN APRIL 2016 WHILE SLOWING DOWN TO EXIT RIGHT VIA A THRUWAY RAMP THE DURANGO STALLED AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED WITHOUT ANY WARNING. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE INTO NDCJR ON 4/30/2016 AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE 'UNABLE TO MAKE ANY REPAIRS BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE'. IN JULY 2016, MY HUSBAND EXPERIENCED THE STALLING WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN. MY MOST TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE CAME IN AUGUST OF 2016 WHEN I WAS ON A MAIN ROAD IN BUSY EVENING TRAFFIC, SLOWING DOWN TO MERGE INTO THE LEFT TURNING LANE, AND THE CAR COMPLETELY STALLED AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKING AGAIN ALMOST CAUSING ME TO REAR END THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. I CONTACTED NCDJR TO INFORM THEM THAT THIS WAS HAPPENING AGAIN AND THAT I NEEDED MY VEHICLE SERVICED. NORTHTOWN HAD MY VEHICLE FROM 8/6/2016-8/30/2016 AND I WAS AGAIN TOLD, THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE REPAIRED BECAUSE 'THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM'. ON THE EVENING OF THURSDAY, 9/29/2016 I WAS GETTING OFF AT AN EXPRESSWAY RAMP AND WAS SITTING IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO CHANGE, AND WHEN I ACCELERATED THE CAR MADE NO MOTION, I WAS AGAIN STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. PER THEIR INSTRUCTION, I CONTACTED NCDJR AND TOLD THEM I WAS BRINGING THE VEHICLE RIGHT OVER. THEY AGAIN COULD NOT "DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM" HOWEVER THEY DECIDED TO PUT A TRACKING DEVICE ON THE CAR SO THAT WHEN IT STALLS AGAIN IT CAN BE RECORDED. I PICKED THE VEHICLE UP 6 DAYS LATER ON WEDNESDAY, 10/5/2016. I FEEL THAT I HAVE BEEN MORE THAN PATIENT AND HAVE BEEN THROUGH ALL OF THE PROPER CHANNELS, HOWEVER, I AM BEING ASKED TO CONTINUE TO PUT MY FAMILY, MYSELF AND OTHERS AT RISK BY DRIVING A CAR THAT IS UNSAFE TO HAVE ON THE ROAD IN THIS CONDITION. *TR

MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO PURCHASED BRAND NEW HAS BEEN HAVING MAJOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES SINCE THE MOTOR WAS POWER WASHED AT COVERT DODGE DEALERSHIP IN NORTH AUSTIN. THEY HAD AN INEXPERIENCED CAR WASHER CLEAN UP THE OIL THAT WAS ON THE MOTOR FROM A HOSE CHANGE. HE USED A VERY HIGH PRESSURE, PRESSURE WASHER AND IT SHORTED THE ELECTRONICS CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SHUT DOWN UNEXPECTEDLY WITH NO WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES WITHIN THE LAST 6 MONTHS. I HAVE HAD THE CAR AT 3 DIFFERENT DODGE DEALERS TRYING TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. ON 9/22/2016 THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON WHILE GOING 75 ON THE HIGHWAY. I SMELLED A STRONG ODOR OF ELECTRICAL BURNING AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD CAME ON, THE BLIND SPOT ALERT SYSTEM WAS STATING IT WAS INOPERABLE, THE AC STOPPED WORKING, THE SEAT BELT LIGHT AND BUZZER STATED TO GO OFF EVEN THOUGH MY BELT WAS FASTENED AND THEN THE DURANGO JUST SHUT OFF, RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TOLL ROAD HIGHWAY STRANDING ME IN THE MIDDLE LANE. THE HAZARD LIGHTS DID NOT EVEN WORK. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK TO TRY TO RESTART IT BUT IT WAS TOTALLY DEAD, NOTHING WORKED AND THE CAR WAS STUCK IN PARK! I COULD NOT PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL TO MOVE IT OUT OF THE HIGHWAY, SEVERAL CARS DID NOT REALIZE I WAS STOPPED AND LOCKED UP THEIR BRAKES NEARLY MISSING ME. I WAS SO AFRAID SOMEONE WAS GOING TO RUN RIGHT INTO THE BACK OF ME AND THE CAR. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. I CALLED THE MOPAR WARRANTY ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE AND 1 HOURS LATER I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR OFF THE 102 DEGREE HIGHWAY. AS A RESULT OF ALL OF THESE ISSUES, WHICH SEEM TO HAVE STARTED WHEN COVERT DODGE POWER WASHED THE ENGINE BAY, I AM NO LONGER CONFIDENT THE VEHICLE CAN BE TRUSTED AND BE RELIABLE NOT TO MENTION THE SAFETY FACTOR. AS YOU CAN TELL FROM THE VEHICLE HISTORY, I FEEL I HAVE BEEN PATIENT AND COOPERATIVE IN ALLOWING CHRYSLER AND THE DEALERSHIPS TO FIND A RESOLUTION. UPDATED 08/07/2017*JS

ENGINE STALLED AND CAR SHUT OFF. ONCE FROM A STOP WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE AND ANOTHER TIME WHILE TRYING TO STOP. IN BOTH INSTANCES AN ACCIDENT WAS NEARLY AVOIDED. MY WIFE ON 9/13 WAS TURNING ACROSS TRAFFIC AND THE CAR DIED AND SHE WAS ALMOST T-BONED. ON 9/14 I ALMOST REAR ENDED A CAR AS I WAS SLOWING TO A STOP AND LOST ALL POWER. WIPERS WILL COME ON RANDOMLY ON DRY, SUNNY DAYS (WHILE PARKED OR IN MOTION). CAR JERKS FORWARD INTERMITTENTLY WHEN STARTING (USING REMOTE START OR WHILE IN THE CAR). OCCASIONALLY THE CAR CONTINUES TO TURN OVER BUT NEVER ACTUALLY STARTS. I HAVE TAKEN THIS TO THE DEALER 7-8 TIMES AND THEY'VE NEVER HEARD OF THESE PROBLEMS. NO ERROR CODES RECORDED. NEVER ABLE TO BE REPRODUCED WHEN AT THE DEALER. CONTACTED ANOTHER DODGE DEALER AND THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THESE ISSUES EITHER. TOOK TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND HE IMMEDIATELY RECOGNIZED THIS AS A POTENTIAL TIPM ISSUE. THE FUEL RELAY RECALL WAS IMPLEMENTED IN SUMMER OF 2015 WHICH WAS SUPPOSED TO RESOLVE THESE ISSUE. HOWEVER, ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS CONTINUE TO INTERMITTENTLY OCCUR - WITH THE STALLING (AND NEAR ACCIDENTS) JUST OCCURRING FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS PAST WEEK. SPOKE WITH DODGE YESTERDAY EXPLAINING THE SITUATION AND BOTH DEALERS DIDN'T WANT TO SELL ME A NEW TIPM BECAUSE THEY WEREN'T SURE IT WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM AND REITERATED THAT THE FUEL RELAY RECALL WOULD FIX THESE ISSUES. WHEN I STATED THAT I AM STILL HAVING THE ISSUES THEY DIDN'T HAVE AN ANSWER BUT WERE WILLING TO TAKE MY CAR IN ON TRADE. WE CURRENTLY HAVE 93000 MILES BUT THIS STARTED SHORTLY AFTER WE PURCHASED THE DURANGO; WITH WELL UNDER 40000 MILES. WE WERE STILL UNDER WARRANTY WHEN THIS STARTED BUT NO FAULT WAS EVER FOUND WHEN AT THE DEALER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE SLOWING DOWN OR WHILE AT A COMPLETE STOP, THE VEHICLE LOST ENGINE POWER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, BUT THEY DID NOT RESOLVE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION INDEPENDENTLY SHIFTED INTO FIRST GEAR AND THE VEHICLE DECELERATED TO 20 MPH. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY APPROXIMATELY FOUR TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING; HOWEVER, THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 WEEKS ALONG WITH AUDIBLE ALARM FOR THE AIRBAG LIGHT THEN IT WENT OFF.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE LOW BATTERY, ABS, AND TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. IN ADDITION, A BURNING ODOR EMITTED IN AND OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALTERNATOR FAILED AND BURNED THE SERPENTINE BELT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V634000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 66,500.

IN NOVEMBER OF 2014, DODGE ISSUED A RECALL OF THE 160 AMP ALTERNATORS DUE TO EARLY FAILURE AND RISK OF FIRE. SATURDAY, AUGUST 20, 2016, THE ALTERNATOR ON THIS VEHICLE FAILED WITH THE SAME SYMPTOMS: HIGH HEAT, BURNING SMELL, AND THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STOPPED RUNNING. HOWEVER, THIS VEHICLE HAS A 180 AMP ALTERNATOR. THERE ARE OTHER REPORTS OF THE 180 AMP ALTERNATOR FAILING IN VERY SIMILAR WAYS AS THE 160 AMP. THE RECALL MUST BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE ALL ALTERNATORS FOR THE DOGDGE DURANGO. A FAILURE AT LESS THAN 60,000 MILES, AND A FAILURE IN A MANNER THAT PRESENTS A RISK OF FIRE IS A MAJOR ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED QUICKLY.

ALTERNATOR FAILED IN MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO. I HAVE ONLY HAD MY VEHICLE FOR 4 YEARS 3 MONTHS, 48,904 MILES AND DO MOSTLY CITY DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN I BEGAN TO SMELL A BURNT SCENT. SOON AFTER I NOTICED THE AIR CONDITIONER POWER MINIMIZED RAPIDLY AND THE BURNT SCENT CONTINUED. LUCKILY AT THAT POINT I WAS GETTING HOME AND THEREFORE I IMMEDIATELY PARKED MY VEHICLE. WAS INSPECTED BY A MECHANIC WHO CONFIRMED THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE ALTERNATOR.

DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY IN NJ ON 7/21/16 , ALL THE CAR WARNING LIGHTS WENT ON RANDOMLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY, WINDSHIELD WIPERS WENT ON ON THEIR OWN, RADIO SHUT OFF, ALL POWER WAS LOST AND CAR SHUT DOWN ALMOST IMMEDIATELY WITH LIMITED OR NO BRAKING OR STEERING POWER AND THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN ON ANY LONGER. I TRIED TO MAKE IT SAFELY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD (LEFT SHOULDER WAS THE CLOSEST) WITH BIG TRUCKS AND FAST MOVING CARS GOING BY. HAD IT TOWED TO AN AUTO BODY SHOP WHICH TOOK 2 DAYS TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM WHICH THEY DEEMED A FAILURE OF THE MAIN BOARD WHICH CAUSED THE ALTERNATOR TO FAIL WHICH CAUSED THE BATTERY TO SEIZE AND FAIL AS WELL. THE COSTS OF REPAIR I HAD TO PAY TO FIX THE ISSUE ON MY 4 YEAR OLD CAR WITH 92K MILES ON IT WAS APPROX $1,500. THE SYMPTOMS AND DIAGNOSIS WERE ALMOST IDENTICAL TO THE P60 RECALL ISSUED BY CHRYLSER BUT WHEN I INQUIRED WITH CHRYSLER ABOUT GETTING MY VEHICLE COVERED UNDER THE RECALL AND REIMBURSED FOR THE COSTS OF REPAIR, THEY CLAIMED THAT THE RECALL DID NOT APPLY TO MY CAR BC IT IS 180 AMP VS 160 AMP (?) BUT IT IS VERY OBVIOUS AND CLEAR TO ME THAT WHAT HAPPENED TO MY CAR WAS EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE P60 RECALL. NOT TO MENTION IT WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT I ENCOUNTERED WITH MY CAR STOPPING IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY. IT COULD HAVE BEEN TRAGIC HAD I NOT BEEN ABLE TO NAVIGATE IT WELL. CHRYSLER IS BASICALLY REFUSING TO EXTEND THE RECALL TO MY VIN # AND NOT REIMBURSING MY REPAIR COSTS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,416.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V879000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, INTERIOR LIGHTING); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

DASH LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING CAR SHUT OFF, CHARGED BATTERY, ALTERNATOR STARTED SMOKING, REPLACED ALTERNATOR, REPLACED BATTERY, BATTERY IS STILL DRAINING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE BATTERY WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND A WHINING SOUND WAS HEARD. IN ADDITION, WHILE PARKED, AN ODOR OF BURNT WIRES WAS NOTICED IN THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALTERNATOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO EQUIPPED WITH MICHELIN LATITUDE TOUR TIRES, SIZE: P265/60R18 (NA). UPON INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT ALL FOUR TIRES WERE DRY ROTTED. THE TIRES WERE NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE DOT NUMBER WAS NOT PROVIDED. THE TIRE AND VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,811.

CAR SOMETIMES WILL NOT START, OR STARTS AND QUICKLY SHUTS OFF (SOMETIMES IN DRIVE OR REVERSE). IF YOU PUSH START BUTTON IT TRIES TO "TURN OVER" REVVING BUT NEVER STARTING. HAS DONE INTERMITTENTLY BUT GOTTEN REALLY BAD IN MAY 2016 FROM EVERY OTHER DAY TO SOMETIMES SEVERAL TIMES A DAY. DEALER "CAN'T FIND" PROBLEM. DATE BELOW FIRST DATE DEALER ACTUALLY WROTE DOWN PROBLEM. HAVE ALL SERVICE FORMS AND DOCUMENTS. BELIEVE IT IS THE TIPM MODULE. CAR ALARM HAS GONE OFF WITH DOOR LOCK PROBLEMS AFTER STARTER ISSUE AS WELL. DEALER AGAIN "CAN'T DUPLICATE PROBLEM" AND HAS DENIED KNOWING ABOUT ONGOING LAWSUIT ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND HAS ACTUALLY LIED TO US ABOUT WARRANTY INFORMATION NUMEROUS TIMES. ALSO HAVE VIDEO OF PROBLEM ON CELL PHONE. VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN PARK AND IN DRIVE/REVERSE AS WE WERE JUST STARTING TO DRIVE/BACK UP WHEN IT QUIT RUNNING. IT GOES "DEAD" WITHOUT A SOUND BUT ALL LIGHTS ARE ON, VEHICLE STATES IT IS RUNNING BUT YOU CANNOT MOVE WHEEL. YOU HAVE TO PUT BACK IN PARK, HIT START BUTTON AGAIN TO SHUT OFF IN ORDER TO ATTEMPT TO FIX PROBLEM. SOMETIMES TAKES SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO GET IT STARTED.

IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING A SCHEDULED OIL CHANGE AT THE DEALERSHIP, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I NOTICED A BURNING SMELL AS I WAS GOING DOWN THE SLIGHT DECLINE FROM THE DEALER LOT ONTO THE STREET. I RETURNED TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHERE THEY INSPECTED THE CAR AND DIAGNOSED THE ISSUE AS A FAILED ALTERNATOR. BECAUSE OF THE COSTLY REPAIR, I OPTED TO GET A SECOND OPINION. THIS MECHANIC ALSO DIAGNOSED THE ISSUE AS A FAULTY ALTERNATOR. HE CHECKED THE VIN FOR A RECALL, AND DID NOT SEE MY VIN LISTED, THOUGH THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE ALTERNATOR ON DODGE DURANGOS MADE IN 2011-2014, MATCHING THE SPECS OF MY AUTO. BECAUSE THE CAR WAS A 2012, I ASKED IF THIS IS COMMON FOR SUCH A "YOUNG" CAR. HE DID NOT THINK IT WAS A TYPICAL ISSUE. WHAT HE ALSO THOUGHT WAS ODD WAS THAT TRACKING DOWN A REPLACEMENT ALTERNATOR TO FIT THE VEHICLE WAS DIFFICULT; THERE WAS ONLY ONE COMPATIBLE PART AVAILABLE WITHIN A SIX STATE RADIUS, AND WAS INFORMED THAT THEY WERE NOT PRESENTLY BEING MANUFACTURED TO ACCOMMODATE THE NEED. WE WERE LUCKY TO SECURE THE ITEM AND HAVE IT OVERNIGHTED. THE LACK OF PARTS AND ALLEGED HOLD ON MANUFACTURING DREW THE ASSUMPTION THAT 1) THERE WERE SEVERAL OF THE SAME MODEL EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES AND/OR 2) ADDITIONAL RECALL WAS IMMINENT. HE STRONGLY ENCOURAGED ME TO CONTACT CHRYSLER TO REQUEST REIMBURSEMENT AND OFFERED TO ACT AS AN EXPERT WITNESS AND TESTIMONY TO WHAT HE ENCOUNTERED. FCA (CHRYSLER) WAS NOT RESPONSIVE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V879000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, INTERIOR LIGHTING). THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. APPROXIMATELY SIX WEEKS LATER, WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, SMOKE APPEARED FROM THE TOP LEFT CORNER OF THE WINDSHIELD AND SUN ROOF. THE CONTACT PARKED THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED FLAMES IN THE SAME LOCATION. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS LEFT AT THE SCENE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,000.

THE ALTERNATOR IN MY DURANGO FAILED SUDDENLY. WE LUCKILY HAD JUST ARRIVED AT MY DAUGHTER'S DAY CAR WHEN THE CAR SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN AND WE NOTICED SMOKE. WHEN WE GOT OUT TO CHECK UNDER THE HOOD, THE ALTERNATOR WAS SMOKING! I HAD TO HAVE THE DURANGO TOWED TO MY DEALERSHIP AS THERE WAS NO POWER TO THE DURANGO AT ALL. THE DEALERSHIP ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE, AND COULD NOT START THE CAR USING A JUMPER BOX, OR BY JUMPING IT WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE ALTERNATOR HAD COMPLETELY DRAINED THE BATTERY. WE WERE TOLD A FEW DAYS LATER THAT THEY WERE ATTEMPTING TO LOCATE AN ALTERNATOR AS IT WAS BACK ORDERED, AND IT COULD BE UP TO 6 WEEKS OR MORE BEFORE THEY COULD GET ONE. WHEN WE INQUIRED AS TO WHY, WE WERE TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE ALTERNATOR FOR MANY CHRYSLER AND DODGE VEHICLES AND THAT EVEN THOUGH OUR DURANGO FALLS IN THE SPECIFIC YEARS, IT WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. WHEN THEY FINALLY CALLED TO LET US KNOW THE DURANGO WAS READY TO BE PICKED UP, WE DROVE MAYBE A HALF MILE DOWN THE ROAD AND THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. WE RETURNED IT IMMEDIATELY BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER, THEY INFORMED US THAT BECAUSE OF THE ALTERNATOR FAILURE, THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE WAS BAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. NOW, THE DEALERSHIP IS TELLING US THAT THE ECM IS NO LONGER FUNCTIONING PROPERLY BECAUSE OF THE ISSUES WITH THE ALTERNATOR AND THAT WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITHOUT IT. THEY CONTACTED DODGE TO INFORM THEM OF THE FAULTY ALTERNATOR THAT CAUSED THE ECM FAILURE AND DODGE TOLD THEM, TOO BAD.

DRIVING ON INTERSTATE TAKING KIDS TO SCHOOL WHEN BRAKE LIGHT SUDDENLY CAME ON AND VEHICLE BRAKES WERE LIKE PUSHING A BRICK. HAD SOMEONE PICK UP THE KIDS AND TOOK TO LOCAL REPAIR SHOP I USE. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER HAD WENT OUT AND WHEN THEY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP FOR A PART WAS TOLD IT WAS ON BACK ORDER NATIONALLY WITH NO ESTIMATE OF THE TIME TO TAKE TO GET THE PART IN STOCK. BEST GUESS WAS 3-6 MONTHS. NO MENTION THAT THE VEHICLE HAD A RECALL ON THE PART (P41). ITEM REPAIRED WITH A USED OEM PART FROM A LOW-MILEAGE DURANGO SINCE NO OTHER PART WAS AVAILABLE TO USE. I STILL HAVE THE DEFECTIVE PART THAT HAD TO BE REPLACED ALONG WITH DOCUMENTATION FROM REPAIR SHOP THAT IT WAS REQUIRED TO BE REPLACED. ON INTERSTATE AGAIN TODAY WITH KIDS IN VEHICLE AND SUDDENLY HAD NO ABILITY TO GO ABOVE 20 MPH AND PULLED OVER TO HAVE CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. WAS TAKING IT IN FOR FUEL PUMP RELAY (R09) RECALL THIS MORNING ANYWAY. FUEL PUMP RELAY WAS REPAIRED. DEALERSHIP SAYS THE WHEELS LOCKED UP ON THEM AND RECOMMENDED REPLACING THE POWER BRAKE BOOSTER AND MASTER CYLINDER AT A COST OF $800 SINCE IT COULD BE RELATED TO PREVIOUS POWER BRAKE BOOSTER REPAIR DUE TO A USED PART REPLACEMENT. I ASKED IF THE PART WAS COVERED UNDER THE RECALL AND EXPLAINED EVERYTHING AND WAS TOLD THAT SINCE IT WAS DONE BY ANOTHER REPAIR SHOP AND A USED PART THAT THE RECALL DID NOT COVER THE PART AND IT WOULD BE OUT OF POCKET NOR COULD I RECOVER THE COST FROM THE PREVIOUS FIX EVEN THOUGHT THE PART WAS ON BACK ORDER. ASKED FOR CORPORATE CONTACT AND WAS GIVEN (800)992-1997. SPOKE WITH REPRESENTATIVE AND WAS TOLD I WOULD BE CALLED BACK. LATE AFTERNOON I CALLED AGAIN SINCE I WAS STILL WAITING FOR THE CALL BACK. I WAS TOLD THAT THE ENTIRE COST WOULD BE OUT OF POCKET AND THAT THE RECALL WOULD NOT COVER PART OR REIMBURSEMENT SINCE A NON-CHRYSLER MECHANIC PERFORMED THE WORK AND A USED PART WAS USED.

MY DURANGO STARTED MAKING NOISE IN THE BACK END, AND SEEMED UNSTABLE AT TIMES HANDLING, AND EVEN WORSE WHEN TOWING. THE NOISE WAS MOST PRONOUNCED GOING SLOW OVER BUMPY ROADS, LIKE A CLUNKING NOISE. UPON RESEARCHING I DISCOVERED THAT THESE VEHICLES ARE KNOWN FOR HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE REAR SELF-LEVELING SHOCKS. THESE SHOCKS ARE NOT A CHEAP FIX, BUT KNOWING I HAD NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO REPLACE THEM WITH THE SAME PROBLEMATIC SHOCKS, I REPLACED THEM. THE DURANGO WAS SILENT FOR A COUPLE DAYS, THEN A NOISE AGAIN APPEARED IN THE BACK END OF THE VEHICLE. ISSUES WITH THE REAR SHOCKS ARE DESCRIBED IN CHRYSLER TSB 17-005-13 AS WELL AS TSB 17-002-14, BUT SINCE MINE IS A 2012 DURANGO AND NOT CALLED OUT FOR THE TSB 17-002-14. THE SHOCKS THAT WERE INSTALLED ARE THE NEW SERIES AH SHOCKS (FROM AA THAT WAS ON THE VEHICLE) THE AH SERIES PURCHASED CAME WITH MOUNTS PREINSTALLED. THE VEHICLE HAS A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF NOISE IN THE BACK END, AND CLUNKING GOING ON THAT IS DEFINITELY SHOCK RELATED, IT MAY BE A DIFFERENT NOISE THEN BEFORE, BUT NOW IT IS EVEN WORSE WITH THE NEW SHOCKS. SINCE REPLACING THE SHOCKS IT IS DIFFICULT TO EXPLAIN WHEN THE NOISES/CLUNKING WILL HAPPEN ' IT USE TO HAPPEN CONSISTENTLY WHEN GOING SLOW OVER A BUMPY ROAD, NO THAT IS NOT THE CASE ' SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS WHEN GOING SLOW, SOMETIMES FASTER, SOMETIMES JUST AROUND A CORNER, THERE SEEMS TO BE NOTHING COMMON ABOUT WHEN THE SHOCKS ARE GOING TO START MAKING NOISE JUST THAT THEY WILL, AND THEY WILL MAKE NOISE OFTEN. IT JUST SEEMS THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG, AND NOT SAFE IN THE REAR SUSPENSION.

ALTERNATOR FAILURE AS COMMON WITH THE P60 RECALL. THE ALTERNATOR IN MY DURANGO FAILED SUDDENLY AND WE LOST ALL POWER. WE WERE LUCKY IN THAT WE WERE ON A RESIDENTIAL ROAD AT LOW SPEED AND ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE SAFELY. THE ALTERNATOR WAS SMOKING. MY DURANGO IS NOT COVERED BY THIS RECALL SO I FELT IT IMPORTANT TO REPORT THIS IS STILL HAPPENING WITH OTHER ALTERNATORS WITH THE V6. I DID CALL INTO CHRYSLER AND THEY CONFIRMED MY VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED BY P60.

I PURCHASED THIS USED VEHICLE AROUND THE TURN OF THE YEAR. IT CAME ON THE FERRY JANUARY 15, 2016. BY MONDAY, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAD TURNED ON. C&F RAN A DIAGNOSTIC ON JANUARY 20, AND FOUND CODE PO456. WITHIN SEVERAL DAYS, I NOTICED WATER INTRUSION. THE FLOORBOARDS WERE WET AND BECOMING DRENCHED IN THE FRONT ' AND IN THE MIDDLE SEATS. EVERY TIME I CAME TO A STOP OR TURNED, I COULD HEAR WATER ROLLING THROUGH THE CAR. I TOOK IT TO RC FEBRUARY 15. WHEN THE WATER PROBLEM WAS LOOKED AT, I WAS INFORMED IT IS NOT A NORMAL LEAK, BUT WHAT IS CALLED A "PHANTOM" LEAK. TO FIX THIS, THEY WOULD HAVE TO GUT THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN THEY WENT TO RESTART, IT WOULD NOT START WITH THE PUSH BUTTON. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MIDTOWN AUTO WHERE THEY FOUND THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT 3/4 FULL OF WATER. THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PUSH BUTTON PROBLEM AFTER 2 HOURS OF DIAGNOSTIC. THEY STATED THE WATER INTRUSION COULD BE A DANGER TO MY LIFE WHEN I PICKED UP THE CAR AFTER THEY HAD IT FOR 3 WEEKS. ON 3/9/16, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. AS OF TODAY, 3/25/16, THE SENSOR FOR "CHECK GAS CAP" COMES ON. THIS CAR WILL BE RETURNING IN THE MORNING TO THE DEALERSHIP IN ANCHORAGE VIA THE FERRY, BUT YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT THERE ARE MAJOR ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE WATER IN THE CAR IS CLEAN WITH NO DIRT. IN THE MORNING, THERE ARE PUDDLES THAT DISTRIBUTE THEMSELVES FROM THE FRONT TO THE BACK OF THE CAR DURING REGULAR DRIVING. THE ENTIRE FLOOR FROM THE FRONT TO THE BACK IS SATURATED WITH A LOT OF WATER. RC ENTERPRISE SAID THERE IS NO WINDOW LEAK, NO DOOR LEAK, NO ROOF LEAK. THIS MUST BE SOMETHING IN THE FRAME. THIS CAR COLLECTS WATER WHILE DRIVING OR SITTING IN PARK. DUE TO THE BATTERY BEING UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT AND IN THE FLOOR AND THEN FILLING WITH WATER, THIS IS NOT A SAFE CAR.

MY 180 AMP ALTERNATOR STOPPED WORKING WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON A CITY STREET. THE CURRENT P60 RECALL ONLY COVERS THE 160 AMP ALTERNATOR, BUT IT SHOULD COVER BOTH PIECES OF EQUIPMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT IS SITTING, WAITING TO GET A NEW 180 AMP ALTERNATOR INSTALLED. I WAS QUOTED $900 PARTS AND LABOR FOR THE REPAIR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V879000(ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, INTERIOR LIGHTING); HOWEVER, THE REMEDY OR PART FOR THE RECALL WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE HEADLIGHTS STOPPED ILLUMINATING. THE CONTACT SWITCHED THE LIGHTS ON MANUALLY IN ORDER FOR THEM TO WORK. THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT NOTIFIED THE DEALER, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,000.

BRAKE VACUUM BOOSTER FAILED RESULTING IN LOSS OF POWER ASSISTED BRAKING. THE RECALL FOR THE BOOSTER WAS DONE TWO YEARS AGO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THERE WAS A BURNING ODOR AND THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. WHEN THE IGNITION WAS TURNED TO THE ON POSITION, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL SMELL OF BURNING PLASTIC AND THICK SMOKE APPEARED FROM THE VANITY LAMP AND ENTERED THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT TURNED OFF AND EXITED THE VEHICLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES REPORTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TOWED DUE TO THE DANGER OF THE VEHICLE ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V879000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, INTERIOR LIGHTING). THE MANUFACTURER ALSO STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V530000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 70,000.

RECENTLY THE STARTER HAS FAILED 2 DAYS AFTER THE RECALLS HAVE BEEN UPDATED AT THE DEALERSHIP RELATING TO THE ALTERNATOR AND THE FUEL PUMP RELAY. THE SUV ONLY HAS 24,271 MILES ON IT. THE VECHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN IT FAILED

MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO HAS FAULTY WIRING THAT IS CAUSING MY AIR BAGS TO NOT WORK. IF THE FAULTY WIRING IS NOT REPLACED THEN THE AIRBAGS CAN EXPLODE AT ANY TIME WHILE DRIVING, I HAVE A 100 MILE WARRANTY AND DODGE IS SAYING THAT THEY WILL NOT COVER THE FAULTY WIRING THAT THEY INSTALLED. IT WILL COST $1300 TO HAVE THE DEFECT FIXED.

MY ISSUES BEGAN LAST NOVEMBER WITH THE LIFT GATE. WHILE DRIVING THROUGH MY NEIGHBORHOOD, THE LIFT GATE DECIDED TO OPEN. ALARMED, I STOPPED QUICKLY AND CLOSED THE LIFT GATE. AFTER I ARRIVED HOME IT WOULD NOT OPEN AGAIN. THIS CONTINUED FOR A WEEK. THE LATCH, INTERIOR BUTTON, AND KEY FOB WOULD NOT OPEN IT. I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT AND IT MAGICALLY STARTED WORKING FINE JUST 2 DAYS PRIOR TO THE APPOINMENT. THE SECOND ISSUE WE EXPERIENCED CAME SHORTLY AFTER. THE CAR WOULD SHUT DOWN AFTER USING THE REMOTE START AFTER A FEW SECONDS. I FOUND THAT THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED AND RE-TIGHTENED THE GAS CAP. THE LIGHT DID NOT SHUT OFF, SO I DECIDED TO TAKE IT VERY EASY AND MONITOR THE VEHICLE FOR THE REST OF THE DAY. THE LIGHT EVENTUALLY TURNED OFF. A WEEK LATER AND IT IS BACK ON AGAIN. NOT SURE WHAT IS GOING ON AS EVERYTHING APPEARS TO BE FINE. MY WIFE DROVE MY SON TO BASKETBALL PRACTICE AND SAID SHE WITNESSED THE HEATER TURN ON ALL BY ITSELF (AFTER HAVING BEEN SHUT COMPLETELY OFF). SHE TURNED IT OFF AND DIDN'T GIVE IT MUCH THOUGHT UNTIL IT DID IT AGAIN. IT CONTINUED TO DO THIS THE ENTIRE DRIVE TO PRACTICE. IT SEEMS LIKE THIS VEHICLE IS POSSESED AND I THINK THIS IS JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBURG. HOPEFULLY, SOMETHING DANGEROUS WILL NOT HAPPEN WITH SOME OTHER SYSTEM.

IWHEN DRIVING VEHICLE IN WET OR LONG PERIODS OF DAMP WEATHER DASH LIGHTS WILL GO OUT AND WHEN MOVING TURN SIGNAL ON DASH LIGHTS COME ON AND HEAD LIGHTS GO OUT .I WILL NOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AT NIGHT. DEALER CAN'T DUPLICATE THIS THIS PROBLEM

WHILE DRIVING BATTERY RED LIGHT ON DASHBOARD LIGHT UP MAKE IT HOME JUST 1 MILE AWAY. NEXT DAY WHEN START THE CAR TO SEE IF ANYTHING CHANGE OR FIND ANYTHING WRONG THAT I CAN SEE. THE CAR START NO BATTERY LIGHT, NO LONGER ON, AFTER LIKE A MINUTE I START BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND I HEARD A NOISE (LIKE A BUZZING) NOISE I DRIVE BACK IN MY DRIVEWAY, WHILE ENGINE RUNNING I OPEN THE HOOD TO LOOK FROM WHERE THE NOISE WAS COMING AND I SEE LOT OF SMOKE WAS COMING FROM ALTERNATOR I WENT SHOT OFF ENGINE AND IT GOT THE THROTTLE BODY RED LIGHT ON THE DASH BOARD ON AND THE SMOKE INTENSIFIED I SHOT OFF THE ENGINE AND DISCONNECT THE BATTERY TO PREVENT THE CAR TO GOT ON FIRE .THE SMOKE STILL COMING OUT OF THE ALTERNATOR FOR APPROXIMATELY 15 TO 20 MINUTES AFTER I SHOT OFF AND DISCONNECT THE BATTERY.NOW I DON'T EVEN WANT TO CONNECT THE BATTERY BACK. THIS IS AVERY UNSAFE SITUATION IF I WOULD BE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AND THE ALTERNATOR FAIL IT WOULD DISABLE THE ENGINE MAKING IT HARD TO STEER THE CAR AND APPLY THE BRAKES THE POWER STEERING PUMP IN THIS CAR IS ELECTRIC NO ELECTRIC POWER NO STEERING ASSIST , NO ENGINE RUNNING NO BREAK ASSIST AND THE CHANCE THE BATTERY FAIL BECAUSE OF SHORT OR BURN ALTERNATOR CAN CAUSE THE BATTERY TO OVERHEAT THE BATTERY IS INSIDE THE CAR UNDER PASSENGER SEAT. I WAS LUCKY THAT I NOTICE THE SITUATION RIGHT AWAY AND TAKE ACTION TO PREVENT AN ACCIDENT OR A FIRE .

MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO HAS LOST STEERING POWER 4 TIMES SINCE I PURCHASED IT NEW. THE FIRST 3 TIMES THE REPAIR WAS PERFORMED UNDER WARRANTY BY LARRY H MILLER DODGE, 4220 E 22ND STREET, TUCSON, AZ. 85711, (520) 745-1000. IN THESE CASES, THE DEALER CLAIMED A HOSE HAD COME OFF AND THEY CONNECTED IT BACK ON. DOCUMENTATION ON THESE REPAIRS AVAILABLE IS UPON REQUEST. THE ISSUE WAS REPORTED TO CHRYSLER-DODGE CONSUMER AFFAIRS DEPT. AND WAS ASSIGNED CASE NO. 24966049. MY VEHICLE LOST STEERING POWER FOR THE FOURTH TIME ON DECEMBER 21, 2015. IT LEFT A HUGE PUDDLE OF FLUID ON THE PAVEMENT AND THE POWER STEERING CONTAINER IS EMPTY. EVERY TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, WE HAVE BEEN LUCKY TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. HOWEVER, WE HAVE BECOME AFRAID OF DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE CAR IS NOW PERMANENTLY PARKED WITH NO POWER STEERING. I BELIEVE THERE IS A DESIGN OR MANUFACTURING DEFECT WITH THE HOSE THAT KEEPS COMING OFF. PUTTING IT BACK ON IS NOT AN ACCEPTABLE FORM OF REPAIR. IT DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM AND IT ENDANGERS OUR LIFE.

MY DURANGO HAS HAD MANY PROBLEMS WHEN TRYING TO START IT SINCE I INITIALLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I HAVE TAKEN IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT 7 TIMES TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY IT WON'T START ON MANY OCCASIONS. I WILL ALSO START AND THEN SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY. IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND EVEN AFTER GETTING THE R09 FUEL PUMP RELAY FIX I STILL HAVE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. AFTER DOING COUNTLESS HOURS OF RESEARCH IT APPEARS IT IS THE ACTUAL TIPM THAT HAS GONE BAD AND WILL COST ME AROUND 1500$ IT IS A DISGRACE THAT DODGE WILL NOT JUST RECALL THE BAD TIPM. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ONLINE WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS ME AND I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT IF YOU ALL WILL LOOK INTO THIS MORE CONSIDERING HOW DANGEROUS IT IS ESPECIALLY IF DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AND YOUR VEHICLE JUST SHUTS DOWN FOR NO APPARENT REASON WHICH IS ONE OF THE SYMPTOMS OF THIS BAD TIPM. THANK YOU

MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO IS HAS BEEN GIVING ME INTERMITTENT FITS FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW. SOMETIMES I CAN CRANK IT OTHER TIMES NOT. SOMETIMES IT WILL CRANK AND RUN FINE THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN A BIG RED Z FLASHES ON MY DASH, THE ENGINE FEELS LIKE IT DIES, I LOSE POWER AN MANY OF THE LIGHTS ON MY SPEEDOMETER COME ON, SUCH AS ANTI SKID LIGHT, ETC. THE ONLY THING I CAN DO IS PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURN IT OFF AND BACK ON. WHEN I RESTART IT EVERYTHING CLEARS UP AND IS FINE. IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE AS OF LATE AND NEITHER MY MECHANIC NOR THE LOCAL DODGE DEALER FULLY UNDERSTAND WHY THE TRUCK IS ACTING POSSESSED!! I AM WORRIED THAT IT WILL SHUT DOWN TRYING TO GO UP A BRIDGE OR AROUND A SHARP TURN AND I WILL GET IN A WRECK. MY MECHANIC SAID THE DODGE FORUMS ARE SHOUTING BAD TIPM MODULES SO I WENT ONLINE TO RESEARCH AND FOUND THE ARTICLE THAT YOU ARE LISTED IN. MY MECHANIC SAID IF THEY CAN FIND A TIPM IS MAY COST ME $1,200 TO REPLACE. I DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY LAYING AROUND SO IS THERE ANY HELP AVAILABLE FOR ME TO GET THIS FIXED? ARE THERE USED TIPM'S OR DODGE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE?
