My wife and I have a concern with our 2007 model as to the proximity of the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal. When the brake pedal is pushed I can also push the accelerator pedal at the same time, if I am not careful. I'v done it more times that I want to, but mostly in our garage when I start the car and push the brake to put it in gear to back out. ...updated 01/29/15

Driving on us1 in the florida keys, key largo. Pulled into turning lane, applied brakes, nothing happened, car continued at regular speed, kept applying brakes without response until the car collided at approximately 30 MPH into a white suburban vehicle. The air bags did not deploy. Tried to get attention from dodge and the dealer that replaced the ABS system the month prior without success. I suffered multiple herniated discs in my cervical.

The front calipers of my durango have seized up 7 times in the last 3 years. It is professionally serviced and the shop is becoming tired of servicing the vehicle since the failures occur under the warranty period and doesn't cost me anything except time. The time between failures is increasing. It was only 3 months and 2000 miles since having new calipers installed this time. The shop had the vehicle for 3 days because so many dodge vehicles are having the same problem calipers are in short supply.

The part is not available nationwide. It may become available next mo. (november). Are there so many damaged, that they run out of replacements? Should this be a recall? Interesting: the car was warranted for 80000 miles, bumper to bumper, and this happens at 83000 miles.

The accelerator of our 2007 durango at rest is about 1 inch lower than the brake. I have several times stepped on the brake to put it in gear and am also stepping on the accelerator, because it is too close to the same height. The brake is slightly higher. This causes quite a jerk when I start the car and put in gear quickly. We have a 2000 durango. The separation height of the brake vs the accelerator is 2 3/4 inches. I've never experienced the same with it. I took the car to two dealers that said there is no adjustment to either the brake or the accelerator. Chrysler corp. Offers no solution. I'd expect that a recall for the brake arm (bent to give higher at rest) should be done. I am very afraid of this condition and fear that it will cause me to lurch ahead or back at some time when I forget to make sure I only have my foot on the brake. I have pictures of the position of the brake and accelerator and can get them to whomever may need them.

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.
