About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
Steering problems related to linkage affected by brake resivoir leakage onto linkage to the gear box. Fluid ate rubber off of the "joints" that look to be like that of a "U-joint." The first time was a safety issue involving an "oversteer" situation and the underlying condition was not explained or repaired. The linkage was replaced. One year or so later the Durango began to repeat the above situation on an interstate highway at speeds of over 65 miles per hour. Again the linkage was replaced and the master cylinder {not including the resivoir} was replaced at my expense due to the age of my vehicle {or lack of warranty}. the problem still exsists because I have no job to pay for repairs or a different vehicle. I have replaced linkage X2 and master cylinder for this situation, also had axel hubs {sealed units} fail due to dry bearing, both sides front. Oem replacement parts both failed due to dry bearings in less than 12 months. This also caused a dangerous condition at highway speeds. Wobble and oversteering conditions. Prior to these problems the rear sway bar links had disintegrated and were replaced. This vehicle has done no off road 4X4 action for as long as I have owned it. Thank you !!

While traveling at highway speed the rear end of the vehicle became disconnected, which caused the driver to temporarily loose control of the vehicle. The dealer replaced the rear end of the vehicle.

When the vehicle goes in reverse it makes a clunk. It feeels like it's engaging in 4- wheel. Dealer put in a rear carrier, and new rear end gears. Problem was not remedied, but dealer has order for another part involving linkage for rear end.
