2011 DODGE DURANGO Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V813000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAD EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. AN UNKNOWN DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT PARTS WERE NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE ENGINE DEVELOPED A MISFIRE ON CYLINDER 3. AFTER DIAGNOSES, IT TURNED OUT THE LIFTER FOR THAT CYLINDER HAD FAILED, AND THE CAMSHAFT LOBE WAS GROUND DOWN, CAUSING A MISFIRE. SADLY THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE. WE HAVE ONLY 90K MILES ON OUR VERY WELL MAINTAINED DURANGO.

MY CAR GETS STUCK IN 4LOW WHEN IN AWD. CAR STALLS ALL THE TIME THEY HAVE NOT FIXED THAT RECALL AS OF YET. MY CHECK ENGINE COMES ON AND TIRE SENSORS TO 0 ON ALL SIDES WHEN TIRES ARE FINE. I CAN'T TURN LEFT OR RIGHT WITHOUT CLUNKING JERKING. DODGE DEALER KNOWS THE TRANSFER CASES HAVE ISSUES BUT NO RECALLS. THE DODGE FORUM IS FULL OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT SAME ISSUE HAPPENING TO LEAST 20 OTHERS I HAVE SEEN SO FAR. I'M BEING CHARGED ABOUT $5000 TO CHANGE TRANSFER SWITCH AND CASE NOW. BUT WITH SO MANY OF US WHY HASN'T THIS BEEN RECALLED. I THINK THE WHOLE PROBLEM IS OUR COMPUTERS ARE FAULTY. I HAVE ALL KINDS OF LIGHTS FLASHING UP AT TIMES FOR NO REASON AND NO CODES ARE FOUND WITH CEL ON. I WAS DRIVING OUT OF A STORE CAR PARK WHEN LIGHT FLASHED AND CAR GOT STUCK IN 4LOW NOW I LIVE ONLY TO GET TO IS FROM A HIGHWAY AND WHEN THAT IS 55MPH AND I CAN ONLY GO 20MPH WITH WIDE TURNS WE HAVE AN ISSUE.

RFUEL PUMP RELAY RECALL, SEPT. 2019. NO PART AVAILABLE, OR KNOW WHEN PART WILL BE AVAILABLE. VECH. HESITATES BUT HAS NOT DIED OUT YET. TIRED OF WAITING. WILL BUY A FORD NEXT TIME.

A RECALL FOR THE FUEL PUMP RELAY WAS ISSUED 8 MONTHS AGO AND NO REMEDY IS AVAILABLE YET. THE LETTER I RECEIVED STATES THAT IT CAN CAUSE AN ENGINE STALL RESULTING IN A CRASH. DOES THE MANUFACTURER HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM WITHIN A SPECIFIED AMOUNT OF TIME? ACCORDING TO YOUR WEBSITE, THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD 8 RECALLS. WHAT OPTIONS DO I HAVE?

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH AND THE CAR STALLED SHORTLY AFTER THE ETC INDICATOR LIGHT STARTED FLASHING NEXT TO A "FCW OFF" AND ORANGE TRIANGLES APPEARED IN MY SIDE VIEW MIRRORS. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, ACC OFF INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON ALONG SIDE WITH THE ESC LIGHT. IT STARTED BACK UP SO I TOOK IT TO FIRESTONE FOR A DIAGNOSTIC, THEY SAID IT WAS SOME MINOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES BUT THE TORQUE CONVERTER ON THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE FIXED FIRST AND INFORMED ME THAT THEY DIDNT DO ANY TRANSMISSION WORK.THEY REFERRED ME TO A-TEAM TRANSMISSIONS, TOOK IT A GOT A SECOND DIAGNOSTIC AND I WAS TOLD THAT IT WASN'T A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM BUT SUGGESTED IT WAS THE ABS SYSTEM. THEY SAID THEY DIDNT WORK ON IT SO I TOOK IT TO A THIRD AUTO CARE SHOP AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR. HAD IT CLEANED AND THE PROBLEM STILL RESULTED IN JERKING, LOSING COMPRESSION, AND OCCASIONALLY WANTING TO STALL. I COULDN'T GET A STRAIGHT AND I DIDN'T WANT TO PAY FOR ANYMORE DIAGNOSTICS. HOOKED UP MY OBD II DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM AND THE ONLY CODES I GOT WERE P0113, P0300, P0304, AND P0340. PARKED MY CAR IN MY BACK YARD AND TRIED TO AVOID USING IT UNTIL IT HAS BEEN FIXED.

HAVE TRIED THREE TIME TO GET MCKENNY DODGE TO FIX SAFETY RECALL FOR TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE BUT CONTINUE TO BE TOLD THE PARTS FOR A FIX HAVE NOT BEEN PROVIDED. EARLIER THIS YEAR THE CAR INTERMITTENTLY LOST POWER AND THEY REPLACED THE OIL PUMP ($1432). NOW I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY REPLACED CAM POSITION SENSOR ($280) BUT 'CHECK ENGINE LIGHT' STILL ON AND PROBLEM STILL EXISTS SO NOW THEY WANT TO REPLACE THE OIL PRESSURE SWITCH AND OIL FILTER HOUSING FOR OVE $1,000. BUT WITH NO ASSURANCE THAT IT FIXES THE PROBLEM. COULD THE RECALL ISSUE WITH YHE INTERNAL FUEL PUMP RELAY BE CAUSING THE INTERMITTENT HESITATION. WHY WOULD THIS RECALL THAT COULD CAUSE 'AN INTERMITTENT OR FAILED FUEL PUMP RELAY' THAT COULD 'CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STALL WHILE DRIVING AND CAUSE A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING' NOT BE FIXED AFTER BEING IDENTIFIED OVER A YEAR AGO.
