This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2015 Dodge Durango. While driving at an unknown speed, all the electrical functions, including the instrument panel, deactivated independently and then reactivated. In addition, the radio independently operated. The vehicle was previously remedied under NHTSA campaign number: 15V461000 (equipment). The failure occurred without warning. Prior to the failure, the air conditioning unit would function independently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the failure was repaired; however, the diagnostic results were not disclosed. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 7,000.

The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 30,000.
After backing out of garage, I placed the vehicle in park with engine running while I walked back into garage. Note vehicle was parked on a slope. Emergency brake was not set. While in garage, I noticed vehicle was rolling down driveway. I was knocked down by drivers side door while trying to get in to apply brake. The vehicle then rolled over my mailbox, across street, over neighbor's mailbox and stopped when it hit a tree. My wife was in car so knows that rear parking sensors never chimed to indicate it was about to hit something which I believe confirms that the car wasn't still in reverse after backing out of garage. The air bags were not deployed. I believe that vehicle slipped out of park. It was not moving when I first got out. My injuries from being knocked to the ground and hers from being in the drivers seat both feel they didn't warrant emergency room treatment but will get treatment if pain persists.
Bought a 2015 Durango in May 2015 have had it 45days and it has been in the service dept at the dealership more than with me. It started with a fuel sensor, then the sunroof wouldn't close, it fried the usb port, the air bag warning light keeps going on & off while driving, now the seat nor steering wheel will move at all or if you does move by some miracle the seat decides to reposition itself while you are driving.
