From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 Blomquist Report at …

I was finally able to stop it completely by shutting the vehicle off. Despite the speed and impact to the front of my vehicle, the airbags never deployed.

Airbag warning dash light comes on intermittently. The Takata airbag recall has been corrected, but the light still comes on. This warning light first appeared on, or about 6 months ago. I have not taken this vehicle back for dealer to re-inspect the issue. The obvious concern here, is whether or not the airbag will fail, when needed, or the airbag might deploy inadvertently.

I brought my vehicle to an Phoenix AZ dealership off of Black Canyon Highway or I-17 on Camelback for airbag safety recall and interior lighting recall and any others needed. When I dropped it off initially I parked on lot by the garage inc front of the rental car business directly in front.

I walked back opened my driver's door and sat in the seat.(legally able to safely driver by entering through the driver's door) I drove it up there. Upon arriving after they provided the airbags recall, moved my dome light which was located on driver's door module that also has other functions,(moved to another module preventing an interior fire on long trips which I was moving for a job to Audubon MN that next few days) and I was unable to enter the vehicle by my driver's door. I had to physically crawl in the passengers side of car over the middle area and drink holders to squeeze my legs under the steering wheel. They informed me it was like that. I requested the video from rental employee mgr or person in charge and he stated "it would be like finding a needle in the haystack". It happened that I also sat for over 3 hours till close there, had a mgr request 2 inspections from his men, filed a complaint, talked with several reps and all before I left the lot. Also I had a tire light on my dash, and others that I find out are all connected to the module the dome light used to be attache

BOUGHT THE CAR USED IN 2014. ALWAYS HAD MISFIRE/ROUGH RUNNING PROBLEMS IN HEAVY RAIN OR A CAR WASH. IN MAY 2019, DRIVING IN THE RAIN, THE ENGINE FAILED CATASTROPHICALLY. RESEARCH ON LINE AND MY OWN REPAIRS DISCOVERED A FLAW IN THE FIRST GENERATION COWL GRILL. IT ALLOWED WATER TO FLOOD THE TOP OF THE ENGINE. A LEAK IN THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKETS ALLOWED THE WATER TO ENTER THE ENGINE, CAUSING IT TO HYDROLOCK. IT BROKE A CONNECTING ROD. IT DID HOWEVER STILL RUN, BUT WAS VERY NOISY. THE INTAKE LEAK WAS NOT NOTICED IN ANY OTHER CONDITIONS, NOR WAS THE CHECK ENGINE LAMP ON PRIOR TO THIS EVENT. THE ENGINE DID NOT USE OIL OR MAKE ANY OTHER NOISES PRIOR TO THIS EVENT. IT HAS ABOUT 175000 MILES.

VEHICLE WILL DIE WITHOUT WARNING YOU HOLE DRIVING CAUSING A SERIOUS RISK FOR COLLISION. ENGINE STOPS RUNNING AND IS VERY HARD TO STEER OR STOP WITH NO POWER.

COWL UNDER WINDSHIELD DOES NOT DIVERT WATER FROM ENGINE BAY. WATER POOLS ON ENGINE, GETTING INTO THE COIL-OVER-PLUGS (COP) AND INTAKE(GASKET) CAUSING HESITATION STALLING AND ENGINE FAILURE AFTER BEING EXPOSED TO WATER. RAIN, CAR WASH, USING THE WINDSHIELD WASHER. CHRYSLER HAS MADE 7 DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THE COWL TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE BUT HAS NEVER ISSUED AN OFFICIAL RECALL. THOSE WHO DO NOT HAVE THE LATEST VERSION OF THE COWL (PART# 55362453AK) HAVE TO PAY FOR THE PART AND HAVE IT INSTALLED OR RISK HAVING ENGINE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IN THE RAIN. PART THAT SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN RECALL 55362453AK "COWL" THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE REPORTED BY "DURANGO" OWNERS THAT IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET

I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS INCIDENT SEVERAL TIMES. WHEN IT RAINS REALLY HARD OR WHEN THE CAR IS TAKEN THROUGH THE CAR WASH, SOME HOW THE WATER REACHES THE MOTOR. IT WILL START ACTING UP (STALLING) AND HAVE TROUBLE "GOING." IT WILL THEN TRIGGER A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND THE MOTOR WILL DIE. I HAVE HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CHECKED WHILE ON AND SPARK PLUGS REPLACED PER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO PLAN ANY TYPE OF TRIP WITH THE THREAT OF RAIN WHILE DRIVING FOR FEAR OF BREAKING DOWN. THE CAR WASH WILL COMPLETELY KILL THE MOTOR AND TAKES SEVERAL TIMES TO RE CRANK. ONCE THE CAR IS DRY, IT RUNS PERFECTLY. I HAVE RED SEVERAL SIMILAR ISSUES ONLINE.

I WAS GETTING GAS AND AS I PULLED OUT OF THE GAS STATION I WAS GETTING A LOAD TICKING NOISE. TO FIND OUT LATER MY 5.7 HIMI LIFTER AND CAM SHAFTS NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I GET A REGULAR OIL CHANGE AND FILTER CHANGE. I AM NOT SURE WHY THIS IS HAPPENING BUT I DID SEE THAT THIS IS NORMAL AND 5.7 HIMIS DODGE DURANGOS AND NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY IT HASN'T BEEN RECALLED. I'M A MOTHER OF 3 LITTLE ONES AND I'M TERRIFIED WE CAN GET STRANDED IF MY ENGINE DECIDES TO GO OUT DUE TO THIS ISSUE.

SO MY CAR STARTED MAKING A MECHANICAL NOISE WHEN I WOULD SHUT IT OFF A FEW WEEKS AGO , IT SOUNDED KIND OF LIKE A CLANKING NOISE OR MORE LIKE A FLAP OPENING AND SHUTTING IT WOULD DO IT THEN STOP . THEN IT STARTED TO GET WORSE DOING IT ALOT MORE AND WHEN I WAS AT THE STOP LIGHTS IT STARTED DOING IT AGAIN AS IT WAS DOING THAT NOISE I NOTICED THE 4LO AND 4LOCK LIGHTS TURNING OFF AND ON. SO I FIGUED IT WAS THE 4X4 SWITCHING ON AND OFF .COMES ON WHILE I AM DRIVING . I CAN TELL WHEN IT IS SWITCHED ON BECAUSE MY CAR FEELS LIKE IT LOSES POWER AND IN FACT IT FEELS AS IF IT IS GOING TO TIP OVER IF IT SWITCHES ON WHILE I AM TURNING . I HAVE NO OTHER VEHICLE SO I

I WAS GOING 45 MILES AN HOUR WITH ALL MY 4 CHILDREN AND HUSBAND IN VEHICLE WHEN WITHOUT WARNING THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. THERE IS NO CODE VEHICLE LOSES POWER STEERING AND BRAKE FUNCTION AND YOU HAVE TO SHUT VEHICLE DOWN AND RESTART TO GAIN CONTROL AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED 7 TIMES! THERE IS NO CODE BEING GIVEN NO ONE CAN DIAGNOSE THIS ISSUE I HAVE BEEN EVERYWHERE AND BEEN TOLD THAT NO ONE CAN DO ANYTHING FOR ME THIS IS RIDICULOUS I HAVE SEEN THIS PROBLEM SPREAD ALL OVER DODGE FOR YOU AND I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THIS IS NOT A RECALL A WHOLE FAMILY MY FAMILY ALMOST DIED MULTIPLE TIMES BECAUSE OF ITS END THIS IS NOT RIGHT THAT THERE IS NOT A RECALL ON THIS THIS IS SERIOUS THERE HAVE BEEN HUNDREDS OF NEAR-DEATH ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE ALONE THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO THIS NEEDS TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY AND DODGE NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH SPEED I WAS PARKED IN MY VEHICLE DIED THIS MORNING I'M FORTUNATE THAT I WAS PARKED AND NOT DRIVING THE LAST TWO TIMES I WAS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT IN FRONT OF SOME CARS AND IT JUST DIED I HAD TO TURN ON MY FLASHERS AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE SO HOPEFULLY NO ONE WOULD HIT ME AS I WAS DEAD IN THE ROAD THE FACT THAT I CAN'T JUST TAKE THIS TO A SHOP BECAUSE THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NO INDICATION OF WHAT'S GOING ON THERE'S NO WARNING WHEN THIS HAPPENS THERE IS NO CODE AFTER THIS HAPPENS I DON'T FEEL SAFE HUNDREDS THOUSANDS OF OTHERS DO NOT FEEL SAFE AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT THIS I AM TERRIFIED TO PUT MY FAMILY IN A FAM

ABOUT A WEEK AGO MY ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY HAD TO BE REPLACED, A DAY OR TWO AFTER I HAD THEM REPLACED I WAS PULLING OUT ONTO A STATE ROAD AND I HEARD SOMETHING GOT CRUNCHED, SO I STOPPED AND GOT OUT ANS LOOKED AND NOTHING. GOT BACK IN RHE CAR AND PUT IT IN DRIVE AND I LOOKED DOWN AT MY DASH AND HEART SOMETHING TRYING TO ENGAGE AND ON MH DASH MY SVC 4WD LIGHT STARTED FLASHING.. IM NOT SURE HOW RO FIX IT OR WHAT TO DO, IT DOES IT QUITE FREQUENTLY. I OPENED THE TRUNK AND HEARD IT TRYING TO ENGAGE. STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT, I CAN HEAR IT TRYING TO ENGAGE TO 4 WD. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING INTO THIA AND I SEE SEVERAL CONSUMERS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUES. IT SEEMS DODGE SHOULD BEABLE TO COME UP WITH A PERMANENT FIX, BUT NO RECALLS YET... MY MAIN CONCERN IS, WHAT HAPPENS IF IM DOING 80 MPS ON THE FREEWAY AND IT TRIES TO ENGAGE INTO 4LOW?? THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME!!

TAKARA RECALL I PUT OIL ON THE ENGINE CONSTANTLY AS I DONT KNOW WHERES IS GOING THROUGH. NO SMOKE OR LEAK.

I HAD STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN AND ATTEMPTED TO TURN LEFT. AS SOON AS I TOOK MY FOOT OFF BRAKE & ONTO GAS, CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED AND SHUT OFF, LEAVING THE CAR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. IT WAS RAINING & SIMILAR HAS HAPPENED TWICE BEFORE DURING RAIN. BOTH PREVIOUS TIMES THOUGH, ALL ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS WOULD WORK BUT I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT ABOUT 15 MINUTES UNTIL CAR WOULD RESTART. THIS TIME HOWEVER, NOTHING WAS WORKING, NOT EVEN HAZARD FLASHERS. EVERY TIME I TRIED RESTARTING, DASHBOARD LIGHTS WOULD BLINK RANDOMLY. I TOOK THE BATTERY TO BE TESTED, WHICH TESTED FINE. IT HAS NOW BEEN 3 DAYS AND CAR WILL NOT RESTART, SAME LIGHTING ISSUES WHEN EVER I HAVE THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, AND NOTHING ELECTRICAL IS WORKING INCLUDING THE KEY TO UNLOCK THE DOORS REMOTELY.

MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED ON ME WHILE DRIVING COULDN'T TURN WHEEL LEFT CAUSING ME TO CRASH. WHEEL GOT STUCK WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN

THE TRANSFER CASE RANDOMLY SHIFTS INTO 4 WHEEL LOCK AND EVEN 4-LO. THIS HAPPENS EVEN WHEN DRIVING. I CURRENTLY ONLY DRIVE ON CITY STREETS AS I AM CONCERNED THAT IT WILL CAUSE ANY ACCIDENT OR DAMAGE THE VEHICLE IF IT SHIFTS INTO 4-LO AT HIGHER SPEEDS. THE TRANSFER CASE IS CURRENTLY STUCK IN 4 WHEEL LOCK, WHICH MAKES IT VERY HARD TO TURN. I HAVE READ IN FORUMS THAT MOST PEOPLE DISCONNECT THEIR TRANSFER CASE MOTOR, LOSING FUNCTIONALITY BUT MAKING THE TRUCK SAFER. I CANNOT DISCONNECT THE TRANSFER CARE MOTOR WHILE IT IS STUCK IN 4 WHEN LOCK. DODGE SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE AND FORCED TO FIX ALL THESE VEHICLES.

I AM ORIGINAL OWNER AND LOVE MY DURANGO BUT SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT I CANNOT DRIVE IN RAIN. THE VEHICLE SPUTTERS AND DIES AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. I FOUND SEVERAL PLACES ONLINE OF PEOPLE WITH SAME COMPLAINT AND THE ISSUE IS THE ORIGINAL COWL. I LOOKED AND MINE DOES NOT HAVE A TALLER RIDGE AROUND THE WIPER BOLTS OR A RIDGE TO DIVERT THE WATER FROM RUNNING INTO MY ENGINE. I NEED THE 2ND GENERATION COWL THAT WAS IMPROVED PART #55362453AK OUR FAMILY ALWAYS BUYS DODGE, MY HUSBAND HAS THE 1500 TRUCK AS WELL AS MY DAUGHTER. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY DODGE HAS NOT PUT A RECALL OUT ON THIS ISSUES THAT SO MANY ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT. I HAVE TAKEN MY DURANGO SEVERAL TIMES TO THE SERVICE DEPT. AND THEY COULD NEVER FIND THE PROBLEM BUT ONLINE AFTER SEEING EVERYONE WITH SAME ISSUE AND HOW THEY ARE REPAIRING I KNOW I NEED THIS PART. I RAN WATER DIRECTLY OVER THE WINDSHIELD AND AS IT WENT OVER THE EXISTING COWL IT DID INDEED DUMP INTO MY ENGINE AND STARTED SPUTTERING AND SHUT OFF. I TRIED TO FIND THE PART BUT THEY ARE COSTING $180 WITH SHIPPING AND ANOTHER $130 TO HAVE INSTALLED. I NEED THIS PART LIKE SO MANY OTHER DODGE OWNERS AND THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS ONGOING ISSUE. IT IS NOT SAFE FOR US BECAUSE THE VEHICLES STALL IN TRAFFIC AND WE HAVE TO AVOID COLLISIONS WITH OTHER DRIVERS AS WELL AS CREATING TRAFFIC JAMS. I HAVE TO KEEP MY VEHICLE PARKED UNDER A ROOF TO AVOID RAIN AND I CANNOT DRIVE WHEN IT IS RAINING. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUES SINCE I HAVE OWNED FROM 2004 TO

KEY FHOB'S HAVE NOT BEEN WORKING FOR A WHILE. REPLACE BATTERY STILL NOT WORKING. NOW MY SHIFT MOTOR ON THE TRANSFER CASE IS RANDOMLY SHIFTING AND LOCKING IN 4WD HIGH. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT HAPPENS WHILE PARKED IN THE PARKING LOT THEN WHEN YOU GO TO DRIVE HARD TO TURN OR GET OUT OF 4WD. WHEN IT LOCKS IN 4WD IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO BACK UP. IT DOESN'T SEEM TO MATTER WHETHER YOU'RE PARKED DRIVING ON CITY STREETS OR ON THE HIGHWAY. HOWEVER, WHEN IT HAPPEN IT CAN LEAD TO INABILITY TO STEER AND CONTROL THE VEHICLE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND CAN ALSO LEAD TO SUBSTANTIAL COSTLY REPAIRS FROM BEING IN 4WD AND NOT ON THE CORRECT SURFACE. REVIEWING MANY ON-LINE FORUMS I'M FINDING THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHERS THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. ALTHOUGH THERE HAVE BEEN MANY ATTEMPT TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM THERE SEEMS TO BE AN UNWILLINGNESS TO HELP OR DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE. MANY REPAIRS HAVE BEEN DONE AND HAS NOT RESOLVED THE ISSUE OR TEMPORARILY FIXS IT AND THEN RIGHT BACK TO THE SAME ISSUE.

THE 4WHEEL/AWD VEHICLES WILL SELF ENGAGE TRANSFER CASE CAUSING EQUIPMENT MALFUNCTION OR SERIOUS BODILY INJURY DO TO POSSIBLY VEHICLES CRASH DO TO EQUIPMENT MALFUNCTION IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY CHRYSLER BUT THE REFUSE TO MY OPTION THERE FOR WOULD CAUSE A MASSIVE RECALL IN NUMEROUS YEARS THAT WOULD CAUSE THE COMPANY A LARGE FINANCIAL BACK SET THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE IT TAKES LIVES OF IT HASN'T ALREADY SEARCH THE WEB FOR THIS ISSUE THERE'S NUMEROUS SITES WITH FORUMS REGARDING THIS EXACT ISSUE NUMEROUS VEHICLES

TAKATA RECALL AND ELECTRICAL INTERIOR LIGHTS STAY ON DIMMER DON'T WORK NEEDS CLUSTER REPLACED DEALER SAYS THAT IT MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE AFTER KEEPING MY CAR FOR 5 DAYS AS OF TODAY 12 -31-18 THEY SAY THEY CAN'T GIVE IT BACK TO ME BECAUSE OF THE ELECTRIC RECALL!?

THE VEHICLE WOULD ALWAYS DRIVE ROUGH WHENEVER IT RAINED AND WOULD EVEN DIE WHEN GOING THROUGH A CAR WASH. IF IT STARTED RAINING WHILE IN TRAFFIC, I HAD TO KEEP MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND THE GAS WHEN COMING TO A STOP OTHERWISE THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL. AFTER RAINING ALL NIGHT, I CAME TO START MY VEHICLE IN THE MORNING AND IT ONLY MADE A TERRIBLE CLUNKING NOISE WITHOUT STARTING. LUCKILY, I WAS NOT DRIVING IN TRAFFIC WHEN THE VEHICLE DECIDED TO STOP RUNNING DUE TO RAIN, SOMETHING THAT A VEHICLE SHOULD NOT IRREGULARLY AND SUDDENLY SHUT OFF OVER.
