While I was merging onto the freeway with my daughter, I accelerated to a speed of 60 mph and it felt like my transmission dropped. My car was revving at 5k rpm’s and would not allow me to go any faster than 45 mph. Luckily no accident occurred as I was able to safely get my child and myself off the freeway. I now have a service appointment scheduled with Dodge to see why this happened. But after ready these other complaints, I now see this is a potential recall! hopefully my warranty covers this repair….

This vehicle will slip in and out 4 wheel drive on its own. This can occur when driving and I’m concerned it will create a dangerous situation, especially if driving at high speeds. When this issue is occurring, making tight turns (parking, neighborhood driving) becomes very dangerous as the wheels become locked and you have to press the accelerator down creating a lot of power and the vehicle becomes dangerously uncontrollable. This is very common while parking, when often pedestrians are present and the vehicle becomes unpredictable due to this issue. This will also occur at a 2 way stop when turning right in front of on-coming traffic. The vehicle will again be unpredictable and can’t turn smoothly impairing traffic coming from behind.

The contact owns a 2020 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the "service shifter" message displayed on the instrument panel. The contact then stated that while driving at 65 mph, several messages appeared on the instrument panel and the steering wheel became difficult to turn. The contact used excessive force to steer the vehicle off to the shoulder of the highway. The contact also stated that the vehicle failed to accelerate while depressing the accelerator pedal. Due to the failure, the vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a defective shifter control module. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired and remained in the possession of the dealer. The failure mileage was 29,980.

While driving, the transmission gave out. There was no prior indication of any issue - no warning light and no different noise. The car wouldn't change gears, which was an extremely dangerous situation in traffic. This transmission is "supposed" to be so good that there isn't a way to even check the transmission oil - there is no dipstick. Dodge claims that the oil doesn't need to be checked, it is that good. Howerver, after the failure and having it towed to the dealer, the report was that the transmission was was black! how is a consumer supposed to be able to check a basic, required fluid with no dipstick? there isn't a way to have any preventative check on the transmission, yet it just fails without warning? there are at least two design flaws that compromise safety - no way to check the transmission oil, and the transmission completely going out without so much as an engine light coming on first. I purchased the car new, and it only has 70,000 miles on it - a transmission should not have black fluid and go out with that little use.

Was on a delivery order with doordash suddenly the truck started bucking back and forth it had felt as if someone was slaming into the back of truck anyway I was on the highway in traffic when this had started leaving me 1st and 2nd gear than final with no gears cause the transmission was burning hot to the touch causing burns on my hand when I tried to check out I was told my truck went into some kind of limp mode cause of transmission control module and shifted solenoid a on the transmission someone needs to hold Dodge responsible for its failures.

When I made it to my home town I went in got gas for my truck and then a few hours later my check engine light came on so I took it to o’reillys and got it checked out they said my second shift wasn’t responding so I took it to Dodge green and they said my transmission went out.

My 2005 Durango all of a sudden has decided to stall while driving . I've bought this vehicle almost 2 years ago, and this is by far the scariest experience I've had in it. The first time it happened was as I was slowing down to stop at a red light on January 17th. Since then it has been stalling one at least 3 to 5 times a week . Something isn't right. I did receive a code from my milewise ins obd reader today, that said p1794 urgency unknown - contact your mechanic . That's one of 3 I got . The other two are p 0700 transmission control system ( mil request ) urgent - have checked ASAP and - p0430 catalyst system efficiency below threshold. Urgent - have checked ASAP this tells me something is seriously wrong and it's going to cost me a fortune. Which for me is impossible to even try to contemplate. I am disabled and my income is not enough. I can not afford to fix this, nor can I afford to buy something else. This is a real problem that I can't afford and it should have been fixed before when it was brought to your attention back in 2005.

Every time I start my 2020 Dodge Durango I hear and feel a hard shift into reverse. No transmission fluid loss, just increasingly louder & feeling if the shift change. ***vehicle started this @ 20,000 miles and only has 32,000 on it now.

This is a dangerous random problem. In fact has now occurred 6 times. Two separate times 08/23/22 & 10/18/22 at a parking lot, while backing up, the gear shifter lit up, locked, and could not be engaged, and it wouldn't move. Both these 2 times it could not be put in drive and after shutting off the engine, it would not restart. The vehicle was blocking access and other vehicles passage for over an hour each time. The other 3 times the vehicle was moving and it just jumped into neutral with no warning, the cluster flashed messages saying to place gear shifter in park and then back to drive and proceed to acquire service. When this happens, it requires you come to a complete stop which can be really put you in harms way. The cluster lights flashed with warning messages in all of the situations. It happened to me twice 10/24/22 after leaving the dealer on the way home, the service engine light illuminated and remained on. The dealer's service rep said multiple codes were detected by the reader. When we brought it in to the dealer the first time 10/20/22, a total of 27 malfunction codes were in the system. How can that be and not be something serious? the powertrain control module was replaced, but when it happened again 2 more times on Monday, less than 15 min. Apart, that didn't fix it. Same thing occurred yesterday that occurred five other times but put us in a dangerous situation. This time we were on a busy four-lane road sr 200 a1a in a 45 mile an hour zone and the vehicle just stopped in the middle of the road lane, locked up we could not move it and it could not be pushed off the road. We were a sitting duck for oncoming traffic and several cars almost failed to stop when approaching us. We have had it less than 3 months and it only has 1700 miles. We are unsafe driving it as this happens randomly and we don't know when or where. If this happens on the interstate or a large bridge we could be killed.

The contact owns a 2005 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the gears inadvertently shifted from awd to 4lock the 4 low. The contact then stated that when attempted to unlock the front driver’s side door, she could hear the gears shifting inadvertently. The contact then stated that the drive shaft made a loud grinding sound. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the autoshop where it was placed on a diagnostic machine and generated code: p0700 and the transfer case motor and possibly the snap ring. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer nor the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 180,000.

When driving on the freeway I went to accelerate the car then begin to accelerate by itself even when I was hitting the brakes it would not slow down. Finally after a few seconds it slowed down. About a week after that started feeling like the transmission was having issues. Now I cannot drive my car. And this happened about three times with the acceleration of the car doing that by itself.

The transmission slips during initial acceleration and causes the driver to dangerously accelerate ahead unexpectedly. This has been occuring since I purchased the vehicle in July of 2021.

Upon approach to a left turn yield, I attempted to accelerate into traffic when the automatic transmission failed into 4th gear ( transmission shift solenoid) and was unable to shift up or down through the gears and was unable to shift into the drive position. There were no other indications of failure prior to this point, I. E no engine or transmission warning lights. If there would have been oncoming traffic at the time of entry into the flow of traffic it may have caused a catastrophic rear end accident due to the vehicle inability to accelerate as usual. Will have the vehicle serviced immediately. This has happened once before with the same vehicle approximately 2 years ago and the transmission shift solenoid was the issue and had been replaced by a local service center at the time.

The contact owns a 2019 Dodge Durango. The contact stated while driving approximately 45 mph, the vehicle started stalling. The contact stated that the vehicle was not accelerating as needed.

The contact depressed the brake pedal and shifted the gear shifter into park(p). The contact stated that on another occasion the gear shifter was shifted into reverse(r) however, transmission inadvertently shifted to neutral(n). The vehicle was taken to a local dealer but was not diagnosed. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 53,000.

Throwing codes of of lost communication of body control module and cylinder 3 misfire.

Between the transmission slipping since 30k, the engine knocking. The check engine flashing. I have changed the coil packs spark plugs, all filters and still nothing, the auto stop/start does not work it flashes boggs out and loses power. The whole steering wheel and truck vibrates and shakes to a point you feel like you’re on an incline going up a roller coaster. I have replaced batteries 2x the windows no longer auto roll down when using fobs even w new batteries and re programming electrical system power randomly fails and all lights go out the. Screen goes out stops working for days on end .

At 40 mph and more vehicle stalls and shake intermittent stalls, stumble. Vehicle do not cut off. But stumble real bad. It's really bad in overdrive. 2 or more people in it.

On Saturday, 04/23/2022, the Dodge Durango ran fine. I was able to back out of my driveway without incident around 12:00 pm and go to walmart. I drove to the sheetz gas station from walmart and topped off the fuel tank because we wanted to take a family trip during the weekend. At 12:40 pm, I arrived back home, turned off the engine, and went inside my house to pick up my son. We entered the vehicle around 12:50 pm. I put my seatbelt on, put my foot on the brake pedal, and pushed the engine start button. Then I placed the vehicle in reverse, released the parking brake, and slowly backed my foot off the brake pedal. This time around, the vehicle did not drive backward normally like it's supposed to, but hesitated like it didn't have any power (NHTSA complaint 11461953). The engine hesitated several times, the rpms dipped under 500 more than once, and then when I almost got to the street, the engine died, and the vehicle stalled. The transmission placed itself into the park position (automatic park), and I could hear and feel the driveline clunk when the parking pawl locked the transmission. The "r" led started flashing on the gear shifter. I put my foot on the brake, and moved the lever from the "r" to the "n" position. The "n" position was still flashing, indicating that the vehicle is not really in "n". Then I pushed the engine start button to completely turn off the vehicle as the "run" led was flashing, but instead, the engine turned back on. Without taking the foot off the brake pedal I moved the shift lever from "n" to "r" and heard a loud clunk and even felt it. It sounded and felt like there was a lot of pressure on the parkin pawl and it got barely released. I am concerned that the vehicle stalling might have damaged the parking pawl somehow. I don't feel safe driving this vehicle. This is very difficult to reproduce as the vehicle exhibits this behaviour randomly, however I am concerned for my safety and my family's safety while traveling in this vehicle.

On Friday, 04/22/2022, at 5:30 pm, I remote-started the vehicle, and let it run for 5 minutes, then my wife and I entered the vehicle. I put my foot on the brake pedal, pushed the engine start button to unlock all vehicle functions, and put my seatbelt on. I placed the vehicle in reverse. Then I released the parking brake and backed off the brake pedal. My driveway is slightly sloped downwards towards the garage doors, around three degrees and around five degrees or less where it connects to the street. This vehicle has enough power to back out of my driveway without pushing the gas pedal while in reverse. However, the Dodge Durango in this report barely moved, then stopped, so I gave it a bit more gas. The engine kept hesitating with the rpm needle going under the 500 rpm mark several times. I managed to back it to the end of the driveway. However, the vehicle was struggling. I then put in drive and moved forward. It moved forward without any issue. I pulled up to the garage door and entirely stopped. With the foot on the brake pedal, I placed the vehicle back in reverse, and it struggled again like it didn't have any power. The rpms dipped under 500 several times until I managed to back the vehicle out into the street. I then put it in drive, and the vehicle ran fine and didn't repeat this behavior until the next day.

One morning I was taking my 9-year-old daughter to school and our truck just stalled while I was driving. Thank allah that there was no heavy traffic and no one got hurt. That incident has my daughter scared. I took it to the mechanic they read the diagnostic fixed what codes came up and still my truck is not operating properly. The truck still stalls while driving the mechanic has informed me. I have had my iac, map sensor, tps, ignition coil, distributor, and canister purge valve replaced.

1. The air bag light come on & off randomly. The air bag has never been deployed. 2. The transmission misfires, I don't know if it has to do with the fuel pump relay. I've replaced almost the entire transmission and still does the same thing.

2019 didge Durango. Purchased used with c. 22k miles on the clock. Have driven c2. 5k miles and the following has happened 3 times. When accelerating the car seems to lose power momentarily and then gets stuck in third gear. Cannot shift up or down. After parking and restarting the engine the issue is resolved but the check engine light comes on. Goes off sometimes after a few hours, sometimes after 1 or 2 days.

While at speed, the fcw light goes off and the vehicle looses the ability to accelerate. I usually have to pull over, shut down the vehicle, and restart it to continue. I have had all of the recalls completed as soon as possible, and the last one was completed several years ago. Similar things happened previously with this car but seemed to be fixed by recalls. This has only started happening again recently, say within the last month or two, and is happening with greater frequency.

Several repairs for sensor labor: check and advise the check engine light is on and the vehicle wants to stall when accelerating. Vehicle loses engine power but has not stalled completely (low/reverse solenoid circuit. Test and replaced transmission solenoid assembly; cost: $819. 65, prior to that $1200. 00, $546. 00. I'm unemployed and the truck costing more repairs. The plastic on radiator has cracked all the way cross and leaks coolant, stop radiator leak encourage by dealership and to seal leak or replace radiator (it's upsetting and its cost me thousands of dollars, my last two SUV was Dodge Durango and I love them but this one has given the most problems and cost me financially. Plus, when I purchased the dealership replace windshield because of flaw in glass and it wasn't repaired correctly and oakland county sheriff said my truck was dangerous, but you said it was fine. Plus, the wrapped chrome grill has been replaced twice because it bubbles up. Information listed at your dealerships: purchased at milosch's palace Chrysler Jeep Dodge (work performed) 3800 s.

3 malfunctions within a month time frame. The car will start and run normally. Then it will suddenly come to a halt because the engine will continue to run but the transmission knob will not be able to move, and the entire electrical panel lights up. Repeated attempts to use the push button start to unlock the transmission knob and be able to start car fail. This has happened 2 of the 3 times on major roadways in traffic. Pd was called for last incident. The car has been to the dealer 3 times, dealer is unable to replicate problem and unable to pull codes from computer every single time. Vehicle has been inspected by dealer every single time. No warning lights or lamp or messages have appeared prior to this issue. The last incident - as described on major roadway - my children were in vehicle. This is a complete and dangerous issue, still not being addressed. The car had come to a light, stopped, the auto engine had kicked in, and when time to move, the entire panel lit up and transmission knob locked once again.

While driving 4 lo light comes on and trys 2 engage into 4lo while driving. Read and researched and seems 2 b a big issue wit this.

The vehicle is shifting itself into 4wd hi, and sometimes even lo, while being driven - even at highway speed, which causes a sudden and dramatic drop in speed. It also makes turning the vehicle very difficult. This is dangerous and occurs regularly. There are many online forums discussing this exact issue with 2044/2005 Durango's, but no one seems to have a solution. . Read more...

Very common cylinder 2 misfire. Replaced all spark plugs and the cylinder two ignition coil. Replaced upper and lower intake gasket seals, replaced the fuel injector. Still having issues with misfire. Wiring is all correct - pumps and valves are right. It must be a broken head and this is a known issue with previous years of Chrysler engines that have had recalls. This is an expensive fix and dangerous if not fixed. It is not fair to the consumer that Chrysler has still yet to fix such issues after prior years have been recalled, and yet they don’t recall the 2016 pentastar 3. 6l. I am requesting this be looked into and recalled for I am one of many who are encountering this serious issue that will inevitably cause wrecks.

We were entering a highway from an on ramp and the car would not accelerate. We were almost hit from behind because of it. We took the car in to have it looked at and it is a faulty tipm "totally integrated power module". There were issues with previous years models of Dodge Durangos with the same issue and I believe that recall should extend to newer years. From what I researched: the tipm lawsuit alleges Chrysler sold and leased model year 2011-2013 Dodge Durango and Jeep grand cherokee suvs equipped with defective "totally integrated power modules, which allegedly cause a variety of electrical problems including non-starting, stalling and fuel pump problems. The plaintiffs claim Dodge and Jeep owners have spent a small fortune on unneeded repairs for batteries, fuel pumps and other car parts, all while the real trouble was caused by defective tipms.
