Vehicle starts then stalls out, or just cranks and cranks, and won't start. Happened a few times at stop lights after short drive. Was able to finally get started to drive to dealer, was told I could either replace the tipm for over $1000, or do a fuel relay bypass to the existing tipm for a little over $550. Same exact problem all the recalled Durango/Grand Cherokee have, yet the 2012's haven't been recalled" why" vehicle left us stranded multiple times in fl heat with infant in car.

The issue began as I took my truck in for a recall on the brake system. I informed that I was having issues with the cruise control system not functioning. Since then the cruise control issue had a diagnostic that darcars is informing there is not issue but no replacement or suggestions have been presented. I began having problems with the push start around 8/1. when trying to start the truck it will not turn over and eventually will stall out completely. So I attempted to remote start which worked for a couple of days. Soon it began to cause the same problem. Since then I have been starting the car with the key. Until 9/22, on that morning my son stated he heard a hissing sound from the rear driver tire. I also heard this sound at approximately 2:15 pm. Which prompted me to call darcars service center because a vanity light recall was just mailed to us. So I tried to schedule an appointment. Before I left work at 5:30 I attempted to unlock the door and could not without the key being inserted to the door. The car would not crank. I started realizing I was having the same nightmare as others tipm. The car is now being worked on but they are calling the issue everything but what it is so that I purchase a full pump relay, throttle box, and battery. Costing me 1400 plus 140 for another diagnostic please attach to P54 recall multiple stalls and non functioning vehicle.

The contact owns a 2012 Dodge Durango. While turning the ignition key to start the vehicle, the contact heard a clicking noise and the engine would not start. The contact was able to start the engine after several attempts. In addition, while stopped at a red light, the vehicle suddenly stalled. The vehicle was towed to the dealer who diagnosed that the wiring for the fuel pump relay inside the totally integrated power module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 38,000.

Durango cranks and doesn't turn over or starts and then stalls after short distance. Local dealer has repaired fuel pump. Recall presently only includes 2011's and should be extended to all effected years.

Was driving down the road on the way to the garage as the vehicle had been having difficulty starting on 4 or 5 occasions over the previous days. As I was driving down the road the vehicle shut off, no gas nothing. I was able to coast the vehicle to a safe place and eventually it started back up again. Took the vehicle the dealership on 9-8-2014 and was advised that it was the relay from the tipm to the fuel pump. I have since learned that there was a recall on 2011 models for this same thing; but my SUV is a 2012 model. I wanted to file the complaint as this is a dangerous situation and clearly it is happening in models other than the 2011. The repairs were almost $300 for a problem that it seems like other models are having just as the 2011 Durangos.

Sitting idle on a driveway vehicle began to smoke and smell. Punched gas three times and each time huge white blue cloud of smoke pushed out. Smell of burning metal came with cloud of smoke. Took to dealership where they at first could not recreate the problem. After placing the vehicle on an incline and starting it up they too got the smoke, and not just from mine but from another on the lot. They tell me that it is the oil pan design is faulty and that my vehicle will smoke when on an incline, driveway, hill, stuck in traffic at a slope. The emissions are horrendous and I am shocked that a 57 hemi engine would do this. Shocked more that Chrysler knows of the problem and has not yet fixed it.
