2017 DODGE DURANGO Exterior Lighting Problems

Lower portions of rear tail light are failing due to water infiltration.

Rear liftgate taillight assembly seal has failed allowing water to get in. As a result, the led lighting element has failed which dramatically reduces rear visibility by other vehicles.

The rear lights on the tailgate on these vehicles continue to fail due to water inclusion. This affects night time visibility. I've noticed this trend on many Dodge Durango models spanning many different years. My vehicle had this occurrence with roughly 70,000 miles. Many vehicle owners have had much earlier failures.

Rear light has known issue of water protruding into housing causing a short circuit to occur, therefore causing tail light to quit working including license plate lights to quit working causing me to be pulled over when for equipment not operating to find out then my lights had shorted out. Then to find out to get my license plate light in working order i need to spend 1500+ dollars for a design flaw that dodge is still manufacturing. The people of the united states need your help getting this fixed

Bought a used 17 durangoGT on July 29th 2024 notice a crack in tail light and told the used car manager about it and brushed it off now there is an issue with racetrack light and water is getting in and is now half lite the dealer said there isn’t a problem so took it to dodge and had a 2nd option and they said it was the crack and on top of that there is a class action lawsuit against dodge for the track light and it can cause electrical issues and license plate light and rear camera issues this is unsafe and I got a invoice from dodge of the issue too

Rear tail panel lights don’t work, water intrusion causing failure

The “race track light” on the rear hatch of the vehicle has allowed water to get in to the electrical LED components and has caused a portion of the light to fail. It seems to be a common failure and it creates a safety issue with visibility of the vehicle at night. In addition, the component to replace this light is very very expensive, with no hope that the new part will not fail in the same manner.

Water intrusion on Track Light started with small section becoming dim March 2023. Left license plate bulb/housing went out october 2023 with corrosion on plug. February 2024 entire hatch lighting out (track light + both license plate lights).

The contact owns a 2017 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that after a visual inspection of the vehicle, he became aware that the taillights were not functioning properly. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the taillight sealant, resulting in water leaking into the casing and short-circuiting the wiring. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure reoccurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but provided no assistance. The failure mileage was 79,000.

Tracktail lights water go inside and cost repairs is over 1,500 all cables got burned out fire can happen soon if they don't. Make a safety recall for its 2017 dodge durango rt racetrack tail lights

Water has been collecting in the right hand side of my racetrack taillight on my 2017 Durango causing my entire strip to burn out completely. It seems as though debris and bugs have also made their way into the tail light as both are visible and trapped within the light assembly. The taillight flickers upon starting the car and then completely stops working. I attempted to dry the light out by removing it, getting all condensation and collected water out, sealing up the parts that were weeping and cleaning up the gaskets that had weak spots but the entire assembly seems to have totally failed. This car has had no rear end damage and nothing happened that would have compromised the unit to cause this issue.

On my 2017 Doge Durango RT the “Racetrack” light has failed and created a safety issue for my vehicle. The LED light on the hatch has failed from poor manufacturing and has allowed water it get into the light shorting out the whole taillight. This has not only made a running light not work while I’m driving, but has caused the license plate light and the rear backup camera to fail. This is an over 1000 dollar repair. I will replace it for the safety of my family and those who drive on the roads with me. I have seen many other dodge Durango of the same model years that have a similar problem. There is a large online community who report the same issue. I hope this issue has not caused an accident for anyone else.

The rear center tail light, “Racetrack light” has water in it and is defective now for the second time, this is a well known issue, but continues to fail. Dodge will not cover the repair even with a maximum care warranty, pushing a well documented issue back to the consumer.

The rear tail light(race track light) has lost its seal and water has protruded the sealed of the LED tail light causing disruption in the light functioning properly. I have taken my vehicle to the dealership, it does have an extended warranty from Mopar on the vehicle, but the dealership will not cover. The replacement cost of repairing the rear tail light. The dealership informed me that this was a reoccurring issue for Dodge Durango‘s. I am concerned that the tail light will completely fail, and I will be involved in an incident due to the driver behind me not being able to recognize my vehicle with the tail light not functioning properly..

Water in tail lights. Complete failure of marker lights

Back tail track light has water intrusion from a bad gasket that dodge installed on these durangos and I'm scared that it will cause an electrical fire

Apparent defect in racetrack light. Water gets into the racetrack light and causes it to burn out. This will cause the racetrack light to not fully light up when braking. Multiple people have almost rearended me. Did some research and other owners have reported an electrical smell or possible burning smell. Defect was confirmed with car dealership that water is getting into the racetrack light. Sometimes its part of light sometimes its the full light. Unable to pass inspection in NYS without light being completely lit up so this needs to be recalled as it is a safety issue and should be fixed by Dodge.

The contact owns a 2017 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while driving the vehicle, the rear brake lights failed to illuminate. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who diagnosed that the rear brake light bulbs had failed due to water and condensation inside the rear taillight assembly housings. The light bulbs were replaced, and the failure was temporarily fixed; however, the failure reoccurred. The contact stated that the rear taillight assembly housings had been replaced on two previous occasions for the same failure. Additionally, the rear back-up camera malfunctioned and no image was displayed. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 60,000. The contact stated that the rear brake lights were replaced for a second time but the problem still persists.

Mileage: 60,000

The contact owns a 2017 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that the taillights failed to operate as needed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that a circuit chip was burned due to contact with an unknown fluid. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

Mileage: 40,000

Rear Tracklights has water intrusion. This is a safety hazard and should be a recall asap

All of my lights on the back of my vehicle are out due to water damage. This is a known problem with these vehicles. The vehicle has less than 50,000 miles. The cost for a replacement is $1500. Dodge has known of this issue for many years has done nothing to correct it. It will not pass the state safety inspection with the lights out. It is a safety issue because I have no rear lights. We contacted Dodge. They told us if this becomes a recall, they will reimburse us for repairs. This has been an issue for many years and they have neglected to repair the problem. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

The whole back panel of tail, break, blinker, licenses plate lights do not work. The seal does not perform properly and causes water to build up in the lights and fries them. It causes the vehicle to be unsafe when driving due to no lights working. No warnings were given at all just completely quit working.

The rear “track light” which includes the camera within the assembly collects water from a failed seal. This causes lights and electrical components to be damaged and stop working. Drivers losing function in their brake/tail lights and cameras causes dangerous situations on the road. This is a common issue in the 14’-‘20 models.

Have had ongoing issues with the electrical system since I purchased this vehicle new yet the dealership continued telling me they couldn't find anything until now. My SUV is 5 years old and now all of a sudden needs a new wiring harness.

Water leaking in the race light and now for the third time water is in there again and now the right side is burnt out!

There is a gap between the lift gate lamp and the frame of the vehicle allowing for water build up in the lighting causing for the brake lights to malfunction and go out at random times. Dealer wants to charge 1,500 to replace light but refuses to acknowledge that the issue is cause by the gap between the frame and the light. Constantly have to bleed out water from my brakes until they went out

The rear tailgate lights, which operate in conjunction with the tail lights, fills up with water over time. The water then shorts out the LED lights.

Water is able to leak into the rear hatch “racetrack” tail light by means of a faulty sealing system used on the tail Light across the back hatch. The water then grounds out the break and tail light function as well as numerous other electrical systems (in my case the radio and whole vehicle control system located in the dash). The seal on the light is a non serviceable item and the manufacturer claims the only fix is to replace the entire light at a cost in excess of $1,500.00. The gap in the seal is large enough for insects to enter the light as well, so not at all water tight as a external light should be.

The contact owns a 2017 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while driving, the vehicle stalled while utilizing the AUTO STOP/START feature. The contact was able to pull over. The shift to park message was blinking and the AUTO STOP/START exclamation was displayed. The check engine warning light was illuminated. Additionally, the headlamp was inoperable. There was an abnormal knocking noise detected from the transmission. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer but was unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The vehicle was taken to another local dealer; Star Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (211-10 Jamaica Ave, Queens, NY 11428(844) 291-4802) who was also unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer contacted the owner and informed him a specialist would be looking at the vehicle; however, no further assistance was provided. The approximate failure mileage was 80.

Mileage: 80

The tail light on the tail gate accumulates water and causes the light to go out. This could cause the entire brake light to short and could result in a rear end collision. 85 percent of the Dodge Durangos I see have the same issue. This isn’t a wear and tear problem, the lights weren’t sealed properly from the factory. Attached are just a few photos demonstrating the problem. Dodge owes it to the consumer to have this recalled

The contact owns a 2017 Dodge Durango. The contact stated while driving 40 mph, the contact was pulled over by the police and was informed that their rear center taillight was inoperable. Additionally, the license plate light was also inoperable. The contact was able to continue driving back to the residence. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer to be inspected. The contact was informed that there was a cost for a diagnostic test. The contact declined due to the cost. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 84,506.

Mileage: 84,506

The contact owns a 2017 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that the headlights would turn off inadvertently after driving for 30 minutes. The contact was made aware of the headlight failure when she was pulled over by the police. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and diagnosed that the headlight assemblies were faulty, but only the light bulbs were replaced. The failure recurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unavailable. The Vin was unavailable.

The rear center tail light, or track light, was poorly designed and it allows water to get trapped inside and sit, resulting in the lights burning out. This single light assembly consists of a brake light that is the width of the rear hatch, a backup camera, and reverse lights. The only way to fix this problem is to replace the entire light assembly which costs over $1,000. This is a very widespread problem with Dodge Durangos based on the vast number of complaints for this specific issue, and I am surprised that this is not a recall considering the number of complaints associated with this problem. As you can see from the picture that I have attached, the bottom lights on both sides no longer work because of the sitting water inside. I tried to get this problem fixed, being that it is a manufacturer defect, but Dodge is unwilling to help me because my 2017 Durango is just out of warranty. I would greatly appreciate help with this problem. Thank you

THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT WENT OUT. MY CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY SO I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE WHOLE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY HAD TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE THE BALLEST WAS BAD WHICH CAUSED THE BULB TO BLOW. WITHIN TWO OR THREE WEEKS THE PASSENGER SIDE ONE WENT OUT AND WAS TOLD THE SAME THING. THE CAR WASN'T UNDER THE MANUFACTURE WARRANTY AT THAT POINT SO ENDED UP COSTING ME MONEY TO REPLACE IT. THIS IS CLEARLY A FAULT IN THE DESIGN BECAUSE THERE WAS ANOTHER CUSTOMER THERE THAT HAD THE VERY SAME ISSUE. BOTH LIGHTS WHEN YOU STARTED THE CAR THE LIGHT WOULD FLASH ON AND THEN AFTER STARTING TO DRIVE THE LIGHT WOULD THEN GO OUT. *TR

I NOTICED THAT THE FRONT LEFT TURN SIGNAL QUIT WORKING. I ASSUMED IT WAS A BURNT-OUT BULB. IN SEARCHING ON THE INTERNET FOR A "HOW-TO" FOR REPLACING THIS BULB (IT'S IN PRETTY CRAMPED QUARTERS), I FOUND THAT IT WAS COMMON FOR THE TURN SIGNALS TO WORK INTERMITTENTLY FOR THIS VEHICLE AND SEVERAL MODEL YEARS BEFORE AND AFTER IT. FURTHER, THERE WAS A DIAGNOSIS OF BURNT CONTACTS THAT WERE THE CULPRIT. IN REMOVING THE BULB, IT APPEARED TO BE NOT BURNT OUT, BUT THE CONTACT WAS BURNT. I REPLACED IT AND THE NEXT DAY IT FAILED TO WORK AGAIN. NOW IT AND THE OTHER ONE WORK INTERMITTENTLY. IN REMOVING THEM, I FIND THAT THE CONTACT IN THE RECEPTACLE IS ALSO BURNT. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A PREVALENT PROBLEM ON THIS VEHICLE MODEL (GIVEN THE INTERNET COMPLAINTS), AND THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. FURTHER, I AM REQUIRED (FOR SAFETY REASONS) TO HAVE FUNCTIONING TURN SIGNALS ON THIS VEHICLE. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND THEY CLAIM THAT THERE ARE NO OUTSTANDING RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE. BEYOND THAT THEY REFUSED TO COMMIT TO WHETHER THIS WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM OR IF THERE WAS A KNOWN SOLUTION.

Mileage: 42,000

I NOTICED WATER GETTING INTO THE MIDDLE LED RACE TRACK LIGHTING. THE MIDDLE LED LIGHT IS ALREADY OUT BECAUSE OF THIS. I BELIEVE THE HOUSING IS A FACTORY DEFECT, MY TRUCK ONLY HAS 40,000 AND THIS IS ALREADY HAPPENING. EXTENDED WARRENTY WONT COVER THIS BECAUSE OF "CONDENSATION."
