Faults:

The transmission wouldn't shift, replaced by the dealer, it took 5 days, loaner car was provided.

The power windows at the back went out, the dealer replaced all 4 motors.

Fit and finish suck for a 30k truck.

Front-end ball joints seem to be an ongoing problem for Durango's.

This truck has a 25 gallon gas tank and a huge appetite for gas. I average 10 m.p.g.

General Comments:

The 318 is a stout motor, not a tire scorcher though.

I have since traded to an Isuzu Rodeo LS. Much better truck in all aspects, and a 10 year warranty to boot.

Faults:

Power Windows quit working at 12,000 miles and fixed by dealer. New engine installed at 33,000 miles. New fuel injectors at 36,000 miles. Needs new internal computer because of short at 48,000 miles. Also needs new transfer case seals and tubing to transmission oil cooler replaced because of leaks.

General Comments:

The Durango has been a very comfortable car and is fun to drive.

I would never buy another Durango again however because of all the mechanical problems I have had.

Faults:

Paint bubbled and the clear coat started dulling in areas on the hood. Dealership repainted it 2 times because the first time they left runs in the paint.

A/C not cooling properly - dealer fixed 2 times in a 1 year period.

Engine overheated... overdrive light came on... was stranded in fear of driving the vehicle. Vehicle was towed to the local dealer where purchased... was told there was nothing wrong, that I must have accidentally pushed a button or something. What button do you push to make this happen I ask? You'll have to bring it back if it happens again. OK I replied... put this in writing and if I it causes major damage... you're responsible. It happened again and I was right in front of the dealer... pulled in and told them to take a look.. slow coolant leak. HMMMMM...

Car stalled on me in rushhour traffic going 40 miles an hour on the freeway... car towed to the dealer... fuel sensor was replaced. Two weeks later.. car won't start and was towed to my home because the dealership was closed. Roadside assistance wouldn't arrange a way for me to get home. Wrecker driver took me home. Wrecker driver informed me that it was not the battery because everything else works.. sounds like the fuel pump.

Car won't start.

General Comments:

When will I be stranded again?

Roadside assistance... and the service manager at dealership were very rude. Had to contact Dodge Chrysler headquarters to get my problems fixed.

Vehicle is warranted for 75,000 miles - then I'll say "goodbye".

Dealership has done the normal maintenance on the vehicle - so they can't use that as an excuse for its current or future problems!
