I have 30,000 miles on my 2002 Durango slt plus. I have had the rear replaced twice and it still makes noise. My entire family just missed a accident ( 3 children) because the antilock brakes do not function properly under awd mode. The transmission is clunking everytime we stop. The ball joints are wearing out! just found out seat belts are unsafe! I am scared to death for my family !.
Purchased Durango new Jan 2002 in kentucky. Within 6 months Dodge recalled it to replace whole back axle assembly (Dodge stated it was too small for Durango). Since owning, when putting into reverse the transmission hesitates, and the vehicle barely moves (dealer stated could not find any problem). In alaska the check engine light comes on when going from warm garage into cold outdoors, stays on for a week (dealer could not find anything wrong). Loud pounding noise when traveling above 40 mph with back windows down. Durango has less than 20,000 miles and back seat shows considerable wear where seat belt latch contacts seat (poor design/placement of latch).
