Consumer Description

WHILE CRUISING A BACK ROAD NEAR HOME THE DURANGO SUDDENLY SHUT OFF LEAVING ME NO LOWER STEERING OR BRAKES. IT WAS TERRIFYING. I WAS LUCKY TO BE ONLY GOING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH AS I WAS JUST CRESTING A HILL. I WAS ABLE TO HAVE ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO GUIDE THE TRUCK ONTO A SIDE STREET. IT RESTARTED IMMEDIATELY UPON PUTTING IT IN PARK AGAIN. AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT TO MY PARENTS HOUSE WITHOUT INCIDENT AND THEN AGAIN BACK TO MY HOUSE LATER IN THE DAY. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHTS THAT LIT ON THE DASH AND NO OTHER INDICATION THAT THERE WAS A. MALFUNCTION. THE RPMS WERE SMOOTH, NO ROUGH ENGINE. TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THIS TRUCK NOW. *TR
