Consumer Description

MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO 5.7 HEMI HAS HAD A VAST AMOUNT OF STALLING. I WAS GOING TO PICK MY SON UP AND THE THROTTLE LIGHT AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE THROTTLE LIGHT WAS BLINKING. I WOULD JUST BE DRIVING AND IT WOULD DIE. THIS IS A SERIOUS MATTER AND IF DODGE IS NOT MADE ACCOUNTABLE SOMEONE COULD BE HURT. I HAD MY DURANGO TOWED TO A DODGE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE EGR VALVE. SO I HAD THAT REPLACED ALONG WITH NEW SPARK PLUGS AND WIRES. IT WAS FINE FOR A WEEK THEN IT DID THE EXACT SAME THING ON A VERY BUSY ROAD. IT WOULD START THEN DIE. SO I HAD IT TOWED A SECOND TIME TO THE DODGE DEALER. THIS TIME I WAS TOLD IT HAD PULLED 12 CODES BUT THEY WERE NOT ACTIVE BUT JUST STORED CODES. THE DEALER COULD NOT DIAGNOSE MY DURANGO. I WAS TOLD THEY ALSO CHECKED THE WIRING AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. SO I PAID FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC AND WAS TOLD IT NEVER ACTED UP ON THE MECHANIC. SO AGAIN A WEEK LATER IT DID THE SAME THING AND SO WE REPLACED THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL. IT RAN OK FOR A WEEK AND NOW IT IS DOING THE EXACT SAME THING. IT STALLED ON THE INTERSTATE AND MY HUSBAND WAS NEARLY HIT. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS WITH DODGE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. THE DEALER CANNOT FIND WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY TRUCK .PLEASE SOMEONE HELP FIGURE THIS OUT I SAW ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS ON LINE FOR THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM.AND ALSO WITH MINE THIS HAPPENED ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. *TR
