2009 Dodge Durango problems

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 DODGE DURANGO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE WHILE PARKED. THE CONTACT OPENED THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. THE ENTIRE DOOR PANEL WAS MELTED. THE CONTACT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THE MANUFACTURER SENT AN INDEPENDENT INSPECTOR TO PERFORM A BRIEF INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE. THE INSPECTOR STATED THAT THE FIRE UNDOUBTEDLY ORIGINATED FROM THE DRIVER'S SEAT MOTOR CONTROL SWITCH, WHICH MOVES THE SEAT. THE CHRYSLER ENGINEERS REVIEWED THE INSPECTOR'S REPORT AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT REPAIR THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE YEAR OF THE VEHICLE AND THE NUMBER OF YEARS THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 145,000.”

“I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR A RECALL ON MY DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG. BEFORE THEY STARTED TO DO THE WORK THEY SAID THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO MY CAR BECAUSE IT WAS AN OLDER MODEL. I AM VERY UPSET THAT I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR SAFETY REASONS AND THEY COULD DAMAGE MY CAR IN THE PROCESS! HOW UNFAIR ON THE PART OF THE CONSUMER TO MAKE THEM PAY FOR POSSIBLE DAMAGE WHEN THEY ARE TAKING THEIR CAR IN FOR SAFETY REASONS! AND DODGE DOESN'T BELIEVE IN THE INTEGRITY OF THEIR OWN PRODUCT AT THE SAME TIME! THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY THE NHTSA!”
