 Description of the problemI have been reading the complaints on the front suspension of the dodge durango after hearing that the vehicle was being investigated for problems with the front suspension and have spent a lot of money fixing the same problems that are being described. My abs light came on intermittently, would stay on for awhile, then go out. When the car was put on the computer, they couldn't find anything. Then my speedometer started jumping from 0 to 60 mph intermittently. Through trial and error, a sensor was replaced and seems to have fixed the problem. I have also spent almost $1000 replacing brakes, etc. Because my brakes went to the floor while driving, luckily only in a parking lot, and the calipers, brakes, rotors, etc. Had to be replaced. I just replaced my tires because of severe cupping. These tires were not that old and this condition would cause my vehicle to hydroplane in wet weather and shudder going 50 mph and over. I also experience that same shudder when the back windows are open and the front windows closed. The whole vehicle vibrates terribly, unless you crack the front windows also.
