problem #1

May 182004

Durango 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 4,000 miles
I recently bought a 2004 Dodge Durango slt with the hemi engine. When I accelerate or come to stops, there will be a "popping" noise coming from somewhere in the rear suspension. This occurs daily without fail. Also, when travelling over roadways, at normal speed, there is excessive bounce of the vehicle from the rear along with this popping noise/sensation. I will be bringing the vehicle into the dealer today for this repair. I'm not sure if this problem is associated with three other NHTSA technical service bulletins involving the power train: Axle assembly, the stabilizer bar bushing squawk, or the exhaust drone.
