On July 31, 2005 the check engine light came on. She took vehicle to dealer and had it fixed. The next day the light was still on. Vehicle was taken back to the dealer. Currently, the check engine light, ABS light and a brake light were on. Vehicle had been to the dealer 4 times and still couldn't find the cause of the problem. Manufacturer had not been contacted. She has paid for all the trips to the dealer and they haven't fixed it yet. She could not afford to continue paying for all repairs.

I own a 1999 Dodge Durango with approximately 64,000 miles. Immediately upon purchasing the vehichle I have experienced a large poping and dragging sound when turning or performing a U-turn. Recently I attempted to make a U-turn and my car nearly lost control and felt as if it would tip over. I took the vehicle in to cerritos Dodge and I was advised that the vehichles upper and lower, right and left ball joints were completely shot. All were replaced. I continue to experience the popping and dragging sounds. Upon purchasing the vehichle, I have had to change the (all four) tires 3 times, obtain 3 wheel alignments, change the battery (went completely dead at approximately 25,000 miles) repair the brake light switch (brake lights wouldn't turn off), and repair door/hatch locks (unable to lock and make loud buzzing and clicking sound).

At 70mph, on I-75 in Michigan '99 Durango transfer case blew apart causing vehicle to jump with smoke pouring out the back of the vehicle. Was barely able to get vehicle under control and off to side of road. Mechanic stated front driveshaft cracked thus maybe causing transfer case cv joint to go blowing apart transfer case. Another vehicle experienced a flat tire at high speed due to running over pieces of transfer case. Have spent over $4000 dollars in repairs to Durango in 3 years including (front driveshaft, transfer case, water pump, PCM, upper & lower ball joints, upper control arms, sway bar bushings, front rotors, brakes, etc. Only 78,000 on the vehcile when transfer case blew up. Can I file a claim for lemon law regarding ball joints. Uppers need replaced again.

Consumer stated the truck failed state vehicle inspection due to excessive wear and looseness of the front upper ball joints. The ABS light illuminated on the dashboard and the center brake lights was inoperative. The dealer replaced the anti-lock brake sensor and the light bulb had burned out.
