Driver's Seat Module Failed
2012 Dodge Durango
This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Dodge dealer.
CarComplaints.com Notes: When the 3rd-generation Durango was introduced in 2011 owners almost immediately started having a wide range of issues -- from water pump failure to stalling engines. Turns out the TIPM is to blame and those problems carried into the 2012 model year.
TIPM (Totally Integrated Power Modules) is responsible for controlling and distributing power to all the vehicle’s electrical functions. So when the TIPM starts acting up, so do all sorts of problems in the vehicle.
The problems have been so bad -- and replacement parts became so hard to find -- that a class-action lawsuit was filed against Chrysler focusing on the 2011-2012 Durango. The lawsuit accuses the automaker of ignorning the problem until it spiraled out of control.

The drivers seat memory module that controls the seat position as well as radio presets, and mirror positions, malfunctioned and wouldn't store the memory for seat position #2. We took it to the dealer and they said it would take a month for the part to arrive. One month later part arrived and was installed on the vehicle. Two days later the part failed again. Same response from dealer, one month for part, one month later part was installed, three days later, part failed. 1st complaint of 10 for this vehicle.
