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.

THERE ARE COMPLAINTS ALL OVER THE INTERNET. AND THAT IS ONLY PEOPLE WHO TAKE THE TIME TO COMPLAIN. I ALSO HAVE A DODGE CONVERSION VAN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. MY FRIEND HAS A DODGE VAN ALSO AND HIS LOCKS ARE BROKEN TOO. *TR

2000 DODGE DURANGO, WHEN MY CAR HAD 70,000 MILES ON IT, THERE WAS A RECALL OF THE BALL JOINTS. MY DURANGO NOW HAS 100,000+ MILES AND IT IS MAKING THE SAME POPPING NOISE IN THE FRONT END. MY MECHANIC SAYS THAT IT NEEDS NEW BALL JOINTS AGAIN. I FEEL DODGE REPLACED THE BALL JOINTS WITH THE SAME DEFECTIVE PARTS AS THE ORIGINAL PARTS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. WHEN I CONTACTED DODGE I WAS TOLD VIA E-MAIL THAT WARRANTY WAS ONLY UNTIL 10 YEARS OR 100,000 MILES. THEY DID NOT COUNT ON OWNERS KEEPING THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT I FEEL DODGE SHOULD STAND BEHIND. *JB

ON MY DODGE DURANGO. I HAVE AROUND 60,000 MILES ON IT. I TAKE REALLY GOOD CARE OF MY CAR. MY EXISTING PROBLEM IS MY PASSENGER SIDE ELECTRICAL LOCK. I HAVE TO MANUALLY OPEN IT EVERY TIME, LOCK DOES NOT WORK AND MY BACK RIGHT HAND WINDOW DOES NOT OPEN. I HAD TO REPLACE THE LOCK ON MY PASSENGER SIDE ONCE AT THE DEALERSHIP, IT WORKED FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS THEN WENT OUT AGAIN, PLUS AS THEY WERE FIXING THE PROBLEM THEY LEFT SCREW DRIVER PRINTS ON MY DOOR, WHICH REALLY UPSET ME. *JB

Engine and engine cooling, Aug 3, 2007
I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW. I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO DRIVES IT AND I HAVE USED SYNTHETIC OIL THE ENTIRE TIME. I HAVE ALWAYS TAKEN CARE OF IT. I WAS ON THE OFF RAMP OF I-85 WHEN IT JUST STOPPED. IT WAS SMOKING AND THEN THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON. I GOT OUT OF THE CAR BECAUSE IT WAS IN A DANGEROUS PLACE ON THE OFF RAMP AND OIL WAS SPILLING OUT OF THE BOTTOM. WE HAD TO GET THE CAR TOWED. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT IT HAD TWO CRACKED HEADS. IF I HAD BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN THIS HAPPENED I WOULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. I AM EXTREMELY UPSET ABOUT THIS AND I HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER AND REGISTERED A COMPLAINT BECAUSE I HAVE FOUND OUT ABOUT ALL THE SERIOUS PROBLEMS WITH THE 2.7 LITER ENGINE. CHRYSLER SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS ENGINE OR THEY WOULD HAVE ISSUED A RECALL. EVERY PARTS PERSON, MECHANIC, DEALERSHIP, ETC. THAT I HAVE TALKED TO HAVE MENTIONED THE PROBLEMS WITH THIS ENGINE. IT SEEMS AS IF EVERYONE KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM BUT CHRYSLER. THEY ASKED IF I HAD ALL THE RECORDS FROM EVERY TIME THAT I HAVE EVER HAD THE OIL CHANGED. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING I WOULD THINK ABOUT KEEPING. I DON'T THINK THEY WOULD HAVE DONE ANYTHING EVEN IF I HAD THE RECORDS. THEY JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE I DIDN'T HAVE ANY PROOF. THIS IS GOING TO BE VERY COSTLY TO GET FIXED AND IF I PUT THE SAME KIND OF ENGINE IN, I AM LOOKING AT THE SAME PROBLEMS. IT SEEMS AT THIS POINT THAT I MAY HAVE TO JUST TRASH THE CAR AND LOSE WHATEVER WORTH IT HAD LEFT IN IT. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER DODGE CAR BECAUSE CHRYSLER DOES NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR MISTAKES. SOMEBODY NEEDS TO INVESTIGATE THIS SITUATION IN DEPTH. A LOT OF INNOCENT PEOPLE ARE BEING PUT IN AN EXTREMELY DIFFICULT FINANCIAL POSITION BECAUSE OF CHRYSLER. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT REALLY BAD IN ONE OF THESE CARS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLOW DOWN AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND ABS LIGHTS CAME ON. THINKING THE SYSTEM NEEDED TO BLEED I HAD THAT DONE. I DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME , AND FOUND IT VERY DIFFICULT TO STOP WHEN NEEDED. I HAD THE FOLLOWING PARTS REPLACED: MASTER CYLNDER, BRAKE POWER BOOSTER, ABS SYSTEM, REAR WHEEL CYLINDERS ,AND HAD THE LINES FLUSHED. I STILL HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO BRAKES! THERE WAS NO BRAKE PRESSURE AT ALL. THE PEDAL WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RESISTANCE. TOOK TRUCK TO MECHANIC, AND THEY COULD NOT FIND THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. SO IT STILL SAT WITH NO BRAKES. *AK

MAKE: DODGE MODEL: DURANGO YEAR: 2000, I ALWAYS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE DURANGO SINCE ABOUT 13,000, (NOW HAVE 93,000. REPLACEMENT OF BALL JOINTS, BRAKE CALIPERS, AND CONTINUOUS CHECKS FOR CLICKING AND VIBRATION FEELING IN THE STEERING COLUMN. THIS HAS NOT BEEN RIGHT FROM THE START. I BELIEVE THERE IS SOMETHING DEFECTIVE WITH THE STEERING AND FRONT END. EACH TIME I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE THEY CAN NEVER DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE ENJOYED THE DURANGO, EXCEPT FOR THESE FRONT END PROBLEMS. THE STEERING MAKES NOISES AND HAS A FUNNY RESPONSE TO THE TURNING PROCESS. COULD YOU PLEASE REVIEW CLOSER. *AK
