THE DATE AND MILEAGE ABOVE ARE APPROXIMATIONS. I PURCHASED A 2011 DODGE DURANGO IN NOVEMBER OF 2012. WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IT ONLY HAD ABOUT 24,000 MILES ON IT. A COUPLE OF MONTHS AFTER I GOT IT, I WAS GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE RPMS WENT CRAZY. MY ENGINE WAS REVVING UP, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS STALLED. I HAD TO PUT IT IN NEUTRAL, THEN PUT IT IN DRIVE TO GET THE TRANSMISSION TO CHANGE GEAR. SINCE THAT TIME, I HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM OCCUR ON AT LEAST 5 OTHER OCCASIONS. THE LATEST INCIDENT WAS ON SATURDAY, 3/7/2015. THE RPMS WERE GOING CRAZY AS IF I WAS GUNNING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE DID NOT STALL, BUT IT WAS BARELY MOVING. I HAD TO STOP, PUT IT IN NEUTRAL, AND THEN PUT IT BACK IN DRIVE. IT DROVE FINE AFTER THAT, BUT I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO STOP MY VEHICLE ON A PUBLIC ROAD TO GET THE TRANSMISSION TO CHANGE GEARS. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT MY VEHICLE WILL STALL, CAUSING A WRECK. I AM SURPRISED THIS PROBLEM HAS NOT RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT YET. MY VEHICLE DOES NOT EVEN HAVE 52,000 MILES ON IT, AND THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. THE DURANGO IS THE ONLY VEHICLE MY FAMILY OWNS, SO IF THE TRANSMISSION FAILS, WE WILL HAVE NO WAY TO GO ANYWHERE. I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO GET THE TRANSMISSION LOOKED AT, MUCH LESS TO GET THE PART(S) THAT MAY BE REQUIRED TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. I WANT A RELIABLE VEHICLE THAT I CAN FEEL SAFE DRIVING. *TR

ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I'VE HAD MY DURANGO BACK TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE STALLING ISSUE. THEY ALLEGE THAT ALL REPAIRS WERE COMPLETED IN LATE NOVEMBER. I THEN WENT OUT OF TOWN ON BUSINESS FOR TWO MONTHS. I CAME BACK IN LATE JANUARY, AND THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO STALL ON ME WHILE DRIVING. THEY SAID THE WARRANTY WORK WAS DONE ON THE FUEL PUMP RELAY IN NOVEMBER. WHEN I TOOK IT BACK IN FEBRUARY, THEY REPLACED THE COMPUTER AND THE KEYS BECAUSE THEY SAID THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SHUTTING DOWN BECAUSE THE COMPUTER DIDN'T RECOGNIZE THAT THE KEY WAS IN THE VEHICLE AND IT SHUT DOWN TO PREVENT THE VEHICLE FROM BEING STOLEN. ON FEBRUARY 26TH, IT STALLED WHILE DRIVING AGAIN. I LEFT A VOICE MAIL FOR THE DEALERSHIP WITH NO RETURN PHONE CALL. ON MARCH 1ST, THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING AGAIN. THE VEHICLE IS NOW BACK IN THE DEALERSHIP. *TR

ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING AT A CONSTANT SPEED OF 25, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED, LURCHING FORWARD, THEN BACKED OFF, THEN ACCELERATED AGAIN. IT DID THIS A NUMBER OF TIMES THAT DAY. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND STOPPED UNTIL THE VEHICLE QUIT TRYING TO ACCELERATE. I WAS DRIVING ON SNOW/ICE AND IT SCARED THE HECK OUT OF ME; I WAS LUCKY NOT TO WRECK BECAUSE I HIT THE BRAKES TO COUNTER THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION WHICH CAUSED ME TO SLIDE. THE VEHICLE DID THE SAME THING THE NEXT DAY WHILE TRAVELING AT A CONSTANT SPEED OF 45, AND AGAIN ON FEBRUARY 24TH AND TODAY, FEBRUARY 25TH. YESTERDAY, FEBRUARY 24TH, IT DID IT WHILE IN HEAVILY CONGESTED TRAFFIC WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 15 MPH. THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION STARTLED ME BECAUSE IT LURCHED ME TOWARD THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME AND I HAD TO SLAM ON MY BRAKES. *JS

WAS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH OUR CAR STARTING AND TOOK IT IN AND WAS ADVISED THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TIPM OUR WARRANTY DID NOT COVER THE REPAIRS SO HAD TO WAIT ABOUT 4 MONTHS TO FIX IT AS IT WAS A $1200.00 OUT OF POCKET EXPENSE. AFTER THEY FIXED THAT PROBLEM ONLY A YEAR AFTER I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE THEY ADVISED THAT MY TRANS COOLER WAS LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID AND IT WOULD COST APPROXIMATELY $900.00 TO FIX THAT. MY CO-WORKER HAS THE SAME MODEL DURANGO AND HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. POOR MANUFACTURING I GUESS, I HOPE THEY ISSUE A RECALL THIS IS RIDICULOUS TO HAVE A CAR ONLY TWO YEARS AND HAVE TO MAKE TWO MAJOR REPAIRS ON IT. NOT HAPPY WITH THE DODGE DURANGO AT ALL!!! *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING AT 70MPH ON A FLAT ROAD (81 SOUTH IN VIRGINIA) IN THE RAIN, THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND GPS WENT DEAD. THE DIALS ALL WENT DOWN TO ZERO, THE COMPUTER READ-OUT IN THE CENTER CLUSTER WENT BLACK, AND THE GPS WENT BLACK. AT THE SAME TIME, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER (AND SPEED) BUT DID NOT STALL. AFTER ONLY A FEW SECONDS THE DIALS STARTED WORKING AGAIN, THE COMPUTER READ-OUT IN THE CENTER CLUSTER CAME BACK ON, AND THE GPS TURNED BACK ON. ALSO, THE POWER CAME BACK AND I REGAINED MY SPEED. THE POWER OUTAGE CLEARED MY TRIP ODOMETER READINGS AND CLEARED TO ZERO AND MY GPS SAVED SETTINGS, SUCH AS HOME AND ADDRESS BOOK, WERE CLEARED. I DID NOT APPLY THE BRAKES AND THERE WAS NO CRASH. THERE HAVE BEEN SPORADIC LOSSES OF POWER SINCE AND MY INSTRUMENT DIALS FLICKER, HOWEVER THEY HAVE NOT GONE OUT TOTALLY LIKE THEY DID JANUARY 23RD. DAYS BEFORE THE INCIDENT, I HAD TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO A LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP FOR RECALL WORK ON THE FUEL PUMP. *TR
