2011 Dodge Durango problems

“The contact owns a 2011 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while reversing into a parking space, the vehicle shut off and failed to restart. The vehicle was towed to a dealer, where the fuel pump relay was replaced under NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V813000 (Electrical System); however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was then towed to an independent mechanic, who replaced the fuel pump; however, the failure persisted. The mechanic informed the contact that power was reaching the relay but not exiting the relay, and the contact was referred to the dealer for assistance. The dealer informed the contact that the vehicle was previously repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V530000 (Electrical System) by another dealer who incorrectly rewired the vehicle. The dealer informed the contact that a diagnostic fee was required to perform a diagnostic test. The contact informed the dealer that the vehicle had been operable until recently. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 240,000.”

“The contact owns a 2011 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was an engine misfire with a ticking sound coming from the engine.

The vehicle was scheduled to be repaired by the dealer. The contact stated that the failure persisted after a previous engine repair and that the failure persisted.

The manufacturer was made aware of the failure via the telephone. The contact was referred to the dealer for assistance. The approximate failure mileage was 68,000.”

“My car has had 2 repairs for fuel pump relay issues. 2014 and 2020. recently, I noticed while driving my car will stall while accelerating on the highway. I had to pull over into emergency lane 3 times during 1 trip before, because the car stalled while driving. Just recently I noticed and took videos/pictures of the car going 40 mph but the RPM moving sporadically between 0-7000. It has always felt like a fuel pump issue but dodge servicers does not know whats going on. There was never a warning light until it stalled recently. Red lightning bolt popped up. I have pictures if that also.”

“Had an oil check in which they checked the breaks. Reported breaks as a 3. They recommended new brake pads. I only put 6000 miles on the car since I purchased it. It has 24747 miles and needs new rear brakes. I spoke to the service rep Jake and he could not do anything to help with repair. Feel like there is a problem with rear brakes going bad”

“While driving without notice transmission light flashes and the 2011 Dodge Durango will not shift out of gear. I have had this problem in the past and told dealer but they always say they have no codes and on test drive cant confirm the issue. The first time it happened was around the 50 000 mile mark I thought nothing of it back then as I restarted the car it went away. Over the years it go worst to the point that it would happen at least once or multiple times during my daily commute it I told the dealership about it but no codes and they said on a test run no problems. I stopped driving the car in 2019 because it was too dangerous to drive daily especially in traffic due to the car unable to shift gears left me stranded in the middle of the freeway many times waiting to restart car and car would behave normal until the transmission light comes on where i have to power off durango and restart where ever it happens freeway stop signs lights or where ever it decides to happen. I want to get this car running again but dont have the money to fix an issue that i had when it was still covered by the extended warranty and now i have to pay out of pocket because im…”

“I was in a blizzard a few days ago on the freeway & got caught in a ditch, but thankfully got out. I wasn’t going that fast & couldn’t due to not being able to see through the snow well so I can drive safely. In order not to crash because there were semi trucks around, I had to whip the steering wheel along with the weight of the car on the snow in order not to crash due to the car being big & it was sliding pretty heavy & somehow a couple things went out of wack after turning my steering wheel. Definitely a scary experience. It is very hard to turn out of no where, as well it’s rare at times when it turns just a little smoothly. Also, once when first pulling off, it makes a consecutive clicking noise coming from or by the tires. When I give it acceleration while turning, as well, it makes that clicking sound. Then there’s just something about the engine or the drive train that sounds off. I’m still learning as I go about fixing what needs to be done.”
