problem #2

Sep 192007

Durango 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 14,649 miles
Just left my home not driving more than 30 mph when the engine light came on and I lost complete power. Was towed to the dealer where I purchased it and they did a "PCM reflash with an instrument panel software update" they also replaced the cluster. Now 2 and half months later, I haved moved out of state and once again just leaving my house not going above 30 mph and the same thing happens again. Engine light comes on and I lose power, I was barely able to turn the wheel enough to get the vehicle on the side of the road. I was able to start the car again within a couple minutes and safely return home (it was dark), however the engine light was still on and it felt as though it would loose power again, like I was driving with the parking brake on. Also on my drive here from California (to Indiana) I lost my cruise control. This second incident happend tonight and will have to be towed to Dodge dealer tomorrow.
