2018 Dodge Durango Exterior Lighting

Track lighting starting to fail. Water accumulation inside the bottom passenger side of track light. 44,000 miles on vehicle. No damage. Presents safety issue with rear visibility. Can cause short in wiring, causing potential fire.

Water Intrusion caused rear lift gate "racetrack light" tail lights including license plate lights to become inoperable. This poses an obvious risk to safety as the lighting is relied upon by drivers, in dark conditions, to detect the rear of my vehicle. If a driver behind me were to fail to detect the rear of my vehicle, in dark conditions, they could easily collide with the rear of my vehicle. If this were to happen, there is a great possibility that persons in either vehicle could be seriously injured or killed. A simple Google search of this issue would reveal that there are hundreds if not thousands of complaints on the same issue. So far dodge has refused to acknowledge this manufacturer's defect or the possible safety implications it can cause.

THE RACETRACK LIGHT BAR (ATTACHED TO THE DECK LID) HAS GOTTEN WATER INSIDE IT, (IT WAS THIS WAY WHEN I BOUGHT IT) AND NOW THE LIGHT IS NO LONGER WORKING. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE DODGE DURANGO, AS I HAVE SEEN MULTIPLE PEOPLE WHO ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM.

JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR IN AUGUST. I DIDN'T NOTICE THE ENTIRE REAR RED LIGHTS WEREN'T WORKING UNTIL I GOT PULLED OVER. I'M GUESSING THEY DIDN'T WORK AT ALL AND I JUST DIDN'T NOTICE IT.

REAR 'RACETRACK' LIGHTING AND LICENSE PLATE LIGHTING SHORTS OUT AND DOES NOT FUNCTION. THIS IS CAUSED BY WATER LEAKING INTO AND BEING RETAINED IN THE ASSEMBLY. THIS ISSUE IS THOROUGHLY DOCUMENTED IN A VARIETY OF ONLINE FORUMS. WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE INOPERATIVE, THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE IS VERY DARK AND POSSES A SAFETY ISSUE BY INCREASING THE CHANCES OF A REAR END COLLISION.
