2020 Dodge Durango Electrical Problems

Your rear taillights are collecting water inside, making it hard for other drivers to see when you brake. Additionally, your engine experienced power failure at 85,000 miles due to worn cams and lifters on the driver's side—a repair shop indicated this shouldn't happen at that mileage and that Dodge has declined warranty coverage. Fixing this will likely require replacing the camshaft, lifters, and possibly resealing the taillight housings to prevent water intrusion.

Your Dodge Durango's TIPM (Totally Integrated Power Module) is faulty, causing your engine to crank but not start multiple times daily. The dealer has confirmed the problem and found a melted fuse inside the TIPM, which is a serious electrical concern. Without check engine lights appearing, the issue is difficult to diagnose on your own. The fix will likely involve replacing the TIPM unit entirely.

Your tailgate's racetrack lighting (the decorative light strip) has water trapped inside it, which has caused both the racetrack lights and license plate light to stop working. Dodge has refused to repair or replace the tailgate despite multiple requests. This is a cosmetic and functional lighting issue that affects your vehicle's appearance and visibility of the license plate at night.

While driving the engine began to vibrate violently and the check engine light turned on. Luckily I was close to the dealership because I live in a small town with one major road. I was able to quickly slow down without crashing or causing an accident and slowly drove to dealership. If I was at any significant speed I could have crashed injuring myself and my two small children.

The start stop system is the Durango is terrible! That was my first problem. My second issue is, out of nowhere. We now have inner engine issues. The engine will not hold compression, but there are no leaks! I have only had a vehicle for six months! Now I am paying on a vehicle. I cannot drive and cannot afford fix!
