2002 Dodge Durango Exterior lighting Problems

“Driving to school in the morning, all lights inside and out started flickering. Turned them off, but the headlights stayed on highbeams the whole time while still flickering. Alarm also stopped working. On the drive back the highbeams stayed on again the whole time even when its on off switch. Inside lights won t stay on. When I turn the car on the darn lights will not turn off. Doing my research it seems that its the ctm, and alot of people have had that experience. I have 3 children, what if my lights flicker off again and cause an accident?”

“Electronic controls of safety equipment do not funtion properly. Turn signals,lights,cruise. Gauges,windows,radio,airbag etc.. All have malfuntioned since the car was picked up from the dealer. It is obvious that a electrical problem exists in the vehicle but doddge/chrysler is un willing to address the issue .this is an ongoing issue. I have numerous witnesses and have started video recording the problems.”

“I have a 2002 Dodge Durango and I am experiencing the following problem. The headlights and parking lights go off and on while driving at night. This also occurs while parked and the headlights are on. Started about 3 days ago and has gotten worse. The lights stay off longer and it is happening more frequent. All inside lights flicker as well. I have looked on the forums and have found that this is an issue with the 1999 - 2003 model years and in fact, Dodge has a recall for the 2003 year for the central timer module. This is a safety issue that needs to be acknowledged and fixed.”
