    Just bought this vehicle, the abs and brake light is on, contacted seller and he stated it was not on when he sold it to me. I took to auto zone for them to run the needed scan on it. It showed rear wheel sensor. So, i took it to my mechanic. He then ran 3 different code scans on it and it came up with nothing. So, unfortunately he can't fix it without a code. Unless i want to thro more money into it just to start…

There was no abnormal function of the vehicle before each incident. Power assist to steering and brakes were also lost. Each time it was in dry, sunny weather with the temperature between 60 and 80 degrees fahrenheit. Each…

    Abs parking brake light on. No code comes through scanner. Transmission drags and shifts improperly throughout. During slippery snow conditions not able to brake with abs is very dangerous for my family and others on the road. There are many reviews regarding this issue with the dodge durango and this should be a very important matter due to all the dodge durangoso on the road. I have been to a couple mechanics that…

    The brake caliper bolts pull out of the spindle. When driving down the road there was a grinding sound coming from the front wheel, upon further inspection i found that the pins holding the caliper on the spindle has pulled the threads out. After replacing it with an oversize caliper pin the threads pulled again. *tr

    Electrical problem just shuts the whole electrical system down "while i'm driving", at any speed...doesn't matter the temperature, it happens on any day, and at random. Major safety issue, brakes and steering become unusable. Just missed rear ending a vehicle the other day which got me to have to write this. I have to remove electrical terminal from post for 30 seconds, put back on terminal post, then hopefully it…

    I was driving about 25 miles per hour and everything on the system stopped. The steering stopped working, the brakes stopped working and the car turned off. It tends to happen on bumpy roads. This has happened multiple times in my 1999 dodge durango during the past year. I think it might be related to the ignition problem affecting other chrysler products. The durango was not involved in that recall, but it seems as…

    On multiple occasions, beginning two months after we bought the vehicle (used), engine would die for no reason. Loss of power steering and power brakes. Would turn over, but not restart. After waiting between 10-30 minutes, vehicle would restart. Happens at slow speeds, medium speeds and expressway speeds. Inconvenient at slow speeds, very dangerous at highway speeds. Sounds similar to other complaints regarding…
