Mine was the crank shaft position sensor. I found it with no codes by unplugging things one by one. When I unplugged the cps I heard the fuel pump kick on and I knew that was the problem.
Me either, though I do know to buy a 1994 Toyota Celica the next time I need to replace my car... and to have a qualified mechanic like Scotty look at it first.
It gets worse! Chrysler has been replacing the good certified mechanics with these young kids who just completed a REALLY short program because they can pay them half what the good mechanics got!
Funny. I used to say the one good thing about owning a Chrysler vehicle is that it gave you plenty of legit excuses to talk to the cute receptionist at the mechanic shop. If nothing, it is an excellent wingman in that sense.
My father brought a brand new Durango back in 2001, drove the hell out of it, past it on to me, I drove the hell out of it, and then sold it when it hit 295000 miles. Honestly the best vehicle we've ever owned. All new cars have electrical issues no matter the manufacturer
Ours was awful 99 Durango in and out of the shop in 07 for oil pressure and sludge related issues, engine died 2/12 and trans died in 2017. Despite all that transmission began slipping again in 2022. Had towed to junkyard at 177,000 miles on the frame. POS truck
I've been around BMWs for a while and usually their issue is for the normal repairs it cost way too much to fix. The labor and the cost of the materials is just ridiculous.
Had a 2015 dodge charger RT. Water pump went out at 40k miles. At 47k miles, engine started ticking, dealer said it was a common HEMI tick and put higher octane gas. I find it stupid dealer said its common. Sold it when it had 50k miles and the suspension started giving out some noise. Did not bother to check. Glad I sold it.
Exactly my point you made it perfectly clear. But when it comes to Chrysler products I think I figured it out by re-watching his video I think there was a person in a dodge whether it be male or female violated his wazoo I will give you this Scotty is very smart when it comes to working on things. I think he sometimes gets really cocky because once he made money he was able to get an Asian mail order bride. 20 years younger than him. Now he thinks he’s the stud. Well maybe that makes up for the person that stretched out his wazoo That drove the Dodge

I have a 2013 Durango RT and it hasn't had a single problem yet. Has 135k miles on it and other than a little squeak here or there runs like a champ. I think that the Hemi ones do much better than the SXT and the Other trims.
@Barbie Sioux Cherokee Sparrow Hawk don't misunderstand the old Durango's that share the similar chassis with the Dodge Dakota, they were solid schrock's but there was a small number of them that had defective ball joints in the early 90s very early 2000s
Wait for little more for that 5.7 hemi it's preety shitty actually .leaks crazy and electrical problems including trunk which dealer cant fix then cam melted engine rebuild and burnt computer all one owner
Fuel pump relay recall. Have a 2013 been a reliable and great vehicle. I don't know what his deal with moppar is but I've always had good luck with Mopar.
I had a 99 Dodge Durango 5.9 Liter 4WD A lot of money in and it barely squeaked past 100K miles. It died a slow death as I drove it to a Toyota dealer to claim my cash for clunkers benefit. Still driving my 2009 Highlander just regular maintenance 150k miles and it runs like a top, not one leak anywhere does not burn oil starts every time. ymmv
Scotty is a great mechanic for showing his customer how to get the defective alternator replaced for free. A lot of sorry mechanics would not have cared enough to do that.
Wonder if this is what’s wrong with my friends challenger, started not starting after filling the gas tank at only 20k miles, took it to the dealership multiple times and they couldn’t figure it out so they gave him a check basically saying he couldn’t sue them or use the lemon law. I’ve been buying used Lexus with over 100k and driving them past 200k before trading them for a new one and I haven’t had as many problems as he’s had with his brand new challenger lol
Im normally a ford man but, i have a 98 Dakota 3.9l automatic and iv never realy thought much of dodge but i hafta say this truck has changed my mind. Well built, runs great, reliable.
Thats because its prior to the 02 change over and Daimler only built the 4.7, everything else that year had been around forever from a power plant standpoint.
It's just a recall for alternator. Its free. Dodge's aren't bad. (Toyota had gas pedal that gets stuck floored and exploding airbags while driving but i mean toyota is perfect. Who cares if your car flew into river or airbag exploding while driving bigger problem is alternator. Of course this was sarcasm. Toyota is great but other car manufacturers are also great. Scotty is great mechanic but why always "because it's dodge this is wrong". Take for example dodge demon you can do hundreds of burnouts and still drive home normally. Every car has good and bad things. Don't hate car because of one thing. Scotty should just say people if you have durango check the recalls.
2011 Durango Crew awd 3.6 had a recall on it for relay to the pump for this very reason. It was replaced. And have a recall on the new one also. Had the Alt. Replace also on a recall.
Scotty is right the central computer programming is to blame for these. I had a 2011 Citadel after 3 years of owning it I started having these issues. - replaced the alternator - recalled the fuel pump relay (then it started not shutting off the fuel pump after engine stop (would come out to 1/8th a tank less) - multiple recalls to replace the sunroof wiring harness (possibility of setting the car on fire) - Central computer was replace 3 times - Recalls for the possibility of the engine not shutting off on rollover (programming issue) - Recalls for the possibility of air bags not deploying on crash or deploying randomly! - Adaptive Cruise Control would freak out anytime I passed another dodge I've lived inside and out of an engine bay since I could turn a wrench. I'm also in IT and I actually got the car to exhibit the conditions while decelerating down an off ramp form 65 to a 25 mile an hour turn Engine stall (confirmed with scanner at the dealer that it thought it has rolled over) computer replaced. I was contacted by a law firm that is doing lemon law on I think 2010-2014 but it would have taken 18 months or more SO... I traded it and learned my lesson. They look cool they have power but they are literally death traps.
When I first heard the problem with this truck, my first guess would have been the Cam Positioning Sensor was bad....but I see differently now. This video gave me a lot more to think about. Thanks Scotty!!
I have had two Dodge Vehicles, Both were Double Lemons--first one was 1978 dodge truck right off the showroom floor-it must have been built on a Monday or Friday, to many problems to list. Then wife wanted a small gas efficient car so in 1985 we bought a New Dodge K-car with a 4 cylinder-a nightmare of a car, had to be towed by dealer 3 times in one year and things got worse after that--finally Traded it in on a Ford Taurus V-6, Best Decision that we ever made--Great car for over 10 years....
Scotty there is always one fault code that keeps popping up whenever you have a problem with a Chrysler/Dodge product. It's the "Your Fault" for buying one code that people just seem to ignore.
I'm at 196k miles on my 2014 Charger and have been lucky thus far with my control modules. That said, there was some fun and games hunting down codes and replacing sensors after my fuel pump crapped out 10k miles ago. Gotta love modern sensor-controlled everything...
2019 Durango GT w/19k miles. In CC, Pressing Cruise Control “resume”, all dash lights went out. Toggling dimmer wheel, came back on instantly. Same day, Auto Engine Stop upon restart the engine rev’d free as if in Neutral. Shifting up and back into Drive the trans engaged. Not confidence inspiring.

Dodge Durangos are a good looking hunk of junk. Total waste of money.
I knew it. I have a ‘14 Durango. I got a letter in the mail for this same recall. Fortunately, for me, I didn’t take any chances with this and I got the alternator changed right away. The thought of driving down the highway and my vehicle completely dying scared the crap out of me.
Have a 2013 SXT - same exact thing happening to me. There’s a common recall on many of these years - the fuel pump relay. It could be that, or a faulty ground. Both are very common. Also the ignition is VERY sensitive, and even the slightest graze against it can make it shut off. Good video
I just called a dealership today about a great price on a 2012 SXT Durango. It has 96,000 miles. Should I avoid this vehicle? Did you have your issues resolved?
@@mc540flip Eh I don’t know. I think you should. My issues never resolved. In addition to the stalling I ended up cracking my transfer case, which is a $2500 repair. I never fixed it as I had enough and just traded it in for a 2018 Ford Edge SEL which has been a wonderful vehicle so far. Much better than the Durango. My other big gripe with those year’s Durangos is that the SXT’s V6 offered almost NO pickup/pep. They revamped their V6 around 2018 to make it a reasonable acceleration. The vehicle is just too big for less than 280 hp
@@wkdravenna I bet you most of those codes are pending codes for computers since it wasn't running when he scanned it. Fun fact for people some vehicles, especially European designed have to be running to get the correct faults without pending codes. That Durango is a Mercedes computer made in Germany. Same thing with my dodge and same thing with my land rover disco 3.
@may day well my brother had a 2001 Durango with the 4.7l magnum he offroad in that thing. He built his own bumpers, put an actual suspension lift to fit 37in tires. It was awesome offroad.
An honest mechanic nowadays truly a diamond in the rough. It's edutainment watching your reviews and advice on all vehicle related. Q&A, thinking of buying a pick up truck and want to know which one you could recommend. Thanks in advance for your advice.
@@LEMMYKISGOD Actually, Daimler-Benz needed Chrysler more at the time of the merger due to being financially strapped and overspending R&D in the 1990s.
I have been driving Chrysler cars since 2014, Charger R/T, RAM 1500 and now a 2020 Durango R/T. Solid cars, fun to drive, practical, good looking, solid all over.
I used to own an old 1998 Dodge Grand Caravan Sport. Had issues where it just wouldn't start. A mechanic told me this vehicle had an issue with solder points on its circuit board under the dash. He said I had two options. The first was spend a lot of money and have the dash pulled and have circuit board resoldered. Second was just beat my fist on the dash to jostle the circuit board and then try starting the vehicle. The latter worked quite well and was a whole lot cheaper!
@Richi RIch The Durango doesn't have a single Fiat part in it believe it or not since it hasn't been refreshed since 2011. Dodge's are fine, just steer clear from any car they have that has been updated in the past year or 2 and they will last up to 150k.
I know this is an unpopular opinion but you guys have to understand that Scotty is a mechanic and mechanics tend to hate the cars they work on the most(believe it or not). As a Dodge owner, I will say Dodge loves to cheap out on some of their parts and it shows(which is ironic because when Dodge first became a company the whole point was to build high-quality cars that were better than what Ford made) With that said the car has never had any major problems and only has had minor problems along the way and overall has been a great car.
2005 Dodge Durango 4.7L owner here. My Durango has a bad Body Control Module (Chrysler calls this a Central Timing Module). When the car is parked the dome lights randomly turn off and on. Sometimes the dome lights never act up when parked but most times they do. When driving, the door ajar dashboard light (along with the dome lights) randomly turns off and on which also makes the doors lock and unlock if driving faster than 15 MPH. I am sending the CTM in to G7 Computers soon. They will fix the module for $275. I will have a video on my channel soon with this story.
Great video Scotty. Would love to see more of these kind of videos where you fix customers cars . would make great viewing and also learn things . Thank you
I have two friends with V6 Dodge Chargers, both 10 years old with more than 120k miles, both have been bullet proof outside of suspension parts, no break-downs or power-train issues. Obviously Chryslers can be prone to reliability issues, but it'd be a lie to say they don't make ANY solid vehicles.
I have a V6 2007 Charger with 215k miles for my daily. No issues, I'm the second owner. I agree. I also own a 2012 Durango with 150k miles, no issues. 🤔
I am a MOPAR person . My 90 B250 conversion was nearly flawless and would ddo things van's ain't supposed to do . Now my 2000 conversion had a serious problem . The computer fired on a exhaust stroke and bent a rod like a pretzel . Took it apart , did a inframe overhaul with racing parts , boy did that thing run nice , replaced the computer as well . It started acting up , dumped the van . Had 2 Durango's a 98 show truck and a 01 off roader . Really didn't have porblems but thing would break and I fixed them . If I could afford it I would get another Durango .
Whats his issue with dodge and Chrysler vehicles I have a 2006 dodge Durango limited 5.7 hemi v8 still runs PERFECT with 182,000 miles and never had a problem ever!!
Because you have a one in a million chance quality Chrysler car doesn't mean everyone does, they are usually quite bad, especially after Fiat bought them
06 is before fiat took over...i manage a shop and believe Chrysler products are absolute garbage ...as a matter of fact I agree with Scotty. Japanese is the way to go. Toyota's lexus honda acura I personally wont buy anything else. and my 08 tacoma has 296000 original engine and trans and a resale value of 6k to 7k private sale. an 11 year old vehicle with a higher resale than a 4 year old c class mercedes with under 80k miles
You are absolutely right. As a matter of fact and by coincidence my son asked me the day before yesterday if I could accompany him to San Antonio Texas to check out a 2012 Dodge Durango citadel that was for sale at a Toyota dealership. When we arrived at the dealership they informed us that the vehicle was at the dodge dealer for a recall 30 minutes later they informed us that the recall was for the air bags and that there was no resolution to the problem and that they couldn't sell it to the public like that, it had to go to auction. Since we traveled 160 miles and to not have it be a waste of time we searched the internet and found three others. They were R/Ts with the 5.7 hemi. To make a long story short all three were giant POS's. The main problems were with engine control issues. Mostly with the (multiple displacement system) which cuts the engine From 8 to 4 cylinders for fuel economy.
When the fuel pump on my 92 Explorer started to go out it would restart after about 10 minutes. I chased that problem for a long time but the clue was that it would only happen on a hot day with less than half a tank of gas.
Dad had an 03 dodge 1500....ate water pumps once a year, got a valve job...at 300k it was falling apart. Had to put so many band aid repairs on it. He always had fords before that truck and went back to a 13 f150. Problem solved 😁
I bought a brand new 2011 Durango when it got redesigned. Thing looked sexy as hell and fast as hell with the hemi but unreliable as hell too. Can’t tell you how many times it wouldn’t start for no apparent reason and the build quality was horrible- body panels wouldn’t line up, plastics split. That was my first and last Dodge! Traded it in for a Honda.
1997 4x4 Dakota 5.2 , 158000 miles no motor, transmission, computer or alternator problems . original water pump, fuel pump, never been stranded on the road. I did replace the power steering pump this year.
Man to be fair about things, both GM and Ford have problems with their vehicles as well Scotty boy. It's true but unfortunate that we do not build very good quality vehicles anymore, so anyone who is not in denial should be able to admt that fact is true and it's not just dodge
I owned a 2012 Durango R/T. This thing would run and drive fine most of the time, however once in awhile it wouldn't recognize the key fob and wouldn't start up. I took it to the dealer they wanted to replace the alternator which I thought was crazy. I did my own research and turned out it had a faulty pcm. The dealer actually took my advice and replaced the PCM thankfully it was still under warranty. All has been great since. I just found it funny because I asked them to check the PCM and they told me it wasn't that. After going back a 2nd time going there they replaced it for me. I wouldn't have went back if it wasn't under warranty but when I called Chrysler they told me to go back to the dealer to have it replaced there.
You Never hear Scotty talking about how the"90's"Dodge Ram truck(s)were a very good Reliable engine/vehicle,I Love my 318 5.2 v8,a well constructed engine @ that time!
Barney Ruble my father in law Had a Dakota 5.2 square body and sounded good It always broke the uJoints on the drive shaft But he had it for ever No oil cap never spill oil lol
I bet it is, I've done 2 Durango's, and 3 Grand Caravans in the last 2 months for that intermittent stall. No come backs yet after putting in the relay.
Maybe (I'm not a mechanic, just an amateur), the troube codes came from the moments the car run out of electric power. Those sensors get low voltage and start to send erractic signals.
All I drive is a mopar. Each minivan, stratus, or cirrus which has been a total of 8 has all lasted 200,00-around 239,000 with very little issues. The current 2016 Citadel the wife drives has 196,000 no codes, but it has had it's share of issues. Maximum Care has repaired everything on Citadel 100.00 deductible :)
it's not the alternator....we have seen 13 Chrysler Dodge and Jeep products with the same issue...its programming issues...we have had oscopes and scantool hooked up and had the problem produce itself on a roadtest. the injectors lost ground on some and the ignition lock cylinder stopped input on others but it all came down to reflashing the software's to get the vehicle to work again. took a week to trace on the first one
@@srt8310 Dodge sucks on the programming/electrical side. My 2014 Charger RT had numerous issues with The MDS, Alternator and then when i had a tuner to override that crap it wouldn't work because dodge locks the PCM. you need a $1100 PCM on top of a simple $300 tune any other sportscar can handle no problem. Oh and dodge at first will fight anybody for the alternator recall. they never wanted to honor it till the damn letter came in took em a damn while what a pain man never again.
Great video. We bought a 2022 Dodge Durango RT, best driving vehicle we’ve ever owned and the hemi engine sounds amazing. We owned 2 Jeep Grand Cherokees before and they both had issues. Hopefully, we’ll have better luck.
Another good trick is to look for U0100 network comms codes. The module without them is the one shutting down. I tracked down a random hard shift on an Allison to a bad firewall pass through using this method. The vehicle would hit a bump just right, the bulkhead connector would unseat, and the trans module would turn off.
My 2002 Durango had an issue where it would shut off completely for seemingly no reason. It was the ground on the back of the PCM. When I moved from New Jersey to North Carolina, the change in temperature and humidity messed with it. Took forever to find out and NC "Master Mechanics" were no help. Other than that my Durango is sitting at 167k miles and running strong (knock on wood). I love the thing because it is a tank. Everyone that has hit me has totaled their vehicle while I get to drive mine home with minor scratches lol.
I bought a new 2018 Durango..... hit 16k miles and drive shaft connecting to transmission leak oil as if the car is on its menstrual cycle. Got rid of that POS

I have a better way, I bought a Toyota Highlander instead.
@@skinner321 yeah but Toyota's need work too. Once I hit 300k I rebuilt the engine and transmission. 30 years and I guess it's inevitable?

I had 99 problems and my Ram was all...
Lol
I had a 99 Dodge Durango 5.9 Liter 4WD A lot of money in and it barely squeaked past 100K miles. It died a slow death as I drove it to a Toyota dealer to claim my cash for clunkers benefit. Still driving my 2009 Highlander just regular maintenance 150k miles and it runs like a top, not one leak anywhere does not burn oil starts every time. ymmv
I got 99 problems and a Toyota Celica ain't got one.
i have serious problems and my car don't have not one of em.... good or bad i'm not sure
TheDeathTank01 You must be a bachelor.
Scotty is a great mechanic for showing his customer how to get the defective alternator replaced for free. A lot of sorry mechanics would not have cared enough to do that.
Tab: trigger fault caused by the programming. Scotty: being a dodge that doesn't surprise me. Savage!
"It's a typical Chrysler...it has 23 seperate fault codes", lol 😂
@Douglas Hamner why? Because he speaks the truth? 😂 You own a Chrysler huh?
The recalled fuel pump relay is complete garbage..
I purchased a $20 relay and another that's in glove box... Haven't had a problem since..
A buddy of mine did the same exact thing lol.
Same here. Got a spare relay on me smh
Sometimes aftermarket pieces work better because theyve been tested.
Wonder if this is what’s wrong with my friends challenger, started not starting after filling the gas tank at only 20k miles, took it to the dealership multiple times and they couldn’t figure it out so they gave him a check basically saying he couldn’t sue them or use the lemon law. I’ve been buying used Lexus with over 100k and driving them past 200k before trading them for a new one and I haven’t had as many problems as he’s had with his brand new challenger lol

The current 3.6 v6, 5.7 and 6.4 v8 great motors
They always do!

I respect you for having the patience to work on that pile of garbage on wheels.
Man, Scotty is cranking out vids like crazy, always good stuff. Never redundant. Keep it going sir!!
It's just a recall for alternator. Its free. Dodge's aren't bad.
(Toyota had gas pedal that gets stuck floored and exploding airbags while driving but i mean toyota is perfect. Who cares if your car flew into river or airbag exploding while driving
bigger problem is alternator. Of course this was sarcasm. Toyota is great but other car manufacturers are also great. Scotty is great mechanic but why always "because it's dodge this is wrong".
Take for example dodge demon you can do hundreds of burnouts and still drive home normally.
Every car has good and bad things. Don't hate car because of one thing. Scotty should just say people if you have durango check the recalls.
FINALLY someone understands!
Don’t forget about the Prius brake problems.
I believe it was the Prius.
I remember one of Toyota compact cars had a brake issue.
Don't forget Corolla CVT recalls.
Bought a 2013 durango 9 years ago, brand new, now with 200,000 miles, have only replaced the thermostat, and rear main seal, other than that no issues
@@a25gonzaable that's what im saying. 99.5% of people never have issues.
2011 Durango Crew awd 3.6 had a recall on it for relay to the pump for this very reason. It was replaced. And have a recall on the new one also. Had the Alt.
Replace also on a recall.
Scotty is right the central computer programming is to blame for these. I had a 2011 Citadel after 3 years of owning it I started having these issues.
- replaced the alternator
- recalled the fuel pump relay (then it started not shutting off the fuel pump after engine stop (would come out to 1/8th a tank less)
- multiple recalls to replace the sunroof wiring harness (possibility of setting the car on fire)
- Central computer was replace 3 times
- Recalls for the possibility of the engine not shutting off on rollover (programming issue)
- Recalls for the possibility of air bags not deploying on crash or deploying randomly!
- Adaptive Cruise Control would freak out anytime I passed another dodge
I've lived inside and out of an engine bay since I could turn a wrench. I'm also in IT and I actually got the car to exhibit the conditions while decelerating down an off ramp form 65 to a 25 mile an hour turn Engine stall (confirmed with scanner at the dealer that it thought it has rolled over) computer replaced.
I was contacted by a law firm that is doing lemon law on I think 2010-2014 but it would have taken 18 months or more SO... I traded it and learned my lesson.
They look cool they have power but they are literally death traps.
The first year they came out some had issues. I have had three dodges without issue
Thanks Scotty for another useful video! Rev up your electrical nightmare !!!

The scanner missed Fault 1. Chrysler Motor Corporation.
Well the emblem displays that, so I assume the scanner figured you'd already noticed that.
When I first heard the problem with this truck, my first guess would have been the Cam Positioning Sensor was bad....but I see differently now. This video gave me a lot more to think about. Thanks Scotty!!
I have had two Dodge Vehicles, Both were Double Lemons--first one was 1978 dodge truck right off the showroom floor-it must have been built on a Monday or Friday, to many problems to list. Then wife wanted a small gas efficient car so in 1985 we bought a New Dodge K-car with a 4 cylinder-a nightmare of a car, had to be towed by dealer 3 times in one year and things got worse after that--finally Traded it in on a Ford Taurus V-6, Best Decision that we ever made--Great car for over 10 years....

Here to leave a pro dodge comment. My Durango and Dart have been nothing but reliable. The chevys and fords ive owned had nothing but problems.
325,000 miles on my 2008 Dodge Ram 1500! Still completely original drivetrain, and never had a issue!
You two are the lucky one two percentile of Chrysler owners that never experienced problems. Not a very good percentage to encourage me to buy one.
Scotty there is always one fault code that keeps popping up whenever you have a problem with a Chrysler/Dodge product. It's the "Your Fault" for buying one code that people just seem to ignore.
I'm at 196k miles on my 2014 Charger and have been lucky thus far with my control modules. That said, there was some fun and games hunting down codes and replacing sensors after my fuel pump crapped out 10k miles ago. Gotta love modern sensor-controlled everything...
2019 Durango GT w/19k miles. In CC, Pressing Cruise Control “resume”, all dash lights went out. Toggling dimmer wheel, came back on instantly. Same day, Auto Engine Stop upon restart the engine rev’d free as if in Neutral. Shifting up and back into Drive the trans engaged. Not confidence inspiring.
Dodge Durangos are a good looking hunk of junk. Total waste of money.
They look like a fat 2013 dodge dart
I have always liked how they look. Wouldnt ever rely on one though.
*Endless Money Pit*
@ not the new ones
"Oh did you thought this is just Large Grand cherokee? I beg to differ" - Chrysler
Scotty, after the customer gets a new alternator, please let us know if your diagnosis was successful.
don't hold yer breath!!!!!!!!! I
You didn't watch the video carefully. He still thinks it might not clear it up and says the main circuit board is probably bad too.
He dodged the video as well
I knew it. I have a ‘14 Durango. I got a letter in the mail for this same recall. Fortunately, for me, I didn’t take any chances with this and I got the alternator changed right away. The thought of driving down the highway and my vehicle completely dying scared the crap out of me.
2011,2012& 2014 weren’t good years for the dodge durango
I had a Jeep with a similar problem, I finally figured out it was the crank sensor.
Have a 2013 SXT - same exact thing happening to me.
There’s a common recall on many of these years - the fuel pump relay.
It could be that, or a faulty ground. Both are very common. Also the ignition is VERY sensitive, and even the slightest graze against it can make it shut off.
Good video
I just called a dealership today about a great price on a 2012 SXT Durango. It has 96,000 miles. Should I avoid this vehicle? Did you have your issues resolved?
@@mc540flip Eh I don’t know. I think you should.
My issues never resolved. In addition to the stalling I ended up cracking my transfer case, which is a $2500 repair. I never fixed it as I had enough and just traded it in for a 2018 Ford Edge SEL which has been a wonderful vehicle so far. Much better than the Durango.
My other big gripe with those year’s Durangos is that the SXT’s V6 offered almost NO pickup/pep. They revamped their V6 around 2018 to make it a reasonable acceleration. The vehicle is just too big for less than 280 hp
@@mc540flip I think you should avoid it I mean.

all my Chrysler's run up to 300k plus don't have issues like this. explain that.
@@wkdravenna I bet you most of those codes are pending codes for computers since it wasn't running when he scanned it. Fun fact for people some vehicles, especially European designed have to be running to get the correct faults without pending codes. That Durango is a Mercedes computer made in Germany.

@may day well my brother had a 2001 Durango with the 4.7l magnum he offroad in that thing. He built his own bumpers, put an actual suspension lift to fit 37in tires. It was awesome offroad.

myob Ed Or better yet, trade it for a good vehicle.
@@tedschmitt178 now what would be a good vehicle equivalent to a Durango
Stupid idea.
I used to own an old 1998 Dodge Grand Caravan Sport. Had issues where it just wouldn't start. A mechanic told me this vehicle had an issue with solder points on its circuit board under the dash. He said I had two options. The first was spend a lot of money and have the dash pulled and have circuit board resoldered. Second was just beat my fist on the dash to jostle the circuit board and then try starting the vehicle. The latter worked quite well and was a whole lot cheaper!
I've got a 2018 RT with 75000km and zero issues. I do some preventative maintenance like condition based oil changes and trans/diff, filters, etc.
My Jeep Cherokee XJ used to do that, and it turns out that it was the crankshaft position sensor.
The biggest problem with the Dodge Durango is it's a Dodge Durango.
DisneyChannelFlow *it’s a Chrysler*
@Richi RIch The Durango doesn't have a single Fiat part in it believe it or not since it hasn't been refreshed since 2011. Dodge's are fine, just steer clear from any car they have that has been updated in the past year or 2 and they will last up to 150k.
Scotty you should do a giveaway a 94 mint toyota celica 😭
Mauricio Narcia you think Scotty would give that car up? He’d be driving that thing himself!
My Dodge journey needed the whole 8 inch screen replaced. Thank you extended warranty. Replaced and sold to CarMax. Now both are Lexus in our garage

@@richsweeney1115 Agreed. Had good power, awesome interior, and good space for our small family. Thing was a true FIAT though as far as reliability
I know this is an unpopular opinion but you guys have to understand that Scotty is a mechanic and mechanics tend to hate the cars they work on the most(believe it or not). As a Dodge owner, I will say Dodge loves to cheap out on some of their parts and it shows(which is ironic because when Dodge first became a company the whole point was to build high-quality cars that were better than what Ford made) With that said the car has never had any major problems and only has had minor problems along the way and overall has been a great car.
"They have computer problems up the wazoo as they age." LOL!
Not as many as Mercedes
Also the rams have alot of electrical problems. I'll stick to gm.
2005 Dodge Durango 4.7L owner here. My Durango has a bad Body Control Module (Chrysler calls this a Central Timing Module). When the car is parked the dome lights randomly turn off and on. Sometimes the dome lights never act up when parked but most times they do. When driving, the door ajar dashboard light (along with the dome lights) randomly turns off and on which also makes the doors lock and unlock if driving faster than 15 MPH. I am sending the CTM in to G7 Computers soon. They will fix the module for $275. I will have a video on my channel soon with this story.
Great video Scotty. Would love to see more of these kind of videos where you fix customers cars . would make great viewing and also learn things . Thank you
Rev up your Durango.... if it starts.
I have two friends with V6 Dodge Chargers, both 10 years old with more than 120k miles, both have been bullet proof outside of suspension parts, no break-downs or power-train issues. Obviously Chryslers can be prone to reliability issues, but it'd be a lie to say they don't make ANY solid vehicles.
I have a V6 2007 Charger with 215k miles for my daily. No issues, I'm the second owner. I agree. I also own a 2012 Durango with 150k miles, no issues. 🤔
I am a MOPAR person . My 90 B250 conversion was nearly flawless and would ddo things van's ain't supposed to do . Now my 2000 conversion had a serious problem . The computer fired on a exhaust stroke and bent a rod like a pretzel . Took it apart , did a inframe overhaul with racing parts , boy did that thing run nice , replaced the computer as well . It started acting up , dumped the van . Had 2 Durango's a 98 show truck and a 01 off roader . Really didn't have porblems but thing would break and I fixed them . If I could afford it I would get another Durango .
So what your saying is they should of went straight to Dodge and probably would of got it fixed right away

Other than 1 or 2 new transmissions 😉😉
It will. One day it will just start shutting off. Mine had 164,000 miles before any drivetrain issues.
You are absolutely right. As a matter of fact and by coincidence my son asked me the day before yesterday if I could accompany him to San Antonio Texas to check out a 2012 Dodge Durango citadel that was for sale at a Toyota dealership. When we arrived at the dealership they informed us that the vehicle was at the dodge dealer for a recall 30 minutes later they informed us that the recall was for the air bags and that there was no resolution to the problem and that they couldn't sell it to the public like that, it had to go to auction. Since we traveled 160 miles and to not have it be a waste of time we searched the internet and found three others. They were R/Ts with the 5.7 hemi. To make a long story short all three were giant POS's. The main problems were with engine control issues. Mostly with the (multiple displacement system) which cuts the engine From 8 to 4 cylinders for fuel economy.
When the fuel pump on my 92 Explorer started to go out it would restart after about 10 minutes. I chased that problem for a long time but the clue was that it would only happen on a hot day with less than half a tank of gas.
Dad had an 03 dodge 1500....ate water pumps once a year, got a valve job...at 300k it was falling apart. Had to put so many band aid repairs on it. He always had fords before that truck and went back to a 13 f150. Problem solved 😁
If its eating water pumps then you have another issues. Did he pull a lot of weight
Yea give me a car with computer controls cause we know computers never fail yea sign me up!
Sounds like the TIPM, fuel pump relay, intermittent problem.
Yup
Nah. That’s an interm crank no start. Not a stalling concern.
I bought a brand new 2011 Durango when it got redesigned. Thing looked sexy as hell and fast as hell with the hemi but unreliable as hell too. Can’t tell you how many times it wouldn’t start for no apparent reason and the build quality was horrible- body panels wouldn’t line up, plastics split. That was my first and last Dodge! Traded it in for a Honda.

BlackBeltShodan or a 2020 tundra
I owned a 2012 Durango R/T. This thing would run and drive fine most of the time, however once in awhile it wouldn't recognize the key fob and wouldn't start up. I took it to the dealer they wanted to replace the alternator which I thought was crazy. I did my own research and turned out it had a faulty pcm. The dealer actually took my advice and replaced the PCM thankfully it was still under warranty. All has been great since. I just found it funny because I asked them to check the PCM and they told me it wasn't that. After going back a 2nd time going there they replaced it for me. I wouldn't have went back if it wasn't under warranty but when I called Chrysler they told me to go back to the dealer to have it replaced there.

Maybe (I'm not a mechanic, just an amateur), the troube codes came from the moments the car run out of electric power. Those sensors get low voltage and start to send erractic signals.

Another good trick is to look for U0100 network comms codes. The module without them is the one shutting down. I tracked down a random hard shift on an Allison to a bad firewall pass through using this method.

My 2002 Durango had an issue where it would shut off completely for seemingly no reason. It was the ground on the back of the PCM.
