NHTSA Complaint #10473080 — 1999 DODGE DURANGO

I BOUGHT A 1999 DODGE DURANGO SLT 5.2 LTR ENGINE AS OF 3 TO 4 YRS AGO, AND IN SOME CASES LIKE MINE, IT ABSOLUTELY DOES MEAN IT CAN BE AN ABSOLUTELY UNRELIABLE & ABSOLUTE DANGEROUS VEHICLE!!!!! ..EVERYTHING THAT CAN HAPPEN, HAS HAPPENED TO THIS VEHICLE. ENGINE STALLS OUT, THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL EXPLODED ON THE HIGHWAY 4 MILES AFTER I HAD TO PUT IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE & ALMOST CAUSED ME TO WRECK,I HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL AXLES.. THE BACK (REAR) BREAKS HAVE NEVER WORKED SINCE I BOUGHT THE THING, THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS GOT SO HOT THAT THE BOLTS THAT CONNECT IT TO THE MANIFOLD PIPES BURNED OFF AND IS NOW, AND HAS BEEN SITTING FOR A MONTH SINCE I CAN'T KEEP IT TOGETHER. RIGHT NOW ALL THREE OF MY FRONT BRAKE LINES HAVE ROTTED INTO, AT THE CONNECTOR FROM THE MASTER CYLINDER THAT SENDS THE FLUID TO THE FRONT 2 WHEELS!!.. THAT'S JUST THE START OF ALL OF THE TERRIBLE DANGER THAT IT POSES TO ME AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A COMPLETE RECALL OF THE 1999 DODGE DURANGO SLT. THE DODGE MANUFACTURE SHOULD NOT GET BY WITH THIS. ITS ALMOST LIKE SELLING A DEVICE TO GET HURT IN. I PAID OVER 4,000.00 FOR THIS DURANGO, JUST TO SPEND THAT MUCH MORE MONEY AND THE CHANCE OF GETTING HURT OR WORSE WHILE HAVING IT REBUILT WHERE IT IS SUPPOSE TO BE SAFE. ....OTHER THINGS THAT HAVE STOPPED WORKING ALSO.. MOTOR OIL & TRANSMISSION LEAKS & SLIPS, WINDOWS (2 OF THEM) HAVE STOPPED WORKING UP & DOWN, GLOVE BOX LATCH BROKE, ASH TRAY BROKE OFF, REAR HATCH WILL NOT OPEN, HATCH WIPER SHORTED OUT, FRONT END TIRES SPRADDLE OUT LIKE THEY ARE GOING 2 DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS, THE PAINT FINISH HAS COMPLETELY FADED FROM THE HOOD & STARTING IN OTHER PLACES, STARTER SOLENOID CLICKS 10 TO 30 TIMES BEFORE IT WILL CRANK THE ENGINE...THERE IS MORE ALSO!.. THIS IS NOT A SAFE VEHICLE!! I HAVE NEVER HAD TROUBLE LIKE THIS WITH ANY OTHER AUTOMOBILE IN ALL OF MY 45 DRIVING YEARS. *TR
