I had my radio recall done on my car. However, I had to have my radio replaced under warranty after the software recalls were applied on my old radio. The new radio never had the software recalls installed. I took my radio into the dealer to have my radio updated with the recalls. I had been having intermittent issues with the backup camera not working at times which was one of the recalls my radio did not have installed. The radio is up to date now but I am bearing financial responsibility. I've been in contact with Chrysler over the phone and eventually over email where they are saying they are denying my recall reimbursement because they are considering it a warranty issue and not a recall issue. Reimbursement amount I am seeking is $891.17 that I was charged by the dealer. I have the receipt if needed. The dealer told me there was nothing on their end of things they could do.

Daytime driving lights on drivers side went out and passenger is still on that is the lights yhat run in the daytime and when I took it to the dealership I was told they was aware of the situation but they said they was not responsible for it, but it also comes on at night with my head lights, and my local police said to me if the light is on the vehicle it must work, so this shoukd be considered a safety issue the drl can't just be replaced the whole headlight assembly has to be chaged which is 1000.00 why should all the people be reasonable for replacement of a design flaw and also us being responable a safety situation by state and federal guidelines.
My 22 Durango r/t makes a noise when the air conditioner is on they already replaced the water pump and air compressor
The rear spoiler detached on I-40 East bound and flew into traffic. This occurred on 9/25/2026. I have contacted my local dealership multiple times and they have informed me that a permanent fix is not available and the part is on back order. I am requesting that the replacement be ordered, installed, and properly inspected free of charge. Dodge is very lucky injury didn’t occur.
Taillight is retaining water and causing my taillights to go out. This is a very well known issue as the dealer was aware of this issue with a lot of Durangos. The dealer offered no repair as there’s not be a recall and the warranty on my Durango is up. My rear hatch/lift gate is also off and rubbing near the bottom causing the paint to be worn and now beginning to rust. There’s are definitely a quality issue with Dodge as there’s many other Durango’s affected by this.
Vehicle Headlight with built in DRL and Ambiant Turn signal with only 7779 miles on the dashboard, purchased brand new in 2023
I own a 2022 Dodge Durango. During normal loading and unloading of cargo with the liftgate open, I have sustained three separate lacerations to my forearm and wrist from the exposed, sharp inside corners of the rear taillight assemblies. The injuries have occurred on both the driver-side and passenger-side taillights during ordinary use of the cargo area. Each incident resulted from simply reaching into or removing items from the rear cargo area. The taillight corners are extremely sharp and are positioned where a person’s arms naturally pass while using the cargo area. The cuts were severe enough to leave permanent scars, and I have photographs documenting the injuries. After experiencing these injuries, I found that other Dodge Durango owners have reported similar lacerations from the same taillight design. Based on my experience and these other reports, I believe the rear taillight assemblies present an unreasonable risk of laceration during normal, foreseeable use of the vehicle. I am submitting this complaint so the federal safety agency can evaluate whether this design presents a safety defect and determine whether further investigation is warranted.
Replaced batteries, and power steering went out, it put my vehicle out of alignment... I tried getting an alignment at local Firestone. Told me they could not connect to the angle sensors and that I need to get a new rack and pinion
