2000 Dodge Durango power train problems

“One morning I was taking my 9-year-old daughter to school and our truck just stalled while I was driving. Thank Allah that there was no heavy traffic and no one got hurt. That incident has my daughter scared. I took it to the mechanic they read the diagnostic fixed what codes came up and still my truck is not operating properly. The truck still stalls while driving the mechanic has informed me. I have had my IAC, MAP sensor, TPS, ignition coil, distributor, and canister purge valve replaced.”

“THE VEHICLE STARTED MAKING A LOUD HUMMING NOISE IN THE REAR END COMING FROM THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL AT AROUND 30 MPH, AND GETS LOUD WHILE INCREASING SPEED.
