Leaving a friends house my �17 dd with 32k miles stalled out while I was in a turn lane on a busy street just at an intersection leading to the highway. The dash lit up with several likes and the only light I could catch was �power steering issue car will cut off soon� the car was still in the �run� position and turning to �off� or �acc� was not engaging. I could not move or push the vehicle as engage the neutral position was not happening. After calling the tow truck and sitting for about an hour (scared I'd get him by oncoming traffic) I looked in the manual and online to see how to manually engage the neutral position. After a few failed attempts I was able to engage it and move it safely from the street. Tow truck arrived an hour later and now no buttons worked. He had to use the manual key to unlock doors and the dash was lighting up with several warnings. Going too fast to see or describe. Appt is scheduled for 5/28 previously scheduled because two days prior to this event gas gauge indicated almost empty. Went to fill up and was only able to fill 7. 7 gallons before gas pump indicated the car was full. After I stopped pumping the needle only read half a tank but would not let me continue to fuel as it indicated it was already full.
I downloaded and successfully installed a recommended software update to my 2017 Dodge Durango this past summer. Since then I have noticed that I have difficulty shutting off the vehicle because something has changed in the timing of the the automatic shut-off and when I turn it off. I have occasionally started to leave the vehicle and found that I had not turned it off, but back on. This is an aggravation all by itself, but the reason for my real complaint was not discovered until I hooked up my trailer. I found that I cannot turn off or disable my park assist. When there is a near object such as a trailer, when I try to back up, the brakes lock on. I discovered this while in the middle of the road on a blind corner trying to back into a driveway. I live in the country so I had to go a mile down the road in order to find a place that I could u-turn. I then had to detach and manually park my trailer. I can tell you that was a little scary not being able to back into the driveway to get out of harms way. Oh, the best part, even though the software problem was caused by Dodge software engineers, I have to pay to get it fixed. The soonest appointment is 2 weeks from now. Between now and then I have to take a trip to chicago and park where I know I will have to park in tight spaces.
