ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
MY 2000 DODGE DURANGO LOST OIL PRESSURE. AFTER TAKING IT TO DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID IT WAS DUE TO SLUDGE IN OIL PAN GOING THROUGH INTAKE TUBE. SINCE MY HUSBAND PERFORMS MOST OF THE OIL CHANGES HIMSELF, I ONLY HAD A FEW RECEIPTS. MY WARRANTY COMPANY REFUSED TO PAY. FROM READING OTHER PEOPLES COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME PROBLEM, IT SEEMS CHRYSLER IS REFUSING TO PAY TOO. I JUST BOUGHT MY LAST DODGE.*AK

SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM:UPPER BALL JOINT, SUSPENSION:FRONT:CONTROL ARM:LOWER BALL JOINT
HAD READ ABOUT THE COMPLAINTS ON DODGE DURANGO 1998-2003 MODELS WITH PREMATURE WEAR ON THE BALL JOINTS. HAVE JUST HAD TO REPLACE BOTH JOINTS BECAUSE THE CAR WAS SHAKING TERRIBLY ON THE HIGHWAY, AND IT IS ONLY 3 AND 1/2 YEARS OLD. THOUGHT THAT THIS WAS A LITTLE TOO SOON, BUT HAVE NEVER OWNED AN SUV AND AM ONLY FAMILIAR WITH NORMAL CARS. DO NOT USE MY DURANGO OFF ROAD, AND ONLY TOW A BOAT TWICE A YEAR. *PH
