ON MAY 31, 2018 WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE IN THE RAIN, MY FRONT LEFT MOLDING WHEEL FLARE FLEW OFF OF MY 2014 DODGE DURANGO. THERE WERE NO HAZARDS IN THE ROADWAY AND I DID NOT HIT ANYTHING THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED IT TO FLY OFF. THERE HAD ALSO BEEN NO PREVIOUS SIGNS THAT IT WAS LOSE OR ABOUT TO COME OFF, IT JUST SIMPLY FLEW OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE AFTERWARDS ALSO DID NOT INDICATE ANY DAMAGE TO THE WHEEL HUB AREA THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED THE WHEEL FLARE TO DETACH.

ONLY HAD CAR TWO YEARS SUNDAY DASH BOARDS STARTS FLICKING ON AND OFF DISCONNECTED MY UCONNECT. ON MONDAY MY THROTTLE LIGHT AND ENGINE LINE CAME ON ON TUESDAY IT WAS OFF. NOW CAR WILL ONLY START WITH A JUMP SITTING IN CARLOT 4 DODGES BEING SERVICED FOR ELECTRIC COMPUTER PROBLEMS. NOW NONE OF MY LIGHTS ON BATTERY IS GOOD BUT CAR WON'T START. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE CHECKED ASAP.

I RECEIVED AN URGENT WARNING VIA POST CARD REQUIRING A FIX TO THE BRAKE TRANSMISSION SHIFT INTERLOCK IN JULY 2018. DEALER CANNOT INSTALL FIX UNTIL JANUARY 2019. THIS IS NOT TIMELY.

FOR MONTHS NOW, I HAVE HAD TO COMPLAIN TO MY DODGE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED MY 2013 DODGE DURANGO AND GET IT SERVICED ABOUT HOW IT SUDDENLY STALLS WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE ASSOCIATED IT WITH HITTING A BUMP SUCH AS A POTHOLE OR GOING OVER RAILROAD TRACKS AND IT WILL DIE OUT AND I HAVE TO PUT IT IN PARK. IT WILL THEN START RIGHT BACK UP. IT HAS HAPPENED ON CITY STREETS AS WELL AS HIGHWAYS. NO CODES ARE SHOWING UP AND BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHECK OUT FINE. CABLES ALL HAVE A GOOD CONNECTION AND FUSES ARE SAID TO BE GOOD. I GET TOLD "HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL IT GETS WORSE" OR "YOU'LL HAVE TO LEAVE IT WITH US SO WE CAN DRIVE IT AND WAIT FOR IT TO DO IT" BUT THIS IS MY ONLY VEHICLE AND IT MAY DO IT NUMEROUS TIMES ONE DAY AND WILL NEVER DO IT AGAIN OVER THE NEXT MONTH. IT'S RANDOM. I HAVE NOTICED THERE WAS AN ALTERNATOR RECALL ON 2011-14 YR MAKES OF THE DURANGOS BUT MY VIN SHOWS MINE IS CLEAR AND THE FUEL PUMP RELAY RECALL HAS BEEN FIXED. SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY NOT RIGHT.

REAR RACE TRACK LIGHTING WORKS INTERMITTENTLY, CAUSING NO LIGHTS ON THE LICENCE PLATE AT NIGHT. LED LIGHTING BURNT OUT IN AREAS WHEN WORKING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IT HAS HAPPENED AND VERY EXPENSIVE FIX!

2 WEEKS AGO MY STEERING WENT OUT. MY MECHANIC SAYS THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING IS FAULTY AND THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER AND NO ONE CAN TELL HIM WHEN IT MIGHT BE AVAILABLE BUT THE MANUFACTURER DID TELL HIM THAT THERE ARE 160 CUSTOMERS WAITING ON THIS PART. I AM CURRENTLY WITHOUT A VEHICLE DUE TO THIS, AS ARE THE OTHER 159 CUSTOMERS WAITING.
