2002 DODGE DURANGO — Complaint #1135660

Open-data reference.

NHTSA Complaint about SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DRUM filed December 2, 2014

NHTSA complaint #1135660 (ODI reference 10661664) concerns a 2002 DODGE DURANGO and was filed on December 2, 2014. The owner reports the failure occurred on November 30, 2014. The report was geocoded to Alabama based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as service brakes, hydraulic:foundation components:drum, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.

The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.

Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same DODGE DURANGO cohort independently describe similar service brakes, hydraulic:foundation components:drum failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2002 DODGE DURANGO shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
