When I first purchased in November of 2022 3 days after A) I've never had Air Conditioning B) The heat worked when it wanted to. C) 3 days after purchased (road trip) my whole front end was on the floor. I found that the entire front end of the power train was faulty. It had broken off. Costed me $900 to repair. D) The alarm and start up sensor is wired to the radio. E) Won't start without the radio. F) I have to charge my battery to go everywhere G) It shakes over 60 mph
NHTSA complaint 11696873My alternator was overcharging my battery, replaced both. still having an overcharging "sweating battery" issue. The vehicle has suddenly died at low speed, but was able to start. The check engine light comes on and goes off, sometimes it is off for weeks, other times for a day, the code it sets is always different, even for components that have been replaced. tells me I have a large leak , a small leak in the evap, egr is shorted to ground, ait is out of spec, etc. Now my transmission has shifted from fifth to third back to fifth to fourth, all while at low speed in cruise control. The speedometer, while in cruise control, will jump to 3000rpm, down to 1500, and between all at the same speed.

The contact then received a second recall notice which stated that parts were now available.

NHTSA complaint 11422133VEHICLE STATIONARY AND IN MOTION SHOW 6 WARNING LIGTHS AND DO NOT GO AWAY . PLUS ALSO WHEN YOU START SLOWING DOWN ,I HEAR A BUMP NOISE IN THE GEARS, BEFORE STOPING THE CAR.( THIS IS NOT AT ALL TIMES)
NHTSA complaint 113665752007 DURANGO RANDOMLY STALLS WHILE DRIVING DOWN TBE HIGHWAY. IT HAS STALLED AS MANY AS 3 TIMES IN 12 MILE TRIP FROM HOME. IT STALLS WHILE IDLING AT A STOP LIGHT. IT WILL STALL WHEN SLOWING DOWN AND THE TRANSMISSION WILL SHIFT HARD AT TIMES. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL STALL. I'M SCARED TO DRIVE IT. IT STALLED ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN I WAS DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AT 60MPH. I KNOW OTHER MODELS HAVE BEEN RECALLED AND IT SEEMS TO BE A FREQUENTLY ASK QUESTION ON SOME DODGE FORUMS. THIS IS A LIFE THREATENING PROBLEM. I HAVE REPLACED THE CAMSHAFT AND CRANK SENSOR, IGNITION COILS, PCU AND ASD RELAYS. SOMETHING US DANGEROUSLY WRONG WITH THIS VEHICLE. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AND MY LIFETIME WARRANTY WAS VOIDED BECAUSE THEY SAID I TOOK IT IN TOO EARLY TO HAVE IT CHECKED. NO ONE CALLED OR LET ME KNOW I NEEDED TO HAVE IT INSPECTED BUT THEY CAN CALL ME EVERY SINGLE DAY TO TELL ME THERE IS AN AIRBAG RECALL. IT ISN'T MPORTANT WHEN YOU CAN'T DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE BECAUSE IT IS TOO DANGEROUS.

NHTSA complaint 11339050MY 2007 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED HAS BEEN HAVING AN ISSUE WHERE THE 4X4 KEEPS TURNING ITSELF ON WITHOUT ME ACTUALLY ENGAGING IT. IVE BEEN HAVING A VERY HUGE WITH SOLVING THE ISSUE BUT I WAS ABLE TO READ A FORUM WHICH STATED THAT I SHOULD FILL OUT THIS FORM. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED, IN MOTION, OR WHEN I HIT THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON THE KEY PAD.
NHTSA complaint 11315494VEHICLE IS SWITCHING INTO 4WD LOW WHILE IN MOTION. I HAVE ALSO HEARD THE ACTUATOR ACTIVATING WHILE THE VEHICLE IS NOT RUNNING AND WITHOUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE BASED ON RESEARCH THAT APPEARS TO BE HAPPENING IN MULTIPLE VEHICLES FOR DODGE. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE SYSTEM COULD CHANGE INTO 4WD OR 4WD LOCK AT A HIGHWAY SPEEDS CAUSING DANGEROUS AND UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS.

THE FUEL SPRAY OCCURS EVERY TIME THE FUEL TANK IS FILLED NEAR FULL. FOLLOWED WITH A STRONG FUEL ODOR INSIDE THE CABIN THAT LASTS FOR ABOUT AN HOUR. THE PROBLEM STARTED AROUND 2010

NHTSA complaint 11161995OUR DURANGO RANDOMLY SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING OR WHEN WE ARE IDLE. IT HAPPENS A LOT WHEN MAKING TURNS AND I LOOSE STEERING AS WELL. ABS INDICATOR ON AS WELL AS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT USUALLY SHOWS O2 SENSORS OR CRANK SHAFT SENSORS. HAD BOTH REPLACED MANY TIMES AND THE ISSUE STILL OCCURS. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION, AS IT IS OUR FAMILY CAR.
NHTSA complaint 11157281I JUST PURCHASED A 2007 DODGE DURANGO AND NOTICED THAT EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE TRUCK AT A GAS STATION, INSTEAD OF THE GAS PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTTING OFF ONCE THE GAS TANK WAS FULL, GAS WOULD SPIT/BACK OUT OF THE NOZZLE AREA AND RUN DOWN THE SIDE OF THE TRUCK. I AT FIRST THOUGHT IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE GAS STATION, BUT IT HAS OCCURRED THREE MORE TIMES AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS. NEEDLESS TO SAY, THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND APPARENTLY, THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH OTHER DODGE OWNERS. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT BECAUSE I PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY, I'M RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEDUCTIBLE. THIS PROBLEM SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL ON DODGE BEHALF. I'M AFRAID THAT BECAUSE I HAVE TO WAIT TO COME UP WITH THE DEDUCTIBLE, A MORE SERIOUS ACCIDENT COULD OCCUR IN THE MEANTIME. PLEASE CONTACT ME AT YOUR EARLIEST CONVENIENCE AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS LETTER.
NHTSA complaint 11129267WHEN FILLING TANK THE FUEL FILLER HOSE SPRAYS FUEL BACK EVERYWHERE. I AM SCARED TO FILL MY TANK UP AS IT IS A RISK THAT GAS GETS SPRAYED ALL OVER YOU. MY VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AT THE PUMP TURNED OFF. IN GOOGLING IT SEEMS MULTIPLE PEOPLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM.
