THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO THE SUN ROOF ASSEMBLY BECAUSE THE ASSEMBLY FAILED AT LEAST TEN TIMES BEFORE WITHIN THE PAST TEN MONTHS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE FIRST OCCURRED IN JUNE OF 2017. AT THAT TIME, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (CRYSTAL CHRYSLER/JEEP/DODGE IN BROOKSVILLE, FLORIDA, 352-597-1265) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SUN ROOF FAILED. THE SUN ROOF ASSEMBLY WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER AND THE SUN ROOF WAS REPAIRED ONCE AGAIN.

ON NOVEMBER 24, 2017 CAR PURCHASED FROM PINELLAS AUTO BROKERS, INC. LOCATED AT 4600 66TH STREET NORTH, ST. PETERSBURG, FLORIDA. THE NEXT MORNING, NOVEMBER 25, 2017,CAR WAS TAKEN FOR OIL CHANGE AND INSPECTION. WAS TOLD THE VEHICLE WOULD NEED FRAME RESTORATION AND THEN APPLY FOR A SALVAGE TITLE AFTER INSPECTION, NONE OF WHICH WAS DISCLOSED AT TIME OF PURCHASE. SALESPERSON ASSURED ME THAT NO VEHICLES COME TO THE LOT WITH ANY MAJOR DAMAGE, ONLY MINOR ISSUES. PER MECHANIC, NOT ROAD WORTHY AND IS OUTSIDE MECHANICAL LIMITS; NOT ONLY A DANGER TO THE PASSENGERS, BUT OTHER DRIVERS AS WELL AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IN THIS CAR WITH MY 2 CHILDREN (AGES 3 & 6). MY MOTHER PAID FOR THE CAR VIA DEBIT CARD. WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT RECOURSE I HAVE FOR SELLING AN UNSAFE VEHICLE.

THE TRANSMISSION PUTS ITSELF INTO 4WD SOMETIMES WITH AN INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHT, SOMETIMES WITHOUT. IT DOES THIS BOTH WHEN STOPPED AND AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I'VE SEEN HUNDREDS OF THE SAME COMPLAINT WHEN I SEARCHED THIS ONLINE. IT'S A 2008 MODEL BUT IT'S A RELATIVELY NEW CAR FOR ME SO, THAT IS WHY I'M JUST MENTIONING IT NOW. IN THE FEW MONTHS I'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE, THIS HAS HAPPENED NO FEWER THAN 10 TIMES. ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS IT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I DID NOT CRASH ON EITHER OF THOSE OCCASIONS BUT, IT WAS VERY CLOSE BOTH TIMES. THE SECOND TIME, AFTER LURCHING VERY HARD ACROSS TWO LANES, IT THEN KICKED INTO NEUTRAL AND I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE OR EVEN CONTINUE DOWN THE ROAD TO A SAFE SPOT TO STOP. INSTEAD, I WAS STUCK IN AN ACTIVE LANE TO WAIT ON A TOW TRUCK. LUCKILY, I WAS NOT HIT. I WAS JUST STRANDED. IF THIS WAS JUST ME, I WOULDN'T COMPLAIN HERE. BUT, AS I SAID, I SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME MATTER DATING BACK THE PAST DECADE OR SO. I LIVE IN DUBAI, UAE. MY PHONE NUMBER IS [XXX]. THE NUMBER IN THE INFORMATION BELOW IS A VERY OLD HOME PHONE NUMBER FROM WHEN I LIVED IN THE US. THE ATTACHED FORM WOULDN'T TAKE MY ACTUAL ADDRESS OR PHONE NUMBER.

WHEN TRAVELING ON THE EXPRESSWAY OR THE STREET AT 40 TO 50 MPH MY 2008 DODGE DURANGO ALMOST LOSES CONTROL WHENEVER I HIT A GROOVE IN THE ROAD OR THE SLIGHTEST BUMP. MY SUSPENSION HAS BEEN CHECK SEVERAL TIMES AND NOTHING IS EVER FOUND TO BE WRONG. I WAS RECENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR ANOTHER RECALL WHEN I ASKED ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND I WAS INFORMED THIS WAS CALLED THE "DEATH WOBBLE" OR THE "ROAD WALK". WHEN I HIT A BUMP MY TRUCK CAN LITERALLY SKIP INTO THE NEXT LANE. I HAVE RESEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR DODGE SUVS. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW SOMETHING SO POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE. MY FIRST STEP IS TO FILE A VEHICLE SAFETY TO MAKE YOU GUYS AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING AND I'VE IGNORED IT THINKING THAT IS JUST THE WAY THESE TRUCKS ARE MADE, BUT AFTER ALMOST LOSING CONTROL WITH MY FAMILY IN THE CAR I HAVE TO DO SOMETHING.

GAS TANK FUEL PUMP UNIT LEAKING DUE TO SEVERELY DETERIORATED AND CRACKED PLASTIC. THIS WAS IDENTIFIED AS THE CAUSE OF A DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHT. ONLY AFTER DROPPING THE FUEL TANK IS THE FUEL PUMP UNIT VISIBLE. AIR BUBBLES COULD BE SEEN COMING FROM THE TOP OF THE FUEL PUMP UNIT. A METAL ATTACHMENT RING WAS SEVERELY RUSTED AND THE FUEL UNIT PLASTIC CASING WAS DETERIORATED AND LEAKING. THE WHITE PLASTIC USED FOR THE FUEL UNIT DOES NOT SEEM APPROPRIATE FOR THE HEAT AND CORROSION IN THAT LOCATION. THE FUEL PUMP UNIT WAS REPLACED AND THE WARNING LIGHT IS OFF. THIS VEHICLE HAD THE FUEL FILL TUBE REPLACED SIX MONTHS EARLIER TO RESOLVE THE FUEL SPILL PROBLEM ON THIS VEHICLE MODEL. THE WARNING LIGHT ONLY APPEARED AFTER THAT SERVICE. IT WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER ONCE WITHOUT FINDING THE CAUSE, AND A SECOND TIME WHEN THE PROBLEM WAS FOUND. ONCE THE LIGHT COMES ON IT DOESN'T GO OFF. THE OWNER HAS SOME SUSPICION THAT THE WARNING LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE GAS TANK IS A LITTLE LOW ON FUEL. PREVIOUSLY GAS FUMES COULD SOMETIMES BE NOTED. THE CAR IS STORED OUTSIDE. I, THE OWNER, AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE WHITE PLASTIC MATERIAL USED IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE FUEL PUMP UNIT.

DODGE DURANGO 2008 WITH HEMI 5.7 L ENGINE STALLS AT LOW SPEEDS AFTER I FILL UP THE GAS TANK. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE TANK NOW. I HAVE READ ON CONSUMER FORUMS THAT OTHER DODGE TRUCKS AND CAR OWNERS HAVE ALSO REPORTED THIS PROBLEM. IT IS DANGEROUS, AS THE CAR STALLS WITHOUT ANY WARNING. THIS HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES AFTER FILLUP AND AFTER DRIVING 20 MILES OR SO THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AS MY CAR HAS STALLED IN BUSY INTERSECTIONS AND WHILE TAKING YIELD TURNS. THE VEHICLE HAS ALSO STALLED WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AFTER GAS FILLUP AND AS I TRIED TO SLOW DOWN. WHEN I REPORTED TO THE DEALER, THEY SAID IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

WHEN THE FILLING PUMP NOZZLE SHUTS OFF BACK PRESSURE FROM THE VEHICLES FUEL TANK FORCES A STREAM OF GASOLINE BACK OUT OF THE FILL NECK. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE FUEL TANK IS FILLED.

TAKATA RECALL OVER THE LAST YEAR I HAVE BEGIN SEEING A LOT OF RUST SPOTS ON SEVERAL PARTS OF THE HOOD, BODY AND BACK OF MY VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD USED VEHICLES OF DIFFRENT BRAND THAT PAINT HELD UP BUT, MY VEHICLE IS WHITE AND THIS IS VERY NOTICEABLE. LACK OF USING THE CORRECT RUST TREATMENT IN THE PAINT BY MANUFACTURE CLEARLY COULD IS THE PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AND LOOKED INTO. THE USE OF SHORT CUTS AND CHEAP PRODUCT IS UNFAIR TO THE THOUSANDS THAT I'VE PAD OUT. TAKATA RECALL, CLEARLY I HAVE BEEN WAITING OVER AS YEAR TO HAVE MY AIR BAGS REPLACED. THE FACT IS THEY DON'T HAVE ANY TO DO THE REPLACEMENT. HOW MUCH SINCE DOES IT MAKE TO DO ONE AND NOT BOTH AT ONCE. INSTEAD THEY WANT TO CAUSE HARDSHIP TO MJE AND KEEP MY VEHICLE WITHOUT A RENTAL AND THEN INCONVIUENCE ME TO COME BACK TO HAVE THE OTHER REPLACED. WHAT HAPPENS IF THIS AIR BAG KILLS ME OR ME AD MY PASSENGER THEN WHAT!!!!!!!

WHILE ENTERING ANOTHER HIGHWAY FROM A RAMP IN CRUISE CONTROL, I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE. THE GAS PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR BY ITSELF AND THE CAR ACCELERATED AT A DRASTIC, UNWANTED RATE. I COULD NOT TURN THE CRUISE CONTROL OFF USING THE OFF BUTTON AND I SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES AND HELD THEM DOWN AND STEERED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH THE ENGINE REVVING AT FULL SPEED. I LET UP ON THE BRAKES TO SEE IF IT WOULD STOP, BUT THE CAR ACCELERATED AGAIN AND I HAD TO APPLY THE BRAKES AT FULL FORCE AND BROUGHT THE CAR TO A SHUDDERING STOP WHILE HOLDING THE BRAKES DOWN. WHILE THE ENGINE WAS STILL REVVING AT TOP SPEED, I PUT THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL AND ONLY THEN WOULD THE CRUISE CONTROL BUTTON SHUT OFF. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE 800 MILES WITH NO FURTHER INCIDENCE BY NOT USING THE CRUISE CONTROL AND I WILL BE TAKING IT TO A DEALER IN MY AREA. *TR

VEHICLE STARTED TO RUN VERY ROUGH JUST AFTER EXITING THE HIGHWAY, WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON, AND ALMOST IMMEDIATELY, THE BRAKES BECAME SLUGGISH. CAR WAS PULLED INTO A PARKING SPOT JUST BEFORE IT COMPLETELY DIED. ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE VEHICLE WERE UNSUCCESSFUL. MECHANIC INSPECTION FOUND THAT THE VEHICLE OVERHEATED AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO LOSE POWER AND BRAKES. THE ENGINE WAS DAMAGED AS WELL AS THE RADIATOR, WHICH SPLIT FROM OVERHEATING. NOISE WAS FOUND COMING FROM THE TIMING CHAINS AS WELL AS THE ROCKER ARMS. AT LEAST TWO CYLINDERS HAD LOW COMPRESSION. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE AND RADIATOR WERE DAMAGE TO THE POINT OF NEEDING REPLACEMENT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 DODGE DURANGO. WHEN DRIVING OVER AN OBSTRUCTION IN THE ROAD, THE VEHICLE VEERED TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT INDEPENDENTLY. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO EVENTUALLY REGAIN CONTROL OF THE STEERING WHEEL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN DRIVING UP A HILL OR MAKING A SUDDEN TURN, THE ENGINE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE RESTART THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT A UNKNOWN SENSOR FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS I HAVE HAD THE IGNITION KEY STICK IN THE STARTING POSITION WHILE I WAS ATTEMPTING TO START THE CAR. THIS HAPPENED AS I LET GO OF THE KEY AFTER TURNING IT TO THE START POSITION. THE KEY CAN BE MANUALLY TURNED BACK TO THE OFF OR RUN POSITION. THIS HAS SOMETIMES RESULTED IN A SUCCESSFUL ENGINE START AND AT OTHER TIMES I HAVE CAUGHT IT BEFORE THE ENGINE STARTED. I BELIEVE CHRYSLER HAS ISSUED RECALLS FOR THIS ON OTHER MODELS OR YEARS, BUT NOT FOR THIS CAR.

HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED ABOUT REPLACING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG AND THE IS ON FOR THE AIR BAG.

WHEN AND EVERYTIME VECH. IS REFUELED, GET BLOWBACK OF FUEL. DURING 1 TRIP, FUEL RAN BACK DOWN OUTSIDE OF FILL PIPE AND GAS TANK, AND HIT HOT MUFFLER, LUCKLY IT DID NOT IGNITE. CAN'T FILL GAS TANK MORE THAN HALF WAY, WITHOUT THIS HAPPENING. CALLED DEALER, SERVICE MGR. TOOK VIN#, SAID WASN'T COVER UNDER RECALL OF ANY TYPE, BUT WILL CORRECT PROBLEM WITH NEW GAS TANK FOR APROX. $1000. ANOTHER PROBLEM THAT HAPPEN TWICE NOW, IS ELECT. SYSTEM GOES OUT, LOOSING ALL POWER TO STEERING AND BRAKES, THIS HAPPEN TWICE. ONE TIME WAS WHILE TOWING CAMPER ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY WITH TRAFFIC, WE JUST BARELY GOT OFF ROAD. AGAIN DEALERSHIP, SAID THE RECALL FOR INSTRUMENT AND WIRING COULDN'T AND WOULDN'T CAUSE CAR TO JUST SHUT DOWN AS DESCRIBED. BUT THEY WOULD BE HAPPY TO REPLACE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND CORRECT ANY WIRING PROBLEMS, SAYING COST COULD BE A FEW HUNDRED OR MORE. HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER 3 TIMES, THEY TAKEN INFO. SAID SOMEONE WOULD CONTACT, NEVER A CALL BACK. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED AS A USED CAR FROM A FORD DEALERSHIP, WITH ONLY A LITTLE OVER 10,000. MILES IN 2013, 5YRS OLD AND ONLY 2000 PER YEAR SHOULD OF BEEN A RED FLAG, BUT WAS TOLD A OLDER GENTLEMAN HAD AND FORD DEALER SHOWED A CARFAX REPORT THAT FIT THE MILEAGE.

UPON FILLING THE FUEL TANK, THE PUMP CLICKS OFF AND GASOLINE SPEWS BACK OUT OF THE FUEL FILL NECK. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL DIFFERENT TIMES AT DIFFERENT FUEL STATIONS. APPROXIMATELY A PINT TO A QUART OF GASOLINE QUICKLY SPEWS BACK OUT OF THE TANK COVERING THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND PANTS AND SHOES OF WHOMEVER IS FUELING THE VEHICLE. *TR

THE CLOCK SPRING WITH ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL KEEPS ALARMING. IT IS NOW A DEALER ONLY PART , AT A $900.00 PRICE FOR THE PART. HAVE RECALLS ON DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAGS, PASSENGER AIRBAG NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REFUELING, FUEL SPEWED OUT OF THE FILLER NECK VALVE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

EVERY TIME I FUEL THE VEHICLE UP (AT MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS) THE PUMP DOES NOT SHUT OFF A WHEN THE TANK IS FULL, CAUSING FUEL SPIT BACK AND OVERFLOW. THIS CAUSES A FIRE DANGER AND A HAZMAT SITUATION. *TR
