Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Oil pressure dropped, check engine light came on, pulled on & checked oil - ok. then lights came on again & durango stalled as we were pulling over on the interstate. towed to service center, sludge in engine, new engine $6000. regular oil changed were performed, should not have had sludge in engine. i have learned that there are hundreds of durango owners have had to pay thousands of dollars of unjustified charges because of dodge's failure to admit that the engines of some durangos develop sludge when you check the following websites you'll immediately see the pattern: consumeraffairs.com, nhtsa.gov, carsurvey.org, or simply google "oil pressure durango" or "durango sludge". *jb |
