When attempting to start and the push button is pressed, the vehicle stutters for up to 5 seconds before turning over. This is happening intermittently, but will always turn over. Vehicle has been taken to the dealership on 2 occasions (10/28/22 @ 56.5K miles and 12/09/22 @ 56.7K miles) where they were able to duplicate the start crank issue, but there isn't a code appearing to provide an area to troubleshoot. It was also communicated that the service technician researched several service bulletins and was not able to find any information on the happenings. Because there isnt a "failure" we have been told that the vehicle needs to fail in order to have this fixed. We have less than 58K miles on this vehicle. This has been happening since September 2022

The start/stop warning light came on for the second time on my 2019 Durango. I had both batteries replaced the first time and now, at 18,500 miles it came on again even though I drive it daily on both highway and local roads. This time, the warning only came on once but the start/stop feature was affecting the performance of the truck. There would be a lag when I would start to drive again, which was dangerous because if you-€™re making a quick turn or merge, that little delay was significant in safely timing the turn. Also, it would jerk the wheel abruptly upon restarting. And then the truck died completely. Leaving my husband and daughter stranded. Thank god my infant and I were home because this would-€™ve been even worse with a baby in tow and or if I was on my way to pick up my older daughter somewhere. He said all the lights and alarms on the dash went bezerk and then the truck wouldn-€™t start at all. The battery strain from the start/stop must have drained the main battery enough to make the computer system go crazy and completely shut down. The tow truck driver couldn-€™t get any power to truck and now we were left having to get towed to the dealership right after service closed, with the truck being completely unlocked and dead and the driver side window open.

Radio/gps screen constantly pops-up weather alerts while driving for locations 100's of miles away and irrelevant to the driver. Alert completely obstructs the screen requiring human intervention and distraction to clear the alert. Alerts cannot be disabled and happen so often that the nuisance is a distraction to driving and operating the vehicle.

The radio volume randomly does not work. On start up it will sometimes be very quiet and the seach/scan button will only scan back around to the station it was on and manually entering a radio station will bring it up but the reception is horrible and no volume. Sometimes if you switch between am fm it will fix itself but not always.

Re: uconnect screen. Constant weather alert pop-ups while driving, requiring driver to touch screen to delete. As many as 3 per 5 min period. Distracted driving danger. This feature can not be disabled by owner. Chrysler Dodge dealer, uconnect company unwilling to correct. These weather alerts are not even for my county. The pop-ups cover the screen and render the screen useless.
