BOUGHT 2004 3.7L DODGE DURANGO JAN 2004 .WITHIN YEAR, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK IT TO ARRIGO DODGE, WPBCH, FLORIDA. LEFT IT FOR A FEW DAYS, CALLED TO SAY IT WAS READY. REASON FOR FAILURE - BAD SENSOR. DROVE HOME, LIGHT BACK ON.TOOK IT TO ARRIGO. THEY KEPT IT FOR A WEEK. THEY EXPLAINED THAT THE HARNESS (ELECTRICAL) HAD A SHORT, SO THEY REPLACED IT.GOT IT BACK WITH THE LIGHT ON. THEY TOOK IT BACK INTO THE SHOP FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES THEN THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOOK IT BACK TO SAY THEY JUST TURNED OFF THE WARNING LIGHT. WITHIN A MONTH MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THERE IS A VIBRATION IN THE MOTOR. BY THE BEGINING OF 2006, THE VIBRATION GOT WORSE. EVENTUALLY THE VEHICLE BROKE DOWN. BY THIS TIME, MY 75000 MILE POWERTRANE WARRANTY HAD RUN OUT. MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS SLUDGE STUCK IN THE...

FINALLY GOT TRUCK BACK FROM BODY SHOP (9 WEEKS) AND SERVICE AFTER A TOTAL OF $13219 IN DAMAGE. ALL CAUSED BY THIS STALLING PROBLEM ON 2004 DODGE DURANGO LIMITED WITH A HEMI. STILL AFTER THE ACCIDENT THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO TELL ME WHY THIS HAPPENED. THE TYPICAL ANSWER IS "SORRY BUT WE CANNOT DUPLICATE THIS PROBLEM AND NO CODES ARE COMING UP".

2004 DODGE DURANGO LTD. 5.7 HEMI FAILS TO START, AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS AND STEPPING ON THE GAS, THE CAR STARTS, BUT IDLES VERY ROUGH. DEALER (STANLEY MOTORS, OLD SAYBROOK CT) COULD NOT FIX THE PROBLEM, AFTER HAVING THE CAR FOR SEVEN DAYS- THEY INSTALLED NEW VALVE SPRINGS. THE CAR IS STILL NOT STARTING EASILY, AND IS IDLING VERY ROUGH, CONDITION SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. I'M CONCERNED THERE WILL BE LONG TERM DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE, AND I WILL BE LEFT STRANDED WITH THE FAMILY.

DURANGO 2004 5.7 HEMI 4X4 SLT. THREE TIMES IN TWO MONTHS, I HAVE BEEN DRIVEN AT LOW SPEED EITHER IN A CAR PARK OR MAKING A TURN FROM A STOP AND THE ENGINE STALLS. I THEN PUT IT IN PARK OR NEUTRAL AND THEN IT STARTS FINE AND I'M ABLE TO DRIVE IT. THIS IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS AND WAS LUCKY I COULD PULL OVER AND RESTART IT. DODGE NEEDS TO LOOK INTO THIS BEFORE SOMEONE DIES.

THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL INCIDENTS WHERE MY DODGE DURANGO HAS STALLED WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE ACROSS TRAFFIC.

I AM LEASING A 2004 DODGE DURANGO EQUIPPED WITH A 5.7 LITER HEMI ENGINE THAT STALLS DURING REGULAR DRIVING APPLICATIONS. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE IN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES WITH NO ACTION TAKEN. I HAVE CALLED THE CHRYSLER HOTLINE TWICE WITH MY CONCERNS ABOUT THE OBVIOUS SAFETY ISSUES RELATED TO THESE FAILURES. MY 9 MONTH PREGNANT WIFE DRIVES THIS VEHICLE ON A DAILY BASIS AND SHE TRANSPORTS MY OTHER TWO CHILDREN TO SCHOOL. IT IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THIS VEHICLE IS GOING TO STALL IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED OR SERIOUSLY INJURED.

MY VEHICLE HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING ON 2 OCCASIONS. STEERING AND BRAKING ARE SERIOUSLY AFFECTED. *JB
