What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2012 dodge durango. The contact stated that the vehicle was previously repaired at the tuttle click toftin chrysler dodge jeep ram dealer for taking a long time to crank. After unknown repairs were performed, the vehicle stalled while driving at various speeds. On one occasion, while driving approximately 35 MPH, the vehicle suddenly stalled. The contact stated that the failure occurred frequently and, in order to restart the vehicle, the gear shifter had to be placed in neutral or park.
While driving down a residential street the vehicle jumped into 4th gear. I was going about 10 MPH because I was approaching a stop sign. After I stopped I proceeded to take off and the vehicle hesitated. Once it started to move I noticed the vehicle jerked a little and moved really slow but the RPM was really high. I parked the vehicle and had it towed to a dodge shop near my house. They did a diagnostic test and told me they had to change the shift solenoid pack in the transmission.
