NHTSA Complaint #10706397 — 2011 DODGE DURANGO

WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR ROAD THE CAR STARTED GIVING ME SEAT BELT LIGHT ALARM, WIPERS GOING ON AND OFF, REAR PARKING SYSTEM WARNING COMING ON AND THEN THE CAR JUST SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. WE WERE STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF A FOUR LANE STREET WHICH WAS VERY UNSAFE. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER AND WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH I FOUND OUT THAT THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR THE SAME YEAR DURANGO AS MINE BUT IS NOT COVERED BECAUSE THE RECALL WAS FOR 160 AMP ALTERNATOR AND MINE IS 180 AMP. *TR
