Consumer Description

MY 2005 DODGE DURANGO SWITCHED FROM AWD TO 4X4 WHILE I WAS DRIVING. WHICH ALMOST MADE ME LOOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WITH FAMILY IN THE CAR, THIS WAS VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS, THANK GOD WE WEREN'T ON THE HIGHWAY. SVC 4WD LIGHT IS COMING ON, 4LOC AND 4LO FLASH AND TRANSFER CASE MOTOR CLICKS WHILE DRIVING OR JUST IDLING, SOMETIMES CLICKS WHEN I UNLOCK THE DOORS. RESEARCHED ISSUE ON THE NET AND FOUND SEVERAL FORUMS AND DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO A LOT OF PEOPLE, THIS NEEDS TO BECOME A RECALL FAST BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR WORSE. I CURRENTLY PULLED PLUG ON TRANSFER CASE MOTOR AND HAVE IT LOCKED IN AWD DRIVE, HOPE THIS HOLDS, BUT I PAID FOR 4 WHEEL DRIVE AS DID MANY OTHER PEOPLE. FROM WHAT I'VE READ THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS. DODGE NEEDS TO MAKE THIS RIGHT. THANK YOU.
