On October 2,2012 I purchased a Dodge Durango with less than 100 miles.. I have always kept up with scheduled maintenance. I'm still searching for all my paperwork.. I found paperwork where the check engine light was on at 81,552 -02/21/15--12/31/15--10/14/17--10/14/17---10/17/17--04/02/18.. I have spent over $3,000 dollars to repair the check engine light, now im told that this vehicle that I have paid approximately over $40,000 not including all the repairs will not be fixed and perhaps I need to trade it in for another vehicle.. I am extremely outraged with this company and feel I have been ripped off. This vehicle had and has a lot of recalls all which I have kept up on and still im not able to enjoy my vehicle..I dont feel safe driving this vehicle anymore.. engine shut down and even after all the money invested im still having problems..I have all the documents relating to this engine problem. I would appreciate your assistance in this matter.. thank you

We had an exhaust leak, and we didn't think that it was a big deal maybe a broken seal. I noticed the leak when I used my remote start in the morning.turns out the exhaust manifold warped and broke bolts! this could have caused some serious safety issue if it hadn't been looked into. I looked at other Dodge Durango owner sites and this seems to be a common problem amongst owners of this make and model.

The failed tipm is dangerous and could leave you stranded from astalled engine. The failed alternator may have been a by product of the faulty tipm. This part should be part of a recall.

My vehicle began having this issue in 2015. My vehicle has a long crank and sometimes does not turn over. It will also turn over, then sputter out after running for 20-30 seconds. In 2015, I began to have the issue with the vehicle not turning on/not turning over. I had the vehicle towed dealer and the tipm module was replaced. The vehicle intermittently had the issue turning over, but when I took it to the dealership, I was told that the issue could not be replicated. In 2016, my vehicle shut off on me while I was driving on the freeway. The hazard lights would not work, the vehicle would not turn on, and the gears would not change to facilitate a tow. Upon opening the hood of the vehicle, it appeared as though there was a malfunction with the alternator and fuses (of which I have video). I had my vehicle towed to the dealer and was called by a service advisor the next day. I was told that my win module had to be replaced, which I paid for. In addition, my battery had died, and I paid to replace that. I told the dealership I had video of the alternator and fuses malfunctioning and they stated they did not need the video as the computer diagnosis pointed to an issue with the win module. Several months later, I began to have the issue with the vehicle not turning over. I requested a tow and the tow truck driver suggested I use the actual key instead of the push button ignition, which I have been doing. I took the vehicle in again in October, as the vehicle again began to have the long crank issue and would intermittently not start. I was told there was a recall on my alternator, but a replacement was not available. The dealership replaced my alternator, but informed me that it still would not be the improved/recall part. I have taken the vehicle back in three (3) more times for the same issue and every time, I am told that the vehicle required a software update.

As I turned right, the vehicle once again stalled. The engine turned off, but all the electrical systems continued to work. I placed my foot on the gas to demonstrate that it would not move while the vehicle was still in drive. Then I did the same with the break to demonstrate that it wouldn't respond. I put the vehicle in park with my foot on the brake and the vehicle restarted. My children were in the vehicle and my oldest son recorded until we reached the intended stopping point. The mileage on the vehicle was 94,624. The vehicle had a trigger box / flight recorder, but it quit functioning the previous week when the car also stopped last week.

Our Dodge Durango stalled as I was turning left. When I went to push the trigger box, it did not work and will not come back on. I restarted the car and waited, but the trigger box no longer works. This is of course strange because once again, nothing can be recorded. The key fob battery is brand new and the push button was in use. I have a video for documentation. The mileage is 94,017. We have recorded via trigger box daily jerks with the Durango and now the major issue we needed documentation of can't be captured because the device no longer operates.
