Three problems related to radiator have been reported for the 2012 Dodge Durango. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2012 Dodge Durango based on all problems reported for the 2012 Durango.
Radiator catastrophically failed at 119200 miles while driving. Upon inspection it was determined that the whole drivers side of the radiator rib failed where the metal meets the plastic housing resulting in a massive coolant leak.
Twice in three years time the upper radiator hose has been destroyed by the closest pulley on the engine. When installed correctly there is less than 1 inch of clearance between the hose and pulley. This seems like a very serious design flaw on the hemi 5. 7.
I have had my vehicle for a little less than two years. And my radiator has had a hole in it. And I have several major mechanical issues that are not a part of regular scheduled maintenance.
