1998 Dodge Durango SLT review from North America
"A constant problem"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First transmission wouldn't shift, I put in KNW and thank god it worked after 60 miles of driving
ball joints were worn and I was liable to do a face dive around 53000miles
then the tires wore out at 53000miles ready for a new set now 90000 miles
then the differential bearings looked like someone put sand in it and hit it with a jack hammer
front brake pad blew up or off of the rivets and I scored the rotors
the fan clutch could be stopped with one finger while running
the speed sensor made my ABS and brake lights come on
now my windows won't budge I've replaced the circuit breaker and I'm looking for the relay I need help I'm looking for the problem, but all data doesn't help
and the paint is cracking.
General comments?
I'm a mechanic and work on my car more than the customers. I can't afford to fix my own car.
The best is the towing ability.
