We had an exhaust leak, and we didn't think that it was a big deal maybe a broken seal. i noticed the leak when i used my remote start in the morning.turns out the exhaust manifold warped and broke bolts! this could have caused some serious safety issue if it hadn't been looked into. i looked at other dodge durango owner sites and this seems to be a common problem amongst owners of this make and model.

During summer 2017, 5.7l hemi started to make a noticeable clicking noise at 70,000 miles although it had been meticulously maintained. in sept 2017 at 72,000 the engine failed with a grinded camshaft due to a roller/lifter failure. the engine had to be replaced out of warranty by specialty hemi engien shop pro engines llc in elon, nc. today, i am realizing that this was not a random occurrence. i have found many testimonies online and in person of 5.7l hemi owners having experienced similar dramatic and costly failures of their engine camshaft due roller / lifter failure as explained clearly for example in these videos: here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inpuz3pcha0), here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lg5qx9qojgo) or here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2cx11tutic) luckily this engine failure did not cause injury as it failed while vehicle was parked, but i concur that it could have if the failure at happened at the wrong moment and i think that dodge is well aware of this problem and that it is trying to hide it i concur that the camshaft failure is an engineering issue that dodge should correct and fix under extended warranty as replacing the engine was very expansive and is totally outrageous for a less than 6 years old and 72,000 miles perfectly maintained truck. i wish that nhtsa receives enough complains to bolster consumers in receiving technical and financial help from the manuacturer best, [xxx] redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *cc
The transmission cooler was found to be leaking severely. luckily noticed before overheating and damage to the transmission.
The failed tipm is dangerous and could leave you stranded from astalled engine. the failed alternator may have been a by product of the faulty tipm. this part should be part of a recall.
The front main crank seal began to leak and eject oil all over the front of the engine compartment. luckily discovered before damage to the engine.
We had a recall fixed on the fuel pump relay and since then the vehicle stalls while driving.didn't do that before the work
As i turned right, the vehicle once again stalled. the engine turned off, but all the electrical systems continued to work. i placed my foot on the gas to demonstrate that it would not move while the vehicle was still in drive. then i did the same with the break to demonstrate that it wouldn't respond. i put the vehicle in park with my foot on the brake and the vehicle restarted. my children were in the vehicle and my oldest son recorded until we reached the intended stopping point. the mileage on the vehicle was 94,624. the vehicle had a trigger box / flight recorder, but it quit functioning the previous week when the car also stopped last week.
My battery light came on. within minutes all the other lights on my dashboard came on, my air starting blowing hot and then it started to stall. luckily i was on a small road and was able to coast off onto the grass. the car was dead and smoke was pouring from the alternator. i went and bought a new battery and alternator. within in 2 minutes of installing both, my car did the same exact thing. i had to have it towed to the dealership. i was told it was the alternator. i explained that i had already replaced it and think it could be more severe. they told me they would replace the alternator with labor i'm looking at $1200. that's not including if that doesn't fix the issue. they sais it could have fried my (pcm) power control module which could cost me at least $1000 more plus labor. how is it they aren't recalling the 2012 durango with 180 amp alternator but all the others? this car is only 5 years old, i shouldn't have had to replace the alternator going on 3 times now. i don't feel safe driving my son in this car anymore. i've seen enough complaints saying this caused accidents since the car just dies while driving.
Our dodge durango stalled as i was turning left. when i went to push the trigger box, it did not work and will not come back on. i restarted the car and waited, but the trigger box no longer works. this is of course strange because once again, nothing can be recorded. the key fob battery is brand new and the push button was in use. i have a video for documentation. the mileage is 94,017. we have recorded via trigger box daily jerks with the durango and now the major issue we needed documentation of can't be captured because the device no longer operates.
I came to a stop at a stop light to turn right and the vehicle stalled. i didn't have time to record it because there were cars coming down the exit behind me. i immediately kept my foot on the brake and placed the vehicle in park and restarted it. the mileage is at 93,322. the flight recorder the dealership placed on the vehicle didn't work so there was nothing to capture.
Upon arriving home, a strong odor of electrical burning was present coming from the engine compartment. the electrical light came on and smoke was visible coming from the engine compartment. the car was parked in the garage and was immediately turned off. similar to recall p60; however our car was not included in the recall because of a different alternator and slightly different engine type.

The vehicle stalls while driving (very intermittently). does not log any engine codes and mainly happens on deceleration. but has happened at highway speeds when exiting the freeway and also at low speeds when coming to a stop sign. when the engine stalls you loose power steering and brakes but all of the electronics keep working radio, lights, etc... i have called chrysler care opened a case, which they assisted in scheduling an appointment for the vehicle at the local dodge dealer. the case was closed by chrysler since the dealership could not duplicate the problem. we bought this vehicle with 50,000 miles on it and it now has 76,000 and has stalled on us several times i would say (12) over the 26,000 miles we have pout on it. if you google this complaint/problem with the 2011/2012 durango it is widely known and a very serious issue to be ignoring, someone is going to be killed because of this.
My dodge durando 2012 have to many problems my car stop withn is running several times a take to dealer the change the fuel pump and the nex day have enegine ligth take back to dealer now the said is catalyst , and arent but my car 2012 i believe is not to old to have to many problems i believe it's all factory default.
Around 7:20 am i had just exited a ramp to go beneath the underpass to turn left. the mileage change was 60 mph to 35 mph. before the car could come to a complete stop applied by brakes, it stalled. there were other vehicles behind us who had to go around. my children were with me and one recorded to show that the vehicle was still in drive and that the brake and the gas would not receive a response from the car. this is the third day in a row that vehicle has stalled since we received in back from the dealership.
I was in the process of turning left at an intersection. as i turned the wheel locked up and the car slowed down and eventually stopped. i had to veer to the right as much as i could. i put the car in park and when i started it again, it shook. i proceeded to drive home. due to it being night and where i was positioned, i couldn't record the issue, but i did document the mileage.
I was in line to turn left under the underpass. when i pressed the gas, the vehicle would not move. the wheel locked up as i tried to move forward. i had to turn on my emergency lights and signal other to go around on the right because no one could pass me on the left. i put the car in park and restarted it. there was no dashboard light to indicate that anything was wrong. my son was able to record and show that the vehicle was still in drive and not moving. i contacted the area manager to ask if this known, unsafe vehicle could be bought back at the highest nada value. his response was, 'i'm not offering a repurchase.' he shared that he would get another technician personally involved. we just received the car from the shop on wednesday, january 25, 2017 after the entire tipm was replaced and it stopped again! *tr
