Vehicle will not starts (even though it cranks). The problem as with previous model year Durangos is the Fuel Pump Relay (FPR) inside the Total Integrated Power Module (TIPM). On previous model year Durangos (2011-2013) they have been recalled because if the fuel pump power supply is cut when the vehicle is in motion it could cause an accident. Luckily this condition has not happened to me. Sometimes the vehicle do start and if I use it it has not turned off by itself up to now. The TIPMs were redesigned on 2014-2015 but the fuel pump relay problem carries on. Please have FCA recall these vehicles as well with the FPR inside the TIPM failing. Thank you.
Vehicle came to an abrupt stop on road. I was unable to get my vehicle into neutral or drive to safely move my vehicle to the side of the road. After several failed attempts to restart my vehicle, a tow truck company had to tow my vehicle. My Fuel pump was bad and had to be replaced. A mechanic told me it is rare for a fuel pump to go bad in a vehicle with less than 100,000 miles on it.
The fuel pump system has failed. The vehicle will turn over but will not start, it tries to start but keeps dying out as it's cranking over. My vehicle is the only means of transportation for myself and kids.
1. Air bag continuously pops up whenever driving, I have received multiple emails from westgate and taken to them with no repair. Recent accident airbag did not work. 2. I am unable to open gas tank from inside, I literally have to get out go to back of truck and pull a lever, I found out how to do this by another owner who did it on youtube. I almost got hit by car twice. 3. I was in a car accident where I ran into a Mini mall, I pulled up and parked then the car just took off on own, it happen so fast and only thing I our police could think was I pushed wrong peddle but I did not, I did take to westgate for repairs, there was a recall and was never reimbursed for $500 deductible or pain/suffering
Whenever I pump gas recently the gas pump never shuts off and just spills gas everywhere until I click the handle. I took it to the dealer and they said they never heard of that. I went ahead and had them check it out. About $2000 later and a new gas tank and fuel filler neck the problem was solved. How this was never recalled I don't know. I had gas pouring out everywhere before it was fixed!
