Five problems related to sway bar have been reported for the 1999 Dodge Durango. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
While driving my car stalls out, I keep having problems with ball joints, my sway bar or chain has busted, seat belt for driver will not retract, rust and erosion has been so bad that I actually had to replace the whole front bumper assembly, and I have no heat.
I bought my Durango in March of 2011 from a dealership with no warranty. I have had so many problems with this truck since then it has been a money pit. My main concern was how bad the suspension is on this truck, around August I was driving and the passenger side tie rod completly broke, thankfully I wasn't going fast so I had control over the vehicle. So when I fixed the tie rod I did both because I didn't wan't the same thing happening again so while getting the tie rod fixed the lower passenger ball joint falls off so I wound up doing a pair of those also, so when I get the grease fittings greased, the mechanic tells me I need sway bar links really bad so I do those also. So all these problems, and I have to pay a monthly note for this piece of crap and the dealer is not willing to do anything to help me. Now it's January 2012 and I go for a oil change and mechanic tells me my ball joints and tie rods are shot. I ask him how can that be they been replaced less than 6 months ago, he said my shocks are terrible. This has been beyond frustrating and I have children that ride in this truck. I was reading and I saw all the complaints about the ball joint problem in this truck, I can not afford to fix the same problem again.
99 Dodge Durango was running good. Started hearing a knocking noise when going over bumps. Found mounting to rear sway bar on driver side separated from bar. Defective part available if needed.
I have a 1999 Dodge Durango trouble with ball joints. Do you plan to include it in the recall. All of the ball joint experienced movement and the sway bar bushing(s) were making noises.
There was a loud squeaking noise in the front end of the vehicle while in motion. Upon inspection of vehicle by the dealership, they noticed that the sway bar bushings collapsed.
