1999 DODGE DURANGO. TRUCK HAS BEEN STALLING AND DYING FOR OVER A YEAR NOW, WITH NO WARNING. THE VEHICLE WILL SHUT DOWN CAUSING YOU TO LOSE POWER BRAKE + STEERING. I'VE CHANGED ALL SENSORS. PLUGS, WIRES ETC, AND STILL STALLS. NO MECHANIC OR DEALER CAN RE-CREATE THE PROBLEM AND DODGE HAS NO RECORD OF THIS PROBLEM BEING AN ISSUE, I'M THE FIRST! HA! *TR

WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM V & H FORD INC, MARSHFIELD, WI. IN JUNE 2003. THE NEXT DAY AFTER I GOT IT I STARTED IT & IT STARTED TO SQUEAL. MY HUSBAND NOTICED TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAKING AS WELL. WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER, WE WERE TOLD THAT THE FAN CLUTCH & SERPENTINE BELT WERE SHOT, AS WELL AS A LITTLE LEAK IN THE TRANSMISSION. THEY PUT SOME KIND OF SEALER ON IT & CONTINUED TO LEAK. (ALSO DURING ALL OF THIS TIME, OUR RPM'S KEPT JUMPING.) AFTER THE 3RD TIME, THEY SAID THEY DID A FACTORY AUTHORIZED REPAIR & PUT WHAT WAS REFERRED TO AS A "COCK RING" IN IT TO SEAL IT. THIS SEAMS TO HAVE TAKEN CARE OF THIS. THEN WHEN THE TRUCK WAS PUT IN REVERSE IT KEPT CLUNKING, THE U-JOINTS WENT OUT NEXT, THEN THE LATCH BROKE ON OUR GLOVE BOX. MEANWHILE THE RPM'S...

MY 1999 DODGE DURANGO HAS HAD TO HAVE UPPER & LOWER BALL JOINTS REPLACED. MECHANIC INFORMED US THAT IF AN EVASIVE MOVE TO BRAKE & SWERVE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT, THE FRONT END OF THE DURANGO WOULD DROP TO THE GROUND. "BALL JOINTS HOLDING ON BY A THREAD" SAYS MY MECHANIC AND NOT BUILT STRONG ENOUGH FOR THE VEHICLE. *NLM

ON DECEMBER 27, 2002 I BROUGHT MY DODGE DURANGO TO JUST CRUISIN, INC TO HAVE MY ANNUAL STATE INSPECTION PERFORMED. I WAS NOTIFIED THAT I FAILED INSPECTION DUE TO OUT OF SPECIFICATION CONDITIONS ON MY FRONT SUSPENSION. THE VEHICLE HAD 62,810 MILES AT THE TIME OF THIS INSPECTION. THEY NOTIFIED ME THAT THEY BELIEVED THIS TO BE A PREMATURE WEARING OF THE PARTS. ON 1/17/03, THE ORDERED PARTS HAD BEEN RECEIVED, AND I HAD THEM REPLACED. JUST CRUISIN REMOVED AND REPLACED BOTH LOWER BALL JOINTS, THE LEFT UPPER BALL JOINT, AND BOTH INNER TIE ROD ENDS. I DID NOT NOTIFY CHRYSLER OF THIS PROBLEM YET. TODAY, I READ AN ARTICLE REGARDING 4 ACCIDENTS AND 81 COMPLAINTS OF PREMATURE WEAR ON THE FRONT SUSPENSION OF DODGE DURANGOS AND DECIDED TO FILE THIS COMPLAINT. I ALSO INTEND TO CONTACT CHRYSLER REGARDING RECOUPMENT OF MY EXPENSES. BECAUSE THE PARTS WERE REPLACED W/ FACTORY...
