2012 DODGE DURANGO Electrical System Problems

ALTERNATOR FAILED IN MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO. I HAVE ONLY HAD MY VEHICLE FOR 4 YEARS 3 MONTHS, 48,904 MILES AND DO MOSTLY CITY DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN I BEGAN TO SMELL A BURNT SCENT. SOON AFTER I NOTICED THE AIR CONDITIONER POWER MINIMIZED RAPIDLY AND THE BURNT SCENT CONTINUED. LUCKILY AT THAT POINT I WAS GETTING HOME AND THEREFORE I IMMEDIATELY PARKED MY VEHICLE. WAS INSPECTED BY A MECHANIC WHO CONFIRMED THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE ALTERNATOR.

DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY IN NJ ON 7/21/16 , ALL THE CAR WARNING LIGHTS WENT ON RANDOMLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY, WINDSHIELD WIPERS WENT ON ON THEIR OWN, RADIO SHUT OFF, ALL POWER WAS LOST AND CAR SHUT DOWN ALMOST IMMEDIATELY WITH LIMITED OR NO BRAKING OR STEERING POWER AND THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN ON ANY LONGER. I TRIED TO MAKE IT SAFELY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD (LEFT SHOULDER WAS THE CLOSEST) WITH BIG TRUCKS AND FAST MOVING CARS GOING BY. HAD IT TOWED TO AN AUTO BODY SHOP WHICH TOOK 2 DAYS TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM WHICH THEY DEEMED A FAILURE OF THE MAIN BOARD WHICH CAUSED THE ALTERNATOR TO FAIL WHICH CAUSED THE BATTERY TO SEIZE AND FAIL AS WELL. THE COSTS OF REPAIR I HAD TO PAY TO FIX THE ISSUE ON MY 4 YEAR OLD CAR WITH 92K MILES ON IT WAS APPROX $1,500....

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

DASH LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING CAR SHUT OFF, CHARGED BATTERY, ALTERNATOR STARTED SMOKING, REPLACED ALTERNATOR, REPLACED BATTERY, BATTERY IS STILL DRAINING.

IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING A SCHEDULED OIL CHANGE AT THE DEALERSHIP, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I NOTICED A BURNING SMELL AS I WAS GOING DOWN THE SLIGHT DECLINE FROM THE DEALER LOT ONTO THE STREET. I RETURNED TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHERE THEY INSPECTED THE CAR AND DIAGNOSED THE ISSUE AS A FAILED ALTERNATOR. BECAUSE OF THE COSTLY REPAIR, I OPTED TO GET A SECOND OPINION. THIS MECHANIC ALSO DIAGNOSED THE ISSUE AS A FAULTY ALTERNATOR. HE CHECKED THE VIN FOR A RECALL, AND DID NOT SEE MY VIN LISTED, THOUGH THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE ALTERNATOR ON DODGE DURANGOS MADE IN 2011-2014, MATCHING THE SPECS OF MY AUTO. BECAUSE THE CAR WAS A 2012, I ASKED IF THIS IS COMMON FOR SUCH A "YOUNG" CAR. HE DID NOT THINK IT WAS A TYPICAL ISSUE. WHAT HE ALSO THOUGHT WAS ODD WAS THAT TRACKING DOWN A REPLACEMENT ALTERNATOR...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V879000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, INTERIOR LIGHTING). THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. APPROXIMATELY SIX WEEKS LATER, WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, SMOKE APPEARED FROM THE TOP LEFT CORNER OF THE WINDSHIELD AND SUN ROOF. THE CONTACT PARKED THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED FLAMES IN THE SAME LOCATION. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS LEFT AT THE SCENE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,000.

THE ALTERNATOR IN MY DURANGO FAILED SUDDENLY. WE LUCKILY HAD JUST ARRIVED AT MY DAUGHTER'S DAY CAR WHEN THE CAR SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN AND WE NOTICED SMOKE. WHEN WE GOT OUT TO CHECK UNDER THE HOOD, THE ALTERNATOR WAS SMOKING! I HAD TO HAVE THE DURANGO TOWED TO MY DEALERSHIP AS THERE WAS NO POWER TO THE DURANGO AT ALL. THE DEALERSHIP ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE, AND COULD NOT START THE CAR USING A JUMPER BOX, OR BY JUMPING IT WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE ALTERNATOR HAD COMPLETELY DRAINED THE BATTERY. WE WERE TOLD A FEW DAYS LATER THAT THEY WERE ATTEMPTING TO LOCATE AN ALTERNATOR AS IT WAS BACK ORDERED, AND IT COULD BE UP TO 6 WEEKS OR MORE BEFORE THEY COULD GET ONE. WHEN WE INQUIRED AS TO WHY, WE WERE TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE ALTERNATOR FOR MANY CHRYSLER AND DODGE VEHICLES...

ALTERNATOR FAILURE AS COMMON WITH THE P60 RECALL. THE ALTERNATOR IN MY DURANGO FAILED SUDDENLY AND WE LOST ALL POWER. WE WERE LUCKY IN THAT WE WERE ON A RESIDENTIAL ROAD AT LOW SPEED AND ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE SAFELY. THE ALTERNATOR WAS SMOKING. MY DURANGO IS NOT COVERED BY THIS RECALL SO I FELT IT IMPORTANT TO REPORT THIS IS STILL HAPPENING WITH OTHER ALTERNATORS WITH THE V6. I DID CALL INTO CHRYSLER AND THEY CONFIRMED MY VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED BY P60.

I PURCHASED THIS USED VEHICLE AROUND THE TURN OF THE YEAR. IT CAME ON THE FERRY JANUARY 15, 2016. BY MONDAY, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAD TURNED ON. C&F RAN A DIAGNOSTIC ON JANUARY 20, AND FOUND CODE PO456. WITHIN SEVERAL DAYS, I NOTICED WATER INTRUSION. THE FLOORBOARDS WERE WET AND BECOMING DRENCHED IN THE FRONT ' AND IN THE MIDDLE SEATS. EVERY TIME I CAME TO A STOP OR TURNED, I COULD HEAR WATER ROLLING THROUGH THE CAR. I TOOK IT TO RC FEBRUARY 15. WHEN THE WATER PROBLEM WAS LOOKED AT, I WAS INFORMED IT IS NOT A NORMAL LEAK, BUT WHAT IS CALLED A "PHANTOM" LEAK. TO FIX THIS, THEY WOULD HAVE TO GUT THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN THEY WENT TO RESTART, IT WOULD NOT START WITH THE PUSH BUTTON. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MIDTOWN AUTO WHERE THEY FOUND THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT UNDER THE...

MY 180 AMP ALTERNATOR STOPPED WORKING WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON A CITY STREET. THE CURRENT P60 RECALL ONLY COVERS THE 160 AMP ALTERNATOR, BUT IT SHOULD COVER BOTH PIECES OF EQUIPMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT IS SITTING, WAITING TO GET A NEW 180 AMP ALTERNATOR INSTALLED. I WAS QUOTED $900 PARTS AND LABOR FOR THE REPAIR.

MY ISSUES BEGAN LAST NOVEMBER WITH THE LIFT GATE. WHILE DRIVING THROUGH MY NEIGHBORHOOD, THE LIFT GATE DECIDED TO OPEN. ALARMED, I STOPPED QUICKLY AND CLOSED THE LIFT GATE. AFTER I ARRIVED HOME IT WOULD NOT OPEN AGAIN. THIS CONTINUED FOR A WEEK. THE LATCH, INTERIOR BUTTON, AND KEY FOB WOULD NOT OPEN IT. I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT AND IT MAGICALLY STARTED WORKING FINE JUST 2 DAYS PRIOR TO THE APPOINMENT. THE SECOND ISSUE WE EXPERIENCED CAME SHORTLY AFTER. THE CAR WOULD SHUT DOWN AFTER USING THE REMOTE START AFTER A FEW SECONDS. I FOUND THAT THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED AND RE-TIGHTENED THE GAS CAP. THE LIGHT DID NOT SHUT OFF, SO I DECIDED TO TAKE IT VERY EASY AND MONITOR THE VEHICLE FOR THE REST OF THE DAY. THE LIGHT EVENTUALLY TURNED OFF. A WEEK LATER AND IT IS BACK ON AGAIN. NOT SURE WHAT IS GOING ON...

IWHEN DRIVING VEHICLE IN WET OR LONG PERIODS OF DAMP WEATHER DASH LIGHTS WILL GO OUT AND WHEN MOVING TURN SIGNAL ON DASH LIGHTS COME ON AND HEAD LIGHTS GO OUT .I WILL NOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AT NIGHT. DEALER CAN'T DUPLICATE THIS THIS PROBLEM

WHILE DRIVING BATTERY RED LIGHT ON DASHBOARD LIGHT UP MAKE IT HOME JUST 1 MILE AWAY. NEXT DAY WHEN START THE CAR TO SEE IF ANYTHING CHANGE OR FIND ANYTHING WRONG THAT I CAN SEE. THE CAR START NO BATTERY LIGHT, NO LONGER ON, AFTER LIKE A MINUTE I START BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND I HEARD A NOISE (LIKE A BUZZING) NOISE I DRIVE BACK IN MY DRIVEWAY, WHILE ENGINE RUNNING I OPEN THE HOOD TO LOOK FROM WHERE THE NOISE WAS COMING AND I SEE LOT OF SMOKE WAS COMING FROM ALTERNATOR I WENT SHOT OFF ENGINE AND IT GOT THE THROTTLE BODY RED LIGHT ON THE DASH BOARD ON AND THE SMOKE INTENSIFIED I SHOT OFF THE ENGINE AND DISCONNECT THE BATTERY TO PREVENT THE CAR TO GOT ON FIRE .THE SMOKE STILL COMING OUT OF THE ALTERNATOR FOR APPROXIMATELY 15 TO 20 MINUTES AFTER I...

MY DURANGO HAS HAD MANY PROBLEMS WHEN TRYING TO START IT SINCE I INITIALLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I HAVE TAKEN IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT 7 TIMES TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY IT WON'T START ON MANY OCCASIONS. I WILL ALSO START AND THEN SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY. IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND EVEN AFTER GETTING THE R09 FUEL PUMP RELAY FIX I STILL HAVE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. AFTER DOING COUNTLESS HOURS OF RESEARCH IT APPEARS IT IS THE ACTUAL TIPM THAT HAS GONE BAD AND WILL COST ME AROUND 1500$ IT IS A DISGRACE THAT DODGE WILL NOT JUST RECALL THE BAD TIPM. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ONLINE WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AS ME AND I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT IF YOU ALL WILL LOOK INTO THIS MORE CONSIDERING HOW DANGEROUS IT IS ESPECIALLY IF DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AND YOUR VEHICLE JUST SHUTS DOWN...

I WAS DRIVING AND NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM WHAT APPEARED TO BE THE DRIVERS SIDE VISOR. I RECORDED THE SMOKE AND CALLED MY HUSBAND (WHO THOUGHT I WAS NUTS). WHEN I WOULD STOP, THE SMOKE SEEMED TO STOP AS WELL. MY TODDLER AND I WERE ABLE TO PARK AND EVACUATE THE VEHICLE BEFORE THE FIRE STARTED.

I COULD HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR AGAIN AND PUT MYSELF AND SON IN DANGER IF IT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY LIKE THE FIRST TIME. NOW THEY ARE FINALLY DOING IT BUT DIDN'T TELL ME IT WASN'T COMPLETE UNTIL I BROUGHT MY CAR IN FOR ANOTHER ISSUE. DURING THAT TIME I STARTED GETTING A BAD KEY MESSAGE AND THE RED SECURITY SYSTEM DOT ON MY INDICATOR PANEL WOULDN'T SHUT OFF. AT TIMES LEAVING ME STRANDED AND WOULDN'T START.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE CAR'S ENGINE SHUT DOWN. I PLACED THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND RESTARTED THE ENGINE WITH NO DIFFICULTY. DAYS LATER THE CAR WAS PARKED AND WOULD NOT START. THE ENGINE TURNED NORMALLY BUT IT SEEMS LIKE THE FUEL IS NOT REACHING THE ENGINE. IT ALMOST SEEMS LIKE A FLOODED ENGINE. I RESEARCHED IT ONLINE AND IT SEEMS TO BE AN KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS CAR. THE TIPM (TOTALLY INTERGRATED POWER MODULE) SEEMS TO BE THE ISSUE.

WHEN THE GAS PEDAL WAS PUSHED DOWN TO ACCELERATE THERE WAS A HIGH PITCHED WHIZZING SOUND THAT WAS ASSOCIATED WITH EVERY REV OF THE ENGINE. AFTER DRIVING APPROX. 8 MINUTES THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH PANEL. TOOK THE CAR TO A REPAIR SHOP AND THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED. AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY, IT WAS DEEMED THE ALTERNATOR WAS BAD AND IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT. THE ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED THE NEXT DAY AND THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED. DODGE CURRENTLY HAS A RECALL (P60) ON DURANGOS FROM THE SAME YEARS AS OURS. HOWEVER, DODGE SAYS MY ALTERNATOR DOES NOT FIT THE RECALL BECAUSE IT IS 180 AMP AND NOT 160 AMP. WHEN THE ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED, THERE WAS A BACKORDER ON THE ALTERNATOR THAT FITS MY DURANGO. I FOUND THIS IRONIC AND QUESTIONED WHY THERE WOULD BE A SHORTAGE OF ALTERNATORS IF THIS TYPE WASN'T EXPERIENCING FAILURES. MY ISSUE FITS...
