The center tail light in the dodge durango's with the racetrack set up have a leaking problem where water enters through posing a risk to the electrical system and inside of the vehicle. This basically happens whether the vehicle is in motion or parked. When it rains - water enters through the defectively sealed tail light.

Water is inside the lift-gate race track lighting assembly. Warranty does not cover "water intrusion" of which this is. Next month my vehicle will be 2 years old so if i don't it fixed at a cost of $1,100 the lights will soon be moldy, shorted out or causing the liftgate to rust out. This should be a warranty fix regardless of age or miles.

The passenger side headlight connection burnt and melted the connection socket where the bulb connects. Had the same problem with my 2011 dodge charger. The wiring harness on the charger was part of a recall. The 2015 durango harness is not on a recall, yet. It's the same part, with the same problem.

However, that caused problems saying the right blinker is…

Bought a 2015 durango in may 2015 have had it 45days and it has been in the service dept at the dealership more than with me. It started with a fuel sensor, then the sunroof wouldn't close, it fried the usb port, the air bag warning light keeps going on & off while driving, now the seat nor steering wheel will move at all or if you does move by some miracle the seat decides to reposition itself while you are driving.
