Consumer Description

V8-287 4.7L DURANGO STALLS WITHOUT WARNING. DOESN'T MATTER IF I AM ON THE FREEWAY OR IN CITY TRAFFIC. NOTHING SPECIFIC THAT I CAN RELATE TO THE CAUSE. IMMEDIATELY LOSE POWER STEERING. ELECTRICAL SEEMS TO CONTINUE WORKING. CAR WILL START BACK UP FINE AFTER 5 TO 15 MINUTES OF SITTING. HAPPENS IN HOT AND COLD WEATHER, DAY OR NIGHT. CAN GO FOR WEEKS WITHOUT STALLING AND THEN STALL SEVERAL TIMES IN A FEW DAYS. YELLOW CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, WHICH THE MANUAL TELLS ME IS NOT AN IMMEDIATE ISSUE. EXTREMELY UNSAFE AND I FEAR FOR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY. LOOKED AT DODGE DURANGO MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR FORUM ON INTERNET AND FOUND PAGES AND PAGES OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. (HTTP://TOWNHALL-TALK.EDMUNDS.COM AND HTTP://WWW.TOPIX.COM/FORUM/AUTOS/DODGE-DURANGO) THROUGH THESE WEBSITES IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE ANYONE CAN FIGURE IT OUT, INCLUDING THE DEALERSHIPS, ALTHOUGH THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE WIDESPREAD. *TR
