I was driving at around 45 MPH when my rear spoiler suddenly detached from my 2022 vehicle. It was only held on by one latch and the wire for the rear camera. This could have caused a serious accident — even a fatal one — if it had come completely off. I looked online and saw that this issue has happened to other owners, and that there is a recall related to this defect. However, when I called Dodge, I was told that since my VIN isn’t listed under the recall, they can’t assist me. This seems incredibly unsafe and unfair, considering the potential for serious injury or death. I will gladly have anyone inspect the spoiler if needed. My car has had no warning or prior issues at all. I bought it new in 2022, and I believe this is a significant safety concern that needs to be addressed....
Rear spoiler flew off on highway as I was on my way to my son‘s [XXX] birthday party with a vehicle full of children. This is a major concern because it could have endanger the people in the vehicle as well as the people outside of the vehicle on the highway. This was a disaster. No one was hurt, but I have full intentions on contacting my attorney. After research there was a recall for 2021 through 2023 on spoilers for the Dodge Durango possibly not being intact and could potentially fly off. I purchased this vehicle with less than 500 miles on it at the end of 2023 December to be exact I was never notified of a recall and after a year and a half later, it happened to me. What should I do and how should I proceed? I have pictures and videos. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO...

I have an open safety recall on my 2021 Dodge Durango R/T. Upon receiving the paperwork in the mail I brought my car to a dealer to get it assessed. During that appointment, it was decided that I did need the recall part to be ordered and replaced. The dealer sent me on my way. I called back today to get an idea of when this would be performed and unfortunately, they said Chrysler did not have any parts available and that my part had effectively no ETA on it. I called Chrysler Customer Care to see what they could do in helping me locate the part. The service person on the other end of the phone told me that the car was safe to drive and there was absolutely NOTHING they could do for me and that I would have to wait. I then informed the service person I...
I was driving on the freeway in clear weather, no traffic, and smooth driving. Suddenly, the rear spoiler made a loud sound and broke free from the vehicle. While it was falling, it also broke off a large portion of the rear wiper, and both rear wiper and rear spoiler crashed onto the freeway behind me. All I could see was a small hose and a wire hanging out the back. I pulled off the freeway and took pictures of my mileage as well as the affected areas of the vehicle. Dodge has a recall for this exact problem on some VIN's of the same model year as my vehicle, but my specific VIN is not covered by the existing recall. The existing Dodge recall reference number is Y73.
2021 Dodge Durango R/T power liftgate fails to recoil when an obstruction is met before latching. The liftgate will squeeze upon object and try to latch and then it just stalls. The problem has been demonstrated over and over again at two different dodge service centers. It has been replicated by technicians in the field. FCA Corporate is aware of my complaint. The field representative said this is normal. If this was a child’s hand or an animal’s paw, it would be crushed, until it stalls. The owners manual clearly states if anything obstructs the powerlift gate while it’s closing or opening the liftgate will automatically reverse to the closed or open position after multiple obstructions in the same cycle to liftgate will automatically stop and must be opened or closed manually. This happens on the first attempt not multiple attempts. There is nothing in the owners manual warning customers...
The rear spoiler detach while driving
I PURCHASED A 2021 DODGE DURANGO GT FROM ARRIGO DODGE- FT PIERCE ON 12/31/20. THE PICTURE THEY HAD IN THE ADVERTISEMENT SHOWS A SPORT HOOD. THE VEHICLE WAS IN ANOTHER COUNTY SO THEY DELIVERED IT AT NIGHT TO MY HOME. BEFORE PURCHASING IT, I ASKED THE MANAGER TO DOUBLE CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE HOOD WAS IN FACT THE SPORT HOOD IN THE PICTURE ADVERTISED. HE CALLED & CHECKED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE HOOD WAS THE SPORT HOOD. IT WAS DELIVERED WITH A DIFFERENT HOOD. I BELIEVE THIS IS FALSE ADVERTISEMENT. I WANT THE HOOD THAT THEY PROMISED ME. NOW THE EVEN BIGGER ISSUES. I WAS WASHING MY VEHICLE WHEN I DISCOVERED A CRIMPED RUBBER PART ALONG THE DRIVER'S SIDE PASSENGER DOOR. THEN A PAINT DEFECT AROUND THE WINDOW. THEN THE DOOR BEING CROOKED AND NOT LINED WITH THE VEHICLE. WITH ALL THE DAMAGE TO THE DOOR, I BELIEVE THERE...
