2012 DODGE DURANGO Electrical System Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE BATTERY WOULD HAVE TO CONSTANTLY BE RECHARGED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE REPLICATED. THE FAILURE PERSISTED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO A DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V634000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000. UPDATED 02/09/15*LJ

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V634000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED, BUT THE POWER CONTINUED TO DRAIN AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO LOSE POWER WITHOUT WARNING. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE TIPM WAS NOT REGULATING PROPERLY AND CAUSED THE FUEL PUMP TO REMAIN ACTIVATED, WHICH DRAINED THE POWER. THE MANUFACTURER AND THE LOCAL DEALER WERE TO BE CONTACTED IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THE REMEDY FOR THE VEHICLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FIVE MONTHS FOR PARTS FOR DODGE MANUFACUTRER P14 RECALL. I HAD TO WAIT SIX MONTHS FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF ONE SHOCK ASORBER. DODGE RESPONCE WAS A "NEW PARTS HOLD" I CALLED MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER (NYLE MAXWELL TAYLOR, TX) REGARDING THE P14 RECALL. I WAS TOLD I WAS #26 IN LINE TO RECIEVE THE PROPER REPAIR. SO I AM LEFT TO BELIEVE THAT IT TAKES DODGE SIX MONTHS TO A YEAR TO FINALLY ADDRESS SAFETY RECALLS. IN THE MEANTIME I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE A POTENTIAL ACCIDENT/SAFETY HAZARD. MOST RECENT RECALL IS P36. I GUESS MY VEHICLE HAS TO CATCH FIRE BEFORE THIS RECALL IS ADDRESSED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 14V634000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) AND STATED THAT THE PART NEEDED WAS UNAVAILABLE TO PERFORM THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT EXPERIENCED THE FAILURE BUT THE SPECIFICS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 102,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V634000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXPERIENCING THE SAME FAILURES LISTED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V104000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH IN INCLEMENT WEATHER, THE CONTACT WENT TO DEPRESS BRAKE PEDAL AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER STEERING. THE ENGINE SEIZED REPEATEDLY THROUGHOUT THE DAY. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT A FOUL ODOR WAS COMING FROM THE HEAT/AIR VENTS. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 61,000.

DODGE HAS ISSUED A RECALL ON THE TIPM SYSTEM FOR THE 2011 DODGE DURANGO'S. ALTHOUGH I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUES THEY ARE STATING THAT MY CAR IS NOT UNDER THE RECALL AS IT IS ONLY FOR 2011 DURANGO'S. MY SUV IS HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM BUT DODGE IS REFUSING TO FIX IT AND WILL NOT PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE. *TR

VEHICLE WOULD NOT START, TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT IS THE TIPM BUT THAT THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER AND THEY CAN'T SAY HOW LONG IT WILL BE. *TR

SAME AS NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V530000, MY VEHICLE HAD THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS: WILL NOT START, START THEN STALLS, FUEL PUMP CONTINUED TO RUN. LUCKILY I WAS AT HOME WHEN IT HAPPENED. FINALLY GOT IT TO DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS THE FUEL PUMP RELAY PROBLEM. MY VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL SINCE IT IS 2012 BUT HAS THE SAME RELAY AND TIPM AS 2011. I ELECTED TO HAVE THE REPAIR DONE AT THE COST OF $530 INSTEAD OF THE TIPM REPLACEMENT AT $1400. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS FURTHER AS THERE IS ALREADY A RECALL ON THIS SAME PROBLEM IN THE 2011 DURANGO. *TR

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING ISSUES WITH VEHICLE NOT STARTING WITH BOTH THE INSIDE PUSH BUTTON, AND THE REMOTE START. IT HAS LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING TWICE, HOWEVER I WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. YESTERDAY HOWEVER, IT LOST POWER, I STILL HAD CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WHILE IT WAS SHUTTING DOWN, THEN IT "POWERED" BACK UP, DURING WHICH THERE WAS ABOUT THREE SECONDS IN WHICH I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE. I SIMPLY LOST ALL CONTROL.I BELIEVE THAT THE VEHICLE MAY BE EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS RELATED TO THE FUEL PUMP RELAY, POSSIBLY THE TPIM, ALTERNATOR, OR A COMBINATION OF ALL THREE. I AM TAKING VEHICLE IN MONDAY TO HAVE TWO RECALLS DONE FOR BRAKE BOOSTER, AND VANITY LIGHT WIRING ISSUE. AT THAT TIME THEY ARE GOING TO DO A DIAGNOSTIC ON IT TO SEE WHAT THE ISSUE IS. *TR

FAILURE OF TIPM (TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE) ON 2012 DODGE DURANGO. STARTED WITH HARD STARTING (LONG TIME TO START ENGINE), THEN LED TO VEHICLE STARTING AND IMMEDIATELY SHUTTING OFF. FINALLY, WHILE DRIVING, VEHICLE STALLED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, VEHICLE STALLED ON ME WHILE I WAS PULLING ONTO A 6 LANE ROADWAY WITH OTHER VEHICLES APPROACHING. WHEN VEHICLE STALLS, YOU LOOSE CONTROL OF ALL POWER FUNCTIONS, INCLUDING (BUT NOT LIMITED TO) POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES, LIGHTS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, AND (FROM WHAT I'VE HEARD) AIRBAGS. CHRYSLER HAS DONE A RECALL ON THE 2011 MODEL YEAR VEHICLES, BUT NEEDS TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE WITH THE 2012 MODELS AS WELL. WHEN I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY WEREN'T SURPRISED WHEN THEY FOUND THAT IT WAS THE TIPM, EXPLAINING TO ME THAT THEY WERE GETTING A LOT OF COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE. OF COURSE, THIS...

ON OCT 3, 2014, THIS ISSUE FIRST OCCURRED WITH MY DODGE DURANGO. IT TOOK SEVERAL ATTEMPTS OF THE VEHICLE "TURNING OVER" FOR IT TO ACTUALLY START. THEN ON OCT 10, MY VEHICLE SPONTANEOUSLY STOPPED IN TRAFFIC. THEN IT TOOK SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO GET IT RESTARTED. I HAD MY CODES AND BATTERY TESTED, NO ISSUES WERE DETECTED. THIS PROBLEM STARTING THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN GOING ON SEVERAL TIMES A DAY SINCE OCT 3. ATTEMPTS TO CONTACT CHRYSLER HAVE BEEN A DEAD END. I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN GETTING THE RUNAROUND. A RECALL SHOULD HAVE BEEN ISSUED LONG BEFORE NOW AS I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL OTHER DODGE DURANGO OWNERS WHO HAVE OR ARE CURRENTLY HAVING THESE ISSUES. *TR

RIGHT TURNING SIGNAL TURNS ON BY ITSELF AND IS HARD TO TURN OFF, COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT BY HAVING A CAR PULLING OUT IN FRONT OF US BELIEVING WE ARE TURNING. CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT MAINTAIN SPEED. *TR

CAR BATTERY IS DEAD, BATTERY IS FINE, POSSIBLE FAULTY TIPM.L *TR

STARTER WON'T ENGAGE AFTER 4 OR 5 ATTEMPTS TO TURN THE KEY, ENGINE STARTED. TIPM HAD TO BE REPLACED. TOOK CAR TO BE SERVICED AT DODGE DEALER 2 TWO TIMES REPORTING THAT CAR WILL ONLY START AFTER 4 OR 5 ATTEMPTS. AFTER 36K MILES WARRANTY EXPIRED TOOK CAR TO MECHANIC AND HE REPLACED TIPM, CAR IS RUNNING FINE NOW. *TR

INITIALLY IN EARLY JULY, 2014 MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO DEVELOPED A COMPUTER FAILURE CAUSING THE BATTERY TO EVENTUALLY DRAIN, LOSS OF ENGINE POWER AND ABILITY TO MAINTAIN OR ACCELERATE. REPAIR WAS MADE AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE LOCAL DODGE DEALER, MANFREDI DODGE, STATEN ISLAND N.Y , AND SUBSEQUENTLY THE BATTERY REPAIRED AND THE COMPUTER REPLACED. SHORTLY AFTER THE REPAIR WAS COMPLETED THE PASSENGER AIRBAG FAILURE LIGHT WOULD INTERMITTENTLY ILLUMINATE AND THE VEHICLE OCCASIONALLY WOULD NOT START. ANOTHER TRIP TO THE DEALER AND THE PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG SENSOR WAS REPORTED FAULTY AND THE VEHICLE TIPM SENSOR NEEDED REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR. CONFERRAL WITH THE DEALER SUGGESTED THAT THE TIPM SENSOR BE REPLACED RATHER THAN REPAIRED TO ASSURE LONGEVITY OF THE REPAIR AND OVERALL SATISFACTION. VEHICLE IS A LEMON! *TR

MY LETTER TO DARCAR REGARDING MY DODGE DURANGO:I MUST SAY EVEN WITH ALL THE ISSUES BEING REPORTED ,YOUR SHOP AND TECHNICIANS ARE COMPLETELY OBLIVIOUS TO CARS. I INFORMED THEM WHEN MY CAR WAS TOWED BECAUSE COMPLETE ELECTRICAL POWER WAS GONE THAT IT WAS DUE TO THE TIPM ISSUE. I KEEP BEING FORCE FED THAT IT'S JUST THE BATTERY NO CRANK NO START. EVEN WHEN RECOMMENDATION PRESENT IT'S A POSSIBLE TIPM ISSUE AND I HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC RAN I GET SOME BS ABOUT ANOTHER DIAGNOSTIC CHARGE BECAUSE TIPM IS SEPARATE. SO I TOLD THEM TO FIX THE BATTERY ISSUE JUST TO TRY AND PROVE A POINT A $600 POINT THAT IS. NOT ONLY WHEN I GET THE CAR DOES IT TAKE [XXX] NEAR 30 MINUTE TO TRY AND GET IT TO THE FRONT I SEE YOUR TECHNICIANS JUMPING MY CAR. I THOUGH IT WAS FIXED? I PAID FOR IT TO BE...

MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO WOULD NOT START, THE ENGINE WOULD TURN OVER BUT NOT START. AFTER 5 ATTEMPTS IT STARTED AND I DROVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND AFTER TEST I WAS TOLD THAT THE TIPM HAD AN OPEN CIRCUIT. *TR

VEHICLE STARTS THEN STALLS OUT, OR JUST CRANKS AND CRANKS, AND WON'T START. HAPPENED A FEW TIMES AT STOP LIGHTS AFTER SHORT DRIVE. WAS ABLE TO FINALLY GET STARTED TO DRIVE TO DEALER, WAS TOLD I COULD EITHER REPLACE THE TIPM FOR OVER $1000, OR DO A FUEL RELAY BYPASS TO THE EXISTING TIPM FOR A LITTLE OVER $550. SAME EXACT PROBLEM ALL THE RECALLED DURANGO/GRAND CHEROKEES HAVE, YET THE 2012'S HAVEN'T BEEN RECALLED? WHY? VEHICLE LEFT US STRANDED MULTIPLE TIMES IN FL HEAT WITH INFANT IN CAR. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 DODGE DURANGO. WHILE TURNING THE IGNITION KEY TO START THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT HEARD A CLICKING NOISE AND THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO START THE ENGINE AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. IN ADDITION, WHILE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE WIRING FOR THE FUEL PUMP RELAY INSIDE THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 38,000.

THE ISSUE BEGAN AS I TOOK MY TRUCK IN FOR A RECALL ON THE BRAKE SYSTEM. I INFORMED THAT I WAS HAVING ISSUES WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM NOT FUNCTIONING. SINCE THEN THE CRUISE CONTROL ISSUE HAD A DIAGNOSTIC THAT DARCARS IS INFORMING THERE IS NOT ISSUE BUT NO REPLACEMENT OR SUGGESTIONS HAVE BEEN PRESENTED. I BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE PUSH START AROUND 8/1. WHEN TRYING TO START THE TRUCK IT WILL NOT TURN OVER AND EVENTUALLY WILL STALL OUT COMPLETELY. SO I ATTEMPTED TO REMOTE START WHICH WORKED FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. SOON IT BEGAN TO CAUSE THE SAME PROBLEM. SINCE THEN I HAVE BEEN STARTING THE CAR WITH THE KEY. UNTIL 9/22, ON THAT MORNING MY SON STATED HE HEARD A HISSING SOUND FROM THE REAR DRIVER TIRE. I ALSO HEARD THIS SOUND AT APPROXIMATELY 2:15 PM. WHICH PROMPTED ME TO CALL DARCARS SERVICE CENTER BECAUSE...

THIS CAR DOES NOT ALWAYS START AND CAN STALL AT ANY TIME. CHRYSLER HAS RECALLED THE 2011 MODELS AS OF 2 DAYS AGO FOR A FAULTY TIPM, MY 2012 HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH THE EXACT SAME PART AND I AM HAVING TO PAY $1400 TO REPLACE IT. *TR

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO WOULD ACTED LIKE IT WAS HAVING A HARD TIME TURNING OVER WHEN I WOULD START IT. ONE TIME ALL OF MY AUXILIARY LIGHTS LIT UP AND THEN THE ENTIRE SUV CUT OFF. AFTER I HAD MY OIL CHANGED 09/08/14 MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO STARTED HAVING EVEN MORE ISSUES WITH STARTING UP . IT WOULD TAKE ME ANYWHERE FROM 3-10 TIMES TO GET IT STARTED. I HEARD A SIZZLING SOUND UNDER THE SUV AFTER I HAD PARKED IT AND GOT HOME. THE NEXT MORNING THE ENTIRE SUV WAS DEAD. MY NEIGHBOR WAS ABLE TO JUMP START IT, SO I WENT AND PURCHASED A BRAND NEW BATTERY. IT STILL HAD ISSUES STARTING, BUT AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS IT WOULD FINALLY TURN OVER. IT EVEN COMPLETELY CUT OFF ON ME WHILE I WAS SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT. LAST NIGHT I HEARD THE SAME SIZZLING SOUND SOMEWHERE...

TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM) - TRIED TO START MY CAR ONE MORNING AND IT WOULDN'T START. MADE SOUNDS LIKE IT WAS TRYING TO TURN OVER SO I STOPPED AND TRIED AGAIN AND IT STARTED. EACH DAY IT GOT WORSE. THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN AT LUNCH AND AFTER WORK SO WAS HAPPENING 3 TIMES A DAY. CAR STARTED TO STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET OR MAKE ODD SOUNDS LIKE THE ENGINE WAS REVVING UP. ALMOST GOT HIT BY A CAR WITH MY YOUNG SON IN THE CAR AND STARTED TO GET TO A POINT WHEN IT JUST DIDN'T WANT TO HARDLY START AFTER TRYING FOR 10 OR MORE MINUTES. TOOK TO THE SHOP AND AFTER WAITING FOR 3 DAYS THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE TIPM MODULE AND WOULD COST $1281.15 TO FIX. THIS WAS JUST TODAY. I TOLD HIM I DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY. I...

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SATURDAY, AUGUST 30, 2014. TOOK CAR TO THE DODGE DEALER AND WAS TOLD ON FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 2014 THAT THE ISSUE WAS A FAULTY AIR IN TAKE SENSOR. ON SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 2014 THE AIR INTAKE SENSOR WAS REPLACED. DEALERSHIP WAS GETTING READY TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE 30 MILES TO ALLOW THE SYSTEM TO RESET WHEN THEY DISCOVERED THE PROBLEM WAS WITH THE TIPM (COMPUTER SYSTEM WHICH IS THE BRAINS OF THE VEHICLE). THE FAULTY TIPM IS PREVENTING THE FUEL INJECTOR TO FUNCTION PROPERLY AT START UP SO THAT THE VEHICLE STALLS AND FAILS TO START. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS THE VEHICLE WILL START BUT IF LEFT IDLE WILL STALL AND ENGINE CUTS OFF. *TR

2012 DODGE DURANGO, 5.7. HEMI, KEYLESS START, AUTO TRANSMISSION. SINCE VEHICLE WAS RELATIVELY NEW, WOULD OCCASIONALLY NOT START, STARTER WOULD ENGAGE, BUT TO IGNITION. WITHIN THE LAST 2 MONTHS HAS GOTTEN WORSE, NOW APPROXIMATELY 70% OF THE TIME, VEHICLE WILL NOT START USING THE PUSH TO START. IF LOCK THE VEHICLE AND USE REMOTE START FROM THE KEY FOB, WILL 95% OF TIME START. MUST THEN UNLOCK THE VEHICLE AND PRESS THE PUSH TO START BUTTON. SOMETIMES THE ENGINE WILL AT THIS POINT RUN ROUGH AND STALL. MUST THEN REPEAT THE PROCESS. RARELY THE KEY WILL NOT BE DETECTED WHILE IN THE VEHICLE. EITHER KEY FOB IS THE SAME AND THEY HAVE NEW CR2032 BATTERIES IN THEM. TIPM IS AT FAULT. VEHICLE NOW HAS APPROXIMATELY 57,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED MODULAR ENGINE (TIME) HAS HAD MANY PROBLEMS SINCE THE PURCHASE OF THE 2012 DODGE DURANGO. THE SUV HAS STOPPED DEAD WHILE IN DRIVE ON INTERSTATE 95. THE PANEL LIGHTS HAS ALL COME ON ALL AT ONCE WHILE DRIVING. THE ENGINE HAS STALLED AND WOULD NOT RESTART SEVERAL TIMES LATE AT NIGHT. THE EXTERIOR LIGHTS HAS GONE OFF COMPLETELY AT NIGHT WITHOUT PANEL LIGHT NOTIFICATION. THE FOG LIGHTS WILL NOT WORK AT ALL TIMES. THE RADIO AT TIMES WILL NOT PAY. THE PUSH START BUTTON WILL NOT ALWAYS START THE VEHICLE. THE ENGINE PERMITS A FOUL ORDER AT TIMES. THE ENGINE HAS GONE FROM AUTOMATIC TO MANUAL DRIVE WITHOUT PLACEMENT IN MANUAL. THE BRAKE PEDAL WILL NOT COME BACK AFTER BEING PUSHED TO THE FLOOR. THE MOTHER BOARD HAS HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM HAS SHUT DOWN - VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE...

VEHICLE FAILED TO START. POSSIBLY RUINED THE BATTERY. *TR

2012 DODGE DURANGO CREW V6 TIPM PROBLEM. VEHICLE IS STARTING TO SHOW SIGNS OF A FAULTY/FAILING TIPM AS MANY OTHERS ARE AND RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED BY CHRYSLER AS THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT HAS OCCURRED IN THE PAST. THIS FAILURE CAN CAUSE THE AIRBAGS NOT TO DEPLOY WHEN NEEDED AND CAN CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING POSSIBLE CAUSING A TRAFFIC ACCIDENT. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY HAVING A HARD TIME STARTING AS NO POWER IS BEING FED TO THE FUEL PUMP. *TR

I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE TIPM IS DEFECTIVE. THE CAR WILL CRANK AND NOT START. THE CAR SAYS THAT IS RUNNING AND IS NOT. IT HAS SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. *TR

AIRBAG LIGHT, THEN LOSS OF POWER. HARD TO CRANK AND WILL LOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING. *TR

I HAVE A 2012 DODGE DURANGE RT. WHEN PARKED AT A GAS STATION, TRIED TO TURN ENGINE ON WITH PUSH START SWITCH AND ENGINE DOES NOT START. WHEN PUSHING START SWITCH AGAIN IT MAKES THE SOUND LIKE THE ENGINE IS TRYING TO TURN OVER BUT DOES NOTHING. IN ORDER TO GET THE ENGINE TO STOP FROM MAKING THE TURN OVER NOISE I HAVE TO MOVE FROM PARK TO IN GEAR. THEN I RECEIVE THE "IGNITION OR ACCESSORY ON" MESSAGE. IN ORDER TO GET THE MESSAGE CLEAR I HAVE TO TURN OFF VEHICLE WITHOUT PRESSING THE BRAKE. THIS PUTS THE ENGINE INTO THE OFF MODE AND I HAVE TO START THE PROCESS TO GET THE CAR TO START ALL OVER AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND I HAVE VIDEO TO SHOW THE DEFECT. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH AND READ THIS ISSUE WITH MANY PEOPLE SAYING IT IS THE TIPM DEFECT....

TIPM FAILED. TOOK OVER A WEEK TO ORDER PART. CAR IS UNSAFE DUE TO THIS MALFUNCTION. *TR

OUR 2012 DODGE DURANGO R/T WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW AS A REPLACEMENT FOR LEMON LAW BUY BACK OF OUR 2009 DODGE JOURNEY. THE DURANGO IS PLAGUED WITH DESIGN FLAWS. THE MOST OBVIOUS IS THE TIPM TOTAL INTEGRATED MODULE. THE FAILURE OF THIS MODULE RESULTING IN OUR VEHICLE CATCHING FIRE. THE VEHICLE CRANKS BUT DOES NOT START AT TIMES, OTHER TIMES WHEN IT STARTS IT DIES IN THE STREET. WHILE TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS THEY WOULD NOT REPAIR IT AND ANOTHER DEALER DENIED THE REPAIRS. THE ONLY LOANER I WAS PLACED IN WAS A BRAND NEW DURANGO WITH THE PLASTIC STILL COVERING THE SEATS, FLOOR ETC. THE BRAND NEW LOANER ALSO CONTAINED A FAULTY TIPM. WE DIDN'T EVEN HAVE THE LOANER A DAY BECAUSE THE LIGHTS WERE BRIGHT LIGHTING EVERYONE, ALARM WAS GOING OFF DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, RADIO WAS CRACKLING, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WAS FLASHING. OUR DURANGO...

I WAS SETTING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT WHEN MY HEADLIGHTS CAME ON AND ALL DASH LIGHTS WENT OUT,ANOTHER OCCASION PARKED AND MAP LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT SHUT OFF ALSO DASH LIGHTS WENT OUT THIS IS HAPPENING TO OFTEN I HAVE HAD IT IN THE DEALER WITH NO LUCK I WILL NOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AT NIGHT BECAUSE TO ME IT IS UNSAFE.THIS HAS HAPPENED FIVE TIMES. *TR

THERE HAS BEEN MORE THAN ONE INCIDENT DATE ON THIS ISSUE. I JUST ENTERED THE LAST TIME IT HAS HAPPENED. WHEN GOING TO START MY VEHICLE IT STARTS, THAN AUTOMATICALLY STALLS. I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN OVER 6 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 MONTHS. I HAVE READ COUNTLESS REPORTS OF OTHER CHRYSLER VEHICLES HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE...WITH THE TIPM. HOW THERE IS A NATIONAL BACK ORDER AND PEOPLE'S CARS HAVE BEEN IN SHOPS FOR OVER A MONTH. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL AND GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED! *TR
