2013 Dodge Durango transmission problems

Filed Jul 22, 2025 · Transmission · OH

My vehicle randomly stalled in the middle of the road (I was unaware of the recall, I was not notified of recall upon purchase of vehicle) when I was towed to shop they confirmed the issue was the fuel pump relay (I believe that is what it’s called that the recall is for) I was charged $700 for 2.5 mile tow and repair. After leaving the shop my vehicle began having other problems shortly after (within a month) my vehicle stopped accelerating like a normal vehicle would, it was harder to accelerate it seemed and then the noise.. it is like a knock or a grind? I was told I needed to replace my engine mount so I did… another $850 later and the noise is worse and it still doesn’t accelerate like it should and they are saying my transfer case needs replacing and that it will cost me 2k just for the parts. My car was in perfect condition before the relay failed.. no issues. So is it another recall or is it damage due to a recall I was never notified of?

Vehicle goes into low gear and locks up the traction control on its own. Without turning the knob to 4WD. The knob is in AWD when this happens. Usually you can put in neutral and turn the knob back and forth then let the car roll forward a little bit and the low gear and traction control will turn off, then you have to wait a little bit then put it in drive and continue. That is not a fix, and the last time it happened, it would not come out of low gear and I had to have it towed to the dealership. A week later they looked at it and it was not showing any codes, so they cannot fix anything. 3 days after I pick up car it does it again. Possible TCM is what technicians think but because no codes show up they won't fix anything. When this happens at a stop light and you start to move forward and it freezes up it is very unsafe.

1.The air bag light come on & off randomly. The air bag has never been deployed. 2. The transmission misfires, I don't know if it has to do with the fuel pump relay. I've replaced almost the entire transmission and still does the same thing.

The check engine light came on, and it was taken to the dealer a few days later for service. I was told that it was code p0741: torque converter clutch circuit performance and that it was a chrysler star case: s1321000013, which meant that the only solution was to replace the transmission, at a cost of $5,000. The vehicle had an extended warranty that recently expired, only has around 84,500 miles and has been serviced regularly. I contacted chrysler for financial assistance as this issue was not my fault and was denied. Called in twice, wrote a formal letter of complaint, and sent an email to chrysler complaint department. Have yet to receive any response back. Vehicle is not safe to drive and currently parked.
