“2 weeks ago my steering went out. My mechanic says the electric power steering is faulty and the part is on back order and no one can tell him when it might be available but the manufacturer did tell him that there are 160 customers waiting on this part. I am currently without a vehicle due to this, as are the other 159 customers waiting.”

“Three weeks ago, the power steering failed on my SUV while in motion on a city street. It tightened up severely, making it very difficult to steer. The Dodge dealer says the electric power steering control module is faulty and the part is on back order. Today (dec.19), I was told the part would not be available until sometime in january. A parts representative offered to locate a generic part from another manufacturer, which I declined.”

Pulled into next safe parking lot and opened hood. Couldn't see any flames and after about 5 - 10 minutes smoke stopped. Tried driving vehicle and it seemed ok except for no power steering. Drove vehicle home and called the 800 number for customer service for chrysler, Dodge and they told me to call a local chrysler, Dodge dealer for a service appointment. …”

“Bought a used Durango 5 months ago at an official Dodge dealership in new hampshire, was told that it was in great condition. Came back to the same car dealership for a state inspection to find out that they failed us for a leaking steering gear/rack, charging us an overpriced cost of $1900. Come to find through another mechanic shop that this was not worth a fail and that it was not in need of an immediate fix. The Dodge dealership made us feel pressured to get this fixed right away. The 2014 Durango with only 63000 miles should not already have an issue like this.”
