general problems of the 2003 Dodge Durango

Turning into a parking lot and the front passenger side tire fell off. 1260. 00.

I have had these parts replaced twice this will be the third time. Dodge has or had a recall. But when I went to have it fixed they told me the recall did not affect this particular vehicle. It's a unsafe vehicle. I am worried because I am a single mom and keep up with all the maintenance on it myself. If it's recalled I believe Dodge should honor all recalls on the vehicles. Thanks.

2003 Dodge Durango. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle front left wheel came off while driving. When the vehicle was put on a flat bed and delivered to the repair shop, he was informed the axle had no way to lubricate the wheel assembly and so when it was dry, it severed itself from the front end.

I was hearing noises coming from the rear of my vehicle. Took it to a local dealer that told us the entire rear end needed to be rebuilt. Apparently there is a defect in the axles that make the pinioned, differentials and axles to go bad. Paid 3500. 00 for the repairs to turn around and have the same thing happen just over a year later.

Vehicle has been experiencing a progression of inaccurate steering, poor turning and suspension performance. Driver and passenger are noticing a "clunking" in the right passenger and driver's side front end. Noted primarily when turning. Steering wheel is also noted to be rotated off center to the clockwise position. Braking is also poor and causes vehicle to pull to passenger side. Most importantly, vehicle is noted to feel unstable and is vibrating while at highway speeds.

When applying the brakes in a panic stop or wet or rough pavement. The pedal goes all the way down to the floor resulting in extended stopping after inspection of the vehicle by the dealer. It was determined that the ab braking pump has malfunction. Part are on national back order.
