Fuel/propulsion system, Jan 11, 2025
There have been several times where I am stopped at a light or stop sign and the car stalls. It happens when I try to start going from the stop, not while I'm stopped. I believe this an issue that has been recalled already, but obviously, it did not fix the problem. My vehicle will also not turn over sometimes. It just continually try to turn over multiple times and I have to wait for it to stop on its own before I can try again.

My vehicle has had recalls performed multiple times since 1st purchased in 2012. The issue was vehicle stalling. At 1st Chrysler / Dodge addressed it as issues upon start up where the vehicle sounded as though it was skipping when hitting the ignition button. They attempted to remedy this with multiple fuel pump relay recalls. They attempted to do internal which did not work. They then went external which also did not work. Nothing was ever formerly recognized as a suitable resolution, so any of us dealing with this were just forgotten. Well I still have this vehicle and it has gotten worse to the point the vehicle will randomly stall while in motion as it did the other day and on multiple other occasions. Under braking conditions the vehicle stalls where everything on the dash appears normal electronically, there is just no power and the steering locks up. I have addressed this multiple times with Dodge customer service as well as my local dealership. The dealership does not want to attempt any repairs because they want to be paid and the manufacturer is not entertaining it. I am aware the vehicle is out of warranty but I am not paying for something the manufacturer has known about since first purchased. There has been no further actions by the manufacturer to address this. They have moved on to newer existing Durango models.

The 2014 through 2018 3.6L Pentastar motors are covered under a tech service bulletin for their Drivers side valve train being manufactured incorrectly. This can lead to a misfire and hesitation to accelerate in an Emergency. This happened to me recently and I thought it was just a bad spark plug. Mechanic did a full check and believes there is a stuck valve in the engine on the exact same side that the 2014 to 2018 motors are prone to failure. I believe the 2012 and 2013 Engines are also prone to the same failures as their newer counter parts. As I was trying to accelerate to avoid an incident my car stuttered and started to misfire badly. Almost causing a collision. This happened without warning and never previously had this issue. Vehicle was completely mechanically sound before this. This can happen without any warning or signs its going to happen. And after bringing the vehicle to a mechanic and doing much of my own research it appears that the drivers side of the 3.6L v6 in my vehicle is currently under a TSB for the #2,4,6 cylinder head. This can cause the vehicle to have no power for a moment which if I were merging onto the highway and lacked powered could result in a rear end collision. Believe this is a safety issue as well as mechanical issue.

I Came into dealership for scheduled service appointment on Apr 5, 2023 10:30:00 AM at EDWARDS CDJR OF OMAHA to get recall fixed on fuel pump relay and an oil change after receiving my 2012 Dodge Durango Citadel back my lights randomly starting blanking and my vehicle stalled and it wouldn’t start or turn over. So I spoke to service rep [XXX] at EDWARDS CDJR OF OMAHA 17950 Burt St and had the car towed back to the dealership that fixed on it EDWARDS CDJR OF OMAHA. I was originally told they didn’t have a loaner to lend to me so I can continue being a caregiver to my mother and transport her and my 7 children around until 04/21/2023 and that someone would call me that day to pickup a loaner vehicle. I called on 04/21/2023 about the loaner and they said someone would call me by midday to pick up a loaner. Now it’s Monday 04/24/2023 and I get a text stating 10 things are wrong with my vehicle in this link https://c.xtime.com/vkepCy2nkAoA2L4fXX including the PCM, which was more items then what was originally stated when they had inspected my vehicle on 04/05/2023 during the recall fix. So I informed them that, “ I will not pay for the pcm to be fixed because this issue is a result of whoever was the mechanic that was originally supposed to fix the recall fuel pump relay, so your shop has to fix it due to negligence on your mechanic's fault. I don't want to have to take anyone to court or give this issues to an attorney, this was sent to better business bureau because I have been left without transportation and facing economic hardship due to this situation.” Then they had their Service Manager [XXX] reach out to me over the phone, and he said that he spoke to three on-site master mechanic at the dealership and they all said the PCM had nothing to do with the fuel pump relay recall. I asked about escalating the issue and submitting an incident report to an higher up authority, he said he can’t. I asked again about the loaner he said there’s no loaner available.

My 2012 Dodge Durango has been experiencing reaccering issues associated with the tipm and fuel pump relay. The truck will stall, hard crank or simply not crank at all; leaving me stranded sometimes. This electrical issue also affects the fog lights, front lights, brake lights and turn signals; causing them to not work; putting me in danger of a collision on the highway or city street. This tipm and fuel pump relay have been under several recalls over the past 8 years and Dodge actually lost a class action lawsuit in 2015 in reference to this issue. They were ordered to replace these parts free of charge; labeling the parts defective. See link to tipm/relay article here (https://www.classlawgroup.com/chrysler-totally-integrated-power-module-tipm-lawsuit/ and here https://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/closed-settlements/dodge-jeep-faulty-fuel-pump-class-action-settlement/ ) They’ve replaced both of these parts twice for me over the past 6 years. Now I am experiencing issues where the car won’t start for 20 minutes after I turn it off. The signal lights won't work correctly; and the foglights are totally inoperative. I’ve taken it back to the dealer for a diagnostic and also called the corporate office but no one wants to take accountability and acknowledge what the issue is. I have attempted to contact the lawyer who started the class action lawsuit to consult about this matter but he says he can't sue them again. I’m looking to see if I have any legal recourse or what my best course of action could be in order to hold Dodge accountable for replacing my tipm and fixing this defective part for good. Thanks!

I had just picked my car up from getting brakes and an inspection (obviously passed). I was driving home and there was smoke from under the hood with an electrical fire smell. My dash went crazy then I completly lost power. I had no stearing or brakes- couldn't even put on my hazards or roll down the window down to tell cars behind me to pass me. I immediatly called the garage that had just done the work to get it towed. They called today and told me that the alternator blew up and fried the battery and possible the computer (tip module??) I looked up recalls and noticed that there has been problems with this happening but my VIN didn't come up for this. I just wanted to check into the recall before I spent thousands of dollars.
Electrical system, Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Sep 21, 2021
Had the recall for shutting down repair again and still having the same problem. I've spent over $2000 In diagnosed fees with dealership and private shops and still having the same problem. Yes the fuel pump relay was replaced 2 times. Still having the same problem it will start back up but locks the steering wheel to where you can't turn it. Which almost was in a accident but was able to stop before. It's happens every month but was told not to bring it back to the dealership as they cant find the problem as all recalls were repaired.
Fuel/propulsion system, Jul 28, 2021
I am trying to submit a report that a Dealer is not providing me service for a recall but there isn't a link to do so, only a missive telling me that i should. I am being told by the dealer that the parts to fix the Fuel pump relay problem on the 2012 Dodge Durango are in a National shortage at the moment but they will not provide me with documentation that proves this so i am unable to ship my vehicle home.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A VEHICLE MARCH 2, 2021. I NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE HAS 3 RECALLS. THE DEALER THAT I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM DIDN'T HAVE ANY IMMEDIATE AVAILABILITY TO FIX THE VEHICLE. SO I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH DODGE DEALERSHIP. MY CAR WAS AT FACILITY 2 DAYS. ONCE I PICKED UP VEHICLE THEY INFORMED ME THEY COULDN'T FIX TWO OF THE RECALLS. JASON ( SERVICE GUY) INFORMED ME THAT HE WOULD UPDATE ME. WELL A MONTH LATTER HE TELLS ME THAT THE PARTS AREN'T THERE YET . CHRYSLER HASN'T RELEASED THE PARTS YET.

DODGE HAS ISSUES A RECALL TO THE FUEL PUMP RELAY. IN THE RECALL LETTER IS STATES "A VEHICLE ENGINE STALL WHILE DRIVING CAN CAUSE A VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING". I'VE CALLED THE DEALER AND TOLD THE RECALL PARTS ARE ON BACKORDER AND WOULD ARRIVE IN 2-3 WKS. I CALLED, THE PARTS ARE RESTRICTED MEANING THEY ARE ONLY SHIPPING 1 PART PER DEALER PER WEEK AND TALKING TO THE PARTS MANAGER MY CAR WILL NOT RECEIVE IT'S RECALL PARTS FOR MONTHS OUT. MY CAR IS UNRELIABLE AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE IN WINTER CONDITIONS IN CHICAGO. THIS IS COMPLETELY ABSURD.

FUEL PUMP RELAY NHTSA V62, 19V-813 WHILE PRESSING THE ELECTRONIC IGNITION SWITCH TO START MY VEHICLE, MY VEHICLE WENT INTO A NO-START CONDITION WHERE THE VEHICLE CRANKED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE STALLING OUT COMPLETELY. AFTER PRESSING THE ELECTRONIC IGNITION SWITCH TO THE OFF POSITION AND OPENING-UP MY DRIVER'S DOOR TO RESET THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO PRESS THE ELECTRONIC IGNITION SWITCH AGAIN AND START MY VEHICLE. THIS IS CONCERNING BECAUSE I HAVE HAD THE LATEST V62 RECALL REPAIR DONE CORNING THIS MATTER.

THE VEHICLE HAS HAD AN OPEN RECALL FOR OVER A YEAR ABOUT THE FUEL PUMP RELAY. MY VEHICLE HAS STOPPED RUNNING A FEW TIMES WHILE BEING DRIVEN ON THE FREEWAY. AT FIRST, IT WAS ABLE TO RESTART AFTER A FEW MINUTES. THEN, THE VEHICLE DID NOT START AT ALL. DODGE SAYS THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PROPER RECALL REPAIR PART MADE YET AND WOULD STILL REPLACE IT WITH THE CURRENT PART THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED. I DID NEED TO HAVE THAT DONE TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE. AFTER 2 MONTHS OF DRIVING AN 80 MILE DAILY ROUND TRIP TO WORK AND HOME, IT HAS STOPPED RUNNING AGAIN. I HAVE CALLED DODGE AND TRIED TO GET THE VEHICLE TOWED AND FIXED PROPERLY BUT THEY ACT LIKE IT IS NOT THEIR COMPLETE CONCERN. THEY ARE CURRENTLY NOT PROVIDING TOWING OR A RENTAL. THIS IS VERY UNACCEPTABLE FOR A MANUFACTURER TO POST A RECALL AND THEN NOT GET IT PROPERLY FIXED IN OVER A YEAR TIME FRAME.

THIS IS IN REFERENCE TO THE RECALL ON DODGE DURANGO FUEL PUMP RELAY. SINCE THIS RECALL HAS STILL NOT BEEN OPENED TO BE FIXED, I AM AT THE POINT WHERE MY VEHICLE IS NOT STARTING BECAUSE OF IT. IF IT DOES START I AM WORRIED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF IT CAUSING VEHICLE TO STOP WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE FOUR CHILDREN AND THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. LIKE MANY OTHERS IN THIS TIME OF COVID, I DO NOT HAVE THE FUNDS TO FIX THIS EXPENSIVE RECALL. IS THERE ANY UPDATE ON WHEN THIS CAN BE FIXED? I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT IS STILL NOT APPROVED. THIS STARTED ABOUT 3-4 WEEKS AGO AND NOW IS GETTING WORSE. CAR WOULDN'T START AT ALL YESTERDAY. I HAVE SCANNED AND CHECKED EVERYTHING WITH MECHANIC. HE SAYS IT IS RECALL ITEM HE BELIEVES.

I PURCHASED MY 2012 DODGE DURANGO, USED, WITH APPROXIMATELY 75K MILES. SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, I'VE EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS PROBLEMS THAT BEGAN WITH THE TRANSMISSION. ADDITIONALLY, THE CAR GOES INTO "LOW GEAR" EVEN WHEN YOU DON'T TURN THE KNOB. OVER THE PAST YEAR, THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP MORE TIMES THAN I CAN COUNT FOR THE DOORS LOCKING AND UNLOCKING ON THEIR OWN. I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS WHEN IN PUBLIC. MY KEY FOB HASN'T WORKED EVEN AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY INSIDE. THE CAR HAS SET THE ALARM OFF EVEN WHEN UNPROMPTED. IT WILL LOCK/UNLOCK WHILE DRIVING.THE CAR HAS STALLED, WHILE DRIVING, AT LEAST 3 TIMES SINCE NOVEMBER 2019. FOR EACH OCCURRENCE, THE VEHICLE WAS SLOWING/EXCELLING WITH A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR TO TURN INTO A PARKING LOT. ON ONE OCCASION, THE CAR WOULD NOT CRANK OVER AND A RED LIGHT WAS BLINKING ON THE DASH. THE LOCK ISSUE BEGAN HAPPENING AGAIN AND I COULD NOT GET IT STARTED. IT HAD BEEN STATIONARY. WHEN I CAME BACK TO THE VEHICLE LATER, IT WORKED FINE WITH NO RED LIGHT. THE MECHANICS NOTICED THE TEMPERAMENTAL PROBLEMS BUT COULD NOT GET THE VEHICLE TO CONSISTENTLY REPEAT THE PROBLEM. I'VE ALSO REPLACED THE WATER PUMP AND HAD ISSUES WITH THE AIR CONDITIONING. AT THIS MOMENT, IT DOESN'T WANT TO WORK FOR THE DRIVER'S SPOT ONLY.

RECALL 19V-813 IS FOR SAFETY AND HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED SINCE THE ENGINE BEGAN STOPPING IN 2013 NOR SINCE THE FIRST RECALL OR SINCE THE SECOND RECALL IN NOVEMBER 2019. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I HAVE HAD THE CAR STOP WHILE DRIVING AND NOT RESTART. SOMETIMES IT DOES NOT START IN THE GARAGE. I HIT THE FUEL PUMP RELAY WITH A HAMMER AND IT WILL WORK FOR A LITTLE WHILE. DODGE DOES NOT ALLOW ME TO FIX THIS MYSELF. CAN I HAVE A NEW CAR? (RECALL RELATED INCIDENT) TS
Fuel/propulsion system, Jul 1, 2020
VEHICLE HAS STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES. EITHER RIGHT AFTER START UP OR WHILE DRIVING. IN ALL CASES I HAVE FOUND THAT THE 20 AMP FUSE THAT WAS INSTALLED FOR RECALL R09 FROM 2015 IS MELTING AND CAUSING THE FUEL PUMP RELAY TO FAIL WHICH IS CAUSING THE STALL CONDITION. THE FUSE IS EASILY REPLACED BUT THE STALLING IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE FREQUENT, HAPPENING AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK. DODGE SAYS THERE IS NO REMEDY FOR THIS AND THERE ARE NO PARTS TO JUST REPLACE THE CURRENT SET UP. SO NOW I AM STUCK WITH THIS ISSUE UNTIL DODGE FIGURES OUT WHAT IS WRONG. EACH INSTANCE OF STALLING HAS OCCURED AT 25 MPH OR LESS BUT ITS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE IT HAPPENS AT A HIGHER SPEED.
