1999 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE WARNING LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING. IN ACCORDANCE WITH OWNER'S MANUAL IMMEDIATELY TOOK TO DEALER FOR REPAIR. DEALER UNABLE TO IDENTIFY CAUSE - ESTIMATES $1,350.00 IN COST TO REPLACE MAIN SENSOR, WHICH HE CANNOT ASSURE WILL CORRECT. RECOMMENDS I JUST DRIVE AND IGNOR WARNING LIGHT. I AM ABLE TO LOCK UP BRAKES, INDICATING ANTI-LOCK FEATURE NOT FUNCTIONING AS IT SHOULD.

REPLACING WHEEL BEARINGS ON MY 1999 DODGE DURANGO....$800+ DOLLARS AND IT'S AN INDUSTRY PROBLEM? WHY WEREN'T 1998 & 1999 INCLUDED IN RECALL? MAKES ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE. *AK

HAD TO SPEND 2,100 DOLLARS TO HAVE FRONT UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINTS REPLACED ON BOTH SIDES. AFTER DODGE DEALER RED TAGGED OUR VEHICLE AS UNSAFE TO DRIVE.DODGE FAILED TO INFORM US OF AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THE 1999 DODGE DURANGO FRONT SUSPENSIONS.WE HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED AT ANOTHER SHOP DUE TO COST.*AK

UPPER BALL JOINTS ARE WORN OUT ON MY '99 DURANGO. I WAS TOLD THIS BY A TIRE SHOP WHEN I WENT TO BUY NEW TIRES. THE FRONT END NOISE AND HANDLING DIFFICULTY ARE ON THE INCREASE SINCE THIS PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED IN OCTOBER OF '03. I TOOK MY CAR TO TIRE DISCOUNTERS IN CENTERVILLE, OHIO.

WITH ONLY 42,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE I WAS TOLD THAT ALL FOUR BALL JOINTS REQUIRED REPLACEMENT DURING A ROUTINE INSPECTION. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT I SHOULD NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITHOUT REPLACEMENT BECAUSE THE BALL JOINTS WERE SO BAD.*AK

WE HAD THE UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINTS REPLACED IN DEC. 2003 COSTING US 1,100 DOLLERS AND WE STILL HAVE A NOISE IN THE FRONT END AND WE HAVE HAD IT TO 4 MECHANICS THEY LOOKED AT THE DURANGO AND NONE OF THEM KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. THANK YOU FOR YOU TIME.*AK

19 99 DODGE DURANGO BALL JOINTS NOISE IN THE FRONT END OF VEHICLE DODGE REFUSES TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, FROM THE SUBSTANDERD PARTS HEY BUILT THE DURANGO WITH.*AK

TRUCK UPPER BALL JOINTS NEEDED REPLACEMENT BECAUSE OF PREMATURE WEAR, PER DEALERSHIP. PLEASE PROVIDE MORE DETAILS. *PH THE SEVERE WEAR OF UPPER BALL JOINTS WAS DIAGNOSED BY DEALERSHIP'S MECHANIC. CONSUMER DIDN'T NOTICE THE DEFECT ON THE VEHICLE, BUT THEY'RE CONFIRMED THAT CONDITION WAS DANGEROUS. *LA

WHILE DRIVING CONSUMER HEARD A NOISE, AND VEHICLE SPUN OUT OF CONTROL, CAUSING IT HIT THE CONCRETE MEDIAN. CONSUMER DETERMINED THAT THE REAR AXLE BROKE. *AK

I UNDERSTAND FROM MANUFACTURER YOU ARE INVESTIGATING BALL JOINTS IN 1999 DODGE DURANGOS. I JUST REPLACED 2 BALL JOINTS @ 61,600 MILES ! NEVER, EVER, IN 38 YRS. EVER REPLACED BALL JOINTS IN ANY OF MY VEHICLES. I THINK DAMILERCHRYSLER NEEDS TO RECALL SO WE CAN BE REIMBURSED.*AK
