Buying a used 2021 Dodge Durango? Check these 8 recalls first

8 NHTSA recalls · 199 owner complaints on file

This is the heaviest recall year among these Durangos: eight campaigns, including a critical steering bind or failure, loss of engine power, a loose side curtain airbag bolt, a stability control warning light that may not work, a blank backup camera, and three separate rear spoiler recalls. Owner complaints reach 199, unverified reports to NHTSA, with exterior lighting at 90, far ahead of electrical at 40 and engine at 22. Nine crashes, four fires and five injuries were reported.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Run a VIN recall check; eight campaigns apply, three on the spoiler
3. Feel for steering binding or heaviness at low speed while test driving
4. Verify the rear spoiler is secure and the backup camera displays
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Dodge dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
