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.
When negotiating a right turn through an intersection, my 2005 Dodge Durango would not turn in the expected direction of travel; thereby the vehicle proceeded into a ditch. No injuries to driver. No damage to property or other vehicles. After review of the vehicle for damage, the right front tire appeared to be severely misaligned and broken from the tie rod assembly. As of the date of this complaint, there severity of the damage to the vehicle has yet to be determined, and is still under review with the insurance company.

Once again while driving my 2005 Durango slowing down to make a turn the vehicle stalled in the middle of a busy intersection. Oncoming traffic just missed colliding with the passenger side of the vehicle. Also there has been a problem with the vehicle accelerator sticking causing the vehicle to have excessive RPM. Also the front end seems to have some type of problem, while turning the vehicle the front end knocks and feels as if the wheels are going to fall off. Daimler chrylser was contacted about the stalling problem again. This is my second Durango as this was the replacement for the 2004 (lemon) Durango which daimler chrylser bought back. Chrysler still has not issued a recall for the stalling problem as this seemes to be a big problem with the 2004 model year as well. The dealeship had a mechanic test drive the vehicle and the stalling could not be reproduced. Therefore nothing was fixed and the problem still exists, hopefully someone looks into the crash data statistics of how many Durango had crashes due to vehicle stalling.
