1998 Dodge Durango SLT review from North America
"Awful"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to have a new computer put in it at 69,000 miles.
The ball joints on it are going bad now.
My electric windows in the back don't work all the time. Only one window will work once in awhile, but not too often.
General comments?
I would not recommend anyone buying this make and model of vehicle. When my computer went out, I had it at two different Dodge dealerships and they both told me nothing was wrong with it. Luckily, I have a friend who works at another Dodge dealership bring his computer over and hook my Durango up to it. The computer pulled up that I needed a new computer for it. It was still under warranty so it was covered. But the point being with me only owning it for 7 months and it only had 69,000 miles on it, it should not have needed a new computer.
