Consumer Description

WHE I DRIVE THE DURANGO IT STARTS OUT FINE. WHEN I AM DRIVING AT A HIGHWAY SPEED THE OIL PRESSURE IS FINE, BUT WHEN I SLOW DOWN OR COME TO A COMPLETE STOP THE OIL PRESSUE IS AT THE LINE RIGHT ABOVE THE 0. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SLUDGE THAT THE ENGINE MAKES. I HAVE 4 KIDS AND I DON'T NEED ANYTHING TO HAPPEN TO THIS VEHICLE TO BREAK DOWN. I ALSO HEAR A TICKING SOUND WHEN I FIRST START THE ENGINE AND THEN IT GOES AWAY. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO POUR INTO THIS VEHICLE! IF THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS AND THE MECHANICS KNOW ABOUT IT WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL! VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR ANYONE TO BE IN. *TT
