2014 DODGE DURANGO Electrical System Problems

REAR LIGHT BAR GOT WATER IN IT AT 30,000 MILES DEALER REFUSED TO ACCEPT THE PROBLEM AND FIX IT. REAR LIGHT BAR NOW ELECTRICAL SHORTED OUT FROM WATER

I'VE NOTICE THAT WHEN I'M DRIVING ON HIGHWAYS OR AROUND THE CITY, WIPERS COME ON BY ITSELF. THAT HAPPEN TWICE... SOMETIMES THE SUNROOF DON'T OPEN, WHEN THE SUNROOF OPENS DON'T WANT TO CLOSE SOMETIMES. WHEN I'M ON THE HIGHWAY CAN'T SEEM TO GET ENOUGH POWER TO CATCH UP WITH TRAFFIC, SEEMS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS ABOUT TO GIVE OUT. VERY LAGGY....THE NOTIFICATION FOR ENGINE/TRANS COMES OFF/ON AT TIMES. OTHER TO SOUND WEIRD BUT I BELIEVE SOMEONE HAS ACCESS REMOTELY TO VEHICLE. ALL THIS HAPPENS ON A DAILY OR EVERY FEW DAYS I'VE NOTICED.

REAR "RACE TRACK" STYLE TAIL LIGHTS ON THE BACK TAIL GATE FILL WITH WATER AND, AS A CONSEQUENCE, THE LEDS LOW ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, WHERE THE WATER POOLED,ARE NOT WORKING. THIS OCCURS DURING RAINFALL REGARDLESS OF STATIONARY OR UNDER MOTION. I DO NOT KNOW HOW LONG THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON. I NOTICED IT IN NOVEMBER 2017.

FOR 2 YEARS WE HAD ISSUES WITH WORN INNER WALLS IN FRONT & STEERING SHAKE. WE BROUGHT IT IN WITH EXTENDED WARRANTY ALONG WITH VIDEO OF NOISE FROM SELF DIAGNOSTIC. OUR CONCERNS WERE DISMISSED BY DEALERSHIP & ANOTHER AUTOMOTIVE SHOP INFORMED ME THAT BOTH FRONT HUBS WERE BAD. CALLED DEALERSHIP AGAIN & SAME DISMISSAL. WE CHANGED BOTH HUBS AT OUR OWN EXPENSE AND PROBLEM FIXED. BUSHING WAS MAKING HORRENDOUS NOISE AND ALSO DISMISSED BY DEALERSHIP. CHANGED THAT ON OUR OWN EXPENSE AND ISSUE SOLVED. ALTERNATOR WAS SUPPOSEDLY CHANGED DUE TO RECALL BY DEALERSHIP & AFTER INSPECTING IT, WE HAVE BOTH AGREED THAT THE ALTERNATOR HASN'T BEEN TOUCHED. BOLTS SHOW NO SIGNS OF ANY TYPE OF TORQUE AND ALTERNATOR IS DUSTY AND DIRTY AS IS THE REST OF THE COMPONENTS IN ENGINE BAY WHICH ALSO LEAD US TO THE CONCLUSION. THIS VEHICLE WAS AND I BELIEVE STILL IS UNSAFE DUE TO...

I SUBMITTED A PREVIOUS REPORT RELATED TO THIS ISSUE. TODAY MY CAR WAS PARKED ON THE STREET AND TOTALLY STARTED ON ITS OWN. THIS CAR DOES NOT HAVE A REMOTE START. I WAS WALKING TOWARDS MY CAR TRYING TO TURN OFF THE PANIC HORN WHICH WAS SOUNDING. I WAS APPROXIMATELY 15 TO 20 FEET AWAY FROM THE CAR WHEN IT STARTED. THIS IS THE 4TH TIME THIS CAR HAS STARTED ON ITS OWN. THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY THE OTHER THREE TIMES THIS OCCURRED, BUT THE DEALERSHIP CHECKED IT OUT AND SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND A REASON. I AM REALLY CONCERNED THIS COULD OCCUR WHILE THE CAR IS PARKED IN OUR GARAGE AND CAUSE CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING (THE FIRST 3 TIMES IT STARTED ON ITS OWN THE CAR WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE.)*BF *TR

WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE THE PASSENGER SIDE HEAD REST DEPLOYED WITHOUT IMPACT OR WARNING. FAILURE MILAGE WAS 46400. HAD LOCAL CHRYSLER DODGE INSPECT FAILURE AND WAS TOLD THAT HEAD REST NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF 709.49 IN ORDER TO HAVE THE AIR BAG LIGHT RESET.10/

ALTERNATOR IS NOT STAYING CHARGED. HAD TO BE JUMPED MORE THAN ONCE BECAUSE I WILL GET SOMEWHERE AND THE CAR WON'T START. MECHANIC TESTED AND FOUND THE ALTERNATOR IS NOT FULLY CHARGING. GETTING VERY FRUSTRATED THAT I HAVE A VEHICLE THAT IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD ALREADY HAVING PROBLEMS! IF THERE IS A RECALL WHY IS MY VIN NUMBER NOT INCLUDED???? ITS APPARENT THAT THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH THE MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR OF MY VEHICLE!

THERE HAVE BEEN REPORTED ISSUES OF THE UCONNECT STEREO SCREEN GOING BLACK, AND BEING INOPERABLE, RESULTING IN THE OWNER HAVING TO REPLACE THE STEREO COMPLETELY, IF THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT CORRECT IT WITH A HARD RESET VIA THEIR DIAGNOSTIC MACHINES. INFORMED BY "ROYAL" WITH THE ONLINE DODGE CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT, THIS ISN'T COVERED UNDER WARRANTIES OR OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTIES. SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE FROM 2012 TO THE PRESENT AND THE DEALERSHIPS NEED TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR COVERING THE COST OF THIS DEFECT. I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE IN 2014, BRAND NEW, AND THIS IS THE 3RD YEAR HAVING THE TRUCK. STEREOS DO NOT JUST GO BLACK, I'VE OWNED PLENTY (MORE LUXURY LINED THAN DODGES). I'VE BEEN DRIVING WITH A BLACK STEREO SCREEN SINCE 7/26/2017 - UNACCEPTABLE.

A/C WILL NOT WORK--RELAY THAT IS BUILT INTO THE POWER MODULE WILL NOT FUNCTION--DEALER SAYS THEY WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE EXPENSIVE MODULE. CAN NOT GET THE PART.

IT STARTED BLACKING OUT THE SWING I WOULD HAVE TO RESTART THE CAR FOR IT TO TURN BACK ON NEXT THING YOU KNOW MY SCREEN SHUT OFF FOR GOOD I'M NOT ABLE TO CONTROL THE AIR ON MY ABLE TO PUT MUSIC I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER ANYTHING BECAUSE THAT SCREEN IS TOUCH SCREEN AND IT'S NOT MANUAL

OUR DURANGO WILL JUST COMPLETELY GO HAYWIRE (DISPLAY SCREEN, LIGHTS - INTERIOR, DASH, AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS, THE 3RD ROW HEAD RESTS WILL AUTOMATICALLY GO DOWN, DOORS LOCK/UNLOCK) AND SHUT DOWN WHILE IN MOTION. ALL POWER GOES OUT AND THE VEHICLE BECOMES IMPOSSIBLE TO REGAIN CONTROL.

WIPERS WON'T SHUT OFF, NO TURN SIGNALS, BLIND SPOT MONITOR NOT WORKING, HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS NOT WORKING, WINDSHIELD WASHERS NOT WORKING, ALL STEERING WHEEL BUTTONS, LEVERS NOT OPERATING, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT ON, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. WORRIED THAT STEERING WHEEL AIRBAG IS ALSO INOPERABLE. THIS HAPPENED AFTER DRIVING A FULLY FUNCTIONING TRUCK, PARKED IT AND SHUT IT OFF. 10 MINUTES LATER STARTED THE TRUCK AND ALL OF THE ITEMS LISTED ABOVE OCCURRED. THE DEALER, SECURITY DODGE OF AMITYVILLE, REPLACED A FUSE BUT WAS TOLD THEY CANNOT FIND A REASON WHY THE FUSE FAILED. TRUCK WORKED FINE ON THE RIDE HOME, PARKED IT AND TURNED IT OFF. TEN MINUTES LATER STARTED THE TRUCK AND ALL THE SAME ITEMS (SEE ABOVE) FAILED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V634000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) MORE THAN A YEAR AGO AND THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME FRAME TO RECEIVE THE REPAIR FROM THE DEALER.

UPDATED 03/16/16*LJ THE ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED ON 01/20/16.*JB

WHILE DRIVING THE ALERT CHIME INDICATED THAT THE KEY FOB WAS NOT IN RANGE. THEN THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. THE KEY FOB WAS IN THE CUP HOLDER. THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE DRIVE POSITION. I HAD TO STOP. PUT VEHICLE IN PARK, RESTART THE VEHICLE AND THEN PUT IN DRIVE AND CONTINUE DRIVING. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT HAS HAPPENED.

ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM ACTIVATED UPON EXITING VEHICLE AND KEY FOB BECAME DESENSED DUE TO RF INTERFERENCE IN AREA. DASH DISPLAY INDICATED THAT "KEY FOB NOT RECOGNIZED". CAR HAS KEYLESS START BUTTON AND COULD NOT BE STARTED. ALL FUNCTIONS ON KEY FOB WERE NOT OPERATIONAL. ROADSIDE TOWING ASSISTANCE HAD TO BE REQUESTED.

1) WHEN TURNING ON VENTILATION SEATS - DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEAT BLOW HOT AIR INSTEAD OF COOL AIR. CAUSED A MILD BURN FOR DRIVER AND PASSENGER. IN SERVICE - WIRING DEFECT. 2) TAILLIGHTS (LED) STOPPED WORKING WHEN DRIVING AND BRAKING. ONLY TURN ON WHEN IN PARK. IN SERVICE. 3) SUNROOF STOPPED WORKING TWICE. HAD TO TURN CAR IN FOR SERVICE 2 TIMES. FIRST TIME WORKED WITH A REPLACED PART. WAITED OVER 2 WEEKS FOR THE PART TO ARRIVE. THEN 2 WEEKS LATER, IT BROKE. IN SERVICE - WIRING DEFECT.

I STARTED MY DODGE DURANGO WITH REMOTE START TO COOL THE CAR DOWN BEFORE MY FAMILY GOT IN THE VEHICLE. MY WIFE, SISTER-IN-LAW, AND BOYS GOT IN THE VEHICLE AS I WALKED TOWARDS THE DRIVER SIDE. MY WIFE REACHED OVER FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE TO START THE VEHICLE AND TURN ON ALL ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS. ONCE THE START BUTTON WAS PRESSED THE VEHICLE DISENGAGED FROM PARK AND STARTED MOVING IN REVERSE REACHING APPROXIMATELY 20MPH UNTIL MY WIFE JUMPED ON TO THE DRIVER SEAT AND WAS ABLE TO HIT THE BRAKES. THE SHIFT WAS IN THE PARK POSITION SO ALL SHE COULD DO WAS TURN OFF THE VEHICLE. THANKFULLY, THERE WAS NO INJURY DONE TO MY FAMILY OR PEDESTRIANS. MY DURANGO DID HIT TWO PARKED VEHICLES THAT MY INSURANCE PAID TO REPAIR. I CALLED CHRYSLER TO FILE A COMPLAINT THAT SAME DAY AND THEY REQUESTED FOR THE VEHICLE TO BE DROPPED OFF...

THIS IS A COMPLAINT CONCERNING THE LENGTH OF TIME IT HAS TAKEN SO FAR TO GET THE ALTERNATOR RECALL (NHTSA 14V-634 REPAIRED BY OUR DEALERSHIP, BREWBAKER MOTORS IN MONTGOMERY, AL. WE RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE SHORTLY AFTER THE 1ST OF THE YEAR. WE WERE TOLD FOR AT LEAST 2 MONTHS THAT THE PARTS WERE ON BACKORDER. I CALLED AGAIN IN MAY AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD BE GETTING BOTH PARTS IN IN ABOUT 2 WEEKS. THE PARTS MANAGER DID CALL ME AROUND THE 1ST WEEK IN JUNE TO SET THE APPOINTMENT. WE HAD 2 RECALLED PARTS, AIRBAG AND THE ALTERNATOR. WE TOOK THE CAR IN, LEFT IT OVERNIGHT, PICKED IT UP THE NEXT DAY AND ONLY THE AIRBAG PART HAD BEEN REPLACED. WHEN QUESTIONED THEY SAID THE ALTERNATOR PART WAS NOT IN (AFTER THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID BOTH PARTS WERE IN), AND THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THEY WERE IN....

THE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK IN A PARKING SPACE AND RUNNING WITH MY DAUGHTER, MOTHER-IN-LAW, AND FATHER-IN-LAW SITTING IN THE BACKSEAT. I REACHED IN FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR OF THE VEHICLE AND PRESSED THE IGNITION TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. THE VEHICLE IGNORED MY COMMAND, THE DASH BEGAN FLASHING, AND THE CAR ENGAGED IN DRIVE AND TOOK OFF DRIVING ACROSS THE PARKING GARAGE. I HAD TO SPRINT AROUND THE VEHICLE AND JUMP IN TO THE DRIVERS SEAT TO ENGAGE THE BRAKE AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF BEFORE IT COLLIDED WITH OTHER VEHICLES IN THE GARAGE.

VEHICLE WAS PARKED AT A BOAT LAUNCH IN PREPARATION OF PUTTING BOAT ON TRAILER. CAR WAS IN PARK, ENGINE IDLING. GOT OUT OF THE CAR TO RETRIEVE BOAT WHILE PARTNER WOULD DRIVE THE CAR OUT AFTER BOAT WAS TRAILERED. WHILE PARTNER WAS ATTEMPTING TO GET BEHIND THE WHEEL, CAR SUDDENLY STARTED BACKING INTO THE LAKE UNTIL SUBMERGED. THE TRANSMISSION WAS STILL IN PARK UNTIL TOW TRUCK OPERATOR GOT INTO THE VEHICLE TO MANUALLY RELEASE TRANSMISSION IN ORDER TO TOW OUT. PROBABLY NOT REPAIRABLE.

DROVE THE CAR OFF THE LOT ON FRIDAY. ON MONDAY ON MY WAY TO THE SUPERMARKET THE TRUCK LOST POWER STARTED SHAKING AND A BURNING SMELL FILLED THE CABIN. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. SERVICE SAID IT WAS A FAULTY BATTERY AND CHANGED IT. ON WEDNESDAY THE SAME THING HAPPENED RETURNED TO THE DEALER. TRUCK WAS KEPT FOR TWO DAYS. SERVICE COULD NOT RE-CREATE THE PROBLEM. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THE SYSTEM WAS RESET AND IT SHOULD BE FINE. *TR

MY CAR WAS IN PARK IN THE PARKING LOT OF MY CHILDREN'S DAYCARE CENTER. I SPILLED TEA IN THE CUP HOLDER, WHICH CAUSED THE GEAR SHIFTER TO SHORT OUT AND DISABLE MY VEHICLE. WORKING FOR AN ELECTRONICS SUPPLIER, I'VE BEEN INFORMED THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHICH COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO STOP DRIVING IF LIQUID WERE TO SHORT THIS CIRCUIT OUT WHILE DRIVING. CHRYSLER IS STATING THAT THIS IS NOT THEIR ISSUE, WHICH IS COMPLETELY FALSE, AS IT IS A DESIGN ISSUE. *TR

WHEN TURNING ON THE TURN SIGNAL INDICATER THE WIND SHIELD WIPERS COME ON EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE IN THE OFF POSITION. ONCE THEY COME ON THEY CONTINUE TO RUN. ON OCCASION THEY WILL TURN OFF WHEN RUNNING THROUGH A VARIETY OF OPTIONS ON THE SAME STICK SUCH AS FLASHING THE BRIGHT LIGHT (PULL IN THE STICK) OR TURNING ON THE SIGNAL AGAIN IN THE OTHER DIRETION. THERE IS NO RHYME OR REASON TO ANY OF IT. THIS PAST WEEKEND I PRESSED THE BUTTON TO START AND THE WIPERS WENT ON EVEN THOUGH THE INDICATOR IS IN THE OFF POSITION. THEN SUDDENLY THE RADIO WENT ON EVEN THOUGH WE DID NOT TURN IT ON AND THIS CAUSED THE WIPERS TO STOP. THIS LOOKS A LOT LIKE A MAJOR ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AND WE ARE NOT CONCERNED THAT THIS MIGHT BE A TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE PROBLEM WHICH IS CURRENTLY UNDER INVIESTICATION FOR...

PURCHASED VEHICLE 31 DECEMBER 2013. ACTUALLY GOT VEHICLE ABOUT SIX DAYS LATER. ON 22 JANUARY 2014, I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AT THE END OF MY DRIVEWAY SO I COULD CHECK THE MAIL. WHILE WALKING BACK TO THE VEHICLE FORM THE MAILBOX, THE VEHICLE STARTING BACKING UP A HILL ON ITS OWN. I HAD TO RUN NEXT TO THE VEHICLE, HANGING PARTIALLY INSIDE THE CAB, TO ATTEMPT TO SHUT OFF VEHICLE. VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. I HAD TO PUSH DOWN EMERGENCY BRAKE WITH MY HAND IN ORDER TO GET VEHICLE TO STOP. VEHICLE ALSO HAS USED ACTIVE BRAKING FEATURE AND THE ACTIVE BRAKING ALARM HAS SOUNDED TO INFORM ME THAT I WAS TOO CLOSE TO A VEHICLE, THOUGH THERE WAS NO VEHICLE IN SITE (THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES). VEHICLE RANDOMLY STARTS ON IT OWN. VEHICLE ALSO REMOTE STARTS ON ITS OWN. SOMETIMES THE VEHICLE STATES IT IS...

ON APPROX JULY 16TH MY CHECK LIGHT ENGINE CAME ON. THE CAR IS BRAND NEW WITH 3K MILES. I TOOK IT IN JULY 26TH TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK AND WAS TOLD THE OIL PRESSURE SWITCH IS FAULTY, BUT THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER INDEFINITELY. THEY PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT THE CAR IS SAFE, BUT IF SOMETHING ELSE GOES WRONG I WON'T KNOW BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS ALREADY ON. THEY ALSO TOLD ME TO CALL CHRYSLER MYSELF, WHICH WAS EXTREMELY INSULTING AND DEALERSHIP TAKES NO RESPONSIBILITY. RELUCTANTLY, I DID CALL AND THAT TOO DOES NOT HELP. THE PART IS NOT AVAILABLE AND NOBODY CAN GIVE ME ANY ANSWERS. I DON'T BELIEVE CHRYSLER IS TAKING THIS LIABILITY SERIOUSLY AND PUTTING MY WHOLE FAMILY (WITH YOUNG KIDS INCLUDED) AT RISK. I FEEL LIKE THE WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS SLOWING DOWN AS RESPONSE TIME TO NAV, DOOR LOCKS,...

WHILE DRIVING AFTER LEAVING A STORE, THE VEHICLE SOUNDED A WARNING CHIME AND THEN ALL OF THE ELECTRICAL DISPLAYS ON THE DASH WENT DARK. THE VEHICLE DOWNSHIFTED INTO WHAT SEEMED 4TH GEAR FROM 8TH GEAR AND SUDDEN DECELERATION WAS NORED. THE WINDSHIELD WIPER TURNED ON AND THE CENTER RADIO/CLIMATE DISPLAY WOULD FLASH ON AND OFF. THE BRIEF MESSAGE THAT WAS DISPLAYED ON THE DASH BEFORE IT WENT OUT SAID SOMETHING TO THE EFFECT OF, "DO NOT CHANGE GEAR, DO NOT TURN OFF VEHICLE, DRIVE DIRECTLY TO DESTINATION, BY TURNING CAR OFF YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO START IT AGAIN". WE DROVE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC WHERE THEY FOUND SEVERAL COMPUTER FAULTS. THE DEALER HAD THE VEHICLE A TOTAL OF 11 DAYS AND CHANGED THE BODY CONTROL MODULE. WE GOT THE VEHICLE BACK AND THREE DAYS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. WORRIED THAT IF THIS...

VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN HOME BY CUSTOMER WHEN SHE NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO HICCUP AND SPUTTER WHILE TURN A CORNER. AFTER TURNING, THE VEHICLE STALLED. SHE WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PULL TO THE SHOULDER. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, THE VEHICLE RAN OUT OF FUEL. DESPITE THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYING "EMPTY" SHE STATED THAT NO AUDIBLE WARNING CHIME AND THAT THE "LOW FUEL" INDICATOR WAS NOT PROMINENTLY DISPLAYED (STATES THAT IT BLENDS IN WITH THE REST OF THE INFORMATION ON THE MULTIFUNCTION DISPLAY). *TR

2014 DODGE DURANGO. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE HESITATION DURING ACCELERATION. *SMD THE DEALER PERFORMED TESTS, AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. HOWEVER, THE DEALER DID PERFORM A PCM UPDATE. TWO DAYS LATER, THE VEHICLE STALLED IN TRAFFIC. WHEN THE CONSUMER APPLIED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE MADE A STRANGE NOISE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. SHE TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN, AND THE SOUND STOPPED, BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED LIT. WHILE RETURNING TO THE DEALER, THE VEHICLE STALLED AGAIN. *JB
