“My 2007 Dodge Durango limited has been having an issue where the 4x4 keeps turning itself on without me actually engaging it. Ive been having a very huge with solving the issue but I was able to read a forum which stated that I should fill out this form. This issue happens when the vehicle is parked, in motion, or when I hit the unlock button on the key pad.”

NHTSA complaint #11315494, filed 2020-03, 151,000 miles

“Our Durango randomly shuts off while driving or when we are idle. It happens a lot when making turns and I loose steering as well. Abs indicator on as well as check engine light. The check engine light usually shows o2 sensors or crank shaft sensors. Had both replaced many times and the issue still occurs. Very dangerous situation, as it is our family car.”

“My 2007 Durango has developed a turn signal problem where when the left turn signal is triggered, the right signal actually is operated indicated by inside and outside lights. This is verified by irate drivers letting me know!! This is a very serious safety problem and I can't believe there is no recall on this!”

“I will be driving and my 4wd lock will engage without me turning it on causing my tires to stick to the road. It prevents me from turning my steering wheel without the car acting like it is going tip over. It seems like the same problem that was experienced with the 2006 Dodge durangos.”

NHTSA complaint #10434445, filed 2011-11, 82,000 miles

“While driving every light and gauge started bouncing back and forth. No headlights or brake lights. After shutt it off it continued to do it. This seems to happen anytime it rains or moisture in the air. I have had the wiring harness in the steering column replaced at the dealer and the controller for the blinkers replaced at a local mechanic. This has not solved the issue.absolutely afraid it is going to die on the highway while doing this. This happened while is was driving but have had it happen as soon as I start the Durango. …”
