Car will try to start but won't turn all the way over. It does it intermittently. I've taken it to mark Dodge and 2 other auto shops and no one can find the issue. It has done it over 15 times now

The contact owns a 2015 Dodge Durango. While driving various speeds with the air conditioner activated, the defroster failed to defrost the windows. The contact also heard an abnormal noise coming from the air conditioning unit. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the air conditioner evaporator core failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. Another independent mechanic was also contacted and scheduled an appointment for diagnostic testing. The dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to call NHTSA to file a complaint.

However, the contact had to make several repairs. The contact stated that the electrical system failed, which affected the heating and air conditioning.

The most recent failure was with the transmission, which was currently being repaired. The dealer stated that due to the odometer mileage difference, the contact would have to take a financial loss in order to trade in the vehicle. The contact did not the state from where the vehicle was purchased did not have a "lemon law" and was referred to the state's attorney general's office in her home state.

Durango 8-cyl

  • 55,000 miles
Driving on freeway coming back from payson area and we heard a pop noise at drivers seat headrest and saw that the headrest popped open. We didn't know it was an airbag until a Dodge dealer said that it was the airbag and it's not under warranty and can't take care of it. Kept asking if we were in a collision when the headrest broke and we were not! we were driving at about 65 miles an hour when that happened. We were also told that our motor mounts have to be replaced and the vehicle is only 3 years old. We have kept our vehicles for longer than this before and never had to replace motor mounts. Not sure if they are defective or if these problems are just because it is a Dodge. I have never owned Dodge before. I've been driving the vehicle with the headrest open for about 2 months now as one Dodge dealer in tempe made me go to the one in avondale since that is where I purchased it from and I had to make appointments each time and it took forever to get the appointments for each. Now my neck hurts as a result of driving my vehicle with my head leaning forward and still I haven't heard from the warranty company or the dealership. I called an 800 # after the dealer told me they couldn't do anything and they were to call me back within 3 days and now it's been about 2 weeks and no word from them. The date below is approximate. Please help. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
