    The spare tire winch on my vehicle failed and the spare tire fell to the pavement. In my case i was fortunate to be in a parking lot when it happened and there was no accident. If this had happened on the highway an accident would have almost surely resulted. The spare tire on these vehicles is quite large and heavy and could cause a large number of possible outcomes if hit at highway speeds. The spare tire winch…

    Hit a severe bump in road which broke the steel cable that holds the spare tire under the car body. Cable was likely corroded. Tire discharged from under the vehicle, struck pavement, and bounced 15-20 feet into the air repeatedly nearly striking the vehicle following me. Luckily tire ended up in ditch before causing accident. Retaining clamp is lost. Suspect the potential for this situation exists with any durango…

    I noticed my tires were not wearing evenly and i felt and heard a "clunk" noise every time i back out of my parking spot at work. The dealership inspected and said that the upper and lower ball joints of the right and left wheels of my 2003 dodge durango must be replaced. I see there are recalls for all previous year durangos but not the 2003??? The dealership refused to pay for my replacement. I replaced the left…

    When driving my 2003 durango at times it feels like the front wheels are locking up and the truck begins shaking badly. I have had it in the dealership and they say they can't find anything wrong. I also have been hearing strange noise from the front right right tire well. Also, my glovebox started hanging down and when i asked the dealership to fix it they charged me and told me that the warranty would not cover…

    The front tire on my dodge durango is messed up. It gets stuck sometimes when i'm trying to turn. The shop that i took it to said that the ball joint in the front tire is bad. They told me that they have heard of a lot of durangos that were having the same problems. They also said that my tires are being worn down because of the turn of the wheel. I had to buy a whole new set of tires also. It was very expensive for…
