I TOOK MY 01' DODGE DURANGO TO HARTZHEIM DODGE SERVICE CENTER FOR MY 90 THOUSAND MILE SERVICE, A COUPLE DAYS LATER THE "CHIME" CONSTANTLY GOES OFF , I TOOK IT BACK TO THE SERVICE CENTER 11/19/04 AND FOUND THAT THE MODULE "WORE OUT" THEY RECOMMENDED REPLACING CTM. I DECLINED, I FEEL THAT IT WAS THEIR MISTAKE AND I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY TO REPLACE CTM ($300) AND THE CHIME STILL KEEP SOUNDING AND NO LIGHTS ON DASH. I'M CONCERNED, MY ALARM AND ALL ELECTRICAL IS CONSTANTLY COMING AND GOING. NEED ADVISE. *JB

CAR HAS STALLED NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE DRIVING. THIS MEANS I HAVE VIRTUALLY NO STEERING AND NO BRAKES. A FEW TIMES IVE DRIVEN INTO CURBS TO KEEP FROM HITTING OTHER VEHICLES AND TO STOP MY VEHICLE. THIS WEEK IT HAPPENED FOUR TIMES IN ONE DAY WHILE TRAVELING ON CONGESTED STREETS. IT IS COMPLETELY RANDOM, HAPPENING ON RAINY DAYS, SUNNY DAYS HOT DAYS AND COLD DAYS. MY MECHANIC SAYS CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND I SHOULD TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. WHILE THAT'S MY NEXT STEP, THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING. AND IF CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM, WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL? *JB
