Fuel/propulsion system, Nov 5, 2014
MY DURANGO STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS STARTING. THE STARTER WOULD CONTINUE BUT THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T START. THIS STARTED AROUND OCTOBER 1ST, 2014. AFTER A COUPLE OF WEEKS THE PROBLEM STARTED GETTING WORSE AND THEN AFTER STARTING IT WOULD SHUT OFF. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS AT THIS THE VEHICLE WOULD RUN. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN GETTING WORSE EVERY DAY. ON 11-3-14 I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE TIPM. I CALLED MY DODGE DEALER AND WAS ADVISED THAT THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO FOR ME AT THIS TIME AS THE PARTS DON'T EXIST. I THEN CALLED THE CHRYSLER GROUP RECALL ASSISTANCE CENTER. THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO ANOTHER DEALER OR TO AN INDEPENDENT DEALER AND HAVE IT FIXED AT MY OWN EXPENSE. I COULD SEND THEM THE RECEIPTS TO BE REIMBURSED. I AGAIN CALLED MY DODGE DEALER WHO SAID THAT THEY COULD REPLACE THE TIPM, WHICH WOULD COST OVER $1,000 OUT OF MY POCKET. THAT WAS THE ONLY RECOURSE THEY HAD FOR THE TIME BEING. I DON'T THINK THAT IT IS FAIR AT ALL THAT CHRYSLER WANTS ME TO PAY OVER $1,000 OUT OF MY OWN POCKET TO FIX THEIR PROBLEM AND WAIT TO BE REIMBURSED, WHICH WILL TAKE OVER 60 DAYS OR EVEN AT ALL. *TR
Electrical system, Nov 5, 2014
MY CAR WOULD NOT START ON SEVERAL INSTANCES. MANY TIMES IT TRIED TO STALL WHEN DRIVING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THE SAID THE TIPM WAS FAILING AND INSTALLED A FUEL PUMP OVERLAY WIRING. I DID MY RESEARCH AND FOUND 100S OF OTHER CUSTOMERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINTS, YET NO RECALL WAS ISSUED. I HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS. THERE IS NOW A RECALL P54 IN WHICH THEY ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM, BUT SAY NOT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE AND THEY WILL NOT ISSUE REIMBURSEMENT FOR REPAIRS ALREADY MADE. I AM CERTAIN THAT THERE ARE MORE ISSUES WITH THE ELECTRICAL, SINCE MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS GO OFF WITHOUT RAIN, WHEN IT IS COLD OUTSIDE. WHY IS CHRYSLER REFUSING TO MAKE THESE REPAIRS AND WHAT CAN BE DONE TO MAKE THEM PAY FOR REPAIRS ALREADY MADE AND ACTUALLY FIX THE PROBLEMS? *TR

WANT TO FILE A COMPLAINT REGARDING DODGE RECALL NOTICE P54/NHTSA 14V-530. TIPM FUEL PUMP RELAY. DODGE HAS ADVISED US OF SEVERITY OF THIS RECALL ISSUE AND THE FACT THAT OUR VEHICLE COULD LOSE POWER WITHOUT ANY ADVANCE WARNING. THEY THEN GO ON TO SAY THAT THEY CURRENTLY DO NOT HAVE ANY PARTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM. WHEN I CALLED MY DEALER THE SERVICE ADVISOR INDICATED IT COULD BE UP TO A YEAR BEFORE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE! WE BASICALLY HAVE A $40K VEHICLE THAT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THIS IS THE THIRD RECALL WHERE WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF A POTENTIALLY LETHAL PROBLEM ONLY TO HAVE OUR DEALER SAY THEY CANNOT GET PARTS TO FIX. WHERE IS THE ACCOUNTABILITY FROM DODGE? *TR
Electrical system, Fuel/propulsion system, Nov 4, 2014
MY CAR STARTED HAVING TROUBLE TURNING ON AND STAYING ON. EVENTUALLY, AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS IT WOULD TURN ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER PLANET DODGE (WORSE SERVICE EVER) TO BE TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE IS UNDER THE RECALL FOR THE FUEL RELAY PUMP (TIPM). THE PART IS BEING MANUFACTURED BY CHRYSLER WHICH THEY ARE PLANNING TO FIX IT BY ADDING A PART BUT NOT REPLACING THE TIPM. IN THE RECALL IT SAYS THE PART REQUIRED IS NOT AVAILABLE YET. UPSET I CONTACTED CHRYSLER TO BE TOLD TO EITHER DRIVE THE VEHICLE LIKE THAT WHICH CAN SHUT OFF AND CAUSE A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING OR PAY $1,000 TO REPLACE THE TIPM. NOW, WHAT UPSETS ME IS THAT THEY DO NOT CARE AT ALL WHETHER YOU DRIVE THE CAR OR NOT AND/OR IF YOU CRASH AND TO BE REIMBURSED CHRYSLER HAS TO CHANGED THE TIPM (WHICH THEY WON'T) AND SINCE THEY WON'T WE WILL NOT BE REIMBURSED. IT IS FRUSTRATING HOW THEY SO NICELY TELL YOU TO DRIVE THE CAR EVEN THOUGH THEY KNOW IT CAN SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. DON'T FALL FOR THE "REFUND" TALK, THEY WILL NOT REFUND IT!!!! *TR

OVER THE PAST 2 WEEKS OUR DURANGO HAS HAD ISSUES WITH STARTING. WHEN USING THE PUSH START BUTTON THE ENGINE WILL CRANK OVER MULTIPLE TIMES AND NEVER START. SOMETIMES VEHICLE WILL START AND OTHER TIMES IT CAN TAKE OVER 20 ATTEMPTS TO START. IN ONE INCIDENT IT TOOK 34 TIME TO START AND EVEN CAUSE BLACK SMOKE TO COME UP FROM UNDER THE HOOD. FROM RESEARCH WITH CHRYSLER CORPORATE AND THE LOCAL DEALER, THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP FOR AN ASSESSMENT AND WE WERE TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM HAD TO DO WITH THE TIPM/FUEL RELAY SYSTEM. WE WERE TOLD THEY COULD NOT FIX IT BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T HAVE PARTS TO REMEDY THE ISSUE AND THAT THEY HADN'T RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM CHRYSLER CORPORATE. FROM MY RESEARCH IT APPEARS THE RECALL NUMBER IS P54. YESTERDAY, ON 10/28/2014 WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR ROAD AT 50MPH THE VEHICLE WITH TWO CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT COMPLETELY STALLED AND DIED. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND WE ARE BLESSED WE WEREN'T IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT OR KILLED. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER CORPORATE AND LOCAL DEALER IMMEDIATELY AND AGAIN WAS TOLD THEY COULD DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. NOT A LOANER VEHICLE, NOT REPLACEMENT OF PART AT FULL COST.. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE AND WHEN YOU PUT MY CHILDREN'S LIVES AT STAKE IT BECOMES PERSONAL. THE VEHICLE IS NOW PARKED IN THE GARAGE BECAUSE WE FEAR FOR OUR LIVES. PLEASE HELP. *TR

VEHICLE ENGINE WOULD START WITH USE OF IGNITION BUTTON, THEN VEHICLE ENGINE WOULD SHUT OFF WITH OUT WARNING. AT THIS TIME VEHICLE WILL NOT RE-START WITH USE OF IGNITION BUTTON. VEHICLE WOULD JUST ENGAGE STARTER MOTOR AND NOT FIRE ENGINE WITH USE OF IGNITION BUTTON. STARTER WOULD RUN ON UNTIL BUTTON IS PUSHED TO ENGAGE THE OFF POSITION, WITH A NO START CONDITION. AFTER SEVERAL CYCLES OF THE IGNITION BUTTON VEHICLE ENGINE WILL FINALLY START AND STAY RUNNING. PROBLEM IS RECURRING OFTEN.THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE FOR ANY VEHICLE AND THE SAFETY OF ITS OCCUPANTS. THIS CAN LEAD TO LOSS OFF CONTROL OF VEHICLE, POSSIBLE COLLISION AND LOSS OF LIFE, AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE CROWDED INTERSTATES, OR MODERATE SPEEDS ON SMALL TOWN STREETS. *TR

VEHICLE DOES NOT ALWAYS START THE FIRST TIME BUT STALLS AT RANDOM INTERVALS. WHEN THE ISSUE FIRST STARTED OCCURRING, 2-3 TIMES OF PUSHING THE IGNITION THE VEHICLE WOULD FIRE UP. NOW IT TAKES 20-30 PUSHES BEFORE VEHICLE STARTS. LATELY, I'M THE LAST ONE TO LEAVE THE PARKING LOT. I RECENTLY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND INQUIRED ABOUT THE CHRYSLER P54 RECALL. "IN THE AFFECTED VEHICLES, THE FUEL-PUMP RELAY INSIDE THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE MAY FAIL, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING." I WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE VIN DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL. I HAVE A 2011 DODGE DURANGO WITH THE 3.6 L ENGINE. MY VEHICLE IS STALLING AND THE PROBLEM IS GETTING WORSE. *TR

LUCKILY I WAS DRIVING IN A NON-CONGESTED AREA IN A 35 MPH ZONE WHEN MY 2011 DODGE CITADEL LOST POWER AND SHUT OFF. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OF THE ROAD AND IT RESTARTED AFTER CRANKING FOR A WHILE. STARTING SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM ON SOME MORNINGS. THE VEHICLE WILL CRANK AND CRANK THEN AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS IT WILL FIRE. THIS VEHICLE HAS A 5.7L V8 IF THAT MATTERS. I'M WORRIED I MIGHT LOSE POWER ON THE HIGHWAY. JUDGING FROM AN INTERNET SEARCH THIS MAY BE A PROBLEM FOR MANY OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE: HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/DODGE/DURANGO/2011/ELECTRICAL/TIPM_GOING_BAD_VEHICLE_WONT_START_OR_HARD_TO_START.SHTML SOUNDS LIKE A TIPM PROBLEM. *TR
