I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC BECAUSE MY DASH LIGHT STOPPED WORKING. HE SAID THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE RECALL SHOULD COVER 2006 MODELS. WHEN WE RUN THE VIN NUMBER IT DOES NOT SHOW FOR MY VEHICLE BUT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR ALL OTHER 2006 DODGE DURANGO BECAUSE IT IS A FIRE RISK. CAN YOU PLEASE SEE IF THERE IS ANY WAY THAT MY VEHICLE JUST GOT MISSED.

IN USING SIGNAL LIGHTS, TURN LEFT SIGNAL ON TO TURN AND THE RIGHT DASH SIGNAL INDICATOR AS WELL AS RIGHT SIGNAL LIGHT FLASH. IF I MOVE THE TILT STEERING POSITION UP AND THEN BACK DOWN THE LIGHTS FUNCTION PROPERLY. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING IN THE STEERING WHEEL IS RUBBING WHENEVER ONE TURNS THE WHEEL. THE PREVIOUS OWNER BOUGHT THE TRUCK NEW AND IT HAPPENED TO HIM SEVERAL TIMES AS WELL. ALSO THE BALL JOINTS WERE ALL REPLACED BY PREVIOUS OWNER AT LESS THAN 30,000 MILES. NOW AT 55,000 MILES THE STRUTS, SHOCK ABSORBERS, REAR STABILIZER LINKS AND QUITE POSSIBLY SWAY BAR LINKS FRONT AND REAR NEED TO BE REPLACED. *TR

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
