2013 Dodge Durango Engine Problems

My vehicle constantly stalls at idle or while stopped at a traffic light or stop sign. I was so bothersome is that the vehicle rolls back during these endeavors. It usually happens 3 or 4 times a day. I've taken in to the dealer for the recall they replaced the recall parts, but it still continues to stall. It's more frustrating when i'm at a stoplight and I have people behind me honking because the vehicle rolls back as it stalls.

See attached document for complaint.

My 2013 Durango with 124,000 miles has a check engine light on, that indicates cylinder 4 miss fire. The Airpark Dodge service department where I purchased the vehicle has done a diagnostic evaluation and determined that the left cylinder head needs replacing. That falls within the X56 engine left cylinder head extended warranty for some VIN # vehicles, but not mine. The estimated repair is over $5000.00. I am told that the engine can cease up while driving, and that I should not be driving the vehicle. I think my vehicle should be included, especially since this X56 warranty extension has been out since 2014. How do I get this X56 warranty on my vehicle? And how do I get reimbursed for the cost of the repair?

No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed failures with the water pump and thermostat. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure reoccurred.

The oil filter cooling housing is leaking oil onto the engine. The housing is poorly designed. It’s plastic. So therefore it can evidently catch fire on the housing and cause combustion. It does make the car smell like it’s running hot or it smells like Burt motor oil. Everything we have read says his is a poor design by Chrysler bc they tried to cut corners. The newer models for the housing is aluminum that will better withstand the heat. I think this should be a recalled event.

Leaking oil filter housing which seems to be a very common manufacturer defect.

Was out running errands and returned home. Pulled in garage and vehicle smelled hot, like on fire. Went to start vehicle back up and remove from garage incase of fire. The vehicle would NOT start. Took vehicle to local repairman. I was informed the alternator caught on fire. If this would of happened on the road, I could have been in a bad accident. Also because my vehicle was parked in the garage, there could of been the possibility of my house and vehicle catching on fire if it would have been worse. My Durango is currently at a independent auto repair shop. The new alternator has been ordered but there is concern that the computer might be destroyed also. The only person to inspect the vehicle would be my auto repairman. Unfortunately, there was absolutely NO warning lamps prior to the alternator burning up.

THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2013 DODGE DURANGO FOR THE SUV TO SUDDENLY SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. THE RECALL WAS SAID TO BE FIXED BUT SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD IT SHUT OFF AT LEAST 4 TIMES WHILE DRIVING. YOU LOSE COMPLETE CONTROL OF THE CAR; NO BRAKES, NO STEERING...NOTHING! THIS HAS HELPED ON A FLAT SURFACE AND ON A HILL.

LIFTER AND CAMSHAFT FAILED ON 3.6 V6 ENGINES. HAS BECOME A VERY COMMON OCCURRENCE ON 2011-2015 DODGES THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE FIX AND ALSO POSES A SAFETY CONCERN IF ENGINE FAILS WHILE DRIVING.

MY VEHICLE GET STALL ONCE ON A WHILE IT TAKES A FEW TURNS TO GET IT STARTED IT IT HAPPENED THREE TIMES ALREADY

WHEN I FIRST STARTED MY CAR, I HEARD A WHINING NOISE THAT DIDN'T SOUND NORMAL, BUT WAS NOT OVERLY LOUD. ABOUT 5 MINUTES LATER (MAYBE LESS), AS I WAS TRAVELING DOWN A TOWN ROAD DOING 30MPH THE CAR SHUT OFF. MY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM STILL WORKED AS THE RADIO AND AIR CONDITIONING WERE ON. I PULLED INTO A DRIVEWAY OF A BUSINESS (WITHOUT POWER STEERING) AND PARKED. I WAS GOING TO CHECK TO SEE IF EVERYTHING LOOKED NORMAL AND SEE IF MAYBE THE FUEL PUMP RELAY HAD AN ISSUE. MY FUEL PUMP RELAY HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN REPAIRED IN 2015 DUE TO NHTSA RECALL # 15V-115. HOWEVER, IN MAY 2019, THE CAR STOPPED RUNNING WHEN IT WAS DRIVING 70MPH DOWN AN INTERSTATE. I WAS INFORMED BY DODGE THAT THE FUEL PUMP RELAY WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER THE PREVIOUS RECALL FOR A SECOND TIME BECAUSE IT HAD EXPIRED AFTER 2 YEARS. IN NOVEMBER 2019, I RECEIVED ANOTHER RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR THE FUEL PUMP RELAY (NHTSA RECALL # 19V-813); HOWEVER, IT WAS INCOMPLETE BECAUSE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. WHEN I OPENED THE DOOR, I SMELLED BURNING RUBBER BUT DID NOT OBSERVE ANY SMOKE. AFTER I WAS ABLE TO POP THE HOOD, I SAW A SMALL FLAME IN THE AREA OF THE ALTERNATOR. I IMMEDIATELY GOT MY TWO CHILDREN (AGES 3 AND 6) OUT OF THE CAR AND CALLED 911. MY HUSBAND ARRIVED BEFORE THE FIRE TRUCK, BUT THE 911 OPERATOR TOLD US NOT TO TRY TO PUT OUT THE FIRE WITH THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER HE BROUGHT. THE CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS BY THE TIME THE FIRE WAS PUT OUT BY FIREFIGHTERS. I'M JUST THANKFUL, FOR ONE, THAT MY CHILDREN AND I MADE IT SAFELY OUT OF THE CAR, AND FOR ANOTHER, THAT I DID NOT MAKE IT THE MILE AND A HALF LEFT TO HOME AND GET PARKED IN MY CARPORT BEFORE MY CAR CAUGHT FIRE. I WAS INFORMED OF NHTSA RECALL # 17V-435 RELATING TO ALTERNATOR FAILURE AND CAN'T HELP BUT WONDER, DUE TO THE LOCATION OF THE FLAME, IF MY VIN SHOULD'VE BEEN INCLUDED IN THAT RECALL, BUT WAS NOT.*DT*JB*DT*JB*DT*JB*DT*JB*DT *TR

ENGINE PRODUCES TICKING SOUND FROM DRIVER SIDE ENGINE HEAD. SUSPECTED ISSUE IS ROCKER ARM OR LIFTER. TICKING SOUND OCCURS AT IDLE ALL THE WAY THROUGH REV RANGE, BUT SEEMS TO DISSIPATE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS UNDER LOAD. IF NOT FIXED VEHICLE ENGINE WILL EXPIRE.

3.6L PENTASTAR ENGINE IS TICKING, FROM PERSONAL RESEARCH OF THE NOISE I'VE FOUND MANY PEOPLE WHO HAVE THIS ENGINE HAVE EXPERIENCED IT. PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD IT FIXED SAY ITS ROCKER ARM BEARING FAILING. IT OCCURS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING, BE IT AT IDLE OR THROUGHOUT THE REV RANGE, UNDER LOAD OR STATIONARY.
