Differential Unit problems of the 2006 Dodge Durango

With our 2006 Dodge Durango, there is a shake of the transmission between 40-50 miles an hour. We first took the truck in to the Chrysler dealership with this problem and a leak they replaced the front end differential. After this there have been 3 transmission leaks that they have repaired. The truck continues to have the same shaking so we took it to another Chrysler dealership. With this dealership, they went on a test drive with us and were able to recognize the shaking. It is noted that this is a problem with our vehicle and when calling the Chrysler star center they say that this is the way the truck is designed and there is no current fix for the problem! we were told by the Chrysler district manager that we need to wait for Chrysler to make a fix for the problem. They say that the shaking will not cause any problems, but as I said earlier, we have had multiple transmission leaks. When we were contacted about extending our warranty, we were denied due to there being a claim against Chrysler. Because of the shaking of the truck, we are unable to pull our travel trailer that is the main purpose of this vehicle. When we did drive the truck pulling the trailer that is much less than the towing capacity of the vehicle, it shakes bad enough to shake cups out of the holders. We now have to use someone else's vehicle to pull our camper.

I have a 2006 Dodge Durango my incident happened on February the 8th 2008 my mother was driving my vehicle back from a funeral with my 88 year old grandmother they heard a loud sound that seemed to be something dragging beneath the Durango. The vehicle immediately lost it's power and locked up. Drive shaft had fallen off the Durango and was lying on the pavement. The dealership has taken a month to fix this vehicle and it still isn't working. Last Friday March 7th of 2008 I was told my vehicle was ready to be picked up by the dealership. Since I never was given a rental my husband and I had to drive two hours to go and pick up the Durango. Once we got the Durango it was after 5:30 which the service department was closing. My husband and I ventured home he followed behind to make sure that I had no trouble with the Durango. He noticed about 40 minutes after we had been driving that fluid was spewing out the rear-end of my Durango and the passenger back tire was bouncing and wobbling uncontrollably. He immediately pulled me over and took over the driving of my vehicle while I drove his truck. I called the dealership first thing in the morning to tell them what was happening with the Durango. They asked that I drive the vehicle back even though it wasn't safe to drive period. Once they realized that I wasn't going to make this drive they tried to get me to tow my vehicle to the closest dealership to me knowing that my warranty wouldn't pay anyone else since they had already started and were paid $2,600. 00 to fix a vehicle that still wasn't running. In other words" I " the customer would get stuck with the bill. After arguing with them an entire morning including the warranty people and the dealership that was closest to my home. The dealership two hours away finally agreed to take my vehicle back. A tow truck had to be called again and drive two hours to come and get the Durango.
