My 2021 Dodge Durango has an unresolved Safety Recall 66B / NHTSA Recall 24V-436 involving the radio software and rearview camera functionality. I brought the vehicle to an authorized Dodge dealership and specifically asked about the unresolved recall and the required radio software update. The dealership attempted to perform the required updates but told me the radio would not accept or complete the updates. I was then told that the radio would need to be replaced at a cost of approximately $1,300. The vehicle’s center display and other radio functions continue to operate. Apple CarPlay connects and displays properly, including Apple CarPlay Maps, and the screen displays music information and the elapsed time as though audio is playing. The rearview camera displays properly most of the time. Occasionally when the vehicle is placed in reverse I have to put it back in park to get the camera to appear. Safety-related sounds, including the seatbelt warning and emergency/hazard warning sounds, also continue to function. The back up sounds beep fine. The primary audio/music playback is what is not producing sound. The dealership has not provided me with written diagnostic results, specific error codes, or documentation explaining why the recall software update could not be completed or establishing that the radio hardware itself has failed. My concern is that an open safety recall has not been successfully remedied on my vehicle. Instead of completing the recall software remedy, I have been told that I need to pay for a replacement radio. I am requesting that NHTSA review whether the recall remedy is being properly handled when the radio will not accept the required software update. The issue has been confirmed by the Dodge dealership, but I have not been provided documentation identifying the specific failure that prevented the recall update from being completed. Stellantis corporate case management is also reviewing the matter.

Dodge Durango daytime running lights are a known problem. Running lights commonly stop working on 2020+ Dodge Durango’s. It is not a replaceable bulb, the entire headlight assembly must be replaced. This is a safety concern as many people do not turn their lights on while driving in fog. Dodge needs to be held responsible for this faulty part.

I am filing a safety complaint regarding the defective rear liftgate LED taillamp assembly (“racetrack” lighting) on my 2021 Dodge Durango GT. Sections of the LED lighting have burned out and no longer illuminate, reducing rear visibility and creating a potential collision hazard, particularly at night or during poor weather conditions. No dashboard warning lights or messages appeared to alert me to the failure. This failure is consistent with the manufacturing defect addressed by Stellantis in its recently announced warranty extension for certain 2018–2024 Dodge Durango vehicles. On October 27, 2026, I brought my vehicle to an authorized Dodge dealership and presented the applicable service bulletin. Despite the visibly failed LEDs and the documented warranty extension, dealership personnel stated that no warranty extension applied to my vehicle. Following an approximately 45-minute telephone conversation with Dodge Customer Care, I was informed that coverage is VIN-specific and that my vehicle was not included in the affected population. This is concerning because my vehicle falls within the specified model-year range and exhibits the same reported failure. Dodge representatives stated that nothing could be done and advised me to file a complaint with NHTSA. I believe the manufacturer’s affected-vehicle population may be improperly limited, excluding vehicles experiencing the same defect. I request that NHTSA investigate the scope of this failure, the potential safety implications, and whether additional vehicles should be included in the manufacturer’s corrective action. The vehicle can be made available for inspection upon request.

The rear license plate light burned out and I was pulled over. I ordered 2 new lights and installed them. Neither worked. I put the old lights back in and then both stopped working. Then the race track light failed. Additionally, the front headlight race track also failed. This is a know manufacturing defect in these cars and nothing is being done about it. Took the vehicle to a repair shop and they said the entire rear race track needs replaced. The part is 1800 and back ordered until 2027. The labor is an additional 1500. This is totally unacceptable and the car should be repaired at no cost. There is literally a class action law suit going on over this well documented issue.
