2012 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

I purchased my 2012 Dodge Durango two years ago and it has been one of the most stressful issues I have ever hadz. Two days after purchasing it all the lights lit up my dash board the head lights wouldn’t go on the heater or air wouldn’t work and my windows in front would not roll down. This usually happens when I start it in the morning but it also will happen when I’m driving I almost got into a accident on the HWY at 530 in the morning coming to work when my head light just shut off. It has been back to the deal shop I bought it 3 dodge dealer ships and my personal mechanic and they can not find out what the issue is. Over the past two years it has been in the shop bout 10-15 times It has been parked more than I have been able to drive it. I am in a loan I can not get out of.

Had the recall for shutting down repair again and still having the same problem. I've spent over $2000 In diagnosed fees with dealership and private shops and still having the same problem. Yes the fuel pump relay was replaced 2 times. Still having the same problem it will start back up but locks the steering wheel to where you can't turn it. Which almost was in a accident but was able to stop before. It's happens every month but was told not to bring it back to the dealership as they cant find the problem as all recalls were repaired.

My power locks and windshield wiper fluid pump stopped working. I took the vehicle to the nearest dealership over an hour away. After many days and an expensive car rental, the TIPM needed replacing. After researching this issue, it is DIRECTLY correlated to a dangerous issue that resulted in a lawsuit in 2015. Additionally, the recall associated with the TIPM is not fixable at this point because Dodge doesn't have parts. So, the TIPM I was given in this repair is dangerous. This was a $1067 repair for a vehicle that has 80k miles.

I am trying to submit a report that a Dealer is not providing me service for a recall but there isn't a link to do so, only a missive telling me that i should. I am being told by the dealer that the parts to fix the Fuel pump relay problem on the 2012 Dodge Durango are in a National shortage at the moment but they will not provide me with documentation that proves this so i am unable to ship my vehicle home.

Was driving on Hwy at 65 mph. Rear drivers side tire blew out. Sidewall split and cause the tread to detach. Caliber Collision has pictures of the damage. I had to immediately pull to the side of a busy hwy at dusk. Just managed to get off the road. Called 911 but they didn’t stop to talk to us. AAA towed me to Caliber Collision. Total damages were $10,587.67. Car was totaled by USAA insurance. No warning ahead of time and the tire was 3 years old. Less than 25,000 miles put on it. Warning came on as I was pulling over after the flat but it was too late. Now I have an accident on my record when I only collided with the ground by the flat.
