2013 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THERE WAS A WINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD AND NOTICED A BURNING ODOR COMING FROM ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V634000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000. ..UPDATED 05/17/17 *BF UPDATED 08/17/2017*JS

VEHICLE LOOSES POWER AND STALLS WHEN APPROACHING A STOP (WHILE STILL IN MOTION). I HAVE TO PLACE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTART VEHICLE IN ORDER TO CONTINUE DRIVING. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE ME TO BE REAR-ENDED AT SOME POINT AS IT DOES HAPPEN PRIOR TO ME ARRIVING AT A STOP SIGN OR STOP LIGHT. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR APPROX. THE LAST 3-4 WEEK AND BECOMING MORE FREQUENT. *TR

2013 DURANGO HAS BEEN INTERMITTENTLY STALLING (IN MOTION) AND HARD- OR NON-STARTING(STATIONARY). 62000 MILES. TOWED TO DEALER AND OF COURSE THEY COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM. DID A THROTTLE BODY CLEANING AT MY REQUEST. STARTED OK FOR 2 WEEKS AND IS NOW DOING THE SAME AGAIN. DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR MY FAMILY.

I BELIEVE THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE IS THE PROBLEM. IT WILL NOT START SOMETIMES AND THEN WILL NOT STAY RUNNING WHEN IT DOES. CRANKS AND DIES, ACTS LIKE STARTER JUST KEEPS TURNING OVER AND OVER AFTER HITTING IGNITION BUTTON. WE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR A FEW WEEKS AND IT KEEPS GETTING WORSE. OUR VEHICLE YEAR MAKE AND MODULE FALL WITHIN THE TIME FRAME OF A STATED RECALL AND THE SAME ISSUES IN THAT RECALL ARE HAPPENING TO OUR VEHICLE. IT HAS HAPPENED IN OUR DRIVEWAY, RURAL AND CITY STREETS. WHILE AT RED LIGHTS OR STALLING WHILE IN MOTION OR OTHER STOPPING REASONS. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS, THANK YOU [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

AS WE WERE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT APPROX 50 MPH AND OUR DURANGO SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY AND WOULD NOT TURN ON. THERE WAS SMOKE COMING FROM THE ENGINE AS WELL. IT SCARES ME TO THINK THAT A VEHICLE CAN JUST SHUT DOWN WITH NO WARNING AND YOUR LEFT TO PULL YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY TO SAFETY AND PRAY THAT ANOTHER VEHICLE WILL NOT HIT YOU FROM BEHIND. WE PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BUT WE WERE STILL BLOCKING TRAFFIC. IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND AFTER THEY CHARGED US $125 JUST FOR CHECKING IT, THEY DISCOVERED IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR. THE PART AND THE LABOR WILL BE $900.. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE AIR BAG SENSOR INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SEAT WIRING HARNESS WAS FAULTY. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE REOCCURRED APPROXIMATELY 4,000 MILES LATER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000.

MY ALTERNATOR FAILED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, LUCKILY I WAS IN THE VERY RIGHT LANE AND WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. HAD I BEEN IN ANY OTHER LANES IT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT! ALL OF MY ELECTRONICS AND POWER STEERING SHUT OFF WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT DODGE WILL NOT PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF MY ALTERNATOR BECAUSE MY WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED AND MY VIN# DOES NOT MATCH CERTAIN SPECIFICS WITHIN THIS RECALL, EVEN THOUGH MY CAR WAS BUILT BETWEEN THOSE DATES RECALL NUMBER : 14V634000 RECALL DATE : 10/08/2014 COMPONENT ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:ALTERNATOR/GENERATOR/REGULATOR SUMMARY CHRYSLER GROUP LLC (CHRYSLER) IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2011-2014 CHRYSLER 300, DODGE CHARGER, CHALLENGER, AND DURANGO; AND 2012-2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE VEHICLES MANUFACTURED APRIL 22, 2010, TO JANUARY 2, 2014, AND EQUIPPED WITH A 3.6L ENGINE AND A 160 AMP ALTERNATOR. IN THE AFFECTED VEHICLES, THE ALTERNATOR MAY SUDDENLY FAIL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, IT FAILED TO START. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE STALLED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,087.

MY CAR WOULDN'T START. IT WAS TOWED TO STAMPEDE DODGE NAMPA IDAHO AND THEY DIAGNOSED IT TO BE: FAILED FUEL PUMPS. I'VE NOT HAD MY VEHICLE FOR ALMOST A MONTH AND ITS $1500 REPAIR.

WENT TO PUT FUEL INTO THE TANK AND NOTHING MADE IT IN. OVER 10 GALLONS OF GAS SPILLED ON THE GROUND UNDER THE SUV AND THEN SPREAD ACROSS THE GAS STATION TARMAC BEFORE I REALIZED IT AND SHUT THE PUMP OFF. SCARY SITUATION AS IT COULD HAVE IGNITED CAUSING AN EXPLOSION AND INJURIES, DEATH, AND DESTRUCTION!! TOOK IT INTO THE A DEALER AND THEY "FOUND THE FUEL FILLER HOSE TO BE INSUFFICIENTLY ATTACHED TO THE INLET OF THE GAS TANK".
