 Description of the problemIn the past 6 months i have paid over $3500 in repairs on the dodge durango. I was told and had to replace both catalyst converters and all 4 o2 sensors. Then the starter went out causing me to replace it. Now for the 3rd time in 3 weeks, i had to have my vehicle towed and now it appears the issue may be the alternator. I noticed there was a recall for 2011 dodge durango 3. 6l, 160 amp alternators and i am not sure what amp my alternator is but my vehicle appears to have all the same issues as the vehicles that were under the recall, yet my vehicle is not included in the recall? I have been inconvenienced for 3 weeks now having to get rides to and from work and have had to cancel doctor appointments and school meetings due to the fact that both my husband and i need a vehicle and are having to share 1 vehicle with 5 kids. Our most recent issue occurred on easter sunday while traveling with all our children, the battery signal appeared on our vehicle began smoking from under the hood. To avoid injury, we have had it towed to the dodge dealership again for review. We have had 2 diagnostic checks going on a 3rd and no one is catching all the repeated issues. We have to replace the catalyst converter 2 times (november 2016 and april 2017), o2 sensors (november 2016), battery (january 2017), starter (april 2017) and now our newest issue has yet to be revealed but it appears it will be the alternator (april 2017). At what point will chrysler take full responsibility for all the issues with the 2011 dodge durango. Reimbursement for all we have had to pay for faulty issues with the 2011 dodge durango would be appreciated. All these issues developed after the faulty tipm that we have paid out of pocket for 2x as well.
