2015 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

MT REAR, CENTER TAIL LIGHT HAS WATER INSIDE WHICH HAS CAUSED THE LIGHT TO SLOWLY DIE OUT.

REAR TAILLIGHT/BACKUP LIGHT ASSEMBLY ALLOWED WATER PENETRATION AND SUBSEQUENTLY SHORTED OUT SOME OF THE LED BULBS INSIDE THE ASSEMBLY. REAR LIGHTING AT NIGHT IS IMPAIRED AND MAKES VEHICLE LESS LIKELY TO BE SEEN AT A DISTANCE AT NIGHT. ASSEMBLY INCLUDES THE BACKUP CAMERA AND IS ONLY REPLACEABLE AS THE ENTIRE LIGHTING/CAMERA UNIT. DEALER HAS INDICATED THAT THE UNIT IS NOT REPAIRABLE AND IT IS NOT BEING REPLACED BY FICA. CONTINUED WATER PENETRATION COULD ALSO SHORT OUT THE BACKUP CAMERA AND MAKING IT IN VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAW.

WATER IN THE TAIL LIGHTS. EVERY TIME I GET THE CAR WASHED OR IT RAINS I HAVE TO DRAIN THE TAILLIGHT. I'M SO AFRAID THAT THE WATER WILL SHORT OUT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM OR BURN OUT THE TAILLIGHTS, THEN I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $600 FOR A NEW ONE.

WATER HAS COLLECTED IN REAR TAILGATE LIGHTS WHICH HAS CAUSED LIGHTS TO MALFUNCTION INCLUDING LICENSE PLATE LIGHTS.

WATER COLLECTS IN THE REAR TAILLIGHT ASSEMBLY CAUSING LED LIGHTING TO SHORT OUT AND BECOME NON FUNCTIONING. NOT SURE IF WATER COLLECTED IN ASSEMBLY WHILE VEHICLE IS MOVING OR STATIONARY.

2015 DURANGO RT/AWD - WATER POOLS IN THE CENTER TAIL LAMP LED AND SHORTS IT OUT, MAKING NOT ONLY THE "RACE TRACK" PORTION OF THE LED LIGHTING FAIL, BUT THE TAG LIGHTING ALSO, TICKET ISSUED FROM HIGHWAY PATROL. REPLACEMENT MODULE IS $700+ THIS IS A WELL KNOW AND COMMON OCCURRENCE

THE REAR DECK LID TAIL LIGHTS FILL WITH WATER EVENTUALLY SHORTING OUT THE LIGHTS AND IMPACTING THE ABILITY FOR OTHER DRIVERS TO SEE THE VEHICLE FROM THE REAR. OVER TIME THIS MAY LEAD TO OTHER ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AS IT IS NEVER GOOD TO HAVE WATER ACCUMULATING IN THE TAIL LIGHTS. THE BACKUP CAMERA IS ALSO SHARED IN THIS COMPONENT. THIS APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE THAT FCA DODGE APPEARS TO BE IGNORING. THE ONLY SOLUTION OFFERED IS TO REPLACE THE COMPONENT WITH ANOTHER WHICH INCLUDES THE BACKUP CAMERA FOR $1000.

EXTERIOR TAIL LIGHTS AND BAR COLLECT WATER WHICH BURNS OUT THE LEDS. NO WAY TO REPLACE INDIVIDUAL LED NEED TO REPLACE THE BAR WHICH IS OVER $1000.00. IS A NIGHT TIME HAZARD SINCE THE LIGHTS ARE BURNT OUT AND PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE. STARTED AS SMALL BLACK SPOT IN BOTTOM CORNER AND IS NOW SPREADING. SPOKE TO DODGE AND IT'S NOT COVERED! STARTED WHEN CAR HAD LESS THEN 40K MILES ON IT.

WATER GETTING INTO THE 'RACETRACK' PORTION OF THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS CAUSING MALFUNCTION INCLUDING MELTING AND SNORTING OUT WIRES.

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED WITHOUT WARNING MULTIPLE ERROR MESSAGES WERE DISPLAYED FOLLOWED BY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER SHUTTING OFF COMPLETELY. WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED WITHOUT COMMAND. TURN SIGNALS AND LIGHTS WOULD NOT WORK. FUNCTIONS SLOWLY STARTED TO RETURN HOWEVER TRACTION CONTROL REMAINED DISABLED.
