2012 DODGE DURANGO Unknown Or Other Problems

When i am driving around out of nowhere it will try to go into Low range when it is in auto Awd and low light will flicker on the dashboard

I’ll be driving down the road and my car just shuts off. Steering becomes tight, no engine lights come on radio is still playing no warning except driving down the road and all of a sudden you can’t steer. It’s very dangerous especially when it happens while you are driving around the curve with children in the car. My mechanic can’t tell me why this happens. No explanation. This has happen several times

Wireless Ignition Module (WIN Module) failed.

There is something definitely wrong with my car. I have just now seen a recall but it occurred before the car was sold to me and it had electric issues with break fail, electrical accessories were still on as the dash notified while the car was off. It has had the seats move the steering would lock, it doesn’t provide many of the features for safety. The GPS is always wrong. I took it to the dealer several times and was told that the factory resets were fine. I don’t think that is the case. Under the hood there seemed to be additional after factory tampering with additional wires that had been added into the car.

THIS CAR IS A DANGER TO EVERYONE. IT RANDOMLY CUTS OFF SHUTOUT WARNING. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC SHOP AND THEY ADVISED THERE WAS A RECALL THAT CAUSES THE CAR TO STALL OUT AND I NEEDED TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE WORK DONE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO SAID THEY COMPLETED THE WORK AND WE LEFT. LESS THAN A WEEK LATER THE CAR IS STILL RANDOMLY CUTTING OFF. IT CUTS OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING OR AT COMPLETE STOP. IT ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE CAR STALL AND LOCKED UP SO I COULDN'T TURN TO AVOID HITTING ANYTHING. THANKFULLY THE CAR WAS ABLE TO A LOW TO A STOP BEFORE HITTING Q CURB AND GOING INTO A DITCH. AFTER THE CAR STALLS IBHVE TO OUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURN THE KEY OFF AND CRANK THE CAR BACK UP AND IT STARTS TO DRIVE. THE PROBLEM IS IBHAVE NO CLUE WHEN ITS GOING TO DON'T AGAIN AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHY THE ISSUE IS HAPPENING. IT HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 7 TIMES SINCE GETTING THE RECALL WORK COMPLETED LESS THAN A MONTH AGO. IT HAPPENS BOTH WHILE DRIVING AND STATIONARY. IT HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT OR TURNING. SO FAR I HAVE BEEN LUCKY ENOUGH FOR IT NOT TO HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY AS I'M SCARED TO DRIVE IN THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE I WOULD PROBABLY DUE DUE TO AN ACCIDENT IF THIS HAPPENS AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED IN A HIGHWAY. THE LATEST INCIDENT HAPPENED TODAY 5/3/2021.

SATELLITE RADIO/CD PLAYER SOUNDS GOES IN AND OUT, REGULAR FM/AM DOES NOT WORK AND THIS IS THE SECOND TIME GETTING IT FIXED

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.

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 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.

THE UCONNECT KEEPS CONNECTING AND DISCONNECTING WHICH IS A SAFT HAZARD DUE TO THE HANDS FREE. DEALER STATED THAT THE COMPUTER NEED TO BE UPDATED FOR WELL OVER $100. I BELIEVE THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. THIS IS HAPPEN ALL THE TIME.

MY WIFE AND SON WAS SITTING IN OUR 2012 DODGE DURANGO CITADEL IN A PARKING LOT WAITING ON MY DAUGHTER WHEN THE HEADREST MADE A LOUD NOISE AND ACTIVATED WITH NO WARNING. LUCKY IT DID NOT HIT THEM. IT'S COULD HAVE BEEN A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION IF IT HAD HIT MY WIFE WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE REMOVED THE HEADREST FROM THE VEHICLE.

I STARTED MY TRUCK UP THE ENGINE LIGHT BRAKE LIGHT AND POWER STEERING LIGHT ALL CAME ON AT THE SAME TIME, THEN MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND MY DASH STARTED TO BLINK IN AND OUT

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

ALL POWER COMPONENTS CUTS OUT WHEN I SLOW DOWN TO MAKE A TURN IN. I HAVE TO TURN THE DURANGO OFF AND RESTART IT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS, FOR IT HAS HAPPEN WHEN I'M CROSSING TRAFFIC TO MAKE THIS TURN. THIS HAS HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES. THE LATEST WAS 3-13-19

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

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.

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

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.

THERE'S A CRAYON SMELL WITHIN MY VEHICLE THAT CAN BE OVERBEARING. I'VE READ OTHER FORUMS ABOUT THIS. I'VE READ IT CAN BE THE GLUE THAT'S USED IN MANUFACTURING. THE SMELL STILL HASN'T GONE AWAY.

VEHICLE STALLS WHILE DRIVING , ONCE WHILE EXITING THE FREEWAY AND ANOTHER WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH TO WORK, I HAVE REACHED THIS ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT MANY DURANGO'S HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM I THINK IT FALLS UNDER NHTSA REFERENCE #15V115000 BUT MY VEHICLE VIN NUMBER IS NOT LISTED UNDER THIS RECALL

HEADLITES ARE SHORTING OUT..PASSENGER HAS A SHORT SOMEWHERE IN GROUND..DRIVERS CORRODED..CLEANED IT..BUT CODE SAYING THERE'S A PROBLEM..NOW REMOTE START..STARTS AND SHUTS OFF CAR AFTER 2 IT 3 SECONDS.ITS ALL STATIONARY..I HAVE NO HI OR LO BEAMS ON PASSENGER SIDE AND REMOTE I

MY TRUCK SHUTS OFF IN MOTION. DOESN'T HAPPEN ALL THE TIME, BUT IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE WHEN COMING OFF THE HIGHWAY. NO RECALL YET FOR THE BODY MODULE, BUT WAS TOLD THAT IS WHAT IT COULD BE. AM I GONNA HALF TO GET REAR ENDED BEFORE THIS IS FIXED!

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?

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

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.

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 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?

CHRYSLER HAS PUBLISHED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB) NUMBER 17-007-14. I EXPERIENCED THE SYMPTOM OF THIS TSB AS A CLUNKING SOUND FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. IT IS CAUSED BY THE SELF LEVELING SUSPENSION (SLS) SHOCK STRUT UPPER MOUNT FAILING. THE SLS IS A COMPONENT OF THE OPTIONAL TOW PACKAGE. BEFORE I UNDERSTOOD WHAT THE ISSUE WAS, I TOWED A 23' 4,500 LBS TRAILER OVER 1,200 MILES. I EQUIPPED MY DURANGO WITH A WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION AND ANTI-SWAY HITCH ASSEMBLY RATED AT 8,000 LBS AND ENSURED BOTH THE TOW VEHICLE AND TRAILER WERE NEAR PERFECTLY LEVEL. ADDITIONALLY I WAS REQUIRED BY THE STATE OF MARYLAND TO HAVE THE TRAILER SAFETY INSPECTED WHICH CONFIRMED THE AXLES WERE PROPERLY ALIGNED, WHEEL BEARINGS WERE SERVICEABLE, AND THE ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROLLER WAS FUNCTIONAL AND ADJUSTED PROPERLY. DESPITE THE FACT THE TRAILER WAS WELL WITHIN THE TOW VEHICLE OPERATING LIMITS, THE TOW VEHICLE AND TRAILER EXHIBITED UNSAFE LEVELS OF DYNAMIC INSTABILITY. THIS DYNAMIC INSTABILITY MANIFESTED AS A ONE-TO-ONE LATERAL OSCILLATION OF THE TOW VEHICLE, LATERAL SWAY INSTABILITY OF THE TRAILER, AND WHAT I WOULD CHARACTERIZE AS A DANGEROUS REDUCED CONTROLLABILITY OF THE TOW VEHICLE AND TRAILER. I ASK THAT THE NHTSA EXAMINE THIS ISSUE AND THAT THIS TSB BE ELEVATED TO A MANUFACTURER FUNDED RECALL ON ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES. VEHICLE OWNERS MAY NOT RECOGNIZE THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE ISSUE OR UNDERSTAND THE EFFECTS ON TOWING STABILITY. THIS NOT ONLY PUTS THE TOW VEHICLE AT RISK, BUT ALL OTHER VEHICLES SHARING THE ROAD. ADDITIONALLY, THE HIGH COST OF MITIGATING THIS ISSUE (GREATER THAN $1,000) WILL VERY LIKELY CAUSE A LARGE NUMBER OF VEHICLE OWNERS TO DELAY THE REPAIR OR EVEN DECIDE NOT TO HAVE IT ADDRESSED AT ALL. CHRYSLER AND DODGE HAVE AN INTRINSIC RESPONSIBILITY TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE WITH A RECALL FOR THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS AS WELL AS ALL DRIVERS WHO SHARE THE ROAD.

MY CAR HAS A FAILED ALTERNATOR, IT FAILED A TEST 3 TIMES, THE PLACE I TOOK IT TO SAYS MY CAR IS TO NEW AND HAS TO LOW OF MILES FOR IT TO HAVE FAILED.

I HAVE TRIED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WITH DODGE SERVICE DEPARTMENT IN MIDLAND, TX TO GET IN TO HAVE THE RECALL SERVICED ON MY VEHICLE AND I HAVE YET TO GET IN. THEY AT FIRST TOLD ME THAT THERE IS A WAITING LIST AND THAT THEY WOULD CONTACT ME. IN OCTOBER, I CONTACTED THEM AGAIN AND THEY SET ME AN APPOINTMENT ON NOVEMBER 11 TO GET MY VEHICLE IN TO GET THE RECALLED FIX. I WENT IN ON THE 11TH AND THEY KEPT MY VEHICLE FOR ABOUT FOUR DAYS AND WHEN I CALLED TO CHECK THE STATUS THEY STATED THAT THEY STILL HAVE NOT GOTTEN TO MY VEHICLE AND THAT THEY ARE NOT SURE WHEN THEY WILL GET TO IT, BUT THAT IF I NEEDED MY VEHICLE THAT I CAN COME PICK IT UP AND THEN THEY WILL CONTACT ME WHEN THEY ARE READY FOR IT. HERE IT IS IN JANUARY AND STILL NOTHING. *TR

WHILE TRAVELING ON I-75, HAD THE VEHICLE ON ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, THE VEHICLE SLAMMED THE BRAKES AND THEN ACCELERATED BACK UP TO 75MPH. NO VEHICLES IN FRONT, NOT DEBRIS, NO REASON WHY IT DID IT. VEHICLE HAS HAD CONSTANT ISSUES WITH THE FORWARD COLLISION SYSTEM ALERTING TO BRAKE WHEN NOTHING IS IN FRONT, TURNING ITSELF OFF AND ON BY ITSELF, AND THE CONSOLE GIVING THE MESSAGE THAT THE BACK SENSORS ARE BLOCKED WHEN NO DEBRIS IS PRESENT OR EVEN WHEN DRIVING. MULTIPLE OTHER "COMPUTER" ISSUES THAT THEY CAN'T FIGURE OUT, FROM LIGHTS TURNING ON/OFF, TO THE WIPERS NOT ACTIVATING WHEN THEY NEED TO AND THE OPPOSITE. DVD PLAYER ACTING FUNNY. IT HAS BEEN ENDLESS

ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WHEN I GET IN THE VEHICLE TO START IT, VIA PUSH BUTTON START, THE VEHICLE WILL START AN IMMEDIATELY SHUT DOWN. ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE VEHICLE RESULT IN A 15-30 SECOND REPETITIVE START LOOP WITHOUT THE VEHICLE STARTING, AT WHICH POINT A RED LIGHT WILL BEGIN BLINKING ON THE CENTER CONSOLE. TYPICALLY THE VEHICLE HAS TO REST FOR APPROXIMATELY TWO MINUTES BEFORE ATTEMPTING A RESTART, SOME OF WHICH ARE SUCCESSFUL AND SOME ARE NOT. THE VEHICLE IS ALSO TAKING UP TO 10 SECONDS TO SHUT DOWN ONCE THE PUSH BUTTON IS DEPRESSED TO TURN OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS BEGINNING TO BECOME A REAL SAFETY CONCERN AS IN AN EMERGENCY I CANNOT TRUST THAT I CAN SHUT DOWN THE ENGINE. *TR
