2002 Dodge Durango SLT review from North America

"BAD PCM 02 DURANGO"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I have a 2002 Dodge Durango. My steering wheel had a lot of play in it and was just getting worse. It ended up being that I needed a new sector shaft and I had a loose tie rod end. My mechanic fixed them both and this fixed the steering problem for about $600.

I recently been having a problem with my durango shifting properly. Took it to get diagnosed and the car was stuck in 4th gear and would not shift. It would start out in 4th gear and would shift into overdrive. It ended up being the Power Control Module (PCM). The transmission shop wanted to charge $850 to order and install a new one. That was way out of my budget since I just put $600 into the steering. I went on Ebay and found a re-manufactured one for $199 (Free Shipping) from "All Computers." You give them the year, vin#, and mileage of your vehicle and the flash it and update it for you. It's a very easy install, but I had my mechanic put it in for $85 due to the fact its 5 degrees outside! He installed it for me and fixed all of the problems. My durango has never ran better and getting better gas mileage too. My check engine light has always been on for about a year and the new PCM fixed whatever else was causing the light to come on. My durango rides great now and I saved a ton of money!
