Front Seat Heater/cooler Problems of Dodge Durango

I purchased my vehicle 10/2019. Since then I have taken to repair shop for vehicle stalls when coming to a stop or at a stop, let along when slowing for a stop. Then rpm's drop! I have almost been rear ended multiple times due to this, with my children and grandchildren in car!!! the shop I've taken to can not find out why this is happening. Granted we tried replacing hoses, valve gaskets tune up. I feel there should be a recall to find and fix this before a serious injury happens. This has also happened as I was driving and I had to put in neutral to restart. The streets and roads I have to travel are usually always busy. Also the vehicle when stopping the front driver and passenger seats slide back and forth, they are not what I would call safe. . . For I believe the rules ares to check mirrors, adjust seating, wear seat belts to ensure that you will be driving safely. I could be wrong but I'm pretty positive. Needs fixing now!! the other issue is the hoses. . . They seem to fall off and I take into shop just to hear its the hose again. Not counting numerous other issues like windows not rolling down some days, rear heater doesn't work unless the front heater is off. I've always been a Dodge fan but I think with all these issues with this vehicle I'll be checking out out Dodge and moving to someone that actually doesn't have over 6 recalls on the vehicles and multiple other complaints like Dodge has had and that I've just read.

On or about November 14, 2002, raymond nottnagel was severely burned by a seat heater in the driver's seat of a 2002 Dodge Durango 4x4 r/t, VIN: 1b4-hs78z72f-139578. Mr. Nottnagel is a paraplegic. He did not initially feel the burn occuring. The 3rd degree burn required mr. Nottnagel to spend the better part of 5 months on his stomach, and then he gradually returned to being able to sit for limited periods of time with the correct padding. The seat heater apparently did not turn off after reaching a normal temperature and reached a sufficient temperature to cause a 3rd degree burn. The case is now in litigation in sacramento superior court.
