2017 Dodge Durango Transmission Problems

While I was merging onto the freeway with my daughter, I accelerated to a speed of 60 MPH and it felt like my transmission dropped. My car was revving at 5k RPM’s and would not allow me to go any faster than 45 MPH. Luckily no accident occurred as I was able to safely get my child and myself off the freeway.

Tl* the contact owns a 2017 dodge durango. The contact stated that the transmission gears constantly seized without warning. In addition, when the accelerator pedal was depressed there was a delay with the transmission gears changing over and the vehicle accelerating, creating the risk of a potential crash.

When the car is put into park and you exit it will sometimes still drive forward. When switching into reverse or park the car sometimes locks up and wont more. The rpms go up but its still as if its in park.

No accident happened yet but I believe one will. This car is equipped with a rotary transmission selector for drive by wire transmission and has an auto engine stop start feature. This start stop feature can be disabled after the vehicle is started, but cannot be set by default to disable this feature.

While driving, the transmission gave out. There was no prior indication of any issue - no warning light and no different noise. The car wouldn't change gears, which was an extremely dangerous situation in traffic.

Leaving a friends house my '17 dd with 32k miles stalled out while I was in a turn lane on a busy street just at an intersection leading to the highway. The dash lit up with several likes and the only light I could catch was 'power steering issue car will cut off soon' the car was still in the 'run' position and turning to 'off' or 'acc' was not engaging.

Vehicle has transmission gear issue or software problem when downshifting. Car is supposedly learning to driving habit but transmission shifting jerks especially when you are decreasing speed behind car in front and as it is fully stopped and engages into idle(1) it jerks harshly to point of almost hitting car in front.

Car stopped at idle for a few minutes - check engine light came on, tried to shift into reverse - light on shift indicator and dash blinked, no reverse. Tried drive - light on shifter and dash blinked, no drive. Luckily I was in a parking lot, but if this had happened on an interstate?

Just bought the vehicle two months ago and have had to replace multiple things on the vehicle. The first issue was the diming lights and passenger window rolling down while driving along with remote start not working got that fixed now the car wants to turn on when it feels like it.

I have reported my car not going in the gear selected and instead going into neutral or park. It has also driven forward when in park. There has also been issues with the auto park not always working if door is opened and the car is in gear.

After two days of use and three hundred total miles on my vehicle I discovered an oil leak. Vehicle was taken to the dealership where the technicians informed me that the leak from the rear main seal on the transmission. The vehicle was repaired, the next morning I notice oil leaking from the same area.

Transmission has parts that wear out fast causing transmission to completely go out.

When driving on the freeway I went to accelerate the car then begin to accelerate by itself even when I was hitting the brakes it would not slow down. Finally after a few seconds it slowed down. About a week after that started feeling like the transmission was having issues.

Gear shift will shift from park to drive. Vehicle was parked while running and shifted to drive without anyone in the vehicle. Vehicle also shifted out of gear while stopped at a traffic signal.

When I driving or just hit the gas it feel like my rear differential trying to jump out the car idk I'm pretty sure it has something to do with the halfshaft separation I definitely need to get this looked at because just got the car 3 days ago

This is a ongoing safety issue where I have almost been hit in a intersection from not being able to put the SUV in reverse. I have been able to duplicate the issue on multiple 2017 durangos to fca they say it is normal for the car to not go in revers from drive, I am driving wrong. There is only one way to rotate the selector from drive to revers.

Driving vechile stop at light truck shuts off and wont start back up gear shift is blinking even when shifted back to start vehicle failed to start. After 3x finally started and I could get out the road so dangerous

Complaint involving shifting problems. When I get in my car and I put in drive the light starts flashing and my vehicle does not move. I have to put in park turn off the vehicle and turn it back on and do it all over again until it finally catches the gears and lets me drive off.

I started to back out of my daughters garage and felt the tire hit something. I didn't want to back over it so I pulled forward, put the vehicle in park, opened the door and started to get out. I got one foot on the ground and the vehicle took off in reverse.
