2018 Dodge Durango Suspension Problems

“Durango r/t hemi awd towing package. Noticed rattle,clunking on rear passenger side, as well as increased body roll and rear end sway/road walk on road patches, road surface to bridge transitions, etc. Leading to a steering correction on steering wheel. Very noticeable at highway speeds. Made appt. For dealer inspection/repair. Dealer diagnosed as bad rear strut, ordered new struts for both rear sides and sent me home. I have been waiting almost 4 weeks now, dealer just tells me 138+ struts are on back order, no eta for the parts. …”

“I had a water pump go out and my battery died while fixing it but when I gave it a jump and started it my ABS and stability lights were on and haven’t turned off. It’s been over a year since they turned on. There is a recall for this on 2022 models why does it not apply to my vehicle?”

“The 2018 Dodge Durango has a blown rear shock. I have wore shocks out but never seen blown seals. The car barely has 50k and is not covered under warranty, or my extended warranty. They are on backorder and apparently this is not a new problem. The soonest I can get a shock is the 23rd of next month. It is not safe to drive.”

“I was driving on I75 North in Florida near Ocala (exit 358) traveling about 70mph when I approached slowing traffic. I attempted a slow and steady stop without slamming on the brakes. The emergency braking system engaged but the vehicle failed to stop and I was not able to completely floor the brakes. In an effort to avoid hitting the vehicle in front of me and causing a multiple car collision I swerved onto the grassy side of the road. Because the car would not stop completely my passenger front wheel made contact with a concrete ditch and my vehicle flipped over resulting in a total loss.”

“At 20,00 mi the shocks starting knocking and dealer said not covered under warranty. At 50,000 mi they are complettly shot no shock action at all and dealer says $500.00 per shock and $150.00 labor per shock”
