1999 Dodge Durango XLT review from North America
"I would consider purchasing another one in the future"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The most annoying & continual problem is the pinging, lack of power, & oil burns fast.
The power mirrors tend to only work after the vehicle has been running and very warmed-up.
The vehicle shifts into gear at high RP M's.
The ABS & brake lights stay on & the speedometer no longer works.
General comments?
After reading other similar problems, I will try replacing the Intake Center Gasket for the performance problems and replace the rear speed sensor for the control problems.
The vehicle is a great family car for those who are not quite ready to drive a van. Very comfortable & roomy for a family of five.
The mirrors & side of the front window have large blind spots.
