Suspension, front, control arm, upper ball jointDec 21, 2004
ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES AND PICKUP TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE (4X4), IF MOISTURE LEAKS INTO THE FRONT SUSPENSION UPPER BALL JOINT, EVACUATION OF THE LUBRICANT AND CORROSION OF THE JOINT MAY CAUSE THE JOINT TO WEAR OVER AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. THIS COULD CAUSE A CLUNKING NOISE IN THE FRONT SUSPENSION, WHICH MAY NOT ALWAYS BE HEARD BY THE VEHICLE OCCUPANTS.
EXCESSIVE WEAR IN THE UPPER BALL JOINT MAY ALLOW IT TO SEPARATE, WHICH COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FRONT SUSPENSION UPPER BALL JOINTS. THIS SAFETY IMPROVEMENT CAMPAIGN BEGAN ON DECEMBER 21, 2004. OWNERS CAN CONTACT DAIMLERCHRYSLER AT 1-800-853-1403.

AROUND 30,000 MILES, NOTICED INNER TREADS OF FRONT TIRES WERE GETTING LOW. HAD ALIGNMENT DONE AROUND 20,000 MILES AND THEY SAID IT WASN'T NECCESSARY. WENT FOR ANOTHER ALIGNMENT AT 44,000 BECAUSE INNER TREADS WERE NOW BALD. REPLACED TIRES AND HAD ALIGNMENT DONE. PROBLEM, RIGHT BALL JOINT IS JUST ABOUT HANGING OFF. BOOT COVER IS FULLY STRETCHED. MECHANIC CAN'T DO ALIGNMENT. DODGE SAYS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR (OUT OF WARRANTY). I DON'T THINK SO, NOTICED ALIGNMENT PROBLEM FROM START. SEEMS DODGE FEELS PULLING IS NORMAL WHEN DRIVING.*AK

Electrical system, Dec 3, 2001, fire
I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND WITHOUT ANY WARNING THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE UNDER THE HOOD. I LOST STEERING AND BRAKES. WAS ABLE TO RUN VEHICLE INTO CURB AND JUST GOT OUT BEFORE THINGS STARTED BLOWING UP. THE VEHICLE WAS COMPLETLY DISTROYED. I REPORTED THE INCIDENT TO MY INSURANCE AND A FEW DAYS LATER I WAS CONTACTED BY A INVISTAGATOR FROM DAIMLER CHRYSLER WHO STATED THAT THEY WANTED TO REPLACE MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THE FIRE WAS THERE FAULT. THIS STATEMENT LEAD ME TO BELEAVE DAIMLER CHRYSLER KNOWS ABOUT A PROBLEM AND WANT TO KEEP IT VERY QUITE. I WAS TOLD IF I TALK TO ANY ONE THE DEAL WOULD BE OFF. AS OF NOW I STILL DO NOT HAVE MY REPLACEMENT VEHICLE. DAIMLER CHRYSLER IS INSISTING I TAKE A VEHICLE OF LESSER VALUE THAT MY DURANGO. ANY INFORMATION REGUARDING THIS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRICIATED. I FEEL LIKE I AM AT THE MERCY OF A VERY POWERFUL CORPORATION.*AK
Tires, Nov 27, 2001
TRAVELING WEST ON I-80, APPROX. 10 MILES FROM SHARON PA. THE LEFT FRONT TIRE BLEW UP AND SHREDDED. THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF AIR PRESSURE LOSS (IE; PULLING) PRIOR TO THE BLOWOUT AND UNWRAVELING OF THE TIRE. I HAD ALL I COULD DO TO MAINTAIN CONTROL AND GET TO THE RIGHT SIDE BERM. THERE WERE FIVE OF US IN THE VEHICLE. MY ISSUE IS WITH THE TIRE MANUFACTURER, NOT CHRYSLER CORP. I WAS ADVISED BY THE DODGE DEALER I DID NOT PURCHASE THE EXTENDED TIRE WARRANTY. AS AN OWNER OF A LARGE INDEPENDENT AUTOMOTIVE SERVICE REPAIR AND COLLISION SHOP, WE EXAMINED THE TIRE CLOSELY. WE NOTED A AN OBJECT APRX. 1/4" DIAMETER TAPERING TO A RELATIVE POINT THAT PUNCTURED THE TREAD OF THE TIRE. IT TURNED OUT TO BE A DRIED SMALL ANIMAL BONE. A HUNTER/FRIEND ADVISED ME IT APPEARS TO BE A SMALL BONE FROM A BIRD. WE HAVE SEEN MANY PUNCTURES, BLOWOUTS AT CITY AND HI-WAY SPEEDS, BUT NEVER A TIRE "UNWRAVELED" LIKE THIS. IT LOOKS VERY MUCH LIKE ALL THE PICTURES INVOLVING THE FIRESTONE/FORD FIASCO. I AM ONLY LOOKING FOR ANSWERS. I NOW HAVE RESERVATIONS IN GENERAL ABOUT THE TIRES. I WAS FORTUNATE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL AND AVOID SWAYING INTO A SEMI NEXT TO ME. ANY ADVIDE WILL BE APPRECIATED. OUR GY VENDOR HAS OFFERED TO GIVE IT TO GY FOR THEIR ANALYSIS. THANK YOU. RICHARD A. SACHA. *AK (TIRESIZE: 31X10.5 15)

THERE WAS NO WARNING, OIL PRESSURE LIGHT JUST CAME ON AND WE LOST PRESSURE. THEN THERE WAS A KNOCKING NOISE UNDER THE HOOD. WE HAD IT TOWED TO HERB GORDON DODGE, WHICH SAID THE ENGINE WAS A TOTAL LOSS. I HAD TO DRIVE IT HOMEAND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I CALLED FITZGERALD TO SEE IF I WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THEY SAID BRING IT IN, SO I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER. THEY SAID THE WARRRANTY WOULDN'T COVER IT BECAUSE I COULD NOT PRODUCE 15 MAINTENANCE RECEIPTS. I HAD A FULL SERVICE ENGINE FLUSH AT 32,727 MILES. THEY DID NOT CARE, BUT SAID THEY COULD GIVE ME A NEW ENGINE AT $6000 OR A PATCHUP AT $4200. THE SERVICE MANAGER ALSO OFFERED TO PUT ME IN CONTACT WITH A COMPANY THAT WILL FINANCE ENGINES.*AK
Service brakes, Hydraulic, Nov 1, 2001, crash
MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING OUR CAR AND WAS APPROACHING A RED LIGHT,AT 20 MILES PER HOUR. AS THE LIGHT CHANGED TO RED HE PRESSED DOWN ON THE BRAKES AND IT DID NOT SLOW DOWN ANY, HE PROCEEDED TO GO THROUGH THE LIGHT APPLYING MORE PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES WHICH FAILED HIM. HE LEFT TIRE MARKS ON THE ROAD FOR ABOUT 37 FT AND ENDED UP HITTING A VEHICLE AND IN THE END THERE WERE 4 VEHICLES TOTAL. I HAVE RESEARCHED ON LINE AND HAVE FOUND OUT THAT THERE HAVE BEEN PROBLEMS WITH THE REAR BRAKES ON DODGE DURANGO'S THAT WERE MADE IN 1999. OUR DURANGO IS A 2000 BUT WAS MANUFACTURED IN DECEMBER 1999. WE FEEL THAT IN LIGHT OF THIS INFO, WE SHOULD HAVE RECIEVED SOME FORM OF RECALL LETTER FROM THE DEALERS WHICH WE HAVE NOT AS YET. WE ARE NOT SURE OF THE TOTAL COST OF THE ACCIDENT AS YET, SO THE FIGURES ARE JUST QUOTES SO FAR. *AK

VEHICLE FAILS TO ENGAGE INTO GEARS PROPERLY WHILE IDLING AT STOP SIGNS OR LIGHTS. THIS CAUSES VEHICLE TO STALL . PROBLEM CAN HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. HAD BEEN TO DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS TIMES. HAD TRANSMISSION REPLACED, BUT PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. MECHANIC HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF CAUSE OF PROBLEM. *AK
Service brakes, Hydraulic, Oct 2, 2001
WARPED FRONT BRAKE ROTORS ARE CAUSING SEVERE VIBRATION IN THE BRAKE PEDAL. DEALER DOES NOT RECOMEND RESURFACING BECAUSE THERE IS INSUFFICIENT MATERIAL AND THINNING THE ROTORS WILL COMPOUND THE PROBLEM. DEALER SAYS REPLACEMENT PARTS WILL LAST JUST AS LONG BASED ON DRIVING HABITS. NAPA SELLS ROTORS WITH A LIFETIME WARRANTY. THE ROTORS FROM THE FACTORY ARE A SAFETY PROBLEM THAT DODGE IS PASSING OFF ON THE CUSTOMER. NO WELL MAINTAINED VEHICLE SHOULD NEED TO HAVE NEW ROTORS INSTALLED AT JUST OVER 20,000 MILES.
Power train, Oct 1, 2001
I HAD A LOT OF CHATTERING AND GRINDING NOISES IN BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR DIFFERENTIAL. THE DEALER CHECKED THE PROBLEM AND FOUND OUT THAT THE DIFFERENTIAL FLUID NEEDED TO BE CHANGED DUE TO THE VISCOSITY BEING WEAK AND RECOMMENDED THAT IT BE CHANGED AND ADDITIVE BE DONE. UPON FINDING THIS OUT THEY ALSO SAID THAT THIS FLUID WOULD HAVE TO BE CHANGED EVERY 30,000 MILES. MY COST FOR THIS PROBLEM WAS $400.00. IT WAS NOT SPECIFIED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL THAT THIS HAD TO BE DONE AT ALL.*AK
Vehicle speed control, Sep 27, 2001
I WAS DRIVING MY 2000 DODGE DURANGO ON THE FREEWAY AT APPROX. 70MPH. SUDDENLY, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED TO FULL THROTTLE ON ITS OWN. THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS NOT ENGAGED. MY FOOT WAS OFF THE GAS PEDAL AND THE CAR KEPT ACCELERATING. I TAPPED THE GAS PEDAL WITH MY FOOT TO ATTEMPT TO RAISE IT WITH NO EFFECT. I DOWN SHIFTED TO SECOND GEAR WITH NO EFFECT. I ENGAGED AND DISENGAGED THE CRUISE CONTROL WITH NO EFFECT. THE ONLY WAY I COULD PREVENT THE CAR FROM CONTINUING TO ACCELERATE WAS TO BRAKE AND RELEASE WHILE I CROSSED THREE LANES OF TRAFFIC. AT NO TIME DID I HAVE MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL. AS I EXITED THE FREEWAY IT BECAME INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL THE CAR WHILE FIGHTING THE ENGINE POWER WITH THE BRAKE PRESSURE. I SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WE COULD HAVE EASILY HAD A COLLISION AND WE ARE FORTUNATE NO ONE WAS HURT AS A RESULT OF THIS VERY SERIOUS SAFETY DEFECT. *AK
