Vehicle kept flooding out and would not start over a month period in October of 2005. Taken to a garage to be fixed. The computer showed no problem. After getting it started vehicle would be taken home and same problem repeated itself. After 3 trip to garage for same problem the vehicles PCM(engine control computer) has been replaced. Dealer advised that vehicle was 7000 miles over the 80000 mile warranty on that particular part. This vehicle has had problem after problem. From exhaust problems to timing chain assemblers failure to power door locks going out. I can not believe that chrylser was not aware of some of the problems in the 200 Dodge Durango.

A bolt head sheered off of the exhaust line/manifold connection causing an audible exhaust leak near the manifold. The dealer is charging $245 to repair the bolt including the tapping (removal) of the bolt and its replacement.

Upper and lower ball joints unusual wear, replaced at 70000 miles. Also dealer and oil change place said sludge in engine. I regularly change my oil, the intake maniford gasket blew and caused engine to knock and have sludge. Speed sensor in rear axle went bad, causing speedometer and ABS system failure.

Consumer was inside of a parking lot and smelled a strange odor coming from rear of vehicle. At this time she thought it was another vehicle. When she got out of vehicle, she noticed white smoke coming from underneath vehicle, and there was gasoline pouring from the pipe. There were no prior warnings vehicle was towed to the dealership.
