NHTSA complaint #10454553, filed 2012-04, 154,000 miles“My Dodge Durango (1999) started stalling at random times two summers ago. It took me many trips to the dealer and alot of research on the internet and a yell fest with the Dodge field rep. But I got it fixed. They had no idea what was wrong with it, it is the PCM(power control module).....finally convinced them they didn't want a lawsuit on their hands if my family was killed due to this major defect in durangos, mainly 1999 from what I have read. Pcm replaced, no problems with stalling since.”
NHTSA complaint #10231309, filed 2008-06, 55,000 miles“I drove to town, stopped and turned off my engine for an 30 minute wait with construction. It started and I drove to visit my son. I turn off the engine, stayed a bit to visit, went to go home and it wouldn't start. Finally got it to start and drove it home and parked it. Drove to town a couple of days later and it died while driving, barely made it to town. Looked for information on the net only to find this is a very common problem and a major safety issue. This vehicle dies while driving and control of the vehicle at highway speeds is highly dangerous. Why hasn't chrysler issued a recall? …”
