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!

As I was turning left into a community the steering wheel locked up while the vehicle was still in drive. I immediately put the emergency lights on. I put my foot on the brake for safety while the vehicle was still in drive. I lifted my foot from the brake and the car remained still. I pressed the gas pedal and the car remained still. I then placed my foot on the brake again and it was stiff. When I pressed the gas the vehicle wouldn't move while still in drive. I placed my foot back on the brake and put the vehicle in park. I pressed the engine button and the vehicle engine came on. I turned the emergency lights off, put the vehicle in drive and continued my destination. I have a video, but it exceeds the upload size for this site.

I had just exited an uphill ramp after coming off the highway from about 65 mph to 35 mph. After entering the ramp I had to stop at a red light. When it was time to turn right, the gas would not accelerate the car and the steering wheel had locked up. I had to restart the vehicle in order to proceed with my route. This is the sixth time that this has occurred while the vehicle has been either in motion or turned on in the process of driving.

I was taking my children to school. We were in morning traffic on a major highway going North. We were in the second farthest left lane. I was driving about 65 mph when the car suddenly began to slow down on its own. The steering wheel locked up. This time we were in a bulk of traffic and an 18 wheeler was behind us. I turned on our emergency lights, looked to the left and had to stick my left arm out the window to signal to the other cars behind us to let us over to the left shoulder. I was able to guide the vehicle to the left shoulder. The radio was still playing. I turned the car off, sat for a moment to calm down and called my husband. I then restarted the car and continued taking my children to school.

I was taking my children to school. I had just exited the freeway and slowed down to about 25 mph. As I slowed down the steering wheel locked up. There was no where to veer off in this situation because we were in the farthest left lane that had to turn beneath the underpass. Because we were at a stop light, I was able to turn the emergency lights on, turn the vehicle off and turn it back on. The car shook a little and we continued to school.

My 2012 Dodge Durango has lost steering power 4 times since I purchased it new. The first 3 times the repair was performed under warranty by larry H miller Dodge, 4220 E 22nd street, tucson, AZ. 85711, (520) 745-1000. In these cases, the dealer claimed a hose had come off and they connected it back on. Documentation on these repairs available is upon request. The issue was reported to Chrysler-Dodge Consumer Affairs dept. And was assigned case no. 24966049. My vehicle lost steering power for the fourth time on December 21, 2015. It left a huge puddle of fluid on the pavement and the power steering container is empty. Every time this has happened, we have been lucky to avoid an accident. However, we have become afraid of driving the vehicle. The car is now permanently parked with no power steering. I believe there is a design or manufacturing defect with the hose that keeps coming off. Putting it back on is not an acceptable form of repair. It does not solve the problem and it endangers our life.

2012 Dodge Durango crew with a V6. Engine died while driving down the highway. I lost power steering and power brakes, but managed to get out of traffic and let it coast to the shoulder. The engine would crank, but immediately die. After a few attempts, the engine began running smoothly. Since then, it will occasionally not start (the starter turns over, but the engine will not run). No codes are displaying when hooked to a computer. A mechanic told me it was the tipm and I would have to take it to a dealer. After looking online, I found many other complaints for the same problem. Engine seems to have a better start record if I turn the key on and wait 2 seconds before starting vs immediately trying to crank the car as soon as I insert the key. Remote start rarely works now. My main concern is the engine dying while my wife is driving in heavy traffic (she is the primary driver). To me, this is a much more pressing issue than the current recalls.

Heard from a friend with a 2011 Durango that they had low power steering fluid when they had their maintenance check up. I had been hearing a mild grinding noise when I would move my steering wheel at times so I took it in to have it checked. Sure enough, the power steering fluid level was at a very low level. They had to put some in and then schedule an appointment to come back and look for a leak. Came back, found no leak and blamed it on the manufacturer for having an air bubble or something. Friend was right. I guess it is common. Check your power steering fluid levels!

Leased 2012 Durango on 12/28/11. At 9353 miles on 12/7/12 the power steering system ruptured while making a turn into a parking lot. Power steering fluid covered engine and engine compartment. Complete failure of all power steering, vehicle was very difficult to maneuver to a safe spot out of traffic. Vehicle had to be flatbed to dealer. Dodge service stated that a fitting on a hose had broken or fallen off. It was repaired. At 21,922 miles on 1/09/13 once again as I pulled out of traffic into a shopping center the same thing happened again. Complete failure of all power steering, flatbed to Dodge dealer and am told that all hoses and pump assembly need to be replaced. I understand something happening once. Twice is a issue. Contacted Dodge and was told there are no other reports of this. After a little searching Dodge customer service rep said there have been reports of something like this on some 2012 Jeep.
