Consumer Description

2005 DURANGO 4.7 V8 HEMI MY VEHICLE RANDOMLY SHUTS DOWN ON ITS OWN, LOCKING THE STEERING COLUMN, WHEN SLOWING DOWN AND TURNING AT THE SAME TIME AS WHEN COASTING INTO A PARKING SPACE OR COMING TO A STOP. ALSO, ON SOME OF THESE OCCASIONS, ALL INTERIOR ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS SEEM TO GO OUT, INST PANEL, RADIO, FAN/BLOWER, ETC. BROUGHT IN MULTIPLE TIMES FOR INSPECTION, THEY SAY THEY FIND NOTHING. IN LAST 6 MONTHS, 4WD LIGHT BLINKS AS IF ITS CHANGING FROM AWD TO 4WD ON ITS OWN, SOMETIMES CAN HEAR IT ENGAGING UNDER CAR WHEN USING KEY FOB LOCKING OR UNLOCKING, AND WHEN TURNING INTO A PARKING SPOT IT FEELS LIKE IT CHANGED TO 4LO AS ITS ALMOST SKIPPING/HOPPING LIKE TRYING TO TAKE A TURN WITH 4WD AND RPMS GO WAY UP LIKE I'M IN A LOW GEAR. MANY, MANY OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS ON DODGE FORUMS WITH MANY PEOPLE JUST THROWING MONEY AT IT AND HAVING MULTIPLE THINGS REPLACED ETC, JUST TO FIND OUT ITS NOT FIXED. NEEDS TO BE RECALLED SOON. *TR
