What owners wrote
My 2006 dodge durango stalled out in the middle of traffic and caused me to be injured in a rear end collision because my PCM shut my engine down per design of the vehicle because my oil sending unit had a faulty wire and my PCM thought I didn't have any oil in my car which disabled my car completely by design of the manufacturer to keep my engine from damage because it thought I had. O oil. I have a faulty design product and not enough warning.
Car steered right (right wheel in to keep car straight) and pulled left when braking (had to turn the wheel when braking to keep straight). Rack and pinion box wasn't holding torque. Replaced it, intermediate steering shaft and steering box. 22,880 miles.
