“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“Engine quit. Similar I think to like car that I have recall on for tipm nhtsa24v-530 seems awful coincidental. Multiple occurrences but all when stopped on this car. Perhaps same part used in prior year that is being recalled for 2011.”
NHTSA complaint #10695200, filed 2015-03, 65,000 miles“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“2007 Durango randomly stalls while driving down tbe highway. It has stalled as many as 3 times in 12 mile trip from home. It stalls while idling at a stop light. It will stall when slowing down and the transmission will shift hard at times. You never know when it will stall. I'm scared to drive it. It stalled on the interstate when I was driving in heavy traffic at 60mph. I know other models have been recalled and it seems to be a frequently ask question on some Dodge forums. This is a life threatening problem. I have replaced the camshaft and crank sensor, ignition coils, pcu and asd relays. …”
NHTSA complaint #11362598, filed 2020-10, 100,000 miles“Vehicle shifted into 4wd and then to neutral and would not shift back. Had to pull to side of road to avoid a collision. The problem here is actually the transfer case motor. On the awd model it is a 2 speed motor on 2wd it is a one speed motor. This is important because you need to know which you have if you are looking to replace it”
