Several months ago, i took my 1999 dodge durango in for a "check engine" light malfunction. The dealer informed me that the speed sensor was bad, and would need to be replaced. Additionally, they also informed me that the inner tie rod ends were worn and would also need replacement. I was extremely shocked to hear this. At less than 38000 miles, this suv should not be experiencing problems with such a major…

Three windows on my 99 dodge durango have failed. Only the drivers side window still works. This is odd because it's the one which is used the most by far. I find it highly unusual that all three of the other window motors have failed. I believe there must be a defect in the window motors on my vehicle. Please let me know if this problem has been reported to the manufacturer and if dodge has agreed to replace these…
