Owner Complaints (8)
On 1/19/2019, I went to brake while driving my dodge durango, and the car violently shook, made a revving noise, and accelerated. My foot was to the floor and the car would not stop. I hit two cars in front of me, which was the only way the car actually stopped moving, and it wasn't until I turned the car completely off that the noise and shaking stopped.

I was exiting a parking garage and applied my brake to stop to pay the parking fee. When I came to a stop the truck unexpectedly accelerated with my foot on the brake. I pushed as hard as I could on the foot brake but the engine was registering 4 to 5,000 rpms.

I started to proceed down the street and the accelerator appeared to stick and the engine started racing and I did not have any control of the vehicle speed. Also the RPM gauge was out of control. This last approximately five to ten seconds, and then the engine stopped racing, and returned to normal.

The adaptive cruise control (acc) applies the brakes and brings the vehicle to a stop when following another vehicle in traffic. If the vehicle ahead does not move forward within two seconds (unlikely in heavy traffic) the acc displays a message in the dash warning the driver to press the brake and then suddenly shuts off the acc and releases the brake causing the car to being to creep forward.
