2019 Dodge Durango Engine

Oil cooler failure .I am concerned because my mechanic says this is a common problem with this type of motor. Why isn't it recall.

Twice this year this has happened. I was driving to work when suddenly the lights on the dash came on and the car started over heating. There was a ton of engine coolant under the car. Took the car to get repaired. They said the coolant lines rub against something under the car and caused a hole. They said it was a defect in the way the car is designed and there is nothing to hold up the coolant lines running to the rear of the vehicle. They told us we needed to contact dodge and file a claim. We did and heard nothing back from them. Fast forward 6 months and it happens again. Car is currently at a dodge dealership. Same issue. Filed another complaint and claim with them. Its been 3 weeks. 0 response. Car is still at the dealership.

I was driving my vehicle and the engine light came on and the car started overheating. I had to immediately pull over. There was fluid underneath my Vehicle again. This occurred twice in 6 months. The engine coolant lines have a whole in them. This is the 2nd repair for the same issue in 6 months. The Vehicle has been sitting for over 3 weeks at dodge. They have not answered or responded to our claims. The Vehicle poses a safety risk as it instantly overheats and you lose power. The coolant lines under the Vehicle are not secured at all and rub against other parts under the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2019 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled. The contact pulled over to the side of the road, exited the vehicle, and saw smoke coming from under the hood. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to a dealer. The vehicle was diagnosed with a coolant leak, and the contact was informed that the radiator and radiator hoses needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The contact stated that the engine was overheating after the vehicle was repaired. The contact replaced the thermostat himself. The contact also stated that the vehicle was leaking oil. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 81,843.

The contact owns a 2019 Dodge Durango. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, an unknown fluid was seen leaking from the vehicle and running down the driveway. The contact stated that the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic that found the failure as a factory install clamp that was placed too close to a tube causing a hole. The vehicle was not repaired as the vehicle was awaiting a tow to the dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised that the vehicle be taken to an authorized dealer for diagnosis. The failure mileage was 62,180.

Coolant leak, due to water pump failure , has 61000 miles There are other older models that already have extended warranties for same issues This should apply to newer models as this issue persists

From my understanding, I went to several different mechanics who all said the same thing. 2019 and maybe older years, the way the truck was made, the coolant hose runs all the way from the resovoir to the back of the truck which is causing a metal pipe and the coolant hose to touch and when the metal pipe gets hot, it’s eating at the hose cause a significant leakage under the truck. And the hose is behind the vent under the truck which means pieces would need to get removed from the truck in order to get to the hose.

Upon making slow turn I experiance a rapid unintended acceleration. Engine raced to about 4000 RPM. In order to get vehicle under control brakes were applied to maximum and vehicle was shifted into neutral which caused engine to throttle higher but driver was able to turn off vehicle and safely come to a stop. After restarting vehicle throttle reurned to normal functioning. I was lucky there were no other vehicles around or a wreck would have happened. I do not know if this related to recall 22V426000. `Dodge dealeership advised that there currenlly is no fix for this recall. If this incident is related to the recall Dodge needs to find a fix ASAP.+
