My 2012 Dodge Durango was serviced under the federal safety agency Campaign 19-V813. This called for the replacement of the fuel pump relay to correct a potential no-start or stall situation. This also prevented fuel pump failure due to the unit not being switched off by the TIPM when the car is turned off. This repair has not corrected the problem. The car would be available for inspection upon request. The safety of the occupants could be at risk. The problem is intermittent and has not been able to be duplicated at the dealer. There are no warning lamps or codes that can be read. The car will crank over for an extended period of time but will not start. This is an intermittent problem and occurs two times a month or more, has been happening since Fall of 2020, and has been increasing in frequency. The fuel pump relay was replaced in June 2021 and the car had a no-start two weeks later. The check engine light does not come on. No codes are found by the dealer. The engine has not quit while in motion, but possibly could as this problem increases in frequency. On two occasions while the car was in motion the right rear window went down for no reason. The window could not be raised until the car was brought to a stop, turned off and started again. The window could then be raised using the driver's door control. This poses a danger to the occupants of the vehicle especially during severe weather and is at least a distraction to the driver. The common denominator in these two problems is the TIPM. I think the fuel pump relay problem is actually a problem found deeper within the TIPM. Chrysler is simply saying that the "flix" is a relay and not the real culprit, the much more expensive TIPM. The dealer says they cannot diagnose this problem unless it is happening on their lot. They have inspected the fuel pump relay work that was done under recall and said that the installation was correct.

I believe that my vehicle falls under the Dodge R09 recall. As I accelerated on the gas, my car stalled out causing me to coast to the median. After about 30 minutes the car began to run without issue again. My vehicle acted exactly like the description from the recall for the fuel sensor. However, Dodge told me to pay out of pocket because it was not under the recall.

After my vehicle stalled while driving as stated by the prior recall, I have had the same problem as though my car will just stop running at any time. It is quite scary to think that I am driving a 'fixed' car and am experiencing the same problems as before. My car now unlocks and locks as well, which is a huge safety concern because I cannot keep safely any personal information in my vehicle or prevent it from being broken into. The intial recall repair did not fix the underlying problem. I am waiting for it to stall out.

Since I purchased this vehicle in january 2020 11th, it drove like it had bad gas in it. It wanted to go when I accelerated but slow to move. I was not told by the dealer nor given car fax about the recall and the dangerous it could pose to me and my family. I had a leak, which had to do with transmission and I repaired it out of our own expenses bc it wasnt covered. It also stopped turning on as well. My husband was visiting his sister, and it cut off while coming onto the on the ramp of a local street. Exactly what the recall said as notified in december 2020 happened while in motion on a busy road. I am thankful it was my husband and not me and my three young children. That day was january 1st 2021, the car was towed to my home, aaa only allows one tow. And gate of dealership was closed. It is still there. And I was told it was on back order the part and wont be in until february. I am without a loaner as well as a rent a car. Unfortunately the dealership in my home wont have the part until febuary and I already drove to the dealer I purchased from over 100 miles away 2x since our pruchase and its not safe to drive.

My durango started to spurter around 30 MPH and again at around 50 MPH. It also seem to not have to power to get the durango to get up and go it seem to lag and not have the power. I am not understanding why there is no replacement for the recall parts for this vehicle. Back in 2018 I had to get the vehicle looked at and they said there is no new product to replace the recall part and here we are in 2020 and still dodge has nothing to replace the bad part with. I am having to purchase the part that is not working and replace it with a new bad part. Dodge it is time to get it together and fix it
