I WAS TAKING MY SON TO TUTORIALS. I TURNED RIGHT AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. TO KEEP FROM HAVING AN ACCIDENT, I HAD TO SLOWLY VEER TO THE LEFT UPON THE MEDIAN. I TURNED ON THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS. THE RADIO WAS STILL PLAYING, BUT THE CAR HAD SIMPLY STOPPED MOVING. I PRESSED THE ENGINE BUTTON TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. THEN I PRESSED IT AGAIN TO RESTART IT. IT STARTED WITH NO PROBLEMS AND I CONTINUED TO TAKE MY SON TO TUTORIALS. *TR

IN DECEMBER 2011 I PURCHASED A NEW 2012 DODGE DURANGO CITADEL FROM NORTHTOWN DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (NDCJR), IN TONAWANDA, NY. I AM HAVING AN ISSUES WITH PERIODIC STALLING WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING. IN APRIL 2016 WHILE SLOWING DOWN TO EXIT RIGHT VIA A THRUWAY RAMP THE DURANGO STALLED AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED WITHOUT ANY WARNING. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE INTO NDCJR ON 4/30/2016 AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE 'UNABLE TO MAKE ANY REPAIRS BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE'. IN JULY 2016, MY HUSBAND EXPERIENCED THE STALLING WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN. MY MOST TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE CAME IN AUGUST OF 2016 WHEN I WAS ON A MAIN ROAD IN BUSY EVENING TRAFFIC, SLOWING DOWN TO MERGE INTO THE LEFT TURNING LANE, AND THE CAR COMPLETELY STALLED AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKING AGAIN ALMOST CAUSING ME TO REAR END THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. I CONTACTED NCDJR TO...

PULLED OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND VEHICLE WENT INTO "LIMP MODE". WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY MOVE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BUT ALMOST GOT HIT. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS VEHICLE HAS DONE THIS. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR THIS PROBLEM. *TR

BRAND NEW VEHICLE LEASE. AT DEALERSHIP WHEN VEHICLE WAS PUT IN GEAR ENGINE STALLED 4 TIMES. SALESMAN ENTERED VEHICLE AND ACCELERATED ENGINE THEN PUT IN GEAR AND VEHICLE CONTINUED TO RUN AND STATED VEHICLE WAS OK. ABOUT 30 MILES AWAY WHEN COMING TO A STOP BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC VEHICLE STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY 50MPH INTERSECTION AND WAS ALMOST STRUCK BY A ONCOMING TRACTOR TRAILER. AFTER LOCKING UP HIS BRAKES AN ACCIDENT WAS JUST BARELY AVOIDED. IT TOOK 4 TRIES TO GET THE DURANGO TO MOVE AGAIN WITHOUT SHUTTING OFF. VEHICLE IS AT THE DEALER NOW AND THEY DO NOT KNOW AS OF YET WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND REFUSE TO GIVE ME A DIFFERENT VEHICLE. MY FAMILY COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. *TR
