2013 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

MY CHRYSLER DEALER HAS FAILED TO REPLACE CHRYSLER'S RECALLED BRAKE BOOSTER AND SHIELD WITHIN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME. I TOOK MY 2013 DODGE DURANGO TO THE PREMIER CHRYSLERJEEP DODGE RAM OF TRACY, CALIFORNIA BACK IN JUNE 2014; THEY TESTED THE CAR AND SAID THEY WOULD CONTACT ME WHEN THE REPLACEMENT BRAKE BOOSTER AND SHIELD WERE IN STOCK. I'VE CALLED TWICE SINCE THEN AND WAS TOLD THAT PARTS ARE STILL NOT IN STOCK. I FEEL THIS IS AN UNREASONABLE WAIT FOR A RECALL THAT POSES A THREAT TO THE SAFETY OF ME AND MY FAMILY. *TR

PURCHASED VEHICLE IN NOV 2013. RECEIVED RECALL FOR BRAKE BOOSTER IN MAY 2014 (P14/NHTSA 14V-154). CALLED AND SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT. DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THEY WOULD CALL WHEN THE PART WAS RECEIVED. NO CALL TO DATE. RECEIVED SECOND RECALL NOTICE VIA MAIL ON 12/26/14. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT COMING IN VERY QUICKLY. RECOMMENDED I FILE THIS COMPLAINT WITH THE NHTSA. ALSO STATED THAT THEY WERE DOING THE SECOND RECALL FOR SUN VISOR WIRING, RECEIVED IN AUG 2014, IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER, WHEN/IF THE PARTS ARRIVE. (P36/NHTSA 14V-391). THIS REPORT IS FILED TO COMPLY WITH THE DIRECTIONS OF THE RECALL THAT STATE "IF YOUR DEALER FAILS OR IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THE DEFECT WITHOUT CHARGE AND WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME, YOU MAY SUBMIT A WRITTEN COMPLAINT TO THE ADMINISTRATOR".

P14 RECALL ON BRAKE BOOSTER. RECEIVED 2ND NOTICE TODAY AND HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES ALL 3 TIMES I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WILL NOT LOOK AT THE RECALLED PART AS THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS IN STOCK TO REPLACE. I CALLED CHRYSLER RECALL GROUP AND THEY CAN'T GUARANTEE THE PARTS TO BE AVAILABLE, ONLY TO CALL OTHER DEALERSHIPS TO SEE WHAT CAN BE DONE. ON TOP OF THIS I NOW HAVE A ALTERNATOR RECALL THAT I AM ON A "WAIT LIST" LIKE I HAVE BEEN SINCE JUNE FOR THE BRAKE BOOSTER. *TR

WE WERE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN WE HEARD A POP THEN IT SOUNDED LIKE A BAG WAS STUCK TO THE ROOF OF OUR CAR AND WAS FLAPPING IN THE WIND. WE STARTED TO OPEN THE SUNROOF SHADE WHEN WE NOTICED THE SUNROOF GLASS WAS BROKEN. WE WERE NOT HIT BY ANY ROAD DEBRIS AND AFTER STOPPING TO LOOK OVER THE DAMAGE WE NOTICED THE SUNROOF GLASS WAS BLOWN OUT NOT IN. THE LEFT OVER SUNROOF GLASS ON THE DRIVER SIDE CORNER WAS STICKING UP. WE BELIEVE THE SUNROOF GLASS EXPLODED OUT. *TR

SAFETY RECALL P60/NHTSA 14V-634 STATES DRIVER WILL HAVE LIMITED OR NO DETECTION OF THE ALTERNATOR FAILING, WHICH CAN RESULT IN VEHICLE SHUTDOWN WHILE DRIVING AND/OR AN UNDERHOOD ELECTRICAL FIRE. RECEIVED NOTICE IN MAIL NOVEMBER 2014. STILL DO NOT HAVE PARTS TO FIX. I AM DRIVING AN UNSAFE CAR EVERYDAY AND PAYING FOR IT AND NOBODY CAN DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT UNTIL I EXPERIENCE A CRASH. I CAN GET A TICKET FOR NOT WEARING A SEAT BELT AND TALKING ON A CELL PHONE, BUT A SAFETY RECALL ON A CAR I AM DRIVING EVERYDAY, WHICH EFFECTS ME, MY PASSENGERS AND ALL CARS ON THE ROAD DOES NOT SEEM TO MATTER TO CHRYSLER. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 14V154000 (SERVICE BRAKES) AND 14V634000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE DELAY AND COULD NOT PROVIDE AN ESTIMATED DATE FOR WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD RECEIVE THE RECALL REPAIRS. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

THERE HAVE BEEN 6 RECALLS ON MY CAR. I HAVE HAD MY NAME ON THE WAITING LIST AT MY DEALER, ONLY TO BE TOLD IT COULD BE ABOUT A YEAR. I KEEP GETTING RECALL LETTERS AS I'M WAITING FOR ONE THING AND NO PARTS AVAILABLE FOR ANOTHER. I ALWAYS HAVE CHILDREN IN MY CAR AND FEEL EXTREMELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE EVERYDAY. THE WEATHER IS GETTING DANGEROUS AND ONE OF THE RECALLS IS ON MY BRAKES. I WAS TOLD, "DON'T WORRY, IT SHOULD BE OK UNTIL THE WINTER." WELL, THE WINTER IS HERE AND I STILL HAVE ABOUT 6 MONTHS LEFT ON THE WAITING LIST. HOW IS ONE SUPPOSED TO DRIVE AND FEEL SAFE, KNOWING MY CAR CAN "STALL WITHOUT WARNING", HAVE AN "UNDER HOOD FIRE" OR HAVE MY "BRAKES FAIL" AT ANY MOMENT WHILE IN DRIVING? WHAT'S EVEN WORSE IS, THERE'S NOWHERE TO TURN BECAUSE EVERYWHERE I CALL "SORRY MAAM, THERE AREN'T ANY PARTS.." GREAT! NOW I'M LOST AND RISKING MY LIFE ON A DAY TO DAY BASIS. HELP!!! *TR
