My gas peddle got stuck and when I hit the brake peddle it would not brake . I hit a car in front of and the brakes would not work . There's a recall on the throttle on the durango's . I had taken my durango to the shop and I told them that the durango was sounding wierd that it felt like something was skipping . But they said nothing was wrong .
