PERIODICALLY NO START WHICH LEAVES ME STRANDED VERY FAR FROM HOME WHEN TRAVELING FOR SP. MED. CARE. THIS SUMMER I WAS CROSSING AN OVERPASS TO ENTER THE ON-RAMP TO MAJOR INTERSTATE WHICH MAKES ME CROSS IN FRONT OF 4 LANES ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND MY CAR JUST DIED!! I WAS HEADED DIRECTLY FOR THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC WITH MY FAMILY ONBOARD. I WAS STRANDED IN 100+ DEGREE WEATHER BEING DISABLED WAS VERY DIFFICULT FOR ME NOW WITH 2 TEENS NEEDING DRIVING HRS FOR PERMIT I'M TERRIFIED TO ALLOW THEM TO DRIVE MY ONLY CAR. DODGE YOU NEED TO RECALL MY ENTIRE CAR AND REPLACE THIS WITH SOMETHING SAFE FOR MY FAMILY!

MY 2011 DODGE DURANGO HAS TROUBLE STARTING ON THE FIRST START. MECHANIC SAID THERE WAS A BULLETIN REGARDING THE ISSUE AND INFORMED ME THAT WE SHOULD TRY UPDATING THE SOFTWARE. THAT DID NOT WORK. DURANGO CONTINUES TO SPUTTER WHEN IT IS STARTED. IT EVENTUALLY DOES START EITHER ON ITS OWN OR AFTER ANOTHER TRY. WILL ATTEMPT ANOTHER SOLUTION AT NEXT REGULARLY SCHEDULED SERVICE.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES AND VERIFIED WHAT THE DEALER STATED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 193,000.

WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT WILL RANDOMLY BEGIN TO STALL WHEN DRIVING AND POWER OFF. ONCE YOU LET YOU SIT IT WILL START RIGHT BACK UP KIND ROUGH AND THEN DRIVE FINE. THEN COUPLE DAYS LATER IT WILL DO IT AGAIN. MY WIFE WAS MAKING A TURN WHEN IT STALLED AND ALMOST GOT T BONED. WE TOOK IT IN FOR THE FUEL PUMP RECALL BUT NO PARTS HAVE BEEN PUSHED OUT FOR THIS RECALL NOR HAVE BEEN MADE. THEY TOLD.US TO JUST KEEP DRIVING IT EVEN THOUGH ITS ASKING G FOR AN ACCIDENT TO HAPPEN. I ASKED FOR A REPLACEMENT CAR AND WAS DENIED AND WAS TOLD I CAN TAKE IT TO ANOTHER DEALER BUT THEY SAID THE SAME THING.

I HAVE REPORTED THIS BEFORE. MY VEHICLE STALLS OUT WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE MECHANIC A NUMBER OF TIMES BUT NOTHING FIXES THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND IT HAPPENS WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR. WHEN MY VEHICLE STALLS OUT WHILE DRIVING THE STEERING WHEEL ALSO LOCKS UP MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO DIRECT THE CAR. IT HAS HAPPENED A NUMBER OF TIMES WHILE DRIVING AND PULLING UP TO A STOP LIGHT. THIS STARTED ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO BUT I'M PUTTING THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED AS THE DATE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH IN A DRIVE-THRU, THE CONTACT NOTICED AN ABNORMAL BURNING ODOR AND THE VEHICLE SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE WHERE THE BATTERY WAS ATTEMPTED TO BE JUMPSTARTED, BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. MAC HAIK DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (11000 NORTH FWY, HOUSTON, TX 77037, (281) 301-5150) WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 159,000.

IN THE LAST MONTH INCLUDING TODAY 10/28/2019 THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF ABRUPTLY IN MOTION LOST POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES ALL INTERIOR ACCESSORIES LIGHTS AND GAUGES REMAINED ON NO ACCELERATION VEHICLE HAD TO BE STOPPED PUT IN PARK AND RE STARTED AFTERWARDS EVERYTHING SEEMED FINE NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NO WARNINGS NOTHING WE WILL BE TRADING IT IN AS WE FEEL IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE WITH OUR CHILDREN

IT GOES INTO 4LOW WITHOUT TURNING THE SWITCH ON. MAKES IT UNSAFE TO TURN SHARP AND FAST. WE REPLACED THE TRANSFER CASE SWITCH AND IT STILL DOES IT.

THE 4WD MESSAGE STARTING DISPLAYING ON MY DASHBOARD, THE AWD/LO NEUTRAL LIGHT WAS ON, I TRIED FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE MANUAL TO TURN IT OFF, BUT IT DID NOT WORK. WHEN I PULLED INTO MY DRIVEWAY I TRIED AGAIN TO GET THE MESSAGE TO SHUT OFF BY FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS THEN MY CAR BEGAN TO GO IN REVERSE, MY BREAKS WOULD NOT WORK, AND I HAD TO PUT THE EMERGENCY BREAK ON. EVEN WITH THE CAR SHUT OFF THE CAR WILL ROLL, I HAVE KEPT THE EMERGENCY BREAK ON AND WAITING FOR A MECHANIC TO LOOK AT IT. BASED ON MY RESEARCH THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE DURANGO'S AND DODGE HAS DONE NOTHING TO RECALL THESE FAULTY SWITCHES. THIS IS A MAJOR CONCERN AS I COULD HAVE BEEN OUT OF MY VEHICLE WHEN IT STARTED TO ROLL CAUSING DANGER FOR ANYONE AROUND.

THE ACTUATORS FOR THE AIR CONDITION GOING OUT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 DODGE DURANGO. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE, SHE HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE CONTACT HAD TO MAKE MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO START THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, IT WOULD HESITATE AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 17V435000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) AND 14V530000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SANDS CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (LOCATED AT 501 N WEST END BLVD, QUAKERTOWN, PA 18951, (215) 536-0946), BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 92,000.

THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH. BEFORE I WAS AT A PLACE TO GET OFF OF THE HIGHWAY (TWO MILES) THE VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER AND COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. SO THERE I SAT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY WAITING ON A TOW TRUCK. THE 220 AMP ALTERNATOR HAD THE FAULTY DIODE LIKE THE ONES THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED. THE DIODE FAILED AND CAUSED A DEAD SHORT. THE ALTERNATOR SHORT RUINED THE BATTERY AND THE PCM. THIS IS THE T36 RECALL TO A 'T' BUT DODGE SAYS MY VIN NUMBER SHOWS IT'S NOT RECALLED. THE PARTS AND LABOR WERE 1411.88. THAT'S NOT INCLUDING THE TOW SERVICE BILL OR THE RENTAL CAR THAT I HAD TO USE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS THAT CHRYSLER IS BEING ALLOWED TO RIP PEOPLE OFF KNOWING FULL WELL ITS THEIR WORTHLESS PARTS AT THE ROOT OF IT ALL. NO GOVERNMENT AGENCY SHOULD SIT BY...

VEHICLE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. TWO MILES LATER SHUT OFF WITH NO CONTROL OVER STEERING OR BRAKING. VEHICLE HAD A FAULTY ALTERNATOR WHICH WAS NOT COVERED BY THE T36 RECALL. ALTERNATOR OVERHEATED, RUINED THE BATTERY AND PCM. THE ALTERNATOR WAS SENDING REVERSE POLARITY WHEN TRYING TO JUMP START. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE MODEL YEARS. IT SHOULD BE COVERED IN RECALL AND ISN'T. THIS PART HAS RUINED MY WHOLE MONTHLY BUDGET AND IS CHRYSLER'S FAULT.

I HAVE A 2011 DODGE DURANGO CITADEL AWD AND IT WONT START I PUT MY KEY ON THE IGNITION AND TRY TO STARTED IT ONLY CRANKS AND NEVER STARTS

DEFECTIVE TIPM MODULE, FUEL PUMP WILL NOT ENGAGE, VEHICLE STALLS, OR WILL NOT START

WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY THERE WAS A WHINING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THEN DASHBOARD LIGHTS STARTED TURNING ON AN OFF RANDOMLY, THE TOUCHSCREEN WENT OUT. LESS THAN A MINUTE LATER THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHUT DOWN AND THE CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. TRAVELING 45 MPH ON A BUSY HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED. STEERED THE CAR TO THE SHOULDER. THERE WAS A BURNING SMELL AND SMOKE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. UNDER THE HOOD, IT LOOKED LIKE THE ALTERNATOR AND/OR BATTERY WERE SMOKING. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER. I FOUND THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON 2011 DODGE DURANGO FOR A FAULTY ALTERNATOR BUT MY DEALER TOLD ME THAT MY VIN IS NOT PART OF THE CURRENT RECALL.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2011 DODGE DURANGO ABOUT 45 MPH, MY BATTERY LITE CAME ON, WITHIN A MATTER OF APPROX 2 MINUTES, ALL OF THE DASH LIGHTS CAME ON AND WERE BLINKING AND ALARMING, MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS CAME ON, MY AC TURNED OFF, MY FASTEN SEAGHT BELT LIGHTS CAME ON AND ALARMED AND THEN SUDDENLY THE CAR LOST POWER AND POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND I QUICKLY TRIED TO HANOVER THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD ONTO INCOMING TRAFFIC. AT THE SAME TIME THE BRAKES WENT OUT THEN THE ENTIRE DASH/PANEL WENT OUT AS WELL AS MY HEADLIGHTS. THIS WAS 6 AM AND IT WAS DARK OUTSIDE. I GOT OVER THE INTERSECTION AND WAS ABLE TO TURN THE VEHICLE AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD AND GET OFF THE BUSY STREET. I THEN HAD TO WAIT TILL THE CAR STOPPED ON ITS OWN AS THE BRAKES DID...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE FILLED WITH SMOKE AND THE CONTACT SMELLED A BURNT ELECTRICAL ODOR. ALL OF THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE BRAKES FAILED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST THE VEHICLE INTO A NEARBY PARKING LOT. THE CONTACT EXITED THE VEHICLE, OPENED THE HOOD, AND NOTICED THAT THE ALTERNATOR WAS SURROUNDED BY FLAMES. UPON A SECOND EXAMINATION OF THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT REMOVED THE BATTERY COVER UNDERNEATH THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT TO ENSURE THAT THE FIRE WAS CONTAINED WITHIN THE ALTERNATOR AND HAD NOT SPREAD ELSEWHERE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FIRE EXTINGUISHED ITSELF (FIZZLED OUT). A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES SUSTAINED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO CROSSROADS CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE...

CAR BEGAN MISFIRING WHILE DRIVING, AND THEN WOULD NOT MOVE ONCE STOPPED AND THEN PUT BACK INTO GEAR. ENGINE LIGHT AND FCW INDICATORS CAME ON. INITIAL DIAGNOSIS WAS TO REPLACE TWO SENSORS. PROBLEM RETURNED AFTER REPLACEMENT. NEXT DIAGNOSIS WAS TO REPLACE ALL 16 SPARK PLUGS WITH BOOTS. STILL DID NOT SOLVE PROBLEM. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS CHECKED TO FIND ANY LEAKS, NONE WERE FOUND, BUT A NEW CODE ORIGINATED TO RE-FLASH COMPUTER. COMPUTER WAS PULLED AND FOUND TO BE TAKING ON WATER AND CORRODING TERMINALS. COMPUTER WAS CLEANED AND RE-SEALED TO FIX PROBLEM. BUT COMPUTER IS LIKELY TO TAKE ON MORE WATER AND CORRODE AGAIN. TOTAL REPAIR WAS OVER 1600.00 AND 20 DAYS IN SHOP. INCLUDED DOCUMENT DOES NOT INCLUDE INITIAL SENSORS AND PLUG REPLACEMENT. MECHANIC INDICATED THAT BASED ON OBSERVATION, WIRES CONNECTING TO COMPUTER HAD BEEN WORKED ON IN THE PAST, LIKELY TO ADDRESS SIMILAR PROBLEM

THE DASH BOARD WILL LIGHT UP AND THE WINDSHELD WIPERS WILL START TO GO WITH OUT DOING ANYTHING, THEN THE DASHBOARD FAILS AND POWERS DOWN AND THEN TRIES TO START BACK UP. IT CAUSED MY DURANGO TO LOSE POWER THEN POWER BACK UP. I DO HAVE A VIDEO THAT I WILL TRY TO INCLUDE PLEASE EXCUSE THE LANGUAGE IN IT.

VEHICLE IS STILL STALLING AFTER I HAVE ALREADY TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER TO HAVE RECALL HAS BEEN ADDRESSED. IT HAS BEEN TWO WEEKS SINCE THE DEALER FIXED THE RECALLS AND THIS IS THE SECOND DAY MY CAR HAS STALLED WHILE TAKING MY KIDS TO SCHOOL.

I HAD JUST STARTED DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN MY DASH STARTED DINGING AND MY TEMP WENT FROM COLD TO EXTREMELY HOT SO I PULLED OVER.THERE WAS PLENTY OF OIL AND WATER IN IT(I DOUBLE CHECKED).I STARTED IT UP AGAIN AND IT WENT COLD AGAIN,AS I STARTED DRIVING TO THE NEAREST EXIT OFF THE FREEWAY A FEW NOMENTS LATER TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT,IT ALL OF THE SUDDEN IT WOUNDNT LET ME GIVE IT GAS.IT SLOWED WAY DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY.I GOT IT OFF THE FREEWAY EVENTUALLY IT WENT BACK TO NORMAL THEN QUICKLY STARTED TO MAKE AN AWFUL SOUND.I STOPPED THE CAR AGAIN FOR THE FOURTH TIME AND OPENED THE HOOD AND HOT SMOKE VAME OUT.AFTER I LET IT COOL FOR 2 HOURS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IT WOUNDNT START.IT WANTED TO BUT NO FUEL WAS GETTING TO WHERE IT WAS SUPPOSE TOO.I HAD...

THERE WAS A BURNING SMELL & SMOKE COMING FROM MY CAR. AFTER I TURNED THE CAR OFF IT WENT COMPLETELY DEAD. I HAD THE ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY REPLACED BY A LOCAL MECHANIC FOR $640. THE NEXT DAY THE CAR DIED ON ME AGAIN IN THE TURNING LANE OF A BUSY STREET AT 4PM. IT WOULD NOT TAKE A BOOST. I HAD TO WAIT 2 HOURS TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED TO A DODGE DEALER. THE ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED AGAIN WITH A RECALL ALTERNATOR BUT IT WAS FOUND THE ALTERNATOR ALSO BURNED OUT THE PCM. I HAD TO PAY $700 TO HAVE THE PCM REPLACED. DODGE/CHRYSLER RECALL DEPT ASSURED ME I WOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR THE ALTERNATOR, BATTERY & PCM. IT HAS BEEN 2.5 MONTHS & NO REIMBURSEMENT. I HAVE SUBMITTED RECEIPTS 3 TIMES BY EMAIL & FAX. THIS IS THE 2ND RECALL ISSUE I HAVE HAD WITH THIS CAR. IN...

THE ALTERNATOR CAUSES MY TRUCK TO STALL AT TIMES, AND NOT START AT OTHER TIMES, I HAVE GONE THROUGH TWO BATTERIES AS A RESULT OF THIS. IT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT WHILE DRIVING, I COULD TELL THAT IT WAS SLUGGISH, AND THIS MORNING WOULDN'T START, THEN, NEXT THING YOU KNOW, IT STARTS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 15V879000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, INTERIOR LIGHTING) AND 17V572000 (SERVICE BRAKES, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE DEALER (SWOPE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM, 1012 N DIXIE AVE, ELIZABETHTOWN, KY 42701) WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THEY COMPLETED THE REPAIR FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V572000 (SERVICE BRAKES, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC); HOWEVER, THE PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V879000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, INTERIOR LIGHTING).

PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND THE BATTERY WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER (LARRY H. MILLER CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM ALBUQUERQUE, 8528 LOMAS BLVD NE, ALBUQUERQUE, NM 87110) WAS CONTACTED, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 94,000.

PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT CONNECTOR MELTING

ALL DASH LIGHTS FLASHED AND CENTER DISPLAYED SYSTEM ERROR THEN FCW ERROR THEN THE FCW LIGHT AND BATTERY LIGHT CAME ONE. AFTER ANOTHER FEW SECONDS THE RADIO POWERS ON AND OFF AND EVERYTHING GOES BACK TO NORMAL BUT THE THE BATTERY LIGHT REMAINS ON.

I'VE HAD EACH OF THE 2 COMPRESSORS IN THE VEHICLE REPLACED TWICE IN ADDITION BOTH OF THE ACTUATOR DOORS ON THE FRONT A/C HAVE ALSO BROKEN.

ALTERNATOR SMOKING AND WINDING NOISE AND BATTERY LIGHT AND ALL DASH LIGHTS ON LOSS OF ALL POWER AND DRAINED BATTERY WHILE DRIVING

MY CAR HAS STALLED ON ME TWICE ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE GOING 50 MPH. A LIGHT COMES ON SAYING FCW OFF AND MY WHEEL LOCKS AND MY CAR STOPS. I AM CURRENTLY 8 1/2 MONTHS PREGNANT AND AM NOW SCARED TO DRIVE MY OWN CAR. I HAPPENED TO ME WHEN I TURNED MY CAR ON THIS MORNING AND IT WOULDN'T LET ME MOVE IT UNTIL I TURN IT OFF AND BACK ON THEN IT'S FINE. THIS IS A LARGE CONCERN FOR ME BECAUSE I TRAVEL ON THE HIGHWAY TO WORK EVERYDAY.

ON 4/16/18 I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO PHILLIPS CJDR TO TAKE CARE OF A MANUFACTURER RECALL. THE RECALL IS FOR THE ALTERNATOR DIODE THERMAL FATIGUE (T36/NHTSA 17V-435.) WHEN I PICKED UP MY VEHICLE I WAS INFORMED THAT NO SAFETY INSPECTION WAS PERFORMED ON MY VEHICLE PRIOR TO IT BEING RELEASED BACK TO ME. I DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME AND IT DIDN'T SEEM AS IF IT WAS DRIVING RIGHT, BUT WE THOUGHT THAT MAYBE IT JUST NEEDED TO BE DRIVEN. THE NEXT TIME WE DROVE THE VEHICLE WAS 4/25/18, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT TO DROP MY CHILDREN OFF AT SCHOOL WHICH IS ONLY 7 MILES AWAY FROM MY HOME. WHEN I WENT TO START MY VEHICLE, IT WOULD NOT START. IT APPEARED TO BE THAT THE VEHICLE WAS GETTING NO POWER. AFTER 3 ATTEMPTS TO START THE VEHICLE IT STARTED WE WERE ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE BACK HOME....

THE LAST RECALL THAT WAS PERFORMED WAS THE P54 FUEL RELAY. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS SOMEWHERE IN THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE REASON I SUSPECT THIS IS BECAUSE THE VEHICLE HAS LOTS OF INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ALARM GOES OFF RANDOMLY FOR NO REASON SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, POWER LOCKS OPEN ON THEIR OWN, VEHICLE HAS DIFFICULTY STARTING AT TIMES AND THEN STARTS RIGHT UP MOST OF THE TIME, AND ALL WITHOUT A WARNING OR ERROR CODE ON THE DASHBOARD. THE MOST RECENT PROBLEM ALMOST KILLED ME AND MY FAMILY THIS MORNING AS THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT, AGAIN NO ERROR CODES OR WARNINGS. AN INVESTIGATION SHOULD BE OPENED BECAUSE THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS THE VEHICLE CAN TURN OFF AT ANY MOMENT AND WITHOUT WARNING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHT CONNECTORS BURNED AND WERE EMITTING SMOKE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 114, 000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

T36 ALTERNATOR. I GOT A RECALL IN THE MAIL FOR ME TO TAKE MY CAR TO A DEALERSHIP TO DIAGNOSE MY ALTERNATOR. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT MY ALTERNATOR WAS NOT LISTED AS AFFECTED FROM MY VIN. A WHILE AFTERWARDS, I WAS DRIVING WITH MY FRIEND IN THE CAR AND MY CAR SYSTEMS SLOWLY BEGAN TO SHUT DOWN AND MY VEHICLE BEGAN TO SMOKE FROM UNDER THE HOOD. AFTER HAVING MY VEHICLE TOWED BY TRIPLE A TO A LOCAL MECHANIC, THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT MY CAR'S ALTERNATOR HAD FAILED. I PAID $638.60 OUT OF POCKET FOR A REPLACEMENT ALTERNATOR. MY CAR EXPERIENCED THE EXACT REASONS FOR THE T36 RECALL. LUCKILY I WAS PULLING OVER FROM A CITY STREET AS MY VEHICLE LOST POWER AND CAUGHT ON FIRE. BUT HAD I BEEN GOING 60-70MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, I COULD'VE EASILY LOST CONTROL OF THE FAILING VEHICLE AND PERSONALLY DIED. I HAVE...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AND WAS UNABLE TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND THEN TO MEADOR DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (9501 SOUTH FWY, FORT WORTH, TX 76140). THE CONTACT WAS UNSURE OF WHAT PART NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AGAIN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V530000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 64,000.

WHILE DRIVING AFTER A 30 MINUTE COMMUTE AND ENTERING STOP AND GO DOWNTOWN MORNING COMMUTE TRAFFIC, (SLOW, DRIVING ON CITY STREETS BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC) MY DURANGO BEGAN TO SMOKE FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT INTO THE CABIN. NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON DURING THE ENTIRE EXPERIENCE. ALL TEMP GAUGES SHOWED NORMAL. THE CAR BECAME INCREASINGLY HARD TO DRIVE, FEELING TRANSMISSION SLIPPAGE. MORE SMOKE CAME FROM OUT OF ALL SIDES OF THE HOOD. UPON EXITING THE VEHICLE AND CHECKING THE HOOD, I COULD SEE FLUID COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT ENGINE COMPARTMENT - TOWARDS THE FRONT OF THE CAR. WHEN I LIFTED THE HOOD, THE ENGINE WAS FULLY INVOLVED IN FLAMES. I DROPPED THE HOOD CLOSED AND RAN TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STREET. WITHING 15 MINUTES THE ENTIRE FRONT END OF THE CAR WAS BURNED OUT, HOOD AND VARIOUS OTHER PARTS MELTED. CAR HAD TO BE...

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AT NIGHT. MY BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. JUST GOT A NEW BATTERY A FEW MONTHS AGO WHEN WIRING HARNESS WAS REPLACED, BECAUSE OF HEADLINER FIRE, DUE TO SUN VISOR RECALL. SO, I PULL INTO A PARKING LOT, ALL KINDS OF STRANGE LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING CAR COMPLETELY LOST ALL POWER, NO LIGHTS NO EMERGENCY LIGHTS, NOTHING! LOOKED UNDER HOOD AND THE ALTERNATOR WAS SMOKING. CALLED CORPORATE SAID IT WAS A RECALL BUT THEY DO NOT HAVE A FIX FOR IT. I HAVE TO COME OUT OF POCKET AND PAY FOR REPAIRS AND BE REIMBURSED BY DODGE. IT ALSO RUINED MY BATTERY. CAR IS STILL BEING SERVICED SO DON'T KNOW IF ANYTHING ELSE WAS DAMAGED AS OF YET. I WILL UPDATE.

I WAS DRIVING AROUND TOWN ABOUT 35 MILES PER HOUR AND SMOKE STARTED COMING FROM THE DRIVERS SIDE HEADLINER. HAD VEHICLE TOWED AT MY EXPENSE TO DEALERSHIP. THEY ENDED UP REPLACING WIRING HARNESS, THAT WAS DAMAGED DUE TO SUN VISOR RECALL. IT WAS IN SHOP FOR ABOUT 8 WEEKS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER TO A SHOULDER LANE AND WAS UNABLE TO BE RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO LOCAL DEALER (LAKELAND CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM, 2875 MALL HILL DRIVE, LAKELAND, FL, 33810) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALTERNATOR, BATTERY, AND POWER CONTROL MODULE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED BECAUSE THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 87,000.

2 SEPARATE RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE AFTER MY VEHICLE HAS ALREADY HAD 2 OTHER RECALLS REPAIRED. THE FIRST ONE IS T59 REGARDING A BRAKE BOOSTER WATER SHIELD. I RECEIVED A LETTER REGARDING THE RECALL A WEEK OR SO BEFORE THANKSGIVING AND IT JUST STATED 'IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL'. I START MAKING PHONE CALLS TO DEALERS AND EVEN SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE PROVIDED PHONE NUMBER AT HUNTINGTON BEACH DODGE TO HAVE THE VEHICLE INSPECTED. WHEN I SHOWED UP TO MY APPOINTMENT, THE SERVICE ADVISOR WAS RUDE AND ENDED UP TELLING ME THAT HE JUST PUT HIS LAST PARTS ON ANOTHER VEHICLE. I HAD AN APPOINTMENT. I SHOWED UP FOR NOTHING. SO I CALL AROUND SINCE NOVEMBER OF 2017 TO FIND A DEALER WITH THE PARTS. NOBODY HAD THEM AND NOT ONE DEALERSHIP SEEMED TO BE IN A HURRY TO REMEDY THE RECALL, TELLING ME 'IT'S NOT THAT BIG OF A DEAL'....

FOLLOW UP TO PREVIOUS COMPLAINT, RUNNING OUT OF CHARACTERS AND FILES NOT UPLOADING. THE VEHICLE HAS SLOWLY BUT INCREASINGLY BECOMING HARDER TO SLOW DOWN. DAY BY BY, THE VEHICLE REQUIRES MORE AND MORE BRAKE PRESSURE. NOT A SINGLE DEALERSHIP HAS PARTS FOR BOTH OUTSTANDING RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE (T59- BRAKE BOOSTER WATER SHIELD AND T-36 - ALTERNATOR AT EXCEPTIONAL RISK OF CATCHING FIRE.) MOPAR HAS NO IDEA WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE EITHER. ACCORDING TO THE NHTSA POLICY FOR AUTOMOBILE MANUFACTURERS WHO ISSUE RECALLS, THEY MUST DO SO IN A TIMELY MANNER. FOR T59, THE WATER SHIELD AFFECTING BRAKING ABILITY BEING ISSUES IN NOVEMBER OF 2017, COMING INTO JANUARY OF 2018 STILL WITH NO PARTS IS ABSURD EVEN MORE ABSURD THAN THAT IS THE T36 RECALL OF SEVERAL DIFFERENT MODELS, STATING THAT THE ALTERNATOR CAN POTENTIALLY CATCH FIRE WHICH COULD ALSO LEAD TO A VERY DEVASTATING SITUATION. THAT RECALL...
