2011 DODGE DURANGO Engine Problems

I was in a blizzard a few days ago on the freeway & got caught in a ditch, but thankfully got out. I wasn’t going that fast & couldn’t due to not being able to see through the snow well so I can drive safely. In order not to crash because there were semi trucks around, I had to whip the steering wheel along with the weight of the car on the snow in order not to crash due to the car being big & it was sliding pretty heavy & somehow a couple things went out of wack after turning my steering wheel. Definitely a scary experience. It is very hard to turn out of no where, as well it’s rare at times when it turns just a little smoothly. Also, once when first pulling off, it makes a consecutive clicking noise coming from or by the tires. When I give it acceleration while turning, as well, it makes that clicking sound. Then there’s just something about the engine or the drive train that sounds off. I’m still learning as I go about fixing what needs to be done.

Chrysler has had a known issue with the ignition module nodes on its Dodge vehicles since 2013. However, they have failed to issue a recall on the 2011 and higher Dodge vehicles. My ignition module node is going out in my vehicle and the dealership will not recognize this as any kind of recall and is making me pay for the reprogramming and for the keys to be replaced in addition to a car rental. I am having to pay $800. This is a well-known and documented ongoing Nationwide safety issue. Dodge employees have received the attached bulletin making them aware of this known issue but has failed to initiate a recall. According to their attached safety recall report for previous Dodge years, The Ignition Node (WIN) Module on your vehicle may have unintentional movement of the Frequency Operated Button Ignition Key (FOBIK) from the “ON” to the “Accessory” position while driving. This could cause unintended engine shut off and increase the risk of a crash.

Engine stopped while driving and steering was pulling to the right..was able to start back up and park it..has p0303 code..and p0300 code pending...checked number 3 spark plugs. And engine seems to be burning oil..cleaned up spark plugs and white smoke is coming out driver side exhaust pipe..will try changing pvc valve next..

This SUV has had 2 recalls for the same fuel system relay problem, And now after approximately 2or3 yrs ago, and now it's doing the same exact thing again, you'll be driving down the road and it will just shut off and a red lighting built will show up, lucky we had a safe place to pull off the road and get stopped, but this is a very dangerous situation for my wife and kids to be in

Car dies while driving at speed. Also will die at low speeds such as when turning or parking or waiting at a stop light. Sometimes have to wait before restart if dies at speed. If dies at low speed will start right back up. Dealer says no codes. Even when it died while on the techs computer he could not see a problem. These cars have been notorious for electrical problems due to Totally Integrated Power Module. Fuel relay recall did not solve the issue.

While driving without notice transmission light flashes and the 2011 Dodge Durango will not shift out of gear. I have had this problem in the past and told dealer but they always say they have no codes and on test drive cant confirm the issue. The first time it happened was around the 50 000 mile mark I thought nothing of it back then as I restarted the car it went away. Over the years it go worst to the point that it would happen at least once or multiple times during my daily commute it I told the dealership about it but no codes and they said on a test run no problems. I stopped driving the car in 2019 because it was too dangerous to drive daily especially in traffic due to the car unable to shift gears left me stranded in the middle of the freeway many times waiting to restart car and car would behave normal until the transmission light comes on where i have to power off durango and restart where ever it happens freeway stop signs lights or where ever it decides to happen. I want to get this car running again but dont have the money to fix an issue that i had when it was still covered by the extended warranty and now i have to pay out of pocket because im over the milage so this car has been sitting and i feel as i been ripped off because of al the issues. Im end up dying in this thing if i take it out. Ive donr the recalls and now i see another recall for the same issue that they said they fixed is been reissued im certain all of the issues is tied to the computer unit it i already had one replaced in this car because when i took it for the alternator issue when the car just died with no warning they told me it was fried. All the recall issues that have been mandated are all the issues i had car stalling not starting battery dead and drained fuel relay power module no power how is this not a lemon. this car is a saftey issue on so many levels. Im now trying to get this car running and im still having the same issues i have 129000 miles on it now

Started idling rough and jerking when accelerating from a complete stop (traffic lights, intersections, etc) and when accelerating after braking in traffic.

Vehicle continues to die while driving. Fortunately the vehicle dies when slowing down to a stop or turn. It has been recalled for this twice.

The engine valve stem failed prematurely due to poor quality manufacturing. Due to this low quality product it has created low compression in the engine. This has triggered multiple codes such as misfire, ETC, and has affected the acceleration of the vehicle as well as performance and at times from even starting. My family's safety has been put at risk due to stalling of the vehicle in traffic.This was inspected by a proper mechanic who looked into my engine with a camera and used diagnostic tools. There was no lights active during fault..

My cars fuel pump is being recalled which is causing starting issues and at times the car wont start. When driving the car it feels a bit of a lag or a loss in power. i have called for the recall parts to be fixed at the dealer for months now. they claim there is part issues or shipping issues on the parts. This an important part needs to be fixed and may cause more damage in the future to the engine if not fixed in a timely manner.

Car keeps stalling when pressing on the brake. even after the recall fix. Was only happening occasionally now more often. Happened on the expressway

The contact owns a 2011 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds and making a turn or depressing the brake pedal, the vehicle would stall without warning. The contact stated that after each failure, the vehicle would be restarted and operate as designed. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed; however, the mechanic was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but offered no assistance. The failure mileage was 128,450.

Mileage: 128,450

All current recalls have been performed on this vehicle. While making left and right hand turns after coasting down from a highway speed (55MPH or greater) the vehicle will stall. We will loose all power steering and brakes. No warning lights come on and everything appears normal except the engine is not running. Something in the fuel or electrical system is intermittently failing. I suspect it to be a "Dumb" device. Something that is told to turn on or off but there is no feedback to the computer to set a code when it fails. The vehicle is available for inspection at any time. This started occurring after one of the fuel pump relay recalls. It happens at random and is hard to duplicate, while we do have video of it, the dealer has been unable to duplicate it. The vehicle shows no codes, or anything wrong when it happens. Once the vehicle is stopped, shifted back into park, it will restart and run just fine. This has placed us in unsafe conditions in the middle of the opposing lane, in a turn, trying to restart the vehicle before another car comes around the turn. It is also hard to steer and stop a large SUV when power steering and brakes have been lost. There have been several close calls of getting the vehicle stopped prior to going off the road. The dealer has checked the vehicle over with no solution found for the issue. There has never been any warning lights associated with the vehicle stalling while driving. The vehicle does not know anything is wrong.

The contact owns a 2011 Dodge Durango. The contact stated while driving 10 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power and stalled. After a few minutes the contact was able to restart the vehicle and continued driving however, the failure persisted. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that unknown seals in the engine needed to be replaced. The seals were replaced however, the failure recurred. The dealer inspected the vehicle and replaced the wiring harness and the water pump to fix the failure. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

The dealership sold wrecked vehicle without fixing the engine only the body of vehicle was repaired. Engine failure truck cut off while in traffic almost hit another vehicle. Yes the vehicle was repaired @my own experiences, yes the engine light was on ps the vehicle was crash a second time @jerry ulm dodge 2966 N. Dale Mabry

TRANSMISSION COOLER IS LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID EVERYWHERE AND THE TRUCK LOST POWER ON THE HIGHWAY IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC THE ENGINE STARTED TO REV AND THE TRUCK JUST SLOWED TO A STOP WITH SEMI TRUCKS FLYING PAST IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY

MY DURANGO HIT 130K MILES AND THE RPM WHERE GETTING TO ALMOST 5K BEFORE SHIFTING AND THIS WOULD HAPPEN ON FREEWAY AND IN TOWN . THEN A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON A P306 CODE IS WHAT IT WAS GIVING ME . THAT'S A CYLINDER NUMBER 6 MISFIRE SO I HAD ALL PLUGS AN NEW COIL ON CYLINDER 6 AND PUT BRAND NEW INJECTORS IN AND IT RAN GOOD FOR ABOUT 5K MILES AND IT HAPPENS AGAIN SAME P306 . I'VE REPLACED PLUGS AGAIN AND SAME PROBLEM . MY DURANGO IS A 3.6 I'VE READ A LOT ON THIS AND WAS WONDERING IF THIS IS ONE THAT HAS DEFECTIVE L HEAD ? I'VE PUT SO MUCH MONEY IN THIS SUV IDK WHAT ELSE IT IS I CANT DRIVE IT FOR TO LONG BEFORE ITS STARTS THE MISFIRE AGAIN .

Mileage: 132,000

NOTICED A "TAPPING" NOISE COMING FROM ENGINE ON RIGHT DRIVER SIDE. ACCELERATION OF THE VEHICLE WAS INTERMITTENTLY AFFECTED. TAPPING NOISE WOULD GET LOUDER AT IDLE AND VEHICLE SEEMED TO BE INCREASINGLY MISFIRING AT TIMES. THIS ISSUE AFFECTED DRIVABILITY OF THE VEHICLE ESPECIALLY IN HEAVY HIGHWAY TRAFFIC. THE DIAGNOSED PROBLEM: CYLINDER 3 MISSFIRE/SEIZED LIFTER ROLLER, ULTIMATELY LEADING TO CAMSHAFT DAMAGE. AFTER REVIEW/INTERNET SEARCHING, APPARENTLY THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN 5.7L HEMI ENGINES AND ATTRIBUTED TO EXCESSIVE IDLING. I NEVER HAD ISSUES WITH MY HEMI UNTIL MOVING TO VIRGINIA AND SUBSEQUENTLY SITTING IN TRAFFIC FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME ON I-95 (EXCESSIVE IDLING). IF THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, WHY ARE CONSUMERS NOT MADE AWARE AND MOREOVER, WHY HAS THERE NOT BEEN A RECALL ISSUED TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM? THIS ISSUE SEEMS TO SPAN ALL MAKES AND MODELS OF VEHICLES THAT USE 5.7L HEMIS, SPECIFICALLY DODGE MANUFACTURED VEHICLES.

Mileage: 143,000

MY 2011 DODGE DURANGO ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. THE FIRST TWO TIMES IT HAPPENED EXITING THE SAME EXIT ON A RIGHT SHARP TURN AT THE SAME PART OF THE TURN. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND I HAD TO FORCE ALL MY WEIGHT TO TURN IT AND PULL OFF TO THE SHOULDER AVOIDING GETTING HIT FROM BEHIND AND THE SIDE. DODGE DEALER CLAIMED NOTHING WAS WRONG BUT WANTED TO KEEP CAR TO INVESTIGATE. I FILED A COMPLAINT AND OPENED A CASE NUMBER WITH CHRYSLER CORPORATION. THERE WAS A RECALL WITH FIRST OWNER FOR THIS HAPPENING AND IT WAS SUPPOSIVELY FIXED, I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM WAS NOT ENTIRELY FIXED. I AVOIDED THAT EXIT THINKING I TEMPORARILY TOOK CARE OF THE PROBLEM. THIRD TIME MY ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING WAS ON A LEFT HAND TURN. NO ONE WAS BEHIND US SO WE AVOIDED BEING REAR ENDED. CAR WAS PLACED IN NEUTRAL AND MANUALLY RESTARTED. I CALLED CHRYSLER AGAIN USING SAME CASE NUMBER FROM BEFORE BUT I WAS TOLD THERES NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE BECAUSE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. 4TH AND 5TH TIME MY ENGINE SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING HAPPENED TODAY , FIRST WAS AT A STOP IN TRAFFIC, NO TURN. I PRESS GAS AND REALIZED MY ENGINE WAS OFF WHILE ELECTRICAL STAYS ON, SO MY AIR CONDITIONER AND RADIO WEREN'T EFFECTED. AND LAST I TURNED RIGHT INTO A DRIVE WAY AT WORK, ENGINE TURNED OFF, STEERING WHEEL LOCKED. I HAD TO PLACE IN PARK AND RESTART MY CAR. THERE IS A DEFECT WITH THIS VEHICLE THAT CHRYSLER NEEDS TO FIX. THE FIRST TWO TIMES HAPPENED ON A FREEWAY EXIT. I MAY NOT BE SO LUCKY NEXT TIME. THIS IS OUR FAMILY CAR THAT MY CHILDREN RIDE IN AND CHRYSLER DOESNT WANT TO HELP WITH PROBLEM. I DON'T MIND PITCHING IN TO HELP PROBLEM. I TRIED TRADING IN TO DODGE BUT DIDNT HAVE DOWN PAYMENT FOR NEW ONE.

VEHICLE DEVELOPED A RANDOM MISFIRE UNDER LOAD. MISFIRE IS INTERMITTENT, CAUSING DRIVABILITY ISSUES. POSES AS A POTENTIAL DRIVING HAZARD WHEN MANEUVERING AROUND TOWN OR ON THE HIGHWAY. FOUND OUT IT WAS COMMON FOR THE CAM AND LIFTERS TO FAIL AND THE V8 HEMIS FROM 2011-2012 ON ALL PLATFORMS.

THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES ALREADY NOT EVERYDAY BUT I WOULD SAY AT LEAST 4-5 TIMES A YEAR. WE ARE DRIVING JUST NORMAL DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WE HAVE NO STEERING LOSE ALL POWER HAVE TO COME TO A STOP AND RESTART VEHICLE. THE MOST RECENT TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED LUCKILY WE WERE AT A STOP LIGHT AND ENGINE JUST SHUT OFF. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO A MECHANIC PUT HIS SCAN TOOL ON IT NOTHING CAME UP. BATTERY IS BRAND NEW HAS BEEN TESTED ALTERNATOR TEST GOOD. MECHANIC SUGGESTED COMPUTER PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD DODGE NEEDS TO LOOK INTO.

I BOUGHT A CAR FROM JIM PEACH FORD IN BREWTON ALABAMA FROM A GUY NAMED REGGIE I I WANT TO GET MY OIL CHANGE AND ME AND THE MECHANIC NOTICED THAT THE KNOCKING NOISE GOT LOUDER AND AS I DROVE IT FOR A FEW WEEKS IT STARTED TO SHAKE VERY BAD TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT AND I WOULD HAVE TO BUY A FURNACE ENGINE FOR $8000

I HAVE TO PUSH THE IGNITION BUTTON TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND IT RUNS FINE. IT'S SCARY TO THINK THAT YOUR VEHICLE CAN JUST SHUT IT'S OFF WITHOUT ANY WARNING. THE DEALERSHIP DOESN'T HAVE AN EXPLANATION AND THERE IS NO RECALL. HOWEVER; THERE ARE MULTIPLE PEOPLE VIA THE INTERNET THAT HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS SAME EVENT. I THINK FODGE SHOULD BE LOOKING INTO THIS ISSUE. FUEL RELATED..ELECTRICAL?? LOTS OF QUESTIONS, BUT SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE!!! SCARED FOR MY SAFETY!!

I AM FILING A COMPLAINT OR THE PEOPLE HANDLING THE RECALL REIMBURSEMENT. I SENT IT IN ON SEPT 7TH AND NOW 90 DAYS LATER, 12 CALLS, PUT ON HOLD FOR 30 MINS EACH, AND NO ONE KNOWING ANYTHING. STILL NO ANSWER ON MY REFUND. WAS TOLD ON DAY 88 THAT THEY NEEDED SOMETHING ELSE AND NOW NO ONE CAN EVER ANSWER WHAT IT IS THEY NEED. SUPPOSEDLY THE CK IS CUT BUT NOT MAILED AND IT HAS BEEN LIKE THAT SINCE NOV. I ALSO SENT IN PAPER WORK FOR MY PCM WHICH THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO FIND AND I JUST GAVE UP ON THAT 1500 DOLLAR REPAIR. MY PCM HAS WENT OUT SEVERAL TIMES AND ITS ONLY WHEN SOMETHING GOES OUT ON MY CAR. HOWEVER I AM TRYING TO GET THE PROBLEM SOLVED ON GETTING MY REFUND FOR THE RECALL FIRST. IT HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE WITH DODGE. NEVER TALK TO MORE PEOPLE THAT PLACED YOU ON HOLD AND DO NOT KNOW ANYTHING. PLEASE HELP THEY JUST GIVE YOU THE RUN AROUND.

WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND SLOWING DOWN TO STOP OR EXIT THE ROAD VIA OFF RAMP OR TURN, THE VEHICLE WILL RANDOMLY STALL CAUSING BRAKES AND STEERING TO BECOME NON-RESPONSIVE. THERE IS NO WARNING PRIOR TO VEHICLE SHUTTING DOWN. IT HAPPENS SUDDENLY AND RANDOMLY. IT ALWAYS APPEARS TO BE WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO EXIT A ROAD OR TAKE A TURN. I HAVE TO COAST THE VEHICLE UNTIL IT STOPS AND PUT IT INTO PARK OR NEUTRAL TO START IT AGAIN. IT WORKS FINE UNTIL THE NEXT TIME. IT HAS HAPPENED SIX TIMES IN THE LAST MONTH.

SEVERAL MONTHS AGO MY DODGE DURANGO BEGAN LEAKING FLUID. AFTER SOME TAKING MY FRONT END APART I HAVE DETERMINED IT TO BE THE A/C CONDENSER-TRANSMISSION COOLER ASSEMBLY. DURING MY RESEARCH FOR DIAGNOSING THIS PROBLEM, I DISCOVERED DOZENS OF YOUTUBE VIDEOS OF OTHER PEOPLE SUFFERING THE SAME EXACT LEAK, IN THE SAME EXACT PLACE ON THE SAME EXACT MAKE AND MODEL OF A/C CONDENSER/TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER UNIT. IT IS OBVIOUS TO ME THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW WITH THIS PART.

CAR BEGAN MISFIRING WHILE DRIVING, AND THEN WOULD NOT MOVE ONCE STOPPED AND THEN PUT BACK INTO GEAR. ENGINE LIGHT AND FCW INDICATORS CAME ON. INITIAL DIAGNOSIS WAS TO REPLACE TWO SENSORS. PROBLEM RETURNED AFTER REPLACEMENT. NEXT DIAGNOSIS WAS TO REPLACE ALL 16 SPARK PLUGS WITH BOOTS. STILL DID NOT SOLVE PROBLEM. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS CHECKED TO FIND ANY LEAKS, NONE WERE FOUND, BUT A NEW CODE ORIGINATED TO RE-FLASH COMPUTER. COMPUTER WAS PULLED AND FOUND TO BE TAKING ON WATER AND CORRODING TERMINALS. COMPUTER WAS CLEANED AND RE-SEALED TO FIX PROBLEM. BUT COMPUTER IS LIKELY TO TAKE ON MORE WATER AND CORRODE AGAIN. TOTAL REPAIR WAS OVER 1600.00 AND 20 DAYS IN SHOP. INCLUDED DOCUMENT DOES NOT INCLUDE INITIAL SENSORS AND PLUG REPLACEMENT. MECHANIC INDICATED THAT BASED ON OBSERVATION, WIRES CONNECTING TO COMPUTER HAD BEEN WORKED ON IN THE PAST, LIKELY TO ADDRESS SIMILAR PROBLEM

FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS THE CAR WILL AUTOMATICALLY STOP WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND IN THE STREET. I HAVE TAKEN THE CARE TO THE SHOP AND THEY CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR, BUT THE CARE STILL STALL WHEN DRIVING.

CAR HAS BEEN STALLING BUT THEN STARTING RIGHT BACK UP FOR NO REASON FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS NOW. NOT ALL THE TIME BUT WHEN I STEP ON THE BRAKES OR MAKE A SLIGHT TURN.

THE ALTERNATOR CAUSES MY TRUCK TO STALL AT TIMES, AND NOT START AT OTHER TIMES, I HAVE GONE THROUGH TWO BATTERIES AS A RESULT OF THIS. IT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT WHILE DRIVING, I COULD TELL THAT IT WAS SLUGGISH, AND THIS MORNING WOULDN'T START, THEN, NEXT THING YOU KNOW, IT STARTS.

Mileage: 127,000

ENGINE STALLING WHILE DRIVING, SPECIALLY WHILE TAKING A TURN. THIS CAUSE LOSS OF ELECTRICAL POWER IN THE CAR INCLUDING THE BRAKES. THIS HAS BEEN HAPENNING IN THE LAST TWO YEARS CAUSING A BIG RISK OF LOSING MY LIFE IN A CRASH. THE CAR DEALER AUTOCENTRO TOLD ME THAT THERE IS NO RECALL FOR MY CAR IN THIS MATTER. THIS MAKES MY CAR VERY DANGEROUS AND IMPOSSIBLE TO SELL, I NEED HELP.

TODAY'S DATE IS APRIL 10, 2018. OUR 2011 DODGE DURANGO CITADEL BEGAN STALLING AND THE ENGINE SHUTTING OFF WITHOUT WARNING ON FEBRUARY 25, 2018. IT HAPPENED AGAIN ON APRIL 8TH, 2018 AND THEN AGAIN ON APRIL 9, 2018. EACH TIME IT HAS HAPPENED, THERE IS NO WARNING. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED MY WIFE WAS MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN AND ALMOST ENDED UP IN A HEAD-ON COLLISION. THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED, I WAS MAKING A STOP AFTER GETTING OFF AN EXIT RAMP. AND THE MOST RECENT TIME, 4/9/18, MY WIFE WAS DRIVING DOWN A HILL AND COMING TO A STOP AT AN INTERSECTION. THE LAST TWO TIMES WE HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS. THE VEHICLE LOSES ALL POWER, INCLUDING BRAKES AND POWER STEERING, WHICH PROVES A LITTLE CHALLENGING IF MAKING A TURN INTO TRAFFIC. I CALLED CHRYSLER IN THE US BUT BECAUSE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED AND WAS NOT AWARE THAT IT WAS ORIGINALLY SHIPPED AND TITLED IN CANADA, THE US COMPANY PROVED NOT TO BE HELPFUL. ULTIMATELY, I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS DUE TO THE POTENTIAL FOR SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES. I HAVE OWNED 4-5 CHRYSLER PRODUCTS (2005 AND 2011 DODGE DURANGOS, 2003 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE AND 2007 CHRYSLER ASPEN. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME WITH AN ENGINE ISSUE AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, POOR CUSTOMVER SERVICE. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND IT COULD BE ANYTHING FROM THE TPIM CONTROL MODULE, THE ALTERNATOR, THE FUEL PUMP RELAY, ETC.

WHILE DRIVING AFTER A 30 MINUTE COMMUTE AND ENTERING STOP AND GO DOWNTOWN MORNING COMMUTE TRAFFIC, (SLOW, DRIVING ON CITY STREETS BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC) MY DURANGO BEGAN TO SMOKE FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT INTO THE CABIN. NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON DURING THE ENTIRE EXPERIENCE. ALL TEMP GAUGES SHOWED NORMAL. THE CAR BECAME INCREASINGLY HARD TO DRIVE, FEELING TRANSMISSION SLIPPAGE. MORE SMOKE CAME FROM OUT OF ALL SIDES OF THE HOOD. UPON EXITING THE VEHICLE AND CHECKING THE HOOD, I COULD SEE FLUID COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT ENGINE COMPARTMENT - TOWARDS THE FRONT OF THE CAR. WHEN I LIFTED THE HOOD, THE ENGINE WAS FULLY INVOLVED IN FLAMES. I DROPPED THE HOOD CLOSED AND RAN TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STREET. WITHING 15 MINUTES THE ENTIRE FRONT END OF THE CAR WAS BURNED OUT, HOOD AND VARIOUS OTHER PARTS MELTED. CAR HAD TO BE TOTALED BY THE INSURANCE AGENCY.

THE ENGINE IS MISFIRING WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. I HAD THE VERY SAME ISSUE APPROXIMATELY 6 MONTHS AGO. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAMSHAFT AND LIFTERS REPLACED. LUCKILY IT WAS COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY BECAUSE THE REPAIR COSTED OVER $3000. THE ISSUE HAS STARTED AGAIN AND UNFORTUNATELY THE VEHICLE IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. I DO NOT HAVE $3000 TO GET THIS REOCCURRING PROBLEM FIXED.

FUEL RELAY RECALL -- NO PROBLEMS BEFORE REPLACEMENT, REPLACED IN DEC 2015 AND SINCE HAVE HAD CAR STALL INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING KIDS TO SCHOOL 5 TIMES. THE THREE MOST RECENT HAPPENING AT A MORE FREQUENT BASIS -- AND IN LAST 90 DAYS. I LOSE TOTAL POWER OF THE CAR WHILE DRIVING, IT GOES INTO A STALL AND WE HAVE TO PULL OVER, LET IT SIT FOR !10 MINUTES AND IT WILL RESTART AND GO. TYPICALLY IT IS WHEN I AM SLOWING DOWN AND GOING INTO A TURN OR BIGGER CURVE ON THE ROAD. I HAVE TAKEN BACK TO DODGE TO ASK THEM TO FIX -- DIOGNOSTICS TELLS THEM NOTHING WRONG AND THEY WILL NOT REPLACED THE ALREADY RECALLED (AND REPLACED) PART AS THEY SAY THEY CANNOT CONFIRM IT IS THE CAUSE. MEANWHILE, I AM DRIVING A CAR THAT MAY STALL AT ANYTIME EVEN THOUGH DEALERSHIP CANNOT FIND ON DIOGNOSTIC TESTS.

IT WAS HOT SO PROCEEDED TO ROW DOWN WINDOWS AND WAS NOT ABLE TO, ALMOST LIKE LOST POWER.. GOT OFF FREEWAY ( THANK GOD) AND GOT TO A STOP IN A SAFE PLACE, SMELT SOMETHING BURNING, TURNED OFF CAR WHEN DID SO WINDSHIELD WIPERS WENT CRAZY AND THEN SAW SMOKE COMING FROM ENGINE. WAITED FOR AAA IN MEAN TIME TRIED TO START CAR BACK UP AND WOULDN'T BUDGE CLICKING SOUND (LIKE ALTENATOR) TRYING TO START CAR THEN IT COMPLETELY SHUT OFF, COMPLETELY DEAD!!!

DRIVING HOME FROM A FAMILY TRIP 220 MILES AWAY MY 2011 DURANGO DASH LIGHTS AND GAGES WENT HAYWIRE FLICKERING ON AND OFF, WINDOWS WOULD NOT ROLL DOWN, AC WENT OUT BUT HEAT WAS BLOWING, LOUD HIGH PITCH SOUND CAME FROM THE ENGINE, RADIO WENT OUT, WIPERS GOING ON FULL SPEED AND COULD NOT TURN THEM OFF. FINALLY WE LOST POWER STEERING, PARKED AND THE CAR SHOOK BAD AS WE TURNED IT OFF. WENT TO TURN ON AND NOTHING IT WOULDN'T START. AAA CAME OUT SAID ALTERNATOR WAS TOAST, REPLACED THAT THEN IT SAID BATTERY WAS DEAD,( COULDNT EVEN GET THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL TO TOW), SO REPLACED THAT. WAS ABLE TO DRIVE FOR ABOUT 3 MILES AND IT STARTED ALL OVER AGAIN BUT THIS TIME A BAD SMELL (BURNING SMELL) CAME FROM UNDER THE PASSENGERS SEAT, BATTERY WAS MAKING A SOUND AND WAS EXTREMELY HOT! I HAD MY 3 LITTLE KIDS IN THE CAR WITH ME AND THIS THING COULD HAVE BLOWN SO WE HAD IT TOWED! IT HAS 79000 MILES ON IT, NEVER HAD AN ISSUE, AND JUST HAD THE RECALL DONE ABOUT 2 WEEKS PRIOR THAT SUPPOSEDLY PREVENTS THIS! THE DEALERSHIP HAS IT NOW. IVE JUST DUMPED $700+ AND IT DIDNT EVEN FIX IT! THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT FOR MY FAMILY AND OTHERS OR WORSE CAUGHT ON FIRE WITH US IN IT! THIS WAS MY FIRST DODGE AND WILL BE MY LAST ESPECIALLY IF DODGE DOES NOTHING TO FIX THIS!

WHEN DRIVING MY CAR THE ALTERNATOR FAILED AND STARTED SMOKING WITHOUT WARNING. THE CAR LOST ALL POWER LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO COST TO SAFELY AND GET OFF THE ROAD. MY PROBLEM IS I SEEN A RECALL FOR THIS VERY ISSUE BUT MY VIN WAS NOT IN THE RECALL. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE AS MY FAILURE WAS EXACTLY WHAT THE RECALL IS FOR. NOT ONLY DID MY ALTERNATOR SHORT OUT AND ALMOST CATCH FIRE IT FRIED MY PCM. NOW IT SITS IN THE SHOP AND IS COSTING ME ALMOST $1500 TO FIX. HOW IS IT OK FOR THEM TO ONLY RECALL SOME CARS AND MINE HAS THE EXACT SAME SAFETY RECALL BUT MY VIN IS NOT COVERED

ELECTRICAL CHARGING SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING AND I NOTICED THERE WAS SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE HOOD. PULLED INTO A DRIVEWAY AND OPENED THE HOOD AND THE ALTERNATOR WAS SMOKING. I TOOK PICTURES OF THIS WHICH ARE ON MY PHONE IF NEEDED. IT TOOK OUT THE BATTERY AS WELL RESULTING IN ME HAVING TO LEAVE THE VEHICLE THERE BECAUSE ALL SYSTEMS WERE OUT.

VEHICLE WAS PARKED AT WORK. I GOT OFF WORK CAME TO VEHICLE ENTERED AND STARTED ENGINE AFTER ABOUT 1 MINUTE, A BUZZING SOUND CAME FROM UNDER THE DASH, THEN I BEGAN TO SMELL SMOKE LIKE BURNING WIRES OR SOMETHING ELECTRICAL UNDER THE DASH. THEN I SAW SMOKE COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT (UNDER THE VEHICLES FRONT HOOD). BY THIS TIME ABOUT 1 MINUTE HAD PASSED WITH THE ENGINE IDLING IN PARK. I OPENED THE HOOD AND LOOKED IN TO SEE THAT THE ALTERNATOR WAS SMOKING AND RED HOT INSIDE. I TRIED TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE, BUT NO RESPONSE FROM THE IGNITION BUTTON, THEN CRAZY ELECTRICAL THINGS HAPPENED WITH LIGHTS DASH WIPERS AND ETC., THEN THE ENGINE DIED, AND THERE WAS NOT ANY POWER OR BATTERY EVERYTHING WAS DEAD. I AM GLAD I WAS NOT OUT ON THE FREEWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED, OR HAD THE FAMILY WITH ME. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AUBURN TRANSMISSION AND AUTO REPAIR. PH. (253)737-5913 IT IS MY BELIEF THAT THE ALTERNATOR WENT TO A DEAD SHORT AND KILLED THE BATTERY SO FAST, IT WAS AMAZING TO SEE. I THOUGHT THERE WOULD BE SOME KIND OF FUSEABLE LINK TO PREVENT SUCH A THING FROM OCCURRING. THAT IS A MOST DANGEROUS DESIGN, FIRE PRONE.

ON JULY 3 I WAS DRIVING OUR VEHICLE ON A COUNTRY ROAD WHEN THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON SHORTLY AFTER PULLING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY. WE HAD BEEN ON VACATION AND FIGURED THE CAR HAD SAT FOR 10 DAYS WITHOUT BEING DRIVEN AND JUST NEEDED A CHARGE. THE LIGHT INDICATOR CAME AND WENT BEFORE THE CAR STARTED DOING WEIRD THINGS: HAZARD LIGHTS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, SEATBELT LIGHT, ETC. THE CAR QUICKLY LOST POWER AND EVERYTHING LOCKED UP LEAVING US STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF A GRAVEL ROAD. WE COULDN'T EVEN RELEASE THE KEYS FROM THE IGNITION. THERE WAS A BURNING SMELL AND THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED. THE ALTERNATOR WENT OUT, IN TURN BURNING UP THE EMS SYSTEM. THIS PART IS ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER. WE HAVE BEEN WITHOUT A CAR FOR OVER TWO WEEKS NOW. THE RECALL FOR THE ALTERNATOR WAS FOR A SMALLER AMP. OURS IS A 220AMP. THEY ARE TELLING US PRODUCTION OF THE PART MAY TAKE UP TO 10-12 MORE DAYS.

ON JUNE 14, 2017 I WAS DRIVING MY 2011 DODGE DURANGO HOME FROM WORK AND THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON WHILE I WAS ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. I EXITED THE HIGHWAY AND PULLED INTO A MALL PARKING LOT AND SUDDENLY THE INTERIOR TEMPERATURE OF THE CAR BECAME EXTREMELY HOT, SO HOT, I COULD NOT STAY INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. I STARTED TO SEE AND SMELL SMOKE, SO I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND OPENED THE HOOD; AS I IT OPENED THERE WAS A LARGE AMOUNT OF SMOKE AND I CLOSED IT TO SNUFF OUT ANY FIRES. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO MY MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD MY ALTERNATOR HAD GONE BAD. THE EXPLANATION I WAS GIVING WAS: THE SILICONE DIODES IN THE ALTERNATOR RECTIFIER BRIDGE MAY EXPERIENCE THERMAL FATIGUE DUE TO CYCLIC LOADING FROM THE ELECTRIC HYDRAULIC POWER STEERING (EHPS) SYSTEM, EVENTUALLY RESULTING IN NO OUTPUT, REDUCED OUTPUT, OR A FULLY SHORTED TO GROUND CONDITION. THESE FAILURE MODES VARY IN THEIR TIME TO FAILURE AND WARNING TO THE DRIVER. DEPENDING ON THE FAILURE MODE AND TIMING, SYSTEM VOLTAGE MAY DROP TO CRITICALLY LOW LEVELS, DISABLING SYSTEMS SUCH AS THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM/ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, ENGINE CONTROL MODULE/CENTRAL BODY CONTROLLER, OR A TOTAL VEHICLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHUT DOWN (IN THE EVENT OF A SHORT TO GROUND FAILURE MODE). I EXPERIENCED A TOTAL SYSTEM SHUT DOWN. THE ALTERNATOR NOT ONLY FAILED BUT SHORTED OUT MY BATTERY, FUSES AND COMPUTER MODULE. I CALLED DODGE CORPORATE AND ONLY RECEIVED AN APOLOGY.... DODGE HAS A RECALL P60 RECALL WHICH APPLIES TO 160AMP ALTERNATOR. THIS RECALL WAS NOT APPLICABLE TO MY VEHICLE BECAUSE IT HAS A 180 OR 220 AMP ALTERNATOR BUT IF IT IS FAILING LIKE THE 160AMP ALTERNATOR THEN DODGE SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEFECTIVE PART.

MAY 2017 MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING HER 2011 DODGE DURANGO WITH 68K WITH TWO KIDS IN THE CAR, THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN WENT COMPLETELY DEAD SHORTLY AFTER. WE GOT IT TO AN ELECTRICAL SHOP TO FIND THE BATTERY WAS DEAD AND THE 180 AMP ALTERNATOR HAD STOPPED OPERATING. AFTER SOME RESEARCHING I FOUND A RECALL (P60) AND IT ONLY APPLIED TO 160 AMP ALTERNATOR. I CALLED CHRYSLER (CASE #31556595) TO SEE IF THEY COULD HELP AND WAS DENIED. WE HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR WHICH COST ME $400.44. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.

Mileage: 68,000

MY BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. I WAS DRIVING 65 MPH DOWN RT 18 NORTH IN THE COLTS NECK AREA OF NJ. WITHIN 10 MINUTES AFTER THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON, MY CAR ACTED POSSESSED. THE STEERING LOCKED, BRAKES LOCKED, WIPERS CAME ON MOVING SLOWLY, THE HEAT CAME ON, ABS BRAKES LIGHT CAME ON, AND THE PARK ASSIST CAME ON. LUCKILY THERE WERE NO CARS DIRECTLY AROUND ME AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIFT TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD WHERE MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AND STOPPED ON ITS OWN. THE 180 AMP ALTERNATOR WENT AND ALSO FRIED MY PCM. I AM CURRENTLY PAYING OVER $200 TO RENT A CAR. I AM BEING TOLD MY BILL WILL BE ABOUT $2000 TO REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR AND PCM. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE AND A DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED AS THE 160 AMP ALTERNATOR IS ALREADY RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUES. DRIVING AT A HIGHWAY SPEED AND YOUR CAR SUDDENLY COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN CAN CAUSE A SERIOUS CRASH. THIS IS THE 3RD MAJOR ISSUE I'VE RAN INTO AS I ALSO HAD MY BATTERY DYING MULTIPLE TIMES DUE TO THE FUEL PUMP RELAY RECALL. ALSO, I LOST MY BRAKES SUDDENLY AND HAD TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THE BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE RECALL. I DO NOT THINK I WILL EVER BUY A DODGE AGAIN AS THEY DO NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ISSUES. I FEEL AS THOUGH THIS VEHICLE ISN'T SAFE TO DRIVE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HIS WIFE WAS DRIVING AT 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE POWER STEERING AND THE BRAKES ALSO FAILED TO FUNCTION. THE FAILURE RECURRED TEN TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF A YEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE REPLICATED BUT THE SOFTWARE RELATED TO THE RADIO AND THE HANDS FREE MODULE WERE UPDATED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD BE IN CONTACT WITH THE DEALER TO DETERMINE A REPAIR.

IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS I HAVE PAID OVER $3500 IN REPAIRS ON THE DODGE DURANGO. I WAS TOLD AND HAD TO REPLACE BOTH CATALYST CONVERTERS AND ALL 4 O2 SENSORS. THEN THE STARTER WENT OUT CAUSING ME TO REPLACE IT. NOW FOR THE 3RD TIME IN 3 WEEKS, I HAD TO HAVE MY VEHICLE TOWED AND NOW IT APPEARS THE ISSUE MAY BE THE ALTERNATOR. I NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2011 DODGE DURANGO 3.6L, 160 AMP ALTERNATORS AND I AM NOT SURE WHAT AMP MY ALTERNATOR IS BUT MY VEHICLE APPEARS TO HAVE ALL THE SAME ISSUES AS THE VEHICLES THAT WERE UNDER THE RECALL, YET MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL? I HAVE BEEN INCONVENIENCED FOR 3 WEEKS NOW HAVING TO GET RIDES TO AND FROM WORK AND HAVE HAD TO CANCEL DOCTOR APPOINTMENTS AND SCHOOL MEETINGS DUE TO THE FACT THAT BOTH MY HUSBAND AND I NEED A VEHICLE AND ARE HAVING TO SHARE 1 VEHICLE WITH 5 KIDS. OUR MOST RECENT ISSUE OCCURRED ON EASTER SUNDAY WHILE TRAVELING WITH ALL OUR CHILDREN, THE BATTERY SIGNAL APPEARED ON OUR VEHICLE BEGAN SMOKING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. TO AVOID INJURY, WE HAVE HAD IT TOWED TO THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AGAIN FOR REVIEW. WE HAVE HAD 2 DIAGNOSTIC CHECKS GOING ON A 3RD AND NO ONE IS CATCHING ALL THE REPEATED ISSUES. WE HAVE TO REPLACE THE CATALYST CONVERTER 2 TIMES (NOVEMBER 2016 AND APRIL 2017), O2 SENSORS (NOVEMBER 2016), BATTERY (JANUARY 2017), STARTER (APRIL 2017) AND NOW OUR NEWEST ISSUE HAS YET TO BE REVEALED BUT IT APPEARS IT WILL BE THE ALTERNATOR (APRIL 2017). AT WHAT POINT WILL CHRYSLER TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL THE ISSUES WITH THE 2011 DODGE DURANGO. REIMBURSEMENT FOR ALL WE HAVE HAD TO PAY FOR FAULTY ISSUES WITH THE 2011 DODGE DURANGO WOULD BE APPRECIATED. ALL THESE ISSUES DEVELOPED AFTER THE FAULTY TIPM THAT WE HAVE PAID OUT OF POCKET FOR 2X AS WELL.

I WAS DRIVING IN THE CITY ON A VERY BUSY STREET WHEN THE CAR MADE A WEIRD SIREN NOISE; THEN MY SEATBELT LIGHTS WENT OFF, MY PARK ASSIST STARTED FLASHING, MY TRACTION CONTROL OTHER LIGHTS WERE FLASHING, THE RADIO FLASHED OFF AND ON, THEN WENT OUT. THEN MY WIPERS WENT ON, AND THEN I LOST POWER STEERING, BRAKES WERE NOT WORKING, AND THE CAR SLOWLY DIED. MY HAZARDS DIDN'T EVEN WORK, SO I ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. MY CAR DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF A VERY BUSY STREET AND I HAD NO HAZARDS TO WARN ANYONE! A VERY SCARY SITUATION TO HAVE ESPECIALLY WITH YOUR 12-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER IN THE CAR.

VERY UNCLEAR HOW MY DURANGO WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE MASS RECALL OF ALTERNATORS THAT IMMEDIATELY STOP WORKING AND START TO BURN. MINE DID JUST THIS, STOPPING MY VEHICLE IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC AND ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I ALSO SMELLED BURNING AND THERE WAS SMOKE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. IT WAS TOWED TO A NEARBY AUTO SHOP WHEREUPON THE ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED BUT THE VEHICLE STILL DID NOT OPERATE. IT WAS THEN TOWED TO GANLEY CHRYSLER DODGE AND THAT ALTERNATOR REMOVED AND ANOTHER PUT IN. THE VEHICLE ALSO INCURRED COSTLY REPAIRS TO THE COMPUTER (PCM) SYSTEM FAILING DUE TO THE ALTERNATOR. I DO NOT FEEL THIS IS A NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE AT 85K MILES. I HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY REFUSE TO ASSIST, CLAIMING I SHOULD NOT HAVE HAD IT REPAIRED BEFORE CALLING THEM. THE DEALERSHIP NEVER GAVE ME AN INDICATION THAT I SHOULD PROCEED THIS WAY.

WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAYS AND RURAL ROADS, ENGINE SHUTS OFF ABRUPTLY, CAUSING LOSS OF STEERING ASSIST AND ONLY A COUPLE BRAKE ACTUATIONS BEFORE BRAKE ASSIST IS LOST (OCCURRED BEFORE TIPM CAMPAIGN, STILL SHUTS OFF AFTER CAMPAIGN). TYPICALLY OCCURS DURING COASTING OR MILD BRAKING WHEN PREPARING TO ENTER A TURN (DOES NOT MATTER IF RIGHT OR LEFT TURN). NO "CHECK ENGINE," ALTERNATOR, OR OTHER WARNING LIGHTS APPEAR ON THE DASH (AS THEY WOULD IF THE ENGINE STALLED) -- IT IS AS IF IGNITION SWITCH WERE IMMEDIATELY TURNED OFF. OCCASIONALLY WHEN ENGINE SHUTS OFF, THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER GIVES A FORWARD COLLISION WARNING DISABLED WARNING (BUT THE FCW DOES NOT BEEP, ALERT, SIGNAL, ETC. BEFORE THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF, AND THERE WAS NO OBSTACLE TO SET OFF OR BLOCK THE FCW). SINCE ENGINE SEEMS TO SHUT OFF, THERE ARE NO CODES ACTIVE OR STORED AFTER THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF.

BUT THE CONSTANCY IS, MY CAR IS NOT DRIVABLE UNTIL NOW.

SAFETY ISSUE ON MY 2011 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING HOME AFTER WORK LATE ONE NIGHT, THE DURANGO STARTED ACTING UP LIKE IT WAS POSSESSED. THE LIGHTS WOULD GO ON AND OFF, THE WIPERS WENT ON AND WOULDN'T SHUT OFF, SEATS WENT BACK AND FORTH WHILE DRIVING!, RADIO, HEAT, AC. I WAS IN TRAFFIC AND FINALLY MANAGED TO MOVE OVER TO A SECURE LOCATION OUT OF HARMS WAY NO SOONER DID I PULL OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD THEN THE DODGE COMPLETELY DIED. I HAD TO COAST DOWN A HILL. TRIED TO TURN IT OVER AND NOTHING. NO LIGHTS NO RADIO NO NOTHING. IT WAS DEAD. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALER CLAIMED IT WAS THE BATTERY, INSTALLED A NEW ONE AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. FAST FORWARD TO LESS THAN 2 WEEKS LATER- SAME PROBLEM. DRIVING TO DROP OFF MY 5 YEAR OLD AND IT STARTS ACTING UP AGAIN COMPLETELY POSSESSED. HOW IS THIS SAFE? I MADE IT TO WORK WITH IT GOING CRAZY. AT LUNCH, I WENT TO START IT AND CHECK IT OUT. DEAD. BRAND NEW BATTERY DEAD. 400 BUCKS DOWN THE DRAIN- WHEN THAT WASN'T THE PROBLEM. NOT TO MENTION THE 200 BUCKS TO TOW. I BROUGHT IT TO A LITTLE SHOP AROUND THE CORNER AND THEY COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM AND TOWED IT BACK TO THE DEALER. AND THERE IT SITS. NO ONE CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT OVER THERE. IT IS REALLY PATHETIC. SO NOW ADD'L TOW CHARGES-$200, NO VEHICLE TO GET BACK AND FORTH TO WORK AND CHILD'S STROKE THERAPISTS, AND HAD TO BREAK DOWN AND PAY FOR A RENTAL. WHAT A JOKE THANKS DODGE. THEY ARE WELL AWARE OF THE TIPM ISSUES AND REFUSE TO RECALL ANY OF THEIR VEHICLES. THIS IS A HUGE HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. EVERYTHING JUST DIES.. THE ENGINE THE BRAKES DON'T WORK NOTHING. *TR

I HAD CAR TOWED TO LOCAL MECHANIC BECAUSE DEALERSHIP IS AND HOUR AWAY. HE SAID ALTERNATOR GAVE OUT. PUT NEW ALTERNATOR IN STILL NOTHING. 600 DOLLARS DOWN DRAIN. NOW I HAVE TO PAY TOWING TO GET TO DEALERSHIP WHICH WILL MEAN JUST MORE MONEY DOWN THE DRAIN WHICH I DON'T HAVE THE EXTRA MONEY AND USE THIS CAR FOR WK SO HOPEFULLY I DON'T LOSE MY JOB. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW I HAVE SAME EXACT PROBLEMS AS ANOTHER 2011 DURANGO UNDER RECALL BUT MINE AIN'T ONE OF THEM. DO YOU HAVE TO WAIT TILL SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILLED TO HAVE A RECALL. IF NONE OF THIS IS RESOLVED PROPERLY I WILL BE HIRING A LAWYER. I HAVE ONLY HAD VEHICLE FOR 2YRS.

I HAD A BATTERY LIGHT IN THE MORNING, BUT MY BATTERY WAS NEW. AS I WAS DRIVING MY AIR CONDITIONING STOPPED WORKING, MY RADIO SCREEN FLASHED, WENT OFF AND THE ENTIRE CAR DIED WHILE IN MOTION, I BARELY STOPPED IN TIME. THE ENGINE WOULDN'T EVEN TRY, AND ME AND MY TWO INFANT CHILDREN WERE STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY STREET IN 100 HEAT. THE POLICE OFFICER HAD TO HELP US, WE CALLED A TOW TRUCK TO TAKE US HOME. THE MECHANIC WHO LOOKED AT THE CAR SAID THE ALTERNATOR INTERNALLY GROUNDED AND FRIED THE COMPUTER AND THE BATTERY AND EXPLAINS THE BURNING SMELL JUST PRIOR TO THE CAR DYING.

THE VEHICLE STALLS WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING IT HAPPENS FREQUENTLY AND THERE IS NO FIX THAT HAS BEEN FOUND TO STOP THIS ISSUE. IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON STREETS AND THE HIGHWAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES.

Mileage: 44,000

WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY I A CHECK BATTERY LIGHT APPEARED ON MY DASH, I PLANNED ON CHECKING INTO IT AT THE UPCOMING GAS STATION WHICH WAS ABOUT 3 MILES AWAY, AS I APPROACHED THE OFFRAMP TO THE GAS STATION ALL KINDS OF CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS AND ABS AND YOU NAME IT STARTED SHOWING IN MY DASH FOLLOWED BY THE WIPERS AND NEXT THING YOU KNOW THE CAR DIES OUT. LUCKY FOR ME THERE WAS NO VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME BECAUSE I COULD NOT STEER OR BRAKE BECAUSE IT WAS VERY HARD OR LOCKED, I MANAGED TO PULL OVER JUST BEFORE THE GAS STATION AND SENSED THE SMELL OF BURNED WIRE, I NOTICED I WAS NOT COMPLETELY OFF THE ROAD SO I TRIED PUTTING VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL BUT IT WAS LOCKED IN PARK, ALSO MY KEY WAS STUCK IN THE IGNITION. LOCAL MECHANIC CHANGED THE BATTERY FIRST AND STILL HAD THE CHECK BATTERY LIGHT ON SO HE RECCOMENDED A NEW ALTERNATOR AS WELL WHICH I BOUGHT IMMEDIATELY, 900.00 LATER HERE I SIT WITH NEW ALTERNATOR AND BATERRY BUT STILL THE SAME PROBLEM WITH VEHICLE STALLING AND CHECK BATTERY LIGHT ON. DEALER SAYS MY VEHICLE IS NOT IN THE P60 RECALL EVEN THOUGH I HAVE/HAD THE SAME 160 AMP ALTERNATOR AS THE RECALLED VEHICLES. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WHICH CAN BECOME DEADLY IF NOT FIXED ASAP. IM SURE OF ONE THING, NEVER IN MY LIFE WILL ME OR MY FAMILY BUY A DODGE AGAIN.

ALTERNATOR FAILED OVER HEATING ELECTRICAL WIRING AND CAUSING BATTERY AND COMPUTER CHIP FAILURE. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED ON THE ROAD BUT I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO A PARKING LOT.

LOCAL AUTO REPAIR SHOP TESTED TIPM AND OTHER PARTS AND FOUND NOTHING BUT I'M STILL HAVING AN ISSUE STARTING MY CAR WHEN MY VEHICLE SITS LONGER THAN 5 HOURS. I AM NOT ABLE TO AFFORD NEW TIPM FOR $1200. I UNDERSTAND TIPM ISSUE IS PENDING CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT. I WOULD LIKE TO DODGE DEALER TO PROVIDE A SIGNIFICANT DISCOUNT SO THAT I CAN REPLACE TIPM OF MY VEHICLE.

2 DIFFERENT EPISODES OF UNEXPECTED VEHICLE SHUTDOWN/STALLING. FIRST EVENT WAS IN THE PROCESS OF A LEFT HAND TURN. VEHICLE SHUT DOWN PARTWAY THROUGH THE TURN. LOST ALL POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. STRUGGLED TO KEEP THE VEHICLE OUT OF THE DITCH. PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, AND IT RESTARTED IMMEDIATELY, AND CONTINUED HOME UNEVENTFULLY. APPROXIMATELY 2 MONTHS LATER, THE VEHICLE AGAIN UNEXPECTEDLY STALLED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, AND I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. AGAIN, IT RESTARTED UNEVENTFULLY AND I CONTINUED TO WORK. THE VEHICLE APPEARS TO BE WORKING NORMALLY OTHERWISE. ACCELERATION AND FUEL ECONOMY ARE NORMAL, AND THERE ARE NO EPISODES OF HESITATION/STUTTERING/MISSING. THERE WAS NO WARNING OF THE STALL EITHER TIME. BOTH EPISODES WERE APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES INTO MY DRIVE, AND THE VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN MOSTLY WARMED UP EACH TIME, BUT PERHAPS NOT ALL THE WAY. THE "EXACT" MOMENT OF THE STALL SEEMS TO COINCIDE WITH REMOVING MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE, ONCE TO TURN AND ONCE TO ACCELERATE. THE DURANGO WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER THAT SAME DAY EACH TIME, AND THERE WERE NO SIGNIFICANT ERROR CODES.

BOUGHT USED, HAD CAR LESS THAN 12 HOURS AND CAR STALLED WHILE DRIVING THRU 90 DEGREE CORNER ON HIGHWAY. LOSS OF POWER =NO POWER STEERING=ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. CALLED DEALER AND RETURNED NEXT DAY. THEY COMPLETED AN OUTSTANDING RECALL. PROBLEM NOT FIXED, HAD CAR BACK 7 DAYS, STALLED AGAIN TWICE IN ONE DAY. RETURNED TO DEALER, HAD IT A WEEK AND A HALF AND COULD NOT GET TO REPLICATE, CLEANED AND ADJUSTED FCW SENSOR. HAD CAR BACK 4 DAYS AND STALLED AGAIN. BACK TO SERVICE NOW FOR 2 WEEKS. MAKING PAYMENT ON CAR THAT I HAVEN'T HAD VERY FRUSTRATING. ALWAYS OCCURS GOING THRU CORNERS. VERY SCARY AND LUCKY NO TRAFFIC BEHIND ME SINCE I HAVE TO PUT IN PARK TO RESTART BY PUSH BUTTON IGNITION. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH DODGE AS I HAVE READ SEVERAL SIMILAR COMPLAINTS WITH NO RESOLUTION. THE DEALER IS NOW OFFERING TO TAKE CAR BACK AND TRADE FOR SOMETHING ELSE OR REFUND MY MONEY (LEMON LAW). I WAS IN LOVE WITH THIS CAR BUT DON'T KNOW THAT I WANT TO STICK WITH DODGE AFTER ALL OF THESE ISSUES. IT SEEMS THAT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN FORTUNATE NOT TO GET INTO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND I HOPE THAT DODGE FIGURES THIS OUT BEFORE SOMEONE LOSES THEIR LIFE.

THE CAR WILL CRANK BUT WILL NOT START. WHEN PRESSING THE PUSH TO START BUTTON IT TURNS OVER LIKE ITS GOING TO START BUT WILL NOT START. AFTER TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR RECALL WORK IT HAS THE SAME RE-OCCURING ISSUE. DODGE SAYS THAT IT WAS FIXED BUT I NOW HAVE TO TAKE IT TO AN INDEPENDANT REPAIR SHOP TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE.

THE VERY FIRST TIME WAS WHEN I WAS SLOWING DOWN FROM ABOUT 50MPH AT A CORNER IN ORDER TO TAKE A RIGHT HAND TURN, ABOUT HALFWAY THROUGH THE 90 CORNER I FEEL THAT THE STEERING HAS STIFFENED. LOOKING DOWN, I SEE THAT THE TACHOMETER NOW READS 0, AND THE ENGINE HAS DIED. I CANNOT SIMPLY SLIP IT INTO NEUTRAL AND THEN RESTART IT BECAUSE OF THE CAR HAS A KEYLESS PUSHBUTTON AND THE START BUTTON ONLY WORKS WITH THE DRIVE IN PARK. I THEN HAVE TO ARMSTRONG IT THROUGH THE REST OF THE CORNER. AS I FINISH UP THE TURN TO WHERE I CAN SAFELY STOP AND RESTART, I THEN PUSH THE BRAKES ONLY TO FIND THAT THEY ARE NOW TOTALLY STIFF BECAUSE THERE IS NOW NO VACUUM LEFT TO ASSIST. I END UP COSTING TO A STOP. THE CAR ALWAYS RESTARTS WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED AND HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 20 TIMES SINCE. IT IS ALWAYS IS WHEN SLOWING DOWN FROM ANYWHERE FROM 60 TO 30 MPH AND BEGINNING TO TAKE A RIGHT TURN. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS HAPPEN WHEN DOING A LEFT, BUT THERE ARE NOT TO MANY CHANCES TO DUPLICATE THIS SCENARIO DOING A LEFT. WE HAD THE ONE RECALL FOR THE FUEL PUMP DONE SO THAT SHOULD NOT BE IT. WE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS TO NUMEROUS DODGE DEALERS AND THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING. ONE SERVICE WRITER SAID THAT HE KNEW OF THE PROBLEM, KNEW THAT THE FUEL PUMP RECALL WAS NOT FIXING IT AND THAT THERE WAS GOING TO BE ANOTHER RECALL TO FIX THE PROBLEM. WHEN THIS HAPPENS UNEXPECTEDLY AS YOU ARE GOING 25 MPH IN A TRAFFIC ROUNDABOUT, IT IS ALL YOU CAN DO TO TRY TO STEER THROUGH THE REST OF THE TRAFFIC CIRCLE, ONLY TO FIND THAT YOUR POWER BRAKES ARE FAILED AS YOU TRY TO STOP TO RESTART. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS DEFECT THAT NEEDS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION, SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE KILLED WITH THIS HAPPENING, EITHER THE OCCUPANTS OF THE CAR, OR THE PUBLIC. WE ALSO HAVE A 2011 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE AND IT IS DOING THE EXACT SAME THING, BUT MORE BECAUSE IT IS DRIVEN MORE.

NOTHING HAPPENED UNTIL I CALLED CHRSYLER IN MICHIGAN AND THEY WERE AT A LOSS AS TO WHY THE WARRANTY HASN'T DONE. MY OPINION, NEWBERG DODGE JUST FORGOT THE WARRANTY WORK UNTIL CHRYSLER CALLED THEM.

WELL LAST WEEK THE RELAY SWITCH WAS REPLACED ON MONDAY AND ON BOTH WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY WHILE OPERATING THE CAR AT ABOUT 55 MPH THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF ON ME. BOTH TIMES I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY MOVE OFF THE ROAD WAY. UPON TRYING TO RESTART THE CAR IT WOULD TURN OFF JUST FINE BUT NEVER START UP.

WHILE DRIVING HEARD LOW MOANING SOUND, 5 MINUTES LATER (STILL DRIVING) BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. I DECIDED TO TAKE VEHICLE TO AUTO PARTS STORE BECAUSE IT WAS LATE AFTERNOON (~7:45PM) TO SEE IF MY NEED WAS A BATTERY. I ASKED TECHNICIAN TO COME AND SEE IF IT WAS MY BATTERY OR ALTERNATOR, AS I OPENED VEHICLE DOOR TO POP THE HOOD, THE SUV WAS FILLED WITH SMOKE. THE TECHS SCURRIED TO OPEN THE HOOD AND WAIVED SMOKE IN ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE BATTERY CABLE TO DISCONNECT POWER.

AFTER TECHNICIAN REMOVED THE POWER CABLE FROM THE STUD UNDER THE HOOD, THE FIRE AND SMOKE FROM THE ALTERNATOR SLOWED AND EVENTUALLY WENT OUT. I CALLED INSURANCE COMPANY AND HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALER.

VEHICLE ENGINE WOULD START WITH USE OF IGNITION BUTTON, THEN VEHICLE ENGINE WOULD SHUT OFF WITH OUT WARNING. AT THIS TIME VEHICLE WILL NOT RE-START WITH USE OF IGNITION BUTTON. VEHICLE WOULD JUST ENGAGE STARTER MOTOR AND NOT FIRE ENGINE WITH USE OF IGNITION BUTTON. STARTER WOULD RUN ON UNTIL BUTTON IS PUSHED TO ENGAGE THE OFF POSITION, WITH A NO START CONDITION. AFTER SEVERAL CYCLES OF THE IGNITION BUTTON VEHICLE ENGINE WILL FINALLY START AND STAY RUNNING. PROBLEM IS RECURRING OFTEN.THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE FOR ANY VEHICLE AND THE SAFETY OF ITS OCCUPANTS. THIS CAN LEAD TO LOSS OFF CONTROL OF VEHICLE, POSSIBLE COLLISION AND LOSS OF LIFE, AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE CROWDED INTERSTATES, OR MODERATE SPEEDS ON SMALL TOWN STREETS. *TR

I BOUGHT A 2011 DODGE DURANGO IN OCTOBER OF 2013. THERE HAVE SINCE BEEN SEVERAL RECALLS, ALL TOOK SOME TIME TO RESOLVE BECAUSE THERE WERE PART SHORTAGES ON BOTH OCCASIONS. THE MOST RECENT PROBLEM THAT HAS YET TO BE OFFICIALLY TERMED A RECALL BECAUSE CHRYSLER CLAIMS THEY ARE STILL "RESEARCHING" THE ISSUE INVOLVES A FAULTY IGNITION WIRING HARNESS. THIS DEFECT PREVENTS THE PROPER COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE IGNITION AND FUEL SYSTEMS, WHICH RESULTS IN A VEHICLE THAT HAS PROBLEMS STARTING OR WON'T START ALTOGETHER. MY VEHICLE FALLS UNDER THE LATTER CATEGORY AS IT IS CURRENTLY STUCK IN MY DRIVEWAY. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER AND THEY ARE WELL AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, BUT THERE IS A NATIONWIDE BACKORDER FOR PARTS TO CORRECT THE ISSUE AND CHRYSLER CORPORATION IS DRAGGING THEIR FEET IN DECLARING IT A RECALL, PRESUMABLY TRYING TO AVOID BAD PUBLICITY. IN THE MEANTIME, I'M STUCK WITH AN USELESS VEHICLE, AND CHRYSLER CORP REFUSED TO PROVIDE A RENTAL VEHICLE WHEN I CALLED THEM ON 13 OCT 2014 BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHEN THE PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE. THEY ALSO REFUSED TO PROVIDE ANYTHING IN WRITING STATING THAT THEY KEEP THEIR OWN RECORDS. THE ONLY THING THEY CLAIMED TO BE ABLE TO DO IS PROVIDE A AN EMAIL WHEN THE PARTS BECAME AVAILABLE, FOR WHICH THEY COULD PROVIDE NO ESTIMATE. THEIR CONCLUSION APPEARS TO BE THAT IT IS PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE TO SELL A VEHICLE THAT CAN BE RENDERED INOPERABLE THROUGH THEIR OWN NEGLIGENCE OR POOR MANUFACTURING PRACTICES WITHIN 3 YEARS.AS AN ACTIVE DUTY SERVICE MEMBER AN UNRELIABLE VEHICLE IS NOT AN ACCEPTABLE OPTION. *TR

I BELIEVE THERE IS ACTUALLY 3 INCIDENTS THAT ARE ALL CONNECTED. FIRST WAS AUGUST 2014 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND CAR WAS LOSING POWER. THE DEALER REPLACED THE BATTERY. I ASKED THEM TO CHECK ALTERNATOR BUT WAS TOLD IT WAS FINE. OCT 4, 2014 WE WHERE DRIVING AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON CAR WAS HAVING POWER LOSS AND ENGINE BEGAN TO SMOKE. TOOK TO THE DEALER AND THEY CLAIMED IT WAS A BAD WATERPUMP. THEY ALSO DID RECALL WORK ON THE BRAKING SYSTEM. TWO DAYS LATER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AGAIN AND THE BATTERY LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND OFF. MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER WERE DRIVING CAR DOWN THE ROAD AND CAR POWER SYSTEM JUST SHUT DOWN. THEY HAD NO CONTROL OVER ANYTHING AT ALL IN THE VEHICLE. TOWED TO DEALER AND THEY CLAIM IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR AND THE BATTER. I AM SORRY BUT A VEHICLE WITH 31,000 MILES WITH PROPER MAINTENANCE AND AROUND 10,000 MILES A YEAR SHOULD NOT BE HAVING ALL OF THESE PROBLEM. *TR

Mileage: 31,000

I WAS TOLD THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM) WAS BAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. NEVER HEARD OF THIS PART UNTIL MY VEHICLE STARTED ACTING UP. IT WOULD JUST NOT START EVEN THOUGH IT WAS TRYING. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A STARTER GOING BAD OR SOMETHING SMALL. NOPE! I LEARNED ABOUT TAFN AND THE NEARLY $1,600 IT COST TO REPLACE IT. IN SPEAKING WITH THE TECHNICIAN I FOUND OUT THAT IT COULD GO COMPLETELY OUT AT ANYTIME, AND IF IT DID, MY VEHICLE WOULD BE DEAD IN THE WATER NO MATTER WHAT I WAS DOING. SCARY THOUGHT. ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY. SO, NEEDLESS TO SAY, WE DON'T REALLY HAVE A CHOICE WHEN THIS PART GOES OUT. WHAT'S SAD IS THAT THE VEHICLE IS ONLY A FEW YEARS OLD AND HAS RELATIVELY LOW MILEAGE. AFTER GETTING OFF THE PHONE WITH THE TECHNICIAN I GOOGLED TAFN AND FOUND ALL KINDS OF ARTICLES AND LEARNED THAT CHRYSLER HAS BEEN STRUGGLING WITH THIS PART ON VARIOUS MODELS FOR SEVERAL YEARS. HOPEFULLY THEY END UP DOING THE RIGHT THING AND COVERING THIS AND REIMBURSING THOSE OF US WHO HAVE NO CHOICE AND HAVE TO REPLACE THE FAULTY PART NOW. TO NOT DO SO IS PUTTING OUR LIVES AND THOSE AROUND US IN JEOPARDY. *TR

WENT OUT TO MY CAR TO GO TO WORK AND COULDN'T UNLOCK DOOR WITH KEY, NOTICED A RED LIGHT ON DASH, TRIED TO START MY CAR AND COMPLETELY DEAD. I TOOK BATTERY TO AUTO ZONE THEY CHARGED IT AND CAR STARTED THEN STALLED, DID THIS TWICE AND THEN STAYED RUNNING. I DROVE IT TO WORK, CAME OUT OF WORK STARTED IT AND IT STARTED SHOOK THEN CUT OFF THREE TIMES THEN STARTED. NEXT DAY WENT OUT TO GO TO WORK AND WOULD ONLY START AND SHUT OFF THEN SMOKE FROM THE HOOD AND A SMELL, I HAVE MADE A PHONE CALL INTO TATE DODGE THEY DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ANY ON GOING PROBLEMS.

THE 2011 DODGE DURANGO STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH FAILED STARTS. IT WOULD TAKE MULTIPLE INSTANCES TO GET VEHICLE TO START. SOMETIMES THE THE FUEL PUMP WOULD CONTINUE TO PUMP EVEN THOUGH ENGINE WAS STOPPED. THIS CAUSES A VERY SMOKY BURNING SMELL COMING FROM EXHAUST AND ENGINE. TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPORT THE ISSUE IS A FAULTY TIPM MODULE. THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER BUT VEHICLE IS UNSAFE DUE TO POTENTIAL ISSUES WITH STALLING WHILE RUNNING. REPAIRS ESTIMATED AT $1200. *TR

MY WIFE HAD PROBLEMS STARTING THE DURANGO ON TUESDAY MORNING 9/16. MY WIFE REPEATLY TRIED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. WHEN IT WOULD FINALLY CRANK, IT WOULD SPUTTER AND DIE. IF YOU TRIED TO GIVE IT GAS THE ACCELERATOR WOULD GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT THE ENGINE REVVING. AFTER SEVERAL MORE ATTEMPTS IT FINALLY STARTED AND SHE WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO WORK WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. AS SHE LEFT WORK THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURED TURN THE KEY NOTHING, TURN THE KEY NOTHING, TAKE THE KEY OUT, TURN THE KEY, IT CRANKS AND THEN SHUTS OFF. AFTER GOING THROUGH THE SAME ROUTINE OVER AND OVER WE FINALLY GOT IT TO CRANK. WE DECIDED TO HAVE THE CAR BATTERY TESTED AND IT PASSED. WE GOT A NEW BATTERY FOR THE REMOTE BUT THAT DIDN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM. WE FINALLY TOOK OUR DURANGO TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY 9/17 KNOWING THEY WERE GOING TO CHARGE $100 DIAGNOSTIC FEE. WE EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM AND EVEN TOOK THE SERVICE MAN TO THE VEHICLE AND IT WOULD NOT START. SO HE ACTUALLY OBSERVED THE ISSUE. 2HRS LATER THEY CALL SAYING A PROBLEM COULD'NT BE FOUND. THE TEST DIDN'T PRODUCE A CODE. OK, SO WE SPENT $100 DOLLARS ON A DIAGNOSTIC TEST WITH NO DIAGNOSIS. AS WE PICKED UP THE VEHICLE I ASKED THE SERVICE MAN IF THEY HAD SEEN THIS PROBLEM BEFORE AND OF COURSE HIS ANSWER WAS NO. HE SUGGESTED IT WAS PROBABLY A COMMUNICATION PROBLEM. WELL DUH, SOMETHING WASN'T COMMUNICATING. HE TELLS US TO MAKE SURE ALL DOORS, INCLUDING THE REAR HATCH ARE CLOSED BEFORE STARTING. NOT WHAT I WAS EXPECTING FOR $100. WELL, HE MAY HAVE BEEN TELLING THE TRUTH BUT I AM NOT A MECHANIC AND SINCE THEN I HAVE RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM AND FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE FAULTY TIPM. I AGEEE WITH OTHERS WHO HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT. CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND ARE REFUSING TO TAKE OWNERSHIP. WHAT WILL IT TAKE, DEATH OR A SERIOUS INJURY? I WANT MY FAMILY SAFE. NO AMOUNT OF MONEY CAN REPLACE LOVED ONES! *TR

THIS IS THE KNOWN ISSUE WITH TIPM FAILURE, THE CAR JUST STALLED AND LOST ALL POWER AND WOULD NOT START BACK UP. THE ENGINE WOULD TURN JUST FINE WHEN STARTING BUT WOULD NOT START. HAD IT TOWED TO MY REGULAR MECHANIC AND HE LET ME KNOW TODAY THAT IT IS THE TIPM WHICH IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE WITH LONG WAIT TIMES. *TR

Mileage: 67,000

VEHICLE WAS HAVING TROUBLE STARTING EVERY ONCE AND A WHILE. THE ENGINE WOULD TURN OVER AND OVER BUT WOULD NOT START. APPLYING THE BRAKES AND PUSHING THE START BUTTON WOULD STOP THE MOTOR FROM TURNING OVER. OCCASIONALLY THE ENGINE WOULD START AFTER MULTIPLE TRIES. HOWEVER, IT NOW DOES NOT START AT ALL. *TR

THE PROBLEM FIRST MANIFESTED ITSELF IN AN OCCASIONAL DIFFICULTY STARTING THE VEHICLE, TYPICALLY AFTER IT SAT OVERNIGHT. UPON PRESSING THE START BUTTON THE STARTER WOULD ENGAGE BUT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START. PRESSING THE START BUTTON AGAIN TO STOP THE CRANKING AND THEN RE-PRESSING THE BUTTON WOULD GET THE ENGINE TO START. WEEKS WOULD SOMETIMES GO BY WITHOUT THE PROBLEM RECURRING. AROUND THE MIDDLE OF JULY 2014 THE PROBLEM STARTED TO GET MUCH WORSE, THE CAR SOMETIMES NOT STARTING MULTIPLE TIMES DURING THE DAY EVEN AFTER SHORT STOPS. AROUND THE END OF JULY MY WIFE HAD THE PROBLEM HAPPEN TO HER, GOT THE VEHICLE STARTED, BUT AS SHE BACKED OUT OF A PARKING SPOT THE VEHICLE STALLED IN THE TRAFFIC LANE. AFTER THAT INCIDENT I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A DODGE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY "CLEARED SEVERAL FAULT CODES" AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. THREE DAYS LATER THE VEHICLE ONCE AGAIN WOULDN'T START, BUT THE "RESET AND REPRESS" TACTIC WOULD WORK AND THE VEHICLE WOULD RUN. AROUND AUGUST 7 2014 THE PROBLEM GOT MUCH WORSE. THE VEHICLE TOOK MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS AND 1-2 MINUTES TO GET RUNNING ON SEVERAL MORNINGS, NOW THOUGH THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL ONCE STARTED AND BEFORE MOVING. ONCE RUNNING, IN GEAR, AND MOVING THE CAR WOULD RUN FINE. CAR FAILED TO START THEN EACH MORNING AUG 15-17, TAKING 1-2 MINUTES EACH MORNING AND MULTIPLE STALLS. ON AFTERNOON OF AUGUST 17, 5 MINUTES AFTER MAKING A DEALER APT FOR NEXT MORNING, I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 10 MILES PER HOUR AND THE ENGINE DIED COMPLETELY, POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WENT OUT AS WELL. ONLY AFTER 3 MINUTES DID FINALLY USING THE REMOTE START FUNCTION ON THE KEY FOB GET THE VEHICLE TO START AND RUN, THIS ON A VERY BUSY ROADWAY BLOCKING A LANE OF TRAFFIC. NEXT DAY VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AT THE DEALER EITHER, THEY DIAGNOSED A BAD TIPM MODULE AND OFFERED ME A NEW MODULE FOR $1200 OR A "RELAY KIT" FOR $587. NEW MODULE CURED PROBLEM FOR NOW. *TR

WE ATTEMPTED TO START OUR VEHICLE, BUT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES VEHICLE STARTED BUT STUTTERED, AS IF THEIR WAS NO FUEL GOING TO THE ENGINE. THERE HAD BEEN NO ENGINE OR SERVICE LIGHTS AT THE TIME. I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE ONLINE AND FOUND THAT MANY DURANGO AND CHEROKEE OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED SIMILAR ISSUES, AND THE CAUSE WAS THE TIPM. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TESTED IT, AND FOUND IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TIPM, WHICH WAS FAILING TO ENGAGE THE FUEL PUMP. LUCKILY OUR CAR WAS PARKED AT THE TIME THE PROBLEM STARTED. MY WIFE GENERALLY DRIVES THIS VEHICLE WITH MY TWO SMALL CHILDREN. OUR WARRANTY ENDED AT 36000 MILES, SO IT WAS NOT COVERED. MY OPTIONS WERE TO REPLACE THE TIPM FOR 1200 DOLLARS, OR PAY 428 DOLLARS TO HAVE AN EXTERNAL RELAY INSTALLED TO BYPASS THE FAULTY TIPM (CHRYSLER STAR CASE #[XXX]). WE CHOSE TO HAVE THE BYPASS INSTALLED. VEHICLE IS RUNNING FINE AT THIS POINT, BUT WE ARE WORRIED OTHER ISSUES (AIR BAGS DEPLOYED ETC) WILL BE A FUTURE PROBLEM.

WHEN THE KEY IS PUT INSIDE THE IGNITION, IT TAKES A COUPLE OF TRIES FOR THE ENGINE TO START (IF AT ALL) AFTER FAILING MULTIPLE TIMES. AFTER IT STARTS, SOMETIMES THE ENGINE SHUTS DOWN COMPLETELY WHEN I AM DRIVING AT 30+MPH AND WHEN I HIT A STOP SIGN/RED LIGHT! THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED! *JS

WHEN ATTEMPTING TO USE THE PUSH BUTTON IGNITION TO START THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE CRANK OVER TO START AND THEN STUTTER OUT OR CRANK TO START AND GET STUCK CRANKING UNTIL OPERATOR SHUT IT DOWN- SOMETIMES WOULD NOT SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY BUT KEEP STUTTERING FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. UPON BRINGING TO DEALERSHIP, THE MECHANIC IDENTIFIED ISSUES W/ LARIANT #5 STATING NEED TO BE REPLACED WITH THE NEW STYLE LARIANT #6. DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME- NOT COVERED UNDER ANY TYPE OF WARRANTY. WHY NOT? WHAT IS WRONG WITH LARIANT #5 THAT NEEDED TO BE UPGRADED TO A NEW VERSION? AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE, MULTIPLE OWNERS OF THE 2011 DURANGO HAVE REPORTED ISSUES OF THIS SAME PART. AN INVESTIGATION NEEDS TO BE PERFORMED ON THIS FAULTY PART FROM THE FACTORY. DODGE IS AWARE OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE AND HAS DONE NOTHING TO RESOLVE AND NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. THIS HAS RESULTED IN HEAVY CONSUMER OUT OF POCKET COSTS FOR A NEWER VEHICLE. *TR

WOKE UP THE DAY BEFORE THE FOURTH OF JULY AND GOT MYSELF AND THE KIDS READY TO TRAVEL OUT OF TOWN. LOADED EVERYONE IN THE CAR AND THE TRUCK WOULDN'T START. I PUSHED THE BUTTON AND IT ACTED LIKE IT WOULD START BUT IT WOULD NEVER TURN OVER. I TRIED FOR TWENTY MINUTES AND COULD NOT GET IT STARTED. I HAD TO GET IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY FIRST SAID IT WAS A WIRING AND IT WOULD BE COUPLE OF DAYS. BUT THEN THEY CALLED BACK TODAY AND SAID IT IS THE TIPM AND THEY ARE NOT SURE HOW LONG IT WILL BE BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO ORDER THE PART AND IT WILL TAKE "AWHILE" TO GET IT IN. THIS IS MY ONLY VEHICLE TO GET ME TO WORK AND THREE KIDS TO ALL THE PLACES THEY HAVE TO BE. THIS IS GOING TO BE A HEADACHE AND THE PRICE WENT FROM 200 DOLLARS TO OVER 1,000 DOLLARS. I COULD TAKE THAT AND USE IT ON A DOWNPAYMENT FOR SOMETHING ELSE. CHRYSLER IS WAY OUT OF LINE ALLOWING CONSUMERS TO DEAL WITH A PROBLEM THAT THEY CREATED. *JS

DROVE IT HOME AND PUT ABOUT 30 MILES ON IT AND MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON SO I CALLED AND THEY HAD ME TAKE IT BACK THE NEXT MORNING NOW THEY SAID IT WAS AN IGNITION COIL AND EXPECTED ME TO PAY MY DEDUCTIBLE AGAIN. AFTER SOME DISCUSSION THEY WAVED TO FEE.AND I RECEIVED MY CAR BACK AFTER ANOTHER DAY IN A HALF. I DROVE IT HOME AND AS I GOT THERE WE NOTICED THE RIGHT FRONT TURN SIGNAL DIDN'T WORK INSTEAD MY FOG LIGHTS WOULD BLINK SO I CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY NEEDED SOME CODES TO REPROGRAM THE TURN SIGNAL. I HAD ONLY PUT ABOUT 15 MILES ON IT SINCE I PICKED IT UP AND MY ENGINE LIGHT IS BACK ON AGAIN. SO HERE I GO 4TH DAY BACK TO DEALERSHIP AND ITS SO FRUSTRATING THAT NO ONE CARES AFTER SO MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS PART (TIPM).I GUESS THEY ARE WAITING TILL SOMEONE GETS HURT OR DIES.

BROUGHT TO THE DEALER ON 9/23/13 AND THEY FOUND THE PROBLEM TO BE THE TIPM (TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE), WHICH IS ON A RESTRICTED BACKORDER WITH NO ETA. WE WERE TOLD TO PICK UP THE VEHICLE AND BRING IT BACK WHEN THE PART COMES IN. MY WIFE IS 9 MONTHS PREGNANT AND THIS IS OUR FAMILY VEHICLE, WHICH IS UNRELIABLE. TO MAKE IT WORSE THE VEHICLE STALLED GOING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION THE OTHER DAY, WHEN I WAS DRIVING WITH MY 1 YEAR OLD IN THE BACKSEAT, AND WE WERE ALMOST HIT, LUCKILY THERE WAS AN ANGEL LOOKING OVER US, AND THE OTHER VEHICLE STOPPED JUST IN TIME. I HAVE TRIED TO REACH OUT TO DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE ABOUT THIS, AND THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO PAY FOR A LOANER/RENTAL AND THEY CAN GIVE NO ETA ON THE PART, AS THERE IS A COUPLE THOUSAND ON BACKORDER.

THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A NATIONWIDE RECALL AS IT HAS HAPPENED TO DODGES/JEEP/ETC AND OBVIOUSLY BY SOCIAL MEDIA VIEWING IT CONTINUES. NOT ONLY A FACTORY OR PART DEFECT OBVIOUSLY BUT A SERIOUS SAFETY MATTER FOR THOSE DRIVING OR RIDING IN THE VEHICLE. ONE LAWSUIT AND MAYBE THEY WILL CORRECT? NO IDEA ON ETA OF PART, "WILL CALL YOU WEEKLY" W/UPDATES IS NOT A GOOD SIGN. AMERICA BAILED OUT CHRYSLER AND NOW AMERICA IS DRIVING UNSAFE AND POTENTIALLY LIFE-THREATENING VEHICLES. THEY APPARENTLY ARE OFFERING RENTAL CARS TO SOME. WE CUSTOMERS STILL HAVE TO PAY OUR CAR PAYMENTS/INSURANCE ETC WHILE OUR VEHICLES SIT FOR WEEKS ON END FOR AN ISSUE THAT WE HAD NO WARNING SYSTEM LIGHT DETECTION AND ENGINE STALLING WAS RANDOM EITHER AT THE START OF YOUR ENGINE STARTING OR ON THE ROAD WITH THE POTENTIAL ACCIDENT HAPPENING. COME ON CHRYSLER PROTECT THE AMERICANS THAT BAILED YOU OUT AND DO A RECALL ON THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE AND FIND THE PART...ETA UNKNOWN IS NOT ACCEPTABLE OR FACE EVEN MORE LOSS OF SALES DUE TO THE NEGATIVITY OF SAFETY/ENGINE PROBLEMS SUCH AS THIS.

ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, FCW LIGHT COMES ON, RPM'S RUN HIGH AND CAR ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN. MUST RIDE THE BRAKE AND BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WHEN THAT HAPPENS AS CAR TRIES TO JUMP/ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. WORRY THAT THIS WILL CAUSE ACCIDENT. CAR HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF REPAIR SHOP ON THREE OCCASIONS AND PROBLEM STILL NOT FIXED. DEALER DOES NOT KNOW WHAT IS WRONG OR HOW TO FIX. HAVE CONSULTED CORPORATE AND PUT THE WORD OUT TO OTHER DEALERS BUT TO NO AVAIL. JUST GOT CAR BACK AGAIN AFTER DEALER HAVING FOR THE ENTIRE DAY AND PROBLEM STARTED UP AGAIN. PLAN ON WRITING TO MANUFACTURER AND REPORTING CAR UNDER LEMON LAW. *TR
