CarComplaints.com Notes: The second generation Durango was introduced in 2004 and instantly came under fire for, well, catching on fire.
From 2004-2006 electrical overloading in the driver's side instrument panel caused numerous reports of interior fires. The interior infernos became so commonplace that Chrysler eventually issued a recall.
The problems didn't stop there, however. Owners of the recalled vehicles complained about being treated unfairly and given take-it-or-leave-it low ball settlement offers. "They offered me $2000 under NADA retail as a settlement," said one owner, "and have been rude and hostile to deal with." Nothing says awesome service like treating your customers rudely after their cars have already caught on fire.

Truck shifts into unnecessary gears on even small hills, as if it is struggling to climb them. With a V8 4.7 four wheel drive this should not happen. Just got the truck and plan on changing plugs soon to try and fix. Trans shop changed fluid and filter and says trans is sound. Engine also acts as if its missing at times, however there is no code for a miss and engine light is not on.
