Problems with 2006 Dodge Durango ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

My vehicle started an electrical problem. it's switching my tires from all wheel drive to either 4low or 4lock while i'm driving and i can't hardly get my vehicle to turn while driving when it does this. i had my engine on and in park and heard the noise from underneath. it's the same exact noise that's made when i switch from awd to either 4low or 4wd. this issue is occurring while i'm driving and i feel it mainly when i'm making a turn.

Transfer case can be heard engaging even when vehicle is locked and unoccupied. engaging is sometimes triggered by the remote when locking/unlocking doors. 4 lo light started to flash then my back wheels locked up when i was driving 70 mph on the bypass with children in the truck. it is a miracle we didn't roll over, but another truck was forced off of the road while i used two lanes to try to control the durango. i took the truck to the dealer and no one could find anything wrong with it (no active code)... it drove fine for a few days then the srvc 4x4 light came on and the truck switched into neutral while trying to cross a street... i couldn't move in the middle of a busy intersection. towed the truck to the shop. shop stated they didn't know what to fix. still no active code, truck seems fine. i drove it a few more days and now it has slipped into a lower gear. cannot travel over 35 mph.. parking, reverse and tight turns are very difficult. my take off speed is nearly nonexistent. truck shifted back into neutral on its own as i was making a right hand turn. i shut off and restarted the truck three times. all three times it sounded like a stun gun sparking behind my dash and it lit up with a white light from inside. the instrument panel cluster has failed. recall g07: instrument panel cluster: known to overheat and catch fire. the recall was performed on my truck in 2007, there was no warranty on the replacement part. dealership will not help. i am so sorry i bought this truck. please... why is chrysler only responsible for fixing a recall one time/vehicle? they know it will fail again. it did, has and will continue to fail. numerous owners have the same problem... replacing transfer cases, cpu modules and their problems do not go away because their problem is a difficult to diagnose recalled instrument panel cluster that will never code and tell on itself.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. the contact stated that the battery failed and was replaced. afterwards, the tire pressure and cargo indicators illuminated. the vehicle was towed to a local dealer (perry chrysler dodge jeep ram, located at 2340 national city blvd national city, ca 91950 888-707-2601) where it was informed that the codes needed to be reset. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified. the failure mileage was 123,000.

Awd 5.7 hemi, the 4lo blinking while driving on both highway and city street and when i unlock my doors you could hear something engauging when the vehical was off. the 4lo light flashes and you can hear it switch under the car even when it is off. when, i unlock my doors you can hear it again.

My dash panel lights do not work. there was a recall on other models of my year but my vin was included. this needs to bee looked at.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. when the key was placed in the ignition, it became stuck and would not turn over. the contact had a lock smith apply force to the area and the vehicle was able to start. the vehicle was not diagnosed by a dealer. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and indicated there were no recalls to address the failure. the contact was uncertain if the failure would recur. the failure mileage was not available.

The traction light and service 4wd lights stay on, you can hear the 4wd kicking in and out when the car is sitting the driveway. dodge acts like they have no idea what is causing this problem. you can google the symptoms and everybody that has a 04 to 06 dodge is having the same issue. this should be something covered under a recall, there is to many people having the same issues. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign numbers: 07v092000 (electrical system), 15v313000 (air bags), and 16v352000 (air bags); however, the parts to do the repairs were unavailable. the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the manufacturer was made aware of the issue. the contact had not experienced a failure.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. after the vehicle was repaired per nhtsa campaign number: 15v313000 (air bags), the vehicle failed to lock electronically. the vehicle was taken back to a dealer where it was diagnosed that some numbers were erased when the previous recall repair was performed. the dealer also stated that the key could not be reset because it was not a pair. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 280,000.

Recall # 07v092000 there is a recall for 2006 durango but my vin number isnt one listed. however it is having the exact same issue. i think that this that this in number got left out of the recall. *tr

Vehicle has stalled several times in the middle of the road as well as not starting at irregular moments. i have taken it to the dodge dealership and auto repair shop. each time to have something different fixed, first time it was battery and leads, next it was alternator, then new belt , and after each fix the problem would come back, finally an honest mechanic explained that i had to remove leads to battery for 5 minutes before car could crank again. this makes no sense. he checked cam sensor and crankshaft sensor - all good too. this has been a problem for over two years. the worst time was when i was not principal city street at rush hour with 3 children in the vehicle. of course, i was more worried about getting the children out of the stalled vehicle and safely to the side of the street before pushing the vehicle to a nearby dodge dealership. it seems older dodge durangos like mine from 2006 have this come problem. why hasn't a source to this problem been identified and a manufacturer recall solution been provided? twice i have had the vehicle in a dodge dealership and new expenses for different things were prescribed, and none fixed the problem. must the public wait until some dies on the road when this problem which leads to stalled vehicles have more accidents and then deaths?

My wife was driving the vehicle on a country road about 35 mph when the engine died and she had no power steering or brakes and had to drift to the side of the road. when she tried to restart the car the dash lights would light but the starter would not crank the engine. shop says the computer has failed. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. while driving at approximately 45 mph, smoke appeared from the dash panel. the contact pulled over, turned the ignition to the off position, and allowed the vehicle to cool down before restarting the engine. the vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the recall needed to be performed. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the issue and stated that the vin was included in nhtsa campaign number: 07v092000 (electrical system); however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the failure mileage was approximately 86,000. parts distribution disconnect.

While vehicle is parked there is a noise from transmission switching in and out of all wheel drive and switching back to 4 wheel drive by itself. engine is not running. this happens when parked only so far. i'm afraid could switch during driving. it has happened also when hitting the unlock button on the key fob. i originally thought another car was having trouble starting beside my truck. i soon realized it was my vehicle making this noise issue?

Since july 2015 my durango has been stalling. whether i am turning, stopped at a light it turns off, but turns back on. it has been pulling, acts like it wants to turn off while i am driving, like i am losing power. alternator has been replaced, throttle body, factory spark plugs have been installed and several oil changes. no one can seem to fix the problem. i have had several mechanics look at it and they tell me it is one thing and fix it and the problem continues. another tells me something else and fix it and it continues.

On 6/14/2015 i was about to back my trailer into my yard, when my gear shift column selector locked in park. i depressed the brake pedal and it would not budge. additionally, my brake lights are no longer working. prior to all of these problems i had to replace my ignition for it was locking and would not turn to the on position or accessories position. it cost me $400 dollars for a new ignition to be installed by the dealer and now i have worse problems than before. so i began researching and here is my findings: 1) safetyrecall g28 -ignition/park shift interlock in 2001 and 2002 models for many vehicles which included the durango. 2) the brake transmission shift interlock connector has malfunctioned will not allow the shifter to move. so if the dealer knows about these recalls why didn't they fix them free of charge.

No crank to my engine, security system just locked the car up. been told to drive the car to dealership for them to fix it. it cant be done with the dealer because i refuse to take my car to the dealership. after reviewing everything possible i am quite frustrated with the fact that i know it is more than likely something to do with my transponder. i have never really had any other problems with this car, other than normal wear and tear issues. this is something that i see all too common across the internet and yet dodge is not answering the questions nor trying to fix it for the consumer. this is why i will never purchase another dodge car or truck again. *tr

1] engine stalls out during stops, turning, and reversing. 2] ignition will not turn to on position occasionally. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. the contact stated that the vehicle failed to start after inserting the key into the ignition switch. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified. the failure mileage was unknown.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. the contact stated that the vehicle stalled intermittently on numerous occasions. the contact indicated that whenever the vehicle went over a bump on the road, the engine would stall. the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer. the technician diagnosed that the computer and the ignition switch needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 139,835.

While driving at night i tried to use my brights, but the windshield wipers would keep coming on instead. when the brights did come on then they wouldn't turn off. there are also times when i use the left turn signal that the right signal would come on and the two signals would flicker back and forth. *tr

Ignition switch locks up frequently. vehicle stalls out during stops, turns and backing up.

Unfortunately have had problems with the durango from the first week of purchase in 2006. the current issue and is very scary while driving is the 4 lo light will quickly flash rapidly for several flashes and then stops. the car will hesitate and seems to become engaged in 4 lo all on its own. it also makes a noise when unlocking vehicle that sounds like something under the vehicle is moving. it has be doing this more frequently. concerned for my safety and there is no warning or control. also when this occurs the steering is affected. in a parking lot recently i was almost rear ended because i was trying to make a sharp left turn and the vehicle just locked up completely and even when trying to accelerate it would not move. i have had many times taken this vehicle to the dealership for "instrument panel" recalls. it really seems that this car has serious safety concerns as this again seems to be electrical in nature and potentially could be fatal if driving and having complete lose of control. i have been concerned about this and also noted that many other durango owners have the same problem. i would like for dodge to be responsible for all of the issues with this vehicle and the repeated recalls and repairs that do not seem to help this vehicle. this is a serious issue and hope that a recall will be done before there are increased accidents or worse due to the poor quality and safety of these vehicles. *tr

Transmission shifts by itself into 4wd. this happens while driving, and when the car is sitting unattended, with the ignition off. the transfer case makes an audible noise, then the wheels become very hard to turn while driving. this could easily result in a loss of control of the vehicle. *tr

Upon first purchasing at a dealership the purchase was as a used vehicle, so no warranty is or was in place. a few months later when filling the tank at a gas station the first incident of propulsion of gasoline forcing out of the tank, first happened. then a couple of times when trying to start the vehicle the motor would not start. using an obd to check codes there was no error codes but still ended up clearing it anyways which allowed the vehicle to start (which means its the computer). now, the front passenger window is down and will not go back up, checked the motor and the motor for the window is fine, but checking the switch it would only unlock door, not allow lock and absolutely no window control at all from either the passenger door switch or driver side switch. when looking at the switches turns out that the circuit boards are not soldered. the only way to get any of the problems fixed for anyone now would be for a recall, because the year being 2014 no warranty will cover any problems that i or anyone else is facing! *tr

This is the third time this has happened while i was driving. the air bag lights will come on & off while driving. (both the passenger & driver sides lights seemed to alternate.) this time also the 4 wheel lock light blinked on & off during the 50 mile trip going 70 mph. when i turned on my wipers there was a chime/ding. once when i rolled down the window the wipers came one. another trip two months ago when the airbag light was acting up & i turned on my blinker to change lanes the wipers came on. i also just realized that the door locks no longer unlock when i turn the vehicle off. i have to manually do it now. also it used to automatically lock the doors when i put the vehicle in drive and that has been acting up periodically. the icing on the cake was yesterday when i went to pull into a parking spot and the vehicle completely shut off and all the warning lights on the dash illuminated, i just took it to briggs dodge in topeka, ks and they cannot duplicate these issues and show nothing when they hooked it up. they told me that dodge has a "star case" on file and that states that drivers are causing these problems to occur. (i totally disagree& think this is a cop out) they are telling me i generate too much static electricity! i find this very hard to believe. i am very discouraged and frustrated. i guess when someone is killed in an accident from one of these failing, then maybe they will own up to the problems and fix them. *tr

I have an 06 durango with out the chip key, i stick my key into the ignition to start it but it won't turn as if it's the wrong key or the steering wheel lock is enabled. it happened more twice a day over the last week it happens after every third time i turn on my truck but with a little giggling of the key and steering wheel it went. then last night at 6:30am i stop by moms house to get me a coffee on my way home.. get back to my truck and the key just wouldn't turn my ignition... nothing worked, giggle the key or reefing on the steering wheel... finally after a little over an hour of trying i finally managed to turn the ignition after jamming the key in there pretty hard a few times... anyways i managed to get home since i was still bout half hour away at the time.. *tr

Approximately during summer of 2013, upon starting engine, the ignition would "stick" when key was turned forward. durango would have to be turned off and key taken out of ignition switch to try it again. then, upon shifting into reverse and backing up, the vehicle would come to an abrupt halt and be immovable for a time, usually until putting into park and re-starting vehicle. this is when the malfunction indicator light came on. we had to have vehicle towed at which time the wheels were locked in place, causing black skid marks from its point of tow to tow truck. the auto shop replaced the emergency brake which was "stuck or locked in position". malfunction indicator light went off temporarily. it came back on again in august, 2014. took to auto shop to diagnose. after 677.74 dollars in repairs, light still remains on. *tr

The dash board lights/ warning lights go off and on, and the odometer and rpm gauges bounce from zero to like 5000 rpm while driving. the ac and radio and dvd and navigation all shut off and on also while driving. i took it to crown motors on june 21 and had a diagnostic tests ran and nothing came up all was fine. they told me to bring it back in when it did it and to leave it run when i go inside to let them know. i took back down there on june 24 as it was doing it all again. they immediately took it back to the shop and stated you definitely have something wrong. they told after an hour that they could only get the reading up to the ecm and anything after that it is not showing up that it is dead. they called the lead engineer at dodge to try and find a solution. i talked to them on june 25 and still no answer. they told me they had to put $10 in gas and was going to charge that to me as they lost the signal to diagnostic sue to turning the vehicle off. they drove around four different times to try and reestablish the problem and has not happened. i called them today june 27,2013 and told i could come and pick up the vehicle as they can not get the vehicle to do the problems again to reestablish the connections. they also said if it happens again to just bring it back over so they can reestablish the connection for the problems. i know that there has been recalls for the electrical system on these vehicles. they dealer told they were all closed out and my vehicle was not one of them. still have not resolve the problems with my 2006 durango. i do not feel comfortable driving my family around in it due to a possible fire like some have had or the engine shutting off going down the highway. *tr

My vehicle says svc 4wd then goes into 4lo & 4lock without me touching it. it locks up & switches on its own while im driving. switches into 4wd while it is parked & the truck is off. when u use the unlock remote it switches it also. i don't know what is causing this & the mechanic says no codes show up even when the svc 4wd light is on. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. the contact stated that the lights in the instrument panel and the radio failed to operate sporadically. the contact stated that once the failure occured, the seat belt warning light illuminated and did not shut off until the vehicle was turned off. the failure recurred on various occasions. the contact mentioned that the instrument cluster was previously repaired in 2007. the vehicle was taken to the dealer. the technician verified that the instrument cluster was faulty. the failure mileage was 80,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. the contact stated that while activating the turn signals, the hazard lights would activate instead. the contact stated that the failure was intermittent. the contact also mentioned that on multiple occasions while driving at various speeds, the vehicle would suddenly stall. in addition, while attempting to stop the vehicle by depressing the brake pedal, the brakes had malfunctioned increasing the stopping distant needed to stop the vehicle. also, when the vehicle was in park, the vehicle would roll away. the dealer repaired the brakes but the failure recurred. the manufacturer was not notified. the failure mileage was 80,000.

I have a 2006 dodge durango, bought it used about 4 years ago. about a year and half ago, approximately march of 2013, the vehicle started to stall while driving. it happened at all speeds and after it happening multiple times we figured out that it happened when it was wet/raining out. this is extremely scary and dangerous when going 70mph on the highway...to have your vehicle jerk numerous times and then completely shutoff (aka no power at all!). we have spent a few thousand dollars since spring of 2013 trying to fix the issue. we worked closely with our dealer to figure out the exact problem...figured out it was electrical (possibly when the windshield wiper are used...)but that was about as far as we got. some of the things they found and/or fixed or replaced are as follows: wiring that was frayed, re-ground numerous wires, replaced a handful of sensors, resealed connections between electrical components and main module (as well as resealed the boxes themselves since water was found in them), replaced the electrical module ($2k), and replaced entire electrical box(which included having to re-wire)...found a used one since brand new would have been $1200! . i have recently seen that there was a petition to the government to investigate (and hopefully recall) vehicles that have situations similar to what i have described above but they reference vehicles manufactured 2007 and forward but our 2006 is having the same issues!! since it has been to the dealer last (less than a month ago) we have not had the problem but there was a stretch over the winter where it didn't happen at all either so i am not convinced it is fixed...it seems the dealer mechanic is about out of ideas and so are we... *tr

As i was exiting a highway, my 2006 dodge durango suddenly stalled out. the engine light came on after it stalled. i lost control of steering and was unable to brake. i nearly crashed into the car in front of me, and was barely able to turn the steering wheel enough to run into the curb to stop my vehicle! i was not able to re-start it and had to be towed. while waiting for police to arrive, i was nearly rear-ended multiple times. it was towed to a shop and the mechanic was able to start it up with no problem the next morning. he checked everything, and ran all diagnostic tests - all came back showing no problems. there is clearly a problem - and there are man, many, many complaints about it all over the internet. if i had been on the highway when this happened, i could have been in a very serious accident and could have been killed, or killed someone else, since i lost complete control of the vehicle and was unable to steer or brake. is it going to take a fatality before this is recalled and fixed?????? i am scared to death to drive it now! *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. the contact stated that the instrument panel lighting would flash intermittently. the vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnosis where the technician stated that the front control module would need to be replaced. additionally, the contact stated that while driving approximately 10 mph when the rpm reading increased and the vehicle became hesitant upon acceleration. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 100,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. the contact stated that the engine warning light illuminated. the instrument panel lighting also illuminated while the engine was shut off and the vehicle was unoccupied. the fuel and temperature gauge reading began fluctuating, the horn began to sound independently and the exterior lighting illuminated. the vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnosis. the technician reset the check engine light but the light continued to illuminate. the technician stated that the power train module would have to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired but the failure continued after the replacement of the part. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 72,000. *tr

We were driving our 2006 dodge durango for about 5 minutes when all of a sudden the dash board lights started flashing. my husband was able to veer off the road on a side street and coast down into a parking lot. by this point the car was completely unresponsive. smoke started to come out of the vehicle vents on the dashboard. we thought maybe a part broke at first. my husband opened the hood and there was no visible fires and not a lot of smoke. smoke started coming more and more quickly out of the vents. we got our 3 children out of the car. by this point smoke was billowing out. my husband ran into a building and called for help. the business gave us a fire extinguisher and called the fire department. as my husband ran back to the durango flames he saw the dashboard start to collapse. next thing we knew flames were flying up the front window. he used the fire extinguisher on it. the fireman arrived and helped make sure the fire was completely out. *tr

At random times, including while sitting in the driveway, the transfer case on my 2006 dodge durango awd will engage the 4wd. it can happen while sitting in the driveway when you insert the key and before you start the engine. it also makes the clicking sound as if it is engaging when you unlock the doors (possible electrical problem?) it can also happen when driving while turning a corner, such as the sharp corners in a drive-thru. the effect is such that one wheel locks up as if one front wheel has the emergency brake on. when going straight there is no issue. i have researched on the internet and found forums where others are having the same exact problem. the problem is that it is random and intermittent, and difficult to reproduce at the dealership. often their response is to simply replace one or more of the three main components without verifying that is the issue. this can be quite expensive for the owner and frustrating after spending large sums of money and the issue remains unsolved. i feel it is a safety issue because an inexperienced driver might have this issue in a drive-thru, and to overcome the lack of movement after pressing the gas pedal, they may rev the engine. this might overcompensate and cause the vehicle to dart forward into another car, or even into the building as the wheels are turned to go around the corner. if the 4wd disengages at the revving of the engine, this could also cause the vehicle to suddenly accelerate into another vehicle, pedestrian, or building. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. the contact stated that the dealer indicated that the instrument cluster was replaced twice before the contact owned the vehicle. the contact stated that the internal lighting remained illuminated and the doors locked with no warning. the failures occurred multiple times. the vehicle was taken to the dealer where they replaced the instrument cluster six times. a mechanic at the dealer stated that there was an internal electrical failure that kept recurring. the manufacturer was notified of the failed component and provided no remedy. the failure mileage was not available. updated 09/01/15*lj updated 10/25/2017*cn

I first noticed a problem when leaving work by simply unlocking my 06 durango (all wheel drive/ 4 wheel drive) with the key fob the transfer case control motor starts shifting the truck in and out from awd to 4wd and i haven't even opened the door!! as the weeks pass it does this several more times but what is more unnerving is that as i am driving at hwy speeds, 60 to 70 mph, or any speed really, my "4 wheel low" light on the dash will start to flicker as if it is trying to shift into 4 wheel low un-commanded. after searching several forums i find this to be a common chronic electrical problem with durangos and a huge safety risk. please understand that max speed for a 4 wheel drive vehicle that is in 4 wheel low is about 10 to 15 mph, the gear ratio is extremely low and intended for maximum traction when off road. if this vehicle shifts into 4 wheel low at 70 mph all 4 wheels will come to a stop and the driver will most likely loose total control. at that speed this is a dangerous combination. i have read of this happening to durangos with serious damage and huge expense for the owner. this very scenario happened to a co-workers wife with his kids in their 06 durango, luckily she was only traveling at about 30 to 35 mph and no accident occurred. now my key fob wont even open the door, it acts as if its dead or broken. i have to use the key to unlock the truck manually which sets off the alarm every time i unlock the door. the same electrical problem i started with is tied to the 4 wheel drive electrically, another common chronic problem. my local dodge dealer denies having any knowledge of this problem or a fix and from what i have read dodge denies it as well. is it going to take a family's death from one of these vehicles for dodge to own up to this and recognize they have a very wide spread problem over several years manufacturing! *tr

When fueling up gasoline will shoot out all over the ground & vehicle. i now have rust starting. there are many others that have this problem too so why is there not a recall? i would think the epa would make dodge make this a mandatory recall. luckily when i had the vehicle in at the dealership for all the electrical issues that they will not acknowledge is their responsibility to fix; the dealer did say he could order the part to fix that. it would be covered at no cost to me. then why wasn't it recalled if they knew about this problem? interesting?! i am thinking that i may never buy a dodge again. i am sure the electrical issues are their responsibility too. please help! *tr

Upon turning into parking lot of local store, car shut down and system locked up. no power steering and no engine light came on. was able to steer car to parking space, stop and restart vehicle. this is the second occurrence in 2 weeks. same scenario, going slow in parking lot and vehicle shuts down. another problem has come up now when after i start the vehicle in the morning, it surges from 1000 rpm to 2000 back and forth for about 10-15 seconds. my questions for the durango makers is when will their be a total recall on these suv's? *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. the contact stated that the interior lights were inoperative, making it difficult to see any of the instrument panel readings at night. the vehicle was repaired under the recall associated with nhtsa campaign id number 07v092000 (electrical system: instrument panel), but the failure recurred. the dealer was notified and was in the process of repairing the vehicle at the expense of the contact. the manufacturer was also notified, but denied any assistance with the repairs. the failure mileage was 119,000 and the current mileage was 120,000.

While trying to start the vehicle from the parking lot the ignition switch would not turn. i had to insert the key in the switch 10 to 12 times before it would turn. i tried to unlock the steering wheel by turn it the best could to get the ignition to turn but it still would not turn. this happened on more than one occasion to myself and my wife. in 2012 we had to after the situation continued we had the ignition replace, a cost of almost $1200.00. i want to know if this was caused by what happened in the latest recall of over 1.4 million vehicles? ...updated 09/11/15 *bf the vehicle was repaired. updated 09/29/15*jb

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 dodge durango. the contact stated while driving approximately 30 mph down hill the brakes were depressed and smoke emitted from the brakes and smelled as if they were on fire. the contact was forced to drive onto the emergency lane. the check engine and air bag lights began to illuminate intermittently. the contact was concerned that there was no air bag in the vehicle. the brakes were currently making a grinding noise. the vehicle was taken to the dealer repeatedly where they continued to turn the warning lights off; however, the manufacturer was not notified. the dealer took the vehicle to another dealership for diagnostic testing and advised the contact that the catalytic converter failed and she would be responsible for half of the repair cost. the failures occurred immediately after she purchased the vehicle. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was 2 and the current mileage was 91,000.

While using my left turn signal, my right blinkers came on. while using my right turn signal, my left blinkers came on. this has happened several times within the past year. more recently, my wipers would work intermittently. also, sometimes my blinkers don't work at all. *tr

2006 dodge durango with multifunction switch issues. the windshield wipers work only on a slow intermittent speed. only the right turn signal works, and will activate when the turn signal lever is pushed to make a left turn (the right signal only will blink). this switch was also replaced in 2008 because of the same problem. there was 40,000 miles on the vehicle at that point. there is now 75,000 miles. *tr
