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.

About These NHTSA Complaints:
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Over the life of the vehicle exact same year make and model I have seen more than 1500 complaints of the ignition issues involving the key mechanism on this vehicle. Some complaints have warned of potential for the vehicle to shutdown while being driven. My vehicle stalled out in traffic it would appear the key had slipped back to the off position. Soon after when attempting to restart the vehicle it would not start but sound as if it were trying to start. I believe Dodge is avoiding trying to avoid address these issues and just how wide spread this issue has become.
