The contact was informed that th https://plaincars.com/make/dodge-durango https://plaincars.com/make/dodge-durango#complaint-2177521 Tue, 17 Feb 2026 00:00:00 GMT Driving down the road on 2 different instances and the head rest deployed on its own fist the driver side next the passenger side. Can’t be reset the clip inside broke. Do accident at all. https://plaincars.com/make/dodge-durango https://plaincars.com/make/dodge-durango#complaint-2177002 Sun, 15 Feb 2026 00:00:00 GMT The Driver's side daytime running light white LED strip is inoperable. After internet research this complaint is very common and similar to the tail "racetrack" light recall. Because daytime running increases visibility of vehicles on the road, this is safety related. I have since observed several late year model Durangos with this exact fault. Stelantis/Dodge/Chrysler will not warranty the fault https://plaincars.com/make/dodge-durango https://plaincars.com/make/dodge-durango#complaint-2176601 Fri, 13 Feb 2026 00:00:00 GMT Around 50,000 or trailer brake service and traction control warning came on. Took into dealership was told it was hydraulic control unit and abs module that need replaced https://plaincars.com/make/dodge-durango https://plaincars.com/make/dodge-durango#complaint-2176540 Fri, 13 Feb 2026 00:00:00 GMT Drivers DRL failed within 3 yrs. This is LED and supposed to last 10-15 yrs. Extended bumper to bumper warranty won’t cover. It’s nearly 2k to fix. Risk is less visibility during daytime to other drivers. Is this led bulb, electrical, fuse, ballast? No one seems to know. 2 dealerships say have to replace entire headlight system for nearly 2k!!! https://plaincars.com/make/dodge-durango https://plaincars.com/make/dodge-durango#complaint-2176265 Thu, 12 Feb 2026 00:00:00 GMT 1.
