Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Progressively worse engine idle at stops on '06 durango w/ 5.7 hemi. when stopping at light/sign, engine will drop from (normal) around 700rpm to below 500 rpm and feels like its about to stall. it will then come up to 500rpm (rough idle) and fluctuate between 450 and 550. if i give at a little gas, it will come up to normal rpm and stay. dealer says they couldn't get any codes or find problems, however they saw same symptoms when turning wheel. after researching, i found that this same problem has been reported for '04 & '05 5.7 hemi's and has some vehicles stalling during a turn in intersection (this is a potentially fatal defect). dealer confirmed that chrylser is aware of a problem and has no fix for it. the dealer had me pick up the vehicle to use until a fix is available. *nm
