My 2009 dodge durango 4wd v8-5.7l hybrid is lurching and thumping during breaking at low speeds. A certified mechanic determined the issue is the "rear axle pinion nut". The mechanic also informed me that this part is under recall on my model automobile (n08130925-051). A call to chrysler customer service revealed that my vehicle has an 8.25 rear axle and the recall is only on vehicles with a 9.25 rear axle. The representative at chrysler said that there is nothing they can do to help me. I find it incredibly unreasonable to have recalled this vehicle model with the identical problem on a different size axle and not also fix the recalled problem on my vehicle.
