CarComplaints.com Notes: The third generation Durango is plagued by a defective TIPM, particularily in the 2011 and 2012 model years.
TIPM, which stands for Totally Integrated Power Modules, is responsible for controlling and distributing power to all the vehicle’s electrical functions. So when your TIPM goes haywire, bad things start happening. Things like your water pump can stop working, your engine can stall out and your airbags can randomly deploy.
It took 40000 miles and the drive shaft to come separated before they found the problem. Then used the old bolts when they replaced the new drive shaft causing the drive shaft to drop out the bottom of the car while driving down the highway at 75 mph with my children and dogs in the car.
