general problems of the 2003 Dodge Durango

The obd reader on my 2003 Durango brings up code for central timing module and eeprm checksum error were the safety recall is in order but the VIN number is not in the list of recall. It has all the specification of recall but VIN number isn't in the list of recalls. I'm driving around in a unsafe vehicle due to manufacturing error that my VIN number is the only thing why they won't fix it. Why do they not care if I kill myself or others from this that the recall is.

I was driving along when all lights inside and out started to flash on and off at a very fast rat. The car continued to drive ok. Ever since these lights continue to flash. I have talked to a few mechanics and have had different ideas. I can't invest a few hundred dollars on maybe s. Please help. Millage is 126000.

Tl-the contact owns a 2003 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that the front lights were flickering on and off. The lights on the dash board do the same. No warning lights illuminated. Driving the vehicle is very difficult during dusk's hours. Visibility is at a minimum becasue of the flickering. The vehicle was not towed. The vehicle was taken to (702) 963-8000 desert 215 super store 8030 rafel rivera way las vegas, nv. They informed that the piece that they needed was called a body modual compartment. However, Dodge does not make this piece anymore. They informed the contact that they would have to go on line and order this piece themseleves. Then bring it in to the dealer so they can install it. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was not informed. Failure mileage unknown. Jw.

The contact owns a 2003 Dodge Durango. While driving approximately 20 mph, the headlamp flickered on and off. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the central timer module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 02v322000 (exterior lighting). The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The VIN was unknown. The approximate failure mileage was 104,000.

Since purchasing this vehicle new it has had major electrical issues. The sad part, nobody at Dodge cared. It would shift into 4wd low at dangerous speeds. After taking to several Dodge dealers none could or would fix it. Dodge themselves basically laughed at ripping off yet another customer. Nhtsb has totally ignored the thousands of consumers with issues on these vehicles. Ours is another that have the pulsating lights problem that apparently NHTSA and Dodge feel it isn't an issue to have your lights turn off while driving in traffic at 70 mph. Apparently in the automotive/govt. Relationship as long as the vehicle hasn't killed all of us yet everything is okay. At least the Dodge dealers are doing well. They've raked in more cash by denying the issue and throwing expensive parts at these lemons. My question is this: if these vehicles have had a recall on :"specific" VIN's yet thousands of others have the same issue how does the NHTSA justify leaving those consumers without help or protection?.

2003 Dodge Durango: after about 15 minutes of driving we hear clicking noises and see lights (exterior and interior) flickering. Starts with just a few clicks and flickers and then became worse the longer we drive. Took it to a shop, they couldn't find a problem. Happened again a week later (vehicle not driven much at night) and returned to shop. Still couldn't find a problem so they researched and found multiple similar complaints regarding the central timing module. Checked with the dealership, ours not covered under the recall. Dealership said $550 to fix. This is not the first (or second, third, fourth, or fifth) problem we've have with this vehicle.

First the key fobs stopped unlocking the doors then the lights stopped working was told that the central timer module was defective and that the dealer would replace. Chrysler denies there is a problem with this module.

Wife driving home from work head lights flashed on and off and wipers front stop working on low just on high and back stop all together lights just work if drivers door is open took to dealer ship was told that the ctm was bad informed dealer ship that I say a recall on this was told not for my Durango.
