During the failure, the vehicle had not lost electrical power with the interior lights and instrument cluster illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer on multiple occasions for the same failure and the power train control module, engine mounts, and an unknown wiring harness were replaced; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but offered no assistance. The contact was informed that the vehicle was not included in the NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V524000 (Electrical System). The contact indicated that the vehicle had experienced the failure listed in the recall. The failure mileage was 50,000.

2018 Durango GT purchased at 30k miles and the oil pan gasket was already worn and leaking oil. Tensioner and pulley also failed. Seems like Mopar utilize low quality parts in general, as minor as they may seem they are vital for me to operate my vehicle safely.

Doing some checking problems with this particular vehicle it seems that the water pump/ radiator has problems. My vehicle has a anti-freeze leak when at idle leaving a stream in the driveway. Thus causing a problem for pets and wildlife. The engine warning light has come on. The a/c compressor makes a noise also. FYI.

MY CAR IS A DODGE DURANGO SRT8, YEAR 2018, VIN# [XXX], WITH ONLY 20,000 MILES AND THE ENGINE TRANSMISSION BROKE. IT IS UNDER GUARANTEE AND THE DEALER HAS BEING COMPLIANT. I AM AFFRAID THAT IN THE WEB MEDIA MORE OWNERS WITH THE SAME ENGINE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AS ME. THERE IS A NOTIFICATION THAT THE ENGINE HAD A FACTORY ERROR IN THE MANUFACTURING, THEY MENTION A PARK LOCK ROD CAUSING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION. I AM SEARCHING IF THERE IS ANY RECALL, BUT IT SEEMS THAT THE PROBLEM IS BEGINNING TO FLOURISH. PLEASE I WILL APPRECIATE MORE INFORMATION AND SUGGESTION FROM YOU OF WHAT SHOULD I DO. THANKS.

I stopped at a stoplight, and when I tried to accelerate the car stalled engine light was blinking, drive light on the drive stick was blinking even though it is already on drive. Tried to shift it to park and drive again but the drive stick is locked and the break pads were also locked in place. Turned off the auto start/stop and pushed the start button with the key fob and the car started again. Good thing it was a red light, but I don't want to happen again especially if I'm driving with my family.

This letter is a written notice to Dodge/Chrysler corporation that I am tired of the way they are treating me. I purchased a 2018 Dodge dealer GT, with only 2,800 miles. It was a dealer demo and it has been nothing but problems. Starting from inside of interior falling apart, which was fixed by dealer. However, at 8,000 miles or so the engine started developing an intermittent rattle, that has gotten worse over time. I have tried communicating with Dodge with very little help. Right now I have an open case with Dodge but so far my case manager has not been any help. My engine is getting damaged, and last time I took truck to dealer for service the service advisor told me they would not open engine to look into engine without engine light. Dodge is treating me bad. The truck even turned of while driving but that was only once, who knows of later it will happen again. I feel this truck is a big safety issue that Dodge is simply just ignoring.

While drive my 2018 Dodge Durango on the fwy around 65+ the engine just turn off. With kids in the car we were stuck in the slow lane of the fwy unable to move the car. I tried restarting it with no luck. The car still had power(lights were on). The car wouldn't go into neutral.. the car had to be pulled off the road by a tow truck. After about an hour( car was towed) when we got it home we tried again to start the car it started! no check light came on during anytime. A very scary experience.

I have 3 major issues. 1 while driving the entire center console electrical system has locked completely up, turning the air off and not allowing any change to the system until the vehicle is pulled over and shut off, continuing with electrical 2X's I've shut the car off and the radio would not turn off, until the battery was disconnected which reset the entire system. My second issue is when starting the vehicle there is almost a grinding noise associated with the start up. Third the car seemed to be stuck on cruise control but with enough time to push enough buttons and shift to neutral it came out of cruise, the car has 3000 miles on it and I pay"D almost 50 grand for a brand new vehicle and it continually has issues, is there/will there be a technology fix"
