Filed May 3, 2021 · Driver assistance · TX

This car is a danger to everyone. It randomly cuts off shutout warning. I took it to a mechanic shop and they advised there was a recall that causes the car to stall out and I needed to take it to the dealership to have the work done. I took it to the dealership who said they completed the work and we left. Less than a week later the car is still randomly cutting off. It cuts off without warning while driving or at complete stop. It almost caused me to have an accident because the car stall and locked up so I couldn't turn to avoid hitting anything. Thankfully the car was able to a low to a stop before hitting q curb and going into a ditch. After the car stalls ibhve to out the car in park, turn the key off and crank the car back up and it starts to drive. The problem is ibhave no clue when its going to don't again and no one can tell me why the issue is happening. It has happened at least 7 times since getting the recall work completed less than a month ago. It happens both while driving and stationary. It happens while driving straight or turning. So far I have been lucky enough for it not to happen on the highway as I'm scared to drive in the highway because I would probably due due to an accident if this happens at a high rate of speed in a highway. The latest incident happened today 5/3/2021.

The forward crash warning shuts off automatically while I'm going down the road. It also gets stuck in park if this happens while I'm sitting still. I have to restart the car to get it out of gear. It also randomly tells me that adaptive cruise is not available

My wife was driving her 2012 durango and the battery light came on and blind spot warning was going off. The engine started making a loud noise. She was 2 miles from home, so I told her to drive home and take my truck. When I got home I investigated the issue. Within 1 minute of me idling the engine to listen for where noise the alternator started smoking and internal were glowing red.

This is the 3rd time in the past 3 months I've been taking this vehicle to service for different service issues. The most recent one is the dash and whipers started going crazy, a sudden smell of burnt wires/electric burn. The vehicle shut down while in motion locking the steering wheel and the gear shifter didn't want to engage. I tried starting the vehicle but it wouldn't start. The vehicle is not comunicating with the starting key. The vehicle got towed to the deelsrship and after two days they called me back saying that the vehicle is not comunicating with the tipm (totally integrated power module) therefor the can't make a diagnosis. They will have to check each wire one by one abd that check up is going to cost 4 hours of work at a cost of approximately $400 before they can run a diagnosis.

Recall has been issued but no parts are available - this has been in limbo for some time now. The vehicle has been having a lot of trouble the past two months - stalling, jumping, trouble shifting gears on its own, shutting off at stops, hard to make a smooth transition into different speed limits. I am concerned for my safety and have not heard of when the parts will be available.

My dodge durango stopped working one week ago. At that time I looked online to find the alternator recall but that they would be notifying people at a later date. For a week they had my car and replaced the alternator knowing dodge had bad alternators and made me purchase a battery. My car again died the same day after my partner left the lot. After it was again towed for the second time they found that my car was now under the recall even though I had already told them there was an issue with my car. The website states there is no solution to the problem and now I am stuck with a broken car with my car value dropping significantly. Dodge needs to refund me the money I have already spent plus mileage and gas communiting to and from viera to titusville florida driving my partner to work and picking my son up from school and going back and forth and emotional distress. This company should be ashamed of themselves. I am now stuck with a rental car and left in the dark as to what is happening to my car. In a separate incident I paid out almost 1,000 to go out to my car at the dealership to find it did not work. At that time the man walked inside and came back out with a piece for the fuel relay recall. I again want to know why this dodge dealership continues to charge me and play me for a fool. Dodge should be embarrassed. How does someone now check for recalls before operating on a vehicle?
