well i bought the truck and i loved it but then in 2007 it gave me sh*t knocking noise and oil pressure going up and down next thing you know it died and would not start. so i rebuilt it in 2008 of summer and it lasted till now which is dec. 2nd its been knocking for a good month or two and finally gave. i am not rebuilding it or having someone else do it cause its to much money now i have a truck payment and cant even drive the f*cking thing. im pist so solution don't buy a dodge ever and now im buying a Honda accord for 1000 and i still owe money on it but for all i care they can come pick it up they would be doing me a favor so hopefully someone will recall the 4.7 engine i here they are made by Mercedes i don't know if that's true but you would think it would be quality made by Mercedes guess not thanks for listening and Chrysler goto hell

I have had all the same problems as the rest. oil and gas gauges going crazy and now the loud knocking . It is still running but it seems it is trashed at this point because there is no other remedy's other than engine replacement at this time. The car is not worth the money to repair it. You are correct , this is B.S. .

I need help and advice. I live in Virginia - here goes: Car went from running fine, no problems (that I knew of) to having a loud engine knock. I changed the oil and noticed what appeared to be engine shavings in the oil. Had it checked by two different mechanics who have basically said I need an engine replacement!! From what I've read, this is a common problem with the 2000 Dodge Durango. If I do replace the engine, am I going to have the exact same problem with a different engine? What advice can someone give me. I currently have to borrow a car because the car is sitting DEAD in the driveway. I've been told that if I drive it with the knocking noise that the engine will blow. I still owe 1800.00 on the car and don't want to pour in more money just to go through this again. I also used engine flush which made the noise lessen but not go away. HELP!!!

My transmission goes bad every 500miles. Now I can't go anywhere. I have to use my aunts car to take my kids to school and for me to go to work. My piece of crap car sits there. I still have to pay on the car. I'm not paying sh*t they can have it.
