2015 Dodge Durango Complaint Log

WATER POOLS UP IN TAIL LIGHTS EVERY TIME IT RAINS, CAUSES TAIL LIGHT TO APPEAR 'BURNED OUT' LIGHT APPEARS TO GO OUR DUE TO WATER IN TAIL LIGHT. COULD CAUSE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS OR CRASH.

WHILE SITTING PARKED IN A PARKING SPOT AND ENGINE RUNNING THE HEADREST DEPLOYED WHILE MY HEAD WAS AGAINST IT. THERE WAS NO COLLISION WITH ANY OTHER VEHICLES OR OBJECTS. IT CAUSED MY HEAD TO FLY FORWARD AT AN ACCELERATED RATE CAUSING NECK PAIN AND A MASSIVE HEADACHE. THE NOISE WHEN IT DEPLOYED WAS EXTREMELY LOUD AS IF SOMEONE TOOK A BASEBALL BAT TO THE BACK OF THE HEADREST. WHEN LOOKING INSIDE AFTERWARDS THERE IS BROKEN PIECES OF PLASTIC.*DT*JB*JB*DT *TP

60,000 MILE GARAGE KEPT DURANGO WITH P0455 (EVAP PURGE HOSE CRACK) CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. WARRANTY IS OUT (SO MUCH FOR MY EXTENDED WARRANTY- WONT COVER) AND DEALERSHIP WONT REPAIR WITHOUT CHARGING ME. THERE ARE NUMEROUS TSB 25-002-15 REGARDING THIS PROBLEM. ISSUE A RECALL.. REAR TAILLIGHTS ALL LEAK WATER. MOISTURE AND WATER IS VISIBLE AND THE CAR HASN'T BEEN WET IN SOME TIME. MY COMPLAINT MATCHES THE OTHERS OUT THERE. FACORY LIGHTS LEAKING CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE LIGHTING ASPECT AND SAFETY OF MY VEHICLE AND OTHER AROUND ME. DEALERSHIP WONT REPLACE, WARRANTY WONT COVER. PRICING IS ABSURDLY HIGH TO REPLACE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND A RECALL NEED TO ISSUED. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE IN GOOD FAITH THAT DODGE AND WARRANTY PEOPLE WOULD TAKE CARE OF ISSUES THAT ARE MANUFACTURER RELATED. NOT SO!!

TAILGATE CENTER RACE TRACK LIGHTING COMPLETELY OUT. WATER GETS IN BOTH SIDES OF THE CENTER LIGHT AND NOW JUST YESTERDAY THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY WENT OUT AND DOES NOT ILLUMINATE AT ALL.

ENGINE BEGINS TO MAKE A NOISE AND THE CAR WON'T ACCELERATE, LIGHTS WARNING TO BRAKE START FLASHING WHEN THERE IS NO REASON TO BREAK

MY REAR RACETRACK LIGHTING IS NOT WORKING. WATER HAS GOTTEN INTO THE LIGHT AND NOW HAS GONE COMPLETELY OUT. TRUCK IS GARAGED KEPT AND NEVER BEEN IN ACCIDENT. TRUCK JUST HIT 50K MILES. PLEASE HELP AS MY TAG LIGHTS AREN'T WORKING EITHER

REAR TWILIGHT WHICH WAS REPLACED ONCE (9/17) AS A 'GOODWILL OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY ' REPLACEMENT IS LEAKING AGAIN AND WILL NOT PASS STATE INSPECTION. DEALERSHIP AND WARRANTY COMPANY BOTH REFUSING TO REPLACE AGAIN.

THE CHECK AIR BAG IS ON. UPON TAKING THE VEHICLE TO DODGE. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT STATED THE CAUSE IS SEAT HARNESS FAILURE. DODGE CHECKED THE CODES AND STATED THEY FOUND B0020-13 AND B1C11-13. DODGE STATED THIS NOT A RECALL ISSUE. THEY ORDERED PART NUMBER 68100768AD WIRING : SEAT BACK AND PART NUMBER 5PN14DX9AA HEADREST: ACTIVE HEAD RESTR. ALTHOUGH WITH ALL OF THE AIR BAGS CONCERNS AND DODGE'S PROBLEMS WITH THEM AND RECALLS. THIS REPAIR WILL COST UP TO 900.00. AND WILL HAVE THE VEHICLE IN THE SHOP FOR POTENTIALLY 3 DAYS. DAY ONE FINDING THE ISSUE AND THEN POTENTIALLY 1-2 DAYS AFTER THE PARTS ARE ORDERED AND COME IN. THE LAST STATEMENT DODGE MADE WAS " NEED TO REPLACE HEADREST SEAT HARNESS AND RETEST FOR ANY FURTHER NEEDS."

THE LIGHT ASSEMBLY ON THE LIFTGATE HAS WATER IN IT AND THE LIGHT HAS GONE OUT

WATER IS FILLING UP IN THE BOTTOM OF THE RACE TRACK LIGHTS IN THE REAR. THIS IS APPARENTLY A COMMON DEFECT IN THE DESIGN OF THE CASING THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING.

CENTER REAR TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY HAS SHORT ON RIGHT SIDE. SEVERAL LED BULBS NO LONGER LIGHT UP AFFECTING VEHICLE VISIBILITY. THERE IS NO VISIBLE DAMAGE TO THE LENS.

RACETRACKLIGHT TAILGATE HAS WATER IN IT WHICH BURNT OUT LIGHT. WARRANTY NOT COVERING. MAJOR ISSUE WITH ALL DURANGO'S WITH RACE TRACK TAILGATE LIGHT.

RACE TRACK TAILLIGHT ON REAR DECKLID HAS WATER POOLING IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER OF LIGHT!

WATER AND MOISTURE GET INTO THE REAR LIGHT STRIP AND CAUSES LED LIGHT FAILURE. YOU CANT FIX THE PROBLEM, JUST BUY A NEW LIGHT ASSEMBLY AT $1000 AND PRAY THAT DOESNT GET WATER IN THAT ONE. PROBLEM CAUSES VEHICLE TO FAIL INSPECTION AND POSES A HUGE SAFETY PROBLEM.

BROUGHT MY 2015 DODGE DURANGO IN FOR A STATE INSPECTION. WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A COMPUTER ERROR MESSAGE STATING "LIFTGATE PARK LAMP SHORT". THE SERVICE PERSON STATED THAT THERE WAS WATER IN THE LIGHT, AND THAT I WOULD NEED TO HAVE IT REPLACED TO PASS INSPECTION FOR ROUGHLY $1200. WHEN ASKED HOW THE WATER GOT IN, HE DID NOT KNOW. BECAUSE WATER WAS THE CAUSE OF THE SHORT, IT WAS NOT COVERED BY THE MAXIMUM CARE VEHICLE PROTECTION WARRANTY THAT I PURCHASED WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR. WHEN I GOOGLED THE PROBLEM, I SAW THAT MANY OTHERS WERE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES AND WERE COMPLETING THIS FORM TO HAVE NHTSA LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM WITH WATER LEAKING INTO THE LIGHT.

IN MARCH OF 2019 A POLICEMAN IN MY HOMETOWN STOPPED ME AND TOLD ME MY TAILLIGHT ON MY 2015 DODGE DURANGO WAS OUT. ON FURTHER EXAMINATION THE POLICEMAN AND I DISCOVERED THAT PART OF MY TAIL LIGHT WAS NOT LIT UP AND THAT MY TAIL LIGHT HAS WATER IN IT. WE CAN SEE THE MOISTURE AND THE WATER LINE. I TOOK IT TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHERE I BOUGHT VEHICLE. THEY EXAMINED MY VEHICLE AND TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A BAD DESIGN AND THAT WATER WAS INDEED IN MY TAILLIGHT. THEY FURTHER TOLD ME THAT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT I PURCHASED WHEN I BOUGHT VEHICLE WOULD NOT COVER IT BECAUSE IT WAS WATER INTRUSION. THEY SAID IT WOULD COST $1,300.00 APPROX. TO REPLACE TAILLIGHT. IVE BEEN RESEARCHING FOR THE LAST 3 WEEKS AND FOUND A FORUM THAT HAD 100'S OF COMPLAINTS ON 2015 DODGE DURANGOS THAT HAVE THE SAME ISSUE THAT I HAVE. ONE COMPLAINT EVEN STATED THAT WHILE SHE DROVE HER CAR SHE COULD SMELL BURNING . I'M VERY CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD INDEED START A FIRE. I HAVE MY GRANDCHILDREN WITH ME 75% OF THE TIME WHEN I AM DRIVING THIS VEHICLE THAT IN ITSELF IS VERY DISTRESSING FOR ME.

39,000 MILES. LEFT FRONT TURN SIGNAL WITH CORROSION ON BULB CAUSING IT NOT TO FUNCTION. MULTIPLE LED BULBS BURNED OUT AND REPLACED. NOW REAR TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY LEDS BURNING OUT. ALL VERY EARLY IN LIFE OF THE VEHICLE.

I RECENTLY NOTICED STILL WATER INSIDE MY REAR CENTER TAIL LAMP ON THE LIFT GATE WHILE PARKED BEFORE LEAVING HOME, THAT WOULDN'T LEAVE, AS A RESULT OF THIS A PORTION OF THE LAMP HAD WENT OUT AND NO LONGER WORKED, EVENTUALLY THE ENTIRE LAMP STOPPED WORKING NOW CAUSING A SAFETY CONCERN AS I AM NOW LESS VISIBLE TO THOSE BEHIND ME AND CAUSING ME TO BE TICKETED SEVERAL TIMES FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT BECAUSE OF THE LAMP BEING OUT WHICH IS NOW TURNING THIS INTO A $2000 PLUS PROBLEM. I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH AND HAVE LEARNED THAT THOUSANDS OF OTHER DURANGO OWNERS FROM 2014 AND 2015 ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE AND THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALLED PART. I ALSO HAVE YOUNGER SIBLINGS THAT USE MY TRUCK FROM TIME TO TIME TO TRAVEL TO WORK AND SCHOOL AND A GRANDMOTHER WHO DRIVES MY VEHICLE AT TIMES AND I CAN NO LONGER LET THEM DRIVE MY VEHICLE BECAUSE I DON'T WANT THEM TO DESTROY THEIR DRIVING RECORD WITH CONSTANT TICKETS BECAUSE OF THE LAMP BEING OUT NOR MY GRANDMOTHER OR POSSIBLY GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THE DIFFICULTY OF BEING SEEN FROM BEHIND NOW

LIGHT ON TAILGATE FILLED WITH WATER

REAR HATCH TAIL LIGHT GOT WATER INSIDE OF IT. RAIN WATER. POOR SEAL. NOW PART OF LIGHT IS NOT WORKING. THE DEALERSHIP QUOTED APPROXIMATELY $1200.00 TO REPLACE. ANOTHER $200.00 LABOR. CAN'T JUST REPLACE A BULB. HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE ASSEMBLY. I AM LEARNING THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH DURANGO'S THAT HAVE THIS LIGHT. THIS IS A MANUFACTURE FLAW WITH THESE LIGHT ASSEMBLIES. THEY SHOULD BE RECALLED!

THE REAR "RACETRACK" TAIL LAMP WHICH SPANS THE LIFTGATE FILLS WITH WATER. THIS IS THE SECOND TAIL LAMP ASSEMBLY ON MY VEHICLE. THE FIRST ONE WAS REPLACED BY DODGE UNDER WARRANTY. LESS THAN 1 YEAR LATER, THE REPLACEMENT IS ALSO LEAKING. SEVERAL REPORTS OF WATER IN THE LENS CAUSING ULTIMATE FAILURE OF THE ELECTRONICS AND THE LAMP.

MY RACETRACK TAILLIGHT IN THE BACK OF MY 2015 DODGE DURANGO HAS ACCUMULATED WATER BUILD UP ON BOTH SIDES OF IT AND HAS CAUSED THE LEFT PART OF THE UNIT TO SHORT OUT. IT IS ABSOLUTELY ABSURD THAT CHRYSLER WILL NOT COVER THIS BECAUSE ABOUT HALF THE DURANGOS I SEE ON THE ROAD HAVE THIS AS WELL. IT IS NOTHING MYSELF, OR ANY OTHER OF THE OTHER OWNERS ON THE ROAD HAVE DONE TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN, IT IS A DESIGN FLAW IN THE VEHICLE. I SUGGEST MAYBE ALLOCATING SOME OF THE CHEROKEE AND WRANGLER REVENUE OVER TO PAY FOR THIS IN ORDER TO KEEP CUSTOMERS SAFE CONSIDERING THE UNIT IS $1200.00. THAT'S A PRETTY HEFTY EXPENSE FOR SOMEONE TO HAVE TO INCUR IF THEY DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO BRING IT UPON THEMSELVES. THIS HAPPENED TO THE VEHICLE SHORTLY AFTER I BOUGHT IT. I DON'T NEED TO INCLUDE A PICTURE BECAUSE EVERYONE AT CHRYSLER IS FULLY AWARE OF THE DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM DUE TO HOW MANY PEOPLE SHARE THE SAME CONCERNS. AGAIN, IT'S CRAZY HOW THIS IS NOT COVERED.

FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW, THE BOTTOM RIGHT HAND SECTION OF THE LED 'RACETRACK' TAIL LIGHTS ON THE TRUNK OF MY DURANGO HAS BEEN BURNED OUT. APPARENTLY, THIS IS COMING FROM WATER FILLING UP IN THE LEDS DUE TO WEATHER STRIPPING TO KEEP WATER OUT FAILING TOO EARLY. THIS NORMALLY WOULDN'T BE A HUGE CONCERN SINCE TAIL LIGHTS CAN BE REPLACED, HOWEVER CHRYSLER/DODGE/FIAT HAS MADE IT ENTIRELY TOO EXPENSIVE FOR ANYONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND TO EVEN TRY TO AFFORD A REPLACEMENT. THE LEDS CANNOT BE EASILY REPLACED, THEREFORE YOU HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE TAIL LIGHT/BRAKE LIGHT PORTION ON THE TRUNK. ON TOP OF THAT, THIS PART MUST COME WITH THE BACK UP CAMERA, YOU CAN'T BUY THE PART WITHOUT THE BACK UP CAMERA. THE COST FOR THIS IS 1,085 USD WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY ABSURD, AND THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE THE COST OF LABOR AS WELL. THE BRAKE LIGHTS OF ANY VEHICLE ARE A HUGE SAFETY FUNCTION OF THE VEHICLE, BOTH DURING THE DAY IN DARK FOGGY/RAINY CONDITIONS AS WELL AS ANYTIME AT NIGHT. CHRYSLER/DODGE/FIAT MUST EITHER MAKE THIS INCREDIBLY CHEAP TO REPLACE, OR PUT IN A RECALL TO BE REPLACED AT THE COMPANIES EXPENSE. THIS COULD CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE THAT THE VEHICLES INSURANCE COMPANY MUST PAY FOR, OR EVEN DEATH TO ANY PERSON OR ANIMAL RIDING IN THE VEHICLE IF INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. LUCKY, MY ENTIRE 'RACETRACK' LED TAIL LIGHT SYSTEM HAS NOT COMPLETELY FAILED, YET. KEYWORD: YET. IT'S INEVITABLE, IT WILL HAPPEN THE MORE WATER THAT GETS INTO THE LED SECTION OF THE LIGHT.

WHEN IT RAINS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF WATER POOLS IN THE RACETRACK STYLE TAILIGHT OF THE VEHICLE. IT SUBSEQUENTLY BURNS OUT THE LIGHT IN THE AREA WHERE THE WATER POOLS.

WATER IS ENTERING TAILLIGHT UNIT CAUSING ELECTRONICS TO SHORT. WATER IS ENTERING DUE TO A POORLY DESIGNED SEAL ON THE TOP BACK OF TAILLIGHT.

REAR TAIL LIGHT HOUSING CENTER SECTION IN THE LIFT GATE HAS WATER INTRUSION WHICH HAS CAUSED LED LIGHTS TO SHORT OUT. NOTICED LIGHTS OUT AND WATER IN HOUSING WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED BUT SMELLED THE ORDER OF ELECTRICAL SMOKE WHILE DRIVING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE DURANGO. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING, THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO REED CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (3100 S US-169, ST JOSEPH, MO 64503, (816) 233-9149) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS MOISTURE IN THE TAIL LIGHTS; HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO FIND A FRACTURE IN THE TAIL LIGHT FIXTURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS 2015 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER, THE REAR TAILLAMPS ALLOWED FOR WATER INTRUSION IN THE TAILLAMP HOUSING WHICH CAUSED THE BULBS TO BURN OUT PREMATURELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN OT THE DEALER WALDORF DODGE RAM 2294 CRAIN HWY WALDORF, MD 20601 (240) 754-2990 WHERE IT WAS INSPECTED, NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

ON 1/19/2019, I WENT TO BRAKE WHILE DRIVING MY DODGE DURANGO, AND THE CAR VIOLENTLY SHOOK, MADE A REVVING NOISE, AND ACCELERATED. MY FOOT WAS TO THE FLOOR AND THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. I HIT TWO CARS IN FRONT OF ME, WHICH WAS THE ONLY WAY THE CAR ACTUALLY STOPPED MOVING, AND IT WASN'T UNTIL I TURNED THE CAR COMPLETELY OFF THAT THE NOISE AND SHAKING STOPPED. A CASE WAS OPENED WITH FIAT CHRYSLER CORPORATE OFFICE THE DATE OF THE ACCIDENT. A 3RD PARTY COMPANY WAS HIRED TO INVESTIGATE THE VEHICLE AND PULL DATE OFF OF THE ELECTRONIC DATA RECORD. THAT REPORT WAS FORWARDED TO FCA FOR REVIEW ON 1/26/2019. TO DATE, NO ONE FROM FCA HAS CONTACTED ME REGARDING THE STATUS OF MY CASE. I CALL DAILY ONLY TO BE TOLD I WILL RECEIVE A PHONE CALL FROM SOMEONE, WHICH HAS YET TO HAPPEN. NO NAME, NUMBER, OR CONTACT INFORMATION HAS BEEN GIVEN TO ME. I WAS TOLD A LETTER WAS MAILED OUT TO ME FROM THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT WITH FCA ON 2/6/2019. TO DATE, NO LETTER HAS ARRIVED, AND WHEN I ASKED CORPORATE FOR INFORMATION ON WHO SENT THE LETTER, I AM NOT PROVIDED A NAME OR NUMBER OF ANYONE I CAN VERBALLY SPEAK WITH. I WAS ALSO TOLD SEVERAL VOICEMAIL MESSAGES HAVE BEEN LEFT FOR ME, BUT WHEN THE REPRESENTATIVE WENT TO CONFIRM MY PHONE NUMBER, THEY ADMITTED THEY HAD NO PHONE NUMBER ON FILE FOR ME - SO HOW COULD A VOICEMAIL MESSAGE BE LEFT? THIS ACCIDENT OCCURRED IN FRONT OF AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, DURING SCHOOL DROP OFF. THE OUTCOME COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE, AND THE FACT THAT NO ONE FROM A LARGE CORPORATION IS COMMUNICATING WITH ME IS APPALLING. I HAVE A VEHICLE THAT IS UN-DRIVABLE, AND I AM STILL PAYING A MONTHLY PAYMENT, EVEN THOUGH I CANNOT DRIVE THE CAR. I NEED INFORMATION ON THE STATUS OF MY CASE, AND NO ONE IS PROVIDING IT TO ME.

THE TAIL GATE TAIL LIGHT GETS WATER INSIDE EVERY TIME I WAS MY CAR OR EVERY TIME IT RAINS. THIS CAUSES THE TAIL LIGHT NOT TO BE FULLY VISIBLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TAIL LIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE DUE TO MOISTURE FROM THE RAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DIEHL CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OF ROBINSON (6181 STEUBENVILLE PIKE, MCKEES ROCKS, PA 15136, (412) 722-1800), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED BECAUSE IT EXCEEDED 36,000 MILES. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS A WEATHER ISSUE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.

CENTER REAR TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY COLLECTS WATER AND SHORTS OUT. BULBS NO LONGER LIGHT UP AFFECTING VEHICLE VISIBILITY. THERE IS NO VISIBLE DAMAGE TO THE LENSE.

RACETRACK LIGHT IN BACK OF DURANGO HAS WATER IN IT. PART OF LED LIGHT PANELIS NOW OUT AFTER A GOOD RAIN.

REAR LED TAIL-LIGHT PARTIALLY BURNED OUT DUE TO WATER LEAKING INTO TAIL-LIGHT COVER DUE TO POOR DESIGN OF ASSEMBLY. ENTIRE LED TAIL-LIGHT MUST BE REPLACED, IS COSTLY, AND NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A KNOWN AND CHRONIC PROBLEM AMONGST DODGE DURANGO OWNERS!

THE CLUTCH PEDAL STICKS TO THE FLOOR. HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING. CAN'T ACCELATE OR CHANGE GEARS. NO NOISE OR SMELL OR WARNING PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING. PEDAL CAN ONLY BE MANUALLY LIFTED. NO PRESSURE IN CLUTCH PEDAL ANYMORE.

REAR 'RACETRACK' LED LIGHTING FULL OF WATER FROM CONDENSATION. LIGHTING IS SHORTING OUT AND I AM CONCERNED ABOUT PRICE TO FIX. ALSO IT MAY BE A DANGER TO OTHER DRIVERS AT NIGHT. 27,000 MILES AND ALREADY GETTING WORSE.

THE CENTER LED LIGHT ON MY DURANGO SOMEHOW HAS WATER IN IT; THE WATER ORIGINALLY CAUSED A SHORT ON ONE SIDE THAT DIMMED THE LIGHT. I FIRST NOTICED DECEMBER 2018 WHEN A MOTORIST STOPPED ME AFTER TAKING A PICTURE. AS OF JANUARY 21, 2019 THE LIGHT HAS COMPLETELY WENT OUT DUE TO THE WATER DAMAGE. THIS HAS TO BE SOME SORT OF MANUFACTURER DEFECT AS I AM NOT SURE WHERE THE WATER IS ENTERING IN. ON THE 21ST I WAS PULLED OVER BY A POLICE OFFICER BECAUSE HE SAID THE FLICKING COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. LUCKILY I WAS LEFT OFF WITH A WARNING. PER WESTGATE DODGE HERE IN INDY THE FIX WILL COST MORE THAN $1300 TO CORRECT. I HAVE PROVIDED

THE REAR TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY, MIDDLE PORTION, HAS COLLECTED WATER INSIDE OF IT WHICH COMES IN CONTACT WITH THE TAIL LIGHT LED'S INSIDE CAUSING THEM TO SHORT TO GROUND. THEY BLINK/FLASH ERRATICALLY BUT MOST OF THE TIME ARE NOT ON. ALSO THE LICENSE PLATE LIGHTS ARE AFFECTED BY THIS AND ARE NOT WORKING EITHER. EVEN AFTER LOOSENING THE ASSEMBLY AND DRAINING THE WATER CONDENSATION CAN STILL BE SEEN INSIDE.

WATER IS GETTING INTO THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS THROUGH THE FACTORY SEAM. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE CRACKS ON THE TAIL LIGHT AND WATER IS POOLING UP ON THE INSIDE AND SLOWLY LEAKING OUT OF THE FACTORY SEALS AROUND THE HOUSING. WATER IS CAUSING THE LIGHTS TO SHORT OUT.

"TAKATA RECALL" I PURCHASED A 2015 DODGE DURANGO ON DECEMBER 3 2015 HOWEVER I NOTICE THAT ITS WATER CONDENSE IN THE RACETRACK LIGHT AND ITS A COUPLE OF SPOTS WHERE ITS BLOWED OUT THATS VERY DANGEROUS AND NEEDS IMMEDIATELY ATTENTION..

RAIN WATER GETTING INTO TAILLIGHT ASSEMBLY CAUSING WATER TO POOL INSIDE LIGHT AND CAUSE LEDS TO SHORT AND NO LONGER ILLUMINATE. AND THE COST TO REPLACE THE ASSEMBLY IS OVER $1000.

WATER ENTERING THE REAR LIGHT BAR PLASTIC COVERING AND SHORTING OUT THE LIGHT SYSTEM. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM CAUSING THE LIGHTS TO NOT WORK AND SAFETY ISSUE.

REAR TAILLIGHT ASSEMBLY HAS WATER CAUSED BY A MANUFACTURE DEFECT OF NOT PROPERLY SEALING LIGHT ASSEMBLY. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH LIGHT ASSEMBLY. THIS IS A SAFTEY PROBLEM AND A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED. THIS CAN CAUSE A REAR END ACCIDENT WHICH WILL RESULT IN INJURIES. THE VEHICLE USED BY A LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY'S ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND CAN CAUSE AN INJURY TO A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE DURANGO. UPON INSPECTING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY WAS FILLED WITH WATER. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE BULBS WERE BURNED OUT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JIM BUTLER CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (317 W MAIN ST, BUILDING B, LINN, MO 65051, (573) 298-4377) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TAIL LIGHTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND WERE NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

THE LENSE ON THE CENTER BRAKE LIGHT (RACE TRACK LIGHT), APPARENTLY HAS A DEFECTIVE GASKET, ALLOWING THE BRAKE LIGHTS TO FILL WITH WATER AND CAUSE THEM TO GO OUT. I ONLY HAVE 22,000 MILES ON THIS CAR, IT'S MY BABY! IT WILL BE AWHILE BEFORE I CAN FIX THIS, AS IT WILL BE OVER $1000 TO REPAIR. RIDICULOUS! SAFETY DOESN'T SEEM TO BE MUCH OF A CONCERN FOR DODGE.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS COMING ON FOR EVAP PROBLEM. I DON'T HAVE A GAS CAP. THE DEALERSHIP SUPPOSEDLY FIXED THE ISSUE, 1 WEEK LATER...IT'S ON AGAIN. SEAT INSIDE PACKING IS NO LONGER IN PLACE. DRIVING OVER BUMPS SOUNDS LIKE THE SUSPENSION IS BROKE.

WATER IS IN THE RACETRACK TAIL LIGHT ON BOTH SIDES, I NOTICED THE SOUND OF WATER MOVING WHILE DRIVING, AND ITS WATER IN MY TAIL LIGHT. THE LIGHT ARE OUT AT THE BOTTOM BECAUSE OF THIS

FUEL DOOR WILL NOT OPEN DEPRESSING DOOR SWITCH INTERIORLY OR EMERGENCY RELEASE SWITCH IN CARGO COMPARTMENT. FUEL DOOR HAD TO BE PRIED OPEN ORDER TO REFILL GAS TANK.

WATER IN THE RACETRACK TAILLIGHT CAUSED BURNT OUT LED LIGHTS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WATER LEAKED INSIDE THE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY, WHICH CAUSED THE TAIL LIGHTS TO MALFUNCTION. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,000.
