I WAS DRIVING MY 2004 DODGE DURANGO 5.7 HEMI AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN I HEARD A LOUD CLANKING NOISE COMING FROM MY ENGINE. I TURNED IT OFF AND CALLED A TOW TRUCK TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A GARAGE. I WAS TOLD BY THE MECHANIC THAT THE ENGINE WAS DEAD AND IT HAD BLOWN A ROD AND COULD NOT BE FIXED. IT HAS BEEN MAINTAINED AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT IN 2004 UP UNTIL TWO WEEKS AGO WHEN I HAD IT INSPECTED AND THE OIL CHANGED. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE ENGINES AND SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE ABOUT IT. *TR

MY WIFE STARTED UP THE VEHICLE TO TAKE OUR KID TO SCHOOL. WHEN SHE STARTED IT, IT WAS MAKING A HORRIBLE CLUNKING NOISE AND VIBRATING VIGOROUSLY. SHE IMMEDIATELY KILLED IT AND TOLD ME WHAT HAPPENED WHEN I GOT HOME FROM WORK. I STARTED IT UP AND I IMMEDIATELY KNEW THAT THE ENGINE WAS GONE. THE NEXT MORNING I NOTICED AN OIL SHEEN ON THE GROUND IN FRONT OF THE DURANGO. I HAVE READ MANY THINGS ONLINE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND WOULD LIKE FOR DODGE TO FIX MY VEHICLE. I HAVE KEPT THE OIL CHANGED IN IT REGULARLY AND DONE ALL REQUIRED MAINTENANCE. I AM IN THE MILITARY AND NEED THIS VEHICLE FOR MY WIFE. I CANNOT AFFORD TO FIX THIS OUT OF POCKET. *TR

STARTED MY DURANGO AS I HAD THE DAY BEFORE, TO A SOUND SIMILAR OF ROCKS HAVING BEEN THROWN INTO THE MOTOR. I IMMEDIATELY TURNED IT OFF THINKING THERE WAS SOMETHING, ANIMAL OR STICK, STUCK IN MOTOR OR FAN. OPEN HOOD ONLY TO FIND NOTHING VISIBLY SEEN TO CAUSE SUCH A NOISE. STARTED AGAIN TO THE SAME HORRIBLE SOUND AND TURNED OFF IMMEDIATELY. CALLED A VERY REPUTABLE NEIGHBOR WITH LIFETIME EXPERIENCE AND WORKING EXPERIENCE IN THE MOTOR VEHICLE FIELD. UPON STARTING HE IMMEDIATELY KNEW THE PROBLEM...THAT MY 81,000 FULLY MAINTAINED DODGE DURANGO THAT I OWE 4 MONTHS PAYMENTS ON YET, DRIVE 1/2 MILE TO WORK DAILY,WITH NO WARNING WHATSOEVER HAD A BLOWN MOTOR DUE TO THE FACT THAT A CHEAP PART, BELOW PREVIOUS DODGE QUALITY HAD BEEN INSTALLED AND CAUSED THIS TO HAPPEN.WE HAD PLANNED ON DRIVING OUT OF TOWN TO GET MY DAUGHTERS EYES CHECKED THE DAY BEFORE BUT WAS UNABLE TO AFFORD THE GAS DURING THIS TIME OF YEAR DUE TO BEING UNEMPLOYED LOSING HOME AND HAVING TO TAKE A JOB THREE TIMES LESS PAY THAN PREVIOUS. THANK GOD DAILY THAT WE DID NOT BECAUSE THE OUTCOME COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE KNOWING WE COULD HAVE BEEN TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE AND HAD THIS HAPPEN. MY FAMILY HAS ALWAYS BOUGHT AND SUPPORTED DODGE/CHRYSLER VEHICLES BUT FROM THIS POINT FORWARD WE WILL NO LONGER SUPPORT DUE TO THE LACK OF SUPPORT, QUALITY AND CARE OF THE DODGE/ CHRYSLER INDUSTRY TODAY! PAID FOR YOUR BUYOUT AGAIN! *TR

I HAVE HAD MY TRUCK SINCE FEB OF THIS YEAR AND HAVE NOT HAD ANY MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH IT. THE ONLY ISSUE THAT I HAVE HAD IS THAT WHEN IT RAINS OR WHEN WE GO THROUGH THE CAR WASH IT STALLS AND ACTS LIKE IT WANTS TO CUT OFF. I INFORMED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT A MAJOR ISSUE AND TO BRING IN AFTER THE HOLIDAYS AND IT WAS OK TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE IT. I HAVE KEPT THE MAINTENANCE CURRENT AND JUST RECENTLY GOT AN OIL CHANGE. ON CHRISTMAS NIGHT, I TOOK MY FATHER HOME WHO LIVES ABOUT 30 MILES AWAY FROM ME AND CAME STRAIGHT BACK HOME AND PARKED THE TRUCK. NO ISSUES OR PROBLEMS. LATER THE NEXT NIGHT, I WENT OUT TO START IT TO GO TO THE STORE AND IT WOULD NOT START. IT HAD RAINED EARLIER THAT DAY AND IT WAS COLD SO I JUST THOUGHT THAT MAYBE I NEEDED A JUMP. IT WAS LATE SO I DIDN'T WORRY ABOUT GETTING ONE FROM ANYONE. THE NEXT MORNING I GOT UP EARLY TO TRY TO START IT AGAIN AND STILL NOTHING, SO I ASKED MY NEIGHBOR FOR A JUMP. WHEN HE TRIED TO JUMP MY TRUCK IT MADE A HORRIBLE NOISE SO WE STOPPED AND I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED. THEY SENT TWO OF THEIR MECHANICS OVER TO MY HOUSE TO TRY AND JUMP IT AND THEY WAS SHOCKED BY THE NOISE THEY HEARD. THEY INITIALLY THOUGHT IT MAY BE THE STARTER AND THEY ALSO VERIFIED THAT ALL MY FLUIDS WERE FULL. THEY ENDED UP TOWING MY TRUCK BACK TO THEIR DEALERSHIP AND A FEW HOURS LATER THEY CALLED AND TOLD ME MY ENGINE LOCKED UP....THIS WAS SO DEVASTATING FOR ME TO HEAR BECAUSE THEY TOLD ME THE REPAIR WOULD BE $3000. I HAVE NOT HAD THE VEHICLE A YEAR YET AND AM A SINGLE MOTHER OF TWO KIDS. THIS PROBLEM IS VERY COMMON WITH THE SAME TRUCK THAT I HAVE WITH THE HEMI ENGINE. I TRADED MY BLAZER IN FOR THIS ONE TO BE ABLE TO HAVE SOMETHING RELIABLE AND REALLY LOVE THE TRUCK BUT CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL SINCE THERE HAVE BEEN SO MANY OF THE SAME PROBLEMS. *TR

STARTED VEHICLE AND HEARD A LOUD BANGING NOISE FROM THE 5.7 HEMI ENGINE. TOOK TO A CERTIFIED MECHANIC AND LEARNED THAT IT HAD THROWN A ROD CAUSING FATAL DAMAGE TO THE MOTOR. AFTER CONDUCTING RESEARCH THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE THAT HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED BY DODGE. SUPPOSEDLY THEY USED INSUFFICIENT METAL QUALITY WHEN BUILDING THIS ENGINE. THEY NEED TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS WELL DOCUMENTED ISSUE. I'M WORRIED THAT OTHERS COULD EXPERIENCE AN ENGINE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING RESULTING IN A POSSIBLE CASUALTY. PLEASE ADVISE OTHERS OF THIS ISSUE. *TR

HOW MANY MORE DODGE DURANGO 2004 IS IT GOING TO TAKE TO INVESTIGATE. CHRYSLER IS RECALLING 2012 VEHICLES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM, WHAT MOST OF THE COMPLAINTS ARE ABOUT, ENGINE FAILURE, BLOWN ROD . IS IT GOING TO TAKING SOMEONE GETTING KILLED TO WAKE YOU UP? SEEMS LIKE SOMEONE IS NOT DOING THEIR JOB . DOESN'T ANYONE READ THE COMPLAINTS OTHER THAN OTHER 2004 DODGE OWNERS? *TR

I HAVE A DODGE DURANGO 2004 HEMI WITH APPROXIMATELY 124K MILES ON IT. THE CAR WAS DRIVING FINE FOR ME AND MY FAMILY UNTIL THIS MORNING WHEN I TRIED TO START MY CAR, IT WAS MAKING A LOUD NOISE LIKE THERE WAS ROCKS IN THE ENGINE. IT DOESN'T START UP LIKE NORMAL AND IF IT DOES YOU CAN'T EVEN DRIVE IT. SOUNDS LIKE THE ENGINE IS IN PIECES. I'VE HEARD A LOT OF DODGE HEMI OWNER'S HAD A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THEIR ENGINE SEIZING UP WHILE THEY WERE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS AND EVERYTHING JUST COMPLETELY SHUT OFF ON THEM(VERY DANGEROUS). A LOT OF FORUMS THAT I READ ONLINE HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM THAT I'M HAVING. *TR

THIS MORNING I WENT TO START MY DODGE DURANGO AND THERE WAS A LOUD BANG FROM THE ENGINE. A CONNECTING ROD FAILED ON THE VEHICLE AND NOW THE ENGINE IS NOT REPAIRABLE ANYMORE. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY OR IN ANY OTHER EVERY DAY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHERE THE CAR WOULD BE INOPERABLE. SUCH A FAILURE SHOULD NOT HAPPEN TO A VEHICLE THAT HAS 95K ON IT. I FEEL THAT DODGE SHOULD OWN UP TO A DESIGN FLAW ON THE ENGINE, BECAUSE I HAVE READ A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THIS EXACT FAILURE AT AROUND THE SAME MILEAGE. I HAVE GOTTEN NO SUPPORT FROM DODGE ON THIS ISSUE EVEN CALLING THEIR CUSTOMER CARE ONLY TO HEAR THAT MY CAR HAS TOO MANY MILES FOR THEM TO HELP ME OUT. *TR

I PARKED THE CAR ON SATURDAY EVENING, DIDN'T DRIVE IT UNTIL MONDAY MORNING. ON MONDAY MORNING, I STARTED THE CAR, AND IT SOUNDED LIKE A BOX OF ROCKS IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. I TURNED OFF MY RADIO, AND TRIED IT AGAIN, WITH THE SAME RESULT. MY HUSBAND CAME OUT, AND TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS OIL POURING OUT OF UNDER THE CAR. THE DAY AND NIGHT PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT, IT HAD BEEN RAINING A LOT. NORMALLY, I PARK WITH THE FRONT OF THE CAR FACING UP HILL, BUT HAD GOTTEN HOME LATE, AND JUST PULLED STRAIGHT INTO MY PARKING SPOT WHICH PUT THE NOSE DOWN. AFTER THIS HAPPENED, I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET, AND SAW THAT THIS WAS HAPPENING TO MANY 2004 DURANGO OWNERS. I DO FEEL SOMEWHAT LUCKY SINCE MY MILEAGE WAS MUCH HIGHER THAN SOME OF THE OTHER FAILURE MILEAGES. WE HAVE ALWAYS MAINTAINED THE DURANGO, AND HAD ALL WORK DONE AT THE DEALERSHIP. I AM SO UPSET ABOUT THE FACT THAT I DIDN'T DRIVE MY DURANGO TO ITS EXPECTED 300,000 TO 400,000 MILE RANGE. I LOVE THIS VEHICLE, AND IT WAS MY GRADUATION PRESENT FROM MY HUSBAND. NOW, I HAVE TO FIGURE OUT SOME OTHER WAY TO GET MY 5 KIDS AND DOGS CAMPING! *TR

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
2004 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED 5.7L HEMI 4X4 MY VEHICLE WAS ALREADY RUNNING FOR APPROX 3-5 MINUTES, WARMING UP, AFTER I HAD FINISHED WORKING A FULL 12-HOUR NIGHT SHIFT. TIME IS 0640 HRS, OUTSIDE TEMP IS APPROX 30 DEGREES. VEHICLE RUNNING NORMAL, NO ALARMS, NO WARNING INDICATORS. I WAS PULLING OUT OF DRIVEWAY OF MY EMPLOYMENT ONTO THE ROADWAY AND ACCELERATING ON A COMPLETELY STRAIGHT ROADWAY. AS VEHICLE WAS PASSING 20-25MPH AND WITH NO FORE-WARNING, HEARD LOUD 'BANG' FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND VEHICLE STARTED SHAKING. VEHICLE'S REACTION WAS IMMEDIATE. VIOLENT VIBRATIONS, TAPPINGS AND METAL TO METAL SOUNDS, I IMMEDIATELY SHUT DOWN THE ENGINE AND DRIFTED OFF TO SIDE OF ROAD. MY VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN PUSHED OR WORKED HARD. NEVER HAULED HEAVY LOADS OR TRAILORED. BODY IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION AND VEHICLE MAINTENANCE HAS ALWAYS BEEN PERFORMED ON REGULAR BASIS (APPROX 1000 MILES INTO CURRENT OIL CHANGE). AT FIRST I THOUGHT I HAD THROWN THE SERPENTINE BELT, BUT WITHIN SECONDS I KNEW IT WAS MUCH WORSE, SHUTTING OFF THE ENGINE. TWO CHECKS OF THE OIL LEVEL, ASSURED ME THAT THERE WAS IN FACT OIL IN THE ENGINE. THERE WERE NO EXTERNAL LEAKS FOUND AND THERE DID NOT APPEAR TO BE ANY OIL/COOLANT MIXING. AFTER TOWING THE VEHICLE, TO MY MECHANIC, THEY HAVE SINCE REPORTED WHAT THEY BELIEVE TO BE AS A "CATASTROPHIC LOSS OF THE ENGINE". I HAVE REPORTED THIS FAILURE TO CHRYSLER CORP. AND THEY HAVE OPENED A CASE NUMBER FOR ME, BUT THEY HAVE NOT MADE ANY COMMITMENT, IF THEY WILL COVER THE FAILURE. AFTER SOME OF MY OWN INVESTIGATING, I HAVE DISCOVERED THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS, OF THE EXACT SAME NATURE AS MY FAILURE, WITH THIS IDENTICAL MAKE/MODEL YEAR AND 5.7L HEMI ENGINE, WITH MANY FAILURES OCCURRING IN THE 80-120K MILE RANGE (MY MILEAGE 97K). VERY ANGRY AND UPSET ABOUT THIS FAILURE, BUT THANKFUL I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OVER WITHOUT ANY FURTHER INCIDENT AND INJURY. *TR

WENT TO START CAR (WHICH RAN PERFECTLY WELL THE NIGHT PRIOR) AND SOUNDED LIKE ROCKS UNDER THE HOOD. WE HAVE BEEN VERY FAITHFUL WITH OIL CHANGES, IN FACT, HAD THE OIL CHANGED JUST 3 DAYS PRIOR TO INCIDENT, ALWAYS DONE AT THE DEALERSHIP, AND REGULAR MAINTENANCE COMPLETED. THERE WERE NO ENGINE LIGHTS OR WARNINGS. TOWED TO DEALERSHIP AND INFORMED THAT A ROD WAS BROKEN/THROWN AND DAMAGED THE LONG BLOCK. NOW LOOKING AT OVER $6000 FOR ENGINE REPLACEMENT. WHEN FINDING THAT MANY OTHERS WITH SAME CAR/ENGINE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES, I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED THAT A RECALL HASN'T BEEN DONE, OR A CONSUMER SAFETY REPORT ISSUED. HAD THIS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING, IT COULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC. THE MANUFACTURER NEEDS TO PONY UP AND DEAL WITH THIS ISSUE. *TR

WHEN THE MULTIFUNCTION TURN SIGNAL SWITCH IS USED, THE VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY ACTIVATES THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LIGHT AND EXTERIOR TURN SIGNAL LAMPS. THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM, SYMPTOMS AND PART NUMBER INVOLVED FOR THE 2004 DODGE DURANGO SLT EXHIBITS SAME SYMPTOMS AND INVOLVES THE SAME PART THAT NHTSA ACTION NUMBER PE08059 REPORT DATE OF NOVEMBER 12, 2012 REFERENCES WHICH HAS RESULTING IN AN FACTORY EXTENDED RECALL FOR DODGE/ RAM 3500 WHICH USE THE EXACT SAME TURN SIGNAL MULTI SWITCH PART NUMBER INVOLVED IN THE ABOVE STATED RECALL. WITH COUNTLESS REPORTS OF THIS MULTISWITCH INCORRECTLY ILLUMINATING THE OPPOSITE INTENDED TURNING DIRECTION. THIS DEFECTIVE SWITCH CREATES A GREAT DANGER AND POTENTIAL DISASTER FOR MANY ON THE ROADWAY. *TR
