NHTSA Complaint #11186103 — 2013 DODGE DURANGO

DROVE VEHICLE 10 MILES TO LOCATION. PARKED VEHICLE, TURNED IT OFF. RETURNED TO VEHICLE 2 HOURS LATER. ENTERED VEHICLE, PUT FOOT ON THE BRAKE, PUSHED THE START BUTTON. VEHICLE STARTED AS USUAL AND THEN IMMEDIATELY STALLED. I TRIED SEVERAL TIMES, WITH THE SAME RESULTS. AFTER WAITING A FEW MINUTES, I TRIED AGAIN, AND THE VEHICLE STARTED NORMALLY, AND CONTINUED TO RUN. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME APPROXIMATELY 6 TIMES OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS. THE KEY FOB HAS A FRESH BATTERY, SO THAT IS NOT THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN AND TURNED OFF. NEVER FROM A COLD START. DRIVING DISTANCE DOESN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE EITHER. FIRST TIME IT WAS LESS THAN 1/4 MILE FROM HOME, NEXT COUPLE OF TIMES IT WAS 10 MILES FROM HOME. NO REAL PATTERN, OTHER THAN ITS A SECOND START OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN STARTING, ALL THE VEHICLES NORMAL START-UP INFORMATION IS DISPLAYED, THE RADIO WORKS, HEADLIGHTS ARE ON, ETC. THE DISPLAY DOES NOT SHOW THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE. ALL SEEMS NORMAL EXCEPT FOR THE START AND IMMEDIATE SHUTDOWN.
