2015 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

THE TAILGATE LIGHT ON THE LIFT GATE COLLECTS WATER WHEN IT RAINS OR IS BEING WASHED. I NEED TO LIFT THE GATE TO LET THE EXCESS WATER DRIPS OUT. THE LIGHT IS DISCOLORED IN THE LOWER LEFT AND LOWER RIGHT SIDE.

CHRONIC INTERMITTANT PROBLEM WITH TRANSMISSION FAILING TO GO IN CORRECT GEAR. WHEN GOING FROM PARK TO DRIVE OR REVERSE THE VEHICLE STAYS IN THE LAST GEAR. I HAVE HAD TO TURN OFF VEHICLE AND WAIT 15 SECONDS TO RESET POWER TRAIN MODULE. WHILE DRIVING THE GEAR KNOB LIGHT STARTS FLASHING. THE VEHICLE WAS SHOWING DRIVE BUT IT WAS STILL IN REVERSE AND WENT BACKWARDS. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER THREE TIMES TO HAVE THE POWER TRAIN MODULE TO BE RE-PROGRAMED. THE POWER TRAIN MODULE HAS SUBJECT TO RECALL AT LEAST TWICE!

PROBLEM WITH FRONT TURN SIGNAL MESSAGE NOT WORKING, CHANGED BULBS BUT STILL GETTING THE MESSAGE THIS IS AN ISSUE NOT KNOWING IF TURN SIGNALS ARE WORKING

TL* 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. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED FOR HER SAFETY DUE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF THE FAILURE OCCURING IN THE EXTREMELY HOT WEATHER CONDITIONS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 82,201.

BACKUP LAMP ASSEMBLY PART NUMBER 68155950AJ HAS WATER INSIDE IF IT. DODGE CLAIMS ITS A "LIGHT" AND WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE. ITS A $700.00 LIGHT. MANY DIFFERENT WEB SITES HAVE THE SAME FRUSTRATED CUSTOMERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE.SEAL GOES BAD AND WATER GETS IN, LOTS OF WATER.

DRIVER'S ACTIVE HEADREST POPPED WHILE DRIVING DOWN A SMOOTH, PAVED ROAD AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH. THE LOUD NOISE AND JOLTING OF THE SEAT ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT.

WATER IS COLLECTING INSIDE OF THE TAIL-GATE LIGHTS ASSEMBLY CAUSING IT'S COMPLETE FAILURE - NO LIGHTS MOUNTED ON THE TAILGATE ARE WORKING.

PLEASE SERVICE AIRBAG NOTIFICATION AND WARNING INDICATOR WILL COME AT START OF VEHICLES.

FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW, THE BOTTOM RIGHT HAND SECTION OF THE LED 'RACETRACK' TAIL LIGHTS ON THE TRUNK OF MY DURANGO HAS BEEN BURNED OUT. APPARENTLY, THIS IS COMING FROM WATER FILLING UP IN THE LEDS DUE TO WEATHER STRIPPING TO KEEP WATER OUT FAILING TOO EARLY. THIS NORMALLY WOULDN'T BE A HUGE CONCERN SINCE TAIL LIGHTS CAN BE REPLACED, HOWEVER CHRYSLER/DODGE/FIAT HAS MADE IT ENTIRELY TOO EXPENSIVE FOR ANYONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND TO EVEN TRY TO AFFORD A REPLACEMENT. THE LEDS CANNOT BE EASILY REPLACED, THEREFORE YOU HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE TAIL LIGHT/BRAKE LIGHT PORTION ON THE TRUNK. ON TOP OF THAT, THIS PART MUST COME WITH THE BACK UP CAMERA, YOU CAN'T BUY THE PART WITHOUT THE BACK UP CAMERA. THE COST FOR THIS IS 1,085 USD WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY ABSURD, AND THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE THE COST OF LABOR AS WELL. THE BRAKE LIGHTS OF ANY VEHICLE ARE A HUGE SAFETY FUNCTION OF THE VEHICLE, BOTH DURING THE DAY IN DARK FOGGY/RAINY CONDITIONS AS WELL AS ANYTIME AT NIGHT. CHRYSLER/DODGE/FIAT MUST EITHER MAKE THIS INCREDIBLY CHEAP TO REPLACE, OR PUT IN A RECALL TO BE REPLACED AT THE COMPANIES EXPENSE. THIS COULD CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE THAT THE VEHICLES INSURANCE COMPANY MUST PAY FOR, OR EVEN DEATH TO ANY PERSON OR ANIMAL RIDING IN THE VEHICLE IF INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. LUCKY, MY ENTIRE 'RACETRACK' LED TAIL LIGHT SYSTEM HAS NOT COMPLETELY FAILED, YET. KEYWORD: YET. IT'S INEVITABLE, IT WILL HAPPEN THE MORE WATER THAT GETS INTO THE LED SECTION OF THE LIGHT.

THE TAILGATE LIGHTING IS TAKING IN WATER, BECAUSE IT HAS FILLED WITH WATER MY LED LIGHTS HAVE GONE OUT ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT PORTION OF THE STRIP. WHEN I TOOK MY DURANGO TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO FIX 2 RECALLS I ASKED IF THIS WAS A PROBLEM THEY SAW A LOT, THEY SAID THAT IT IS A PROBLEM THAT GETS BROUGHT TO THEM PRETTY OFTEN.
