1 Brake Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings problem

Failure Date: 08/18/2011

2005 Dodge Durango. In 2007 tierod end on passenger side broke while going down the raod. Luckily there was not an accident and the dealer fixed it for free. In August 2011 we discovered that the brake line was laying on the front axle on the drivers side. This caused the brake line to rub in two and caused brake failure resulting in a crash (which is how the problem as discovered). The towtruck driver also said he picked up a Durango that had the upper and lower ball joint broken causing an accident. The front end of the 2005 Dodge Durango is apprently very poorly designed.
