5th time event has occurred. After extended driving when pulling into a parking spot the vehicle will commence to accelerate. Only by aggressively applying the brake to prevent the vehicle from plowing ahead can I place the transmission into park and turn off the vehicle. Chrysler previously acknowledged cruise control problems. I think the problem still exists. This is a dangerous vehicle. Previous file number #10916715.

While driving on the interstate, with the cruise control engaged, traffic was slowing down due to road repair, I applied my brakes lightly to disengage the cruise control, but the vehicle remained in a forward thrust. I was fast approaching a vehicle ahead of me, and before I realised I wasnt going to stop with further application of my breaks, I hit the vehicle in front of me resulting in a near fatal colision. I was saved by my seat belt and the air bags. I can only estimate my speed at the time of collision to be between 40 or 50 mph, as my cruise control was set at 62 mph

While reversing to hook boat trailer up to vehicle, vehicle took off at a high rate of speed in revers. Hitting the brakes did not help. The vehicle slammed into the trailer with boat sitting on it and pushed into a tree before the vehicle would stop. Furthermore, this vehicle has been into the dealer's 5 times for headliner issues which included interior lights not working, rear ac vents not working, pinched wires in the wiring harness and airbag lights on.

The 2016 Durango rented from enterprise repeatedly, increasingly but intermittently and without driver input, changed gear, revved and indicated on the screen that there were issues with "key fob not in vehicle and "tires pressure". at first their were three very brief incidents lasting less than three seconds over a week, occurring at idle and when accelerating. Later the occurrences lasted sometimes over 20 seconds each and happened sometimes several times per hour, increasingly worse. While there was clearly an issue with the shifter, there appeared to be additional or related issues with the electronic brain. Resetting the options, like shutting off the hill climb option which it was set on before we rented it seemed to help at first but did not. This was dangerous and disturbing. Finally, the car lurched out of park and hit a wall on its own from a few feet away. I have photos and will give more information. These incidents occurred at various times, and seemingly more in the rain and fog, though not exclusively. They occurred once when leaving a stoplight at a low speed turning left, on the freeway, on streets around 30/35 mph and at idle at full stop. Most occurrences were while driving on regular city streets where we did most of the driving on that trip in san jose, monterey and carmel. The worst was right before the pebble beach concours D'elegance, after I had driven North from san diego on a continuous freeway drive in the rain. It may just be a coincidence, but all three of the first instances in the first week of rental occurred after at least an hour drive on the freeway. In san jose, I immediately requested a replacement car but they had none.the second driver immediately noticed issues with the car, but we were told there were no other cars available. I think either the computer circuits were corroded and/or damaged or damp.

Autonomous acceleration. The vehicle without driver assist accelerated twice when pulling into parking spots. In both cases I was making a left turn into a parking spot when the acceleration commenced. Only by standing on the brake while at same time placing the vehicle in park and pressing engine off button was I able to stop vehicles forward motion. The Durango came close to ramming parked car in the space in front of the one I was pulling into. Durango had approx. 3000 miles on odometer when the 2 incidents of acceleration occurred. The incidents occurred on consecutive days, Oct 9 & 10, after driving the vehicle approx. 6-8 hours straight each day. Purchasing dealer was contacted immediately to inform it's service department of the 2 incidents. Vehicle was taken to an out of area dealer on the morning following 1st incident. They read the fault codes and informed me that nothing registered other than the ECM had broken contact. Upon the occurrence of 2nd incident we cut short our trip and returned to our home so that we could take vehicle to purchasing dealer, Suburban Chrysler in farmington hills Michigan. After two days in service the report that came back was no problem found. My concern is that this acceleration could occur during a more problematic situation where ability to control Durango will be limited which could result in bodily injury or property damage. Letters of record have been sent to [xxx], CEO Dodge, and [xxx], service mgr at Suburban Chrysler in farmington hills mi. I have taken photos of brake & gas peddles to show there relation to a weather tech which the dealer has suggested as a possible cause for acceleration. Consumer states there were 2 more occurrences. Dash board went completely blank during last occurrence. Consumer believes failure is related to a cruise control recall.

After purchase, immediately we started having problems with headlight not working, then a rear light and brake light not working. Took in for recall on another part and they discovered it was the electrical, while driving and sitting at lights. Lights on dash, radio, headlights, etc, not work properly or all sudden decide not to work at all. We've taken it back now 5 times. Mechanic says the whole wiring harness is bad and cannot be repaired, but continues to say they called Chrysler for parts to try to repair. While my 83 yrs old dad who bought the car, left sitting at the dealer for 4-5 hours every trip and no rental vehicle available from enterprise or hertz. After sitting there 5 hours today, we had to leave vehicle. This time, we are ready to call attorney for lemon law in Missouri.
